Su Wan said bluntly, “I think you’re the happy one. I don’t feel any joy at all.”
“You’re forcing yourself to pretend. You must be overjoyed.”
Jing Chen was stubborn. His hands did not stop moving, as if he was competing with the rest of the vegetables, trying to cut them better.
But in Su Wan’s eyes, this was nothing.
Su Wan reached out to Jing Chen again and said, “Give me the knife. Don’t struggle anymore. Some things are still about talent. It’s not embarrassing that you don’t have talent in cooking.”
Seeing that Jing Chen stopped what he was doing, Su Wan immediately took the knife from his hand and comforted him. “Go and wipe the table. You can eat in a while. Otherwise, I have to clean up.”
“You didn’t wipe the table last time?” Jing Chen automatically ignored the first half and focused on the second half, looking incredulous.
Su Wan explained helplessly, “It’s not that I don’t want to wipe it. I was too busy last time and forgot. Go quickly. I just realized it too.”
“You’ll definitely regret losing me. It’s so boring to cook alone. Isn’t it good to have someone to accompany you?”
Jing Chen muttered and walked out.
She looked defeated.
But this did not affect Jing Chen’s mood. After all, he knew very well how good he was at cooking.
And because of this, Su Wan’s emotions immediately fluctuated.
It was boring to cook alone. She didn’t think so in the past when she was cooking. When she was cooking with Jing Chen just now, athough many unhappy things happened during the process, Su Wan didn’t resist it from the bottom of her heart.
She was even a little happy.
In life after marriage, if cooking was the sweetness of two people and not the burden of one person, this was undoubtedly what every couple yearned for and looked forward to.
Su Wan was no exception.
She did not know what she would become in the future, but for now, she was very satisfied.
Su Wan was still in a daze as she watched Jing Chen wipe the table carefully.
Jing Chen had never done such a thing since he was young. Even his clothes were taken care of by the nanny at home.
Su Wan walked out with a plate of dishes and placed them on the table seriously. She smiled at Jing Chen and said, “Let’s go. Do something you can do. Come with me to serve the dishes.”
“Okay, honey.” Jing Chen agreed without hesitation with a smile on his face.
Su Wan saw that he reached out and picked up the bottom of the plate. He didn’t let go at all. Instead, she taught him patiently, “There’s a ledge under this plate. It won’t burn your hand if you hold it.”
Jing Chen did as he was told and sighed. “Fortunately, I have you. Otherwise, I would have been prepared to burn my hand while bringing it over.”
Su Wan snorted. However, when she saw Jing Chen’s back view as he carefully carried it out, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes.
Even if Jing Chen was like this now, what would happen to them in the future?
Su Wan wasn’t sure at all.
Su Wan sighed slowly and walked out with the last bowl of soup.
There were a total of three dishes and one soup. There were two more dishes than shat Su Wan usually prepared for dinner. She even made two portions of rice.
Jing Chen picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and ate it. He chewed it slowly and savored it carefully.
Su Wan was a little nervous by his attitude.
She looked at him eagerly and asked, “What do you think?”
“I think it’s delicious. Will you cook for me every day from now on?” Jing Chen suddenly asked with interest, his eyes shining.
Su Wan caught it all.
Su Wan raised her eyebrows and said, “If you don’t have another woman, why wouldn’t I? As long as you want to eat it, I’ll make it for you.”
Jing Chen pursed his lips and said, “If the man who likes you doesn’t pester you, I’ll be especially happy.”
“…”
Su Wan didn’t know what to say.
The two of them fell silent.
They had explained it to each other many times, but the problem could not be explained.
It was because the trust between them had collapsed.
How could Su Wan not realize this? She ate slowly and was obviously not as interested as before.
The smile disappeared from her face.
Jing Chen really thought that it was delicious. He did not expect Su Wan to have such culinary skills. He liked it very much.
But now, whatever he ate was tasteless to him.
In the end, he was the one who spoke first. “I can’t bear to let you cook every day. Alright, let’s not talk about these unhappy things.”
