He saw that Yangyang seemed to like Sister Qian’s creamy mushroom soup, so he wanted her to teach him how to make it.
Sister Qian agreed. She had finally found something important to do. “You can only win over a woman’s heart by winning over her stomach.”
Yi Juncheng felt that it made sense. It wasn’t that he didn’t know how to cook before. In fact, he was very good at it, especially his knife skills. They were top-notch. Sister Qian was full of praise for him. He didn’t know if she was genuinely praising him or if she was just flattering him. In short, she said that his knife skills were a hundred times better than hers.
After making the soup, Sister Qian saw that the soup looked good. She praised it and took a sip. Her eyes froze. Then, she smiled and said, “Not bad, not bad.”
“Out of 100 points, how much would you give it?”
Yi Juncheng wasn’t easy to fool. He secretly thought that if the soup didn’t reach 100 points, he wouldn’t give it to Yangyang to drink.
“…90, I think.”
“I’ll do it again.” Yi Juncheng’s face was serious as he stood up again.
“Huh?” Sister Qian thought that she was hallucinating. After all, this soup was not a fast dish. It took two hours to boil, and one had to keep an eye on the fire.
Yi Juncheng was very persistent and had learned from his previous experience. In order to prevent Yangyang from coming back and not being able to eat, he quickly made the soup.
After she was done, Sister Qian’s brows relaxed. “Not bad. You improved quickly. You get 98 this time.”
“I’ll do it again.”
“…”
The corners of Sister Qian’s mouth twitched, and it was difficult for her to smile. She felt that this was very similar to a game she played when she was young. The other party would think of a number, then she had to guess it. She would slowly narrow the range. If she was lucky, she would guess it in a while. If she was unlucky, she would keep having to make guesses.
Unfortunately, she was the unlucky one here!
In the end, Yi Juncheng, who had finally gotten 100 points, was relieved. Sister Qian was also relieved. However, Yi Juncheng took a spoon and tasted it himself. He immediately frowned.
Sister Qian’s heart was in her throat.
“I’ll do it again.”
“…”
He finally attained perfectionism.
It took a whole day of making soup to achieve this result. Sister Qian didn’t even have time to tell Miss. She wanted to remind Miss not to give any harsh critiques.
Otherwise, this master would have to cook soup for days.
However, Sister Qian didn’t know that it was useless even if she told Sheng Yang. She was so honest that she would only tell the truth.
Sister Qian watched in fear. Fortunately, the outcome was not bad.
Sheng Yang’s eyes relaxed. Her beautiful face was shockingly beautiful, and the smile on her face was like the finishing touch. “It’s delicious.”
Yi Juncheng nodded. “I only did it once and I already succeeded. It seems I have a talent for this. If you want anything else to eat in the future, I’ll cook it for you.”
Sister Qian was speechless.
‘Young Master Yi, doesn’t your conscience hurt?’
After dinner, it was time for the two of them to go about their own business. However, this time, they did not work separately.
Yi Juncheng wrapped Sheng Yang in his arms. He read his document, while she read hers.
Sheng Yang was bored reading only one document. Since she still had the energy, she decided to read his document at the same time. There was a lot of military vocabulary.
“What’s this?”
Yi Juncheng looked at the top of her head and smiled. “I’m ready to do business in that area.”
The Tong family had cut off their supply of goods to them, which was a small threat and counterattack.
Hence, Yi Juncheng asked Gao Feng to transport a large amount of equipment over. At first, Gao Feng and Tong Liang thought that it was just to satisfy the internal needs of the Hall of One Man’s Rule.
Then, they realized that Yi Juncheng really liked to be ruthless!
