Because he had cooked several meals for the three girls, he knew very well that the tastes of the three were different.

Shen Lan is not particularly picky about ingredients, but she is not spicy or happy.

Tang Lingfei likes to eat meat, and has a wide range of acceptance of various seasoning styles of sweet and sour.

Song Xingye doesn't eat spicy food, and prefers dishes that are not very stimulating but have a taste.

When Xu Zhe returned home with the plastic bag, he had already figured out what to do - he couldn't control the girls' inner thoughts, he could only control himself, prepare the meal, and then act at the opportunity.

As soon as he entered the house, he found that the house was as clean as new, much cleaner than when he had cleaned it himself.

Song Xingye and Tang Lingfei sat on the sofa, both looking down at their phones. Shen Lan stood by the window and quietly looked out the window. The room was quite quiet until Xu Zhe returned, and the eyes of the three of them focused on him.

"You're all done cleaning?" Xu Zhe asked.

Yet no one answered him.

Shen Lan's gaze moved to the two on the sofa. And Song Xingye and Tang Lingfei glanced at each other, but neither spoke.

For a while, Xu Zhe deeply felt what it meant that the three monks had no water to eat—if he faced one of the three alone, he would have already started chatting happily. But now, none of the three of them spoke, as if they were afraid that others would see through the details.

Xu Zhe shrugged his shoulders and went to the kitchen to cook.

At this time, Shen Lan walked over and finally asked, "Do you need help?" ”

Xu Zhe turned on the faucet to wash the vegetables and said, "No need, just help wash the dishes after eating." ”

Shen Lan smiled: "I like to cook, but I don't like to wash dishes, do you?" ”

Xu Zhe: "Yes, cooking is creative work, but washing dishes is not, I think it's boring." ”

Shen Lan said in a low voice: "I also think washing dishes is boring, but since I help you, then I don't mind." ”

Xu Zhe couldn't help but glance at her.

Shen Lan clasped her hands in front of her chest and leaned her shoulders against the kitchen door frame. The legs wrapped in black leggings stand crossed, and they look particularly slender and beautiful.

However, Xu Zhe just glanced at it more, then withdrew his gaze and continued to cook.

He noticed that where he was standing, he could still see the two people on the couch from this angle. In other words, the two of them could also notice where their gaze was drifting.

The house is small, there are few rooms, and the layout is straight, so you can see through it at a glance.

Shen Lan suddenly said softly: "Except for helping you here, I have nothing to do, so I can only be in a daze." ”

Xu Zhe: "There are algorithm books in the study, you can take a look." ”

Shen Lan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Can I enter your study?" ”

Xu Zhe replied generously: "Yes, in fact, it's not just the study, it doesn't matter if you enter the bedroom." ”

Shen Lan: "In addition to me, they can too?" ”

Xu Zhe: "I don't have anything unsightly in my house, of course I can." ”

If you want to say something unsightly, he really doesn't have it in his room, but there are some hidden folders in his laptop. However, compared to the collection of his previous life, it was still far from it.

Perhaps because of the greatly increased contact with the opposite sex in this life, he doesn't need it much anymore, whether it's a small movie or a first-person shooter mini-game. Although, so far, there has been no deeper physical contact than holding hands or hugging.

As soon as the three girls sat down, they found their favorite dishes in front of them.

The table is square, and there are four people at noon today, exactly one side per person. In addition to rice, four dishes were also placed on the table.

What was placed in front of Shen Lan was a pepper preserved egg. The spicy green pepper is stir-fried and then pounded, mixed with the cut preserved egg, and then drizzled with the sauce. You don't even need to move your chopsticks, just by smelling it, you can smell a spicy smell.

The closest to Tang Lingfei is the braised beef, which is slightly spicy, the amount of meat is very large, and the heat is just right.

What was placed in front of Song Xingye was roasted tofu with meat foam and scallions, salty and fresh, with the fragrance of scallion oil, and there was no spicy taste at all.

As for what Xu Zhe was in front of, it was a plate of boiled cabbage heart. This dish is the lightest, and it seems to show someone's state of mind at this time.

Shen Lan took the lead in praising and said, "Have you ever worshipped any chef?" I've never seen you make this dish before, and it's so delicious...... You'll have too many dishes. ”

Xu Zhe: "Actually, as long as you understand some basic principles, you can read more on the Internet, and you don't need to apprentice. ”

And Tang Lingfei was eating meat, but he didn't forget to show how familiar he was with someone. She said: "Uncle Xu's cooking is very delicious! So Xu Zhe is talented, which belongs to heredity. ”

Song Xingye said softly: "You have a lot of talent......"

"It's okay, make do."

Xu Zhe said this, and sandwiched another green vegetable for himself.

He felt that when he was with one of the three girls, he was very happy, and it was a different kind of fun. But once these three are gathered, plus themselves, and a situation of four people getting along is formed, it becomes extremely complicated and deep.

Every sentence seems to have to be carefully considered, which makes people quite tired.

Although the three girls were praising him just now, Xu Zhe could tell from it that they all seemed to have different thoughts.

Tang Lingfei wanted to say something more, but when she looked left and right, she saw that everyone seemed to be eating silently, so she stopped talking and concentrated on eating meat.

Song Xingye ate slowly and methodically, and the tofu she was focusing on didn't serve much, so she ate for a while, and the rice in the bowl didn't move much.

Shen Lan was the first to finish eating, stood up and said, "I'll go wash the pot first." When you're done, bring the bowl and plate. ”

Then, without waiting for others to grab the job, she got up and went to the kitchen and cleaned up.

The second one to finish eating was Xu Zhe. He picked up the empty bowl and chopsticks, went to the kitchen, and put them down.

Shen Lan was brushing the pot with a steel wool ball. The girl's outfit today has a cold and glamorous beauty, but at this time she is brushing the pot and washing the dishes, which forms a sharp contrast.

She glanced up and asked in a low voice, "What do you think if I rent a house around here too?" ”

Xu Zhe: "Uh, is it necessary? ”

If Shen Lan also rented a house and was in the same building, there would inevitably be scenes of four people getting together in the future. Just thinking about it made him feel troublesome.

It's still easier to go one-on-one, at most one-to-two, no matter how much, Xu Zhe really feels that he can't handle it.

Shen Lan noticed the embarrassment flashing on the young man's face, and smiled: "It's really unnecessary, I live well in the school." By the way, are your gifts ready? ”

There is only a little more than a week left before Shen Lan's birthday.

Xu Zhe touched the tip of his nose: "Still thinking." ”

"There's no need to be too solemn, anyway, as long as you're here, it's already my birthday present."

When she said this, Shen Lan lowered her voice extremely low, almost at the volume of whispering. Xu Zhe stared at her lips to determine what she was saying.

Obviously, the two outside the kitchen couldn't hear that.

Shen Lan didn't want them to hear it, and Xu Zhe had to admit that he didn't want it either.
