Reborn in the 90s with a Space: Winning Back My Husband

Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Are You Disgusted With Me?

The four members of the Shen family held their chopsticks with trembling hands, unable to bring themselves to reach for the dishes right in front of them.

After all, once they picked up a piece of food, they’d have to eat it. Holding off at least bought them some time.

"Dad, Mom, Older Brother, Xiang Nan, you don’t like the food I made?"

As Shen Nian spoke to the four of them, a hurt look appeared on her face.

"No, of course not! Why would we ever think that?"

’Of course they wouldn’t dislike Shen Nian, but they *would* dislike terrible food!’

"Dad, Mom, Older Brother, Xiang Nan, Xiao Nian’s cooking is delicious!"

Lu Cheng sat down beside Shen Nian, immediately picked up his bowl and chopsticks, served himself a piece of food, and ate it with a look of pure bliss.

Normally, at a family meal, you’d let the elders eat first. But Lu Cheng could see that Shen Nian was deliberately teasing them, so he decided to play along.

Sure enough, when they saw Lu Cheng eat that bite of food, all four members of the Shen family gulped, their eyes glued to him.

’He ate it, chewed it, and swallowed it! And there wasn’t the slightest hint of a pained expression on his face—in fact, he looked like he was enjoying it!’

’Wow, now that’s true love. That is definitely true love!’

’Now, the Shen family was filled with utmost admiration for Lu Cheng. To be able to eat such horrible food without even flinching... how much must he love her to be able to do that!’

’But if Lu Cheng could do it, then they, as Shen Nian’s family, certainly couldn’t be outdone!’

"Alright, since my little sister made it, I’ll be the first to try!"

As the other three members of the Shen family hesitated, Shen Xiangdong was the first to step up. He picked up a piece from the dish closest to him, squeezed his eyes shut, steeled himself, and put it in his mouth.

The other three had been inspired by Lu Cheng’s actions, but since Shen Xiangdong had beaten them to it, they figured they might as well wait and see how he reacted.

After putting the food in his mouth, Shen Xiangdong kept his eyes closed, so naturally, he didn’t notice the others staring intently at him.

’Originally, Shen Xiangdong had braced himself for the worst. It was just one dish. So what if it was disgusting? As long as he didn’t disappoint his little sister, he was willing to eat something awful!’

However, the moment the food entered his mouth, he didn’t taste the disgusting flavor he’d anticipated. Instead, a wave of deliciousness washed over his palate.

’This... this is what my little sister cooked? How is this disgusting? It’s unbelievably delicious!’

Shen Xiangdong took a few more chews, and the flavor only grew more exquisite. It was even better than all the other amazing food he’d ever eaten.

His eyes flew open in pleasant surprise. Shen Xiangdong then tried a few of the other dishes, one after another. Sure enough, every single one was absolutely delicious!

’His little sister hadn’t been lying, and neither had Lu Cheng. It really was delicious!’

The other three members of the Shen family watched Shen Xiangdong take a bite. They expected to see him either struggle to swallow or spit the food right out.

But not only did Shen Xiangdong not spit it out, there wasn’t even a hint of a pained look on his face. In fact, after opening his eyes, he started eating the other dishes, the look of pleasant surprise on his face growing more and more intense.

’What was going on? Could it be that the food on the table wasn’t disgusting at all, but was actually... delicious?’

Just as they were wondering, Shen Xiangdong gave them their answer.

"Dad, Mom, Little Brother, hurry up and eat! Our little sister’s cooking is incredible! I’ve never had anything this delicious in my life!"
