Chapter 183 - Don’t Test My Patience! (6)
“You don’t have to thank me, I was just following Kristen’s orders.” Catherine then grabbed her cup and turned around to return to her room.
Luo Anning glanced at Kristen, feeling a little puzzled. “Catherine seems pretty hostile towards me. Did I do something wrong?”
“Don’t worry about her. The kitchen is there. The food and ingredients are in the refrigerator. Go and cook, Chef Luo,” Kristen said, after which he pulled her luggage towards the side.
Luo Anning entered the spacious kitchen to see that it was fully-equipped with all the necessary materials and equipment. However, she found it to be a little too exaggerated.
Do they not use the kitchen at all?
Leaning against the doorframe sluggishly, Kristen stared at Luo Anning with a frown and chided, “What’s there to see in the kitchen? Hurry and cook. I’m getting hungry.”
“Okay, okay, I’ll cook now. Will that do? My benefactor.” She grabbed a chopstick and used it to secure her messy bun, after which she proceeded to grab the ingredients needed for sweet and sour fish.
When she turned on the stove, Kristen returned to the living room because he could not stand the stench of oil. Luo Anning shook her head and thought, seems like he’s afraid of filth too.
Germaphobic men were the hardest to please. She had firsthand experience!
Take the scumbag as an example!
While Luo Anning was cooking the sweet and sour fish, she cooked some rice together with a few appetisers.
After preparing all the dishes, she served them onto the table and proceeded to grab two more bowls of rice. “Kristen, dinner is ready. Come and eat.”
Kristen did not need her reminder at all. He walked towards her the instant that the aroma of the food wafted up to his nose. Keeping his narrow eyes fixed on the fragrant and appetising sweet and sour fish which he had been looking forward to.
All of a sudden, Luo Anning stuffed a pair of chopsticks in his hand and said, “Dig in. You won’t get full just by looking at it.”
Kristen took a seat like she had told him to and focused on eating without saying a single word, perhaps because the food was just too delicious.
Luo Anning noticed the change in emotions in his eyes when he was eating the sweet and sour fish, even though it was subtle and not too noticeable.
As the familiar taste hit his taste buds, Kristen smiled gleefully and said, “It tastes superb.”
It was just like how he remembered.
Luo Anning smiled, for it was rare to receive a compliment from him. “Of course it’d be superb. I was the one who made it.”
…
Luo Anning then miserably discovered that she should not have cooked for Kristen!
She was now being taken advantage of, for he had appointed her to be his personal chef. She would have to cook for him in the apartment!
After that night, she was compelled to move into the apartment. Although she could not figure out the relationship between Kristen and Catherine, she could clearly sense the latter’s animosity towards her.
She felt that she did not have the intentions to vie with Catherine for Kristen and hence, did not bother trying to cajole or suck up to Catherine. Anyway, Catherine had already said that she was just following Kristen’s orders and didn’t care for her gratitude. In that case, why should she be thick-skinned and let her thoughts go unreciprocated?
There were several cars in Kristen’s garage. In order to make traveling to work easier for Luo Anning, he lent a Bentley to her.
Upon arriving at the London branch office of Baina International, she headed first to the Human Resources department, where the employees immediately arranged an office for her because they knew that she was the CEO’s wife.
The team that had gone to London prior to her arrival, was now under her management and she was in charge of the project.
