029

Yi Feng retched twice and hurriedly ran to the bathroom, vomiting everything he had eaten along with the stomach acid until he was completely empty.

When he came out of the bathroom, his face was somewhat pale. He pointed at Gu Muxi with a tragic expression, "Gu Muxi, what grudge do I have against you?"

"You actually dared to poison me!"

Gu Muxi: "..."

"Was it really that bad?"

She had been looking forward to Yi Feng having a better reaction after eating, but it seemed… the reaction was a bit too much.

He actually vomited…

That shouldn't happen!

It wasn't that bad, was it?

"Gu Muxi, I have undergone specialized training. No matter how disgusting, I can endure it, unless… it's extremely disgusting!"

"Don't believe me, you can try it yourself."

"And there were even eggshells in the noodles! Gu Muxi, is this also your secret recipe?"

Gu Muxi still couldn't believe it, how could it be extremely disgusting?

It couldn't have made someone vomit, right?

It must be Yi Feng, that stinker, exaggerating!

"I don't believe it, I'll try it myself."

Gu Muxi picked up Yi Feng's chopsticks, took a chopstick full for herself, and put it into her mouth.

"Hmm?"

Gu Muxi immediately felt a mix of flavors in her mouth, sour, sweet, salty, and the disgusting taste of burnt food.

These complex flavors caused her stomach to churn.

"Blargh!!"

She couldn't help but vomit it out, vomiting all over the floor, then dashed into the bathroom.

After a while, she came out of the bathroom, leaning against the wall…

"How is it, delicious, right?" Yi Feng cleaned the floor, looked up, and asked with a smile.

Gu Muxi gave an embarrassed smile, having boasted in front of Yi Feng only to fail spectacularly…

It was truly embarrassing!

In the future, she would probably become a joke in Yi Feng's mouth…

"Cough cough, I admit the taste was off by a bit, so… it's better if you do the cooking!"

Yi Feng did not continue to mock her.

He had thought that Gu Muxi's cooking skills were average, but he didn't expect reality to be so far from his imagination.

"How about this, I'll teach you how to do it, so you won't starve to death when you're alone at home and can't even cook noodles."

"I'll teach you hands-on, close personal guidance." Yi Feng smiled.

Gu Muxi was delighted at his offer.

"Okay!"

Yi Feng and Gu Muxi went to the kitchen.

"Now, follow my steps."

"Before officially cooking the noodles, we need to prepare the preliminaries."

"Boil the water, add enough water, a bit more water, and make sure the temperature is right, warm, so the noodles are smooth and tender."

Gu Muxi was stunned, feeling that Yi Feng's words were odd, but couldn't pinpoint what was wrong at the moment.

"Do we need that much water?" she asked doubtfully.

"Yes, more water makes it smoother." Yi Feng said earnestly.

"Before adding the noodles, let's prepare the preliminaries, cut some vegetables."

"Here, you hold the knife, and I'll teach you the correct way to hold it."

Yi Feng pulled her in front of him, then embraced her from behind, holding her hands, picking up the kitchen knife.

"Holding the knife like this could easily cut your fingers."

"It should be like this." Yi Feng patiently instructed.

But at this moment, Gu Muxi felt Yi Feng's breath by her ear, her face and ears turned red, her heart beating fast.

Why is this happening?

Gu Muxi, don't get distracted, focus!

She told herself.

But now, with the two of them so close, especially with Yi Feng holding her hands, it made her heart flutter.

"Gu Muxi, did you get all that?"

"Ah? Uh, yes… I got it." Gu Muxi snapped back to reality, dazedly said.

"Then try cutting it yourself, see how it feels." Yi Feng released her hands.

"Uh okay."

Gu Muxi, following Yi Feng's way of holding the knife, slowly cut, and indeed, it was much neater than before.

"Wow, it really is much easier to cut!" She exclaimed, pleased as if she had learned a new skill.

"Cutting vegetables requires finesse, not brute force, practice a few times, and you'll get used to it." Yi Feng smiled.

"I understand!" Gu Muxi nodded.

She got better and faster at cutting, maintaining the technique even as she sped up.

"You're doing well, you've grasped it so quickly, seems your aptitude is not bad!" Yi Feng praised.

"That's because I learn things quickly!" Gu Muxi said proudly.

"Sssss—"

At that moment, the water boiled.

Yi Feng chuckled, "Gu Muxi, watch carefully."

"To take out the noodles from the tube, just grasp it with your hand to measure the amount."

"Feel its thickness with a grasp of your hand."

"See, like this, just enough to fit in one hand, that's the right amount for two people."

"Because the noodles expand in the warm environment, becoming thicker."

"If you put too much, you won't be able to finish it by yourself, it requires two people to consume it."

"Come, try holding it, feel the thickness of this amount."

Yi Feng handed the noodles to her, Gu Muxi caught them with one hand, grasped it, and realized, "So this thickness is just right!"

Yi Feng winked, "Now you can put it into the pot, but it's best to insert it from the middle, then let it spread out on its own."

"It will spread out and move on its own according to the flow of the water."

"Insert it…?" Gu Muxi paused, then followed his method, inserting the noodles into the pot, and letting go.

Indeed, the noodles spread out in all directions, softening in the hot water.

"Next, you need to stir it vigorously, with plenty of water, only thorough stirring will allow it to blend with the water and make the noodles expand and thicken." Yi Feng instructed seriously.

"Oh okay…" Gu Muxi pursed her lips, following his method.

Seeing the noodles were about done, Yi Feng said, "Now you can add the eggs and vegetables."

"Just don't throw the eggshells in again."

"You can crack them into a bowl first, then pour them into the pot."

"To make sure you're not adding any eggshells."

Gu Muxi gave an embarrassed smile, "That, that was a mistake!"

Add the egg, put in the vegetables, and a simple pinch of salt for seasoning.

Two bowls of noodles were finally completed with their joint effort.

The egg noodles were brought to the table, emitting the fragrance of egg soup.

The golden eggs and green lettuce were mixed together, looking delicious.

Gu Muxi was very satisfied.

So, cooking noodles wasn't that difficult after all!

And, it turns out Yi Feng is quite skilled at cooking!

Yi Feng laughed, "How is it, my noodles are not bad, right?"

"Good, good."

"We're all hungry, let's eat quickly!" Gu Muxi picked up her chopsticks, ready to dig in, but Yi Feng stopped her.

"Wait a moment, there's a method to eating noodles too."

"Hm?"

"First, lightly lick with your tongue, feel the warm and moist noodle soup, then slowly separate the messy vegetables, lick a mouthful of the delicious broth, and finally pick it up. Remember, no need to bite, suck it in, this way you can fully enjoy the smoothness of the noodle soup."

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you."

Gu Muxi ate according to his method and her eyes lit up immediately.

"It's really tasty!!"

"Stinky Yi Feng, your noodles are really delicious!"
