Chapter 1179 Extra: Eel 16
Lu Yuwen smiled gently: "Okay, you can invite me next time."
Su Man bit her chopsticks and thought for a while, "...Do you like Chinese food or Western food? I'll ask my friends later which restaurant is better."
She doesn't care much about food. She usually eats whatever is cooked at home. If she invites guests to dinner, she doesn't know which restaurant is suitable.
Lu Yuwen said: "I can do it, but what about you? Do you have any taboos?"
"No." Su Man shook her head and replied honestly, "As long as it's delicious, I like to eat it."
Lu Yuwen smiled, raised his chin slightly, motioned her to look at his plate, and asked, "Do you like pasta?"
"Ah, this is delicious!" Su Man quickly cheered, "I don't know how you made it, but this is really the most delicious pasta I have ever eaten. My parents are used to eating Chinese food, so Aunt Zhang I never make these, and sometimes I can’t change the taste even if I want to…”
She paused while talking. She was worried about causing Lu Yuwen's misunderstanding, and explained dryly: "I, I didn't mean to let you do it again. I'm really sorry today. Our family should treat you well... As a result, it seems It’s like letting you be a cook in my house..."
That doesn’t seem right.
Su Man pursed her lips, with annoyance on her face, and her voice was lower, with self-loathing annoyance:
"I'm not very good at talking. People around me often say that my words easily offend people. Don't mind."
"No." Lu Yuwen looked at her with a smile, his expression soft, "I think it's good for you to be like this. You go straight and don't need to go around in circles. Chatting with you will be very relaxing."
Su Man was stunned: "...really?"
Lu Yuwen smiled: "Do you look at me like I'm telling lies?"
Su Man's face turned slightly red.
This is the first time I have received such praise since I was a child.
Lu Yuwen lowered his head, ate pasta slowly, and chatted casually: "I went out to apply for a new ID card today. When I came back, it was already past dinner time. I originally ordered a takeaway, but the taste was not very good, so I borrowed your kitchen. …”
"It's okay, you can use it whatever you want." Su Man said sincerely, "It just satisfies my taste. Have you ever learned it before? It's really delicious!"
Lu Yuwen raised his eyes to look at her, with a gentle smile in his eyes, "I only know a little bit. After all, I do this business myself. Although I don't have to cook the spoon myself, I still need to understand some basic skills. If you like it, I can make it for you next time."
Su Man blushed even more after hearing this, and hurriedly swallowed the food in her mouth. She choked and coughed twice, and said awkwardly: "Then why are you so embarrassed..."
Lu Yuwen raised a hand and gently pushed the glass water glass on the table to her hand. He didn't want the mark to be too obvious, so he changed the topic in a natural tone:
"You seem to be more energetic now. When you came back just now, I felt that you were not very happy."
"Ah?" Su Man looked up after hearing this and looked at Lu Yuwen blankly, "Is it obvious?"
Lu Yuwen smiled: "Is your answer now a self-inflicted mistake?"
His joking tone made Su Man laugh too, with a bit of embarrassment in her smile. She explained: "I just feel that today is particularly bad... so my mood is a little affected..."
Looking back on her whole day's experience, she unconsciously showed sadness on her face.
"I can't seem to do anything. My dad is in the hospital. I really want to take care of him, but I can't do anything well in the hospital. I can only watch the nurses do their work and play with my mobile phone... It's rare for my good friends to participate in a commendation. At the conference, it was agreed that I would go to cheer him up, but by the time I arrived at the conference, it was already over... And the same thing happened with my job as a criminal police officer. Everyone didn't think highly of me and thought I was incompetent... Well, actually sometimes , I myself feel that I am not good at it..."
She pursed her lips and murmured in a low voice: "Maybe my parents are right, it would be better for me to be a traffic policeman..."
"If you really like it, you have to work hard for it." Lu Yuwen looked at her gently, "Most things in this world are not something that anyone is born with."
