Chapter 5 Cooking

Behind the ordinary dark red retro wooden door, there was a huge world hidden -- the thirtieth floor had the best view of the city where one could overlook the entire city. There were unique floor-to-ceiling windows, uniform gray and white decoration of the entire apartment, and the minimalist furniture.

The whole apartment was gray.

She was a little stunned for a moment. When she came back to her senses, Ye Tang had already closed his eyes to rest on the dark grey handmade sofa.

The beam of light faintly felled on his side profile. His charming features were fascinating. It was the first time Lu Yichen had found this man so charming.

She raised her hand and looked at the watch. She planned to go to the office. She quietly left the door and gently closed it, afraid to alarm the people inside. She finally ran out of the apartment, only to find a cruel truth -- There was no vehicle.

These days, she had been driven to and from by the private car of the Ye family, and her bicycle used to be used for work was nowhere to be found. This made it very difficult for her to go to work in the future. If she took a taxi every day in such a remote place... Damn! Her purse will never get filled. Ye Tang was such a cold and strange person whom she didn't know well. She couldn't let him send her away, could she? Don't even think about it... Just forget it.

Thus, smart as she was, she asked her best male friend, Yang Guo, to buy a second-hand mountain bike for her. Driving at top speed, it took her 40 minutes to get home at the peak of the traffic jam.

"I'm still fit and healthy enough, aha." Lu Yichen happily pulled the bike into the garage. Next to her bike was a limited edition car of Rolls-Royce. Lu Yichen touched the smooth curve of the car and the advanced configuration of the engine. She might never understand in her life the world of the rich people. How damn rich!

The gap between the poor and the rich was too great...

Lu Yichen was obviously not used to being a married, and she did not treat her husband as her own. Naturally, she did not care about money and still lived a poor life herself.

When Ye Tang drove into the garage to park, he saw the off-color mountain bike of a inferior brand and his mouth twitched. He didn't need to think to know who it belonged to.

Then he called Chen Feng to carry the car and throw it away.

Chen Feng came all the way from the other side of the city, thinking something important had happened. But he only saw that Ye Tang pointed to an old bicycle and said to him, "Throw it away, now."

"..." Chen Feng was so angry that he wanted to scold him. "I came all the way here only because you want me to throw a bicycle. What the fuck is wrong with you?" Of course, facing the capital boss, Chen Feng still quietly carried the bike out of the street. Um... Trash can was too small to put it in.

It made things difficult to him. Dressed in a suit, he held the bicycle with one hand and stopped a high school boy on the side of the road who had just finished school with the other hand.

"?" Fear of meeting the bad guys appeared on his tender face.

"Little boy, you are going to walk home?" He was really like a creepy weird uncle.

"Yeah, yes." The little boy retreated and was about to run away, wondering if he had run into that kind of frauds people discussed on the internet.

"This bike, you can take it." Chen Feng gave the bike to the boy, with a cigarette in his mouth. "Um, study hard."

After saying that, he stepped into the luxury car and drove away, leaving the boy in a daze. "What?"

What happened? What should he tell his parents? A stranger gave him a bike on the way home from school? What? He was likely to get beaten by his parents.

There was seldom noise in the apartment, except for Aunt Wu who occasionally came to clean up and cook. It was almost silent.

As soon as Lu Yichen returned to the cold and silent apartment, she felt uncomfortable. She, who preferred jollification, couldn't help but turn on the TV and put on the DJ on the music stage. She flipped through the fridge and found that there were all kinds of beef, vegetables, and drinks. There was a row of pots and pans. What was she waiting for? Go! Let's cook! A bowl of egg-fried rice with beef was cooked in a few minutes. She squatted down in front of the big screen and began to watch 'Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf'. She suddenly choked up in the middle of eating. This wasn't seemed to be her home. She took a peek at the door. The master hadn't returned yet.

She took a few mouthfuls of rice and ran to the kitchen to clean up the mess. The entire space was filled with the sound of her knocking. Suddenly, she accidentally slipped onto the kitchen door and fell backwards. She got up in pain, her clothes were soaked, and the bowl was broken.

"What are you doing?" The man's magnetic voice arose. He looked down at her and felt a little funny seeing her embarrassing situation. "Be careful."

"I... I'm eating." Lu Yichen got up, holding the door and looked back at the broken bowl awkwardly.

"Eating on the floor?" Ye Tang shook his head helplessly. He pulled her over and said dotingly, "Go upstairs and wash up first."

Lu Yichen felt a little uncomfortable and ran upstairs with her hand and foot at the same side at the same time, looking very funny. She had always been restless and careless. Once she met Ye Tang, she felt as if she had met the great master of hell and didn't dare to move. She was like a docile little cat and did not even breathe.

It was only the first day of their wedding, yet she had actually made such a huge embarrassment in front of him.

Ye Tang rolled up his sleeves and picked up a broom to carefully clean up the mess on the floor. He looked at the mess on the floor and laughed. This woman was very interesting. He shook his head. Then he took out a few pieces of raw beef from the fridge and started a fire. He cooked it carefully and the whole process was done at a dash. In less than half an hour, a bowl of special and exquisite beef egg-fried rice was placed on the square mahogany table.

Lu Yichen loved egg-fried rice to the extreme. She usually relied on egg-fried rice for her work, not only because it was simple and easy to cook, but also because it was really delicious. The problem was that the egg-fried rice she made always had eggshells in it, and it always made a crisp sound when she ate it... Every time Lu Yichen comforted herself: after all, nutritionists said that eggshells was also very nutritious.

The fragrant egg-fried rice on the table attracted her deeply.

Ye Tang was lounging on the sofa, dealing with his work. He had just hung up one call then the next call came immediately. He gestured to her with his eyes. Lu Yichen slowly moved to the table. Her eyes were glowing as she stared at the fried rice. She kept swallowing. It was too fragrant...

"It's too delicious!" Lu Yichen sighed. Compared to this one, what kind of unsavory egg-fried rice had she eaten before? Why was this man so good at cooking?

After a little while, a large bowl of egg-fried rice filled her stomach. She almost licked the bowl clean and quietly took it to wash. She sat opposite Ye Tang with satisfaction. She was shocked by his powerful aura and did not dare to move. She was busy watching her phone.

"Yichen." Ye Tang suddenly remembered something. He put down the document in his hand and said slowly, "I threw away your bicycle."

"What? Throw it away?" Lu Yichen widened her eyes in disbelief. Damn it, I just bought that car. "Alright, then you just throw it away."

"We'll go to work together in the future." Ye Tang didn't allow her to refuse and got up to continue the conference call.
