Chapter 1160 - 1165: Perfect!
"Use less vinegar?" Su Zi was momentarily stunned. Then, she finally reacted. Tang Rou was subtly hinting that she shouldn’t be too obviously jealous in front of Lin Feng, otherwise, he wouldn’t like it!Tang Rou was using this opportunity to critique the dish to convey Lin Feng’s thoughts to her?! Su Zi looked at Tang Rou with a peculiar gaze. She thought Tang Rou was the petty type who wanted to take a jab at her lacking culinary skills, only to realize that Tang Rou was actually warning her about Lin Feng’s personality...
What kind of magnanimity is this? Su Zi was momentarily dazed.
Ning Aoxue also looked at Tang Rou with a strange expression. She couldn’t quite grasp Tang Rou’s behavior either, wondering if Tang Rou was genuinely this generous. Even if she suspected Su Zi had something with Lin Feng, she didn’t mind at all and even openly advised Su Zi on how to please Lin Feng?
No matter what Ning Aoxue and Su Zi thought, Tang Rou still wore a sweet smile on her face and continued speaking, "As for this tomato scrambled eggs, there’s the same small mistake, which is that there’s too much tomato, making the whole dish too tangy... Some might like this taste, but I know Lin Feng doesn’t like bitterness, nor does he like overly sour flavors!"
Lin Feng nodded, acknowledging Tang Rou’s statement. It’s not that he disliked bitterness and sourness, but he preferred spicy and salty flavors. The sourness was just something he could barely stomach... This was also why he wasn’t fond of the dishes Su Zi made; the girl’s taste was a bit peculiar.
"As for this steamed bass..." Tang Rou picked up her chopsticks, took a piece of fish, tasted it, and after a few chews, she laughed lightly and said, "The flavor is a bit too bland. Although steamed dishes are healthy, there’s too little salt; Lin Feng wouldn’t like it either!"
What did Tang Rou mean by this? Su Zi still thought that Tang Rou was hinting at something and was racking her brains. However, the next second, she was dumbfounded... because she saw Tang Rou actually go to the salt jar, take out a small spoonful of salt, and add it to the plate of steamed bass, showing that Tang Rou wasn’t implying anything else!
"Overall, for a beginner, these dishes are not bad!" Tang Rou smiled faintly at Su Zi and said somewhat meaningfully, "Lin Feng, let’s eat..."
"Eat, eat..." Lin Feng wasn’t as thoughtful about Tang Rou’s words as Su Zi. Having finally heard the word "eat," he eagerly sat down at the dining table and started eating heartily.
Although Tang Rou was also hungry for a long time, her appetite was small. After eating a few bites of rice, she started smiling and giving Lin Feng more food...
Su Zi and Ning Aoxue looked a bit serious as they watched Tang Rou’s actions. When they thought back to their own usual behavior, they realized that for whatever reason, they rarely ever served Lin Feng food at the table...
No wonder Lin Feng liked Tang Rou so much, and announced from the beginning that she was his girlfriend. Until today, both Su Zi and Ning Aoxue finally had a new understanding of the gentle and gracious Tang Rou!
Competing with such a woman was unwise! Perhaps the harder they fought, the more Lin Feng would reminisce about Tang Rou’s endless tenderness! Thinking of this, Su Zi felt a bit powerless...
As for Ning Aoxue, her thoughts were even more complex. She glanced at Su Zi, then at Tang Rou, and finally, only in sorrow, her gaze fell on the TV broadcasting a program, her eyes losing focus.
By the time Lin Feng was almost done devouring Su Zi’s cooking, he felt quite full. After drinking the last mouthful of soup, he contentedly patted his slightly bloated belly.
At this point, Lin Feng sluggishly remembered that Tang Rou had said the sweet and sour pork and the tomato scrambled eggs were very sour, yet, when he ate them, they weren’t that sour. Maybe this girl was just exaggerating!
After seeing Lin Feng finish his meal, Tang Rou gently took out a napkin and wiped the corner of his mouth without saying a word.
"Little Rou, let me do it!" Lin Feng was a bit embarrassed, holding Tang Rou’s hand, conscious that Su Zi was still watching.
"It’s okay, you were too tired last night, just rest..." Even though Lin Feng held her jade-like hand, Tang Rou didn’t let go. Her face was a bit stubborn as she said to Lin Feng, "Let me wipe it for you!"
"Alright then..." Lin Feng smiled wryly and nodded, allowing Tang Rou to seriously wipe the corner of his mouth clean.
Su Zi and Ning Aoxue watched Tang Rou’s actions with strange expressions, wondering if she was intentionally putting on a show for them.
After wiping Lin Feng’s mouth, Tang Rou suddenly said something unexpected to everyone present.
"Alright... Lin Feng, Su Zi, Aoxue, I need to head home! I’ll come hang out again when I have time!"
Having said that, Tang Rou waved at Lin Feng directly and walked out.
For a moment, not only Ning Aoxue and Su Zi were stunned, but even Lin Feng was a bit dumbfounded. He hurriedly grabbed Tang Rou’s hand, somewhat panicked, asking, "Why are you in such a rush to leave?"
In Lin Feng’s mind, Tang Rou must be upset with him. He couldn’t let this girl leave in anger; she had to make her feelings clear...
Tang Rou knew why Lin Feng was anxious, yet her expression didn’t show any anger. She simply smiled charmingly and said to Lin Feng, "Lin Feng, don’t overthink it. I have class in the afternoon... I don’t want to skip!"
Lin Feng was taken aback... He almost forgot he was still a student himself, yet he didn’t realize Tang Rou was thinking about her afternoon classes!
Su Zi and Ning Aoxue also had a slight change in expression. Recently, they had been less concerned about their classes, even as the semester was nearing its end. The two girls had been attending classes less frequently. Ning Aoxue was doing alright, managing to keep up with her coursework, while Su Zi would probably only start cramming a week before the exams.
"Then... shall I take you back?" Lin Feng looked at Tang Rou with some embarrassment, smiling as he said this.
"No need, I already texted the driver before dinner; he’s waiting outside for me!" Tang Rou pointed outside the villa. Sure enough, the same car that brought her to the Jincheng residential area the night before was waiting outside.
Seeing that Tang Rou didn’t seem upset, Lin Feng finally felt relieved to send her off. After watching her get in the car and leave, he returned to the villa.
Sitting on the sofa and contemplating life for a while, Lin Feng also realized that recently he had been too relaxed about his studies. After all, he was a student, and not having been back to school for so long, his classmates might not even recognize him!
This concern of Lin Feng’s wasn’t unfounded, because university courses were relatively few, and the seating wasn’t fixed each time, often mixed with students from other classes. Sometimes, classmates don’t even recognize each other after a semester, and over time, some students who rarely attended could become invisible in class...
Like Lin Feng, who hadn’t shown up even once in several weeks, it wasn’t unusual for him to be forgotten by everyone except a few dorm mates.
