Chapter 204 - The young master of your house likes my cooking.

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Pei Ge felt slightly overwhelmed by the kitchen before her, which, despite it not being very spacious, was bigger and better equipped than her house’s kitchen.

More importantly, its design was very regal.

While the kitchen was detached from Ji Ziming’s ward, its interior design was the same as the latter.

With white as the base color, it was also modernly decorated.

This was clearly a hospital yet the feeling of warmth and freshness it gave was like home.

She opened the fridge and found many fresh vegetables and plenty of fruit inside. The myriad of colors was a sight for sore eyes.

Opening the freezer, different types of nicely packed meat were in the compartment.

She blinked and muttered to herself, The fridge is already full, so there’s no need for him to have anything delivered.

However, just as she thought of this, a group of people entered the kitchen.

Seeing the group in black uniforms and one with a black hat, she tentatively asked, “You guys are....”

“Miss Pei, good morning. As you did not call us, we were unsure of what types of ingredients you require, so we brought all the fresh goods imported this morning.” The woman, who seemed to be the leader of this group as she was wearing a different outfit from the rest, smiled at her.

“... Huh?” Pei Ge was shocked. What did she mean by that? What freshly imported goods?

Seeing the baskets of vegetables and other ingredients, she said sillily, “The fridge is fully stocked with ingredients....”

“Miss Pei, our master only eats the freshest and the best ingredients. The food in the fridge is no longer fresh.” The middle-aged woman in a red jacket had a smile on her face, yet her tone of voice was distant and had a hint of censure.

“... Not fresh? The fruit and vegetables seem fresh to me, though. Clearly, they’ve just been put there today.” Her mouth twitched at the corners in exasperation.

She felt that her life views were constantly being put to the test after meeting Ji Ziming. The leaves of the vegetables in the fridge had yet to wither, so how could they not be fresh?

Pei Ge’s offhand remark had apparently made the woman unhappy as the smile on the latter’s face turned lopsided.

The woman walked toward a fish tank and said flatly, “This is the sea erythema that was air-flown from the Nansha waters today.”

Pei Ge looked at the container filled with red fish and muttered to herself, This fish looks so ugly.

“This wild donkey was hunted today.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“These are from organic farms.”

Listening to the woman speak with such arrogance and make a big deal out of her comment, Pei Ge could not help but wonder if it was really just about lunch.

As for the ingredients being air-flown, organic, et cetera – everything was the same to her.

“Xiao He, throw away everything in the fridge, lest Miss Pei mistakenly use them.” The middle-aged woman seemed to have seen through Pei Ge’s thoughts as she coldly gave this instruction to a man in uniform.

“Yes, Sister Yun!” The man quickly headed to the fridge.

“Ah? Throw them away?” Pei Ge watched the man open the fridge to throw the ingredients away and thought that them doing so was such a waste. “They are still fresh. It is wasteful to throw them away, so don’t.”

“Throw. I’m afraid of Miss Pei mistakenly using the wrong set of ingredients.” Sister Yun coldly looked at Pei Ge and no longer bothered to maintain her smile.

It seemed that she was very dissatisfied with Pei Ge.

Pei Ge always had an explosive temper, and seeing the look of contempt on the woman’s face, she reciprocated with unfriendliness, “Did CEO Ji ask you or me to make lunch for him? Never mind you taking matters into your hands and bringing all these ingredients over, but why do you keep on saying that I may be mistaken? Am I stupid?! One is in the fridge and another is outside; what will I mistake, then?! What do you mean by your words?!”

Seeing her angry state, Sister Yun was slightly stunned.

She, who was a long-time employee of the Ji family, had always been in charge of Ji Ziming’s diet.

She was initially assigned to prepare his daily meals during his stay in the hospital. After meticulously coming up with a whole week’s worth of menu, her duty was unexpectedly taken over by this little secretary.

Saying that she was miffed was not entirely accurate, as it was Ji Ziming’s order.

However, who knew that this little secretary, who was now in charge of their young master’s daily meals, would not know anything about food preparation! She even wanted to use the no-longer-fresh ingredients to cook food for him!

Saying that the ingredients in the fridge and the ones that they had just brought over were the same, how could this not anger her?!

“Miss Pei!” As if she were unfazed by Pei Ge’s outburst, Sister Yun raised her voice to ask, “Do you know how much a kilo of this sea erythema is? Also, are you aware that these vegetables can’t be bought by just anyone even if they have the money?” She looked at Pei Ge with expressionless eyes, yet her tone sounded disdainful.

“I don’t know and I don’t want to know.” Pei Ge was enraged by her look of disdain.

Damn! What is this woman trying to say?! Does it mean that it is good as long as it is expensive?!

“This auntie, how much do you think my cooking is worth?” Pei Ge sneered and intentionally derided Sister Yun. “I am not a professional chef and I can at most cook homemade meals. Therefore, to me, even if the ingredients cost 1,000,000 yuan, it won’t be any different from the ingredients that cost 5 yuan.”

Sister Yun’s face turned ghastly pale from anger at her words.

Thinking of their young master’s pickiness and this vulgar woman’s subpar cooking skills, Sister Yun could not help but want to chase her out!

“Yi. Unfortunately for you, your house’s young master likes my cooking. What can you do about that, then?” She grinned provocatively at Sister Yun.

Hmph! She hated high and mighty people who look down on others the most!

This is just a lunch, so what is the big deal?!

Will it kill her to speak politely?! Will it?!

“You!” Sister Yun pointed at her as if she wanted to say something.

However, just as a fight was about to break out, a clear and low male voice asked, “What are you all doing?”
