Chapter 211: An Odd Coincidence 1

Longmen Inn Kitchen.

After having been personally approved by Lu Yan, Si Jin entered the kitchen smoothly and stood together with the large group of soot-covered cooks and vegetable cutters. Everyone looked at this beautiful young man, stunned. After having been dumbfounded for a moment, they finally found their voices.

“Young Master, you don’t look like you’re lacking in silver. Do you not have servants at home to prepare meals for you?”

Si Jin smiled but did not answer the question. He just picked up the kitchen knife and stood beside the chopping block. He held himself in place, studied the cook’s posture and technique, and began helping to cut the vegetables quickly.

A few of the cooks and workers first thought they were going to be miserable, ‘We have a troublemaker coming into the kitchen today, looks like we’re going to be late in serving the other guests.’

However, when the boy quickly picked up the kitchen knife at that moment, the vegetables were cut swiftly and properly.

This rendered everyone speechless.

They could not help but praise the boy.

“Young Master, you’re very skilled with the knife.”

“I’m a genius.” Si Jin was also very pleased that he was able to learn that fast.

The kitchen staff were ecstatic.

Things were so much easier now that they had a helper, not to mention the kind of helper that did not need to be paid. Following that, the cooks just did a demonstration at the front while Si Jin imitated them at the back.

Si Jin felt a gaze on him when he was chopping vegetables.

He turned his head and saw that a white cat had descended onto the window sill of the kitchen without him realizing it.

“Why are you here?” Si Jin waved his hand and said directly, “I’ll play with you later, I want to learn how to cut veggies first!”

Lucky, “…”

Idiot!

He obviously should let himself be provided for.

Just like this cat who was fed three meals and was the only one loved by its keeper.

Which was in complete contrast to him who had turned himself into a human and was learning to cook in the kitchen.

What a fool.

After cutting up vegetables the entire morning, the cooks and workers all felt that the boy’s ability to learn was just simply amazing! Did he even need to be taught?

After a busy lunchtime service.

Si Jin was finally free. He wiped the sweat on his forehead. As he leaned against the side of the window sill, he saw that white cat that was still there.

“Isn’t it boring that you just stayed here all this time and watched me learn how to cut vegetables?”

“…” Obviously, you were the boring one, idiot.

Si Jin looked at the lazy cat curiously. “Are you sure your master doesn’t mind you not being around him for the past two hours?”

“…”

The white cat froze for a moment before swiftly turning around and disappearing in an instant.

Si Jin was left alone standing where he was, smiling with his brows raised.

Lu Yan had never been separated from his cat for that long before. He was already prepared for it to never return and was getting people ready to go out to search for it. In the end, the little beast had returned on its own. It jumped in through the window and sneaked a look at him.

It looked guilty once again.

As if it had gone out and cheated on him.

After the white cat returned to Lu Yan’s side, it nervously jumped onto the couch. It first used its little claws to feel around before lightly patting Lu Yan’s leg once. Lu Yan glanced at it and the white cat then realized that its claws were a little dirty. It felt like it needed to go take a shower lest this clean freak threw it out the window.

Just as it was about to jump down the couch, Lu Yan grabbed it into his arms in one movement.

“Little beast, how dare you loiter outside for two whole hours? You actually took me for dead.”

The white cat was so scared that it did not dare to breathe. It hurriedly stuck out its little tongue and licked the back of Lu Yan’s hand cautiously.

Lu Yan after getting licked, “…”

He quietly put down the cat then instructed Dong Jing to summon Qi Qingyao over on the pretense that he had something to discuss with her.

The white cat, “???”

F*ck.

Qi Qingyao, who had been called over out of the blue, was even more bewildered.

“Grandpa, you were looking for me?”

“Sit.”

“…”

After Qi Qingyao sat down, she realized that Lu Yan’s expression was very heavy and that he looked like he wanted to discuss some huge matter with her.

After waiting for a while.

Lu Yan first swept a glance at the white cat on the couch.

Then, he turned to Qi Qingyao and spoke.

“My cat has cheated on me.”

“Huh?” Qi Qingyao was stunned.
