Chapter 96 I am a queen

Du Hongyuan woke up from a nap and smelled the fragrant smell. His gloom was swept away and he got out of bed and showed off with the three of them.

Wang Qi said proudly: "How about it? The dumplings made with the dough and stuffing I made myself taste better than those crappy things at school, right?"

Chen Zhirui nodded and praised: "It's delicious. This is the first time I've eaten this kind of pickled cabbage. It tastes quite special!"

Gong Yoo urged the three people: "Try the cabbage and pork flavor I made and see if it tastes good."

Wang Qi tasted one, gave it a thumbs up, and said, "Old Liu is a very talented cook!"

Chen Zhirui also nodded and said, "It's delicious, I love it!"

After eating a few, Du Hongyuan said, "I admit, it's really good, but compared to my cooking skills, it's still a little bit worse."

"Forget it." Wang Qi patted Du Hongyuan on the shoulder and said jokingly, "The 'craft' you mentioned, kid, is it not 'making wontons' on the bed?"

Du Hongyuan blushed and said, "Get lost! We are eating, and you are telling dirty jokes."

The four of them finished the work that Kong Liu and Wang Qi had done in the entire afternoon in just half an hour.

After eating, Kong Liu cooked the cabbage and pork dumplings that he had reserved for Gu Chenxi, and Wang Qi also cooked the sauerkraut and pork dumplings that he had reserved for his partner.

After cooking, the two exchanged a few different flavors.

After Gong Liu put the dumplings in the lunch box, he was about to send a message to Gu Chenxi when a voice call popped up on the other side.

Gu Chenxi on the other end of the phone asked directly: "Where are you now?"

Gong Yoo said, "I was in the dormitory, and was about to look for you when you called me."

"This shows that we are in tune with each other." Gu Chenxi said proudly, "Come to the playground."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

After Kong Liu hung up the phone, he quickly left the dormitory with the dumplings.

When she arrived at the playground, she saw Gu Chenxi sitting alone on the stands, waving at him.

Gong Yoo ran up to the stands holding the box of dumplings.

They both said almost at the same time: "Guess what I prepared for you!"

"uh-huh?"

"Aha?"

After hearing each other's words, both of them couldn't help but look at the bag held in the other's hand.

Gu Chenxi asked in surprise: "Did you make dumplings for me?"

Looking at her expression, Gong Liu seemed to have a premonition of something, and he asked back: "Could it be... that you also made dumplings for me?"

The two exchanged handbags, took out lunch boxes from each other's bags, looked at each other, and opened them at the same time.

Although the two had already guessed what the other had given them, they still laughed at the same time when they actually saw the dumplings in the box.

Gong Liu covered his face and thought to himself: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have eaten so many dumplings in the dormitory just now."

Gu Chenxi also sighed in his heart: "I spent the whole afternoon trying out the food and only managed to make one that tasted a little better. How can I eat it now?"

Gu Chenxi made dumplings with soup. With the help of her roommate and an afternoon of trying, this time it was finally not a failure. Although the dumplings looked ordinary and a lot of them were broken, they were much better than the chicken soup before - at least they were not poisonous.

There is no need to mention the dumplings made by Gong Yoo. With Wang Qi's help, the dumplings were made very well - if they were not delicious, the four men would not have shown off so much in the dormitory.

Gu Chenxi saw that Kong Liu was still not picking up his chopsticks, and thought that he was afraid to eat, so he said: "Don't think that these dumplings are cooked like dumpling soup, but in fact, only a few of them are broken, and there are quite a few intact ones in the soup. It tastes very good, really!"

"Uh, okay..."

Gong Liu is still full and can't eat anything else. He said to Gu Chenxi: "Try what I made first."

Gong Liu couldn't eat, and so could Gu Chenxi. She hesitated for a moment, closed the lid of the lunch box, and said, "I... I have a habit of running before eating!"

"What a coincidence, I have this habit too."

Gong Yoo also closed his lunch box and said, "Let's go, together!"

Holding lunch boxes in their hands, the two did not actually run on the playground - after all, the main purpose was to digest the food.

In order not to disturb the night runners, the two of them took a walk in the outermost circle of the playground.

While walking, Kong Liu asked Gu Chenxi: "Did you make these dumplings in the dormitory this afternoon?"

"Yeah." Gu Chenxi nodded and said, "Since today is the winter solstice, I wanted to give you a surprise. Who knew..."

Gong Yoo laughed and answered, "Who knew I also made dumplings?"

"Yes."

Gu Chenxi nodded and asked Gong Liu: "What kind of dumplings did you make?"

“Pork and cabbage.”

Gong Liu was too embarrassed to look at Gu Chenxi, so he looked up at the lamppost in the distance and said, "Xiao Xuan said...you like to eat cabbage and pork, so I made it, and put some pickled cabbage and pork in it, and some three fresh dishes."

Gu Chenxi lowered her head, looking at the plastic track under her feet, and said in a slightly shy voice: "In order to make dumplings for me, you went to ask my sister?"

"Uh...hehe..."

Gong Liu laughed twice, neither admitting nor denying.

Gu Chenxi continued: "Then guess what flavor the dumplings I made are?"

"Hmm..." Gong Liu thought for a moment and said, "Cabbage and pork."

Gu Chenxi widened his eyes, looked at Kong Liu, and exclaimed: "Hey! How did you know?"

Gong Yoo said: "Because we are in tune with each other!"

Weird.

Because when Kong Yoo just opened the lid, he saw the cabbage and minced meat floating in the dumpling soup, so he already knew the correct answer.

Of course, even if Kong Yoo didn’t open the lid, it wouldn’t be difficult to guess if you really wanted to.

Gu Chenxi never cooks, so when she makes dumplings for the first time, she will definitely choose the flavor she is most familiar with and make something she likes to eat, so that she at least knows better whether it tastes good or not.

Besides, she didn’t know how to do anything difficult. After the chicken soup incident, she didn’t dare to try it easily again - she didn’t want to be a widow at such a young age.

The two of them walked for a while, and after they both felt that they had digested a lot of food, they sat back down on the stands of the playground.

At Gu Chenxi's urging, Kong Liu opened her box of dumplings with soup first, picked out a whole one with a spoon, and put it into his mouth.

Perhaps because of the psychological trauma from the last time he ate the chicken soup, this time he ate it with his eyes closed and was very careful while eating.

The meat filling tasted a bit salty, and compared with the dumpling skins they made themselves, the semi-finished dumpling skins that Gu Chenxi bought tasted very ordinary.

The overall taste is average. It’s not very delicious, but it’s not bad either. However, this is Gu Chenxi’s second time cooking, and being able to make it like this is considered a rapid improvement.

Gu Chenxi asked hurriedly: "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Although she has already tasted it this time, she is still afraid that Gong Yoo will not like it.

Gong Liu didn't answer him, but scooped two more dumplings from the soup and stuffed them into his mouth, then smiled and gave a thumbs up - actions often speak louder than words.

Seeing Kong Liu eating so happily, Gu Chenxi breathed a sigh of relief and a happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Gong Liu said to Gu Chenxi: "You should try what I made."

Influenced by Wang Qi, the dumpling wrappers made by Kong Yoo are much bigger than the semi-finished products and are stuffed full of meat. One dumpling is equivalent to two ordinary dumplings and is both fragrant and delicious.

"How about it?"

Seeing Gu Chenxi eating several in a row, Kong Liu said with some pride: "I still have some strength, right?"

Gu Chenxi said proudly: "It's just so-so."

Gong Liu frowned and said, "Is this normal?"

Gu Chenxi swallowed the dumplings in his mouth, wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth, then leaned close to Gong Liu's ear and whispered, "Your dumplings are so well made, it makes me look stupid!"

Gong Yoo pinched the flesh on her cheeks and said, "Silly, how cute."

Gu Chenxi pouted and said, "No! I am a queen... um."

Before Gu Chenxi could finish her words, her mouth was blocked by Kong Liu's sudden kiss.

Gong Yoo later said: "I can't help it... it's just... it's too cute... I couldn't help it at the time... I will dare to do it next time"
