Chapter 250: Wish
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Shi Mu returned, he happened to see a few people sitting in the living room staring at the two dishes in front of them.
The moment he saw Yi Zheng, Shi Mu wanted to explode. However, this time, Shen Xian came to say, “Don’t make a sound first. They’re competing!”
“What competition?” Shi Mu walked over in confusion and saw Su Tang pick up her chopsticks to take a bite of the black unknown object on Yi Zheng’s plate. Then, the smile on her face froze.
She looked up at Yi Zheng innocently and thought of how he had helped her in the past. She gave him a thumbs up and said, “It’s delicious. Although it’s a little different, the taste is still not bad.”
Only then did Yi Zheng’s expression soften. He sat beside Shi Man with interest and smiled proudly. “It’s not difficult to cook. If you like it in the future, I can get someone to bring it to you every day.”
Su Tang almost choked to death on the thing in her mouth that she did not know if she should swallow. In her excitement, the food slid down her esophagus. She immediately poured a glass of water to rinse her mouth and became even more flustered, afraid that the thing just now was poisonous!
Seeing Su Tang’s expression, Yuan Yi felt more confident. He pushed his plate of good-looking things forward and smiled. “Try mine. My plate of chicken wings is definitely better than his.”
Yuan Yi was quite confident in his culinary skills. Although he had not entered the kitchen many times and his food had been cooked by the servants at home, he had seen how other people did it. He followed the recipe and realized that it was not difficult.
Su Tang looked at this plate of chicken wings that looked and smelled good. Her expression finally improved a little. Then, she picked up a piece and took a bite. She immediately hated herself for being rash.
She suddenly spat out the chicken wing in her mouth. The piece of meat that had been bitten off revealed bright red blood under it.
Su Tang cried and refused to eat it no matter what. “You’ll get sick if you eat this! You can’t eat it!”
Shi Man comforted her in amusement. “Then I won’t eat it. It’s okay.”
Yuan Yi’s face fell. He picked up his plate in confusion and looked around, but he could not figure out which step he had done wrong. Every step was clearly done according to the recipe, so how could he not be familiar?
Yi Zheng smiled proudly. “Then 1 win?”
He looked at Shi Man with a burning gaze and smiled. “Can 1 make a wish now?”
Shi Man asked with a standard fake smile, “What wish do you want?”
Yi Zheng said, “1 want to eat your cooking once. Just once.”
Shi Man was slightly stunned and raised her eyebrows. “That’s it?”
“Yes.” Yi Zheng only had this small wish.
He had never had any other requests for Shi Man. If he had to make a wish himself, he only wanted to eat the food she personally made for him. It was that simple.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was ambiguous, Shi Mu quickly stood between them and stopped her. “Forget it, forget it. My sister’s cooking is not something that others can eat just because they want to!”
“Sure.” Shi Man cut off Shi Mu’s words and nodded in agreement.
Shi Mu widened his eyes in disbelief. “Sister, are you going to cook for him? But what right does he have?”
“I have to keep my word.” Shi Man stood up and walked into the kitchen.
Just as she was choosing the dishes and taking out the ingredients from the fridge, Yi Zheng suddenly walked in and said, “Let me help you. The water is cold. Don’t touch it.”
Shi Man did not stand on ceremony with him. She generously gave up the space in front of the tap and went to prepare the other seasonings.
The two of them worked in the kitchen for less than half an hour before they finished cooking.
Yi Zheng looked like he was holding a plate of treasures. He couldn’t hide the smile on his face.
Shen Xian watched as the two of them walked out of the kitchen side by side. Suddenly, she seemed to have seen herself and Shi Zhong in the past. She finally let go of her prejudice against Yi Zheng.
Now, she only hoped that Manman could be happy, in which case Shen Xian would be satisfied and want nothing else.
When Shi Mu saw this scene, he gritted his teeth. He patted his brother’s shoulder righteously and suggested seriously, “Do you like Manman? If you like her, 1’11 help you!” “Huh?” Yuan Yi was shocked by his sudden words. In order to avoid arousing the disgust of Shi Mu, who had a sister complex, he had been careful to hide his feelings.
Unexpectedly, after being provoked by Yi Zheng today, Shi Mu actually took the initiative to help him woo Shi Mu. He was overjoyed.
However, he hesitated for a while. When Shi Mu was a little impatient, he nodded solemnly and said, “I really like Manman. Then let’s work hard together.”
Shi Mu quickly reached a consensus with Yuan Yi. He had already treated Yi Zheng as a strong enemy.
However, Yi Zheng did not have the time to care about these two murderous gazes. All his attention was on Shi Man, and the deep love in his eyes was sickening.
He accompanied Shi Man to the dining table and handed her and Shen Xian a pair of chopsticks before tasting them piously..
