Chapter 37 - 037: Don’t doubt it, that’s it
Jiang Baizhou sat sideways with his arm resting on the bar counter, his thumb and index finger rubbing together. His deep eyes were fixed on the busy figure in the kitchen, and a hint of a smile appeared in his eyes.
But when he saw her fumbling, the smile in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by complete worry.
He wasn’t worried about her, but whether they’d be able to eat dinner tonight.
Watching the oddly-shaped tomato slices on the chopping board in the distance, Jiang Baizhou raised a hand to rub his forehead. Seeing her frying eggs and dodging oil splashes, he sighed silently, got up, and went to the living room with his phone. After thinking for a bit, he decisively opened the takeout app.
Half an hour later, Jiang Baizhou was leisurely watching TV in the living room when Cen Jin came out of the kitchen with a dismal face, as if suffering some great grievance. Jiang Baizhou, seeing her like this, basically understood. He placed the TV remote to the side and pretended to be clueless, asking, "What’s up?"
"Well... I burnt the only three eggs, and the tomatoes too. And I think I used sugar instead of salt in the noodles." Cen Jin lowered her eyes, awkwardly touched her nose, and answered sullenly.
This was not quite what she had imagined. What went wrong?
This result was within Jiang Baizhou’s expectations. He just didn’t want to discourage her enthusiasm, so he let her be. Now, she had earned the title of ’kitchen scourge.’
