Li Xixue froze in front of the stove.

Lu Yang's chest pressed gently against her back, the warm touch coming through the thin nightgown, and she could clearly feel the body temperature coming from behind her.

Not only that, he was also holding his own waist with his other arm.

Li Xixue gently closed her eyes and then took a deep breath.

To be honest, if a man were to get this close to her, she would have slapped him long ago, but this time she didn't even resist.

The two people's hands overlapped, and the spatula stirred in the pot.

Lu Yang's hand remained firmly pressed on her wrist.

Li Xixue bit her lower lip, a slight blush rising to her cheeks.

She offered no resistance and allowed Lu Yang to do as he pleased.

Nourishes—

Pour the chopped tomatoes into the pot.

As the cooking fumes rose, a few tiny droplets of oil splattered out.

hiss--

Li Xixue pulled her arm back slightly.

Lu Yang reacted quickly, pulling her hand back behind his back, then reaching over to pick up the spatula and flipped the pot a couple of times.

"The fire doesn't need to be so big."

Lu Yang spoke almost into her earlobe.

Li Xixue's hand trembled slightly, and when her finger reached for the stove knob, she accidentally touched Lu Yang's wrist.

Her cheeks flushed even redder, and she immediately pulled back.

"I...I can do it myself."

"Okay, you can do it."

Lu Yang readily released his grip and took a step back.

Seeing that Lu Yang's body heat was gradually leaving his back, Li Xixue finally breathed a sigh of relief. She gripped the spatula again, and this time her movements were much more steady than before, at least it didn't feel like a struggle anymore.

Remove from heat, stir-fry, add salt...

Three minutes later.

A decent plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes is finally ready.

The color is normal, there is no charring, and there are no eggshell fragments.

"I did it this time."

Li Xixue emphasized.

"Yes, you made it."

Lu Yang nodded, then said, "However... I have to thank my master for his excellent guidance."

"Who asked you to be their master?"

Li Xixue didn't want to pay attention to this vain guy.

Lu Yang replied matter-of-factly, "I taught you step by step, word by word."

Li Xixue's temple throbbed.

How can this person be so shameless?

"You only taught me how to flip the pan a couple of times."

"That's still teaching. Sun Wukong learned the somersault cloud in just one night."

"..."

Li Xixue stared at him, her lips pressed into a thin line.

She wanted to argue, but it was indeed him who taught her.

This fact bothered her.

He got away with it again.

"I just made it myself," Li Xixue said coldly.

"That one just now?" Lu Yang recalled the plate of charcoal, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his face. "Was that called 'coming out'? That was called a crime scene."

"Lu Yang".

"Um?"

"Do you believe I'll dump this dish on your head?"

Lu Yang immediately shut up and submitted to the president.

Li Xixue carried the plate to the dining table and handed the chopsticks to Lu Yang.

"taste."

Lu Yang picked up a piece and chewed it twice.

The saltiness was just right, and the egg was tender while the tomato was soft.

"How is it?"

"Pass."

"Passing?"

Li Xixue paused for a moment.

She originally thought Lu Yang would say something sarcastic, like "better than the last lump of coal."

The result was just a passing grade.

Li Xixue didn't say anything, but picked up a piece and tasted it herself.

Yeah, it's not bad.

Although it can't compare to restaurants outside, at least it won't kill you.

"You'll do better next time."

She defined herself in this way.

This time, Lu Yang didn't argue with her.

The two sat at the dining table, with a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, a plate of braised pork belly, and two bowls of white rice.

Li Xixue only ate her own plate of scrambled eggs, and didn't even glance at the plate of braised pork.

Lu Yang was curious and picked up a piece of dark meat and put it in his mouth.

I chewed it twice.

"Pooh……"

He picked up his water glass and drank most of it.

Li Xixue frowned: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly understood what it means for hardship to turn into happiness."

"What do you mean?"

"It means this meat is more bitter than my life."

Li Xixue paused for a moment, then subtly moved the plate of braised pork closer to herself.

"If it doesn't taste good, then don't eat it."

Lu Yang wisely refrained from touching it again.

After a moment of silence.

Li Xixue's eyes flickered, and she suddenly spoke.

"tomorrow……"

"Um?"

"Come with me somewhere."

"Where to?"

"...My alma mater."

Lu Yang was stunned for a moment.

Li Xixue's alma mater.

What school is she from again?

He remembered seeing it on the president's resume before...

Tsinghua University and Peking University.

The top-ranked university in the country!

Why are you going back to your alma mater?

Lu Yang asked, puzzled.

Unlike herself, Li Xixue had already graduated from school long ago.

Li Xixue picked up a glass of ice water and took a sip: "Invited by the school."

Lu Yang paused for a moment: "Why would I invite you?"

"……speech."

Lu Yang said "Oh," then thought for a moment and asked, "You're participating in this?"

Li Xixue looked up at him, her expression a little stiff.

Lu Yang immediately said, "What I mean is, people of your level usually send a representative to read from a prepared statement, right?"

"It happens once a year."

Li Xixue was silent for two seconds: "Moreover, this time the principal personally requested that I go."

Lu Yang was speechless for a moment.

The presidents of Tsinghua and Peking Universities personally invited him?

Just how much influence does this woman have?

Lu Yang thought for a moment and said, "So what are you asking me to do with you? Be your bodyguard? Carry your bag? Or be your driver?"

Li Xixue fell silent.

She poked at the rice in the bowl with her chopsticks, one grain at a time.

"...No reason."

Seeing that she wasn't even bothering with excuses, Lu Yang sighed and said, "Alright, Mr. President, what time tomorrow?"

Wang Jianyuan's milk tea shop was closed for a week, and he was also busy with the paperwork for his business, so he didn't have much to do for the time being.

It wouldn't hurt to go with her.

Nine o'clock.

Li Xixue spoke directly.

After finishing the meal.

After cleaning up the mess she left behind, Lu Yang went to take a shower.

There's so much information today.

The commercial land, the 100 million yuan bet, and the fact that Li Xixue suddenly became virtuous.

He stood under the showerhead, hot water pouring down from above, the steam making the whole bathroom misty.

Speaking of which, I have to accompany her to Tsinghua and Peking Universities tomorrow.

Lu Yang thought about it and inexplicably felt like he was accompanying his wife back to her parents' home.

Forget it, I don't want to.

After drying his hair and putting on a loose T-shirt and shorts, Lu Yang came out of the bathroom.

However, just as he was walking down the corridor, he happened to pass by Li Xixue's master bedroom.

Then he suddenly stopped.

The door to the master bedroom was not closed at that moment.

It was open with a very wide gap.

You should know that ever since this woman moved in with him, the room door has always been locked.

Sometimes when he passed by, he could hear the sound of a lock coming from inside.

It made him almost think he was some kind of dangerous element.

What's going on today?
