73 As If These Dishes Will Be Delicious
“Come in.” The smile on Shen Liu’an’s lips immediately faded.
Shen Yaowei placed her elbows on the table and rested her chin on her fair hand. She watched as the door opened, and Yu Linlang walked in with a tray.
Immediately, she smelled a strange fragrance that belonged to food, and her nostrils twitched.
Yu Linlang held the tray steadily in her hand and walked up to Shen Liu’an and Shen Yaowei. She glanced at the four dishes on the table, and the mocking smile in her eyes disappeared.
!!
Those dishes looked nauseating.
It must taste terrible.
Shen Yaowei also saw clearly what was on the tray in Yu Linlang’s hand. It was food she had never seen before.
On one plate were thin yellow strips about the length of a pinky finger. Beside the thin strips was red sauce. On the other plate, the contents were even stranger. There were two pieces of flatbread with vegetables and meat pies. The flatbread was also golden yellow with sesame seeds sprinkled on it.
The fragrance of the food was charming.
“Looks like I’m a step too late.” Yu Linlang smiled as her gaze darted back and forth between Shen Liu’an and Shen Yaowei. “I heard that you’re in a bad mood, Uncle. Yaoyao cooked delicious food to make you happy, so I thought of making some snacks myself to make you happy. If you’re still hungry, are you willing to try Linlang’s cooking?”
As she spoke, Yu Linlang took out the two plates from the tray in her hand and placed them on the table.
With the contrast of the two plates of delicious food, it made the four side dishes that Shen Yaowei had made at the beginning look even more terrifying.
“Yu Linlang, what’s this?” Shen Yaowei pointed at the two plates and asked.
“This is French fries… This is called a hamburger…” Yu Linlang pointed at the plates and introduced them.
Shen Liu’an had never seen such rare food before, but he resisted the urge to try it and said, “This time, Yaoyao’s food is very delicious. I’m already full. Linlang, I appreciate your filial piety. However, if you have time, you should spend more time with your mother. Take these to your mother to eat.”
The alienation in his words was obvious.
Yu Linlang’s heart instantly felt as if it had been stabbed by an ice knife. It was indescribably dry and uncomfortable. She couldn’t help but look at Shen Yaowei’s dishes again.
It would be a miracle if these dishes were delicious.
Shen Liu’an was saying this to take care of Shen Yaowei’s pride.
Trying her best to maintain the smile on her face, Yu Linlang said softly, “Ever since my mother and I came to the Shen residence together, I’ve been taken in and taken care of by my uncle. In Linlang’s heart, my uncle is like a father. These two simple snacks are just a small token of my appreciation. Are you unwilling to accept them?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a sad expression appeared on her beautiful face.
“Father, Yu Linlang is right. Why don’t we leave it?” Shen Yaowei suddenly said with a smile.
Shen Liu’an glanced at his daughter and nodded. “Alright, leave it. Linlang, you can go back now.”
Yu Linlang looked at the harmonious scene of the father and daughter in front of her and felt that she could not breathe easily. She bowed to Shen Liu’an and said, “Yes, I’ll take my leave then.”
After Shen Yaowei watched Yu Linlang leave the room, her gaze returned to the fries and burgers.
She picked up a fry, put it under her nose, and sniffed it. “It smells like potatoes.”
“I’ve never seen such strange food either,” Shen Liu’an said slowly. “But it’s better not to eat anything of unknown origin. Yaoyao, if you want to eat it, you can get the chef to take a look and make another serving.”
Shen Yaowei nodded slightly. She did not dare to eat the food made by Yu Linlang.
