Zongman: Unknowingly trapped in the hatchet

"What would you like to eat tonight?"

"Well...anything is fine. I'm not picky about food."

"Then I'll do what I want."

"Okay, but Shiina, can I ask what my snack is for a moment?"

"This is a secret. You are not allowed to come into the kitchen and peek until it's done."

"What will happen if I peek?"

"Then cancel your extra meal!"

……

Wow, that's really scary.

Su Qing was lying lazily on the comfortable lazy sofa as usual, like a useless person with nothing to do, quietly waiting for the cute little cook next door to bring delicious food. He watched the busy girl in the kitchen leisurely, and a feeling of emotion surged in his heart.

In the kitchen, the girl's long hair that was originally draped over her shoulders has now been tied up into a playful high ponytail. Whenever she turns or moves slightly, the ponytail will sway with her, as if showing people her unique youth and vitality. This lively atmosphere makes people yearn for it, and they can't help but reach out to touch the beautiful dynamic feeling, but they are afraid of breaking this tranquility and disturbing her figure who is concentrating on cooking.

Regarding such virtuous neighbors, Su Qing said: Give me a dozen more!

……

"Su Qing, dinner is ready."

Shiina Mahiru took off her pink apron, put it aside, and smiled at Su Qing, the useless person in the living room.

"Okay, I'll help serve it to the table."

Seeing that Shiina was ready, Su Qing, who had been waiting for a long time, finally had one of the few opportunities to use his skills. He quickly stood up and brought the dishes to the table.

"Then please."

Shiina did not refuse. Today's cooking was more complicated than before and consumed more of her energy. After a long period of busy work, she now felt a little tired.

At the dinner table, Su Qing once again refreshed his understanding of Shiina's cooking skills.

The first thing that catches your eye is a plate of exquisite okra and tofu. The emerald green okra and the tender tofu complement each other, and a few drops of elegant soy sauce are drizzled on it, which not only retains the original flavor of the ingredients, but also adds a touch of fresh flavor.

Next came the deep-fried pork chop, which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The golden skin shone with an attractive luster under the light. A light bite and the crisp sound accompanied by the overflow of gravy made people instantly immersed in a full sense of happiness. Paired with a special Japanese sauce, the sweet and sour taste further highlighted the deliciousness of the deep-fried pork chop.

Next to it is a plate of colorful tempura, with all kinds of seafood and vegetables wrapped in light batter and fried until golden brown. Every bite is an ultimate temptation to the taste buds. The deliciousness of seafood and the freshness of vegetables interweave in the mouth, leaving people with endless aftertaste.

Not far away, a bowl of potato salad is quietly waiting to be tasted. The delicate mashed potatoes are perfectly blended with the sweet and sour salad dressing, and the addition of cucumber cubes, carrot shreds and other vegetables not only makes the color attractive, but also has a distinct taste and is refreshing and refreshing. It is the best choice to relieve greasiness.

Finally, a bowl of steaming sea bream miso soup brought this gourmet journey to a perfect end. The delicious sea bream slices swayed gently in the rich miso soup, forming a harmonious picture with the tender tofu and sweet kelp. Every mouthful of soup was full of the freshness of the sea and the richness of miso, warming the body and heart, making people feel as if they were in the warm embrace of the ocean.

How do you say that?

Oh, I remembered it.

Shiina, my superman!

"Eat slowly, really."

Opposite Su Qing, Shiina was looking at Su Qing who was wolfing down her food with a helpless expression on his face. But as a little cook, what could be more joyful than having the food she cooks recognized by others?

And Su Qing's current behavior is undoubtedly the highest evaluation given to a cook by a useless person, no, as a glorious food connoisseur.

"Even if you say so, I can't help it. I always feel like they are tempting me."

"Nonsense, food doesn't tempt people."

"It's hard to say, right? Many ingredients on our continent can be cultivated into spirits and then transformed into humans. For example, rabbits and so on."

"is it?"

Shiina was startled. Su Qing's serious tone made her panic. When she thought that the ingredients she handled every day might turn into humans, she inexplicably felt a little guilty.

"Of course, even many protagonists will marry the ingredients that have transformed into humans."

"main character?"

"Yeah, a novel."

Su Qing took another bite of food and put it into his mouth, then spoke as if nothing had happened.

"You'd better eat. Eating won't stop you from eating."

Shiina said unhappily. She just thought Su Qing was talking about some mainland ghost stories, but it turned out to be a novel. Novels like this about animals and plants turning into humans are actually very common in Japan. Even though Shiina doesn't read them, she has heard other people mention a certain blue slime that is very popular recently. However, Shiina has not heard anyone mention the story of marrying animals and plants.

"By the way, this is for you."

Su Qing seemed to have thought of something. He took a piece of paper from the table, wiped his hands, took out a key from his pocket and handed it to Shiina.

"Why did you give me the key all of a sudden?"

Shiina reached out and took the key, her beautiful eyes full of confusion.

"It's just a spare key. I've joined a club, so I won't be home as early as before. It'll be more convenient if you have the key, and you don't have to wait until I get home."

"...Aren't you afraid that I might do something bad if you just give me the key casually?"

Su Qing was originally concentrating on eating, but when he heard Shiina say this, he raised his head in confusion, his eyes full of surprise.

"Bad things? What bad things?"

"Well...like cooking a bunch of food and filling up your fridge or something."

?

Su Qing's little head was full of doubts at this time, but he still asked patiently.

"Anything else?"

"Also, tidy up your room and living room!"

Shiina said this with some pride, as if he had caught something on Su Qing.

"puff."

Su Qing listened patiently, then laughed impatiently. I always felt that Shiina had some strange misunderstanding of the definition of the word "bad thing"? Or was it that as a kind angel, this was the worst thing he could imagine?

"Are you making fun of me?" Shiina was unhappy and felt that his dignity was offended.

"No, no, that's horrible. Please don't do that, please!"

Su Qing did not dare to offend the angel cook. He was now somewhat immersed in the gentleness of the girl named Shiina. If he made her unhappy, he would probably have to eat instant noodles in despair, so he chose to follow his heart.

"Hehe, now you know how powerful I am, Mr. Big Devil, don't mess with me easily in the future."

Shiina was like a child who had won a game, with her eyebrows curved and her face full of smiles. She raised her chin proudly, with a sly and bright light flashing in her eyes. For a moment, the air around them became relaxed and cheerful.

Oh no, now I really have become a devil.

Su Qing laughed in silence. Why did the angel chef still insist on the setting she just made up? Come on, I am such a handsome guy, how could I be a demon?

However, looking at the innocent smile of the girl opposite, Su Qing felt...

Actually, it seems like it’s not bad to be a big devil occasionally?
