Chapter 64 Little White is the Name of the Dog (2)
An Nan pondered for a long time before she couldn’t help but ask, "How did you learn to do this?"
Lin Mubai’s hands kept working, as he continued washing the last dish and replied, "I went abroad right after graduating middle school. You know how bad the food is overseas."
Before Lin Mubai could finish, An Nan interrupted, "Someone like you, shouldn’t your family have arranged for someone to take good care of you?" From her understanding of Shaoqi, when that man was still in high school
, there was someone specifically to pick him up for school and back. At that time, students didn’t go home for lunch, and the school cafeteria was always awful. Back then, Shaoqi’s family would have someone make good food and send it over every day, and later on, she got a share too.
Lin Mubai didn’t mind what others thought of him, but he didn’t want the little woman beside him to think of him as a rich playboy. So he put down the cloth and cutlery, turned towards her, and earnestly shared his past, "I didn’t like having people around all the time, so I learned to cook by myself. Maybe I had a talent for it because the first dish I made turned out well, and then I just followed recipes."
"Besides Chinese food, can you cook anything else?" An Nan looked full of anticipation.
"Yes, Western food and Italian dishes, and I also make desserts." Lin Mubai nonchalantly threw out a bait.
An Nan’s reaction didn’t disappoint him at all, "Really? Really? I want to eat, I want to eat." An Nan loved desserts the most and was always eager to fly to Europe. Every time she went there, she searched high and low for desserts until Lin Mubai feigned difficulty, saying, "But you don’t have anything here."
