After all, when I first moved out to live alone, I didn't seem to have had a proper dinner.

Xia Chen was too lazy to make dinner, and it was not suitable for cup noodles at this time, so he relied on jelly drinks to get by.

Although I miss the meals cooked by the chef at home, but after so many years, Xia Chen no longer has any excessive demands for more food.

After all, if you don't starve to death, you will do.

"If student Xia Chen doesn't mind, just wait a bit."

After all, he didn't wait for his answer.Kato Megumi turned around and returned home, which made Xia Chen, who was drinking an 'energy drink', feel baffled.

In less than 5 minutes, the doorbell was rang.

And there is only one person who can come now—Megumi Kato!

Quietly tidying up the things that were randomly piled up together, and seeing that the surface looked tidy, Xia Chen opened the door with confidence.

At this moment, she no longer wears the white dress she wore this morning, but instead wears a playful and lovely home dress.

And she was holding a pink lunch box in her hand.The translucent lid vaguely reveals the shadow of cooking inside.Perhaps because the contents inside were still warm, a layer of water mist formed on the lid.

"If student Xia Chen doesn't mind, then take this as a souvenir."

She handed the lunch box to Xia Chen, with a look of expectation in her eyes.

This unexpected food made Xia Chen a little embarrassed, but he couldn't refuse it, so he took it resentfully.

The remaining warmth of the bento box slowly spread to the palm of the hand, which is very warm in this gradually cooling weather.

"If Kato-san doesn't mind, please come in."

Chapter 13: Bento (Flowers!)

"Excuse me," Kato Megumi said politely.

She looked around curiously, only to realize that only Xia Chen lived in the huge house.

No wonder Xia Chen only had those for dinner.

She glanced around like a curious baby, and because it was her first time visiting someone's house, she acted a little cautiously.

It's just that I didn't expect that Xia Chen, who is a perfect person, can't cook. It would be very sad if the fans in the school knew.

Xia Chen didn't know what Kato Megumi was thinking, and now he was sitting quietly at the dining table to enjoy the dinner Kato Megumi brought.

"It seems to look good!"

Xia Chen opened the lid of the box with some anticipation and some hesitation.There is no doubt that the aroma of cooking is faintly wafting out.

It's boiled with several root vegetables and chicken.The soup is slightly lighter in color, clearly reflecting the color of the bright carrots and garnished with lentils.

All kinds of food were cut into sizes that could be eaten in one bite, which strongly stimulated the appetite of Zhou who only ate some jelly.

Xia Chen quickly opened the disposable chopsticks, and first picked up a piece of radish.

"good to eat!"

Although it is not as delicious as the chefs in high-end restaurants, there is no doubt that it is filled with a taste of 'home'.

The taste is light, with the flavor of dashi, and it is very health-conscious.Moreover, this is not the granular seasoning that you buy, but a soup that is carefully cooked with bonito and kelp.The soup made in this way is completely different in taste.

Xia Chen chewed carefully, enjoying the taste of the broth, seasonings, and vegetables themselves that gradually spread in his mouth.

Facing this cooking that not only fully utilized the original umami taste of vegetables, but also thoroughly tasted them, even if Xia Chen didn't like vegetables, he could still eat them to his heart's content.

There is not much chicken in it, as if to say that you should eat vegetables well.Those chickens are also very fresh and tender, without any sense of dryness, and they are impeccable except for the quantity.

For the cooking of female high school students, the choice of dishes is very simple, but it fully reflects the level of the producer.

It can be said that this taste is completely different from that made by someone who has just learned how to cook.

It would be even better if there was miso, soy sauce, etc.——Although Xia Chen thought so, unfortunately, he didn't cook.

It's better to say that Xia Chen doesn't know anything other than cooking!

"Is this really made by Kato-san? It's really unbelievable. It tastes better than some restaurant chefs."

Xia Chen praised her craftsmanship while talking.

"It's not as exaggerated as student Xia Chen said. These are just some ordinary home-cooked dishes. Maybe it's because you haven't had a serious dinner for a long time, so you think it's delicious."

The girl smiled, although the smile was very shallow, it was full of warmth.

It's a pity that Xia Chen, who only cared about cooking, didn't see this scene.When he finished eating, Kato Megumi still had the same flat expression that hadn't changed for thousands of years.

"If it's something, let me take it back."

Seeing that Xia Chen had finished eating, Megumi Kato thought about taking the bento box back to wash.

But Xia Chen was embarrassed. After all, it would be really rude to ask others to clean up after eating their things.

He rejected Kato Megumi, turned around and picked up the bento box to the kitchen to clean.

That resolute attitude made Kato Megumi a little helpless, so he had no choice but to give up.

"No, Kato-san, water"

"Thank you"

Kato Megumi took the water that Xia Chen handed over, and then asked, "Does Xia Chen live alone? It looks like you are the only one here."

Because when Xia Chen opened the refrigerator just now, Kato Megumi inadvertently saw that it was full of drinks, jelly and cup noodles, which seemed to be stored for a long time.

Normally, most of the refrigerators will have bought meals and the like.

"That's right..."

Xia Chen didn't know how to answer. After all, if his classmates knew that he was married to someone else, he would really die socially.

Fortunately, Er Nao has already returned home, otherwise I really don't know how to explain it.

And both of them hope that this relationship can be sealed forever, as if it never happened.

"That's really hard work, if you live alone."

Kato Megumi glanced at Xia Chen slightly, but it was impossible to see what she was thinking on her plain face.

"Does Xia Chen eat those every day?" Kato Megumi pointed to the cup noodles and jelly that hadn't been cleared away on the table.

It seemed that without her, Xia Chen would have prepared these for dinner.

"No matter how you look at the kitchen, there are no signs of proper use. There are still a lot of disposable chopsticks from supermarkets and convenience stores on the table. Besides, you can guess without using your brain. And you have an unhealthy look. Could it be Xia Chenjun? Can't cook?"

Kato Megumi's words pierced Xia Chen's heart like a sharp sword. She didn't expect that she would deduce it after just reading it for a while.

Xia Chen's face couldn't help twitching.But this is also true, and he had to listen silently.

wrong!Whose house is this?

Why did Xia Chen feel like a child being reprimanded by an adult, but he couldn't find any words to refute.

"Student Xia Chen, you should pay more attention to your diet. I'll go back first."

With words like an old mother's advice, Megumi Kato took the lunch box and left here, leaving only the dumbfounded Xia Chen slightly at a loss.

"Are you really going to learn how to cook?"

--split line--

"We're back!"

A familiar voice came from the Nakano family, and several people also looked out the door at the same time.

It was Yotsuba and May, who had been studying outside for a day, who pushed the door in. At this moment, they were carrying things in big and small bags and putting them home.

But it seems that they all look like snacks!

"Welcome home!" ×3

Several people replied habitually, then turned around and started to do their own things again.

"Eh? Nino, you're back!"

Yotsuba was a little surprised when she saw Nino, and suddenly remembered that she smelled her on Xia Chen today.

Isn't that...?

Thinking of this, in order to solve the doubts in her heart, Yotsuba put down her things, threw herself on Nino and began to smell.

"Wait...wait a minute, stupid Yotsuba, what do you want to do? Even if you miss me, don't be so excited, and it's only one day!"

And this indescribable posture is too embarrassing!

"Huh? It's strange why there is no such thing? I can still smell it in the morning?"

"What do you mean? Smell what?"

"It was when classmate Xia Chen was teaching us today, I smelled you on him."

The idiot!Nino couldn't help cursing inwardly, then reacted and quickly pushed Yotsuba away, pretending to be annoyed and said, "Huh? How could I smell like that bastard on me? Is your nose out of order!"

"Eh? Not really." After smelling it for so long, Yotsuba realized that there was nothing but a faint scent on Nino's body.

"Is it really my fault?"

Seeing her give up exploring, Nino finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I took a shower before they came back, otherwise I don't know how to explain it!

(ps: Which brother ordered the reminder? It's done!)

Chapter 14: Visiting the Bookstore (Flowers!)

"Hey, Kato-san, you got up so early."

The brilliance of the sun reflected on Xia Chen's face, and the sweat on it was clearly visible.

Xia Chen, who had just returned from his morning jog, ran into Megumi Kato again on the ramp, and it really had to be said to be due to fate.
