He picked up a spoon and scooped up a bite of food. He gently chewed.
Lin Wanwan looked at him nervously. “How is it?”
“The rice’s not flavorful enough. Taste, 20 marks.”
“…”
“Carrot was not evenly cut. Knife skills, 20 marks.”
“…”
Next, Lu Zhanbei gave a critical assessment in terms of the duration and degree of heating, the color, and the fragrance. Each of them was similarly given a 20-mark score.
Seeing his look of scorn, Lin Wanwan could not wait to pour that whole plate of rice over his face.
It was already not-bad of her to be willing to cook for him. He still dared to be picky!
“I’m not eating anymore. You eat them all yourself!”
She placed her chopsticks on the table, got up, and left.
Lu Zhanbei’s bantering voice could be heard from behind. “You’re not hungry anymore?”
She was already full from anger. How could she still be hungry?!
Lu Zhanbei deliberately elongated the pronunciation. “Actually… if you calculate properly, it adds up to 100 marks.”
Lin Wanwan turned back fiercely. His lips were reflected in her eyes.
“If I say that your looks, figure, character, world views and values, and viability are 20 marks each and they add up to 100 marks, but you are not just 100 marks in my heart… this is what Aristotle meant by the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.”
Unprepared for these romantic words, Lin Wanwan could not help but bite her lower lip.
Was he confessing his love to her?
Was he?
Her body stiffened for a while. After that, she smiled and said, “I… I’ve never read much. I don’t understand what you are talking about!”
After saying this, Lin Wanwan fled under his half-smiling gaze.
Someone hid in the bedroom for half an hour until a series of knocks broke through her thoughts.
“I’m leaving.”
Lin Wanwan hesitated for a while before opening the door. Seeing the man standing outside the door, she tried her best to pretend nothing had happened and said, “I’ll see you out.”
As she sent him to the door, Lu Zhanbei indicated for her to stop. He continued the topic that was stopped halfway before. “Regarding the gift, I’ll take it that silence means consent. I’ll prepare it for you.”
Lin Wanwan started to feel a little conflicted again. She did not have any status with Lu Zhanbei. It wasn’t good for her to keep accepting his help, right?
Lu Zhanbei suddenly reached out his hand and tapped on her forehead. Half-joking and half-pampering, he said, “Little lover, listen to me.”
Lin Wanwan coughed and asked in all seriousness, “Big financier, your little lover has owed you simply too much. Tell me, what should your little lover do to repay you?”
Lu Zhanbei did not like the way she mentioned repayment. After frowning a little, he curved his lips. “Come over here.”
Lin Wanwan obediently stepped forward. At this moment, Lu Zhanbei stretched out his hand fiercely and grabbed her waist.
He tugged lightly and Lin Wanwan fell uncontrollably into his warm embrace. After realizing that she could not break free anyway, she simply leaned against his chest in despair.
Not too long after, Lu Zhanbei released her. The gentleness in his eyes was completely restrained.
“That was enough.”
He looked at her deeply, turned around by himself, and headed outside.
Lin Wanwan was stunned. He did so many things for her and just a hug was enough?
Seeing Lu Zhanbei’s slender back view disappear from the corridor, Lin Wanwan suppressed the emotions that arose in her heart, turned around, and returned home.
As she walked past the living room, she realized that the pillows on the sofa had already been arranged very neatly from small to big, light to dark colors. Even the cups on the table were lined up very neatly.
