“What’s up? It’s not a big deal, why so serious…”

She’s always like this, quite carefree about things outside of mechs. Mo Si mentioned his intention to recruit Jiang Qiuqiu into the team and said, “If you tell me something I don’t want to hear, I can discipline you. Speaking inappropriately like this will only make the timid girl nervous. I hope, Comrade Mo Chengyu, you can look at the relationship between me and Jiang Qiuqiu with a normal perspective in the future.”

“Don’t interfere with my understanding and recruitment of her.”

He said everything so formally, leaving Mo Chengyu completely discouraged. Alright, shouldn’t have expected a straight-laced guy to have idol fantasies, shouldn’t have imagined a chance encounter with a destiny like a kitchen maid’s. Big brother has always been so practical, always focusing on recruiting.

…Seriously.

It would be nice if finding a girlfriend had the same mindset as recruiting soldiers.

“I understand.”

“Don’t make jokes like this in the future.”

“You know I was joking.” Mo Si told his little sister, “In the future, watch fewer weird movies and other things. Jiang Qiuqiu is still a young girl in my eyes. Don’t always have those unrealistic thoughts.”

“I understand…”

After lecturing his sister, Mo Si still didn’t get up from his dining chair.

He instructed the housekeeping robot to quickly clean up the dishes on the table, then told Mo Chengyu to lead the robot to deliver the items to Jiang Qiuqiu’s house.

“She might need the dishes urgently, so you should take them back.”

Feeling deflated after being scolded, Mo Chengyu muttered to herself. Soon, I will leave the villa with my bodyguards.

Once everyone was gone, Mo Si slowly stood up and quickly went to the top floor, to his temporary room.

Familiar mental strength surged, familiar but uncontrollable.

And there, in front of the mirror, the tail swayed familiarly, “blossoming.”

This won’t do…

Next door.

After Jiang Qiuqiu came back, she started preparing for today’s food showcase. The previous special on “Gugu Meat” was already done, and now Jiang Qiuqiu hadn’t planned to start another one yet, so the food she was making now was quite free.

Fans said that even though they couldn’t eat meat anymore, they were still excited to see the menu every day!

So, what to make today?

Opening the temperature-controlled food storage, there were a variety of ingredients. Jiang Qiuqiu had originally planned to make braised pork rice again before, but after today passed, she suddenly felt a little bit sweet about the day.

So, let’s bring back a dish that fits the mood! It seemed like she had never brought back mini cakes before, so let’s make that dessert today.

Just as she finished beating the eggs, she heard Mo Chengyu’s penetrating voice at the door.

“Qiuqiu! Are you there? I brought something for you!”

She wiped her hands and went to the door.

“Sis Cheng, you could have just let the housekeeper bring it over, why bother coming over yourself? It’s too much trouble for you.”

“Not at all, I wanted to come over and talk to you myself! Do you have time to answer a few questions for me?”

“What’s on your mind, come in and talk. I’ll continue making the cake.”

Although the matter she wanted to discuss was important, Mo Chengyu couldn’t help but ask when she heard the word “cake”, “Are you making cake today? The sweet cake we had last time?”

“Yes.”

“!”

Mo Chengyu clasped her hands to her chest, her eyes sparkling, “Can I have some?”

“Of course. You can have as much as you want!”

“That’s great!” She happily followed Jiang Qiuqiu to the kitchen.

Then Qiuqiu asked her, “By the way, Sis Cheng, you mentioned you wanted to ask me a few questions earlier, what are they?”

—

“Wait, let me think.” She was too happy just now, she actually forgot the questions.

Oh right, she remembered.

“Qiuqiu, when I went out today, didn’t you spend time alone with that ‘Hei Dong’? How do you feel about him? Did he argue with you in the afternoon?”
