044
It turns out that I have a talent for baking cakes.
On Friday, Li Chen was waiting downstairs of my house at four in the afternoon.
This bastard, I've never seen him so active before...
"Did you bring the cake?" Seeing me coming downstairs, Li Chen came over and opened the car door for me.
"Don't worry... I've got it..." I fastened my seat belt and gave Li Chen a sinister look, "Don't forget what you promised me... We'll split the bet 50-50..."
"Look at your money-obsessed look, I really don't know why Zhuo Yang married you in the first place... Forget it... If you really win... Everything will be yours..."
"Hmph..." I turned my head away. It was obvious that my marriage with Zhuo Yang was something I didn't want to talk about. I stopped talking.
When we were almost at the center of the club, I asked Li Chen to stop the car.
"You go first... I'm going to buy something..."
Li Chen was a little impatient, but he still stopped the car, "Is there anything you need to buy now?"
I rolled my eyes and looked at him with disgust.
"Candles... You're so stupid! You have to blow out candles on your birthday... I think you're thirty this year... You'll need a lot of candles... Forget it, just buy three as a token of your appreciation..."
I muttered to myself for a long time and then looked back at Li Chen.
For some reason, his face turned red, and his usually hateful peach blossom eyes were also confused.
"Hey... did you smoke?"
My unfriendly tone made Li Chen come back to his senses and he turned his head away awkwardly.
"Then I'll go first." He looked a little reluctant to leave.
But I didn’t care about that. I bought three candles at the cake shop and then took my handmade chocolate ice cream cake to Li Chen’s birthday party.
When I arrived, Li Chen and his group of friends were already sitting on the sofa chatting and gossiping in a very ecstatic posture.
When they saw me coming, all the men and women present were stunned.
I smiled kindly and said to them, "Hello."
I have met most of these people. Most of Li Chen’s friends are also Zhuo Yang’s friends. Although I don’t often attend their gatherings, I still recognize most of their faces.
Like Li Chen, they didn't like me very much in the past.
Of course, it is probably the same now.
Li Chen's eyes lit up when he saw me. This bastard has good acting skills. We had agreed to come over, but he acted surprised.
I have to say, acting skills are very important in this industry.
"An Yue, you are here... Come and sit..."
Li Chen pulled me to his side. I turned around but didn't see Zhuo Yang. I was a little disappointed.
Did I come here for nothing today
As if knowing what I was thinking, Li Chen leaned close to my ear and whispered something.
"Don't worry... Zhuo Yang will be back... soon... I think he will be here soon..."
Li Chen had obviously drunk some wine, and there was a faint smell of alcohol in his breath.
I have never liked this man, or anything about him.
I put the cake down and hid to the side. Seeing this, Li Chen raised his eyebrows and looked a little strange.
I think that although I am not likable, now that I am divorced, I don’t have much impression of this group of people, so I shouldn’t offend too many people.
But just when I was interacting with Li Chen, a little girl from somewhere said coldly: "Mr. Chen, the beauty next to you looks familiar..."
Before Li Chen could say anything, the girl spoke sharply, pretending to have suddenly realized something, "Oh... I remember... Isn't she the second-hand girl you mentioned before?"
After the girl finished speaking, there was laughter around her.
I'm actually fine. Influenced by Li Chen, the venomous man, I've become immune to all poisons, especially since these people are no different from excrement in my eyes.
Unless one is mentally retarded or mentally ill, who would care about a few pieces of feces
I took a sip of wine, smiled, and said calmly: "Yes, I am the second-hand goods in the legend... But it is better than some people who have never been married but are already n-hand goods..."
I am not sure of the girl's identity, but I think that since she was dressed provocatively in a semi-public place, and she was lying in a man's arms as if her bones were not hard yet, with her other hand on another man's thigh, this girl probably would not be a decent woman.
She didn't expect that I would talk back. The girl flew into a rage. She propped up half of her body and was about to talk back when Li Chen's cold voice sounded behind me.
"An Yue is the friend I invited here today... It's my decision... What's wrong? Do you have any questions?"
Perhaps because they had never seen Li Chen get angry before, the laughter around them stopped, and even the girl looked at Li Chen with fear on her face.
I felt relaxed and a little stiff with anger.
Someone said, "Today is Mr. Chen's birthday. Let's wish him a happy birthday."
I took out the cake and lit the candles.
At this moment, no matter what grudges Li Chen and I have, today is his big day after all. Although I won’t say a blessing to him, I won’t say anything excessive either.
But Zhuo Yang hasn't come yet, which makes me a little disappointed.
So when I took out the cake, I pretended to say to Li Chen, "Happy birthday."
Li Chen was a little abnormal today. It was as if he saw me for the first time and his eyes were full of confusion.
I think men probably have these days every month, and I don’t mind.
Just when the candles were blown out and the lights in the room came on, someone screamed at the cake.
"Ah... chocolate..."
"What's wrong... The chocolate is good... Although it's chocolate on top, I also added ice cream... There's also chocolate on the bottom..."
I think my cakes look good and taste good. Of course, they are not as good as those of the chefs, but they are not enough to make everyone look weird.
"Chocolate... I like it..." After a long time, Li Chen came over and spoke with a smile, and at the same time cut off a big piece and put it in his mouth.
“Mmm… it tastes really good.”
Starting with Li Chen, more and more people came to take away cakes. Although I don’t know whether they were sincere or not, everyone spoke highly of my cake.
Of course I was happy, but the cake was almost divided and Zhuoyang hadn't come over yet.
I guess I was deceived by Li Chen, or these people cheated together...
But it doesn’t matter, it’s just an experience in life.
I whispered to Li Chen that I wanted to go back. Li Chen was slightly stunned and said, "Zhuo Yang hasn't come yet..."
"I don't think I'll come... Um... Happy Birthday... I'm leaving..."
"Don't..." Li Chen wanted to keep me, but at this moment someone in the crowd exclaimed.
"Zhuo Yang, you're here?"
oh-
My long-awaited ex-husband Zhuoyang finally came.
Zhuo Yang had obviously seen me. I don’t know why, but I felt that his already cold face became even colder when he looked at me.
Li Chen was very happy and reached out to Zhuo Yang directly.
"How about it... Brother Zhuo, you lost... When will you give me the money?"
Zhuo Yang looked unhappy, and he didn't even look at Li Chen. He just strode towards me, grabbed me while I was still eating cake, and walked out the door.
"What are you doing!" I was dragged by Zhuo Yang and stumbled several times.
Zhuo Yang ignored my protest and just pulled me towards the door.
We walked through the corridor, passed the lobby, and finally arrived at the elevator. Zhuo Yang threw me into the elevator.
Hello-
The elevator is made of iron, but I am made of human flesh.
I wasn't wearing too few clothes, but Zhuo Yang's strength still made my internal organs hurt.
"You're crazy!" I couldn't help but curse.
Zhuo Yang didn't say a word after he entered the elevator. It was only when I cursed him that he suddenly exploded.
A slap hit me on the top of my head.
"Is there something wrong with your IQ?"
“…” Shit! You brought me out here so brutally just to insult my character
I sneered and crawled out from under Zhuoyang's arm.
"none of your business."
Zhuo Yang turned me around and continued to throw me against the elevator wall, "Are you crazy... Why are you hanging out with Li Chen... Do you know that he made a bet on you?"
oh…
So that's what happened.
I nodded in understanding.
But... as the victim of this incident, I am not angry at all, so why should he be angry as the leader
I rolled my eyes and reminded someone coldly.
"Bet? Wasn't this what you loved doing the most in the past?"
I remember that my tears had run dry before.
I have never been a woman who is good at cooking. But I believe that only by winning a man's stomach can you win his heart.
So I persevered in the kitchen countless times.
The first time I made taro duck was on Zhuoyang’s birthday.
He didn't call back, so I stalked him.
I thought I could give him a surprise.
It turned out to be a surprise.
When Zhuo Yang saw me appear with the plate of taro duck, his face turned extremely dark and his eyes looking at me were extremely cold.
I suppressed my fear and begged him to eat just one bite...
But... what is the ending
Make a bet with a group of friends on whether Zhuoyang will eat or not...
They all thought that Zhuo Yang would eat a bite, after all, his wife came after him and brought him a loving meal.
but-
In the end, Zhuo Yang won.
He knocked over the taro duck that I had made after looking through countless recipes and experimenting countless times.
The past is hard to recall. Thinking about it now, I still feel a little sad for some reason.
Fortunately, it didn't hurt too much. Fortunately, everything slowly passed.
I slipped out from Zhuo Yang's arms again.
"Um... It's okay, I'll go back first..."
However, this time, before I could finish my words, Zhuo Yang's eyes flashed, and he pulled me back fiercely. When I was against the wall of the elevator, his hot lips and tongue swept down.
