The next day, He Jing brought the food she had made to school.
Yan Hanxi had not arrived yet, but Wu Yu was early, so he was around to greet her when she arrived.
He stared curiously at He Jing’s pink lunch box and asked surprisedly, “Sister
Jing, did you bring lunch today? Who made it?”
“I made it myself,” He Jing said, taking her seat.
As if he had seen a ghost, Wu Yu opened his mouth, mumbling in disbelief,
“Sister Jing, when did you learn how to cook?”
Wu Yu’s shocked expression immediately attracted the attention of the rest of the class.
“Sister Jing, I didn’t know you could cook.” Shen Qiuyu was startled by this revelation.
“Is cooking really that difficult?” He Jing laughed.
Shen Qiuyu nodded and said, “Yin High School used to offer cooking classes. However, as no one could cook, and everything the students prepared caused the cooking teacher to become sick, the school had no choice but to stop offering the elective. It was so bad that Yin High School lost all its cooking teachers!”
He Jing was speechless.
Who could have known Yin High School would bear such a past?
What kind of magical place was Yin High School supposed to be?
Wu Yu had never seen He Jing cook before. In a previous cooking class, He Jing had instructed them on how to cook and prepare ingredients, tasking them to work in small groups of no more than three. He Jing bringing food with her today was nothing short of a miracle! “Sister Jing, may I open the lunchbox and see what’s inside?
He Jing frowned.
Wu Yu was the only one intrigued; Shen Qiuyu and the rest of the class were also interested in its contents.
A sea of curious eyes shined with barely restrained curiosity. That is until a certain young man with an exceptionally noble bearing entered the class and made his presence known. That young man strolled into class, a mix of confidence and feline grace in his lazy gait.
He Jing stuffed the lunch box into the young man’s hand. “Here, this is for you.” Instantly, everyone’s eyes shifted from He Jing to Yan Hanxi.
Yan Hanxi looked at the cheap plastic lunchbox in his hand, which had a cute
Hello Kitty on it, and said, “Did you make it?”
“Of course I did; I never go back on my word,” He Jing replied.
Yan Hanxi opened the lunchbox and saw that the first layer was the overly beautiful French vegetable jelly, its colors scintillating in the light of the crowd’s shocked gazes.
He Jing’s cooking skills could not have been too bad since she dared to cook for him. However, she had far exceeded his expectations. This was not just good. It was amazing!
As the heir of the Yan family, he had eaten countless delicacies. Naturally, he could tell the value of this French jelly at a glance. Based on its alluring appearance, it would cost at least 80,000 yuan at a high-class hotel.
Sitting in her seat, Cheng Yi observed the commotion from afar, her mocking expression freezing on her face.
How could this be?
The Cheng family clearly said He Jing did not know how to cook!
The only time He Jing had cooked was when she cooked noodles for Cheng Yue.
The noodles were overcooked and tasted like He Jing had dropped a jar of salt in it. Cheng Yue only took a bite before asking someone to throw the rest out without He Jing knowing.
How could He Jing make such a fancy French jelly?!
The others were also stunned. This French jelly looked mouth-watering. It was wrapped in a five-colored hue and wobbled cheerfully when poked.
Unconsciously, they gulped. Wu Yu, who was the closest to them, gulped the loudest. Yan Hanxi glanced at him and asked, “Want some?”
Wu Yu nodded but then quickly shook his head.
Yan Hanxi smirked arrogantly.
Even if he wanted some, he could not have any!
Wu Yu eyed He Jing with dewy eyes.
He Jing was speechless.
A discordant note cleaved the jealous air in two. It came from Cheng Yi’s new sister, Zhou Xue’er. “He Jing can’t cook at all.. Brother Xi, don’t be fooled by her!”
