No one understands rebirth better than me

Chapter 311 A Woman Made of Water

"Hmm—~"

From the young girl's boudoir came a soft, coquettish lament.

"I finally managed to log on, and you made me lose so badly... Master!"

Luo Xiaobei slumped in front of the computer, wallowing in self-pity:
"They only do one event, and then they give so many of the rewards to this idiot... Humph! Why should he get them!"

"It's because I'm handsome."

Guan Ren's voice sounded smug in the earphones:

"Having a master is truly wonderful."

Then Luo Xiaobei heard the "clattering" of a keyboard.

Soon, Guan Ren's team chat appeared in the lower left corner of the chat box in "Wenjian OL".

[Guan Daxia 520: Master is the best! Master, I love you! Master is the greatest in the world!]

"..."

Luo Xiaobei's eyelids drooped immediately.

That wretched pig's head...!
Although it's a game.

Even though she's a cool and aloof master like the "beautiful girl teacher," she definitely wouldn't pay attention to a rebellious disciple she's never even met.

Guan Ren's words still made a certain childhood friend feel a little sour, and she promptly sent a "vomiting.jpg" emoji.

And what about the "beautiful girl teacher" side?

She was sitting on the ground, dividing things up.

Upon seeing Guan Ren's cheesy words, after a moment of silence, instead of continuing to be aloof as Luo Xiaobei had expected, she surprisingly replied with an emoji in the chat box.

[Beautiful female teacher: Heart.jpg]

"???"

Wow!

"Awooo! Hiss..."

"Luo Xiaobei, what's wrong?"

"You...you shouldn't interfere!"

Luo Xiaobei touched her ankle, her eyes welling up with tears.

She was so shocked that she suddenly stood up and accidentally cut her tender toe on the table leg.

However, this is the case.

Luo Xiaobei was still shocked by the reply from the "beautiful girl teacher".

Faced with that idiot's flattery, Master not only replied, but also sent a heart emoji?
This...this...this...

This master! When has he ever treated me like this?

So you're really biased all the way to the end?
If it weren't for the fact that his master and childhood friend had never met, Luo Xiaobei would have really wondered, just like Guan Ren said, whether his master was being biased towards him because Guan Ren was handsome.

……

dong dong dong-

"elder sister."

squeak-

"What is it, Yuri...?"

"Where are the noodles? I'm a little hungry, I'm thinking... oh?"

Gu Youli was slightly taken aback when she saw Gu Wancheng peeking out from the doorway.

Because on her sister's seemingly calm and beautiful face, Xiaolihua noticed a faint, unusual blush.

"elder sister…"

"Ok?"

Are you feeling unwell anywhere?

"Oh."

Gu Wancheng casually wiped her forehead:
“I was watching a horror movie, and your knocking startled me.”

"..."

elder sister?

Horror movies?
It feels so mismatched...

Gu Youli had never known that her sister watched horror movies. She stared blankly at her sister's cold face, unable to imagine her trembling under the covers.

but…

That blush on her face, like that of a shy young girl, is quite reasonable.

"Young Pear, are you hungry?"

"Yep."

Gu Youli nodded:

"Sister, you don't need to trouble yourself, I can cook the noodles myself."

Since the start of the school year, Gu Youli has clearly felt that her older sister, whose cooking skills are improving every day, has a stronger desire to cook than before, but it is also more tiring for her.

So I decided to make my own supper for tonight.

"Need not."

However, Gu Wancheng still decisively said:

"I'll make it. What would you like to eat? How about pickled cabbage and pork noodles?"

……

You should know that in the past, my younger sister rarely asked for a late-night snack.

Gu Wancheng always thought it was because she had a small appetite.

But I later found out that it was actually related to my cooking skills.

Therefore, Gu Wancheng was actually quite pleased that her younger sister was now asking for a late-night snack. She was pleased that her sister was eating more.

I am also pleased with the improvement in my cooking skills.

……

"I'll change out of my pajamas first, then I'll do it right away."

After Gu Wancheng finished speaking, she closed the door first.

She quickly changed out of her pajamas and put on her regular clothes, then suddenly remembered something and went to the laptop that was always open.

"..."

The screen is colorful.

But Gu Wancheng's gaze only fell on a red heart, focusing for a moment, and then a faint blush slowly appeared on her cool face again, the same kind that her sister had noticed earlier...

Snapped!
Close the notebook.

Gu Wancheng took a deep breath, suppressing the inexplicable rapid heartbeat in her chest.

Then he went out of the bedroom to make a late-night snack for his sister.

Sauerkraut and pork noodles.

Sauté chopped pickled cabbage in a small piece of lard until fragrant, pour boiling water over it, then turn off the heat and add slices of pork tenderloin coated in a thin egg white batter. Let them cook slowly until done, while noodles are cooked in a separate small pot…

Gu Wancheng's pretty face was full of seriousness, just like she was with her students at school, she was also very strict with herself.

"Three cuts for dumplings, two cuts for noodles... and rice no more than a finger's width..."

She murmured softly, reciting what someone had taught her.

As she carried him on her back, she could almost feel his voice echoing in her ears, which made Gu Wancheng's expression soften unconsciously.

……

A few months ago, Gu Wancheng would have thought that making a late-night snack involved so many steps must be very complicated.

However, she has now discovered that once she knows how to do it, it's not as troublesome as it sounds.

In the past, making this bowl of pickled cabbage and pork noodles might have been a rushed affair, a hurried and frantic process.

The worst part is that it tastes awful.

But now he is calm and composed, handling things with ease.

And it smells really good.

After finishing her meal, Gu Youli didn't forget to give her sister high praise, and even shared it with her boyfriend during the subsequent nighttime phone call.

"Guanren, how come my sister suddenly became such a good cook?"

"Uh...was it sudden? It feels alright...after all, some people learn things gradually and then suddenly make a breakthrough."

Guan Ren scratched his head, realizing that it wasn't something he was deliberately trying to hide from Xiao Lihua.

It was because of Gu Wancheng that they couldn't speak up without permission.

Unless Gu Wancheng reveals her true colors herself one day, Guan Ren won't care about answering Xiao Lihua's questions.

"I haven't had such delicious noodles in ages. You'll understand once you try them."

"Sigh, your sister is really good to you. I don't have that kind of luck."

"There will be."

Hearing her boyfriend say that, Gu Youli cheered him up:

"Guanren, I have good news for you. My sister hasn't said anything like 'stay away from Guanren' in front of me for a long time."

"..."

Guan Ren was speechless, and he had a little grumbling in his heart.

Good heavens, this woman…

So you used to talk bad about me in front of Xiaolihua every day...

Tsk tsk, I'll write this down in my notebook.

When I have the chance in the future, I'll have to use this old grudge as an excuse to punish her properly...

Little Pear Blossom is also looking forward to the day when "everyone being well is truly good".

I look forward to becoming a loving family with my boyfriend and sister.

"Maybe one day... my sister will cook noodles for Guan Ren too..."

Little Pear Blossom cherished this beautiful feeling in her heart, wrapped herself tightly in her little quilt, and fell asleep warmly.

Then, on the second day of the weekend, I got up early again despite the chill in the air.

The reason is that the water supply to my home has been cut off, and I need to pay the water bill.

This doesn't seem like a big deal.

But Guan Ren later learned that the Gu family had been using more water than before in the past few months.

The reason behind this left Guan Ren somewhat dumbfounded.

To put it bluntly, Gu Wancheng is so meticulous and detail-oriented in cooking that she wastes a lot of water when she cooks.

Not to mention that it takes a long time to wash vegetables.

Sometimes, meat needs to be washed several times after blanching.

The key is that during the cooking process, for example, if her hands get oily, she has to wash them; after chopping garlic, she has to wash her hands again.

Wash your hands after marinating meat, wash your hands after getting starch on your hands, wash your hands after touching the range hood...

In short, Gu Wancheng was washing her hands almost constantly while cooking the meal.

She could be considered a woman made of water...

Guan Ren smiled to himself as he sat by the classroom window, sipping his instant latte. He glanced at the desolate branches of the trees on campus outside and exhaled a puff of white air.

It's December already.

Time really flies.
