Zongman, the beginning and Er Nai married

"Did Xia Chen come back from running in the morning?"

Looking at him in sportswear and sweating profusely, he probably got up early and ran in the morning.No wonder Xia Chen's title of "both civil and military" is circulating in the school.

That's right!Are geniuses working hard?

"I woke up early, so I wanted to get up and run, and it was the weekend and I didn't have any homework."

"Is that so..."

"Are you free, Kato-san?"

"Eh?"

"If you are free, can you accompany me to the bookstore? I want to buy some books about cooking and study them later"

"For me, there's nothing wrong with it."

"That was really helpful, see you later"

After Xia Chen finished speaking, he ran back home in a hurry.Only Megumi Kato, who was hesitant to speak, was left with his hand still in midair.

But is this really okay?

Forget it, no one will notice me anyway.Kato Megumi thought so.

"..."

After a while, Xia Chen in casual clothes appeared in front of Kato Megumi, which was a dress she had never seen in school.

The white shirt and blue jeans set off the youthful vigor of the teenager, and the slightly messy hairstyle does not lose the beauty.

Coupled with that deceitful face, Kato Megumi couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded.

But in the next second, these surprises were buried in her heart, and she returned to her usual innocence.

"I've been waiting for a long time, I just took a shower by the way"

Xia Chen trotted to Kato Megumi's side, with an apologetic look on his face.

Kato Megumi shook his head, expressing that he didn't care.

The two walked towards the bookstore in the city center while chatting aimlessly.

"By the way, student Xia Chen wants to buy anything other than cookbooks this time?"

"See if there are any new mystery novels?"

"Eh? Does student Xia Chen like these? I thought boys like light novels about two-dimensional genres."

"I've heard of it, but I haven't watched it. Because I mostly watch "Seven Deadly Sins" or "Devotion of Suspect X""

"If you keep talking like this, I will doubt whether student Xia Chen is an adolescent boy. It's really strange."

Does it mean that I'm not a boy because I don't read light novels?The corner of Xia Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't know how to refute for a moment.

Although he often heard boys discussing light novels when he was in class, he had no interest in it, and just silently read his favorite books from the sidelines.

Could it be that Megumi Kato was subtly influenced by their thoughts?

Stopping and stopping along the way, the two finally arrived at a nearby bookstore, and they looked very tall.

It is also printed on the facade: Immortal Chuan Library.

Xia Chen suddenly remembered that Dongtou Izana's favorite novel seemed to be published by Immortal Chuan Library.

Well, well, it's really a wonderful fate.

"This way, student Xia Chen."

Xia Chen, who was still in deep thought, was brought back to reality by Kato Megumi's voice, and saw her standing in the distance waving to him.

It seems that he has found the book Xia Chen needs.

"Is this what Xia Chen needs?"

Kato Megumi picked up two books and shook them in front of him, which read: "About [-] Dishes That Novice Chefs Can Get Started with", "Cuisines That Can Be Cooked by Just Follow"

The first one is okay, what the hell is the second one?

Xia Chen was a little speechless, how such a book could be put up, and it seemed to be a bestseller, made him a little puzzled.

"If Xia Chen thinks the first book is too difficult, you can choose the second book."

"Not at all, and it sure would be easy for me"

Seeing Kato Megumi's inexplicable smile, although he didn't make it obvious, Xia Chen still chose the first book.

It's just cooking, but it's not difficult for him.

After the selection, the two of them also planned to take a look around here, after all, they couldn't come here in vain.

"Does Mr. Xia Chen like to read comics?" Kato Megumi suddenly stopped Xiali at a booth with comics, grabbed a copy and asked.

"I don't like it very much, and... Kato-san, the book in your hand should not be a manga, if you insist, it's called a book"

"Eh?" Kato Megumi turned his head to look.

It's actually a cartoon of a rotten girl, and it's an adult-oriented one!

I saw a trace of blush unconsciously appearing on Kato Megumi's fair face, and her hands were still tightly grasping the hem of the skirt.

It was so embarrassing, Kato Megumi quickly put it back.

I didn't expect that it would be a book when I picked it up, and I recommended it to my classmates.Xia Chen must have misunderstood something, right?

Kato Megumi looked up at Xia Chen cautiously, but he didn't seem to care much, which made her heave a sigh of relief.

"Hey, Kato-san, how about this one?"

A copy of "After School" suddenly appeared in Xia Chen's hand, and the signature seemed to be the work of Keigo Higashino.

But Kato Megumi, who didn't understand this aspect, looked at the title of the book and thought it was a romance novel, tilted his head and asked, "Student Xia Chen doesn't like reading these novels?"

"Huh? I obviously like it very much."

"Why don't you try this "Love Metronome"? When I read it, I was also attracted by the characters in it."

Xia Chen took the novel she handed over, feeling a little puzzled: Why does this look different from mystery novels?

Signed: Xia Shizi?

Xia Chen carefully recalled the famous novelists in mystery novels, but none of them seemed to match.

With curiosity, Xia Chen turned to the first page.

"Isn't this... a light novel?"

"Eh? Didn't Xia Chen say that he likes it very much?" Kato Megumi pointed to "After School" in his hand, with doubts in his eyes.

"Kato-san won't think this is a romance novel..."

The corner of Xia Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and he handed over the novel in his hand.

Then, Kato Megumi showed the same expression as Xia Chen just now, but it was more embarrassing.

Kato Megumi didn't expect that he had a preconceived idea, and it was the second time!

"Well, since it was recommended by Kato-san, let me read it, maybe there will be a lot of gains."

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Xia Chen took the initiative to accept the novel.

(ps: Ask for flowers, ask for data!)

(Activity time: January 1st to February 21th)

Chapter 15: Cooking Disturbance! (Ask for a monthly pass!)

After finishing the trip to the bookstore, Xia Chen and the others came to the supermarket to buy some food and go back to do experiments.

Because he didn't understand the quality of the food and the price, Xia Chen followed Kato Megumi all the time, listening to her instructions.

Now Xia Chen is holding a supermarket shopping basket in his hand, which contains ingredients such as radishes, tofu, chicken drumsticks and milk.

"Student Xia Chen, aren't these enough?"

"Buy some more, anyway, the refrigerator is big enough to hold it"

Probably because Xia Chen felt that if he made another trip, he would trouble Megumi Kato, so he thought to buy more this time, so that he would not have to buy it so quickly next time.

Kato Megumi didn't say anything after listening, and then continued to help him choose the right ingredients.

Moreover, she also earnestly wrote down the things she needed, really like Mahiru's meticulous style of doing things.

After carefully confirming the content written on the notepad with cute patterns, she didn't look at the snack area but looked at the seasoning shelf on the other side.

Soy sauce and beer!Kato Megumi made such a lovely voice, as if he had discovered something?

"Is it a seasoning? It looks scary."

Seeing Kato Megumi holding soy sauce in one hand and beer in the other, Xia Chen was a little puzzled.

Soy sauce is also understandable, can you use beer in cooking?

As if seeing his doubts, Kato Kei raised the beer in Yang's hand and said, "Sometimes, beer can also be used as a condiment to help food get rid of the smell."

"That's it, I raised my posture..." Xia Chen silently wrote it down.

But it seems that because of the neon, minors can only buy one bottle per person.And the price looks expensive too.

But Xia Chen didn't care at all, he just picked up two bottles and put them in the shopping basket.

Because Xia Chen was born in a relatively wealthy family, he was able to live in such a clean and safe big house, and the living expenses were sufficient, so he didn't need to save money on food and expenses.

But Megumi Kato shook his head, picked up a bottle and put it back in the distance.

"Although Xia Chen seems to be financially independent, it's better to keep temperance."

"I always feel like Kato-san is like my mother..."

"Let's just pretend that classmate Xia Chen is praising me."

After that, the two stopped and went, filling the basket with the ingredients they bought, and they stopped only when they knew that Xia Chen couldn't lift it up.

"This should be enough, right?"

Xia Chen weighed the weight of the ingredients in his hand, with a satisfied smile on his face.
