‘Ok…’ Gu Jing said reluctantly

Gu Jing was captivated by Zhen Lang’s cooking skills He tossed a pan of stir fried vegetables with one hand, he held a ladle with his other hand to stir a pot of soup Occasionally he glanced at the electric rice cooker

Gu Jing was envious how she and Zhen Lang grew up under the sale with anything On the other hand she struggled with everything She studied hard in school whilst he excelled through school without a sweat She couldn’t peel a potato but he could grow a potato patch if he wanted to

Zhen Lang pointed a finger at the bowl of unwashed herbs ‘Wash the herbs’

Gu Jing snapped out of her envy She filled the kitchen sink ater and she washed the herbs She dried the herbs and drops of water were accidently flung onto Zhen Lang’s shi+rt and pants

Gu Jing widened her innocent eyes

Zhen Lang smiled ‘Remember to mop the floors’

Gu Jing presented a red apple to Zhen Lang ‘The bathroom is spotless Do you want me to peel an apple for you to eat before you shower?’

Gu Jing threw the empty small bottle of laxatives in the rubbish bin and she hummed to her bedroom She kicked her bedroo on her bed ‘You dare treat me like your housemaid? You’ll be lucky if your intestines don’t burst tomorrow!’
