Chapter 796: Cooking Idiot
This time, his face was still pale, but his gaze and expression were especially calm. ‘Zhuang Long’ stood up and patted the dirty dust off his body. He looked back at the autopsy room before following the rope and leaving the bas.e.m.e.nt elegantly and quickly.
When they arrived at the hall, ‘Zhuang Long’ opened his notebook, opened the doc.u.ment, and wrote something on it.
After saving the doc.u.ment, Zhuang Long quickly fell asleep.
After saving the doc.u.ment, Zhuang Long quickly fell asleep.
It was normal for a body that had been frightened to feel weak. Zhuang Long rubbed his shoulders and suddenly saw some scenes.
Bas.e.m.e.nt!
His expression suddenly turned ugly.
Zhuang Long was actually not a timid person. The fact that he dared to enter the virus outbreak area alone was enough to prove that he was a courageous person. However, no matter how powerful and brave a person was, there was still a shadow in his heart that he did not dare to touch.
Those childhood experiences were the fear in Zhuang Long’s heart.
He sat on the sofa and ma.s.saged his temples. At this moment, he was not as afraid as before. He could even calmly recall and a.n.a.lyze the scenes he had seen.
He was certain that the man he saw in his imagination was his father, Robert.
He even suspected that the scene he had imagined was not just a fantasy. It was very likely that it had really happened, but he had forgotten. Zhuang Long thought of his useless reaction in the bas.e.m.e.nt and could not help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
“You’re so cowardly!”
He scolded himself with a smile.
Zhuang Long was about to get up when he realized that the laptop on the table had been opened. Zhuang Long was stunned for a moment before he guessed what had happened and quickly opened the notebook. The notebook stopped at the doc.u.ment page. Zhuang Long saw a sentence on it—
The demon in the darkness stretched out its fangs and hands. He grabbed us and tried to take us to h.e.l.l.
However, there was still light and angels by our side.
We have to defeat that demon and return to the side of the angel. If we don’t go to h.e.l.l, we’ll be saved. Go deep into h.e.l.l and discover the truth back then. You have to remember that we’ve grown up. No matter how powerful the demon is, he’s not our match.
Zhuang Long stared at this sentence for a long time before falling silent.
‘He’ was really brave.
It was already past two in the afternoon. After lunch, it was not time for dinner. At this time, there was no food in town. Zhuang Long walked into the kitchen and found vegetables in the refrigerator.
Then the question was, how should he cook these dishes?
Should he just cook it and eat it?
He chose two eggs, a tomato, a piece of beef, and noodles. Zhuang Long boiled some water. When the water boiled, he removed the sh.e.l.l of the two eggs and threw them into the pot. He threw the eight pieces of beef into the pot, threw the four pieces of tomatoes into the pot, and finally threw the noodles in.
Those who had never cooked before did not know what to do at all. They relied on their intuition.
Zhuang Long’s intuition… was very bad.
Twenty minutes later, he stared at the colorful things in the pot with a painful expression. Zhuang Long poured the food in the pot and thought about it. He decided to go next door.
…
Xi Bo was a little surprised to see Zhuang Long, but he still welcomed him into the house politely.
Zhuang Long could not be bothered to act with him. He entered the house and asked Xi Bo, “Is your Miss Lawson called Clarice Lawson?”
“Yes, Mr. Zhuang.”
“Oh.”
Zhuang Long shamelessly called Xiao Li.
Xiao Li picked up very quickly this time.
“I’m in Monterey.” Zhuang Long wasn’t going to hide it from her.
Xiao Li remained silent.
“I called you because I have a request.”
Only then did Xiao Li speak and ask him, “What is it?” Xiao Li thought that Zhuang Long would ask her if they had known each other when they were young or if he would ask her if she really wanted to marry Bruce.
However, the smart man known as the father of AIDS actually asked, “Can I have a meal in your villa?” As if he was embarra.s.sed, he deliberately paused and said, “I made a pot of noodles myself just now, but it didn’t work.”
Xiao Li was speechless.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Li finally hung up.
Xi Bo was surprised to hear his call.
At this moment, the phone in the villa rang.
Xi Bo went to answer the call and heard Xiao Li say on the other end, “Get the chef to cook something for him to eat.” After a pause, Xiao Li said, “He likes spaghetti and tomato stewed beef brisket. In the future, when it’s time for dinner, get someone to send the food to him directly.”
Xi Bo was extremely surprised. He wanted to ask something, but Xiao Li muttered, “Trash, you don’t even know how to cook!” Then, she hung up.
Xi Bo put down the phone and looked at Zhuang Long, who was drinking coffee.
Why did she still want a divorce if she cared so much about him?
Zhuang Long got his wish and ate lunch. He was quite embarra.s.sed. Before dinner, he even said to Xi Bo, “Actually, it’s not that I’m lazy. I really tried to cook myself before I came, but I might not be suitable for the kitchen. I did a little…”
For the sake of the man’s face, Zhuang Long said, “It doesn’t look good.”
Heber smiled and said, “Miss Lawson instructed us to prepare meals for Mr. Zhuang every day from now on. If Mr. Zhuang has any eating habits, you can tell me. I’ll ask the chef to pay more attention.”
Zhuang Long gave him a grateful look.
“Your Miss Lawson is really considerate.”
Zhuang Long was full and got up to leave. Before he left, he shamelessly said, “Usually, I have breakfast at 7: 30am, lunch at 11: 30am, and dinner at 5: 30am. I’m not picky and eat everything.” With that, he left, leaving Xi Bo dumbfounded behind.
He was really like an outsider…
Zhuang Long was actually a person who cared about his face, but a person who did not know how to cook was always easily tempted by delicacies. In addition, knowing who the owner behind Xi Bo was, Zhuang Long thought that he was eating Xiao Li’s woman and felt that face was not that important.
In fact, when Xiao Li received Xi Bo’s call and learned about Zhuang Long’s actions, not only was she not angry, she was even a little happy.
Zhuang Long was willing to accept her arrangement. Did that mean that he did not treat her as an outsider at all?
The moment he got home, the relaxed smile on Zhuang Long’s face collapsed.
This family made him feel suffocated at all times.
He sat at the door and basked in the sun for a while. At 5: 30 pm, Xi Bo sent dinner over on time. Zhuang Long was quite surprised to see that he was the one who sent him over personally. He did not want to trouble this old man, so he said, “Butler Heber, you don’t have to work so hard. I’ll go over for dinner tomorrow. You don’t have to send me over anymore.”
“Okay.”
