"I'm learning how to make Chinese food . " His simple answer left Huo Mian dumbfounded .
"You, you, you… Why are you learning how to make Chinese food? I can cook . " Huo Mian thought that the food she made tasted good enough, so they were fine as long as she knew how to cook . Qin Chu had been in the United States for the last seven years, so to him, learning how to cook Chinese cuisine was like starting from the beginning . It was too much of a hassle .
"Don't you like Chinese?"
"But I know how to make it," Huo Mian answered helplessly .
"Sometimes you get off work late, and you're tired and hungry . I get off work early and have time anyways," Qin Chu said slowly as he plated a pan of mushroom stir-fry .
The delicious smell of food overwhelmed her senses, and Huo Mian's eyes became misty .
She was extremely touched by his gesture…
The truth was, it wasn't a big deal for a husband to cook a meal for his wife . However, Qin Chu wasn't just any husband; he was GK's CEO, a man who was always super busy and would kill for there to be 72 hours in a day .
GK had seven branch companies, each a leader in their respective industry . Qin Chu had to sit through at least 4 to 5 hours of meetings every day .
However, he still managed to make it home from work on time and cook her dinner . How could she not be touched?
"Go wash your hands and change out of your clothes, dinner is ready . "
Silent, Huo Mian went upstairs and changed into a set of loungewear . Then, she washed her hands .
By the time she sat down by the dining table, she saw that four dishes and one soup were already set on the table before her . She could tell by looking at the color of the dishes that they would definitely taste good .
"The food looks delicious," Huo Mian exclaimed as she looked at all the food in front of her .
Steamed bass, mushroom pork stir-fry, bitter melon stir-fry, and braised pork ribs . He even made clam soup!
Qin Chu picked up a bowl, filled it with clam soup, and handed it to her .
"Thank you . "
Huo Mian took a little sip and gave him a thumbs-up, "This is delicious, I don't even know how to make clam soup, how did you manage it?"
"The company's chef taught me . His food tastes good, so I asked him . "
"Wow, chefs from big corporations sure are different from the rest of us . " Huo Mian smiled .
This was Qin Chu's first time cooking, so Huo Mian had a bowl and a half of rice, much more than she usually ate .
In the end, she still couldn't help but say, "If I weren't afraid of gaining weight, I would've had another bowl . "
"Don't worry about it, I don't care if you're fat . "
"But I do, I don't want to gain too much weight . " Huo Mian battered her eyelashes with an adorable expression on her face .
Qin Chu looked at Huo Mian as a feeling of satisfaction overwhelmed his heart . All he wanted with Huo Mian was simple happiness .
The next morning, after Huo Mian arrived at South Side Recuperation Center and changed into her uniform . She then went and measured the blood pressure of the old man in room 2 .
"Sir, you need to take it easy these days and no more sneaking in desserts . Your blood sugar is higher than before . "
"I got it . Hey kid, if you're not busy, let's play some chess again . " The patient's expression lit up with anticipation . Ever since he found out that Huo Mian was skilled in chess, he kept asking her to play with him .
"Sure, but you'll have to wait; I have to administer an IV for the 'young master' in the other room first . "
Then, Huo Mian went back to the on-call station, gathered some prescribed medicine, and headed towards room 1 .
His bodyguards all seemed to be having breakfast; the one left to guard the door was busy sending WeChat messages on his phone . He didn't even notice it when Huo Mian opened the door to go in .
Huo Mian went in after knocking on the door…
The scene that confronted her embarrassed her to the max .
A beautiful woman with a smoking-hot body was having an intimate moment with Su Yu; she had taken her clothes off and her actions were incredibly flirtatious .
Huo Mian's sudden appearance scared the woman, and she immediately pulled her clothes back on in a panic .
"Um… Sorry, you guys continue," Huo Mian said as she turned around to leave .
"Huo Mian, get the f*ck back in here," Su Yu blustered loudly .
