Fleeting Fortune: A Pampered Life

Chapter 591: 377 Braised Fish Incident Leading to Pink and Bloodshed (2 Updates)_2

“Yo, Jiang Chengsi, since when did you start caring about these things?”

“I don’t care, but my brother does. Recently, he forcedto go for a check-up and even madesee a

psychologist, thinking there was something wrong with my sexual orientation.” Jiang Chengsi was fuming.

But Jiang Shiyi just laughed and said, “Actually, liking men is nothing to be ashamed of. I'm very open-minded,

but don’t suppress your true self. If you really like men, getting married to a woman in the future would be

extremely irresponsible toward her and the children.”

“A check-up isn’t a bad idea.”

Qi Zeyan burst into laughter upon hearing this, “Your brother is awesome, haha, I've noticed you've been getting

more behaved since he cback.”

“Why don’t you cover to my place? There's a spare key under the flowerpot at my doorstep. Help yourself.”

“I'm afraid of bumping into your brother.”

“Isn’t Old Huo in Beijing? Why not hide out at his place? It's so secure, even flies can hardly get in, not to

mention paparazzi being too scared to bother you.”

“Old Huo's place...”

Ever since the bridal shop incident, Qi Zeyan had fled and hadn't seen him since.

They were friends, after all, and couldn't possibly avoid each other forever. After pondering for a moment, Qi

Zeyan decided it was safest to stay at the Huo Family's place. Thinking so, he went to his office to grab his

laptop and even bought sdesserts and snacks, planning to stay over at the Huo family’s house tonight.

His place was too boring, with too much routine and no late-night snacks. Since it was too far to reliably order

delivery in the middle of the night, it was better to be prepared.

After making his purchases, he happily drove straight to Hexi.

At that moment, Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang were in the photo studio, where the staff was introducing them to

different photography packages and their prices. Tang Wan, feeling a bit dazzled, turned to Jiang Jinsang, “Which

style do you like?”

“These few.” Jiang Jinsang could have said ‘anything’ or ‘all of them,” but he also gave her his opinion when

appropriate.

They were there today mainly to check out the package styles, not to immediately take photos.

As they were leaving, Tang Wan got into the car and noticed she had made the trending list again, which would

surely affect Qi Zeyan. She tried calling him, “Why is his phone off?”

“Too many people calling him; he’s probably turned it off and is hiding somewhere.” As a long-tfriend, she

knew him well.

“Has he gone home?”

“Either Fourth Brother's place or Old Huo’s, but Fourth Brother might not be willing to take him in.”

Tang Wan thought of the “cult cp” and smiled knowingly, “Right, I'm going to my aunt's place for dinner

tomorrow. She’s cooking us braised fish herself.”

Jiang Jinsang, knowing Shen Shuci’s cooking skills, really wasn’t expecting much from the braised fish.

But tasting the fish would be a different story altogether...

Meanwhile, Shen Shuci was hard at work improving her cooking skills. Entering the kitchen, she neatly tied her

hair and earnestly followed someone's lead in cooking.

“Did you get all that?”

“Actually, | understand the steps pretty well; I've done it a few times at home. Maybe | just didn’t get the heat

right. The taste is also hard to describe.” Shen Shuci really didn’t understand—using the smethods, why the

appearance and taste would differ so much.

“Do it once, letwatch.” As he said this, he stepped aside to let her take the main chef's position.

Outside the kitchen, the folks of the Huo Family, although seemingly busy with their own things, kept their gazes

drifting towards the kitchen.

To someone not accustomed to cooking, dodging was an instinct.

She, like a startled cat, jumped back three feet.

Just moments ago, poised and confident like a master chef, and now this spectacle...

The Huo Family members couldn't help but laugh out loud, causing Shen Shuci to cough lightly, slightly

embarrassed.

At that moment, with the fish crackling in the pan, just as Shen Shuci was about to use the spatula to flip the

fish, someone had already swiftly done it for her.
