Gu An'an didn't want to speak directly, so she stretched out her hand after watching Huo Siting finish beating the scales off the fish.
"Mr. Huo, the scales are shaved off, now..."
Huo Siting said calmly: "I know, remove the internal organs, right?"
The man's voice was deep and pleasant, the sleeves of his shirt were rolled up, revealing the strong lines of his arms, and the obsidian gemstone cufflinks shone with a steady light.
Huo Siting held a Japanese kitchen knife in his hand, with a long and sharp blade.
The man holds it in his hand, and the picture is very eye-catching.
However, when he cut the fish belly cleanly with a knife, the green bile in the internal organs also slowly came out...
Gu Anan's breathing stopped for a moment as he watched the fish's gut burst.
The next second.
Before Huo Siting could react, the fish under his hand had been snatched away by Gu Anan, and all the bile that emerged was washed away in the pool.
Then, Gu Anan glanced at him and said:
"Well, Mr. Huo, the ingredients have been processed and nothing happens without you. Why don't you go out first?"
Huo Siting: "..."
Although Gu Anan pretends to be very good, she is still young after all.
The man could almost clearly read the inexplicable disgust on her little face.
Huo Siting's mood is a bit complicated. He has always been the only one who dislikes others. Who would have thought that one day the reverse would happen?!
He didn't bother to ask for trouble, so he responded calmly.
"okay, I get it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man turned and left.
Gu Anan stayed in the kitchen alone. Even if he couldn't move one leg, his efficiency was much higher than when Huo Siting intervened just now.
However, probably because there were too many things on his mind, Gu Anan inexplicably thought of the things he experienced in the ward during the day.
The momentary loss of concentration caused Gu Anan's fingers to ache.
The sharp blade caused her to accidentally cut a small gash.
Fortunately, the wound was not too deep. Gu Anan rinsed it with water and warned herself to focus more on cooking and not to be distracted.
In less than an hour, she finished three dishes and one soup. Not only were they delicious, delicious, but also the presentation was exquisite.
"How about it?"
Seeing Huo Siting move his chopsticks and take a bite, Gu Anan became a little nervous.
She cooks for her own pleasure, but since she shows her hand, she definitely wants to be recognized by the other party.
However, with a status like Huo Siting's, he must have tasted a lot of delicacies, and he didn't know if they would be to his liking...
"Not bad." Huo Siting's voice was calm, "Not inferior to the five-star chefs outside."
The rating is so high?
Before Gu Anan could feel happy, the man suddenly said: "But, there is one thing..."
Her heart tightened again.
"Except the fish skin tastes a bit bad." Huo Siting said expressionlessly, his tone very serious.
Gu Anan: "..."
She originally thought that a man like Huo Siting was inhumane, but she didn't expect that he could be so humorous.
After all, he handled the fish skin part with his own hands.
No matter how much Gu Anan wanted to appear more reserved, she couldn't help but laugh out loud at this moment.
Feeling the man's deep gaze suddenly glance over, Gu Anan felt guilty again and quickly covered her mouth.
"I just thought of something funny..."
She wanted to say something else, but the man's expression changed again and asked: "What's wrong with your hand?"
Gu Anan didn't expect that he would notice his hand.
She put her hand away and explained: "It's nothing, it's just that I'm not used to using the knife, so I accidentally made a cut..."
Huo Siting stood up.
"I'll get the medical kit and bandage you."
Gu Anan waved his hand, "The wound has almost healed, it's nothing."
"Really?" The man only raised his eyebrows.
He turned around and left, and not long after, he returned with a simple medical kit.
Gu Anan's wound wasn't too deep, but it wasn't too shallow either. The knife was very sharp, and the cut was not obvious on the outside. After applying the potion, it was excruciating pain.
"hiss--"
Gu Anan couldn't help but gasp, feeling that the potion was like poison, corroding his flesh and blood bit by bit.
The man's brows and eyes were deeply contoured, showing a cold and sharp edge, as if they were distant mountains separated by mist, just out of reach.
However, now that the two of them are so close, Gu Anan can feel the aura around him wrapping around him...
Boom, boom, boom.
Dong Dong Dong Dong.
Her heartbeat was beating uncontrollably and she lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the man in front of her.
Huo Siting didn't pay attention to Gu Anan's little thoughts. After the disinfection was completed, a piece of band-aid was rolled up on Gu Anan's little finger.
"alright."
He straightened up and distanced himself from Gu Anan.
She just felt a little empty and said quickly: "Mr. Huo, hurry up and eat. If the food is cold, it won't taste good..."
As if to remind herself, she picked up the bowl in front of her, wishing she could hide her face behind it.
Huo Siting was also about to return to his seat.
Just at this time.
"Jingle Bell--"
A phone rang, breaking the atmosphere at the dinner table.
Huo Siting glanced at the display on the screen and answered the phone, "Hello?"
Gu Anan raised her head, feeling a little curious, but the man stood up together, hurriedly walked outside, and picked up the suit jacket hanging aside.
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he left in a hurry, and the man's slender back disappeared.
She was alone in the huge apartment.
Gu Anan only ate a few bites of food in a hurry, then returned to the room and huddled up in a ball with the light on.
She stayed up all night, and when it got slightly brighter, she breathed a sigh of relief, left a note for the man, and prepared to go home and pack her things.
As soon as she arrived at the Gu family villa, she saw the door open from a distance, and people coming in and out were carrying something and throwing it into the yard...
