Chapter 362: Mother’s Concern
“I’ll wait for your answer,” Tang Xinru said with some hope.
When Su Bei got home, she found that the house was not as lively as usual.
Da Bao and Gun Gun were not there. Were they reading in Da Bao’s room?
She pushed the door open and found that Da Bao’s room was empty.
“Da Bao? Gun Gun? Aunt Chen?”
“They’re all out. I’m in the kitchen,” Lu Heting’s voice came from the kitchen.
Su Bei hurried over and saw him with his sleeves rolled up, revealing his muscular forearms. He was holding a spatula with all kinds of ingredients on the side.
“What are you doing?” Su Bei knew that he could not cook.
Lu Heting also had an emergency training session that lasted the whole day. He planned to spend more time alone with Su Bei and cook dinner for her.
He regretted that he had never cared about cooking previously. Otherwise, he would not need to work so hard to train his skills at the last minute.
Lu Heting smiled. “I’ve learned how to cook, so I plan to be responsible for cooking three meals a day for our family.”
Su Bei snorted with laughter and said, “Mr. Lu, you’re already very busy with work every day. If you busy yourself with cooking, who’s going to help Mr. Weijian?”
“No matter how busy I am with work, it doesn’t mean that I can’t take care of my family.” Lu Heting picked up the vegetables. “I’m also a part of this family.”
Su Bei raised her eyebrows and smiled. “Do you need my help?”
“No, thanks. Go and have a rest. I made dessert and it’s outside. Try some first. But don’t eat too much, or you won’t be able to eat dinner.”
“Okay.” Su Bei sat down and tied her long chestnut-colored hair into a bun, revealing her beautiful neck.
The dessert that Lu Heting made was sweet soup. As for the taste, Su Bei could only say that if a person was willing to make it, his attitude was worthy of praise.
The kitchen was bustling with activity, but Lu Heting was quick. Soon, he brought out several dishes and a soup.
This was the result of his hard work all day.
He started off not knowing how to wash vegetables. Now, he could finish cooking an entire meal. Lu Heting had indeed conquered many mountains, using his excellent brain and memory to finish cooking these dishes.
Seeing the look on his face, Su Bei could not help but laugh. She took the chopsticks, picked up a piece of vegetable that looked like eggplant winter melon but was actually potato, and slowly tasted it.
“The presentation is lacking...”
Lu Heting was a little disappointed.
“But the taste is not bad,” Su Bei said sincerely.
Plus, his attitude was very good!
Lu Heting raised his eyebrows, and a trace of joy appeared on his usually calm face.
“Have some too!” Su Bei handed him the chopsticks.
Lu Heting took a bite. The taste was not as good as Su Bei’s cooking, but it was passable.
“This fish is really delicious,” Su Bei praised. It was a rare dish and tasted really good.
Lu Heting picked up more of it with his chopsticks and said, “Have more, then.”
Most importantly, the recipe of this dish was simple. All he needed to do was steam and season it.
“What about Da Bao and Gun Gun? When are they coming back? What will they eat?” Su Bei was suddenly worried, displayer a mother’s concern.
“Lu Weijian is free today, so he took them out to play. They can eat outside tonight.”
“But this is your first time cooking an entire meal. It’s a pity that they won’t get to eat it. But the fish can’t be kept. It won’t taste good...”
