Chapter 68: Fifth Brother’s Personal Cooking
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After an hour, Xian Yu finally made two dishes. After thanking Xiao Yu, he hurried back to his room with the dishes.
Nan Qiao had been wandering aimlessly by the sea and picked up two good-looking sh.e.l.ls from time to time.
The production team gestured for the staff to go up and ask Nan Qiao.
“You’re clearly very bored, so why did you leave?” Usually, didn’t little girls like to stay with their close friends when they were bored?
Nan Qiao pursed her lips and chuckled. The breeze behind her stirred her hair and she faced the sea, looking beautiful and gentle.
“You don’t understand. My Big Brother doesn’t know how to cook at all. He just wants to give me a surprise. If I’m there, he’ll definitely be embarra.s.sed to ask others for guidance.”
Therefore, Nan Qiao simply left far away to give her Big Brother a chance to perform.
This pair of siblings…
The staff all resonated.
The Big Brother wanted to cook for his Little Sister personally. The Little Sister knew that her Big Brother did not know how to cook, but she did not expose him and gave her Big Brother a chance to perform.
Hearing the voice from the radio broadcast, Nan Qiao’s lowered eyes suddenly lit up. “My brother called me home for dinner.”
Nan Qiao said happily to the camera and ran back.
In front of the camera, female celebrities had always paid attention to their image and walked slowly. It was rare to see someone like Nan Qiao running around.
The staff followed her all the way and only arrived at Xian Yu’s house after about ten minutes.
However, Nan Qiao only looked a little rosy. There was no breathlessness at all. On the other hand, the staff was panting and almost died.
The little girl, who looked so pet.i.te and thin, was actually so good at running.
“Big Brother, I’m back!” Nan Qiao rushed to Xian Yu. Her hair was messed up by the wind and two strands were stuck to the corners of her mouth.
Xian Yu tidied it up for her. “Aren’t you tired, running like this?”
“I have to run fast. The food won’t taste good when it’s cold.” Nan Qiao sat at the table with antic.i.p.ation.
There were only two dishes in front of her. One was stir-fried beef with celery, and the other was scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
The beef did not seem to have been handled with good knife skills, so it was cut unevenly. The celery was also unevenly cut. It seemed that he was worried that the vegetables were not cooked well, so it was stir-fried for a long time. The celery was almost burnt.
It was the same for the tomatoes and scrambled eggs. The eggs were a little pasty, and they were a little dark. It was unknown if it was because he had added soy sauce, or if it was burnt.
Xian Yu watched as Nan Qiao sized up the dishes and felt as if a drum was beating in his heart.
What if his Little Sister said that it’s not good?
Would he disappoint his Little Sister?
Nan Qiao held her bowl and started eating. The first bite was given to the celery beef. The beef was a little too well done and was not easy to chew. It did not taste good and was a little salty.
Nan Qiao took two mouthfuls of rice. “Big Brother, why are you looking at me? Aren’t you going to sit down and eat with us? It tastes super good!”
Then, she picked up a piece of tomato and scrambled eggs.
The eggs were lacking some salt, and the tomatoes were very sour. It was probably because there was no sugar, so they were not considered delicious.
Nan Qiao picked up a large mouthful of food and ate it with the rice.
Seeing that his Little Sister liked to eat it so much, Xian Yu was relieved. It seemed like it was not too bad. His appet.i.te also increased greatly, and he sat down to eat.
However, after the first bite, Xian Yu paused. Xian Yu, who had never suffered before, only felt that the food in his mouth was a little difficult to swallow. However, his Little Sister ate so deliciously, as if it was an absolute gourmet.
Xian Yu also ate all the food. There was really nothing left.
After dinner, Nan Qiao wanted to wash the dishes, but she was chased out of the kitchen by Xian Yu.
When Xian Yu was washing the dishes, the production team took the opportunity to interview him.
“What do you think of your dinner?”
Xian Yu paused and hesitated for a moment before saying, “That meal just now was the worst meal I’ve ever had, but it was the happiest meal I’ve ever had.”
Even though the food he made tasted so bad, Little Sister still did not say anything and finished it directly. Moreover, she ate so happily. Although he knew that his Little Sister had encouraged him a lot, he was very grateful to her for protecting his heart.
Everyone had some comprehension and felt a lot. No one expected this pair of siblings to become the greatest highlight of this episode.
Without a cell phone to play with, Xian Yu could only sit in the courtyard with Nan Qiao and watch the stars at night.
The breeze blew gently, adding to the coolness.
Xian Yu decided to tell her the truth.
“Qiaoqiao, I’m sorry. Actually, 1 don’t know how to cook at all.”
Nan Qiao looked at Fifth Brother’s disappointed and depressed mood and patted his head. “It’s alright, Big Brother. 1 like the meal Big Brother made for me very much.”
Even if there were no delicacies, she still liked it. It was filled with her Big Brother’s feelings.
She was very grateful that the heavens had given her a chance to start over so that she could feel her Big Brother’s warmth.
“But Qiaoqiao, don’t worry. After this show ends, 1’11 go back and learn how to cook. I’ll definitely make a lot of delicious food for you in the future,” Xian Yu said firmly. This was the first time he had decided to do something so seriously.
“Alright, I’ll wait for Big Brother.” Nan Qiao leaned her head on her Big Brother’s shoulder and listened to him tell her about the stars in the sky.
This scene was actually not strange, but it was so pleasing to the eye that one did not want to leave. It was so warm and comfortable.
Therefore, even though it was past ten, everyone was still watching the live-stream.
At night, Nan Qiao returned to the old Grandma’s house to rest. She covered the camera and took out another cell phone from the compartment of her box.
As soon as she turned on her phone, she received a message.
[He Qian is acting strangely.]
Nan Qiao immediately dialed a number.
After Nan Zhi was captured, Nan Qiao had been sending people to secretly follow He Qian. Now, they finally received news that He Qian could not hold back.
The other party picked up the call very quickly.
“Eldest Miss, I’ve been monitoring He Qian for the past two days and found something. Recently, He Qian has been secretly looking for people from the black market to buy things. I went to ask today and found out that she wanted to buy gunpowder, but no one dares to sell it to her.”
“Gunpowder?” Nan Qiao pondered. It seemed that she had really underestimated this woman. This woman was even more ruthless than she looked.
“Yes, after failing to buy the gunpowder, she turned around and went to buy fireworks and found professionals to process them.”
“Miss, should we…”
“No need. Let her be. Since she wants it, we’ll help her,” Nan Qiao stood at the window and said softly.
Her cold words were accompanied by a smile.
After a while, Nan Qiao, who was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, actually felt a little cold.
It was cold and the wind was rising.
Nan Zhi, it’s time for me to send you and your mother to reunite..
