3337 Boss Is a Good Cook!

“I’ll pay for it!” Li Mochen rushed to pay. Leng Xiaoyao didn’t argue with him. She subconsciously thought that they didn’t need to care so much between them.

Why didn’t they need to care so much between each other? Their relationship was clearly very simple!

No, if they didn’t need to care about something, it should be Leng Xiaoyao’s effort towards Li Mochen. She owed him, but Li Mochen didn’t owe her anything!

Thinking about that, Leng Xiaoyao said, “How much is it? Let me transfer it to you! It’s not appropriate for me to ask you to pay when I’m the one buying things.”

Li Mochen was a bit hurt by Leng Xiaoyao’s estrangement, and he became a bit depressed. “You’re counting even this little money with me. Do you not want me to go eat with you?”

“No.” Leng Xiaoyao immediately denied. “I just feel that we’re only friends, so it’s not appropriate for you to pay.”

“What kind of relationship do you want us to have?” Li Mochen squinted his eyes slightly, his lips slightly curved, and he looked at Leng Xiaoyao with a playful and expectant gaze. Nevertheless, his gaze still didn’t dare to linger on her for too long.

Boom! Leng Xiaoyao felt her cheeks flush and her heart race.

Why did she feel like Li Mochen’s words were a bit ambiguous! Was she overthinking it, or was he really…?

“What kind of relationship do I want us to have? I don’t have any hopes for us to have any kind of relationship!” Leng Xiaoyao said anxiously.

On the way back, Leng Xiaoyao kept looking out the window, afraid to even look at Li Mochen.

Although Li Mochen was a blank slate in terms of romantic relationships, he wasn’t stupid. He could tell that Leng Xiaoyao was interested in him. If she wasn’t interested in him, why would she be nervous? Just like him.

Anyway, it wasn’t the time to talk about it. He would wait until her friends left.

When Leng Xiaoyao and Li Mochen came back with bags and packages, An Chenmeng and the others immediately surrounded them.

“Wow! Are you going to cook at home tonight?”

“Yes! Since we have the day off today, we might as well eat at home.” Leng Xiaoyao said, “Here are some fruits, let’s eat them first.”

Leng Xiaoyao washed the fruits and gave them to everyone to eat.

There were still a few hours before dinner time. Since they were all students, Li Mochen didn’t stay too long and went back first.

“Oh, boss. We saw that girl who had a conflict with us at the Capital University yesterday just now. We didn’t expect her to live here too, but that girl is really crazy. We didn’t even provoke her, but she came looking for trouble,” Xiong Manxin said.

Leng Xiaoyao was a little surprised to hear that and asked, “What happened later?”

She was worried that they would suffer, but it seemed that they didn’t.

“She couldn’t win the argument against us, so she left!” An Chenmeng said, looking proud.

“But will she come back to trouble you later? After all, her whole family lives here, and you’re alone.” Tong Xiaobei was slightly concerned.

“Right!” Wu Minmin also realized this problem.

“It’s okay. In this block, they dare not do anything to me. If we go out, they can’t do anything to me either. At worst, I’ll ask Brother Mochen to help! He knows many people in the capital city with special backgrounds,” Leng Xiaoyao said confidently. She wasn’t afraid of the Li family, let alone other families.

As soon as they heard that, everyone became curious.

“By the way, what’s Mr. Li’s background?”

“Yeah, yeah! Even Master Mo is polite to him.”

“It’s a secret.” Leng Xiaoyao smiled mysteriously and didn’t say anything because she didn’t know anything about Li Mochen except for his relationship with the Li family.

However, there was nothing to say about the relationship between Li Mochen and the Li family.

“Fine!”

Although they were disappointed, they didn’t ask more because it wasn’t nice to ask about someone’s secrets.

Leng Xiaoyao asked how much they spent on lunch today to reimburse them, which immediately caused them to feel angry.

“Boss, you’ve paid a lot of bills for us. Do we still need to ask for reimbursement for a meal? Are we still friends?”

“That’s right. You don’t have confidence in us.”

“We’re so embarrassed now.”

“Okay, okay, no reimbursement, no reimbursement.” Leng Xiaoyao quickly surrendered. It wasn’t her intention to treat them like this. She just felt that since she promised to cover their food and lodging, she had to follow through.

Since they didn’t want reimbursement, then she wouldn’t reimburse them!

Leng Xiaoyao chatted with them for a while, then went back to work in her room. At 5 pm, she went downstairs to cook.

An Chenmeng and the others offered to help but were rejected by Leng Xiaoyao. She knew that having these young ladies help would only make things more complicated.

Although she was also born in a rich family, Gu Ning didn’t treat her like a delicate flower. She had been doing things on her own since she was young, even learning how to cook at the age of ten. Cooking was a breeze for her, and she was quite good at it too.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting treated them with love and discipline, never showing any mercy.

That was why she and Xiaoran were so outstanding and independent.

At the age of fifteen, she was able to travel abroad with just Xiaoran and visited many places.

Thinking about Gu Ning and the others made Leng Xiaoyao feel sad. She missed them so much and wanted to go back!

After a moment of absent-mindedness, she suppressed these emotions and thought to herself: “Why think so much? I can see them in two years anyway.”

At 5:30 pm, Li Mochen came over and went straight to the kitchen to help Leng Xiaoyao.

“You’re a guest. How can I let a guest do housework?” Leng Xiaoyao refused his help.

“They’re all girls. I don’t know what to say to them. To avoid awkwardness, let me help you.” Li Mochen said, trying to make up an excuse to stay in the kitchen with Leng Xiaoyao.

Li Mochen wasn’t someone who relied on others for food and clothing. Although he rarely cooked, it didn’t mean that he couldn’t. He just wasn’t as good at it as Leng Xiaoyao.

An Chenmeng occasionally peeked into the kitchen, hoping to find out what was going on, but they couldn’t see anything.

Leng Xiaoyao and Li Mochen were both too nervous to say anything. They were so afraid of losing control of themselves.

The food was ready: pork rib and winter melon soup, six steamed crabs, a plate of boiled shrimp, three meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and one cold dish. It was more than enough for six people, with some leftovers.

Anyway, leftovers were better than not having enough food. Not having enough food would make Leng Xiaoyao look stingy.

“Boss, your cooking is amazing! Whoever marries you will be so lucky! Unlike us, we can’t even cook.” An Chenmeng said, looking at Li Mochen with meaningful eyes. This was clearly a hint.
