Chapter 397: Chapter 397: When Can Everyone Eat the Food I Cook

Suddenly, just as the group across was watching with keen interest, a deadly cold light whizzed over.

"Shit, shit, we’ve been spotted, let’s get out of here quick!"

Instantly, a clattering noise erupted.

Soon, the spectators had vanished without a trace.

Throughout the whole process, the man didn’t say a word; naturally, Lu Jing, who was squatting in the corner peeling garlic, was even more unaware of the situation.

After peeling the last one in his hand:

"Jiang Ye, I’m done."

"Mm, it’s fine now, take a rest, it’ll be ready soon."

Lu Jing nodded his head and didn’t leave the kitchen, just leaned against the door, his eyes unblinking as he stared at the man’s figure.

Watching the man’s proficient movements, Lu Jing couldn’t help but ask:

"You used to not even touch water, how come you know how to do all this now?"

Jiang Ye smiled and then said in a meaningful tone:

"Isn’t it because someone just took off abroad, disappearing for six years without returning.

The one left behind was bound to suffer from longing.

When I couldn’t bear it any longer, didn’t I just have to help out in the kitchen?"

Over time, wouldn’t I have learned something by watching?

How could Lu Jing not hear the complaints and grievances in the man’s words?

*Cough cough.*

He couldn’t help but cough twice:

"Are we still bringing up the past?"

Mainly because Lu Jing himself felt he might have indeed been a bit too much back then, so he was somewhat embarrassed about it.

Jiang Ye covered the pot and then turned the heat from low to high, murmuring:

"Past affairs?"

Actually, how long had it been?

Only a few months.

But really, there was no deep resentment,

It was just a casual mention.

Lu Jing felt very uneasy, his hands unconsciously at his back, fingers interlocking:

"I..."

He was very hesitant, very conflicted.

Seeing this, Jiang Ye couldn’t help but laugh:

"Alright, alright, no need to be so torn up about it, I’m not really holding a grudge."

Look at that little face, all wrinkled up.

Mostly, he felt pity.

*Cough.*

Lu Jing coughed again:

"Well, I’ll wait for you in the living room."

No choice, he couldn’t stay there any longer.

The kitchen was naturally smoky, and Jiang Ye agreed right away:

"Go ahead, just tell me if you need anything."

"Okay."

Honestly, it’s not like he’s a kid, it shouldn’t be a big deal!

Lu Jing quickly left the kitchen and then took a deep breath, almost suffocating.

Meanwhile, in the kitchen, the man laughed uncontrollably, his lips curling in a way that he couldn’t suppress.

....

At seven o’clock in the evening, the couple began their dinner on time.

Looking at a big plate of chicken stewed with mushrooms in front of him, the appearance was quite good, scoring at least a six, then came the taste.

He took a piece to try:

"It’s quite delicious."

He praised generously.

The man, of course, was happy:

"Then eat more."

"Mm, Jiang Ye, if you ever quit your current job, you could consider opening a restaurant; the business would probably be good."

A sincere compliment, right?

However, the man outright rejected the idea, even confidently adding:

"Who else could eat the food I cook?"

Forget outsiders, even the Jiang family, his own parents, hadn’t tasted it even once.

But for Lu Jing, he was the one Jiang Ye was willing to cook for willingly!

Even enjoying it.

Lu Jing almost choked:

"*Cough cough cough...*

Did you sneak some honey in the kitchen just now?"

Otherwise, how could all this cheesy romance come out as soon as he opened his mouth?
