Chapter 639: Intentional
"Yueyue, these dishes are perfectly fine, why do you want to throw them all away? Can’t they still be eaten if they’re heated up? It would be such a waste to discard them like this. How about you leave them and I’ll heat them up later, and then we can have a proper meal together? I haven’t really had a chance to savor your cooking yet. If you throw them out directly, I’d be heartbroken."
"You mentioned that you were busy all of yesterday, and you rarely do household chores, so of course I can’t let your efforts go to waste. Come on, go rest, and leave this to me. I don’t have much to do today anyway, the software over there hasn’t been finished, and all I need to do is check things at the bar tonight."
"If there’s anywhere you’d like to go today, I can take you out for some fun. How does that sound, letting you relax properly? I’ve really put you through a lot recently." Shen Dong spoke with a pleasing smile.
Kang Yue understood what her boyfriend meant. Isn’t it just that he feels guilty? But what’s there to feel guilty about? The incident had already occurred and she was no longer holding a grudge, so it was time to put that matter to rest. However, since he was willing to make it up to her, Kang Yue was pleased. It was great to not have to stay in one place working and to be able to go out to clear her mind.
This was something she had longed for but hadn’t been able to do. Now that he had proactively offered to take her out, only a fool would refuse. So Kang Yue pretended to be cold and heartbroken as she went outside and then casually said,
"Since you’re taking me out, I definitely can’t lose face for you. I’ll go upstairs and put on some makeup." Having said that, she put on her shoes, headed upstairs to do her makeup, and thought about sending a message to Tang Yuchan, telling her she wouldn’t be going over today and that she was going to enjoy herself instead.
Let Yuchan see her having a good time. Thinking of that person having to work hard all day, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Indeed, sometimes it’s better to pretend to be indifferent, making him think she was offended and genuinely upset.
Shen Dong was there heating up the dishes, but then he thought it might be too hot and that the food could have gone bad. Maybe Kang Yue had already spoiled it a bit when she first cooked it. Looking at the scorched surface, he suddenly felt relieved. Thankfully, he didn’t come back to eat yesterday. If he had given up the barbecue to come back for these burnt dishes, he would have regretted it for a long, long time.
Then, he probably hadn’t eaten enough yesterday and might have ended up having to go out hunting for food. His decision was wise after all. It was just that appeasing this girl afterward was a bit troublesome. Ah, he should not have taken on this task in the first place. To discard it was to discard it. Was this even edible? He started to regret it when he saw the blackened bottom.
But if he threw it away now, Kang Yue might have an ugly expression when she returned. After thinking it over, he decided to endure it and heat it up. Since Kang Yue would be eating with him later anyway, if it turned out to be inedible, then neither of them would have to eat.
