[Love and Producer] Passive strategy

"These dishes are too difficult. You may have to learn them in your next life." Li Zeyan explained patiently.

Li Youxue was a little annoyed immediately, but she couldn't refute this culinary criticism, so she could only swallow her voice: "Then what do you think is suitable for me to learn at my current level?"

"You are only suitable to fight there." Li Zeyan commented very bluntly. "You have no talent at all in this area."

"Then you still agree to teach me when you look down on me?" Li Youxue felt even angrier, wanting to roll up her sleeves and confront him. "You said it earlier, I'll just give up, aren't you wasting my time?"

Li Zeyan squinted at her, and replied calmly: "I will naturally honor the reward you asked for."

"But didn't you say that I have no talent?" Li Youxue was still a little angry, so she just used his own words to scold him.

Li Zeyan stared at her for two seconds, and replied meaningfully: "Maybe, we can still save it."

"Then what do I need to do now?" Li Youxue ignored the subtle perception in her heart and looked for an apron that suited her.

Li Zeyan glanced at her, raised his hand to open the closet above his head, took out a packaging bag from it and handed it to her.

Li Youxue took it subconsciously. It was a light orange apron with a cat pattern. The whole style looked gentle and cute - but it was brand new, as if it had just been bought and hadn't been used yet.

For some reason, she unconsciously glanced at the price tag that hadn't been removed - UlsterWeavers, £135.

...It's just an apron and it needs to be imported from the UK?Li Youxue stared at this apron for a while, and suddenly had a deep appreciation of the living standards of capitalist cook lovers.

"You bought it for me?" Li Youxue suddenly realized something, and asked him suddenly.

Li Zeyan turned his head, as if he didn't want to look at her, and speeded up his speech and told her: "There is a small bowl over there, take eggs and beat them into froth."

Li Youxue looked at him again, seeing that he really didn't intend to answer this time - he didn't even look at her, so she followed the instructions and took the eggbeater and began to beat the eggs with some resentment.

"So, in the end, I can only learn to make pudding?" Li Youxue thought about it, and was not very satisfied with Li Zeyan's positioning of her culinary skills.

"This simple one is more suitable for you." Li Zeyan was still preparing the steak and explained to her without looking back.

"But I know how to make pudding." Li Youxue felt even more reconciled - always felt as if she was underestimated.

"You did it?" Li Zeyan sneered as if remembering something. "You can't call that pudding - you're just throwing eggs at it."

... Li Youxue decided not to listen to him and concentrate on beating eggs.Holding the egg beater, she pursed her lips tightly, and vigorously shook her wrist, trying to vent all her resentment on this bowl of egg flower.

"It's almost there." Li Zeyan took a look at her achievements in his busy schedule, and reminded her lightly. "Also, use less force, it will be troublesome to break the bowl."

"Then what am I going to do next?" Li Youxue asked her with her hands pouted a little angrily.

"Add the cream I prepared over there." Li Zeyan pointed her in the direction.

Li Youxue cooperatively took down the jar containing the cream, scooped a few spoonfuls and poured it into a bowl, while stirring, she continued to look at Li Zeyan's back with questioning eyes.

"Stir well." Li Zeyan answered her immediately as if he had eyes behind his back.

"Don't you still need to add milk?" Li Youxue asked him suspiciously, recalling the process schedule given by the system.

"The milk needs to be boiled. I'm afraid you can't do it. I'll do the rest." Li Zeyan seemed to tell her kindly.

"No, you agreed to teach me, how can you do it for me?" Li Youxue resolutely refused to agree... To be more precise, she disagreed with Li Zeyan's contemptuous attitude towards her cooking skills.

"Do you really want to learn?" Now it was Li Zeyan's turn to be surprised, and he couldn't help turning his head and staring at her intently. "Why? You don't need to learn."

"Why don't you need it? I can't keep meituan, can I? The takeaway guy almost knows me." Li Youxue replied angrily.

Li Zeyan seemed to smile: "It's better to eat less takeaway. If you have anything to eat..." He paused and said slowly: "Tell me, I will help you."

"You help me?" Li Youxue couldn't help laughing.She is not a person who likes to laugh, but the smile at this moment is very real.There was a faint dimple on the right cheek. She looked at Li Zeyan and said meaningfully: "You can't help me every day, can you? You are the president of Huarui, and you are very busy-I know all about it."

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and continued to stir the egg mixture, and she didn't hear Li Zeyan speak for a long time.

Until Li Zeyan said slowly: "No matter how busy you are, you won't be so busy every day—do you think I'm so inefficient?"

Li Youxue put down the small bowl and pretended to look around for milk, but didn't pick up on him.

Li Zeyan seemed to be waiting, but before she answered, there was nothing unusual, so he naturally took out a carton of milk from the refrigerator, opened it, poured it into a small pot, put it on the fire and started cooking.

"Slow fire and slow cooking?" Li Youxue asked him guessing as he leaned closer to see the not-so-vigorous flames below.

Li Zeyan didn't look at her, and let out a "hmm".

……

With Li Zeyan's guidance, Li Youxue's pudding was finished very quickly.But when she put the pudding into the oven and adjusted the time and temperature according to the instructions, she found that Li Zeyan on the side had finished the steak.

"The chef is indeed a chef. This speed is not bad." Li Youxue was amazed at the well-colored and fragrant steak. "It seems that I still have a lot to learn."

"Then you may have to spend three lifetimes to learn it." Li Zeyan sneered with squinting eyes as he took off his apron.

Li Youxue firmly ignored his complaints... Although her eyes couldn't help but look at the two red wine steaks.

Li Zeyan noticed her small movements, and smiled faintly: "Let's go, let's go eat."

It didn't take too long for the two of them to eat. After eating a steak, the pudding in the oven had just cooled down to the most suitable temperature.

Li Youxue was looking forward to her new attempt under the guidance of God of Cooking, and happily brought it to Li Zeyan to taste.

Li Zeyan seemed to take the spoon she handed over by accident: "Why give it to me first?"

"I'm afraid I'll poison myself before poisoning you." Li Youxue replied honestly. "If you feel that you can eat it, it shows that I have succeeded this time."

Li Zeyan: "...you have really high demands on yourself."

Li Youxue finally realized what was wrong, and made amends seriously: "You are my master, you should enjoy the first result first."

Li Zeyan sighed helplessly, took a spoonful and put it in his mouth.

Li Youxue stared at him intently.

Li Zeyan's expression didn't change at all. He glanced at her and commented calmly: "It's unpalatable."

This made Li Youxue feel relieved, and patted herself on the chest: "That's great..." She sighed happily and said to herself. "It seems to be edible."

Li Zeyan was expressionless, probably because he didn't want to talk to her at all.

Li Youxue gained a little confidence - Li Zeyan didn't turn green, foam at the mouth and fell to the ground, which means the taste is normal!Thinking of this, she took the spoon in Li Zeyan's hand, took a spoonful of pudding and ate it.

Li Zeyan's expression suddenly froze, and his dark blue eyes stared at her pale and slender fingers pinching the handle of the spoon for a moment.

Li Youxue didn't pay attention to his expression, she raised her face slightly, pursed her lips with great concentration, and nodded in self-confidence: "Well, the taste has been reduced."

After not hearing Li Zeyan's reply or complaints for a long time, Li Youxue turned to look at him inexplicably.

Li Zeyan frowned unhappily, with a bad expression on his face: "Is your EQ negative?"

The good cooking teaching suddenly rose to the level of ginseng rooster. Li Youxue blinked blankly. Although she didn't know what was going on, she subconsciously sneered back: "I'm too famous, I'm just a little taller than you."

Li Zeyan was quiet for two seconds, then stood up and left.After striding all the way to the door, he turned his head with a dark face: "Aren't you leaving?"

"Why is he angry?" Li Youxue stood up and walked over while consulting the system. "I thought he'd come back."

[...Maybe it's because you can't find it? 】The system hesitated for a moment and tried to analyze. 【...After all, with your EQ, even if he beats you, it's equivalent to not winning. 】

"That makes sense." Li Youxue only listened to the first sentence but not the next, and nodded quite complacently.

Standing at the door, Li Zeyan glared at her as she approached, then turned off the light and locked the door, and drove her home.

……

The crisis of trust among Chinese Americans was lifted, and all employees recovered from the tense state of walking on thin ice to the previous relaxed and calm state.

Li Youxue's daily routine in the office has also become much more lazy from the all-nighter a while ago.

At noon, the continuous sound of the mobile phone woke up Li Youxue from a drowsy state.She took it and saw that it was a text message from Zhou Qiluo.

[My son: Youyo~ Today is Christmas Eve!Shall we go eat hot pot together tonight? ]

[My son: Because there will be a live broadcast on Christmas tomorrow, I can only ask you out today... You won't reject me, will you? ]

Li Youxue thought about how many times she had teased Zhou Qiluo, plus a few favors, and readily agreed: [OK!My treat!Where is the appointment? ]

[My son: Send me the location at five o'clock!I will look for you! ]

Li Youxue thought about it, raised her finger and replied: [Okay, it's settled. ]

Putting down her phone, Li Youxue remembered an important thing - on Christmas Eve, shouldn't everyone be given apples?

"Yueyue, Sister Anna, I'm going out for a while, I'll be back later." She immediately stood up to pack her backpack, and gestured to the two assistants.

After the two people on the opposite side gave her the OK gesture, Li Youxue walked out quickly with her bag in her hand, and went straight to the nearby Xinguang Department Store—although she knew it would be expensive, but the Ping An fruit there was still packaged. better looking.

After finding a suitable store in the Xinguang Department Store, Li Youxue picked out the apples, then turned to pick cellophane and mounting paper, and wrapped them up one by one under the instruction of the clerk.

She basically counts according to the number of people - dozens of employees of the company, Zhou Qiluo, Li Zeyan, and Bai Qi.As for Xu Mo, that person had disappeared for a long time, and he didn't know what he was up to.

After a lot of hard work, when she finally finished packing and went to the counter to check out, she heard the salesperson sigh with envy: "Miss, your boyfriend is so kind to you, and he has been waiting for you there for a long time."

Li Youxue was taken aback by these words, and reflexively looked back.

White shirt without tie, dark blue haute couture suit... If it weren't for that poker face that no strangers should approach, she wouldn't have believed that this was the antique Li Zeyan.
