Chapter 62: Give You the Pen, Go Write It Now; No Store Smashing, Got It? [Update 1]

~5 min read 872 words

——【??? Why is Reba saying thank you?】

——【Could something have happened when the kitchen was pixelated by the rice cooker's steam just now?】

——【Just this utterly ordinary dinner? Isn't that something anyone with hands can do?】

——【It's just a matter of politeness, right? After all, Qin Feng did most of the cooking, so saying thanks is normal; don't overinterpret it.】

Perhaps to the viewers, two dishes that were even just average in appearance.

In Reba's mouth.

Could taste like home!

So nice~

Qin Feng gulped down half a can of beer.

He wiped his mouth and asked in a low voice, "What? Moved already? You girls are so easy to fool."

Reba said truthfully, "It must be Xinjiang cuisine made specially for me; I know you put your heart into it."

Qin Feng glanced at the refrigerator, then looked at Reba, whose eyes were full of emotion.

Qin Feng: "You bought all the vegetables this afternoon; except for how to pair them, I had no choice!"

Reba:...

It does seem like that!

But it's not just that simple.

Take the cold onion, green pepper, and tomato salad, for instance: onion, green pepper, tomato.

There are completely other ways to combine them.

Yet Qin Feng happened to use his favorite combination!

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Reba's mouth; since this steel-plated straight male was unwilling to admit it, she wouldn't press further.

"Fried fish with beer~ Even the old emperor can't compare to me~"

Qin Feng hummed a tune.

While using chopsticks to give the whole fried saury a massage.

He repeatedly pressed and rolled the chopsticks over the fish body.

Then he inserted the chopsticks into the fish belly.

Afterward, he took out the chopsticks and inserted them into the fish head.

After Qin Feng pressed the fish flesh in succession.

While pressing the fish tail with a spoon, he spread the entire fish belly flat.

Crack!

The bones in the fish tail made a snapping sound!

Just as Reba wondered what this guy was up to again...

Qin Feng pulled out the entire fish skeleton from the saury's tail, removing the skull along with it!

Reba: ∑(? Д? ノ)ノ!!! What technique is this for deboning fish?

So skilled!

How did he do it?

——【He used just one chopstick to debone the entire saury?】

——【The whole process took 17 seconds! I was timing it!】

——【Shocking Fatty Di for ten thousand years!】

——【Seems like I've learned some incredible foodie trivia√】

Qin Feng's move instantly sparked Reba's interest!

"Teach me quickly, coach; I want to learn this!"

"Wanting to learn everything? Figure it out yourself."

While the two were talking.

A stray cat lay by the window, staring longingly at the fish on the table.

It was an orange cat, looking dirty all over.

Covered in dust and grime, and soaked by the rain.

Shivering, with round, teary eyes.

Meow~

The cat's cry came along with the pattering rain outside the window.

Its small body was very thin, curled up, only a tiny bit bigger than a fist.

"What's that noise?" Reba asked, perking up her ears.

Qin Feng turned to look at the window, then took the deboned fish head out.

Reba pulled the slipper stuck under the sofa out.

When she put on her shoes and went out.

She found Qin Feng already squatting in front of the little cat.

Mmm-mmm-mmm~

Perhaps having been hungry for a long time.

This rare morsel made the little cat emit a whining sound.

As if guarding its food, or perhaps expressing gratitude...

Such stray cats are too common.

Stray cats could be seen everywhere: in midnight trash cans, in the bushes at street corners.

"It's a little kitty!" Fat Di slowly squatted beside Qin Feng.

Qin Feng said nothing, merely watching as the little kitty finished the scattered bits of meat on the fish head.

Reba frowned and said, "Cats can't eat things that are too salty, right?"

"It's nearly starving to death; it's not as delicate as you think."

Qin Feng stood up and said, "Alright, the fish head is gone. Next time there are leftovers, I'll give them to you."

"Let's go buy cat food for it tomorrow!" Reba said.

Qin Feng asked, "Do you want to adopt it?"

Reba nodded her head like a pestle pounding rice!

The little creature, soaked by the rain, had stirred a surge of maternal instinct in her.

Qin Feng continued, "After the program finishes recording, will you still be able to keep it?"

This question made Reba hesitate for a few seconds.

Then she nodded again and said, "Yes!"

"Fine, then from now on, you're its mother." Qin Feng added indifferently, "You're the one adopting it; it has nothing to do with me."

Reba replied, "If I'm its mother, then you're its father! Of course, the fake kind."

"What is it?"

"Father!"

"Hey! No need to be so polite."

"Qin Feng, are you sick? We're discussing the adoption of this little creature."

Clomp, clomp, clomp~

Reba ran into the house and took out a box of yogurt she had bought that afternoon.

She tore open the yogurt seal and licked the lid herself first.

Then she gave the rest to the little orange cat.
