Lin Xiaolu put her hands on her hips and stared at Mo Ke: "I heard you still want to play rock-paper-scissors? Come closer to me."

Moko flapped his wings and took two steps back: "Meow haha, I don't want to play anymore meow."

"Don't want to play?"

With a sneer, Lin Xiaolu raised her fist: "No, that won't do. Now I want to continue playing rock-paper-scissors with you. I'll use my hands and you use your face."

Moko shuddered and stepped back: "That's not a rock-paper-scissors game! Meow!"

After saying that, it turned around and flew to the stairwell, escaping towards the basement.

"Don't run! Stop!" Lin Xiaolu shouted and caught up with it, rushing downstairs with it.

Bai Jingxuan and Xia Liang, who stayed in the living room, just watched the two of them start fighting as soon as they met, and now they ran away without a trace. They could only look at each other helplessly.

"Don't worry about those two childish guys. Let's pack up the things we bought and put them in the refrigerator." Xia Liang said with a smile.

The two of them returned to the kitchen together and began to deal with the large and small plastic bags that were piled up in the kitchen.

Opening the plastic bags, Bai Jingxuan looked at the fresh vegetables packed in them. At first, she didn't think they were special, but after taking a closer look, she subconsciously exclaimed: "Sister Xia Liang, the vegetables you picked are of very high quality!"

Because the vegetables in the plastic bags are all of very good quality, even the worst ones are at least good quality.

“I am somewhat confident about this.”

Xia Liang said with some pride: "After all, I have lived alone for a long time, and I am very proficient in basic life skills such as buying groceries and cooking."

"That's amazing!" Bai Jingxuan praised earnestly, "I have to study hard too."

"It's a pity that they asked me to go shopping for groceries right around noon." Xia Liang tidied the refrigerator briskly. "The best ones have already been picked up in advance."

——"But I don't remember that the grocery shopping appointment would take four or five hours."

Lin Xiaolu's voice suddenly rang out above their heads. She came forward with Moco in one hand and one hand on her waist. "Bai Jingxuan and I have to eat takeout for lunch!"

"Even if I buy groceries as quickly as possible, I won't have enough time to make lunch."

Xia Liang smiled helplessly: "And I've already sent you a message to tell you that I won't be back at noon."

"You just want to eat takeout!" Mo Ke, who was held by her, shouted, "If you eat too much oil and salt, you will get acne sooner or later!"

"You don't need to worry about it!" Lin Xiaolu reached out and rubbed its head hard, saying unhappily.

After venting her emotions, she threw Moko aside, squatted in front of the plastic bag on the ground, picked at the edge of the bag, confirmed the contents, and looked up and said:

"Come to think of it, what we bought were all fresh seasonal vegetables. There were no pre-prepared dishes."

"You didn't say you wanted to buy pre-prepared meals."

After stuffing the vegetables in his hand into the refrigerator, Xia Liang turned around and said, "Besides, always eating industrial products is not good for your health. It is safer to make them yourself."

Lin Xiaolu didn't respond to her, but continued to look for something in the bag. After a while, she threw the bag aside and looked up and asked, "So, where's our dinner?"

"dinner?"

Xia Liang blinked twice, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

"I told you to bring back something you can eat in the evening, right?"

Lin Xiaolu folded her arms across her chest: "Now, where is our dinner?"

This sentence finally reactivated Xia Liang's memory. She also looked into the plastic bag. She was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ah, I forgot!"

"You really forgot!"

Lin Xiaolu pointed at her and said, "You still say that playing with classmates doesn't interfere with your work. Isn't this a big problem?"

"Well...I can't refute it." Xia Liang said honestly with his head down.

"Now, tell me, Imperial Kitchen Minister!"

Lin Xiaolu reached out and knocked on the refrigerator door loudly, pointing at Mo Ke who had just been scolded: "Where is my dinner? Be careful or I'll kill you!"

"Your Majesty, I deserve death."

Xia Liang smiled awkwardly and followed Lin Xiaolu's words and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, please give me a chance to make amends. I will do it right away."

"Well, I want to eat bird's nest shredded chicken soup, sea cucumber stewed with pork tendon, and mullet tongue stewed with bear paw!"

Taking back his hand, Lin Xiaolu named a few dishes in a clear voice: "If you don't see these dishes later, I will kill you!"

Xia Liang looked at the dishes he bought and confirmed the gap between reality and ideal. He could only wipe the sweat off his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, even a skilled cook cannot cook without rice. I cannot do this."

"behead!"

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

“…Well, I don’t know whether I should say this or not.”

Bai Jingxuan, who was standing by, looked at the two people's incomprehensible little drama, raised a hand, and said weakly: "It's already half past six."

Her words seemed to wind up a toy, causing the other two to look at her.

"Half past six?"

"six thirty!"

The two of them made a sound of alarm.

The reason why this time caused such a big reaction among them was because it represented one thing—Hong Siyu was about to arrive.

Ever since Cuiqiao left Fangting City and arranged for Hong Siyu to take care of them, every day, around six or seven o'clock, Hong Siyu would make a special trip to the secret base after work.

And if Hong Siyu arrived and found that the children hadn't eaten dinner yet...

"Is it too late to make dinner now?"

After exclaiming, Lin Xiaolu asked in a daze.

"If it's simple, maybe half an hour?"

Xia Liang fiddled with the ingredients in his hands with some embarrassment: "It should take less time to cook noodles, right?"

"So how long will it take for that girl... Hong Siyu to come over?"

"According to her get off work-off time, it will probably take her at most ten minutes. If it was earlier, she would have arrived by now, right?"

After Xia Liang finished speaking, she seemed to realize something and suddenly stopped. She looked at the ingredients in front of her with a fixed gaze, and then exchanged a glance with Lin Xiaolu.

Neither of them said anything, but the meaning expressed in their eyes was the same: there was big trouble.

During the time of taking care of the three little ones, Hong Siyu had walked into the kitchen confidently several times, but the results she produced made the girls ask her to leave the kitchen again.

All I can say is that when it comes to cooking, Hong Siyu's enthusiasm is worthy of recognition, but other than that there is nothing to recommend him.

Lin Xiaolu and Xia Liang were already familiar with her cooking skills, so they were on guard against the products of her cooking. But it was different with Moko. After drinking Hong Siyu's soup without any precautions, it fell headfirst onto the dining table and was moved aside, where it lay for a long time before it recovered.

Only Bai Jingxuan, for some reason, could endure the food that completely disrupted her taste buds and finished it with a calm face.

But since then, Lin Xiaolu, Xia Liang and Mo Ke all began to strongly oppose Hong Si's entry and exit of the kitchen of the secret base.

Unfortunately, even though they had explained the reason to Hong Siyu and made it clear that her cooking skills were very problematic, they still couldn't stop Hong Siyu's enthusiasm.

Despite the opposition from the three, Hong Siyu became more and more courageous, showing an attitude of "accepting the challenge" and went home to study and improve her cooking skills. Then, no one knew what she had studied, but she announced that she had "completed her evolution" and once again walked into the kitchen despite the obstruction.

The result was a table full of even more unpalatable dishes.

This time, even Bai Jingxuan looked embarrassed when faced with the dishes she cooked.

With his cooking skills so stable, naturally, no one wants Hong Siyu to continue cooking.

However, in this situation, if dinner is not ready, there is no guarantee that Hong Siyi, who has come to take care of the girls, will not suddenly feel like showing off his skills.

Lin Xiaolu didn't want her to show off her skills.

"What should I do? Should I order takeout?" Lin Xiaolu took out her phone and opened the ordering app. She stammered, "Come on, is it too late? How about I just transform and fly over to pick up the food?"

"Don't think about your takeaway at a time like this."

With a helpless smile, Xia Liang began to take off his coat: "Forget it, I wanted to go home and rest, but now I have to do it myself."

"Is it enough for one person?"

Lin Xiaolu suggested with some concern: "Can I help too?"

"You can do your best to help me if you don't make trouble." Xia Liang walked into the kitchen, took out a sleeve and put it on his arm, then walked to the stove: "I need you to help me hold something when I pass it to you."

"Just a small matter? No problem!" Lin Xiaolu said confidently.

"Or let me do it..." Bai Jingxuan wanted to follow into the kitchen, but was stopped outside the kitchen by Lin Xiaolu.

"Hot oil and knives are too dangerous, just wait until we finish!" This was her excuse.

As the work in the kitchen began, Xia Liang also became busy in front of the stove.

As for Lin Xiaolu, at first she was obediently waiting for Xia Liang to assign her a task, but as time passed, she found that there seemed to be no place for her to be used.

Out of boredom, she could only stand behind Xia Liang and point fingers at the work in his hands:

“Is there too much water here?”

"The shredded vegetables are too thick, and it's messy."

"I feel like the eggs weren't beaten evenly enough."

"The soup is so monotonous, I don't think it's as good as the one made by Delphinium..."

boom!

Xia Liang slammed the spatula in his hand heavily on the chopping board beside him, turned his head, and although there was a smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes: "Shut up."

Lin Xiaolu immediately shrank her head like a frightened quail.

The work in the kitchen continued.

In this way, Xia Liang acted at the fastest speed. In just over ten minutes, a simple bowl of noodles was ready. The two girls walked out of the kitchen carrying the cooked noodles and returned to the restaurant.

"Fortunately, that girl... Hong Siyu came late today." Lin Xiaolu held the bowl with both hands and breathed a sigh of relief. "If she had come and insisted on interfering, it would have been troublesome."

"You didn't play any role there, did you?"

Xia Liang narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Next time if you talk too much in the kitchen, it would be better to find out who has the knife."

"I got it..."

Lin Xiaolu responded in a muffled voice, stretched out her chopsticks to stir the bowl, picked out a string of noodles, and sucked it into her mouth.

Then, her expression became extremely strange.
