Chapter 46: I’ll Teach You… (1/2)

The Royal Fried Rice Pancake lived up to its name as the world’s number one delicacy crafted by Shen Lingyao.

Zhao Qingfeng almost chipped his teeth eating it.

Shen Lingyao couldn’t believe it was that unpalatable, so she tried a bite herself.

Only after she spat it out did she admit to Zhao Qingfeng, “It’s really hard… Okay, I’ll let you off this time. Wait until my cooking skills improve, and then you must eat it all!”

“By the way, you said something about your cousin inviting you to an internet café for an all-nighter?”

“Tell you what, you are not going. This is a crucial time, and you think of relaxing after just improving by a hundred points?”

“You are also not allowed to go to the provincial city. You don’t need to earn money.”

“Unless you give me a very valid reason.”

Shen Lingyao least wanted Zhao Qingfeng to go to the provincial city.

Apart from the long journey, she was also worried about him contacting Liu Ruoxin again.

Just the thought of Liu Ruoxin infuriated Shen Lingyao.

That woman.

Daring to come to her territory and compete for her man?

She vowed to deal with her harshly the next time they met.

Zhao Qingfeng explained earnestly.

He only mentioned going to the provincial city to earn money for the family, “Yaoyao, my mom is unemployed, there’s no income at home, and the compensation hasn’t come through. We need money for food and drink, right? Plus, I just need to go a few more times to save enough to buy a computer, and then I can start my own business.”

Shen Lingyao didn’t believe the self-employment story.

But Zhao Qingfeng assured her well and explained his reason for going to the internet café, “If I don’t go, they will definitely make a fuss. Anyway, I’m not influenced by the environment; I can study anywhere. Don’t worry, I can still get good grades in the internet café.”

After saying it many times, Shen Lingyao finally reluctantly agreed.

She actually wanted to go to the provincial city to have a look, but staying overnight was definitely not allowed by her parents.

So she made Zhao Qingfeng swear not to meet Liu Ruoxin.

“I’m not really worried about you two dating.”

“It’s mainly because the university entrance exam is approaching, and you can’t let a girl distract you.”

“I have so many suitors, and I can resist the temptation.”

“As my personal guard, you naturally have to be on the same page with me.”

“If you really like her, at least wait until after graduation to pursue her…”

Her voice noticeably softened as she said the last sentence.

Even though Zhao Qingfeng repeatedly assured her that he had already cut off all ties with Liu Ruoxin, a young girl’s heart seemed to work that way.

Zhao Qingfeng made several promises, “Don’t worry, I will never have any relationship with that woman for the rest of my life. Besides, she shamelessly chased after me. How could I, being so handsome, fall for her?”

“Really?” Shen Lingyao asked.

“Of course!” Zhao Qingfeng nodded.

“I don’t believe it, unless… unless you cook for me. You dislike my cooking, so why don’t you make a delicacy yourself? What are you looking at? Dare not to go, I’ll pinch you!”

In just a few words,

Zhao Qingfeng was coerced by Shen Lingyao into the kitchen.

The pot was a blackened mess, the whole house reeked of burnt food, leaving Zhao Qingfeng utterly dumbfounded.

He grimly cleaned and washed up.

Shen Lingyao clumsily helped with the dishes, accidentally knocking over two plates.

“So clumsy!”

“Whoever marries you is going to starve to death!”

“Never mind, I’ll kindly teach you how to cook today. Give me your hand, I’ll teach you personally!”

Zhao Qingfeng secretly plotted in his mind.

Shen Lingyao was also delighted.

She felt like they were a couple who had just started living together.

She even fantasized about how wonderful it would be if her parents returned in a month or half a year, wondering if something sweet might happen between them then.

“Ah!”

Lost in thought, Shen Lingyao felt Zhao Qingfeng grabbing her hand and picking up the pot.

But.

It was really not suitable for two people to work side by side in the cramped kitchen.

Zhao Qingfeng simply stood behind Shen Lingyao, embracing her from behind, holding her delicate hands.

This was probably their first intimate hug, causing Shen Lingyao to tremble, her face instantly flushing red.

“Watch closely.”
