Rong Yan hadnât finished speaking when she was forcibly pulled to sit down next to the dining table.
She had seen too many surprises tonight, so no matter what kind of romantic surprise she saw now, she wouldnât be too astonished anymore.
But when she saw the food laid out on the extravagant and beautiful dining table, she couldnât help but be stunned for a moment.
What was that seemingly burnt thing on the plate? Steak?
He had prepared a beautiful view, birthday gifts, and then this carefully prepared candlelit dinner turned out to be a meal of pitch-black, unidentifiable meat?!
âLi Shengxiao, this steakâ¦â She couldnât find the right adjective.
It was really ugly!
Perhaps her expression said it all, as she clearly saw the man opposite her pulling out a chair with a momentary look of awkwardness on his handsome face. However, he quickly sat down, his lips briefly parting, âI made it.â
âCough cough!â Rong Yan silently swallowed the words âWas the chef too busy to come homeâ and instead asked, âYou made it?â
How did he have time to do all this? Didnât he go to the company?
Could it be that he personally arranged everything here?
Rong Yanâs heartstrings were unexpectedly plucked.
Li Shengxiao had already returned to normal, his noble falcon-like eyes glanced at her, saying, âI learned from someone. The appearance isnât great, but the taste is still okay.â
Rong Yan really wanted to ask how he knew the taste was okay, but she wasnât going to be that petty. Knowing that the Western meal on the table was made by him, she briskly picked up the knife and fork beside her, cut a piece, and fed it into her mouth.
Li Shengxiao kept his gaze on her reaction, and seeing that she had taken a bite, he asked with the cutlery in his hands, âHow is it?â
Rong Yan chewed on the steak in her mouth, blinked her eyes.
How to put it, she could taste that the quality of the steak was very good, clearly made from a super expensive cut. As for the taste⦠it was just like what she saw. Other peopleâs steaks might be rare, medium, or well done, while hers wasâ thoroughly cooked! Extremely well done! The beef had a chewy and springy texture, not like a pan-seared steak, more like the feeling of grilled steak from a street stall.
But the taste was good anyway.
For her, as long as it wasnât without salt, she could accept it.
She swallowed a small piece of beef, her eyes curved into a smile as she gave her answer, âThe taste is not bad, itâs tastier than I imagined. Iâm not lying to you. You should try it too; youâll know once you try.â
Pleased with her fairly good review, Li Shengxiaoâs mood brightened, he elegantly cut a small piece and tasted it.
At the first bite, he frowned slightly. But seeing the person opposite eating so cheerfully, he suddenly felt the taste was indeed not bad. At least, he thought the steak was good as long as he was eating it together with her!
Meanwhile, at the Rong Family residence.
Jiang Meiqi sat on the couch with a livid complexion, furiously throwing her phone to the ground. Her expression was so frightening that it scared the servants too much to dare to pick it up for her.
âYou all go out; I can be here by myself.â Old Madame Jiang went over, picked up the phone from the ground, and instructed the nearby servants.
The servants, as if granted amnesty, said, âAlright.â
They ran faster than anything.
Once everyone had left, Old Madame Jiang replaced the phone on the table with a disapproving expression, saying to the madam on the couch, âYou shouldnât always make trouble with Nanfeng, youâre always like this, and it makes Nanfeng even less willing to come back.â
Jiang Meiqi was in a rage, and replied irritably, âLet him not come back then, he hasnât considered this place home for a long time. How often has he been home recently? Is this still his home? For him, this place is just a hotel where he comes and goes as he pleases!â
