Chapter 1216: Feeling Trapped

Although Gao Ji was eccentric, he was not foolish and caught the key point in Qiao Duo'er's words immediately.

He narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you asking for my help to cook the dishes?"

"Yes, with Mr. Gao's excellent culinary skills and constant pursuit, it shouldn't be difficult," Qiao Duo'er responded, unfazed by how her thoughts had been revealed.

Because she found dealing with clever people a pleasurable affair.

Gao Ji replied irritably, "Don't think that by flattering me a few times, I'll slave away for you. There are plenty in the world who flatter me."

Yet some people, let alone eating his food, had not even seen his face.

"Since Mr. Gao is unwilling, I won't force it upon anyone and will have to find another chef."

Duo'er showed a look of regret but was already standing up.

Gao Ji gritted his teeth, puzzled how he, the one being sought after, felt as if he was being controlled.

Thinking about the two dishes he had just tasted, he felt a relentless itch.
