Chapter 221: Drink Less
Pickled vegetables, pork rib stew, chicken with mushrooms, stir-fried cabbage, egg, and tomato soup, and some plain stir-fried vegetables.
“The meal today… is scrumptious.”
“Actually, there are a bit fewer vegetables. I’m used to eating something with more vegetables.” Lu Ye filled up two bowls of rice and took out two wine glasses.
Gu Yan raised a brow. “Oh, are we drinking too?”
“Wifey, with this much food, a glass wouldn’t hurt.”
One cup was reasonable for Gu Yan. She blinked. “You made all these dishes?”
“Yeah.” Lu Ye passed some chopsticks to Gu Yan. He seemed proud. “Wifey, go ahead and have a try, see if it suits your taste.”
The meal was amazing for Gu Yan, who spent most of her life staying in an underdeveloped city.
After all, Zhang Lan was very stingy towards Gu Yan.
More importantly, aside from the splendid food, Lu Ye’s effort was praise-worthy.
Gu Yan knew that Lu Ye grew up with a silver spoon. If he didn’t enter the special training forces, chances were he might have turned out to be a spoiled young master.
Fortunately, the Lu Ye now was as hardworking as they come. He can even prepare meals of such proportion.
Lu Ye looked at Gu Yan. “Wifey, care to drink?”
It was New Year’s Eve yesterday, but he came back late. Gu Yan was not able to eat anything good, so today’s meal was to make up for it.
Gu Yan asked, “Do you have an ulterior motive by trying to get me to drink?”
“No! I have zero bad intentions!” Lu Ye spoke casually. “It’s New Year. I want us to be happy. Go ahead, drink a little.”
Because they weren’t married yet, he had to restrain himself from some things, although he didn’t want to miss out on anything minor.
In two more days, wifey will be deployed to the Logistics Department, after which, she will be preparing for her exam. The two might not see each other for quite some time again.
Lu Ye knew Gu Yan could drink, but he didn’t know how much she could handle.
He hoped her tolerance was moderate. It’s best if she’s tipsy.
In the end…
The two ate for a while. Gu Yan already had three cups, but her eyes were still bright. She asked, “From whom did you learn to prepare these dishes? It’s so tasty!”
“A soldier who worked at a restaurant prior to service. I loved his dishes, so I decided to learn from him. He’s from the south and came to the north, so he knows dishes from both sides. It’s perfect for my tastes.”
“He said that after I learn cooking, I can prepare something special for my wife. Today, my wish is fulfilled.”
Gu Yan didn’t expect Lu Ye to have such thoughts. He felt satisfied cooking for her.
Gu Yan suddenly felt that she was drunk, not from the alcohol, but from the emotions.
She didn’t want to wake up.
Just when Lu Ye was planning to scoop more rice for her, Gu Yan suddenly came over and kissed him.
