Chapter 1388: Deep Deep, I’m Hungry
"You’re wrong. Even if we write stories with ’life-saving grace deserves a love commitment,’ it’s always about someone who’s handsome, looks charming, and is clearly influential and powerful.
Have you ever seen a woman trying to sell herself for her father’s burial picking an ordinary person to do so? Or when someone is saved from robbers or bandits - haven’t you noticed?
If the rescuer is ugly, it’s usually ’in the next life, I’ll repay you by being your horse or ox.’ So, not everyone gets the life-saving love commitment."
Qin Shen Shen would never randomly write such clichéd storylines; she’s quite discerning!
Women are picky too.
"Then with someone like me, aren’t you secretly preparing a dowry?" Huo Jinyan pulled a scary face and hugged his chest in mock fear.
"That wasn’t really a life-saving grace to me." Qin Shen Shen thought it was scariest that she almost found his words reasonable.
"How’s it not a life-saving grace? For you women, saving your face is equivalent to saving your life, isn’t it?" Huo Jinyan was clearly being shameless, yet annoyingly, Qin Shen Shen found his words reasonable.
It kind of is.
"You’re right." She couldn’t argue with him.
Qin Shen Shen didn’t go upstairs; she stayed downstairs, and at eleven o’clock, Huo Jinyan spoke up: "Shen Shen, are you going to prepare lunch? It’s already eleven, and I’m not trying to rush you, but I’m hungry."
"Sir, since Miss Qin is the guest, it would be best not to let her cook! The chef can do it, or I can do it myself. I’ve obtained a chef certificate too." Mo Yin is also a fan of Huo Jinyan and of course admires him.
However, she’s aware of her distance from him.
But she still wants to do something for him.
Chances like cooking for him, she wants to take, hoping he’ll taste her cooking, even if only that, she finds happiness.
Moreover, she noticed that Huo Jinyan seems to feel differently about Qin Shen Shen.
It’s quite possible she’s the future mistress.
Given this, it’s certainly unreasonable to let her cook.
"It’s okay. Miss Qin likes me so much, she wants to do something for me. Preparing food for me might make her happy. Plus, since I got injured for her, she’d feel bad if she didn’t do something." Huo Jinyan flatly refused.
Which left Qin Shen Shen, who was about to speak, no choice but to stay silent.
I don’t want to cook at all.
Never mind.
"Okay then! Miss Qin, if you need anything, just let me know. The kitchen always stocks fresh ingredients, mostly what Mr. Huo likes. You can tell me what you like, or directly let the kitchen staff know, so they can prepare accordingly."
Mo Yin felt a bit uneasy inside, but she knew sooner or later there would be a day Huo Jinyan brings home a mistress.
There’s no need for him to know about her feelings.
No need to add to his troubles.
"I’m fine with anything, no need to specifically buy anything. I’ll go to the kitchen and start now!" Qin Shen Shen stood up, not speaking to Huo Jinyan anymore, and walked away.
Though she walked a few steps, she then turned back, "Where’s the kitchen?"
"Pft!!" Huo Jinyan couldn’t help but laugh, "Let Housekeeper Mo take you there! I thought you already knew your way around my kitchen perfectly!"
