Deliberately Approaching

Leng Lingxiao pulled Tang Xiaowan away from the front hall, through the corridor, and quickly arrived at the kitchen.

Here, a faint scent of wood pervaded the air, a simple chandelier hung quietly beneath the wooden beams, and the walls around were eroded by time to a pale yellow, yet they remained neat.

"Wow, this house must be about a hundred years old!" Tang Xiaowan exclaimed, curiously surveying the area, then asked, "Is there a refrigerator, and might there be something delicious inside?"

Leng Lingxiao smiled and opened the refrigerator door.

"There’s beef, vegetables, fruits, and our family’s secret ancestral seasoning."

Tang Xiaowan: "?"

Leng Lingxiao picked up a pottery jar, shook it, and it emitted a crisp sound, "As long as you have this, no matter what dish it is, it can become a delicious meal."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaowan hurried over, "Really? That sounds magical!" She looked at the black powder inside the pottery jar and suddenly raised her eyebrows, "It clearly looks like you’ve just bought and poured in some ready-made stuff."

"Nonsense, it’s genuinely a secret family recipe." Leng Lingxiao laughed proudly and whispered, "Alright, now this handsome guy is going to start performing some magic, you’re welcome to watch eagerly, Tangtang."

Leng Lingxiao skillfully began preparing the ingredients.

He took a piece of fresh beef, sliced it thinly, then sprinkled a layer of the secret seasoning on it. Then, he cleaned the vegetables and prepared to show off his cooking skills in front of Tang Xiaowan using a frying pan.
