I have big problems with my superpowers and my relationship

"..."

Ah! It turned out to be that little kid!

In fact, I guessed it a long time ago!

I don't care at all!

The stone in her heart fell off, and Qin Wanqing quietly let go of the little bear's belly that she had squeezed flat, and then she realized something.

"Eh? Did the little friend come to see you today?"

"Well, her parents brought her to the company to thank me."

Lu Chen continued to cook according to the video tutorial, the range hood humming: "You still want to give me money."

"Money?" Qin Wanqing's eyes lit up: "How much is it?"

"About 40,000 or 50,000. I don't want it."

"Why not?"

“Because their family conditions are not very good.”

Lu Chen answered and wanted to say that someone had given it to them, but after hesitating for a moment, he still adhered to the principle of "don't brag about things that haven't been realized" and shook his head to explain:

"That 40,000 or 50,000 yuan is probably all their family savings. I'm not so poor that I can't even afford to eat, so I just accepted the little bear as a souvenir."

"Ah, that's it..."

Qin Wanqing was slightly stunned, and looked down at the red bear that seemed to be smiling at her, and felt that the latter suddenly became very precious.

She rubbed the bear's belly guiltily and nodded seriously.

"Lu Chen, you did the right thing."

"Yeah, I also think I'm a modern-day three-good youth."

Lu Chen muttered, not knowing whether to brag or ridicule himself, and said casually: "This meaningful little bear is given to you. I hope you can reach my level one day."

"..."

"Buzz!"

The sound of the range hood echoed in the small kitchen, and it was already night outside.

This is the first gift Lu Chen gave me...

Subconsciously, she hugged the little bear in her arms. Qin Wanqing's expression suddenly turned the same as the little bear's and her heart was beating very fast.

The little bear was the first gift Lu Chen gave himself.

And Lu Chen was the first gift God gave to him.

After being unlucky for so long, I finally become lucky.

Mom didn't lie to herself. It turns out that as long as you keep believing that you are lucky, you will really become lucky...

"pat~"

A tear welled up from the corner of the eye, ran down the cheek, and quietly fell on the red bear's chest.

Outside the window, light ink-colored velvet covers the lights of thousands of homes, and a few stars are twinkling, and it seems especially bright tonight.

"Lu Chen, thank you for your gift..."

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Wanqing wiped the corners of her eyes, smiled and raised her head.

She gently held the little bear in her arms, looked at Lu Chen's profile as he slowly turned the wok, and asked in a very low voice:

"Well, as a return gift, I'll give you a girlfriend..."

"Do you want to..."

Chapter 50 What Mom Said

The iron pot was turning, the oil steam was bubbling, and the small kitchen was filled with the hum of the range hood.

Although it is equipped with basic kitchen appliances, the landlord obviously will not invest too much in this regard, so this range hood not only does not have the high-end "silent" function, but is more like a contemporary office worker... Although it doesn't do much work, it makes a lot of noise.

Therefore, Lu Chen did not hear Qin Wanqing's barely audible confession.

This development is actually quite similar to those melodramatic scenes in idol dramas where the male and female protagonists "miss" each other.

One enters the elevator and the other exits.

One is getting on the subway, the other is getting off.

One looks back, the other certainly doesn't.

Anyway, it was just a coincidence that they couldn't see or hear anything, as if the two of them were either blind or deaf. It makes people's blood pressure soar, and it is an excellent way to treat low blood pressure.

Lu Chen really hated this kind of deliberately arranged plot, so he was always grateful to Makoto Shinkai for not torturing him.

I remember the first time I watched "Your Name" a few years ago, there was a scene at the end where the hero and heroine were running through the streets of Tokyo looking for each other, and finally met on a long staircase, then they crossed each other and walked away in the sunlight.

Lu Chen clearly remembered that he had already picked up the chair when he saw this.

Fortunately, the male protagonist finally asked, "Have I seen you somewhere before?"

This saved Wang Tianyu's computer from disaster.

The computer thing is not important. Anyway, the above is enough to show that he is a person who hates haircuts.

But reality is sometimes just so coincidental.

He indeed did not hear what Qin Wanqing was humming. He was just concentrating on boiling the pot, his mind full of whether to add salt first or add hot water first.

So, Comrade Xiao Qin’s second confession was drowned out by the buzzing sound of the range hood.

but......

She ran to the living room, gently placed the red bear on the corner of the dining table, and quickly returned to the kitchen.

Qin Wanqing didn't seem to regret that Lu Chen didn't hear her. Instead, she happily took out various ingredients from the shopping bag, put them into the stainless steel sink, and began to wash the vegetables carefully.

The small kitchen was filled with the sounds of "buzzing" and "rustling". Both people were busy at their respective posts preparing for tonight's dinner, which would be called the "first time".

The yellow-haired man walked in holding the plastic casing of a sausage in his mouth, threw it into the trash can with ease, then looked up at the two of them with some curiosity.

A four-year-old child should be able to understand the act of "cooking".

But it didn't like the blue flame and felt it was a big threat to its hair.

So after watching for a while, the yellow-haired dog walked back to the mat in the corner of the living room, lay down happily, and swept the ground with its tail comfortably.

The balcony door was open and the night breeze blew in.

Because it is too far from the ground, the wind does not carry the scent of roses blooming in the courtyard of the community.

But Huangmao still sniffed and felt that the breeze was fragrant.

Maybe it’s because dogs have a keener sense of smell, but maybe it’s just the way things are in this world.

Just like a girl’s thoughts, it’s not heard, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

"Lu Chen, why are you so slow? I can't wait to prove myself!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? That's what they teach in the video!"

"But I see the pot has changed color. Is there really nothing wrong?"

"That's normal. It just means that a layer of ferroferric oxide has formed on the surface of the pot."

"What is ferroferric oxide?"

"How the hell should I know..."

Two heads gathered in front of the stove, staring at the greasy black iron pot in front of them. Their voices floated out of the window with the evening breeze, drifting towards the night sky far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

A crescent moon hung in the corner of the window. Neither Lu Chen nor Qin Wanqing looked at it, but it was there.

Therefore, I believe that the people and things that we missed in movies or novels will definitely meet again at some point after the ending.

It's just that the author didn't write it down.

......

......

"The dishes are ready!"

More than half an hour later, when Qin Wanqing happily walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate of salt-fried meat, the first meal, which cost a total of hundreds of yuan in initial investment and took nearly three hours to prepare, was finally ready to be enjoyed.

A plate of fried "Wanqing pepper", a plate of salt-fried meat, and a large bowl of tomato egg drop soup.

Because the rice cooker hasn't arrived yet, the staple food is egg fried rice made with rice bought from the supermarket.

All of them were done by Qin Wanqing alone.

"It looks okay..."

After poking the meat slices with chopsticks and confirming that they were cooked, Lu Chen finally felt relieved.

At least there's no health risk.

As for the taste...no matter whether it tastes good or not, just praise it!

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of Wanqing pepper, put it in his mouth and chewed it under Qin Wanqing's expectant gaze.

After a pause, Lu Chen muttered in disbelief:

"Not bad..."

"Really!"

Qin Wanqing's expression became visibly joyful: "You're not being polite, are you?"

“It’s not a polite remark.”

Lu Chen picked up the fried meat with chopsticks and said with emotion: "It's really delicious. It feels like it's good enough to open a restaurant."

"Hehe, mom and dad run a restaurant!"

Seeing that Lu Chen's praise was not fake, Qin Wanqing was completely relieved and said proudly, "When I was in middle school, I often went to the store to help out!"

"Does your family run a restaurant?"
