Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 732
Chapter 732: The great CEO Ji’s cooking tastes familiar.
“It’s time to eat. What are you looking at that makes you smile like a fool?”
“No-Nothing!”
His voice startled her into hiding her phone behind her back again. Obviously, she was clueless about how suspicious her behavior looked.
“Ziming, you’re already done cooking!”
She quickly got up off the sofa and made her way to him.
Knowing that she was trying to change the topic, he did not expose her because he found it to be funny and interesting.
“Yes, let’s have dinner now. It’s late already.”
He nodded.
“I’ll go serve the dishes for you!” She blinked and offered with a smile.
“No need. Just sit down.”
Seeing that she was about to run away again, he reached out for her hand and then gently held it in place.
“Huh? You’re so fast! You should’ve called me, so I could help you serve them!” she muttered while holding his hands.
Soon, he led her to the open dining area.
The brown dining table was filled with dishes. Although she already knew that all the dishes the man had cooked were what she liked, she was still startled to see the table full of food.
“You made all t-these?”
She turned to look at him in disbelief.
He amusedly shook his head. “Didn’t you watch me cook in the kitchen?”
“Ye-Yes. That’s right!” She nodded, a little light-headed. Although she did not know how these dishes would taste, from their appearance alone, they seemed very delectable.
In fact, anyone would think that they tasted good from seeing their luster.
Beside their luster, there was also the aromatic fragrance of these dishes.
“You’re zoning out again.”
The man intimately poked her forehead. “Why are you spacing out so much?”
She blinked and looked at him, muttering sillily, “Ziming, why does the food you made look better than the ones I cook…”
Why didn’t I know that this annoying fellow can actually cook so well?
“Alright, let’s sit down and eat.”
He held her hand and pulled her to sit down in a chair; he then sweetly picked up the bowl in front of her and transferred some milky-white fish soup in it.
“Drink some soup first to warm your stomach.”
She received the soup dazedly and dipped her head to take a sip.
One sip was sufficient to make her stunned.
She suddenly raised her head again to look at him.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing her reaction, he frowned and thought that something was wrong with the soup he made.
Just as he moved to pick up his bowl to check what was wrong with the soup today, she suddenly spoke.
“It’s so delicious, Ziming! The soup you made is even better than the one my mom makes!” she excitedly said, her eyes shining brightly.
“I think that bowl of fish soup can rival those made by chefs in five-star hotels!”
As she said this, she downed the whole bowl of soup in one gulp, seemingly liking it a lot.
Seeing her look at him in awe with her bright eyes, the man’s mood soared.
“I still want more!”
She lifted her empty bowl and passed it to him.
Her action of asking for more food only made him think that she was inexplicably and extremely adorable.
His lips curled up at the corners as he received her empty bowl, but he did not serve her another bowl of soup and gave her a bowl of rice, instead.
“Don’t drink too much soup. Have some rice first, and you can have some soup again after.”
“Oh!” She could only obediently nod and resume eating.
Seeing her dip her head to eat, he could not help but feel a little nervous inside.
This stupid woman should be able to detect that these dishes taste the same as those from before, right?
Amid his anticipation, she picked up her chopsticks and took a chunk of sweet and sour pork tenderloin.
She was about to put the meat in her mouth when she stopped and looked at him.
“Ziming, why are you looking at me like that?”
She looked at him in confusion.
She felt his stare on her for a while now. She thought she was imagining things, but when she looked up, she saw that he was really looking at her. Moreover, his eyes seemed to be very passionate, and it was even… anticipative?!
I must be mistaken!
“Cough! N-Nothing,” he coughed, trying to sound nonchalant.
She nodded and did not probe further. Instead, she dipped her head again and place the meat between her chopsticks in her mouth.
Tasting the meat, she felt baffled.
This taste…
She lightly frowned and slowly chewed the tenderloin in her mouth.
The sourness and sweetness were just right. The tenderloin meat was very tender, too.
This sweet and sour tenderloin was extremely delicious, but…
“Cough, cough!” Seeing her pondering look, he asked expectantly, “Is it good?”
She nodded in all seriousness and answered, “It’s good. Just that…”
A hesitant look flashed past her eyes. “It’s just that it tastes a little familiar.”
Pound!
His heart jumped at this.
“Maybe, I’m wrong.”
Saying this, she shook her head again.
“Have more if you like it.”
He saw her conflicted look, and his eyes tinged with amusement.
“Mhm.” She nodded. Once she took another mouthful of it, she then tried the other dishes.
However, after eating a few mouthfuls of the other dishes, the thought that this meal he had cooked… tasted familiar grew stronger!
Yes, it tastes very familiar!
It felt as if she had eaten it somewhere else before!
“Ah!” she exclaimed, as if having remembered something.
