"Jessica, help our new roommate unload the luggage."
Jessica's face turned dark. Do you think I'm the good guy? Why don't you do it yourself?
But she just thought about it. If it had been anyone else instead of Richard - even her old employers, Jessica would have quit long ago. But now Jessica only angrily
She glanced at him and then began to help Gwen carry her luggage "enthusiastically".
After moving all Gwen's things into her room and tidying up briefly, the matter was settled. It was almost time for dinner, and Richard walked into the kitchen and started thinking about today's recipe.
Now that there are more people and more mouths to open, the dinner is visually richer.
After packing her things, Gwen appeared at the door of the kitchen and said hesitantly: "...Mr. Li, are you going to make dinner?"
"Huh?" Richard, who was thinking, turned his head, "Yeah, what's the matter? If you have anything in particular that you want to eat, you can tell me."
"I think I can help." Gwen said, "I'm a little bit good at cooking..."
Richard was immediately impressed by this girl. Then he glanced at Jessica intentionally or unintentionally.
Look, underage girls can cook. Isn’t it embarrassing for a grown-up like you to have never even touched a spatula?
Jessica had been enjoying the show in the back, but she didn't expect that the anger would suddenly turn on her.
What’s wrong if you’ve never cooked? Do you have no human rights if you don’t know how to cook?
"No need." Richard waved his hand and declined Gwen's offer.
Gwen thought for a moment and then asked: "Then...I heard from Miss Jones that we still need to pay for food, right?"
"It's okay, it's not that important." Richard waved his hand grandly, "This little detail doesn't matter."
After all, Gwen is still a child, so she deserves some special treatment.
Jessica almost became angry. I have no objection to paying for food, but why doesn’t she have to pay? Is it because she is prettier than me?
Thinking of this section, Jessica suddenly realized something. She looked at Richard with a surprised look, then pulled him aside mysteriously and reminded him in a low voice: "Boss, I...
..I just said it casually. This girl must be really underage."
Richard was stunned for a moment and didn't respond: "I know, so what's going on?"
Seeing that he didn't care, Jessica's face suddenly changed slightly: "Boss, although I generally don't comment on other people's personal preferences, I have to remind you that it is illegal to be underage...
..."
Richard suddenly understood.
So Jessica thought that Richard liked Gwen's type, so she gave her such preferential treatment?
No, judging by her tone, it seemed that Richard's image in her mind had degenerated into someone with evil tastes and evil intentions.
Richard rolled his eyes: "What are you thinking about? Do you think I am that kind of person?"
Jessica looked carefully and said seriously: "I haven't observed it carefully before, but now that you say it, it seems a bit like..."
"..."
Okay, all joking aside, Jessica is actually quite confident in Richard's character. She believes that Richard is not the kind of guy with vulgar tastes.
Richard returned to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator and began to check what ingredients were left in it. Unknowingly, the food reserve in the refrigerator seemed to have bottomed out again. Jessica looked slim on the outside and had long legs, but when it came to eating, her fighting ability was poor.
It's surprisingly surprising. I don't know if it's because of her special physique or because of the money she paid, but her monthly food expenses are definitely enough for her and she even makes a profit.
The most irritating thing is that this guy seems to be unable to gain weight no matter how much he eats. If word of this talent spreads, he will be envied, jealous, and hated by many women.
If there were three people, there wouldn't be enough ingredients left tonight. Richard closed the refrigerator, thought for a while, and decided to go out and buy some ingredients to replenish his inventory.
Gwen noticed his intention: "Mr. Li, are you going to buy ingredients?"
"Don't be so formal, just call me Richard." Richard waved his hand, "Yes, we don't have enough stuff at home. Just wait a moment, I'll be back soon."
"Then why don't you let me go? You tell me what you want to buy, and I will act quickly." Gwen said.
Jessica's monthly rent is already quite low, and Gwen even only needs to pay half of her monthly rent. The little girl herself seems to feel that she is taking too much advantage, and she will be even more embarrassed if she spends all day freeloading, so
She wanted to help as much as possible.
Anyway, she happens to be good at running errands or something.
Richard felt that this girl was more pleasing to his eyes. She was so sensible at such a young age, and she would definitely be a good and virtuous woman in the future. She was in stark contrast to the strange girl next to him who didn't pay attention to her image and had a bad temper.
By this time, Jessica had gone back to her room. Suddenly her nose itched and she sneezed.
Jessica rubbed her nose. Was she afraid that her boss was speaking ill of her again behind her back?
But she thought to herself that she didn't say anything or do anything this time. Could she have been shot just lying down?
"No, I can just go by myself." Richard said, "I prefer to pick the ingredients myself."
"Then let me go with you." Gwen insisted, "I can also learn how you choose."
At this time, Richard had no reason to refuse, so he simply accepted her kindness. So Gwen followed him out of the door, and the two of them, one large and one small, walked on the street, carrying their own shopping bags, feeling
It’s like a brother and sister rushing to go shopping for a sale.
Richard came to the butcher shop where he often went to buy meat. The butcher who sold the meat was also a Chinese, surnamed Wang. As soon as Richard came in, he smiled and said: "Xiao Li, what do you want to order today? Do you want ribs?"
"
Richard waved his hand and said directly in Mandarin: "No. Today I want to cut ten pounds of meat into minced meat. Don't see any fat on it."
Uncle Wang was stunned for a moment: "Okay."
After finishing it, he asked if he needed to put it into separate bags. Richard smiled and said: "No, if you want another ten pounds, it will be fat. Don't see some sperm on it, and you have to cut it into jelly."
Uncle Wang squinted his eyes. Do you really think I’m uneducated and haven’t read Water Margin? I haven’t read the book and the TV series. Who hasn’t watched it?
Are we afraid that we should start making gestures next?
However, Master Wang was still cooperative and asked: "The fine squid can be used to wrap wontons, so what's the use of this fat one?"
"Make meatballs."
"Then later, do you want ten pounds of golden cartilage to be chopped into pieces without some meat on top?"
"clever."
"So what's the use?"
Richard plausibly said: "I will make flesh and blood."
