Chapter 1040: Chapter 1026: A Fusion of Arts
But in this world, where can there be such perfect things? In life, many people still have to struggle for the basics.
Su Xuan really appreciates a song called “I Want Silence,” which is about being exhausted every day, wanting to sleep as soon as you get ho, and then having a wife who doesn’t understand and thinks the man isn’t committed, wondering who will pay for the kids’ tuition.
Actually, that song sings about a very realistic world. This world is always so cruel. Many won are really kind of foolish, watching Korean dramas all day, like Professor Du or so “simi da,” without realizing they’re just artistic concoctions. How can life be perfect? Although there are many rich second-generation kids, if you really compare, there are still more ordinary people, many of whom still have to struggle for their families.
Many won are pampered by n at the start of relationships. I can only say that many n now, in order to pursue won, get warped by reading random inspirational quotes, such as “So what if my woman has a big temper? I’m the one pampering her,” or “A man who can’t cook isn’t a good man.”
Only after the honeymoon phase do they realize that loving each other is easy, but living together is hard. The three-year itch and seven-year struggle can make many people want to collapse.
So Su Xuan never easily cooks. He actually can cook, but he doesn’t do it easily because he feels it’s not sothing he should often do. Cooking is sothing to do occasionally when there’s nothing else to do; otherwise, just beco a chef.
At this mont, Su Xuan had already cut open a fish. Watching this scene, the two won were stunned.
“Wow, Su Xuan, you’re really sothing, aren’t you? How can you be this amazing?” Shu said enviously, thinking that he is indeed a master, worthy of admiration, making herself feel quite amateur.
“Alright, today I’ll be a good guy and cook a al for you all, but I can only make braised fish. We’ll just make do with a braised fish tonight!” Su Xuan said with a smile. As soon as he finished, Shu pouted and said,
“Su Xuan, don’t be so modest. I know you’re aweso. You’re my idol, really.”
Shu actually didn’t quite believe that Su Xuan could only cook one dish. This guy was such a show-off. Before, he said he only knew how to make egg fried rice, and then he made such delicious noodles. Honestly, Shu felt that Su Xuan was like soone she could never fully understand.
“Uh, do I seem like a modest person? I really only know how to make braised fish. It’s simple, really—my old ntor loved fish, so he forced to cook for him all the ti, and if I didn’t, I’d go hungry. Ah, I had it tough too.”
Su Xuan looked as if he had endured hardships, while Shu Xin and Shen Ruoqiu both glanced at him skeptically, not quite believing his story. Who could be so hard on him? It’s a miracle he wasn’t tornted to death.
“Hey, hand the apron. I’m cooking now, and I’m starving.” Su Xuan said to Shen Ruoqiu, who quickly unfastened her apron to hand it over. Su Xuan pouted and said,
“Hey, beautiful, can’t you help tie it for ? Can’t you see I can’t free my hands right now?” Su Xuan was marinating the fish, trying to enhance its flavor, but both his hands were occupied with the fish, so it was difficult to tie the apron.
Shen Ruoqiu’s cheeks turned a deep red as she shyly stood behind Su Xuan, looping the apron around his neck and pulling the strings around from behind. Honestly, the whole thing felt rather intimate, like she was hugging him.
Finally, after helping Su Xuan tie the apron, her heart was still pounding, feeling quite nervous, yet very captivated by that sensation.
Shen Ruoqiu herself didn’t know why she felt this way. It had been years since she felt anything like it.
You have to say, Su Xuan looks really handso when cooking, with the two girls on the side staring at him with sparkling eyes, thinking to themselves, no wonder there’s a popular saying nowadays: n who can cook are always the most handso. It’s really true.
When the three of them reached the dining room, there was a braised carp on the table. Su Xuan called this one dish. At first, Shu thought he was joking, but to her surprise, he really made a dish. Shu was left with her mouth agape, thinking, “You’re actually only making one dish, isn’t that a bit too little?”
“It slls so good, wow, it looks delicious.” Shu said excitedly, already drooling.
“Look at you. Alright, let’s eat. I haven’t had my own cooked fish in ages, and my skills are a bit rusty!”
Su Xuan said, taking a small piece and eating it, smacking his lips.
“Ah, my technique has regressed a bit; looks like I need to improve,” Su Xuan said, preparing to eat when his phone rang. He stood up to get it from the room, while Shen Ruoqiu and Shu Xin started gobbling up the food, exclaiming,
“Wow, am I just too hungry, or why does everything taste so delicious? This is so yummy!” Shu Xin was genuinely excited. This taste was even better than eating at a five-star hotel. Not only was the texture great, but it was also extrely fresh and delicious.
“It really is delicious, I can’t believe Su Xuan’s fish is so tasty. What should I do, I was planning to eat just one bowl, but now I want a few more.” Shen Ruoqiu said excitedly. To be honest, Shen Ruoqiu really thought Su Xuan’s fish was tasty. How could he make such wonderfully sweet and savory flavors? The taste was simply amazing.
“Doesn’t matter, I want to eat another bowl too. Wow, this dish Su Xuan made is just too good. I was worried one dish would be too simple, but now I feel like I don’t want anything else. Xiaoqiu, make sure to have do sit-ups later.”
Shu said as she ran into the kitchen to get more rice, while Shen Ruoqiu quickly stood up and said,
“Wait for , I want another bowl too.” With that, the two foodies filled another bowl and started eating heartily.
