Chapter 279 - The Path of a 'Handsome and Cool' Wife
Linfeng put a bowl of fish soup in front of his Young Miss. It was still smoking hot and its fragrance made people's mouth water.
The rest of the people in their table collectively took in a deep breathe to savor the fragrance. Then, they bowed and began wolfing down their food.
Linfeng did not immediately eat. He sat down beside his Young Miss. He knew that the soup he cooked was delicious, after all, he had trained his cooking skill quite a bit. Still, he could not help but feel a bit nervous as he watched Xiong Zhi take the spoon.
He was looking forward to hearing his Young Miss's praise.
Xiong Zhi blew on it first and then took a sip.
The fragrant warm soup entered her mouth, tickling her taste buds. She was immediately drowned by the milky taste. It was so good! She could taste the blend of flavors of the fish itself and the ingredients added, yet the fish soup was not fishy at all. It had a faintly creamy yet refreshing taste.
"How was it?" Linfeng asked with a lingering smile on his lips.
"It's very delicious," Xiong Zhi smiled back. Her eyes curved up in satisfaction. She took a few more sips.
Linfeng was satisfied with that simple answer. Her actions had clearly conveyed that she liked his cooking quite a lot.
He took his chopsticks, picked up the tender flesh of the fish around the belly, carefully removed the fish bones, and added them into Xiong Zhi's bowl.
After choosing the best parts of the fish from the soup, his hand hovered over the large plate of grilled fishes. He chose what he deemed to be the best grilled fish out of the bunch, and did the same actions of picking up the tender flesh and removing all bones. He managed to pile up quite a bit in Xiong Zhi's bowl.
Xiong Zhi took a taste of the delicious fish, feeling happy with Linfeng's careful spoiling.
After Linfeng put another tender fish meat on her bowl, Xiong Zhi clipped up a piece from the bowl and brought it over to Linfeng's lips.
"Don't just take care of me, you eat, too," she said with a serious expression.
Linfeng paused, and then opened his mouth. His cherry lips nibbled on his Young Miss's chopstick. Seeing his red lips on her chopsticks, Xiong Zhi blushed.
Indirect kiss!
And Linfeng's look as he ate what she fed him, with his cheeks gently bulging, made her feel as if a cat was scratching on her chest.
Thus, she kept on switching with eating and feeding Linfeng. Linfeng, on the other hand, busied himself with picking up the fish meat from its bones.
"..." The people around the table who were wolfing down their food was forced to watch a dog food show.
Song Xuantin glanced at Gu Zhen with complaint in her eyes. Gu Zhen sensed her stare and looked at her questioningly.
"What?" he asked and then chomped down on his food.
"..."
Song Xuantin felt as if the world was gray.
"Nothing." She swallowed down her grievances. She looked down at her delicious grilled fish which suddenly appeared to be ruthlessly murdered by her.
Tsk! When would her Gu Zhen learn to have some romantic sense?
Her best friend was doing smoothly with her Operation Two, but how come she herself, the initiator of the plan, the mastermind behind all this, seemed to have no development at all?!
Just as she cried rivers of tears inside her mind, she saw a hand holding a pair of chopsticks extend itself and put a piece of fish meat onto her bowl.
She looked up at the owner of the hand and saw Gu Zhen.
The boy continued eating as if he did nothing.
"..." Song Xuantin bowed her head and ate the piece with relish. Her lips curled up into a smile.
"..."
The remaining young man on the table watched all these happen. He looked down at his bowl hesitantly.
"Uhmm... Young Miss..." Jang Shin offered his painstakingly collected grilled fish, free from bones, to the girl beside him.
Tang Xinyang glanced at him. "You want more?"
Then, Jang Shin glanced down and saw two bowls of deboned grilled fish meat filled to the brim.
"...." When did she start separating the meat from the fishbone?! This was just too fast!
Jang Shin immediately put down his offered grilled fish meat, feeling happy that he could still eat the fruits of his labor. With that much fish meat, the Young Miss did not need his own.
Alas, Tang Xinyang still ended up seeing the proffered bowl and her eyes lit up.
"Are you giving it to me?"
'Aiya, her husband is so considerate!'
Then, remembering she had her own two bowls, she quickly gave all of it to Song Xuantin and took Jang Shin's bowl happily.
Jang Shin: "..."
That was his food, ah!
With silent tears, he picked up another fish and started the tedious job of picking up the meat from the bones again.
Whatever, this time this deboned fish would be his.
The six people in the table continued to eat with a joyful atmosphere.
*****
The first day of 'camping' slash 'the rich kid style' ended.
At the junior students' resting house, on the floor assigned to the girls, inside Room 3.
Three girls were sitting in a circle on top of a bed.
There were three beds inside. All decorations inside the room were different shades of pink and white. Surprisingly, it did not come off as flashy, instead, the interior was decorated so well that it managed to give off a feminine and youthful, but classy feel. Every room on this floor had decorations like this.
The three maidens who had different tastes from the usual princess style did not pay it any attention though. Their faces were serious as they all looked down at the book at the center.
It was the book containing Song Xuantin's Operation Plan.
Song Xuantin, who wore lavender pajamas, coughed. "Ahem, ahem. In light of our project initiated today, we have all made a lot of efforts to achieve our purpose," she said in a pretentious business-like tone. "The day has ended, and before we continue on with our plan for tomorrow, we have to evaluate first our achievements for today."
The two other girls nodded seriously.
Song Xuantin was satisfied with their serious attitude. "Alright, how is your progress so far?"
The tall girl wearing a large loose shirt and long cotton pants, Tang Xinyang, spoke first.?Delight was evident in her voice.
"I am a hundred percent sure that Jang Shin is falling in love with me."
…!
"..." One looked in amazement.
"..." One looked in horror.
'How the hell did you come to such a conclusion?!'
Song Xuantin looked at Tang Xinyang with disbelief. She was with the pair most of the time today. Although she was busy flirting with Gu Zhen, she also could see a few things from Tang Xinyang and Senior Jang Shin's interaction.
Honestly, as an expert (self-proclaimed) with a PhD in Love Major (self-study on movies and novels), she could tell that Tang Xinyang's EQ and skill in romance was in absolute contrast with her strength. If her strength was one hundred percent, then at romance, she got zero percent skills.
In other words, this girl was hopeless with anything related to romance. She cannot be saved.
However, Xiong Zhi, who was immersed with her two-person world with Linfeng earlier, took it at face value and looked at Tang Xinyang with her eyes faintly showing her awe.
It was amazing, she was able to succeed somehow, despite her feminine act slipping a bit earlier during the fishing competition. To think she was able to salvage such a situation.
"Amazing," Xiong Zhi sincerely praised.
Tang Xinyang touched her chin and smugly caressed her imaginary beard.
"Haha, don't be so surprised. Being feminine is nothing difficult, easy-peasy! If not because of the competition, I wouldn't have worn my tracksuit today."
"I think it's okay. There should be no problem," the complacent Xiong Zhi said thoughtfully. "It is reasonable to wear tracksuits when engaging with sport activities." ...Although the way she showed her martial prowess was not normal at all.
Xiong Zhi also imparted her knowledge from a drama she had watched long ago with Song Xuantin. "Being a reliable wife will make your husband stay with you and not easily divorce you."
"Exactly! As a reliable wife, I would be able to feed my husband and support him well! Who will ever leave me?" Tang Xinyang agreed with Xiong Zhi strongly.
Xiong Zhi nodded with rare enthusiasm. The girl was filled to the brim with happiness this day, and her usual cool demeanor faded a bit.
Right. Right. She too caught many fishes and fed her husband Linfeng well. She remembered his eyes gently looking at her and his warm smile, as well as his cute appearance as he chewed on the food she fed him... The feeling was so satisfying!
Song Xuantin watched the two at the side with a jaded look. She wondered if she should tell these two that men nowadays generally like the 'lovely, sweet wife' who could bring out their protectiveness.
But seeing the two so adamant in taking the path of a 'handsome and cool wife', Song Xuantin kept her mouth shut.
'Forget it, everyone has their own path to take.'
After comforting herself that these two excellent girls should somehow survive well in their chosen paths, Song Xunatin finally dragged back their attention to the topic at hand.
"Since the two of you seem to be doing great, let's discuss now the second phase of our Operation Plan for tomorrow."
The two girl's eyes lit up instantly.
