She stood up and said, “Then I’ll go cook.”
With that, she walked towards the kitchen.
In an instant, only the two of them were left on the sofa in the living room.
Zhong Shenghao hugged the pillow and looked at Yuting with a fawning smile.
Shi Yuting shot him a disgusted look and turned towards the kitchen.
Something flashed through his mind. He stood up and followed Weiyi.
In the kitchen, Zuo Weiyi was looking for some ingredients in the fridge.
“Prepare the ingredients slowly. I’m going out to buy something.”
“Buy what?”
“Seasoning for Zhong Shenghao.”
Zuo Weiyi frowned.
She looked at the various seasonings on the kitchen counter. There was no lack of them.
While she was confused, Shi Yuting had already left.
He said to Zhong Shenghao, “Help me keep an eye on her. I’m going out for a while.”
“What are you doing?” he asked casually.
Shi Yuting curled his lips. “Buying condiments.”
“Oh.”
Zhong Shenghao only looked away after Yuting’s figure completely disappeared at the door.
He wondered if it was his imagination, but why did he feel that Yuting’s smile just now was a little strange?
‘Forget it, I’d better go check on the ingredients that Weiyi is preparing.’
As he said that, he threw down the pillow, got up, and rushed to the kitchen.
He saw Zuo Weiyi washing three tomatoes, some shiitake mushrooms, and some chicken by the kitchen counter.
“Weiyi, do you want me to help you?”
Although he knew that there was absolutely no objection to his freeloading, it didn’t seem right for him to just sit there. He still had to be polite.
Zuo Weiyi turned around and smiled at him. “It’s fine. You can go watch TV.”
“Really?” he asked again.
Zuo Weiyi stared at him. “Do you know how to cut vegetables?”
“Uh, no.”
Well, as expected, there was no use for him.
He returned to the living room. Not long after, Shi Nuannuan came back. “Brother Shenghao, why are you here?”
Zhong Shenghao smiled. “I’m freeloading. What about you?”
“I went to see Grandpa and Mommy!” As she spoke, she heard sounds from the kitchen. “Is Sister-in-Law in the kitchen?”
“Yes.”
“I’ll go and take a look!”
As soon as she entered the kitchen, she saw that Zuo Weiyi had already washed and cut the ingredients.
“Wow, Sister-in-Law, are you going to cook noodles again?” Nuannuan still had an aftertaste of the noodles she had eaten the last time!
“Yes.” Zuo Weiyi smiled at her. “You’re back.”
“Yup!” Shi Nuannuan responded. Then, her eyes became fixed on the ingredients in the pot, drooling.
Twenty minutes later, Shi Yuting came back.
Zuo Weiyi’s noodles were just about ready.
Four bowls of steaming, fragrant noodles were out of the pot. Just looking at them made people drool.
In the living room, Zhong Shenghao couldn’t help but rush into the dining room. The bowls, chopsticks, and noodles were already set up.
Shi Yuting and Zuo Weiyi’s seats were fixed, and Shi Nuannuan had always sat opposite to Zuo Weiyi, so Zhong Shenghao’s seat was naturally next to Nuannuan’s.
When he sat down, Zhong Shenghao was surprised to find that his bowl was actually bigger than the others’.
He couldn’t help but look up with a hint of joy in his eyes. “This is…”
“Your sister-in-law is rewarding you. Eat it,” Shi Yuting said without batting an eyelid. After saying that, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
Zhong Shenghao naturally didn’t stand on ceremony. He smiled at Zuo Weiyi. “Thank you in advance, Sister-in-Law!”
