However, my sister-in-law has important things to do.

He couldn't force anyone to stay.

And Si Wen is sick.
You can't leave her alone.

Xue Xing said helplessly:
"But I have to go back to Huicheng tomorrow."

What should Sister Si Wen do then?

For the first time in Xue Xing's life, he felt that his home was too far away.

It seems like an unbridgeable gap.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't jump over it.

Si Wen lowered her eyes slightly.

"Are you going back tomorrow?"

The tone was full of reluctance.

Xue Xing nodded:

"Yes, I asked my brother to help me apply for leave until tomorrow night. If I can't get back on time then... the consequences will be serious."

Subconsciously, Xue Xing didn't want Si Wen to know that his parents were an unenlightened pair.

Even though it was his fault.

However, he wanted to leave a good impression on Si Wen.

"Oh~"

Si Wen snorted inadvertently.

She knew that the academic workload in the third year of high school was very heavy.

Moreover, it happened at this critical moment, with only half a year left before the college entrance examination.

Timing is everything.

Time is the future.

If you don't make good use of your time, you're wasting your future.

Would Si Wen be willing to let Xue Xing do this?

The answer is of course no.

It is a very rare thing that he can come here from thousands of miles away.

Any higher demand would be excessive.

"Tomorrow... I should be completely well." Si Wen's voice was weak.

However, Xue Xing still heard it.

"?"

So amazing?

Just one night and it's completely healed?

Si Wen pretended to be relaxed and said:
"Don't worry, Xiaoxi won't leave me alone."

He looked at the time and it was already past five in the afternoon.

At this point, it’s almost time to prepare dinner.

After so much trouble, Sister Si Wen must be hungry.

"I... go see what to cook. What do you want to eat?" he asked.

Si Wen said, "Just keep it light."

"it is good."

Xue Xing stood up and walked out of Si Wen's room.

Come to the first floor.

Aunt Shen just happened to come in with a bag of ingredients.

Seeing Xue Xing, he hurriedly brought the ingredients over.

"Xue Xing, you came just in time. I was planning to cook dinner for you and Miss Si Wen, but the chairman just called me and asked me to go back immediately, so you need to take care of the dinner yourself."

"These are all fresh ingredients and easy to cook. Thank you for cooking them yourself."

Having said that, he handed all the ingredients to Xue Xing.

Xue Xing quickly took it and thanked him:
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Shen."

"I'm leaving first. Thank you for taking care of Miss Si Wen."

After saying that, Aunt Shen also left in a hurry.

That anxious look.

It is somewhat similar to Lin Xi.

What a coincidence.

Is everyone busy?
Xue Xing took the ingredients into the kitchen.

Then, open it and see what's inside.

There are pork, pig skulls, beef, chicken, fish, vegetables... and so on.

Just like what Aunt Shen said, it’s very fresh and nutritious.

And it’s all been dealt with.

Xue Xing just needs to cook it according to his own method.

Of course, you can also cook it according to the ingredients.

Cook directly in the pot.

There is a note.

This made Xue Xing suspicious.

Did Aunt Shen know in advance that I would have an emergency, so she prepared everything?

Don't think about it anymore,

Xue Xing first cooked a pot of soup.

This is a skill that Southerners have learned since birth.

The others don’t need to be cooked.

But soup, for sure.

And, it must be present at every meal.

Otherwise, it’s the same as not eating.

So, Xue Xing cooked the soup first.

Then she started washing rice again. "Sister Si Wen is still not well."

"Don't cook the rice so hard, add more water."

Xue Xing added water to the pot while muttering.

When he added more, he felt it was enough.

He turned off the faucet, plugged in the rice cooker, and pressed the switch.

Next comes preparing the dish.

Xue Xing doesn’t know how to cook complicated dishes.

He has no problem stir-frying vegetables.

This is also a must-have dish in the South.

I'm not very good at other dishes.

"Fortunately, I know how to steam spareribs."

Xue Xing secretly rejoiced.

He has loved eating spare ribs since he was a child.

So mom cooks often.

After all, even if you haven't eaten pork, you have seen a pig run away.

Just learned it.

"Two people, one soup, and two dishes, should be enough, right?"

Xue Xing asked doubtfully.

"That's enough to eat."

Suddenly, a slightly hoarse voice sounded from the door.

Xue Xing turned around and saw Si Wen leaning against the kitchen door frame with her arms folded, looking at him.

Xue Xing's heart suddenly beat violently, then returned to normal.

He asked hesitantly:

"Si...Sister Si Wen, why are you here?"

"Are you hungry? Wait a little longer, it will be ready soon."

Si Wen smiled slightly, stood up and walked in.

The originally spacious kitchen suddenly became small after Si Wen joined.

Xue Xing's breathing became difficult.

He portioned out the food to be cooked and put it on plates.

Then put the remaining vegetables in the refrigerator and cook them tomorrow.

His hands were shaking throughout the whole process.

"Xue Xing."

At this moment, Si Wen suddenly called his name.

Xue Xing couldn't help but tremble all over.
"Ah? Si...Sister Si Wen, what's wrong?"

Si Wen's smile deepened, and she said disapprovingly:

"It's okay, I just called you."

Xue Xing: "..."

Sister Si Wen, it's scary when you suddenly call someone's name like this, isn't it?
"Oh."

Xue Xing put the dishes away.

Turn around and work on the chops.

There's actually nothing to deal with.

Aunt Shen has prepared the shredded ginger and minced garlic.

Put it directly into the spareribs, add some oyster sauce, light soy sauce, fermented black beans, and cooking oil, and mix well.

Then put it in a steamer and steam it.

Si Wen stood aside and watched Xue Xing do all this.

She suddenly understood why Lin Xi always liked to squeeze in the kitchen with Xue Yang.

Watching someone prepare food for you is a very...

Happy thing.

happiness?

That's right.

Is happiness.

She hadn't understood the word before.

Now, I understand a little.

only……

Her eyes were fixed on Xue Xing's serious face.

At this moment, he was struggling with how many minutes would be appropriate to steam the spareribs.

After struggling for a while, he decided to set the time to be the same as the cooking time.

In this way, when the meal is ready, the spare ribs will be ready too.

By then, the soup was ready.

Then stir-fry some vegetables and you can eat it.

Xue Xing humphed a few times proudly.

This is the first time Xue Xing cooks for himself.

He thought the arrangement was perfect.

The young face is full of youthful confidence.

It's really attractive.

Si Wen was simply stunned.

When Xue Xing adjusted the time and prepared to rest, he turned around and saw Si Wen staring at him in a daze.

His face suddenly turned red again.

I actually forgot that Sister Si Wen was still here! (End of this chapter)
