Chapter 9: He will make a good cook.
"The Art of Cooking Green Tea!" Mo Jingzhe exclaimed, horrified before he could even take a look at the content of the book.
The cover of the green book was as ridiculous as the book itself. A woman was cooking green tea supposedly in a clay pot over a fire that was burning with wood. The smile on the woman's face was rather mischievous.
"It was part of research for a movie but we never shot the movie. I kept the book in case it came in handy someday, I had no idea that I would need it to help my daughter regain herself and find her true love." Chi Lian sighed. "What do you say Jingzhe, are you ready to cook some tea?"
The door was pushed open before he could respond. Jun Muyang walked in with an impatient look on his face.
"I am tired of waiting outside Chi-Chi....." his eyes saw the book in Mo Jingzhe's hands and the words on his lips died for a moment. He had to blink twice to confirm that he was seeing the abominable book out in public. Looking at his wife, he said, "I thought you burned that ridiculous book."
"Nope." She answered, emphasizing the 'p' a little too much.
Muyang turned to Mo Jingzhe, scowling at the young man intensely. As much as he loathed Mo Liang, he did not approve of Mo Jingzhe either. In his opinion, Mei-Mei and Mingzhu should have been asked away to their home and locked in like Rapunzel in that tower for their own safety.
He had told Mei-Mei many times that men were bad, she didn't listen and look where she was now! His sweet girl had been ruined by one ugly pig and here came another one, a younger one that was better looking than the first one.
"You, what's your name?"
