Chapter 431 Cheating?
At this moment, Wang Jiale felt that even if he ate these two dishes every day for a year, he would not get tired of them at all.

I even had a strong urge to order Chef Su's home cooking service again immediately.

To be honest, isn't this much more cost-effective than going out to a restaurant?

Just as I was thinking about it, the phone beside me suddenly rang.

Wang Jiale took out his cell phone and saw that it was his girlfriend calling, so he quickly answered the call.

The girlfriend's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, Ale, I'm done with my work and went home early. I'll be home soon. What do you want to eat after get off work? I'll go buy groceries in advance."

Wang Jiale was stunned and said quickly: "I'm at home now."

"Why are you at home today? Aren't you at work?"

On the other end of the phone, there was some surprise in my girlfriend's voice.

Wang Jiale hurriedly explained why he had worked overtime all night and was then allowed to come back and rest by his leader.

Then, I heard my girlfriend's cheerful voice: "Then wait until I go upstairs, let's go out for dinner today."

Before Wang Jiale could say that the meal was ready at home, a busy tone came from the other end of the phone, announcing the end of the call.

Wang Jiale put down his phone reluctantly and had to reluctantly put down the chopsticks that were picking up the food in his hand.

He looked at the two dishes on the table and couldn't help feeling annoyed.

If he had known that his girlfriend would come back early today, he would definitely ask Chef Su to make more. Now he doesn’t know if it will be enough to eat.

He checked the time on his phone and realized it was definitely too late to order takeout.

At the same time, the elevator door on the 27th floor opened.

Xiaohui walked out of the elevator dragging her suitcase.

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, a rich fragrance entered her nostrils.

Then she took a deep breath unconsciously.

"Whose family is cooking so deliciously? I'm getting hungry just by smelling it..."

Xiaohui muttered softly, sniffing her nose and smelling the air.

As someone who loves cooking, she immediately smelled the aroma of the shredded pork with green peppers, which was much more fragrant than what she usually cooked.

"Is this the house of our neighbor Aunt Wu?"

Xiaohui thought about it while dragging her suitcase towards her room.

She remembered that Aunt Wu was a good cook and the aroma of her meals would occasionally drift into the corridor, but today the aroma seemed different, more intense and tempting.

"Would you like to ask for advice some other time?"

The thought flashed through her mind.

Xiaohui walked to the door of her house, took out the key from her bag and inserted it into the keyhole.

Strangely, she found that the door lock seemed to be much smoother than usual. With a slight turn, the door opened.

The moment she opened the door, the already intoxicating aroma of food seemed to have suddenly found an outlet, rushing towards her and drowning her.

Xiaohui was dazzled by the fragrance and almost became confused by it.

He stood blankly at the door for two seconds before dragging his suitcase into the house.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Wang Jiale hurriedly stood up from the dining table with an expression of surprise and depression on his face.

"Didn't you say you would be back tomorrow? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

As he walked quickly towards his girlfriend, his eyes seemed to glance uncontrollably at the food on the table from time to time.

Xiaohui looked around in confusion, and when she saw her boyfriend's strange reaction, she felt even more puzzled.

Wang Jiale was in mixed emotions at the moment, happy that his girlfriend came back early, but a little regretful that he had hired a locksmith. But then he thought again, if it weren't for this, he wouldn't have had the chance to taste the delicious home-cooked food made by Master Su, so this could be considered a blessing in disguise.

"How's the journey going?"

Wang Jiale took the suitcase from his girlfriend and asked with concern, "Are you tired? Do you want to take a rest first?"

As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily turned to the dining table.

"Of course it's for a surprise attack, to see if you've done anything bad behind my back at home~~~"

Xiaohui smiled and made a joke.

As she spoke, she hung her bag on the hook behind the door and walked towards the dining table.

At first, she thought it was her boyfriend who ordered takeout, but when she approached the table, she immediately realized something was wrong.

There were shredded pork with green peppers and shredded cabbage on the table, all served on the plates they usually used at home. The dishes were bright in color and still steaming, obviously having just been taken out of the pot.

Xiaohui frowned slightly, and the doubts in her heart grew stronger.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at the kitchen and found that the wok that she usually put on the stove after cleaning up was now hanging on the shelf on the wall.

There were still some undried water stains on the pot, obviously it had just been cleaned.

A series of doubts suddenly arose in Xiaohui's mind.

She knew her boyfriend's cooking skills very well. He could not even make the simplest fried rice, let alone cook such a delicious dish.

All kinds of unusual details flashed quickly through Xiaohui's mind, and her face gradually became solemn.

My boyfriend can’t cook, so who cooked this meal?

It couldn't possibly be our neighbor Aunt Wu. We weren't even related to each other, so it didn't make sense no matter how we thought about it.

Xiaohui began to feel a little uneasy.

A terrible thought suddenly popped into her mind.

Could it be that Wang Jiale brought another woman back to cook while I was away?
Once this idea came up, it quickly took root and spread wildly.

Her eyes began to dart back and forth between the kitchen and the dining table.

It was as if one could see a strange vixen frying dishes in her own kitchen, with an ambiguous smile on her face, and chatting and laughing with Wang Jiale from time to time.

Xiaohui's heart seemed to be blocked by something, making it hard for her to breathe.

Wang Jiale was interrupted halfway through his meal. At this moment, his mind was still full of the two dishes on the table, and he wanted to eat a few more bites.

I didn't even notice that Xiaohui's face was gradually becoming gloomy.

He even invited her earnestly, "Let's eat first, baby. I'm telling you, this shredded pork with green pepper is super delicious. It's absolutely amazing!"

As he spoke, he pointed excitedly at the dishes on the plate.

Xiaohui stood there in a daze.

Her gaze moved from the dining table to Wang Jiale's face, and a feeling of sadness welled up in her heart.

She clearly remembered that Wang Jiale vowed that the shredded pork with green peppers that he cooked was the most delicious dish in the world and that he wanted to eat it every day.

I can still vividly remember his silly grin at that time.

Nowadays, when he mentions the same dish name, he praises the taste of the dish cooked by others.

Xiaohui felt as if her heart was being tightly gripped by an invisible and cold hand, getting tighter and tighter until it was painful.

Her vision gradually became blurred and tears welled up in her eyes.
