Chapter 585: 374 The relationship is like an affair, is Aunt Flo sabotaging herself? (3 more updates)

He just looked at her deeply, then gestured with his hand for her to come out—the kitchen was too small to fit two people. Shen Shuci simply stood outside and watched.

Also due to his profession, he cleaned up the tools quickly and neatly; even his vegetable cutting technique was familiar and fluid, making her clumsy attempts seem infinitely worse.

"What were you planning to do with these ingredients you bought?"

"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, braised eggplant in oil, and braised fish."

He glanced at her and then cast his eyes down to the fish on the floor...

His expression clearly said:

With your skills, braised fish?

Shen Shuci coughed lightly and looked down, "I’m really no good at cooking."

"There’s no rule saying women must know how to cook."

Shen Shuci felt somewhat astonished upon hearing this. He seemed too domineering and possibly a bit chauvinistic, the type who might prefer a homely, virtuous wife. She hadn’t expected he wouldn’t care about those things.

"As long as..."

"One person in the family knows how, that’s enough."

Shen Shuci’s heart fluttered at his words. Standing outside the kitchen, unable to be of any help, she felt somewhat idle and fidgeted with her fingers.

Ah—

She had promised to treat him to a meal, yet now the guest himself was cooking. If her parents found out, they would surely scold her to death.

Shen Shuci’s eyes suddenly caught the photo frame on the table that had fallen over at some point. She frowned slightly, walked over, and straightened the frame that someone had turned upside down...

His cooking skills weren’t particularly good, but they weren’t bad either. Shen Shuci was somewhat surprised—just how many hidden talents did he have?

The two of them didn’t talk much during the meal. Tang Wan did call once to ask about her cooking progress.

"...It’s okay, I’ll call you back later." Shen Shuci hurriedly hung up the phone after speaking.

When she looked up, she met his gaze.

Although he said nothing, it was as if he saw through everything, making Shen Shuci feel quite embarrassed.

In just a few short hours, they had gotten to understand each other better...

He understood that the capable person in front of him also had her inept and even muddled moments.

As for Shen Shuci, her understanding of him deepened a bit more. She felt he wasn’t as cold and inaccessible as he seemed...
