Although there were only two people eating, Pei Cheng thought that today was the joy of housewarming, and the sense of ritual was still very important, and after discussing with Yan Zhen, he decided to make four dishes and one soup.

After buying vegetables, Pei Cheng helped Yan Zhen pick fruits and yogurt, settled the bill, and took the initiative to walk out of the supermarket with a big bag full of ingredients. He seemed to say inadvertently, "If you want to go out to purchase in the future, you can come to me at any time and give you free labor." ”

Yan Zhen just smiled slightly, and did not respond directly. Mrs. Ling has already helped her hire an aunt to be responsible for her daily living, cooking and cleaning, this kind of thing of buying vegetables in the supermarket obviously does not need her to do it herself.

However, Pei Cheng's obscure way of dedication made people feel very comfortable, and Yan Zhen didn't feel offended at all. But she couldn't help but wonder from the bottom of her heart, Pei Cheng's love EQ is so high, is it as Mrs. Ling said, he is too busy with work and has no time to take care of his feelings, there is a long window period, and the last relationship was two years ago......

Thinking about it carefully, Yan Zhen felt that she was a little too suspicious, rather than suspecting that Pei Cheng was a veteran who had spent thousands of sails, and now that she was "old" and wanted to find a suitable "honest person" to marry home, she was more inclined to the other party to be really gentle and considerate, at least thinking about it would make her feel more comfortable. After all, the relationship between the two is too pro s and cons, which will make people feel like they are doing business, rather than being friends.

The two returned to the apartment, Pei Cheng and Yan Zhen cooperated tacitly and began to process the ingredients.

Yan Zhen was in charge of helping to wash the vegetables, and after washing, she was about to cut it, but was hurriedly stopped by Pei Cheng, "You still don't touch the knife, I look nervous, or I'll come." If you want to do something, go wash the fruit, and I'll show you a sweet and delicious fruit scoop later, and I happened to buy yogurt. ”

"Okay." Yan Zhen had to admit that she liked Pei Cheng very much. Such a pleasing rich and handsome man is willing to wash his hands and make soup, which makes her deeply understand his desire to "live a good life", which is really direct and simple.

Pei Cheng was wearing an apron and holding a spatula, stir-frying the vegetables very decently. He turned his head sideways and looked at Yan Zhen, who was carefully washing the fruit beside him, the corners of his lips hooked, and he couldn't help but smile.

He loved the smell of fireworks in the here and now. In winter, everything is depressed and cold, but the kitchen is steaming and fragrant. The husband and wife cooked a dinner together, the two ate the most ordinary home-cooked food, chatted with each other about the interesting things they encountered today or complained about a few troubles, this should be the atmosphere of "home", right?

For a moment, Pei Cheng wanted to say to Yan Zhen, let's try it. The words came to her mouth and swallowed back, Yan Zhen is different from him after all, her family is happy, she is still so young, is such an ordinary and warm family life too dull for her, maybe she doesn't yearn for it now.

Let's take our time. Pei Cheng looked at the radish stewed mutton in the pot, and thought, these were all raw at the beginning, they were not delicious and could not be eaten, weren't they also slowly stewed over low heat?

Four dishes and one soup were completed, and Pei Cheng brought it to the table. He looked at it and felt that it was a little bit worse, in order to show Yan Zhen that although he was thirty, he still pursued romance, and decisively opened the bottle of red wine he brought today, and when he was about to pour the wine, he heard the doorbell ring at the door.

Pei Cheng wondered, could it be that Mrs. Ling came over again? Or Yan Zhen just moved in today, or it may be a neighbor.

Yan Zhen went to the bathroom, but probably didn't hear it. Pei Cheng put down the red wine and didn't have time to take off his apron, of course, he was a little deliberate, after all, girls living alone should pay more attention to safety issues, whether it is a neighbor or a property, he is wearing an apron, which can also hint at the other party's intimate relationship with Yan Zhen, so that a lot of potential problems are solved.

Pei Cheng walked to the door, looked through the display screen, and found that the person standing outside was actually Ling Yanchen.

How could Lao Ling come over at this point in time, wasn't he on a business trip abroad? A trace of doubt flashed in Pei Cheng's mind, but he quickly reacted, although the Ling family has not officially announced it to the public yet, Lao Ling and Yan Zhen are now brother and sister, not to mention that Lao Ling also lives nearby, it is normal to come over and care about his sister.

Thinking about the link, Pei Cheng opened the door with a smile on his face, and greeted him like a master, "Lao Ling, what kind of wind blew you over?" ”

Ling Yanchen was carrying several paper bags in his hand, he didn't know what style and color scarf Yan Zhen liked, but she said that she wanted to be beautiful, and basically he bought everything he thought was good-looking. He had thought that when the door opened, he would immediately see the woman he had been thinking about day and night, but he never expected that there would be a man in front of him who should not have been here.

Rao is calm and calm like Ling Yanchen, and at this time, he couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Why are you here?" ”

Pei Cheng was slightly stunned, and then smiled and said, "Zhenzhen moved today, I'm here to help, I was cooking just now, you come in." ”

Zhenzhen? This was probably the first time that Ling Yanchen had fallen into confusion in thirty years of life. Pei Cheng said this, obviously he understood every word, how to put it together, he couldn't understand it at all?

Just as Ling Yanchen was thinking about it, Yan Zhen walked out of the bathroom, she casually tied her hair into a ponytail, and when she saw Pei Cheng standing at the door, she walked over curiously.

Yan Zhen poked her head out from behind Pei Cheng and found that the person outside the door was Ling Yanchen, surprised and surprised, "Big brother, why are you here?" Did you return home early? ”

Pei Cheng was wearing slippers and an apron, Yan Zhen was standing behind him, the two were very close, she looked like a bird, and Ling Yanchen stood alone outside the door, as if they had separated each other.

Ling Yanchen had always been smart, but he would rather he be a little stupid at this time. He quickly came back to his senses, his expression became more and more obscure, and the paper bag he was holding tightly in his hand was pinched and deformed. For the first time, he felt that the world was simply ridiculous.

Yan Zhen looked at Ling Yanchen's incomprehensible expression, and was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, after all, more than half a month ago, she was still his future brother-in-law, but now she was dating another man at home, and she was bumped into by him. Although she and Pei Cheng were arranged by Mrs. Ling, their relationship can only be regarded as friends at most if rounded up, but she doesn't know why she is so bottomless, think about it carefully, probably because she used to be too infatuated in front of Ling Yanchen......

Pei Cheng and Ling Yanchen were very familiar with each other, and pulled him into the door very naturally, "It's better to come early than to come by chance, this dish has just been prepared." Lao Ling, let me tell you, you have a good fortune today, and I cooked it myself. ”

Ling Yanchen withdrew the arm that was being pulled by Pei Cheng without a trace, but still followed in.

On the log dining table, there are four dishes and one soup, simple dishes, but full of homely atmosphere.

Yan Zhen was very eager to survive, and she took the initiative to sit next to Ling Yanchen.

Pei Cheng felt that he was so familiar with Lao Ling, and he didn't have too many worries, of course, he had to "value sex and ignore friends", so he took care of Yan Zhen throughout the whole process, served her vegetables, and reminded her to be careful of fish bones.

Pei Cheng knew what Yan Zhen's relationship with Ling Yanyu was before, and he could guess that Lao Ling might have a bad heart, but it doesn't matter, man, just wait for a drink and have a good chat after eating, I believe that Lao Ling is not such a stingy person.

Yan Zhen was really surprised to see Ling Yanchen's visit, and asked, "Big brother, didn't you say that you won't be back until next week?" You're done with everything over there? ”

Ling Yanchen didn't have the heart to eat at all, and when he heard Yan Zhen ask, he just nodded lightly.

Although she is not afraid of shadows, Yan Zhen is still a little worried, after all, she has just broken off the marriage contract with Ling Yanyu, and she has come into contact with Pei Cheng, if this person has a bigger brain, she will think that she is also cheating.

Yan Zhen couldn't guess what Ling Yanchen was thinking, and seeing that he didn't mean to chat, she was also very interested in no longer bothering to find a topic.

After eating, Pei Cheng said that he wanted to go out for a drink with Ling Yanchen.

The two walked out of the door together, Pei Cheng suddenly thought of something, and said to Ling Yanchen, "Old Ling, you wait for me, I'll go and say a word to Zhenzhen." ”

Ling Yanchen's face was expressionless, he turned sideways, and just happened to see himself in the elevator mirror. I thought it was unbelievable enough for her to call her brother, but I didn't expect that there were even more unbelievable things waiting for him.

Pei Cheng took advantage of Yan Zhen's still not closing the door, turned back and smiled at her, "Don't worry about the dishes and chopsticks, I'll let the part-time workers clean it up." ”

Yan Zhen shook her head, today is an exception, because she is moving, and Mrs. Ling has specially arranged it, so she will let Pei Cheng come in and let him make this dinner. But the relationship between the two is at best a blind date man and woman who are still in the observation period, in fact, they are not even ordinary friends, but they are enthusiastically introduced by their parents, and they also think that the conditions are suitable, and they get along for a short time under this premise. The relationship is very fragile, and perhaps tomorrow either of them will find that the other is not suitable, and there may be no need to contact each other.

"I have an aunt, don't bother you." Yan Zhen thought about it, and said very politely, "It's really not good to entertain today, obviously I'm going to invite you to dinner, but I'm going to trouble you to cook, next time I have a chance, I'll invite you to dinner again, don't you mind." ”

Pei Cheng smiled gently, "You are too outward, it's just a meal, it's very simple." You should be tired today, so rest early and we'll be in touch tomorrow. ”

When he was about to leave, Yan Zhen stopped him again and hesitated, "That...... If you want to drink, take it easy, big brother, he just got off the plane, and he didn't eat much for dinner, I'm afraid that he will be uncomfortable tomorrow if he gets drunk. ”

After all, Ling Yanchen was hospitalized not long ago because of stomach bleeding, and drinking alcohol so much hurts his stomach can still be avoided, and if he can't avoid it, he should drink as little as possible, otherwise it will be Ling Yanchen himself who suffers.

Pei Cheng made an ok gesture, indicating that he knew, "Your relationship is quite good, don't worry, I drink with Lao Ling secondly, and talking about things is the main thing." ”

"Hmm." Only then did Yan Zhen put her mind at ease and shook her hand at Pei Cheng to say goodbye.
