“Mm.”

Yan Rusheng spoke briefly to Fang Jiayin and ended the call.

He looked at Wen Xuxu with arms wide open and said, “Tie the ap.r.o.n for me.”

Just like an ancient emperor waiting for his slave to help him put on his clothes.

Xuxu had already gotten used to Yan Rusheng’s unreasonable and tyrannical requests. She obeyed his instructions and went forward to tie up the ap.r.o.n for him.

This was the first time she saw him in an ap.r.o.n. Dressed in a white s.h.i.+rt with rolled-up sleeves, coupled with a green ap.r.o.n with small cartoon character print, it made him appear less stern.

At one look, it did made him seem like a family man.

Leaning against the stove, Xuxu appeared enthralled as she sized up Yan Rusheng.

Yan Rusheng suddenly turned his face sideways and looked at her sharply. “These few days, you have been attempting to seduce me.”

His tone was full of certainty.

Xuxu rolled her eyes at him. “You have been thinking too much.”

She admitted that she did wish he would carry her into his room that night.

But ever since then, she didn’t harbor further thoughts.

She had been busy with work and household ch.o.r.es and even had to work overtime at night. Hence, she absolutely had no time to think of other matters.

“Zhou Tong will be coming back tomorrow to resume filming, so don’t be angry anymore.” Yan Rusheng diverted the topic all of a sudden.

”

Ha

.” Wen Xuxu lowered her head and laughed. “It doesn’t really matter whether I’m angry or not.”

The outdoor shoot was supposed to take place yesterday. But their entire event planning and work progress had to change just because Zhou Tong was Fang Jiayin’s friend.

This is the first precedent. Since Yan Rusheng took over the management of Flourish & Prosper, it was the first time that such a thing had happened.

Regardless of how big shot one was, no one dared to put on such airs when they were collaborating with Flourish & Prosper. All of them had to adhere to Flourish & Prosper’s schedule.

Yan Rusheng could sense a tinge of jealousy from Xuxu’s tone of voice, but he wasn’t certain with what she was jealous about.

He pursed his lips and remained silent and continued to slice the meat.

The atmosphere hushed down. Xuxu looked at Yan Rusheng’s pair of hands that were cutting the meat into thin slices—he was really good at it.

She was surprised. Had he learned it somewhere?

“Why are you staring at me? You may go first.” Yan Rusheng suddenly turned and frowned at Xuxu.

After saying that, he put the meat slices into a bowl.

He continued cutting the rest of the vegetables with joy. It really made him seem like an expert.

He appeared mysterious. And since Xuxu didn’t feel like staying in the kitchen, she might as well go. Xuxu shrugged and said, “Then I’ll go up first.”

After informing Yan Rusheng, she left the kitchen.

When Xuxu had left, Yan Rusheng walked quietly to the kitchen door, stuck his head out and looked around.

After that, he closed the kitchen door and went back to the kitchen counter to pick up his cell phone. He then searched for a webpage.

He typed in the words:

‘Recipe for making poached meat slices’

and pressed enter to search.

A list of search results for poached meat slices recipes appeared instantly.

A smile appeared on his face. He opened up a webpage randomly and followed the method step by step.

…

Xuxu returned to her room and turned on her laptop. After settling some emails, she looked at the time. An hour had pa.s.sed.

“Is that fellow still cooking?”

Had he burned down the kitchen?

She stood up and hurried out of her room. When she reached the staircase landing, Aunt Zhang was about to walk up the stairs.

“Missy, Third Young Master wanted me to inform you to come down for dinner.”

The elderly was beaming and in a joyful mood.
