Chapter 23 Cooking and dinner, the doubts of the straight man

Li Cheng picked up John and put him on his neck. Then Li Cheng quickly ran around in the yard, causing John to scream for a while.

"Slow down! Don't drop the child."

Hearing the noise, the old godfather hurriedly ran out and stretched out his hand to lift John down. John was his heart and soul, so he couldn't touch him.

Li Cheng couldn't defeat Old Mike, so he had to let John go. John was still unsatisfied, and obviously he didn't have enough fun, but he listened to the old godfather the most, and he was very sensible and stopped playing around.

"Li?! What are you doing?"

Old Mike, who had just paid attention to John, took a closer look at Li Cheng, and suddenly found that his temperament had changed a lot, and his skin had become fairer, which was completely different from before.

"It's nothing, it's just maintenance done with some special means."

Li Cheng scratched his head and made up an excuse to excuse himself.

When Old Mike heard this, he nodded gently and stopped asking. Everyone has their own secret. Seeing that Li Cheng was unwilling to say more, he did not continue to delve deeper.

"Since you're back, you can cook dinner today." Old Mike waved his hand and ordered naturally. It's rare that everyone is here, and the whole family can get together to have a meal tonight.

Li Cheng nodded lightly and agreed, then picked up John and walked into the house, but almost bumped into Ajie who came out after hearing the sound.

"Wtf are you Li Cheng?!"

Ajie looked at Li Cheng with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief, as if Li Cheng had changed after not seeing him for a day.

"Are you going for plastic surgery? I saw you yesterday."

Ajie's speech was a little confused, and he was pushed away by Li Cheng before he finished speaking.

"Okay, okay, why are you blocking the door and making such a fuss? I went to take care of my skin, but I won't give it to you!"

"Who can take care of things so well and not get rich? Li, I want one too!"

Ajie hurriedly chased in, took John from Li Cheng's hand with a diligent look, and then stared at Li Cheng with a smile.

"I always thought that I was the face of Ronghua Street, but now you make me feel challenged like this!" Ajie looked so sad and angry that he almost hugged Li Cheng's thigh.

Li Cheng directly gave Ajie a roll of his eyes, and then walked towards the kitchen: "Pull him down, you are hopeless like this, and you still have a good appearance. You have insulted most of the creatures in Ronghua Street. The pugs raised by Scar are worse than You are pleasing to the eye"

"Slander, you are completely slandering!"

"Okay, okay, this thing is not easy to fix now. I will let you experience it in the future. Let's stop talking about it. I'm going to cook."

Li Cheng interrupted Ajie's angry speech, and then asked doubtfully: "Where's Betty? Didn't she run out again? John just came back, so don't let her go."

"How could it be? The little smarties are back, how could I not come to accompany them?" Betty walked out of her bedroom with a smile on her face, holding a huge little raccoon doll in her hand.

"Aunt Betty!" John's face glowed red, and he quickly rushed towards Betty and the doll next to him.

"Hmph, you brat, call me sister!"

Betty hugged John who was about to fly up and fiercely pulled his face into grotesque shapes.

"Ugh, sister Betty, I was wrong." John apologized decisively, trying to get away with being cute, but it did not move Betty's ruthless hands at all.

Li Cheng looked at the scene in front of him with a smile, silently in front of a qualified melon-eating crowd. It was not until Betty ravaged John that his hands and feet were weak that he asked:

"Have you thought about what you want to eat?"

John jumped up directly, sweeping away his weakness just now, as if he came to life again: "Strawberry egg tart!"

"Okay, little one, get ready!" Li Cheng imitated the waiter's posture, causing John to giggle like a chicken.

"Li, I'm really curious about where you bought your ingredients. There are no strawberries sold nearby." Betty tilted her head, with a trace of scrutiny in her eyes.

"Don't worry about these details. Just tell me what you want to eat. I'm going to cook."

"Okay." Betty smiled and looked at Li Cheng with a hint of slyness in her eyes: "Li, whatever dish you are best at, I want to eat."

"But I'm good at all kinds of dishes." Li Cheng looked proud.

"Then I want to eat everything."

"How can I cook it at such a late hour?" A few black lines appeared on Li Cheng's head: "Even if I could cook it, you wouldn't be able to finish it."

"That's fine"

"What about Ajie?" Li Cheng turned to look at Ajie.

"It's okay with me." Ajie waved his hand gently.

""

Li Cheng had no choice but to walk to the kitchen and choose two dishes at random. There was no point in asking these questions. As for the old godfather, there was no need to ask. He must have boiled pork slices. Old Mike loved this dish.

Looking at the sky, it was getting late, and Li Cheng didn't have the patience to make other time-consuming dishes. He made a boiled meat slice and a few strawberry egg tarts and stopped.

These two dishes can be prepared quickly using the ingredients settled in the system warehouse. As for the others, Li Cheng directly took out a few finished dishes settled in the system warehouse.

These dishes were made with great effort by the otaku chef from Yuanyue Academy. The taste is much better than what Li Cheng would make casually. There is not much inventory in the system warehouse now.

The otaku chef from the Yuanyue Academy plane is also quite capable. He has not been fired for so long. He is always above the passing line and his performance is getting better and better. Of course, this is also related to his hard work.

Therefore, although Li Cheng will not be provided with any high-value and high-power equipment and props every month, various cherished ingredients, delicious food recipes and cooking experience have also improved the living standards of Li Cheng's family. A significant improvement.

Betty rarely even went out. Unless she received a call, she stayed at home almost every day, helping Li Cheng with Yongan Technology's documents.

After a short while of busy work, several dishes were placed directly on the kitchen counter, and several sumptuous dishes filled up the large round table.

Betty sneaked into the kitchen and gently opened a few plates covered with food. All kinds of aromas had already filled the entire kitchen. The aroma of uncovering the plates was even more fragrant. She took a deep breath of the aroma, and Betty had a look on her face. of satisfaction.

"How did you make these things in such a short time? Is a dinner so rich?"

"Is it very rich?" Li Cheng was stunned for a moment: "It's very simple."

"I haven't seen you do it to me every day." Betty pouted her lips gently.

"I do it often, not to mention that Little John is back, so I have to do more." Li Cheng looked confused: "What's going on? Why are you a little unhappy?"

"I'm not unhappy!" Betty curled her lips and tried to walk out.

"Wait~" Li Cheng quickly stopped her.

"What's the matter?" Betty turned around, her pretty face was slightly red, and she gently raised her chin: "What do you want to say?"

"Take this pot of boiled fish out first."

"Humph!" Betty grabbed the pot of boiled fish and walked out angrily.

What exactly happened here? Li Cheng looked confused.
