When Cao Ning returned home, she did not see Xia Shihan in the living room. Instead, there was a clanking sound coming from the kitchen.
Smelling the smell of oil smoke spreading in the air, Cao Ning immediately understood what was going on.
When I walked to the kitchen door, I saw a slender figure busy inside.
She was wearing a light blue apron, holding a spatula in one hand and a pot lid in the other, hiding far away from the stove.
Listening to the sizzling sound in the pot, Xia Shihan nervously stir-fried it twice with a spatula.
Bang!!!
"ah!!!"
The splash of oil in the oil pan scared Xia Shihan and she quickly backed away, but she fell into Cao Ning's arms.
"Hey, big bear, are you back?"
Xia Shihan looked dullly at Cao Ning, who had a smile on her face. She was stunned for a moment when the sound of frying oil came from the pot again.
"Big bear, big bear, hurry up, hurry up, help me see what's going on with the oil pan?"
Why is it always against me?"
Xia Shihan pursed her lips and pulled Cao Ning forward carefully.
"Hey, hey, big bear, don't get so close, the oil will splash on you."
"fine!"
Cao Ning stepped forward and pressed the switch of the range hood. The running range hood immediately sucked out the fumes that filled the room.
Strangely enough, after Cao Ning turned on the range hood, there was no sound of frying oil coming from the pot.
"It's okay now. It was because there was water in the pot that the oil splashed."
Cao Ning grabbed Xia Shihan's little hand and put it on his chest distressedly.
"Shihan, didn't you agree that I would buy something delicious?
Why are you cooking by yourself again?
Besides, you have never been in the kitchen since you were a child. What if you get injured?
I'll do it, and you can go sit in the living room obediently."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...not good!"
Xia Shihan muttered and shook her head like a rattle.
"I saw that you haven't come back, so I wanted to give it a try.
Who knew that this guy was not friendly at all and bullied me just because I was a newcomer.
Hehe, it doesn't matter, I already know how to use it now."
As she spoke, Xia Shihan pushed Cao Ning outside.
"Big bear, you go out, you go out, I want to cook dinner quietly by myself.
Don't interrupt my performance."
"Hey, hey, hey, Shihan, Shihan, are you sure you can do it...or else I'll just stand aside and watch and say nothing?"
"Humph, that won't work either, you have no credibility in what you say!
You said before that you were just trying to get in, but what happened? You are a big liar, get out, get out..."
"Hey, hey, Shihan... the pot, the pot is smoking..."
Cao Ning couldn't stand the strong Xia Shihan and chased her away, and was eventually kicked out by her.
Cao Ning had no choice but to sit at the dining table and look at the cautious Xia Shihan inside. Although she was very reluctant to let go, she could not defeat her.
"Salt, salt...Shihan, it's time to add salt!"
"Oh, you stinky bear, please don't talk... I, I, I, can I not put some salt in it... Hey, which of the jars here is salt?"
"The jar with Bald Qiang printed on it contains salt..."
"I know, I know, hum, big bear, don't say anything. How can I still not know which one is salt? Don't affect my performance!"
"..."
Cao Ning sighed and covered his face with his big hands. He wanted to laugh but couldn't.
But looking at Xia Shihan who was busy in the kitchen, Cao Ning still felt very warm at this moment.
As the supreme master of the underworld!
She is willing to let go of her halo and work hard to be a good wife, which is a very touching thing in itself.
But for some reason, Cao Ning felt as if he was being pricked by a needle the more he watched Xia Shihan silently sacrifice for him.
Maybe it’s because you feel you don’t deserve it!
I don't know how long it took, but Xia Shihan walked out of the kitchen with a small plate in her hand.
The food inside was pitch black, a bit like potato cubes with soy sauce.
Although Xia Shihan was a little embarrassed, she always had an excited smile on her face.
"Big Bear, please try it!"
Xia Shihan patted her chest confidently, and then quickly handed over a pair of chopsticks.
"How about it, am I great?
Let me just say, there is nothing difficult about cooking!
Who am I? I am...ah, big bear, why are you still crying?
Oh, good baby, don’t cry. My sister is here.”
Xia Shihan held Cao Ning in her arms, but was pushed away by Cao Ning, who had a flat mouth.
"Shihan, I don't want you to take advantage of others."
Cao Ning rolled his eyes, wiped his eyes subconsciously and explained, "Maybe it was just because of the fumes."
As he said that, Cao Ning suddenly stood up and looked at Xia Shihan with pain.
He casually brushed a strand of hair hanging on her cheek behind her ear.
"Shihan, you have lost weight..."
"Oh, big bear, don't worry about whether I am thin or not. You should try it first. This is my first time cooking."
Xia Shihan didn't have time to flirt with Cao Ning right now.
She forced Cao Ning's hand and thrust the chopsticks directly into his hand.
"Try how it tastes!"
"Forehead..."
Cao Ning looked at the plate of dark potato chunks on the table and subconsciously swallowed nervously.
In terms of appearance alone, it does look like sticky pieces of coal.
"Shihan, actually it's good if you have the heart to do it. As for whether to taste it or not, I...I think, I think it's not particularly important."
"Okay, Big Bear, do you dislike my cooking???
Humph, no, you have to eat even if you don’t want to eat. If you don’t eat, you won’t be able to sleep in my bed tonight.”
"Ah... Shihan, don't be so cruel. This is not in line with the country's policy of implementing the three stations... Okay, okay, I can't eat it!"
Cao Ning smacked his mouth in embarrassment, sighed helplessly, and picked up a small piece.
"No, it's rare for me to cook, how can you be so disrespectful?
Well, if you want to eat, just eat big pieces!
Forget it, let me feed you!"
With that said, Xia Shihan grabbed the chopsticks and picked the largest potato piece.
"Come on, ah~ open your mouth...that's right, you are a good child if you eat well."
Cao Ning had no choice but to suppress the repulsion in his heart, closed his eyes and opened his mouth.
Sure enough, it's just as expected.
The moment I first imported it, it was as if a wet briquette was suddenly stuffed into my mouth.
The bitterness is punctuated by a salty taste, just like eating a mouthful of salt.
But when she thought that this was Xia Shihan's first time cooking, in order not to dampen her enthusiasm, she had to bite the bullet and swallow it.
"Well, Shihan... the dishes you cook are indeed different. You can almost catch up with the chefs of five-star hotels."
"Hmph, big bear, you are talking nonsense!
You swallowed it without even chewing it. How do you know it tastes good?
No, you have to eat another piece!"
Xia Shihan quit, she pouted and angrily picked up another piece, and carefully handed it to Cao Ning's mouth.
"Be good, open your mouth, ah~"
"No, Shihan, why are you paying back, why are you still eating..."
Cao Ning instantly turned into a sad face!
When he thought of the bitter taste, he felt uneasy in his heart.
"Huh, stinky bear, I worked so hard to cook it for you, shouldn't you eat it all?
Besides, is the food I cook so unpalatable? Look at your bitter face, huh, you don’t give me any face at all.
I think you just eat too much good food and don't realize that food is hard to come by.
Be good, take another small bite..."
Xia Shihan was not convinced and put it directly to Cao Ning's mouth.
Cao Ning tried to retreat, but couldn't help Xia Shihan and kept following him.
