There was a hint of smugness in Lu Zhen’s tone.
Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Zhen strangely and said worriedly, “Sister Zhenzhen, are you crazy from anger? Listen to me. President Song and Sister Ye Xuan will definitely find the person who caused the destruction and teach that person a lesson!”
“Got it, got it,” Lu Zhen replied, but her tone sounded very distracted. With that, she took a pair of chopsticks and poked the pig trotters in the casserole. Feeling that the pig trotters had already been stewed to the extent described in the video, she brought the casserole down from the gas stove.
Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat as she watched from the side, afraid that Lu Zhen would accidentally be scalded. After that, Xiaoxiao refused to let Lu Zhen continue touching the kitchen knife. She picked up a shovel and helped stir-fry the remaining vegetables.
Lu Zhen had nothing to do, so she took out a scale cup and a broken popsicle. After crushing the green grapes and ice, she poured them into the yakult. As Lu Zhen was relatively weak, she did not put ice in her cup.
After that, the two of them brought the dishes to the table. The dishes on the table were very sumptuous.
Xiaoxiao looked at the table and suddenly felt strange. Why did she feel like the two of them were celebrating something after cooking such a big table of dishes? But now was not the time to celebrate. To Lu Zhen, this was simply the lowest point of her career!
Lu Zhen moved the chair away and sat down. Seeing that Xiaoxiao was still standing in a daze, she reminded her, “Xiaoxiao, eat quickly. The food won’t taste good when it’s cold.”
Xiaoxiao sat down and tasted the food they made together. Then, she looked at Lu Zhen uneasily. “Sister Zhenzhen, are you really fine?”
Lu Zhen looked up at Xiaoxiao. “What can happen to me?”
Seeing that Lu Zhen’s expression was very natural, Xiaoxiao heaved a sigh of relief, but she was still in disbelief. “Sister Zhenzhen, have you adjusted your emotions so quickly? I’m still angry. The person who stabbed you in the back is really too despicable. Who do you think hates you so much?!”
Lu Zhen took a sip of the drink. Although the concoction method was very simple, it tasted good. It was refreshing and sweet. After she put down the cup, she said calmly, “Why do you care so much? This opportunity was an accident to me to begin with. So what if it’s gone now? My career in the country is still there. How can this be called the lowest point of my career? I’m still popular now.”
Xiaoxiao was stunned. She gave her a thumbs up. “Sister Zhenzhen, you’re really open-minded.” The two of them were eating when they suddenly heard the doorbell ring. Xiaoxiao immediately stood up. “I’ll go take a look.”
After Xiaoxiao opened the door, she saw the tall Song Jia standing at the door. Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment. After a few seconds, she realized that there was still oil on her mouth. She was instantly embarrassed and hurriedly said, “President Song, are you here to look for Zhenzhen? We’re eating. Come in quickly.”
Song Jia originally planned to leave after delivering the things, but after smelling a strong fragrance from the house, he hesitated for a moment and entered the house. Song Jia handed the gelatin and other tonics to Xiaoxiao.
“My friend went overseas recently. I asked him to bring back some specialties.”
Xiaoxiao immediately understood what Song Jia meant when she saw that these things were very beneficial to a woman’s body. She smiled brightly and said, “Alright, I’ll definitely supervise Zhenzhen to nourish her body.”
With that, Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Zhen and said loudly, “Sister Zhenzhen, look, President Song gave you a lot of supplements!”
As soon as Xiaoxiao shouted, Lu Zhen and Song Jia were a little embarrassed. However, Song Jia still looked calm on the surface, while Lu Zhen blushed.
Lu Zhen looked at the supplements in Xiaoxiao’s hand and thought of how she had told Song Jia at the banquet yesterday that her stomach hurt. Song Jia must have remembered it in his heart, so he specially sent these supplements over.
Lu Zhen thanked Song Jia unnaturally. The feeling of being remembered made her feel uneasy and strangely happy. Lu Zhen looked away at Song Jia. “Have you eaten? Xiaoxiao and I made some dishes. Do you want to eat together?”
Song Jia caught the special message in Lu Zhen’s words. Wasn’t this meal completely cooked by Xiaoxiao? Did Lu Zhen cook too? After a moment of hesitation, Song Jia nodded. “Okay.”
Lu Zhen went to the kitchen to get another set of bowls and chopsticks.. Then, she opened the fridge and asked Song Jia, “What do you want to drink?”
