Reborn and awakened, this time I won't be a love-struck fool.

As soon as I squatted down, Cha Cha came over enthusiastically.

While holding Lin Wu's hand, he hummed and groaned, as if he were hiding a motorcycle in his throat.

Lin Wu patted its little head. "I'll feed you right away."

She looked down and said, "Here, cranberry flavor..."

As soon as a small opening was made, Cha Cha's little nose twitched, and she immediately stuck out her tongue.

"You're back?"

Hearing the noise, Xu Jingwang came out of the kitchen.

Lin Wu raised her head.

He was wearing an apron that Lin Wu had carefully selected, pink and white checkered, with a white kitten reflected on the chest.

The apron is cute, but the person is clearly out of place with that cuteness.

He was wearing a black shirt with the cuffs rolled up, revealing his exceptionally slender wrists, and he was holding a spatula in his hand.

"Hmm."

Lin Wu asked with a smile, "What are we having for dinner tonight?"

"Steamed fish, cold dishes, and a soup." Xu Jingwang leaned lazily against the kitchen door, watching Lin Wu feed the kitten with his eyes downcast.

His cooking skills are limited, but enough for two people.

Anyway, he can eat anything, but Lin Wu has a filter; as long as her boyfriend makes it, it's super, super delicious.

The soup mentioned here is either tomato and egg soup or seaweed and egg drop soup.

Because Xu Jingwang only knows how to make these two soups.

"it is good."

After feeding Chacha a cat treat, Lin Wu gently patted Chacha's head, clapped her hands, and went to the kitchen.

Xu Jingwang was pouring egg mixture into the pot when Lin Wu leaned over and saw the egg mixture fall into the water, turning into beautiful egg flowers.

Lin Wu hugged his waist, "Don't put cilantro in it later."

Xu Jingwang picked up a spoon and stirred the soup. "Don't you like cilantro?"

"I don't like it anymore."

Lin Wu said, "I absolutely, absolutely, absolutely hate it."

"Fine," Xu Jingwang said, "I won't let go."

He had already chopped the cilantro, and there was a whole pile of it on the cutting board, because Lin Wu always loved to eat it.

Lin Wu pouted. "Did you steam rice?"

"Mmm." He turned around to get the salt, and when he came back, he leaned down and kissed Lin Wu on the cheek.

Lin Wu slapped his face away, "Don't ruin my beautiful makeup."

Actually, Lin Wu overslept at noon today and didn't put on any makeup. She just applied a layer of sunscreen before going to work.

"it is good."

He quickly responded and added a little salt to the pot.

"You put in too much," Lin Wu said.

"Is it a lot?"

Xu Jingwang stared seriously at the bubbling seaweed and egg drop soup in the pot, as if he were conducting academic research. "I don't think it's much."

It turns out that people who excel in academics are not necessarily talented at everything.

Playing video games or cooking are both a bit difficult for Xu Jingwang.

He has been cooking for almost two years, and he still thinks the most difficult thing is adding salt, because he can't control the amount.

So I always try to put in as little as possible, since I can always add more if it gets bland.

If it's too salty, there's nothing you can do about it.

"I think it's too much," Lin Wu said, dissatisfied. "I don't want to eat anymore."

"So what do you want to eat?" Xu Jingwang raised an eyebrow. "I'll get you some takeout."

Lin Wu: "..."

"I don't want to eat takeout either."

"Then go hungry."

The soup was ready. Xu Jingwang turned off the heat, and before putting the lid on, he glanced at Lin Wu again. "Really not adding cilantro?"

Lin Wu: "...Release."

He couldn't help but chuckle.

She curled the corners of her lips upwards. "Okay."

He put the chopped cilantro into the pot before putting the lid on.

The fish was still cooking in another wok.

Xu Jingwang lifted the lid, glanced at it, and then put it back.

Did your boss give you a hard time today?

"No," Lin Wu shook her head. "I'm just a little depressed."

"I can tell." He pretended to be serious. "You started finding fault and causing trouble as soon as you came in. It's only because I have a good temper that you're like this."

"Hehe," Lin Wu said, "I just found out today that my colleagues created a small group chat behind my back. They're going out for dinner tonight, and who knows what they'll say about me behind my back."

"Who would cricket you?" Xu Jingwang reached out and pinched her lips. "The one who wants to be your stepmother?"

"She's the group admin!" Lin Wu said angrily. "Every time I wear a piece of clothing, she buys the same one and says she hasn't had a chance to wear it yet. She's such an annoying copycat."

……

Liu Lerong, who was having dinner with her colleagues, sneezed.

Yang Yan sat next to her and subtly moved to the side.

A male colleague looked around and said, "Lin Wu didn't come again this time?"

"You'll see it when you get here, won't you?" Liu Lerong scoffed. "They wouldn't even look at me."

"What's there to look down on?" one girl said. "Aren't we all just ordinary working people?"

"What if they're hiding their identity?" Liu Lerong took a sip of beer. "Didn't you see how arrogant they are? The boss doesn't even bother with them?"

"Forget it," Yang Yan laughed. "If she had any hidden identity, she would have said so already. She's been with our station for years."

Luo Xurou was sitting not far away.

He heard these people chirping in the cricket forest mist.

He gripped the cup tightly, hesitating for a long time without having the courage to speak.

Even though he knew Lin Wu hadn't joined the group at all.

There were many people in the group, some of whom joined using alternate accounts, so no one knew who was in and who wasn't. Liu Lerong had guaranteed that the leaders would absolutely not be allowed in.

He hadn't noticed the bad relationship between Liu Lerong and Lin Wu before, but after tonight, he understood perfectly.

He just didn't dare to say it.

If he were to say anything now that Lin Wu had no idea there was a group chat, it would be disrespectful to his colleague, and Liu Lerong might hold a grudge against him.

He didn't want to offend this person.

After thinking for a while, he shut his mouth again, glanced down at the time, and saw that the third episode had already aired.

He opened his phone and started looking at it.

Skip the opening credits, and you'll see a familiar forest path.

The four pairs of guests headed from their respective rooms to the meeting point.

The first pair is a brother and sister. The way they get along is that the brother always dotes on his sister. At this moment, the brother is holding his sister's sun hat in his hand, and the two are walking forward together.

The second pair were cousins, complaining that they hadn't finished their makeup because they were in a rush.

The third pair, an aunt and niece, are close in age, but the aunt is of a higher generation. Their relationship tends to be confrontational, with each of them arguing back and forth.

Luo Xurou ate and watched until the fourth group of guests came out, at which point she put down her chicken leg.

Each group had costumes specially prepared by the production team.

I don't know if it was by drawing lots or how it was assigned, but the fourth group was wearing light pink team uniforms.

Lin Si had one hand in his pocket, and his hair was a little damp.

He was so tired that his face looked irritable.

The team uniform behind him was being pulled.

Lin Xun, still half-asleep, tugged at his clothes and followed behind him.

[Have you been possessed?]

When did you two have such a heartwarming moment?

[Quick, artist, this is so cute! This mouse is adorable!]
