Jiang Yuzhu entered the kitchen with a clear menu in mind. She planned to cook some of Pei Jingchuan's favorite dishes by herself and wanted to surprise him.

She began to skillfully take out the required ingredients from the refrigerator and storage cabinets: fresh vegetables, tender meat, and various seasonings. Her movements are methodical and reveal her cooking confidence.

While she was busy, the servant at home walked into the kitchen and saw Jiang Yuzhu preparing dinner. He smiled and said, "Miss, let me help you. You are usually so busy at work, so you don't have to cook by yourself."

Jiang Yuzhu turned around, smiled and shook his head: "Thank you Aunt Li, but I want to do it myself today. This is a little surprise for Jingchuan, and I want him to feel my heart."

The servant understood Jiang Yuzhu's intention and said with a smile: "Then I won't disturb you. If you need help, call me anytime."

Jiang Yuzhu nodded, smiled gratefully, and then continued to devote himself to cooking.

She first processed the shrimp meat and cut it into appropriate sizes, then prepared a bowl of sauce, adding her own spices to ensure that the meat tasted delicious and unique.

Then she began to wash the vegetables and cut them into beautiful shapes. She planned to make a stir-fried vegetable dish that would retain the original flavor of the vegetables and bring out the mellow aroma of the meat.

As the food is stir-fried in the pot, the tempting aroma fills the kitchen.

At this time, Pei Jingchuan in the study ended his conference call. His brows relaxed slightly and he felt a little relaxed.

He walked out of the study, looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and found that it was getting late.

He guessed that Jiang Yuzhu should have gone home from get off work.

Pei Jingchuan walked slowly along the corridor towards the living room. His steps were elegant and steady, with a warm feeling of home.

On the way, he saw the servant at home tidying up the living room, and asked softly: "Auntie, is Yuzhu back?"

The servant raised his head with a friendly smile on his face: "Master, the lady is back. She is busy in the kitchen. Today she will cook for you personally."

Upon hearing the news, Pei Jingchuan's eyes flashed with surprise and tenderness, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

He knew that Jiang Yuzhu didn't cook often, so this was undoubtedly a special surprise for him.

"Thank you, auntie, I'll go take a look." After he said politely to the servant, he walked towards the kitchen.

Pei Jingchuan walked gently to the kitchen door and found that the door had been closed.

He stopped and heard a faint sound from the kitchen. Although the sound was small, it was full of the breath of life.

Pei Jingchuan frowned slightly, filled with curiosity.

He was not in a hurry to open the door, but stood patiently outside the door and listened quietly to what was going on inside.

There was the sound of spatulas turning food, the sound of water running and slight collisions coming from the kitchen.

Accompanying these sounds, there is also Jiang Yuzhu's brisk humming, which sounds relaxed and happy.

Pei Jingchuan stood outside the kitchen door with a faint smile on his lips, and his heart was full of anticipation for the surprise that was about to be revealed.

He knew that Jiang Yuzhu didn't cook often, so this gesture was undoubtedly a special kind of care for him.

Jiang Yuzhu was busy in the kitchen, filled with anticipation for the dinner that was about to be completed.

Her technique is skillful and every step seems so natural. The kitchen was filled with a pleasant atmosphere, and her mood also brightened.

Finally, she completed two special dishes: one was the braised fish that Pei Jingchuan particularly liked, and the other was his favorite steamed shrimp with garlic paste.

The braised fish is full of aroma and the fish meat is delicious and juicy; the garlic steamed shrimp is full of garlic aroma and the shrimp meat is tender and delicious.

Jiang Yuzhu carefully placed the two dishes on the exquisite dinner plate, with a smile of accomplishment flashing on her face.

She knew that these two dishes were Pei Jingchuan's favorites, and she believed he would like them.

She wiped her hands, straightened her hair and clothes, then walked out of the kitchen quietly and walked to the dining room with the meal.

Jiang Yuzhu carefully plated the two carefully prepared dishes. The bright red color of the braised fish and the golden color of the garlic steamed shrimp formed an attractive color picture.

Her heart was filled with anticipation, imagining Pei Jingchuan's expression when he tasted these dishes.

Carrying the food, Jiang Yuzhu walked out of the kitchen lightly and walked towards the restaurant.

Pushing open the door of the restaurant, she saw Pei Jingchuan sitting at the dining table, watching today's news intently.

Pei Jingchuan's eyes were focused, and his posture was elegant and relaxed, as if he was enjoying the tranquility of this moment.

He didn't notice Jiang Yuzhu's arrival and was still immersed in the content of the news.

Jiang Yuzhu gently placed the food on the dining table, but seeing that Pei Jingchuan was still focused on the news, she couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied.

She worked hard to prepare dinner, looking forward to Pei Jingchuan's surprise and praise, but found that he didn't even notice her efforts.

Her brows frowned slightly, and the smile on her lips was a little forced. She stood at the dining table, quietly observing Pei Jingchuan, waiting for his reaction.

A few seconds passed, and Pei Jingchuan seemed to be still attracted by the news on the TV screen, unaware of Jiang Yuzhu's arrival.

Jiang Yuzhu felt a little disappointed and felt a sense of grievance in his heart. She coughed softly, trying to attract Pei Jingchuan's attention.

Pei Jingchuan came back to his senses and noticed Jiang Yuzhu standing at the dining table with a somewhat unhappy expression on his face.

He immediately realized his oversight and quickly stood up with an apologetic look on his face.

"Yuzhu, I'm sorry, I didn't notice you coming in. Did you do all this?" Pei Jingchuan approached Jiang Yuzhu, trying to make up for his mistake.

Although Jiang Yuzhu was still a little unhappy, seeing Pei Jingchuan's apology, the suffocation in his heart eased a little. "Yes, I specially prepared your favorite dish today."

Pei Jingchuan saw traces of displeasure still remaining on Jiang Yuzhu's face. Suddenly, he stepped forward and picked up Jiang Yuzhu lightly.

Jiang Yuzhu was startled. Her feet happened to be standing on the edge of a small step in the restaurant. She had not expected this sudden move.

"Jingchuan, what are you doing? Put me down quickly!" Jiang Yuzhu's voice contained slight blame, but there was a sweetness in her heart.

Pei Jingchuan had a gentle smile on his face, and his eyes were full of love: "I'm sorry, I really appreciate you preparing dinner for me."

Feeling the warmth in Pei Jingchuan's arms, Jiang Yuzhu gradually relaxed. Her arms unconsciously wrapped around Pei Jingchuan's neck and moved closer.
