Chu Ya looked at the picture and thought of Ms. Wu.

Seeing that everyone else had gone home, she seemed to miss home too. Ms. Wu was best at cooking fish. She and Qiqi both liked the spicy wine lees fish and braised fish fillets she made.

Are you homesick or are you missing those familiar flavors?

Maybe she could make the same home-cooked meals herself, so that she wouldn’t miss home so much when eating the dishes she made.

Chu Ya thought about it and felt more and more that it was feasible.

Anyway, the cafeteria is closed now and she doesn't want to eat takeout, so she might as well cook her own food.

I started to get excited thinking about what to cook. It seems that fermented fish with lees is a little difficult to cook, so how about making braised fish cubes.

She was motivated and sent a message to Gu Shi, asking him not to order takeout and to wait for her to come back and cook.

I stood up with my bag on my back, navigated to the nearest farmer's market, bought some common sauces, and bought a fish to carry back home.

When she was carrying the fish, she felt it moving. She didn't dare to look at the fish and just carried it home.

As soon as I got home, I threw the fish into the kitchen sink and felt relieved when my hands were free.

Gu Shi had already returned home. He walked out of the study, folded his arms and smiled at Chu Ya: "Yaya, are you going to cook today? I didn't know you could cook."

She had made crab rice once before, but that was the simplest dish. Today she was going to cook fish seriously.

Chu Ya knew that Gu Shi had rarely cooked.

In fact, she had never cooked independently, but she had helped Ms. Wu and knew what to do. She thought that compared to Gu Shi, who knew nothing about cooking, she was already a capable cook.

Chu Ya smiled somewhat smugly and said, "Of course I can make it, just wait and eat it."

Gu Shi felt very curious and followed her into the kitchen: "I'll help you."

Chuya felt a little guilty. She said she could cook and Ms. Wu had taught her how to cook, but she had long forgotten how to braise fish fillets and had to look up the tutorial on her mobile phone.

If Gu Shi stared at her, she would be exposed.

Chu Ya pushed her out of the kitchen with a guilty conscience: "You do your thing, leave this to me, just wait for the food."

Seeing that she was confident, Gu Shi was also very happy: "Okay, call me if you need any help."

Chu Ya nodded and waited until Gu Shi returned to the study before taking out her cell phone to look for the tutorial. Sure enough, the first step was to chop the fish.

This fish had been gutted at the market, but I don't know why it is still alive.

She gritted her teeth and placed the fish on the chopping board, praying in her heart that it would not move.

She held the kitchen knife and chopped at it with her eyes closed. Perhaps she was not strong enough and halfway through, the fish felt pain and struggled even more violently, falling off the chopping board and thrashing on the ground.

...almost jumping onto her.

Chu Ya threw the kitchen knife aside, backed away to the edge of the kitchen, and screamed in despair.

Gu Shi walked over quickly from the study: "Yaya, what's wrong?"

He opened the kitchen door, and Chu Ya threw herself into his arms, trembling: "I feel like this fish is looking at me, its eyes are looking at me, it looks like a snake, black and scary."

Gu Shi took a look. He often went fishing and recognized at a glance that what Chu Ya bought was black carp. This kind of fish has strong vitality and ferocious temperament. Now that it was chopped by Chu Ya, it struggled even more violently on the floor.

Gu Shi didn't laugh at her, he just patted her shoulder and said, "You want to chop it into fish pieces, right? I'll do it."

Chu Ya was so scared that she did not refuse. She walked outside the kitchen and closed the frosted door to prevent the black fish from jumping out. She just opened a crack and looked at Gu Shi.

She watched Gu Shi catch the black fish. The fish was still struggling violently. Gu Shi rinsed the fish in the sink, put it on the chopping board, picked up the kitchen knife, and started cutting the fish with great efficiency.

Because he was there, she was no longer so scared.

Looking at his tall figure, I suddenly felt that he was handsome in a way that made my heart beat faster.

It is a handsomeness that makes people feel reliable and at ease.

Gu Shi chopped it five times in total. He moved aside, revealing the black fish cut into six pieces on the chopping board. The big fish that was still alive and kicking just now was now dying.

Chu Ya was stunned for a moment. Is this the end?

I thought Gu Shi would have to struggle with the black fish for a while, but it was resolved so quickly.

While she was stunned, Gu Shi had already torn off some kitchen paper and wiped off the slime left on the floor by the black fish's struggle.

Chu Ya realized it belatedly and felt a little embarrassed. She said that she could cook, but she showed her weakness in the first step and still asked him for help.

She pushed open the kitchen door and said shyly, "You go ahead and do your work. Let me do it from now on. I just didn't dare to start."

Gu Shi understood her very well. When he saw a drop of blood splashed on Chu Ya's face, he wanted to help her wipe it off, but then he remembered that his hands smelled of fish, so he wiped it off for her with the back of his hand.

"Yaya is great. You are very brave to buy such a ferocious fish. I am a little scared when I see it."

Chu Ya burst out laughing. She just bought a random fish, but Gu Shi could find reasons to praise her. So he thought of ways to praise her.

Gu Shi touched her face and saw that she was no longer afraid, so he went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

Chu Ya watched the fish turn into motionless pieces of fish. She was no longer afraid. She put the fish in the sink and began to wash the mucus off the fish.

After washing, put the fish pieces aside, the next step is to fry the fish pieces.

She poured the oil into the non-stick pan and turned on the gas stove. After the oil had burned for a while, she remembered to turn on the range hood.

The oil was already smoking, so the temperature was probably enough. Chu Ya threw a piece of fish into the pan to see if it could be fried.

As a result, she threw the fish pieces directly into the pot. Before the water from the fish pieces was wiped off, the extremely hot oil immediately splashed out of the pot, and two or three drops of oil splashed onto her hand holding the spatula.

Chu Ya felt the oil was too hot and her fingers were almost burned. She couldn't help but scream in pain.

Gu Shi rushed to the kitchen. His first reaction was to turn off the gas stove. Seeing Chu Ya washing her hand under cold water, Gu Shi also held her wrist and observed it carefully, his face full of nervousness: "Did you get burned?"

If Gu Shi was not here, Chu Ya would just rinse her hands with cold water and continue cooking.

But Gu Shi was right beside her, and she wanted him to care about her and coax her, so she could magnify even the smallest things to infinity.

Chu Ya looked at him pitifully and was about to cry the next second: "It hurts..."

Gu Shi held her hand, his eyes full of heartache, not knowing what to do anymore: "Then I'll go find you some ointment for the burn and apply it on you."

This seemed like an exaggeration. Chu Ya looked at her hands and found that they were just a little red, not even burned.

Chu Ya shook her head embarrassedly: "It's okay, no need."
