[World 2] Chapter 28

　　Jiang Mu didn't react to Qin Siyu's sudden joining.

　　If Qin Siyu wants to help, then let her do it, and Jiang Mu just stands aside silently.

　　Bai Xue ignored Qin Siyu. Qin Siyu stood there not knowing what to do. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.

　　At this time Jiang Mu said softly: "Today we have potatoes, tomatoes, pork ribs, chicken, and some vegetables."

　　Qin Siyu looked at Jiang Mu and noticed that her eyes were red. Seeing that she was answering her in a friendly manner, she felt a little fond of her. She actually didn't like Jiang Mu very much before.

　　"Then let me help wash the vegetables." Qin Siyu said with a smile.

　　Bai Xue said, "It's too crowded."

　　Qin Siyu didn't react, with a smile on her face, "What?"

　　Bai Xue stopped what he was doing and looked at her calmly, "Three people makes it too crowded."

　　Qin Siyu's expression suddenly became very awkward. Although the kitchen was not big, it wouldn't be too crowded for three people to stand in it.

　　Qin Siyu was annoyed. Bai Xue meant that she was not needed here.

　　This is not the first time this has happened. Bai Xue often spoils the mood and makes people lose face.

　　"Okay, then I'll go out and watch you do it. I don't have anything to do anyway."

　　Qin Siyu walked out of the narrow kitchen and stood at the bar looking at them.

　　Jiang Mu kept her head down washing the vegetables, and then she started peeling garlic. Although her movements were not fast, she did it very seriously.

　　Qin Siyu discovered that Bai Xue would occasionally glance at Jiang Mu. Although there was nothing special about his eyes, Bai Xue would never look at her more than once.

　　Why is it different when it comes to Jiang Mu?

　　Is it because Jiang Mu is more beautiful?

　　This made Qin Siyu very unhappy, and the little bit of good impression she had of Jiang Mu for helping her out just now disappeared in an instant.

　　She looked at Jiang Mu, "I remember you said you can't cook, so Bai Xue will cook for dinner today, right?"

　　Her words is a bit embarrassing.

　　But she was smiling when she spoke, and her eyes were gentle. If Jiang Mu reacted strongly, Qin Siyu could pretend to be surprised and hurt and say that she was just asking and blamed Jiang Mu for being too sensitive.

　　But Jiang Mu disappointed her and said, "Actually, I can make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and I will learn the other things as well."

　　Jiang Mu's face was full of seriousness, as if she was cheering herself up. She looked so adorable that people wanted to touch her head.

　　Qin Siyu paused and could only say, "Is that so? Then you should do your best."

　　Next, Qin Siyu saw Bai Xue and Jiang Mu cooperating with each other, one washing vegetables while the other cutting vegetables, one cooking while the other passing plates, and they cooperated very well.

　　Bai Xue didn't speak, and Jiang Mu didn't take the initiative to talk, but even without verbal communication, their eyes always met inadvertently, as if Jiang Mu could understand what Bai Xue wanted and what he wanted to do with just one look. This kind of touch actually sparked more sparks.

　　Qin Siyu felt a little jealous, but couldn't say anything.

　　Time passed slowly, and the dishes were completed one by one. The dishes made by Bai Xue were colorful, fragrant and delicious. The aroma spread far away, which could arouse people's appetite.

　　Jiang Mu whispered, "I'm hungry. It smells so good."

　　Bai Xue glanced at her and said, "Bring the dishes over first."

　　"Okay." Jiang Mu nodded, picked up two plates and walked out.

　　Seeing Jiang Mu walk out of the kitchen, Qin Siyu thought for a moment and took the initiative to say, "It's getting late, how many dishes are left? How about I help make some cold dishes? I'm quite good at it."

　　At this time, several other guests had come downstairs. When they saw Jiang Mu arranging the dishes, everyone's expressions changed a little. It was Zhao Jiajia who took the initiative to greet them.

　　"Jiang Mu, did you cook these dishes? They smell so good."

　　Jiang Mu just shook her head and didn't say anything.

　　Zhao Jiajia was a little embarrassed. She was not used to Jiang Mu's cold attitude. Jiang Mu had been ostracized by others before, and she was very dependent and enthusiastic towards her.

　　The other people didn't say anything, but they all felt that Jiang Mu had changed a little.

　　She used to be very proactive and active in talking to everyone, but now that she stops talking, everyone still looks at her involuntarily.

　　She lowered her head and arranged the dishes, her expression indifferent, but exuding a gentle aura.

　　Jiang Mu put the plates away and turned to walk towards the kitchen. Her place had already been taken by Qin Siyu.

　　Qin Siyu didn't get Bai Xue's consent, but when she saw that Bai Xue didn't say anything, she went over to make the cold dish.

　　Zhou Jing saw that it was Qin Siyu who was cooking, and asked in confusion: "Siyu, aren't Jiang Mu and Bai Xue the partners today? Why are you cooking?"

　　Zhao Jiajia smiled and said, "Jiang Mu can't cook. She might be afraid that she won't cook well, so she asked Siyu to help."

　　Zhao Jiajia was openly speaking for Jiang Mu, but in fact she was secretly criticizing Jiang Mu for not being able to cook and being lazy.

　　Zhou Jing snorted, walked over and said, "If you don't know how to cook, then you don't have to cook? I remember Siyu said that she rarely cooks."

　　Jiang Mu did not defend herself. She lowered her head and silently went to serve the prepared dishes.

　　Zhao Jiajia looked at Jiang Mu puzzledly.

　　She thought Jiang Mu would explain angrily, so that she could say Jiang Mu was too sensitive. No one blamed her, but just thought that even if she couldn't cook, she should try.

　　But Jiang Mu didn't say anything, so she couldn't say anything.

　　What made her even more uncomfortable was that Jiang Mu became more attractive when she didn't speak.

　　She was quiet, but her whole body seemed to be glowing.

　　Zhao Jiajia noticed that the other boys looked at Jiang Mu a few more times.

　　Although they didn't say anything, this made Zhao Jiajia feel a sense of crisis.

　　She has changed a lot after her rebirth. She was very confident that Jiang Mu could no longer suppress her, but now Jiang Mu seemed to be getting out of her control.

　　Zhao Jiajia felt that she still had to find a way to make Jiang Mu continue to trust her and make everyone else isolate Jiang Mu.

　　"Jiang Mu, how about I teach you how to cook? Then you can cook by yourself next time." Zhao Jiajia walked towards Jiang Mu with a smile.

　　Jiang Mu didn't even look at her and shook her head, "No need, I can learn it myself."

　　Zhao Jiajia was a little depressed, and said with pursed lips: "Jiang Mu, are you still blaming me... I really didn't mean it, I just wanted to help you... I didn't expect it to be like this."

　　Jiang Mu didn't say anything.

　　Zhao Jiajia: "How about this, I'll pay for the watch, okay?"

　　Jiang Mu suddenly looked at her seriously: "Whether you did it on purpose or not, I ruined it by washing it. I will take responsibility. I can buy the watch myself."

　　After that, she went to the kitchen.

　　Qin Siyu was still making salad in the kitchen. When she saw Jiang Mu, she didn't show any intention of moving aside. Jiang Mu didn't urge her either, but just stood by and waited.

　　Qin Siyu frowned. Of course she saw Jiang Mu standing beside her waiting. She was very surprised. Jiang Mu's action made her feel passive.

　　Even if Jiang Mu told her to go away, she would still have something to say to embarrass Jiang Mu, but Jiang Mu just stood there, which gave her invisible pressure.

　　A salad is actually very simple to make. She could have finished it long ago, but she was just procrastinating. Now it was no time to waste any more time, so she put the salad into a deep plate and carried it out.

　　"It's ready. Are you hungry? You can try the salad I made."

　　After Qin Siyu left, Jiang Mu glanced at Bai Xue and said, "Then I'll make some scrambled eggs with tomatoes."

　　Bai Xue said, "You cut the tomatoes."

　　"Yeah." Jiang Mu nodded softly.

　　The original owner couldn't cook, but Jiang Mu could. She was a housewife in her previous life and she often cooked before, so simple home-cooked meals were not difficult for her at all.

　　Just to maintain the original owner's personality, she couldn't show her true cooking skills all at once.

　　Although Bai Xue was cold towards Jiang Mu, when Jiang Mu was cutting tomatoes, his attention was all on Jiang Mu's hands.

　　Jiang Mu held the tomato with one hand and held the knife with the other, clumsily cutting the tomato into pieces. The cut shapes were not good-looking, but her eyes were so focused that it made people want to laugh.

　　Even if you cut it so carefully, it can still look so ugly.

　　It's also a bit cute in a stupid way.

　　Bai Xue couldn't help but stare at her face and was lost in thought for a while.

　　Jiang Mu noticed it, but didn't look up.

　　It was a bit difficult for her to pretend. It was very uncomfortable for her to see such an ugly scene. It was really strange that she had to pretend to be a fool even though she was obviously very capable.

　　About two minutes later, Jiang Mu finished cutting two tomatoes. She looked up at Bai Xue nervously.

　　"Bai Xue."

　　When Bai Xue heard Jiang Mu calling his name, he felt for the first time that his own name could be so gentle.

　　He used to think that his name was as cold as his personality.

　　"Hmm?" Bai Xue eyes looked a little strange, his eyelids drooped slightly, and he didn't look directly at Jiang Mu.

　　"Is it okay if I cut it like this?" Jiang Mu asked slowly.

　　Jiang Mu's voice was soft, and every word seemed to strike his heart.

　　Bai Xue hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Yeah."

　　"That's good." Jiang Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "I'm pretty good at cutting tomatoes. I said I can make scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Then, next I'll crack the eggs."

　　Bai Xue: "…"

　　Bai Xue felt strange when he saw her talking to herself happily.

　　It's really easy to coax.

　　I used to think she was just a troublesome girl, but now it seems that she is actually very cute.

　　"Crack the eggs in this bowl."

　　Bai Xue handed Jiang Mu a bowl.

　　Jiang Mu was stunned for a moment, seeming a little surprised, "...Okay."

　　Bai Xue was also surprised that he would take the initiative to do this, but the words were already out. Seeing that Jiang Mu did not reach out to take the bowl, he put the bowl in front of Jiang Mu and turned to do other things.

　　Jiang Mu smiled and said softly, "Thank you."

　　Bai Xue paused, without any other reaction.

　　Jiang Mu beat four eggs in a bowl, beat them with chopsticks, then added some salt and stirred evenly.

　　After finishing the preparations, she washed the pot, wiped it dry, and poured oil into it.

　　Bai Xue saw that she did the right thing and couldn't help but stand there to see what she would do next.

　　Jiang Mu looked up at him, as if wanting to get his affirmation.

　　Bai Xue saw through her thoughts and nodded slightly.

　　Jiang Mu smiled brightly, and then started to proceed to the next step.

　　Bai Xue was a little confused and felt a little strange in his heart.

　　Is his attitude really that important to her?

　　Jiang Mu slowly prepared the scrambled eggs with tomatoes. When she finally served it, she picked up a piece of egg and said, "Do you want to try it?"

　　Bai Xue wanted to refuse, but when he saw Jiang Mu's expectant eyes, he nodded somehow.

　　Jiang Mu was very happy.

　　She stretched out her hand to put it into Bai Xue's mouth. Although Bai Xue was not used to it, he still leaned over to eat.

　　Jiang Mu suddenly said: "Ah, wait a minute."

　　Bai Xue stopped and looked at her.

　　Jiang Mu lowered her head and blew on the egg, and he noticed that she also stood on tiptoe, which was very cute.

　　"It's too hot. It will burn you."

　　Jiang Mu blew it twice, then smiled and put it back to his mouth.

　　Bai Xue still didn't move, he looked at her pink lips.

　　A tempting voice sounded in his heart.

　　"I want to eat her."

　　Jiang Mu pursed her lips, "Don't you want to eat?"

　　Bai Xue said in a hoarse voice: "I want to eat."

　　Bai Xue stared at Jiang Mu's lips, then lowered his head and ate the egg.

　　"How is it?" Jiang Mu looked at him hopefully, "Is it delicious?"

　　Bai Xue was very surprised by his secret thoughts. This was the first time he had such a feeling.

　　That's too weird.

　　Bai Xue suppressed those strange feelings, stopped looking at Jiang Mu, and said in a deliberately cold voice: "It's okay."

　　He thought Jiang Mu would be disappointed and sad if he said this, but unexpectedly, Jiang Mu was very happy after hearing it.

　　"Really? As long as it's not bad, that's fine."

　　Faced with Jiang Mu's innocence, Bai Xue felt that his strange thoughts were even more inappropriate.

　　In fact, the scrambled eggs with tomatoes tasted pretty good. Although it didn't look good, it was much better than he had imagined.

　　Maybe the smaller the expectation, the bigger the surprise.

　　Bai Xue added, "Not bad."

　　But Jiang Mu didn't hear this and had already brought the dishes he cooked to the kitchen.

　　Qin Siyu saw the dish in Jiang Mu's hand and asked, "What is this? Scrambled eggs with tomatoes? Is it made by Bai Xue?"

　　Zhou Jing also took a look and said, "No way, Bai Xue's knife skills are quite good."

　　Jiang Mu: "I did it."

　　"You made it?" Qin Siyu said in surprise: "This is what you said about being able to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes."

　　Zhao Jiajia smiled and said, "Jiang Mu can't cook, so this is already great. Maybe it will taste good?"

　　Jiang Mu whispered: "Bai Xue said it's not bad..."

　　"Did Bai Xue say that?" Qin Siyu widened her eyes.

　　"Um."

　　"I didn't expect Bai Xue to be so good at comforting people..." said Zhao Jiajia.

　　Qin Siyu smiled awkwardly: "Yeah, I didn't expect it."

　　Wu Zeye took a pair of chopsticks from somewhere and reached for the bowl of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

　　Zhao Jiajia called him in surprise, "Ze Ye, do you really want to eat?"

　　Wu Zeye glanced at her calmly, "Yeah."

　　"Let me get you a glass of water first."
