Every time China opened the refrigerator, she wondered if the original owner had mixed a secret cocktail and then started composing music while enjoying it.
"Want something to drink?"
China took out a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label and joked.
"No"
Su Shi's expression turned serious. She took the wine from Chi Nai's hand and put it back in the refrigerator.
"Are Chizuru's family members usually very busy?"
The original owner would rarely talk about or answer questions about his past in front of Su Shi.
In Su Shi's view now, Qian Nai may have made some changes, since she has accepted others to come to her house.
So she asked again about the things China had refused to answer before.
After a moment's hesitation, Chika casually said, "I was raised by my mother alone, and she's been traveling a lot lately."
"Then you have to control yourself and stop drinking."
Su Shi grabbed Chi Nai's hand.
She looked somewhat troubled, but what she said was:
"Come with me to the supermarket to buy some meat and vegetables. I'll cook tonight."
Honestly, I only wanted Xiangzi to approve of me, which is why I thought of taking care of her sister. I didn't expect this sister to be such a worry.
I'm sorry, Mom, I didn't cook for you tonight, and I even cooked for this guy instead. It was my fault.
"Forehead……"
China initially thought she was just joking, but it seems she's gotten an unexpected bonus? I wonder how well Suze's cooking turned out.
"But we just got home, and we don't really want to walk anymore. How about we just have fresh food delivered upstairs?" China suggested.
"no"
Su Shi refused in a very serious manner.
"You have to go to the supermarket and pick it out yourself, especially the meat."
"Okay~"
I took Su Shi to the supermarket near my home. She asked me if I had any dietary restrictions. After I answered no, Su Shi went to the fresh food section and carefully selected some items.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, her careful expression softened, and she put her hands together beside her face with a smile:
"By the way, I was so busy picking things out for myself, what does China want to eat? Or are there any toppings she likes?"
"It's hard to decide. How about Su Shi chooses instead?"
"China should have her own preferred foods, right? Think about it carefully?"
"let me see……"
At this point, China wandered into the spice section and saw bagged Indian crispy balls, along with matching green masala noodles.
Just as China reached out out of curiosity, Suze immediately grabbed her hand back.
"I'll choose."
Chapter 52 Middle Gate vs. Middle Gate
Parsley, beef, potatoes, carrots...
After selecting the ingredients, Su Shixian went to the checkout counter and said:
"Then let's split the cost of these ingredients later."
"But... this time Su Shi is coming to my house as a guest, and Su Shi is also coming to help with the cooking. It's not really appropriate for Su Shi to help me split the costs, is it?"
As she strolled around with Su Shi, Chi Nai gradually forgot about the original owner's persona.
This made Su Shi feel a sense of difference and unease.
What is this guy pretending for?
Was it because I was suddenly too nice to her that she had a change of heart?
No, she must have realized that being kind to him was only for Xiangzi's sake.
Anyway, let's just do it her way. She buys the ingredients, I cook, and neither of us owes the other anything.
No, I should owe her more for providing her with a rare home-cooked meal so she doesn't have to eat takeout.
"Then I shall humbly accept your offer."
A few steps away from the checkout counter, Su Shi made room for China.
On their way home after settling the bill, the two chatted and laughed. At the same time, China's tone was relatively gentle, and she didn't belittle the other person in her jokes.
When Su Shi talked about some interesting parts, she lowered her voice even further, and Chi Nai followed suit, not compromising on softness and not revealing any roughness.
This truly felt unfamiliar to Su Shi, as if Li Xi had started a cute otaku dance in front of her.
Kelixi was just quick-witted, unlike that guy who was a volatile and explosive person, whose words were even more unbearable than Mu's.
Even if someone had a change of heart, it wouldn't cause such a drastic change in personality.
Su Shi is more inclined to believe that the other party was just having fun and was putting on an act. Once Su Shi was genuinely fooled and lowered her guard, the other party suddenly revealed their true form, giving her a shock.
Su Shi felt that no matter what, she had to always be vigilant.
So when they arrived at China's house, she told her to go upstairs and rest, saying that she could handle the cooking herself, and then began to prepare the ingredients.
Otherwise, if Su Shi were to chat with this fake affection and feigned gentleness of China while preparing ingredients, she was afraid that she would be so distracted that she would cut herself with the cleaver.
It was Su Shi's reminder that made China realize there were still some things to deal with upstairs.
Aside from connecting the computer to the TV, replacing computer parts, and making the beds in the guest rooms.
Bloodstains in the sink... ugh, I'll have to use hydrogen peroxide to wash it, but I didn't buy any at the supermarket.
At this moment, China noticed some ingredients she had just bought at the supermarket: vegetable washing salt and white vinegar.
They can also be used to clean bloodstains.
Find a reason to take some up.
"Su Shi, I heard that washing your hair with white vinegar and salt can be very good for your scalp."
With that, China picked up two small bowls, filled each with a little white vinegar and salt, and set off.
"Really? I'll try it next time!"
Su Shi agreed, but then rejected the unorthodox remedy in his heart.
On the other side, after bringing the salt and vinegar upstairs, China quickened her pace and entered the bedroom.
She first placed the bowl on the desk in the bedroom, then put the medicine box on the desk into the drawer under the bed.
Then, he took the bowl to the bathroom, and used a dry cloth to apply some salt and vinegar to the bloodstains in the sink. He waited for about ten seconds for the bloodstains to slowly dissolve.
Don't panic, Qiannai. It takes at least an hour to cook a meal, and you don't have much time to spare.
No... China remembers that Su Shi was going to make beef stew with potatoes, so she might come upstairs to take a look while the soup is simmering.
So we need to speed things up... but it seems we don't really need to speed things up.
While thinking, China anxiously rubbed the bloodstains clean.
Her obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) about cleanliness seemed to give her the illusion that cleaning stains would take a long time, but her OCD was an obsession with washing her own body parts for a very long time.
As for cleaning up the surrounding environment, it's not that serious; it's more of an obsession with "keeping things tidy."
Having shed the burden of this illusion, China returned to a relatively relaxed state, placing her palms on the ground and walking lightly downstairs.
Then he lay on the sofa, rested his chin on the back of the chair, and watched Chef Su Shi's cooking skills while swinging his legs.
"Why didn't Xiao Qianna go to wash her hair?"
Su Shi glanced back and asked, then kept urging the guy to hurry upstairs.
It felt so strange to be stared at by this guy with such a cheerful expression, as if flowers were blooming all around.
"I want to see Su Shi's cooking skills."
China stood up and hugged the back of the chair to get a closer look.
She realized that her current appearance might not be quite like the original owner's, but it didn't matter.
Su Shi gradually slowed down her chopping speed because she needed to focus on communicating with China.
"Making soup is very simple. Just cut the ingredients and put them into the pot at different times."
I can't take it anymore, stop talking to me and let me finish chopping the vegetables.
"By the way, let me wash the dishes after we finish eating?" China suggested.
"But, Chika has already paid for the ingredients, so I'll take care of cooking and washing the dishes."
Su Shi answered in a soft voice, and sure enough, the latter picked up the food again.
"This is just what I should do as the host, otherwise I should have been the one to cook the dishes."
"Haha, in the end, it's just that I didn't want to eat takeout," Su Shi said ruefully.
"Then I'll help you chop the vegetables..."
Thump??
As soon as Qian Nai finished speaking, Su Shi casually dropped the kitchen knife, which landed right on the cutting board.
Then the latter said impatiently in his natural voice, "Can you stop pretending? Where did your attitude of 'everyone owes you something' go?"
Seeing China's suppressed laughter, Su Shi walked up somewhat unhappily: "If you like pretending so much, why don't you pretend to be your sister when she was in junior high?"
What did Xiangzi look like in junior high school?
China tries to create in her mind the image of a naive and innocent young lady who grew up in the sweetness of an aristocratic family and has never experienced hardship.
"Excuse me, is that so?"
China tilted her head slightly, revealing an innocent smile. She took a tuft of hair from each side of her ears with both hands and asked in a childish voice.
"Ugh! I can't take it anymore!"
Su Shi immediately returned to the kitchen, quickly chopped the vegetables and meat, put them in a pot, added seasonings, and started stewing.
Then, after setting an alarm on my phone to remind me to turn the alarm to low, I flopped down on another sofa in the living room and put on my headphones.
Just as I was about to switch the headphones to noise-canceling mode, China asked with a hint of amusement, "What's wrong, Suze?"
"What else can you do? It's so weird that you're acting like such an innocent young girl."
"But I really like Su Shigang's act of being a gentle and skilled housekeeper."
"And now?" Su Shi asked, her expression calm but tinged with dissatisfaction.
“It’s pretty good too,” China replied.
Su Shi shook her head, wondering how long Qian Nai would have to keep up the act. If she could keep up the act all night, then Su Shi could only say that she had met her match.
Chapter 53 I just don't believe it.
"China, you should know why I'm suddenly showing you this kind of attention, right?"
Su Shi saw everything as very precise.
She thought that once China realized her intentions, she would start saying things like, "Stop squeezing, I'm going to make electronic music out of it," and so on. Instead, she went even further, whispering in China's ear, "Should I feed little China? I'll help little China put on her clothes and shoes," and so on.
Treating China like a child would both affect China's mindset and indirectly attract Shoko's attention.
Unexpectedly, this usually aloof guy also joined in, acting gentle and caring towards others, which immediately dampened Su Shi's interest.
Especially when she thought about how this guy had kept the fact that she and Xiangzi were sisters a secret for a whole semester, and now he was putting on this fake affection for her, she just couldn't stand it.
When faced with Su Shi's question, China glanced at the ceiling and pondered for a moment before replying, "Hmm... is it for Xiangzi?"
As if recalling something that had just happened, Su Shi said unhappily, "I ran into your sister after school. Do you know what your sister just said to me?"
Considering Xiangzi's current personality, if the meeting with Su Shi this afternoon is indeed attended by Xiangzi, will she plan to inform me immediately afterward?
No, if it were her, it might have turned into a complete break.
If she had the option to take a taxi, she would have gotten in and left without saying a word.
