CEO’s Contract Sweet Wife

0With a "ka" sound, the blue flame suddenly sprung up, giving Wen Zhixia a fright. She immediately jumped a few steps back and turned her head back to face Easy with a mocking smile.    

    

"What are you laughing at? This is... I've never seen such a fire! "    

    

Wen Zhixia's explanation added a hint of a smile to Easy's face. He never thought that one day, he would be sitting in the kitchen and watching a clumsy woman cook.    

    

However, he had to be patient for the sake of eating.    

    

While she was waiting for the water in the pot to boil, Wen Zhixia adjusted her condition, took out the egg, filled the vegetables with water again, cut them into pieces, and put them into the pot.    

    

"What's the date of production?"    

    

A carefree voice suddenly sounded from behind her, asking about the reason without a doubt. However, the question still caused Wen Zhixia's following actions to freeze.    

    

"I... I bought it a week ago. "    

    

The fragrance of the cooked vegetables was very alluring, but Wen Zhixia was still a little worried. Her nervous voice made her sound very unconfident.    

    

Yi Yi didn't care about the answer. Actually, he knew the origin of the mask. Nanny Zhang had bought it a week ago on purpose. Nanny Zhang knew it was Sujin's birthday, so she wanted to make it for her.    

    

However, Sujin had asked for a leave of absence to go out for a gathering and hadn't had the chance to eat it.    

    

Since Rong Manor always procured fresh ingredients, it was actually very easy to guess the origin of the wrapped noodles. However, Wen Zhixia's carelessness caused the corner of her mouth to curl up easily, and the smile inside contained a pampering that he did not know of.    

    

"Chi chi" sounds continuously rang out. When the noodles were placed in the wok, the water ripples that had been pushed aside gradually covered the somewhat hot wok bottom and emitted sounds. It actually caused clouds to rise up in front of Wen Zhixia's eyes, and even her face was wet.    

    

"Alright, go get the tableware!"    

    

Wen Zhixia lost track of the time and place. She spoke familiarly, as if she were living with Lee Weixi. She cooked the noodles, Weixi arranged the bowls and chopsticks, and the two of them shared a big meal together.    

    

"Hmm?"    

    

Only then did she vaguely remember that this was no longer a small lair like before, but an unfamiliar place that caused her to feel fear. This was the Rong Manor.    

    

"Are you telling me to do something?"    

    

Wen Zhixia felt a wave of thirst in her throat. She swallowed with some difficulty. She wished she could take back what she had just said, but it was too late.    

    

The sound of the chair caused her heart to sink. She was afraid that she would be punished if she was caught off guard. Her back tensed up and her breathing became rapid.    

    

It was easy for him to lower his voice on purpose, but when he saw Wen Zhixia's nervous expression, the corner of his mouth slightly curled up, as if Wen Zhixia was always giving him surprises, letting him discover some interesting things.    

    

"I can bring it up."    

    

Her indifferent voice didn't have a trace of emotion, but strangely comforted Wen Zhixia's nervous heart. Today, she seemed to be a little casual towards Yi Yi, perhaps because she had always been unable to put on her CEO's airs.    

    

She carried the hot soup noodles onto a tray and walked to the dining table. When she saw the two sets of chopsticks neatly placed on the table, a flash of surprise appeared in her eyes, but she did not mention it.    

    

"He was clearly giving it to him. Why are there two pairs of chopsticks?"    

    

Although Wen Zhixia didn't ask, she was still able to see through her doubts with a single glance. She had a calm expression on her face and the corner of her mouth slightly curled up.    

    

His first thought upon hearing Wen Zhixia's instructions was that Wen Zhixia seemed to take him for someone else, and he was a bit unconcerned about it. However, he still got up and went to find the cupboard for the chopsticks and bowls.    

    

A long time ago, there seemed to be a woman who had been busy working for him in the kitchen. He had taken the bowl and chopsticks and sat with her for a meal.    

    

"Eat the noodles."    

    

Easily without saying anything else, he picked up his chopsticks and ate the noodles with eggs added by Wen Zhixia. He was neither fast nor slow, just like a noble king.    

    

Wen Zhixia, who was sitting opposite him, hesitated for a moment before she picked up her chopsticks and started to eat the noodles.    

    

Separated by a long table, the two of them did not speak. It was strangely harmonious and had a warm atmosphere to them.    

    

"Pack it up."    

    

Wen Zhixia, who was moving at a slow pace, had barely finished half a bowl of noodles when she saw the young man opposite her put down his chopsticks and turn to head upstairs.    

    

"You …"    

    

Wen Zhixia hesitated, but she didn't know what to say. Ask him if he wants more noodles? She was so conflicted that she didn't finish her sentence.    

    

"What else do you want?"    

    

It was easy to see Wen Zhixia's hesitant expression when she turned around, thinking that something was wrong as she looked at her with half-hidden brows.    

    

"No, go upstairs!"    

    

When Wen Zhixia saw that Yi Yeyu had turned around, she was shocked. She thought that she had talked too much. Both her hands were shaking in front of her eyes. A faint smile appeared on her lips.    

    

"Yes."    

    

Wen Zhixia finally relaxed after hearing the indifferent voice. She let out a light breath and didn't notice the smile on her face when she went upstairs.    

    

Leaving everything behind, Wen Zhixia hummed a tune and walked out of the kitchen. Her full stomach finally stopped growling, making her mood very good.    

    

"Miss Wen, if you want to open fire next time, you can go to the maid's room and call me."    

    

Wen Zhixia was startled by the person in front of her as soon as she left the kitchen. She didn't expect to see someone in front of her so suddenly, and her heart skipped a beat.    

    

"Nanny Zhang, how long have you been here? I only lit a fire because I was hungry, so there's no need to trouble you, old man. "    

    

Wen Zhixia had a polite smile on her face, but she knew that there was a hint of estrangement in that smile.    

    

It wasn't that she didn't notice that Nanny Zhang had always misunderstood her. Even though she had saved her before, she was still disliked by the elderly. If it wasn't for Yi Yi who was having dinner this time, Nanny Zhang probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to speak up.    

    

"You cook at home like this?"    

    

Nanny Zhang naturally saw through Wen Zhixia's evasion. However, she didn't mind and pretended to ask about other things. A trace of light flashed through her somewhat cloudy eyes.    

    

"I learned a bit from mom before, and my friend also taught me some cooking techniques, so I can make some simple food."    

    

When it came to this topic, Wen Zhixia wasn't as nervous as she was before. Nanny Zhang was older than her father, and she didn't even do anything about her stepmother's provocations and insults, let alone a gentle old man.    

    

Wen Zhixia respected her elders very much. This was what her parents had taught her since she was young. There were only two types of people in this world that could not be bothered. One was her elder, the other was a child, the former had experienced the baptism of time, while the latter was ignorant.    

    

She had a rare long chat with Nanny Zhang in the dark, and the two of them became more and more amenable to each other.
