Chapter 98 Huo Zhizhou ate the dish cooked by his love rival

Jiang Ruan is currently busy preparing the dishes.

Watching her slender fingers constantly washing and chopping vegetables, Ye Yan subconsciously went to her side to help with everything, his feelings becoming somewhat complicated at that moment: "Have you been cooking for yourself all this time?"

Jiang Ruan: "Mm."

Ye Yanzhi: "I'll hire a nanny for you."

"No need." Jiang Ruan refused decisively, her cooking movements extremely skillful. "This is a good opportunity for growth."

Ye Yanzhi: "..."

Ye Yanzhi took the knife from her hand: "I'll do it."

"You promised to treat me, what kind of behavior is this?" Jiang Ruan genuinely wanted to treat him to a meal.

"I'm afraid your cooking will poison me." Ye Yanzhi and she, as well as Su Zhu, mostly bantered with each other. "For my own safety, it's better if I cook it myself."

Jiang Ruan retorted, "It's like you're saying what you're making won't poison me."

Ye Yanzhi: "This young master has a chef's certificate."

Jiang Ruan: "???"

Jiang Ruan initially didn't believe it, but when she saw him prepare one delicious dish after another that was perfect in color, aroma, and taste, she came to believe it.

Ye Yanzhi handed her a stir-fried dish, exuding confidence: "Try it and see if it tastes better than yours."

Jiang Ruan picked up a little bit with her chopsticks.

Um? !

Her eyes widened slightly, filled with surprise.

"How is it! Isn't it incredibly delicious!" Ye Yanzhi was confident in this regard.

He is a very picky eater, and Xiao Jiangjiang and Su Da Motou agree with everything he thinks is delicious.

He put in a lot of effort to hone his culinary skills so that one day he could win her heart through her stomach!

Jiang Ruan gave him a thumbs up: "Not bad!"

Ye Yanzhi laughed even more smugly.

Jiang Ruan served the dishes one by one, took two pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and was about to eat when there was a knock on the door.

Ye Yanzhi got up to open the door, asking as he did so, "Who is it?"

What catches the eye.

It was Huo Zhizhou's handsome and tall figure. He stood at the door with an indifferent expression, and there was no change in his eyes when he saw that it was him who had come to open the door.

Without a second thought, Ye Yanzhi slammed the door shut.

Huo Zhizhou reached out and stopped him.

Ye Yanzhi closed it with all his might.

The two went back and forth for a while, but the door remained firmly in place.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Ruan came out after serving the food and saw Ye Yanzhi bracing against the door with all his might. She walked towards him. "Who's outside?"

No sooner had he said that than Huo Zhizhou, who was standing outside, suddenly pushed the door open.

Ye Yanzhi: "???"

Ye Yanzhi's pupils widened in shock.

So he used all his strength just now, and he didn't even use his full power?!

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Ruan clearly disliked Huo Zhizhou.

"Sui Sui wants to wear that frog onesie pajamas." Huo Zhizhou casually made up an excuse, having remembered everything here perfectly after his first visit. "I'll get it for him."

Jiang Ruan didn't believe a single word of it.

Huo Zhizhou stepped inside, his eyes fixed straight ahead.

"You stand there, I'll go get it." Jiang Ruan called out to him, clearly disapproving of his going in. Huo Zhizhou obediently didn't move forward another step.

Jiang Ruan went to Sui Sui's room.

I took the frog-themed onesie pajamas out of the closet and put them on.

When she came out, Huo Zhizhou was already sitting at the dining table, picking up his chopsticks and starting to eat.

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Jiang Ruan stared at him.

Anyone who cares about their reputation or face would feel utterly ashamed at this moment.

"Sui Sui's clothes." She handed the bag to him, her eyes and words making her meaning clear: "You can go now."

Huo Zhizhou took the bag from her and put it aside. With his sleeves rolled up to reveal half of his forearm, he picked up his chopsticks and reached for the dish closest to him.

Um.

The taste is not bad.

It would be a waste to give it to Ye Yanzhi.

"Huo Zhizhou." Jiang Ruan felt that he was being a bit shameless.

"It's alright, let him eat." Ye Yanzhi didn't care at all, got up and got himself a bowl and chopsticks again, "There's so much food, you won't miss his mouth."

Huo Zhizhou's meal.

Hearing that...

It's as if he's the outsider.

"Are you in such a hurry to get rid of me because you're afraid I'll discover some unspeakable secret between the two of you?" A sudden anger rose from the bottom of his heart, causing him to speak recklessly.

“Not everyone is like you,” Jiang Ruan retorted. “Yan Zhi isn’t like Su Anran either!”

Huo Zhizhou's eyes grew increasingly dark.

Yan Zhi.

They did call each other intimately.

He slightly raised his eyes and asked, with a calm yet authoritative tone, "What kind of person is An Ran?"

"Shameless, acting like a thief in the dark." Jiang Ruan didn't tolerate it and spoke bluntly.

Huo Zhizhou's dark gaze fell on Ye Yanzhi, his aggressive eyes seeming to see right through him: "Then what do you call someone like Young Master Ye who knowingly runs to another person's house late at night?"

“We are friends,” Jiang Ruan said.

“An Ran and I are friends too,” Huo Zhizhou retorted, using her words to shut her up.

"Don't insult the word 'friend'." Jiang Ruan didn't know how he had the nerve to say that. "Who would kiss, sleep with, and live with a friend of the opposite sex, and then tell their wife they would support that friend for life while still married?"

"I've never seen anyone invite a male friend to their home at night behind their husband's back," Huo Zhizhou said without explanation.

The atmosphere between the two instantly became tense.

Neither of them would give way to the other.

Ye Yanzhi rested his chin on his hand, still with his usual casual and carefree personality: "I'm saying, President Huo."

Huo Zhizhou's indifferent and cold gaze shifted to him.

"They say you're obligated to take a bribe, and you're obligated to eat a meal." Ye Yanzhi looked at all the food he had picked up and said nonchalantly, "You've eaten so much of my food, and you still say that to me? Isn't that a bit too much?"

Huo Zhizhou: "?"

Huo Zhizhou's expression remained unchanged: "Yours?"

“Yes.” Ye Yanzhi seemed to have been waiting for this moment. “Although Xiao Jiangjiang bought the vegetables, I cooked each dish myself.”

Huo Zhizhou subconsciously looked at Jiang Ruan.

Almost instantly, he was certain that what Ye Yanzhi said was true.

Several cracks appeared on his face!

"You ate my food, and you still say these things to me." Ye Yanzhi covered his chest with his hand, looking extremely hurt. "I'm really hurt."

Huo Zhizhou gradually increased the force with which he held the chopsticks.

He remarked that the dishes Jiang Ruan made this time were somewhat different from the ones he had seen last time.

"However, I'm magnanimous and won't hold it against you." Ye Yanzhi picked up his chopsticks and began to eat in a cheerful mood. "After all, besides being Xiao Jiangjiang's soon-to-be ex-husband, you're also the father of Sui Sui."

These words pierced Huo Zhizhou's heart like a knife.

Crack!

The chopsticks broke under the force of his fingers.

Jiang Ruan quoted a price without hesitation: "One hundred yuan."

Huo Zhizhou looked up: "?"

Jiang Ruan landed on the broken chopsticks in his hand: "Compensation for the chopsticks."

"Making this kind of dirty money against your conscience, aren't you afraid of being punished one day?" Huo Zhizhou suppressed all his emotions, his eyes as dark as the night, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
