Helpless, Xu Niannian had no choice but to resign herself to making something in the kitchen.
Even though she really disliked Jin Yu, she didn’t want to waste food either.
The most important point was that the beast had threatened her, so she couldn’t even tamper with the food if she wanted to.
But to serve him and his jerk friends with enthusiasm was also not on her agenda.
In the end, she simply cooked three bowls of dough drop soup, mixing it with the butter sauce she had previously prepared.
She didn’t even ask if they could eat spicy food.
The red butter sauce mixed with the dough drops didn’t need any other seasoning, just a few sprinkles of green onion.
Three bowls full of dough drop soup were placed on the table, the unique fragrance of butter sauce wafting into the air, making the three people who hadn’t eaten breakfast involuntarily swallow their saliva.
Ye Shaoting looked at Jin Yu, then glanced at Xu Niannian and said teasingly, "Sister-in-law, then I won’t stand on ceremony."
Saying so, he picked up the bowl and started eating. Ye Shaoting wasn’t shy, and Jin Yu was even less acquainted with the notion of holding back.
Only Zhu Xinyu didn’t move, sitting there with restraint. Xu Niannian didn’t bother with her either.
Jin Yu had had butter sauce mixed rice before, but that was Xu Niannian’s first attempt at making butter sauce, which was completely substandard. This time, it was Xu Niannian’s third experiment. Google seaʀᴄh novel•fire.net
Although it still hadn’t met the standard of "the space," the taste was worlds apart from the first attempt.
After just one bite, Jin Yu’s expression noticeably changed, and then he quickly finished the dough drops in his bowl before handing it to Xu Niannian, "Another bowl."
His lips still glistening with oil.
Jin Yu was okay, but Ye Shaoting was even more exaggerated. He finished a bowl in no time, his face turning red with the heat of the meal.
Delicious, incredibly delicious.
After finishing one bowl and fearing Xu Niannian wouldn’t let him continue eating, he hurriedly handed his bowl forward, his eyes begging Xu Niannian, "Sister-in-law, may I have another bowl?"
Looking at the two large empty bowls in front of her, Xu Niannian rolled her eyes in silence.
She happened to roll her eyes right at Ye Shaoting, and that coquettish look stunned him on the spot as if he had been electrocuted. The bowl in his hand flipped over on the table, rolling a couple of turns.
Startled, he hastily bent down to pick it up, while Jin Yu frowned and glanced at him.
As a man, how could he not understand why Ye Shaoting suddenly spaced out?
Tsk, this woman, attracting bees and butterflies, even seducing his good brother.
"Come here, I have something to talk to you about."
Jin Yu stood up without a second thought and pulled Xu Niannian towards the outside.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing..." Xu Niannian protested reluctantly, but Jin Yu’s grip on her wrist was like a vise, firm and unyielding.
Zhu Xinyu snorted unhappily when the two of them left.
With the beauty gone and the feast uncertain, Ye Shaoting couldn’t help but turn his gaze towards Zhu Xinyu.
Zhu Xinyu was puzzled by his stare, "What are you staring at me for?"
Her tone was quite imperious.
Ye Shaoting cleared his throat heavily, "That... are you going to eat that? If not, give it to me."
Zhu Xinyu then realized that his intention in striking up a conversation was to eat that broken bowl of food.
Unable to hide her disdain, she said, "Is it really that delicious?"
"A culinary masterpiece," affirmed Ye Shaoting sincerely. "I’ve never eaten anything so delicious in my life."
Once the butter sauce met the hot soup, it immediately dispersed a rich aroma.
That spicy and numbing flavor was exactly what Zhu Xinyu loved.
The people of Nancheng usually enjoyed spicy food.
After Ye Shaoting put it like that and smelling the rich aroma, Zhu Xinyu couldn’t help but swallow her saliva.
Yet she haughtily said, "No, I want to see if it’s really as delicious as you and Brother Yu ate it so eagerly. I think you’ve just been in the army too long and find any lousy thing tasty."
Upon hearing this, Ye Shaoting really wanted to throw this young lady out.
To put on airs before such delicious food!
If you want to eat, just eat, why find so many excuses?
