A question mark slowly surfaced in my mind.

Gu Xing, you're really ruthless! Lan, seeing your seemingly cute exterior was the biggest misunderstanding I ever had about you!

[If Gu Xing isn't ruthless, then Sister Nan will not only lose the competition, but also have no ingredients to use.]

[...Wasn't he being far too natural, without any psychological pressure at all?]

[Others might have these feelings, but Gu Xing doesn't. He might even be happy to be able to help Nanxi. This guy is just that kind of love-struck fool.]

[Yeah, what's so hard about Gu Xing? If I died and became a ghost, what would I care about?]

[...Your damn analogy, I got it right away!]

"I'm already dead, why would I care about this?"

While everyone else was still in shock, Nanxi had just stood up when she was helped back to a chair.

Gu Xing's voice was very gentle: "You must have been exhausted last night, so sit here and rest. Leave the rest to me."

Nanxi gave him a playful glare.

Then Gu Xing's smile became even brighter, and he returned to the kitchen utensils, attracting much attention, and began to cook with the bones he had brought back.

The entire process was very smooth, showing that the cook was very skilled.

Nanxi simply leaned lazily against the table next to her, admiring the handsome man doing something specifically for her; it was a truly pleasing sight.

Qiuqiu's voice suddenly appeared in my mind:

"Do all human men become like this after falling in love?"

Television sets seem to be like that, and so does every person Nanxi encounters.

Qiuqiu found this very puzzling.

Nanxi asked, "Perhaps?"

Qiuqiu was stunned.

Nanxi added, "Nothing in the world is certain; everything is subject to change."

But Qiuqiu has recently learned to grow up, I don't know what she's been watching.

These kinds of ghosts probably don't have much of a concept of conventional ethics, so they can't understand these emotions.

However, the result was completely different from what Nanxi had imagined.

"I don't understand... it's because I don't care."

Qiuqiu seemed to pause for a moment, then mumbled, "I am the great Eye of the Demon God, I have no interest in studying these matters of love and romance..."

The further he spoke, the softer his voice became.

Nanxi couldn't help but ask, "What?"

Qiuqiu's anger seemed to dissipate instantly, and she turned back to her usual cool, domineering, and arrogant demeanor: "Nanxi, I think Gu Xing looks so charming when he cooks. Isn't this the kind of love I see on TV?"

Gu Xing looks very strong.

So gentle and kind, and her cooking skills are also superb...

Just thinking about it makes my mouth water...

Nanxi suddenly perked up, thinking of something: "How about I have Gu Xing cook tonight? We can try his cooking together. You can eat first, and if it's good, then I'll eat."

Qiuqiu: "Okay!"

A busy man was unaware that his cooking skills had been secretly arranged by a person and a ball.

After the food was prepared, he didn't hesitate and brought the bone broth to the cold-faced security guard.

By this time, the other people who had cooked in the first batch had also finished and lined up to deliver the food to the property security guard.

The security guard lowered his head, and it looked as if water was flowing down his body endlessly. His tattered security uniform was soaked through and clung tightly to his body.

He glanced down at the meat soup Gu Xing handed him, and without even tasting it, he looked up and gave a score with a stiff smile.

"Nine points."

Gu Xing left with the meat soup, and the next person to step forward was Leng Nuo.

Faced with Leng Nuo's three dishes, the property security guard did not give them higher scores even though they included more varieties; he simply glanced at them indifferently.

"Seven points."

Leng Nuo froze instantly.

The people in her live stream room were immediately unhappy.

Why should I?!

[Yeah, Leng Nuo's cooking looks much better than the bone broth that Nanxi's husband made, right?]

Is this security guard showing favoritism? Is it because Nanxi's husband is also a ghost?

[I'm wondering if the security guard's evaluation criteria aren't based on the deliciousness of the food at all. Since this is an event to select the happiest family, the focus might be on what players can obtain from the ghost family members to get a higher score? If that's the case, then the bones Gu Xing obtained are quite valuable.]

[If the security guard is so capable, he should explain his evaluation criteria!]

Everyone in the live chat was talking about Leng Nuo, but unfortunately, their words couldn't reach the security guard through the screen.

Leng Nuo's smile froze for a moment. Without saying a word, she picked up her three dishes and chose to leave.

After all, it was she who proposed the competition, but in the two matches so far, I seem to be at a disadvantage...

Why is that?

She couldn't help but look in the direction of Nanxi, and saw that Nanxi was already holding a piece of candy and eating it with great relish.

These were snacks that Gu Xing brought for her after finishing everything. No one knew how much he had brought back from his trip.

Not only candy, but also a bag of snacks was prepared next to it, so that Nanxi wouldn't be bored. It was filled with delicious things like chicken feet and duck products.

"tasty."

Nanxi crunched loudly as she bit into the food. She had to admit, the food Gu Xing bought was really something else; it tasted delicious to eat!

As for whether the stomach can absorb this energy...

do not care!

eat!

"Ahem!"

A deliberately chosen voice rang out at this moment, a voice that everyone could hear.

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw Tao Hong standing in front of the security guard, carrying dishes.

Tao Hong made sure that Nanxi and Leng Nuo were looking at her before raising her voice and speaking loudly to the security guard in front of her.

"I'd like to ask, why is that dish from Nanxi rated so highly? Is this rating really fair?"

She planned to seek justice for the powerful Leng Nuo, hoping that he might remember her.

The security guard suddenly stopped moving, and raised his head with his dark eyes devoid of any emotion, making Tao Hong feel uneasy.

The security guard spoke up, succinctly: "Because the first dish was valuable, it received a higher score. And you, are you questioning my scoring criteria?"

The last sentence was spoken softly, seemingly a threat, containing an unspeakable ruthlessness.

"I……"

Tao Hong panicked for a moment, but then quickly realized something: "Right, do we have to cook this ourselves? But the first dish served wasn't made by Nanxi, it was clearly made by her husband!"

It seems that as long as this vulnerability is found, they can prove that they are right!

The security guard glanced at the exquisite and handsome man not far away, met his gaze, and flinched after meeting the sharpness hidden in his dark eyes before looking back at Tao Hong in front of him.

"This is a contest to select the happiest family. Doesn't this behavior prove that her family is happier? If you can do that, you can too. As for the food you cook..."

Two points.
