"I can drive myself to the villa," Qin Sheng said.
It was more convenient to drive herself. She didn't ask Nie Feng to pick her up.
Han Qing then hung up the phone in satisfaction.
"Are you going to stay with your mother-in-law at Gong Mochen's house?" Chu Xia moved closer to Qin Sheng and asked.
"Mother-in-law? I'm not married yet!" Qin Sheng pushed Chu Xia away.
"What you are now is basically the same as being married. You just don't have a certificate. Be careful. Future mothers-in-laws are hard to get along with!" Chu Xia teased Qin Sheng.
"Hurry up and go on a date with Ming Tai. Don't mind my business anymore," Qin Sheng said. After she said that, she walked to the parking lot of the resort and drove back to the villa.
When she arrived at Gong Mochen's villa, she saw Ye Wei walking towards her.
"Qin Sheng, you're back. Come to the dining room to eat. The meal will be ready soon," Ye Wei said.
"Why are you here?" Qin Sheng was surprised.
"Auntie's health isn't good. President Gong asked me to help Auntie recuperate. Come in and have a seat," Ye Wei said.
Qin Sheng felt like her brain was going backwards. This was her home. She had grown up here. Did she really need Ye Wei's permission to enter?
She strode into the dining room and saw Han Qing busy in the kitchen.
"Hello, Auntie. Let me help!" she said, walking in politely.
"You're back. Help me prepare the asparagus. I'll make asparagus and stir-fried shrimps for you." Han Qing was busy cooking the beef tenderloin with Hangzhou pepper.
Qin Sheng agreed and picked up the asparagus. The asparagus were very clean and straight. How was she going to prepare this thing?
If she was being honest, she had never done this kind of work before...
Looking at Qin Sheng who was in a daze, Han Qing urged, "Hurry up and make it. I need to use it soon!"
"Oh, sorry, I'll prepare it now," Qin Sheng said quickly.
Qin Sheng winced. She had no idea what to do! Did it need chopping? Peeling?
"Qin Sheng, I'll help you. You look confused. You have to break the old stem and remove the old skin outside so that it can be eaten," Ye Wei said.
She took the asparagus from Qin Sheng's hand and prepared it quickly.
"Ye Wei is really good at working. You are so good at housework even though you are a doctor!" Han Qing praised.
"These are all ordinary tasks. I can still do them. But I don't know how to cook so many dishes. Auntie is the best at that," Ye Wei said gently.
"I'm a housewife. If I can't cook well, what else can I do?" Han Qing said and took some clean plates out of the cupboard.
Qin Sheng finally found something to do. She took the plates and carried them to the dining room.
Obviously, she couldn't do anything in the kitchen, and Han Qing was much more satisfied with Ye Wei than her.
After the dishes were served, Gong Mochen walked into the dining room.
Han Qing waved at her son. "Mochen, sit down quickly. It's been a long time since you've tasted Mom's cooking, right? Come and have a taste!"
Gong Mochen's eyes were on Qin Sheng. He sized her up to check if there were any changes to her body. He wouldn't look away until he saw Qin Sheng was in perfect condition. Once he was satisfied, he sat next to Han Qing.
"Take a seat," he ordered.
Qin Sheng and Ye Wei sat opposite Gong Mochen and Han Qing.
Han Qing served Gong Mochen a dish. "This is steamed bun with lotus egg yolk. Try it!"
Gong Mochen looked at the dish and paused. He didn't eat.
Ye Wei quickly said, "Auntie, CEO Gong doesn't like sweet food. His favorite food is fried shrimp with asparagus."
Han Qing laughed. "As his mother, I don't know Mochen as well as you do. I was careless. Mochen doesn't like sweet food. Here, let me serve you fried shrimp with asparagus."
Smiling, Han Qing added, "It's fortunate that Ye Wei reminded me to cook this dish. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known that you liked it!"
Gong Mochen picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. "It's very delicious."
"Of course it's delicious. This dish wasn't cooked by me. It was cooked by Ye Wei. She said that if I stir-fry it too much, the asparagus will age!" Han Qing said as she continuously served Gong Mochen the shrimp stir-fried with asparagus.
"There's also the black garlic stir-fried liver tip. It's also something he likes to eat. In the past, every time he ate these two dishes, he was be able to eat two big bowls," Ye Wei said as she also picked up the spoon and served Gong Mochen the dish.
Qin Sheng silently ate the rice in her bowl. Her mind was blank. Gong Mochen liked to eat asparagus stir-fried shrimp and black garlic stir-fried liver tips. She only found out about it today...
She didn't like to eat asparagus, and she also didn't like to eat animal organs, so she had never cooked those two dishes before.
Gong Mochen placed some shrimp into Qin Sheng's bowl. "Why aren't you eating?"
The man asked in a deep voice.
Qin Sheng looked up at the man. "I don't have an appetite. I don't want to eat. I'm going upstairs to rest."
As she said this, she got up to leave. She really didn't have an appetite. She hadn't had a good appetite recently and didn't want to eat anything, not to mention anything that was made by Ye Wei.
"Stop! Finish your meal before you leave!" Gong Mochen ordered.
Nie Feng reported to him that Qin Sheng had not eaten anything for the whole day. She hadn't eaten her dinner. Did she not know that she would become ill if she didn't eat? Regardless of whether she liked it or not, she had to eat her meal.
"Yes, this was all made by Ye Wei. Don't let her down. Ye Wei made this tomato braised beef brisket for you. She said that you like it," Han Qing said.
Qin Sheng's heart twitched. She and Ye Wei didn't have many opportunities to eat together. They only had dinner together at the Qin family mansion.
The Qin family had more people to feed, and thus, more dishes. They wouldn't deliberately follow anyone's preferences. They would take turns to cook the recipes and not repeat them every day.
No one had paid attention to what she liked to eat.
However, Ye Wei knew that she liked to eat stewed beef brisket with tomatoes. Other than Gong Mochen, she couldn't think of anyone else who would tell Ye Wei this.
"I don't want to eat."
Thinking that Gong Mochen was the one who told Ye Wei, she felt sick to her stomach.
"Qin Sheng, you don't look well. I'm sorry I didn't manage to prepare your favorite lobster today. I'll buy it for you and cook it tomorrow," Ye Wei said.
Qin Sheng's stomach twitched. She hated Ye Wei's face. She was so gentle like water. If she didn't eat it, she would end up looking rude and ungrateful.
It was really rude of people to refuse to eat the dishes that had been cooked for them personally.
Be that as it may, she couldn't force herself to do something that she didn't want to do, and she certainly would never do something just to please someone!
"My stomach isn't feeling well, so I don't want to eat. I want to go upstairs to rest," she said.
"Your stomach isn't feeling well? I'll send you to the hospital!" Gong Mochen immediately stood up.
"There's no need to go to the hospital. You've forgotten that Ye Wei is a doctor. Let Ye Wei treat Qin Sheng," Han Qing said.
"Qin Sheng, sit down. I'll take a look at you." Ye Wei stood up and held Qin Sheng's arm, stopping her from leaving and sitting her down.
Qin Sheng shook off Ye Wei's hand as if she had touched poison. "I don't need to see a doctor!"
Ye Wei was thrown back and happened to bump into the maid who was bringing the soup over.
The hot soup spilled onto her back.
"Ah!" she cried out in pain.
"I'm sorry, Doctor Ye. I didn't know you were coming over!" The maid was frightened.
