Huang zhilan turned around and was surprised by their close approximation. A light red blush crept on her cheeks and she moved away a bit. Clearing her throat, she smiled awkwardy, "I only know how to cook basic dishes". She tucked her hair on the back of her esr in embarrassment.
Shouldn't a woman know how to cook? Look at her! She is embarrassing herself infront of gu junjie! What if he found her lazy?
Gu junjie chuckled. "You can learn. Miss Ke cooking is top notch. You can learn from her".
"Aiyaa....you are praising me too much. Young master Gu cooking is much more better than me," Ke liling smiled. She lookef at her darkened face hhsband and immediately knoe that he is jealous. She exchanged glances with him and pointed at the talking huang zhilan and gu junjie using her chin, indicating that they gotten along quite fast.
Huang peizhi pouted and walked to his wife. He nudged her a bit and said, "you are smiling to zhi only yet you didn't smile to me?"
"Tsk. You are acting like a child," despite her annoyed tone, there's gentleness layered on it. She smiled at him and giggled.
Huang peizhi handsome face softened seeing her smile. "Dear....earlier junjie asked me wether I'm capable or not to make you pregnant....," he gave her a knowing look and a teasing smile.
Ke liling blushed. Of course he is capable! She can't even keep up with his beastly actions on bed every night! She doubt that she probably could get pregnant.
The kitchen is large and although there's 4 people inside, it wasn't suffocating and tight. There are still some spaces left.
For the dinner, Huang peizhi and his wife cooked side dishes and vegetables while Gu junjie taught huang zhilan to cook simple dishes.
"You actually know how to cook?" Huang zhilan looked at the man who was stir-frying the ingredients skilfully. If it was her, the fate of the ingredients may be not good. The dush might be ended up burnt.
Gu junjie smiled, "I lived alone after I took over Gu corporation and I didn't like to have mamy servants around so I cook myself," as he spoke, he put some sauce on the wok and then put the beautifully sliced meat.
"At least your cutting skills is good," he looked at the sliced meat and nodded.
Huang zhilan giggled and she have a smug look on her face. "So...brother Gu, do you like to eat desserts?"
"Why?"
"As my apology token for pushing yoy away earlier and my gratitude for saving me...." Huang zhilan voice become low and low until it turned to a whisper. She was so shy that she played with her fingers, as if its the most amazing thing in the world.
Gu junjie was ataken back. He glanced at Huang peizhi and Ke liling who was urging him to agree. He looked back at huang zhilan and smiled. "You want to bake me a cake?"
Huang zhilan lips parted a bit and she looked away, avoiding his smiling gaze and didn't say anything. She nibbled on her lower lip and just nodded.
"Sure. But give me an edible cale. I don't want to eat a burnt cake," He teased and his heart stopped beating seeing huang zhilan blushed heavily. Its not like he have never seen her blushing but its the first time she blushed heavily.
Huang peizhi was looked at the man who was stunned by his sister mockingly from afar, "ha, look at him. Just a smile can make him dazed, I wonder if zhi gave him a kiss, would he turned dumb?"
Ke liling just shook her head and hold her husband's arm. "Lets give young master Gu some space alone". She dragged him out after telling huang zhilan that she want to have a rest first.
Huang zhilan realized that she was alone with gu junjie alone for the first time ever and she couldn't help but nervous and excited at the same time. She peeked at the man and she jolted a bit when she saw that he have been staring her for the whole time.
then he must have saw her peeking at him! Ahhhhh!!! Huang zhilan, what have gotten into you!?
Her heart beats faster and she always blushed when she talked to him. Not only that, she felt safe and secure with him and she want to stay like that forever. Huang zhilan eyes widened a bit when she finally reached her conclusion.
Have.....have she fallen for him?
Is that why she was so afraid that he would misunderstood her?
Seeing her suddenly turned quiet and the changing expressions of shock and fear on her face, Gu junjie frowned, thinking that she was thinking back of the incident earlier. He finished his cooking and turnwd off the stove.
"Are you okay?" He tapped her shoulder to get her reactuon and was relieved seeing her nod but all of a sudden he was dissapointed seeing her avoiding his gaze as if she tried to hide something.
"Anyway, I will give Assistant He the cake tomorrow and he will give it to you," huang zhilan smiled.
Gu junjie continued to stare at her.
Feeling a bit nervous and uncomfortable under his examining gaze, Huang zhilan smiled awkwardly. "What is it?"
"Zhilan, why are you avoiding my gaze?" Gu junjie crossed his arms and leaned on the cabinet, staring at her without shifting.
