Chapter 95 Casual Chat
Wen Li coughed twice. "Thank you for what you did before!"
After that day, Lu Zechuan started leaving early and returning late, and Wen Li hadn't had a chance to thank him until today.
Lu Zechuan bent down, his dark eyes brimming with laughter. "You really want to thank me?"
A magnified handsome face appeared before Wen Li, causing her to gasp for breath. "Of...of course!"
"Then...would you like to treat me to dinner tonight?"
"No problem, I'll go back and cook right away!" Wen Li said, then ran back to the educated youth compound with unsteady steps.
Lu Zechuan's lips curved upwards, his eyes filled with undisguised joy. He had never thought there was anything good about his appearance, but now he suddenly felt that his face was still somewhat useful, at least she would blush when she saw him.
I initially thought Xu Yuan was just fooling me, but it seems that the kid is actually quite useful.
Lu Zechuan returned to the educated youth compound with a smile on his face. He went back to his room, picked up the pheasant that Xu Yuan had prepared, and was about to leave.
"Brother Lu, where are you taking the pheasant? I'm about to cook it!"
Lu Zechuan looked Xu Yuan up and down, making Xu Yuan feel uneasy. Only then did Lu Zechuan speak: "You seem to have gained quite a bit of weight recently. Let's have vegetarian food tonight!"
"What?"
Xu Yuan watched helplessly as Lu Zechuan took the pheasant to Wen Li's side, wailing, "No, I've definitely lost weight!"
So the other day, Brother Lu subtly asked him how to please girls, apparently because he wanted to please Wen Zhiqing! We agreed to stay single together, so why did he betray us?
He glanced at the lonely potatoes and green beans by the stove and felt that his happy days were over!
Lu Zechuan handed the pheasant to Wen Li and, without any hesitation, ordered, "Can you make poached chicken?"
"I'm really not very good at this!"
Lu Zechuan rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong, muscular arms, took the knife from Wen Li's hand, and began chopping vegetables. "Perfect, I can do that!"
Wen Li silently gave up her seat to him and steamed a large pot of rice. Now that everyone had finished work, it would be bad for her reputation to eat alone with Lu Zechuan if word got out. So she invited Chen Yan and Qi Jun to come and eat with her.
Qi Jun cooked a dish of garlic sprouts with cured pork and a plate of green vegetables at his place, and the four of them shared their dinner together.
"Wow~ No wonder Wen, the educated youth, is so popular. He treats people to such a nice meal. I wouldn't dare to do that!"
A sarcastic voice rang out, and Chen Yan rolled her eyes when she saw Yin Jiao at the door.
"Oh, it's you, Yin Zhiqing! I almost thought it was some stray dog barking!"
Yin Jiao was furious when she was scolded. "Chen Zhiqing, I was just joking. Did you have to resort to insults?"
"Why are you in such a hurry, Yin Zhiqing? I was just joking!"
Wen Li put down her chopsticks, looking at Yin Jiao with a half-smile, "Yin Zhiqing, I suddenly remembered that I haven't settled the score with you for slandering me a couple of days ago!"
Yin Jiao laughed awkwardly, "Haha, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!" Then she ran away.
Lu Zechuan looked thoughtfully at Yin Jiao's back, glanced at Wen Li, and then picked up his chopsticks to continue eating.
After finishing their meal, the group chatted for a while at the entrance before returning to their rooms.
When Wen Li woke up the next day, she could clearly feel that the temperature had dropped a lot. She took out her coat and put it on before stepping out of the house. When she opened the door, the sky outside was gloomy, clearly a sign that it was going to rain.
She cooked a bowl of egg noodles and ate it before going to work with everyone else.
Halfway through work, it started to drizzle, so work couldn't continue. Everyone rushed home, and the rain made it even colder.
Since it was raining and she couldn't go out, Wenli had nothing to do, so she took out a few pounds of chestnuts to roast and eat to pass the time.
Chen Yan also brought over a few pounds of chestnuts. The two of them started cracking the chestnuts together. While Wen Li was roasting them, Qi Jun came over to learn. Su Hao and the others also picked up a lot of chestnuts and put them away, but none of them knew how to cook them. Seeing that Wen Li knew how, they also came over to learn.
Wen Li explained the steps to everyone, and the educated youth compound was filled with the aroma of roasted chestnuts.
After stir-frying the pears, I took one out, peeled it, and tasted it. "It's a pity there's no honey; it would taste even better otherwise!"
Qi Jun also picked up a honeycomb, tasted it, and smelled it. "Honey is hard to find. We didn't see any beehives on the back mountain. If there were any, we could go and get some!"
Su Hao: "Forget it! There are so many bees, unless you want to get stung like a pig's head!"
"That's not necessarily true. Harvesting honey requires skill. If you use the right technique, you won't get stung!"
On rainy days, with nothing to do, everyone took stools and sat under the eaves chatting. Wen Li put the roasted chestnuts on a plate and moved a small table to the doorway to help everyone pass the time.
Wen Li joined in, saying, "I know how to make honey. If you see a beehive, tell me and I'll teach you how!"
Lu Zechuan raised an eyebrow. "You can?"
"Hehe~ I've seen it in books, but I've never put it into practice!" Wen Li did know the method, but she had only seen it on short videos. With the prevalence of short videos these days, you can learn anything, useful or useless.
Lu Zechuan placed the peeled chestnuts in front of Wen Li. "I'll get you some next time!"
When Wen Li saw the chestnuts that had been peeled clean, her ears involuntarily turned hot.
She had seen Lu Zechuan's recent behavior. Even if he hadn't eaten pork, hadn't he seen pigs run?
She was a top-tier player who had roamed a certain online gaming platform back in the day, and she immediately noticed Lu Zechuan's recent intentional or unintentional attempts to curry favor with her.
She never dated in her past life, so if the object of her affections were Lu Zechuan... that wouldn't be bad!
Chen Yan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as she looked at the ambiguous atmosphere between the two. She exchanged a glance with Qi Jun, who nodded slightly.
He had long noticed that Lu Zechuan had feelings for Wen Li, but since neither of them had said anything, and he didn't share his love of gossip, he pretended not to know.
Now that Lu Zechuan's behavior is so obvious, even the most blind person could see it.
Su Hao stared blankly at Lu Zechuan. Didn't his brother say that the prettier a woman is, the more likely she is to lie and deceive? He even warned him to keep his eyes open when choosing a partner. What's going on now? He hasn't even won Bai Wei over yet, but his brother has already fallen for her?
Thinking of Wen Li, Su Hao's heart trembled involuntarily. He couldn't even imagine how exciting the future would be if these two got together. They were both ruthless people!
It rained all day and didn't stop until dark. The next morning, Li Hong came to the backyard and called everyone to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms.
Everyone was incredibly enthusiastic about picking mushrooms, and they all grabbed their baskets and ran towards the back of the mountain.
Termitomyces mushrooms are most abundant this season, and in no time, someone discovered a large patch of them. Wen Li, with her strength, squeezed to the front and picked up quite a few in no time.
