Chapter 74: The Familiar Taste of Strawberry Milk
Once again, CEO Xu transformed into Chef Xu. The huge kitchen with numerous modern appliances became his battlefield.
"Szechuan beef, crispy honey sesame chicken, chili oil cucumber salad and omelet," Calix repeated Leslie’s requests. He put on the navy blue apron, "So, I’ll leave the strawberry milk to you."
"Hahaha, okay~"
Once he was done tying the apron to the back of his waist, Calix took the necessary ingredients out of the fridge, including the ones he needed to thaw. Leslie watched him defrost the beef and chicken inside the microwave.
"I’ll make the strawberry puree first," Leslie opened the huge fridge, looking for the strawberries Calix mentioned earlier, "En... ha! There is it!"
Leslie reached out for the box of strawberries. The red color was so appealing to her eyes. Each one of them was big and plump, looking so tasty.
While Calix was slicing the beef, Leslie washed the strawberries. She didn’t notice his gaze on the juicy fruit until he called her.
"Leslie, can you help me?" Calix paused from his tasks. His eyes remained on Leslie who stood a few feet away from him.
"What? Do you need something?" Leslie carried the drainer basket away from the sink. She transferred the strawberries to a plastic bowl.
Calix grinned sheepishly. He gestured at his hands, "Can you feed me one of those? My hands are dirty ah."
