“No, I have to go home first to make some arrangements and prepare to welcome my God of Fortune.” Lu Qianling stood up and carried her school bag, looking full of vitality.
“Ah? What God of Fortune?” Her deskmate looked up at her in confusion and frowned slightly. “Don’t tell me you’re thinking of skipping class again?”
For the past two days, Lu Qianling had been quite serious in her classes. When the teachers of the various subjects saw that her seat was no longer vacant, they were very satisfied with her performance.
After keeping her class attendance full for the past few days, the other students found her more pleasing to the eye.
In order to maintain this state and not let herself have the thought of skipping class, Lu Qianling stayed in the school cafeteria to eat with everyone.
Seeing that she was in a hurry to go back, the classmates beside her were a little worried that she would not come back again.
“Why would I?” Lu Qianling patted her deskmate’s shoulder and said confidently, “Don’t worry, when I come back in the afternoon, I’ll bring you delicious food.”
“Then I’ll have pearl milk tea.”
“Sure. Transfer the money to me.”
Her deskmate took out her phone from her bag and transferred money to her.
“Lu Qianling, your Lu family is the richest family in Wei City after all. You’re not even willing to treat me to a cup of pearl milk tea. How stingy.”
“The Lu Family is rich, not me, Lu Qianling.”
After Lu Qianling received the transfer notification on WeChat, she quickly accepted the money and patted her deskmate’s head. “Be good. I’ll treat you to a drink in two days when I have enough money.”
By the time Lu Qianling returned from school, Madam Lu had already finished her meal.
Madam Lu put on her glasses again and sat in the living room, knitting the unfinished scarf. When she saw Lu Qianling return, there was a trace of disdain in her eyes. “Why didn’t you stay in school? Why did you come back?” “Second Brother and the rest are coming home tonight, so I came back to set up.”
When Madam Lu heard this, she sneered. “Do you think I don’t know about your superficial relationship with Second Brother? What bad ideas are you up to this time?”
“Who does Second Brother think he is? I’m not in the mood to argue with him.”
Lu Qianling came in with a bag of things that she had just bought from the supermarket and placed it on the coffee table. Then, she put down her bag and ran to the kitchen to find food.
She wandered around the kitchen and found nothing to eat. “Mom, where’s
Uncle Yuan? He didn’t cook today?”
“Uncle Yuan went back to rest after cooking.” Madam Lu was immersed in weaving the scarf, it was only then that she regained her senses. “I didn’t know you were back. I’m already full.”
“There’s no leftovers?”
Madam Lu said, “I didn’t leave any food behind. I asked Uncle Yuan not to make too much food for me. If I remember correctly, there’s still some leftover bread pieces on the table. Take them and eat them.”
“…” She really regretted not eating outside before coming back.
Fortunately, Lu Qianling was already used to it.
She came down from the kitchen, picked up the remaining sandwiches on the table, and warmed them up in the microwave.
While waiting, she couldn’t help but come to Madam Lu’s side to see how she knitted the scarf.
After a while, Lu Qianling took the initiative to say, “Mom, you’ve been knitting this scarf for a few days. Why isn’t it done yet?”
“What do you know? This is called “slow work produces fine work.” However, when she heard from Lu Qianling that Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen were coming back tonight, she started to feel anxious again.
She wanted to finish knitting this scarf as soon as Dossible. She could not let Meng Chuyuan think that she was useless and that she could not even knit a decent scarf after so long.
At this moment, Meng Chuyuan and the rest had already eaten, including Liao Jiake’s group. Qi Zhen’s group’s progress was slightly slower, and they had yet to finish preparing lunch.
It was not even nine o’clock when they returned from watching the dolphins, then it took them an hour to pack.
For some reason, Qi Yan came back today and said that she would cook lunch. She was very proactive at that time, scaring Qi Zhen and the audience in the live-stream.
[No way? The little princess wants to cook? If she’s kidnapped, just blink.]
[Why did she suddenly change her personality? Help, is there anyone who can explain this to me?]
[I don’t quite understand her mysterious actions. The sky cleared up and the clouds darkened. Who knows when she will reveal her true nature again next time? If not for Brother Qi Zhen, I would have skipped over her when I saw her.]
[Aiya, it’s fine. It’s fine as long as she does some work. It won’t be so hard on Brother Qi Zhen. Let’s not ask so much of her, hahahaha.]
[Maybe she’s wants to go back to the past. She wants to make up for her previous image of not working.]
[I feel that she’s a little scary. I don’t know what bad tricks she’s up to. My sister is like this. Every time she wants me to help her, she has to please me.]
Qi Zhen had never seen her cook at home, so when Qi Yan suggested cooking last week, he took the initiative to take over.
After all, they were filming a variety show and were in the countryside. They were not used to using the kitchen that relied on firewood. This was even more difficult for those who did not know how to cook.
Qi Yan was almost angry because the stove couldn’t burn. Fortunately, Qi Zhen realized that she was in a bad mood and went forward to help.
“Why don’t I do it?” Qi Zhen said.
Her movements were too slow. She had to cut the onions at the same length and aligned them bit by bit. Just preparing the vegetables took Qi Yan a lot of time.
Qi Zhen was worried and stood at the side to watch. He wanted to help her cut some vegetables, but Qi Yan was unwilling to give up the knife.
“No need. Just start a fire for me.” Qi Yan rejected him.
Qi Zhen squatted down and took the lighter from her.
As the two of them were close to each other and there was a stove in front of them, the cameraman could only stand at the side and record. Qi Yan happened to block the camera lens filming the live-stream.
As Qi Zhen lit the straw, he whispered to her, “What exactly do you want? Don’t force yourself if you don’t know how to do it. You don’t have to torture me like this. ”
Qi Yan also replied softly, “You’re the one who cooks every time. You’re always trying to be the good person.”
Coincidentally, they had sent out their phones early today, so Qi Yan had seen some of the comments online.
Now, everyone was praising her for having a sensible younger brother and criticizing her for not doing anything and being unreasonable and unclear. When she saw such comments, Qi Yan was about to explode from anger.
If not for the fact that she was still recording the variety show, she would not have the patience to stay in the kitchen and cook.
Qi Zhen couldn’t stand her sarcasm and sneered. “What are you saying? If I don’t cook, will you have anything to eat?”
Qi Yan did not continue to communicate with him because the fire in the stove was lit. She stood up and placed the dishes on the chopping board into the basin before bringing them back.
Seeing that she was unwilling to talk to him, Qi Zhen stood at the side.
Qi Zhen did not dare to leave the kitchen. After all, he did not know how good Qi Yan’s culinary skills were. He was afraid that she would not be able to handle it alone.
Qi Yan had never cooked before, but she had learned it well. Other than being a little afraid when the pot was spewing oil at the beginning, she was not flustered at all.
When she was about to add salt, Qi Zhen saw her scoop a spoonful of sugar and quickly reminded her, “That’s sugar…”
