"Jiaojiao, haven't you been working at a low level in your brother's company recently? How come you haven't changed your arrogant personality after all the hardships? Why do you still speak so carelessly?"
Zhou Shutong shook her head.
Chu Yujiao raised her charming face arrogantly and looked at Gu Xiwan with a crooked eyebrow.
"Mom, I'm just speaking from a practical point of view. It's not that I'm arrogant, but that you elevate some people too high, and I can't stand it."
"You kid!"
Zhou Shutong had no intention of continuing to quarrel with Chu Yujiao. She turned her eyes to Gu Xiwan and said worriedly,
"Wanwan, do you want to give it a try?"
"Um."
Gu Xiwan nodded without hesitation, stood up and walked towards the restaurant.
By this time, the chef had already put dinner on the table——
There are a dozen kinds of various dishes in total, with a reasonable combination of meat and vegetables, and all kinds of ingredients are fresh and high-end.
However, Gu Xiwan's eyes swept across the dining table, but her appetite was not aroused, let alone Chu Lingjue, who had extremely picky tastes.
So, Gu Xiwan decided to cook herself a bowl of noodles for Chu Lingjue.
When Gu Xiwan walked into the kitchen, the chef who was working in the kitchen was shocked.
"Young lady, the smell of oil smoke in the kitchen is too strong. You are pregnant now, how can you come to a place like this? If you need any food or tableware, just ask me and I will get it for you."
Gu Xiwan smiled easily,
"I want to make a bowl of clear noodle soup myself for Ling Jue to eat. Can you help me prepare the side dishes?"
"ah?!"
The chef was obviously startled.
You know, it was precisely because Mr. Chu’s stomach was not easy to take care of that the housekeeper hired her as a chef from the five-star hotel——
Mr. Chu is a man of few desires. In normal times, Mr. Chu is not very interested in the dishes carefully prepared by her, a top chef. But when Mr. Chu is in a bad mood and goes on a hunger strike, no matter what delicacies she cooks, it will not help.
Mrs. Chu actually wants to pry Mr. Chu's appetite with a bowl of clear noodle soup?
impossible!
However, Gu Xiwan is the mistress of this family after all. There are some things that a chef can think about but cannot say, so she still said respectfully,
"Okay, young lady, if you need me to do anything, just ask me."
With the help of the chef, Gu Xiwan prepared a bowl of clear soup noodles in about ten minutes.
Gu Xiwan also cooked for Chu Lingjue when she first got married. She knew that Chu Lingjue's taste was bland, and when Chu Lingjue was in a bad mood, he didn't even want to taste meat.
Therefore, Gu Xiwan did not put oil in this bowl of noodles.
Boil the noodles in water and add only a few mushrooms and a few rapeseeds as side dishes.
"Chef, thank you."
After thanking the chef, Gu Xiwan personally carried the bowl and walked out of the kitchen.
Looking at Gu Xiwan's graceful figure, the chef couldn't help but shake his head.
She couldn't bear to break the young lady's fantasy, but Mr. Chu would never touch this bowl of noodles!
At this time, Chu Yujiao and Zhou Shutong were sitting at the dining table eating together.
Seeing Gu Xiwan walking out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles, Chu Yujiao immediately dropped her chopsticks and came forward. She put her nose to the bowl and smelled it, then winked exaggeratedly and said,
"vomit!
what is this? The smell is disgusting. Even if your cat eats the food you made, it won't touch it, right? Do you just want to fool my brother with this? "
Gu Xiwan only thought about Chu Lingjue in her heart. She didn't bother to waste time with Chu Yujiao and said lightly,
"Go away and stop causing trouble."
"cut!"
Chu Yujiao helplessly made way for Gu Xiwan. When she saw Gu Xiwan walking straight towards Chu Lingjue's study, she smiled arrogantly and said,
"I will go with you."
With that said, he spread his slender legs and followed Gu Xiwan's footsteps.
Gu Xiwan looked back at Chu Yujiao in surprise.
Chu Yujiao raised her lips proudly,
"I want to see you make a fool of yourself, don't you?"
Gu Xiwan shook her head speechlessly and continued to walk forward.
The door of Chu Lingjue's study room was ajar.
Gu Xiwan was holding the bowl with both hands. She was about to free up one hand to open the door. Chu Yujiao, who couldn't wait to see Gu Xiwan hit the wall, had already diligently opened the door for her and said evilly,
"Please come in!"
Gu Xiwan walked in and saw Chu Lingjue standing in front of the study window the next second.
Your two small windows were open, and you didn't know what Chu Lingjue was thinking at this moment. Even though Gu Xiwan and Chu Yujiao had walked in, he, who was always extremely alert, didn't even notice.
it's getting dark.
The closer Gu Xiwan walked to Chu Lingjue, the more she felt the biting cold wind blowing from the window. His black hair and top were blown uncontrollably, and the flying curtains cast dim light and shadow on him. At this moment, Looking at his lonely figure, Gu Xiwan suddenly felt a stabbing pain in her heart.
"Chu Lingjue."
Gu Xiwan called his name softly.
Only then did Chu Lingjue realize that someone was coming.
He turned to look at Gu Xiwan. The sadness shrouded in his icy eyes was too late for him to completely suppress. However, seeing Gu Xiwan's pretty face, he still forced a smile on the corner of his mouth and said lightly,
"I'm not hungry, just take care of you and our children, don't worry about me."
Chu Lingjue's appearance of forcing a smile on Gu Xiwan's face despite his heavy heart made Gu Xiwan feel even more distressed.
She put the bowl of clear soup noodles on Chu Lingjue's desk, smiled gently,
"I know you don't want to eat now, but you haven't eaten all day... I made this bowl of noodles for you myself. Do you want to try it?"
In the past, Chu Lingjue always obeyed Gu Xiwan's orders.
However, Chu Lingjue really didn't have any appetite at this moment, so he didn't even look at the bowl of noodles, but said coldly,
"I appreciate your kindness, but I'm really not hungry."
this……
Gu Xiwan was slightly disappointed.
Chu Yujiao, who was standing behind Gu Xiwan, raised her lips proudly.
really!
Just as she expected!
Although Gu Xiwan was disappointed, she couldn't bear to see Chu Lingjue continue like this, so she picked up a small rapeseed in the bowl with her chopsticks and said,
"Mom asked me to feed you. If you don't eat, I have no choice but to follow mom's instructions!"
With that said, he held the little rapeseed with his chopsticks and walked towards Chu Lingjue.
"..." Seeing this scene, Chu Yujiao covered her mouth tightly with her hands to prevent herself from laughing.
Gu Xiwan, a bitch, doesn’t understand Brother Ling Jue too well!
At this time, Chu Lingjue was jealous when he saw the food as if he were his enemy. In the past, when Chu Lingjue was on hunger strike, Chu Yujiao and her mother had forcibly fed Chu Lingjue, which made Chu Lingjue thunderous. Angry and frustrated?
By doing this, Gu Xiwan was simply taking the initiative to hit the muzzle of the gun!
Just wanting to see Gu Xiwan make a fool of herself, Chu Yujiao watched this scene unblinkingly.
Sure enough, when Gu Xiwan forcibly brought the small rapeseed to Chu Lingjue's mouth, Chu Lingjue's eyebrows were drawn with a clear "Sichuan" pattern like an ink painting.
He said coldly and calmly,
"I'm really not hungry... Wu——"
Chu Lingjue's voice was interrupted by his own scream, because Gu Xiwan had already taken advantage of him to speak and stuffed the small rapeseed into his mouth.
