Girl, there's something wrong with you

I dug out the induction cooker and hot pot utensils from the cabinet, as well as the sealed cans containing the soup base. Fortunately, the shelf life had not expired.

Over there, Cheng Xinnan had already washed the meat and put it on the plate, and finished cutting the bamboo shoots, tofu and cabbage he brought. He took the hot pot from him and washed it under the faucet.

The next step is to collect the water, put the induction cooker on the dining table, throw the hot pot base into it, and heat it up.

The three of them sat around the dining table, watching the base melt in the water, gradually turning into a light golden color like chicken soup, and small bubbles popping out.

"By the way, Sister Xinnan." Cheng Jinyang tried to find a topic, "Have you heard about the attack on Zhongshan South Road today?"

"Yes." Cheng Xinnan was still staring at the bubbling noodle soup, as if checking whether the water had boiled. "I heard that a notice of closure has been issued to Liumen, saying that it was a refugee crossing the river who did it."

“How is that possible?”

She stood up and went to the kitchen to get a small plate with sauce: "What kind of sauce do you want?"

"I want the beef tendon bibimbap sauce in the refrigerator." Cheng Jinyang said.

"Thank you, just seafood soy sauce." Cheng Xinnan's taste was surprisingly simple.

Xing Yunzhi came back with a plate, and the hot pot was already rolling.

Cheng Jinyang couldn't wait to get inside.

"The Cheng family will worship their ancestors next Wednesday." Cheng Xinnan suddenly said, "Jinyang, will you go back with me?"

Cheng Jinyang was stunned for a moment and turned his gaze to Xing Yunzhi.

"You have decided for yourself, why do you want to see me?" Xing Yunzhi asked inexplicably.

Yes, even if she disagrees, she can't tell me to say no in front of Sister Xinnan. Cheng Jinyang thought to himself.

But judging from Ah Zhi's angry attitude, it was obvious that she didn't want me to go. As I said before, the attitude of the Cheng family in the city of God towards me has been unclear for a long time. It would be too passive to just go back like this. What if something happens...

"Sister Xinnan, don't talk about this for now, the meat is getting old." He smiled and picked up the serving chopsticks and picked up the meat for Cheng Xinnan, then Xing Yuanzhi, and finally himself.

"Well, think about it first and give me an answer next Tuesday at the latest." Cheng Xinnan understood what he meant instantly, so she cleverly gave him a step up.

The three of them began to eat meat. Xing Yunzhi's movements were slow and elegant; Cheng Xinnan's movements were similar, except that she lowered the chopsticks faster - these two people had obviously received corresponding etiquette training.

As for Cheng Jinyang, he is much more rude in this regard. But fortunately, the two girls next to him were a fiancée and a cousin, and they were not outsiders, so he dropped the pretense and let himself eat.

Xing Yuanzhi ate about a small bowl and then silently put down her chopsticks. She doesn't eat much, and it's already night and she will have nightmares later, so she doesn't plan to eat too much.

Cheng Xinnan was full after eating more than half a bowl, and then he kept adding meat, and then put it into Cheng Jinyang's bowl with a smile.

Xing Yunzhi's eyelids jumped: I'm still sitting here! You siblings actually show off your affection in front of me, my fiancée?

"Sister Xinnan, I'm full." Seeing Ah Zhi's cold expression, Cheng Jinyang quickly declined his cousin's kindness with a smile.

"You don't have enough appetite." Cheng Xinnan put down his chopsticks and said with a smile, "My Ayan is three years younger than you. I can eat at least three big bowls of this kind of beef shabu-shabu."

"My Jinyang family doesn't have a big appetite." Xing Yunzhi echoed from the side.

"The appetite is not large" means "you are not allowed to eat anymore", and he naturally knew the implication of Ah Zhi's words. Therefore, Cheng Jinyang pretended to touch his stomach and waved his hand with a wry smile: "I really can't eat anymore."

"Okay then." Cheng Xinnan stood up and looked out the window, "Ah, it's so late, I have to go back quickly."

"I'll see you off." Cheng Jinyang also stood up.

"No, you stay at home with Miss Azhi." Cheng Xinnan patted his shoulder, then quickly put on his shoes at the door and waved, "See you next time!"

she left.

"Hmph!" Xing Yunzhi snorted from her nose, her pretty face covered with frost, and she was obviously feeling very unhappy.

"What's wrong with you?" Cheng Jinyang asked with concern.

It was indeed beyond his expectation that Miss Ah Zhi, who had always been cold and cold, would be so angry.

Maybe she really doesn't get along with Sister Xinnan.

"It's nothing." Xing Yunzhi also realized that she had lost her composure, and slowly calmed down her anger, regained her fairy-like appearance, and pointed to the beef hot pot on the table, "You are not full, are you? Continue. Eat."

"Have you noticed?" Cheng Jinyang asked with a smile.

"How can I not tell?" You mean to continue eating after she leaves."

"In that case." Cheng Jinyang put the beef into the bowl again, "Then why do you hate her so much?"

Why do I hate her so much? Xing Yunzhi was slightly startled.

Is it because she has shown undisguised malice towards me?

Or is it because she called me Ah Zhi when we first met, and she did it again on purpose before leaving?

Or is it because of her outfit that completely disregards the dignity of the family?

Yes, maybe we are like two completely opposite extremes and cannot tolerate each other's existence at all...

Just as she was thinking about it, she heard Cheng Jinyang say with a smile:

"Hey, Ah Zhi. Are you jealous of her?"

Xing Yuanzhi:? ? ?

"First of all, as your fiancée, it is normal for me to be wary of women who approach you rashly." She said calmly and calmly, "This has nothing to do with whether you are jealous or not. You must know that if you end up feeling jealous, If you want to terminate this engagement with me, then the trusting relationship we have finally established with each other will probably disappear, which will be detrimental to both of us."

Indeed, Cheng Jinyang nodded in agreement.

Although the most fundamental reason why the two of them stay together now is based on interests, it doesn't sound good to say it after all... If you can cooperate with me purely for interests, one day in the future, you will definitely do it for greater interests. Decisively sell me out.

Therefore, by maintaining a cohabitation relationship in the name of a marriage contract, it is possible to develop feelings in the future. This is undoubtedly necessary to strengthen trust between the two parties at this stage - why else do politicians like to marry?

"Secondly." Xing Yunzhi continued, "If you continue to call me Azhi, the hot pot soup will suddenly fly up and smear your face."

"Sorry, I will pay attention next time." Cheng Jinyang said vaguely - because his mouth was full of beef.

"Humph." Xing Yunzhi stood up and went back to the room alone.

Cheng Jinyang, Cheng Xinnan...why are these Cheng family members so hateful!
