18 Blowing Up The Kitchen

Si Yu returned home that night feeling a little tired. The moment she entered the house, she saw uncle Xu rushing out. "Madam, welcome back." Although uncle Xu was in a hurry, he did not forget to greet Si Yu.

"Uncle Xu, where are you hurrying to?" Si Yu asked curiously.

"Master is trying to cook, so I'm going to buy something," uncle Xu smiled awkwardly.

Heck, the last time Master used up all the fire extinguishers in the house when he cooked, he was so flustered that he didn't replace them. Master hadn't thought of cooking for a long time, so what was going on today?

Huh? Si Yu's eyes lit up. "Kun You is cooking?"

"Yes, Madam. Master is in the kitchen. You... You can go and take a look." Then, Uncle Xu left.

Si Yu's fatigue from the day was swept away, and she rushed to the kitchen excitedly. Kun You knew how to cook? Why had she never known about it and had never tried his cooking before?

However, she remembered that there had been a fire in Kun You's house. Although there were no casualties, the whole city knew about it at that time.

Kun You was wearing a dark gray apron in the kitchen, standing calmly by the stove, holding a knife in one hand and pressing the vegetables with the other. He started cutting them carefully, but he was probably so focused that he didn't even realize that Si Yu had already reached the kitchen door.

Klak... klak... klak...

The sound of vegetables being cut could be heard in the kitchen. Si Yu leaned against the kitchen door and quietly looked at his serious and handsome side profile. Under the warm light of the kitchen lamp, it seemed to be coated with a thin layer of golden light, which made him look much gentler, unlike the cold and distant him from before.

Si Yu suddenly felt that the person in front of her was actually quite nice. She had no idea why she hated him so much in her previous life.

After Kun You calmly cut the tomatoes, he turned around and took out an egg from the refrigerator. Today's first dish was scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and the second was... Forget it. We'll only about that after the first dish was done.

Because the refrigerator happened to be on the other side, Kun You's back was facing Si Yu the entire time he took the eggs. When he turned around after he took the eggs, he saw Si Yu leaning against the door and looking at him with a faint smile on his face, causing him to panic suddenly.

"You... When did you arrive?" Kun You pretended to be calm as he walked to the stove.

Si Yu straightened up. "I just arrived. You can even cook? Why have you never mentioned it before?"

"There are many things I can do. Lets find some time, and I'll tell them to you one by one."

Si Yu listened to the indescribable bewitchment in Kun You's voice. He was clearly talking about a very ordinary matter, but she just had to think about what happened in bed... Her face turned red.

"Rascal."

"No. How am I a rascal?" Kun You didn't understand. How did he sound like a rascal just now?

"I'm not talking to you anymore." Si Yu ran off after saying that. When she went upstairs, she could vaguely see uncle Xu returning with two fire extinguishers and running straight to the kitchen.

Si Yu's brows twitched. Kun You's cooking couldn't be that terrifying, right? Would it be some legendary kitchen explosion?

As for Kun You, the eggs had been beaten into egg liquid, and the tomatoes were cut. He turned on the flames and poured the oil in one go. However, when it was time to put the tomatoes in, Kun You's movements were slow. After hesitating for a long time, he decided to put the egg in first ...

While Si Yu was taking a shower, she heard a commotion downstairs. It seemed uncle Xu was giving orders. The sounds were faint and unclear, but something must have happened.

The kitchen was in chaos. The sprinklers on the ceiling had activated, and two servants were frantically spraying the stove with the dry powder fire extinguishers.

When Si Yu arrived at the kitchen in her pajamas, she was covered in dry powder and drenched in water. She looked unspeakably disheveled, especially on her face. She looked like a girl with smudged makeup, not unlike a little kitten.

"Pfft!" Kun You couldn't help but laugh out loud. He shot her a sharp look, only to see Si Yu take out the towel she had hidden behind her back and wave at him. She even waved the towel in her hand as if showing off, as if asking him if he had the foresight to bring the towel over.

Richard walked over, and the person in front of him smiled brightly. She threw the towel on his head and stood on tiptoes to wipe the dust off his head and face.

Kun You bent over slightly and lowered his head to let Si Yu wipe it. A strange feeling rose in his heart. Warmth? He didn't know how to describe it, but all he knew was that he wanted to protect Si Yu like this. He wanted them to be like this forever.

After Si Yu was done, she said, "Go up and shower first. I'll cook."

Upon hearing "I'll cook," Kun You's eyes lit up. "You know how to cook?"
