Chapter 398: 257. Bae Juhyun —— Naive Little Foreigner (Subscribe please!)_3
"You’re going?" Liu Xin’an repeated, successfully eliciting an annoyed look from Bae Juhyun.
"What’s wrong with me going?"
"Of course you can. Then I’ll go with you..."
"Stop right there. Mind your own stream. I can go by myself. Am I a child that I can’t even do something as basic as buying groceries?"
Liu Xin’an quickly nodded, lowered his head to Bae Juhyun’s cheek to drop a kiss, and then turned back to his streaming room.
Since Bae Juhyun had put it that way, he definitely couldn’t continue to stop her.
Feeling much better from the light kiss, Bae Juhyun also decided not to hold a grudge against Liu Xin’an.
There was no rush to buy groceries, better to rest for a bit, since Liu Xin’an wouldn’t finish streaming until around seven thirty.
It was just past six o’clock now. She could go later.
———
By the time Liu Xin’an finished streaming and stepped out of the room, Bae Juhyun had already bought the groceries.
Since Liu Xin’an would be cooking, the meal would definitely be centered around Chinese cuisine.
She had asked Liu Xin’an beforehand, so she bought the ingredients he wanted.
"What are you planning to make?"
Bae Juhyun didn’t know much about Chinese cuisine. She looked at Liu Xin’an walking toward the kitchen and curiously got up to follow him in.
The ingredients she brought back were green peppers, pork tenderloin, and tomatoes.
What delicious dish could be made by combining these?
Liu Xin’an opened the plastic bag, looked at the ingredients that Bae Juhyun had brought back, and nodded.
"I’ll make you a Chinese dish, one for the rice and one sweet and sour. Is that okay?"
"Oh! Of course, can I watch?"
"Of course."
Liu Xin’an nodded. Ever since Bae Juhyun had started asking him to cook frequently, he had rediscovered his passion for cooking.
How should it be put? If only he could adjust his habit of using less salt, less sugar, and fewer condiments, the dishes he prepared were indeed delectable.
Moreover, one thing that excited him about cooking for Bae Juhyun was... he loved seeing the surprised look in her eyes when she tasted delicious Chinese dishes.
It was probably a sense of national pride. Who wouldn’t want to see their country’s proud culinary skills appreciated by a foreigner?
Truthfully, if it weren’t for Bae Juhyun’s status, he would’ve loved to record her reactions and post them online.
Lately, that was the newest trend on the small streaming site; many people wanted to see the naïve reactions of foreigners.
Such a shame, such a shame.
"How do you plan to make it?"
Liu Xin’an first took out the pork tenderloin.
After a simple rinse, Liu Xin’an skillfully sliced the pork tenderloin into thin strips.
Luckily, he wasn’t like his own mom, only comfortable with a Chinese cleaver. Even with an ordinary dining knife, he managed quite naturally.
Having sliced the pork tenderloin, and marinated it properly, the next task was handling the green peppers.
What could possibly be paired with these two ingredients, many Chinese people might guess.
Is there any dish in the world that goes better with rice than stir-fried green peppers with pork?! (Author’s bias)
Obviously not.
After using the green peppers and tenderloin, Liu Xin’an took out a few eggs.
Another sour and sweet dish emerged.
Is there any dish in the world that goes better with rice than stir-fried tomatoes with eggs?! (Author’s bias)
It was time to let Juhyun experience the charm of Chinese cuisine—even though she had already experienced it during the New Year.
Having served two bowls of white rice, Bae Juhyun sat at the dining table, her eyes brimming with laughter, almost tangible, as she watched the man moving around in front of her.
Having a boyfriend who was willing to cook for herself truly made her feel genuinely happy and excited.
When Liu Xin’an sat opposite her, she pulled out a tissue, leaned forward, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"You’ve worked hard, my dear."
"Try and see how it tastes."
This was the first time Bae Juhyun had tried these two dishes; back at Liu Xin’an’s home, they always ate lavish meals... she had never eaten such "simple" Chinese food before.
She was very satisfied with today’s Chinese dishes, as they looked very healthy.
The only dish that was somewhat greasy was the stir-fried green peppers with pork.
But it was not a big problem, she just ate more peppers and less meat.
She picked up a chopstick of stir-fried green peppers with pork, gently blew off the steam, pressed her long hair with one hand, and then put the stir-fried green peppers with pork in her mouth.
The explosion of spicy flavor in her mouth instantly made Bae Juhyun’s eyes widen; she covered her mouth with her hand and chewed the crunchy peppers carefully, unable to stop praising.
"Sss... wow, you really, wow..."
The spiciness and her limited vocabulary made it hard for Bae Juhyun to find the words to describe it; she struggled to speak and eventually had to take a sip of water to soothe the spicy flavor in her mouth.
"How is it?"
"Absolutely amazing, and you said you couldn’t cook! You liar!"
Bae Juhyun was exasperated; if she had known earlier that Liu Xin’an could cook this well, she could have eaten Chinese food every day.
Instead of ordering takeout every day as before, she had nearly tried every delivery option nearby!
Liu Xin’an smirked awkwardly; he genuinely didn’t think he was good at cooking...
After all, Bae Juhyun had tasted his stir-fried vegetables before.
But now was not the time to argue with Bae Juhyun; that would be foolish.
"Try this."
He scooped a small spoonful of the delicious-looking stir-fried tomatoes with eggs and fed it to Bae Juhyun.
Bae Juhyun first carefully blew on it to cool it down and then bit the spoon slightly open-mouthed.
The sweet and sour taste instantly filled her mouth; Liu Xin’an liked his stir-fried tomatoes with eggs sweet, so he added a bit extra sugar.
However, whether these calories would be successfully burned off...
Liu Xin’an didn’t think it would be difficult at all, considering Bae Juhyun had come to him willingly—tonight, if everything went as expected, both their physical activities should meet the mark.
