Li Zexin’s height was similar to Xiao Yi’s. No matter how much Xiao Yi tried, he couldn’t push him away.
In the end, he had to give up.
“The boundary is here. If you cross it, I’ll kick you out.” Xiao Yi placed a pillow between them.
Li Zexin nodded. “No problem.”
In Li Zexuan’s room, the two brothers talked with each other.
Li Zekai pouted. “Big brother, Brother Xinxin is now Uncle Xiao’s family, isn’t
“It’s possible.”
“He’s not close to us at all, but he’s very close to Brother Xiao. Why isn’t Brother Xiao annoyed by him?”
Li Zexuan thought for a moment. He seemed to sense that something was off, but he couldn’t explain it to his youngest brother. So, he came up with a reason. “Xiao Yi is Li Zexin’s mentor. Li Zexin likes playing games, and they share a common interest. When they’re with us, they only bicker.”
“Makes sense. It’s just like playing cards. I have to hang out with classmates who like playing cards.” Li Zekai instantly understood.
In Lin Wan’s room, Li Yanchen leaned against Lin Wan. He looked like a child craving affection.
From time to time, he reached out to touch Lin Wan’s face.
“I’ve never felt so at ease as I do now. The people I treasure are all here.”
Lin Wan placed her hand on her husband’s face. “We’ll always be here.”
On the seventh day in Yan City, the program group of “We Are Very Ordinary” sent a message for the final episode. The broadcast would start on the tenth. It was only five days away from the broadcast.
Fortunately, according to Lin Wan’s plan, she would return to Yun City in three days.
Xia MO, upon receiving the news, grabbed her phone and looked for Lin Wan.
“It’s the last episode, you know.” Xia MO got straight to the point.
“Yeah.”
“The nicest thing that happened in this show was getting to know you,” Xia MO said.
“Same.”
“Lin Wan, why are you giving a one-word reply?”
“One word is enough to sum it up. But truly, thanks to this show, I’ve gained such adorable family and friends.” Lin Wan elbowed Xia MO playfully. “Teacher
Xia, teach me how to cook. I don’t want the sixth season to end without me being able to make a decent meal.”
Xia MO rubbed her forehead. “Isn’t that quite challenging? Oh, I remembered a story. A newlywed wife, after more than forty days of marriage, cooked every day, but all her dishes turned out to be unexpected disasters.”
“Before, I couldn’t understand it. Maybe some people can’t cook at all. But your spirit and hers are very commendable.”
Lin Wan frowned. “How do you know that I won’t succeed at all?”
“Fine, I’ll teach you a few simple dishes. Here’s an idea. I’ll gather the commonly used seasonings together, so when you’re cooking, you just need to open the package and sprinkle them.”
“Teacher Xia, you are indeed smart.”
With this little trick, it felt like Lin Wan could finally make a meal. Maybe everyone would praise her.
In the last three days, they visited the top-ranked attractions in Yan City.
On the morning of the 7th, the ten people took an early flight to Yun City.
Yun City was very cold in the first month. The extreme temperature was too difficult to get used to.
In the afternoon, they turned on the heating to warm up at home.
Both Auntie Huang and Auntie Bao wanted to go grocery shopping, but considering the cold, Lin Wan just ordered groceries online.
She chose a few dishes that Xia MO had taught her. She wanted to showcase her cooking skills in the evening.
Everyone had witnessed how seriously Lin Wan had been trying to learn to cook in Yan City, and they didn’t want to dampen her enthusiasm. So, they were all looking forward to dinner that evening.
In the evening, Li Zexuan leaned against the kitchen door. “Ms. Lin, if you can really cook a few dishes today and reveal them during the final live broadcast, it’ll surely become popular.”
“I also feel that Ms. Lin brings something new every episode. She is a reliable source for attention,” Li Zexin chimed in.
Li Yanchen lacked confidence in Lin Wan’s skills. He sat at the dining table and occasionally glanced toward the kitchen. He hoped that Lin Wan wouldn’t accidentally knock over the bowls.
Auntie Huang and Auntie Bao constantly guided her, but Lin Wan insisted on completing the dishes independently. As a result, the two stood silently in a corner.
Lin Wan worked methodically. She washed and chopped ingredients for the four dishes.
Then came the step she dreaded: lighting the stove and pouring oil.
She covered the pot with a lid, but this time the oil didn’t splatter. When she heard sizzling, Lin Wan put the vegetables into the pan. Following Xia Mol s advice, she didn’t add water to the vegetables and adjusted the heat to a low flame for the vegetables to cook.
She stir-fried the peas and then lowered the heat. She waited until they shriveled a bit. In the meantime, she opened the pre-packaged seasoning provided by Xia Mo. After turning over the vegetables again, she poured in the seasoning.
Judging by the process, it should be a success. Auntie Bao and Auntie Huang finally walked out of the kitchen in relief.
Li Yanchen asked, “How is it?”
Aunt Huang smiled. “Everything went smoothly. I think it’ll be delicious this time.”
Li Yanchen stepped into the kitchen. When he opened the sliding door, he caught a faint whiff of garlic. “I was here to see if you had burned down the kitchen. I was going to take the spatula from your hands. But Auntie Huang said it was a success. Good job, honey!”
Lin Wan held her head high. “Of course, practice makes perfect. People persist after failing more than forty times. If you hadn’t stopped me from entering the kitchen, I would’ve learned a long time ago.”
“Are you saying that we’ve taken away your chance to experiment on things?” “That’s part of the reason. Now, get out. Don’t distract me. Just wait for dinner.”
Li Yanchen returned to the living room. He saw Li Zexuan leaning by the door.
“Li Zexuan, are you a guard? Why are you here for so long?”
Li Zexuan shrugged. “I was afraid the kitchen would explode. I’m here to watch. If something happens, I can run in and put out the fire. But it seems Ms. Lin is doing well today.”
“Don’t block the way.” Li Yanchen pulled his son away.
In the living room, six mouths were left agape in anticipation.
Lin Wan juggled between two dishes and found it hard to balance. However, she finally finished. After two hours, four dishes were ready to be served.
Although they knew that these few dishes might not be enough, Lin Wan had successfully made four dishes for the first time, which was already quite an achievement.
There were stir-fried peas, minced meat eggplant, sautéed pork, and tofu soup.
After the dishes were served, everyone noticed that Lin Wan had even placed some flowers to decorate the table. However, no one moved to take the chopsticks.
Li Yanchen decided to be the first to try the dishes.
He sipped a spoonful of soup. “This is pretty good! Let’s dive in!” Other people hesitated as they picked up their chopsticks, but Li Yanchen hadn’t deceived them. Lin Wan had succeeded..
