No matter how Han Yuanjun assured her, Liang Zixuan didn't feel confident at all.
She stepped out from behind Han Yuanjun and stood beside him. With a guarding expression on her face, she said, "Alright, I'll keep watch here. Please start cooking."
Han Yuanjun then began to cook.
He first lit the stove and took an egg from the basket. Perhaps that was the only thing he had never eaten before because he looked at it for a few seconds and then took another egg.
With one in each hand, he smashed it into the pan so hard that it cracked.
The egg white and yolk fell into the pan along with the broken eggshell.
The corner of Liang Zixuan's mouth twitched. Looking at the eggs in the pan, she felt pain for them.
Han Yuanjun touched his nose awkwardly. "It's broken ..."
The remains of the egg yolk also stuck to his fingers, and with that touch, his nose was also covered with it. Liang Zixuan raised her head and saw that there was a little yellow on the tip of his nose.
She laughed out loud and stood on her tiptoes, wiping them with her hands. "Do you have an enmity with the eggs? Why are you doing this to them?"
Han Yuanjun quietly looked at the eggs in the pan and said seriously, "This time it was a mistake. I used too much force. I definitely won't do it again!"
With that, he turned off the fire and poured the contents out of the pan. After rinsing the pan with water, he placed it back on the stove. "Believe me. This time, it definitely won't be a problem."
Liang Zixuan said nothing as she stood there, smiling at him.
Han Yuanjun took the remaining two eggs. Then he thought for a moment and came to the conclusion that his method earlier mightn't be suitable, so he put one back into the basket and held the egg in his left hand.
He curled his right index finger and tried to tap the shell of the egg first. Since nothing happened, he increased his force. With a "pa" sound, his index finger finally penetrated directly into the eggshell.
Liang Zixuan laughed loudly in an unkind manner.
Han Yuanjun looked at Liang Zixuan and smiled. He was also angry with himself. He put the egg away and took the last egg. "I'll try again. This time, I'm sure it'll work."
Liang Zixuan snatched the egg from his hand. "Stop trying. Your method is wrong. There's no way it'll work. I'd better do it. Go outside and wait. You can eat later."
"No way!" Han Yuanjun stubbornly snatched back the egg. "I said that I'll cook for you, how can I go against my words? A man won't go against his words. Especially to his wife."
Liang Zixuan was powerless against him. She knew that if she left it to Han Yuanjun, she wouldn't be able to eat at all.
She sighed, "Let me teach you."
"Sure." Seeing that Liang Zixuan wanted to take the egg again, Han Yuanjun hurriedly protected it. "Tell me what to do, and I'll do it myself."
Liang Zixuan stood there and instructed him. "Pour some olive oil into the pan first."
Han Yuanjun set the egg down hesitantly. He was afraid that Liang Zixuan would take it away from him.
When Liang Zixuan saw the olive oil being poured in, she said, "Take an egg and gently tap it on the edge of the pan. Make a small hole."
Seeing that Han Yuanjun was so careful that he only made a small crack this time, she nodded with satisfaction. "Then take the egg with both hands and pull it out of the hole. Don't use too much force."
Although Han Yuanjun had never cooked before, his brain was still good. He remembered everything Liang Zixuan had said, and he controlled his strength well. He didn't waste another egg and took out three more from the fridge to fry them together.
While Han Yuanjun was frying the eggs, Liang Zixuan saw that the water in the pot was boiling. She put some noodles into the pot and threw in some vegetables.
After Han Yuanjun fried four eggs, Liang Zixuan's noodles were also ready.
Both of them worked together at a fast pace.
Han Yuanjun sniffed the fragrant noodles and the smell of the eggs and proudly said, "As expected, it's the most delicious dish in the world that I personally made."
Liang Zixuan nodded in agreement. "Yes, who would have thought that Young Master Han could cook? Being able to eat fried eggs made by Young Master Han is truly a blessing from my previous life."
When the words "previous life" were uttered, Han Yuanjun's face became a little strange. He looked at Liang Zixuan with a gentle gaze while his Adam's apple moved up and down uncomfortably. In a hoarse voice, he said, "If you want, I will cook it for you every day."
Liang Zixuan did not notice his strangeness. She took a bite of the fried egg and smiled contentedly. "How can I let you cook every day? Even if you do it once in a while, I feel very happy. "
Happy?
Han Yuanjun silently lowered his head. He felt that such happiness was not enough.
He didn't even know when Liang Zixuan's danger would arrive. He's really scared. He's scared that he won't be able to protect her.
Until Liang Zixuan finished eating, she did not even notice the subtle change in Han Yuanjun's heart. When they went to bed, Han Yuanjun's strength frightened her.
When she woke up the next day, she was unable to get out of bed.
Fortunately, it was the weekend, and since she had no classes, Liang Zixuan was confined to her bed for the first time.
Without turning on the alarm clock, she slept through the night. When she opened her eyes, she found the man next to her already awake.
He was leaning against the headboard, had a laptop on his lap, and was working on his work.
Liang Zixuan rubbed her eyes and felt a pain in her arm when she raised her hand. It hurt her as much as what she had experienced on the first day of military training.
"Hiss!" She hissed in pain.
Hearing her voice, Han Yuanjun put the laptop aside, lay down, and hugged her. "Why are you awake? It's the weekend, and no one is telling you to get up."
Liang Zixuan moved her legs and twisted her waist, grimacing in pain. "I can't get up even if I wanted to."
Han Yuanjun was confused, "Why?"
Liang Zixuan gloomily kicked him under the blanket. "Why don't you tell me?"
Han Yuanjun immediately understood and chuckled. He gently massaged Liang Zixuan's waist. "It's my fault. I didn't expect to be so fierce last night.. I just let myself have a good time."
