Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 579: Chapter 592: Suicidal Tendencies

Lin Junyang really wanted to wait outside; he was completely clueless about the kitchen.

But the Boss had given orders. If he didn’t help, what if the Boss came out later and cut him some slack?

Looking at the small pot stewing next to Xiao Xiao, Lin Junyang rolled up his sleeves and opened the lid, ”Let me help you. Can you manage two stoves by yourself?”

While saying this, he picked up the ladle beside him and began to stir the pot, imitating Xiao Xiao’s movements.

The pot contained meat, bright red in color and fragrant. Lin Junyang couldn’t resist swallowing hard.

To be honest, this woman’s cooking skills seemed to be pretty good.

Xiao Xiao was stirring her dish while sneaking careful glances at Lin Junyang.

Just now outside, she only caught a glimpse of him. Today, the man wasn’t wearing his military uniform. His casual clothes made him appear even more laid-back and easygoing. Standing beside her now, with his sleeves rolled up, Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but blush even more.

When she took another look at his movements, Xiao Xiao felt a wave of distress.

”Brother Yang, leave that to me. Don’t stir it anymore; it’ll turn into meat paste. And no, cilantro still can’t be added now. It needs to be added after the dish is taken off the stove; the heat can’t be turned up, it needs to slowly simmer on low heat...”

Lin Junyang refused to back down.

”Hey, I’m trying to help here. You say this can’t be moved, that can’t be touched. I’m trying to be kind by helping you, and now you’re complaining?”

Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but twitch her mouth. How was this helping? More like causing a mess, the more he helped, the bigger the mess.

But seeing Lin Junyang’s attitude, she realized he probably had never been in a kitchen before, so she stopped complaining.

Besides, she didn’t want to waste the opportunity to be alone with Lin Junyang.

She looked around and grabbed two eggs, ”Well, Brother Yang, can you help me beat these eggs?”

Beating eggs should be something he could manage, right?

Lin Junyang took the eggs, found a bowl, and in the next moment, he muttered a curse.

”FUCK!”

He was staring down, his face dark as could be, glaring at the eggshells in his hand as if he could pierce them with his eyes.

The egg liquid within the shell had all... splattered onto his foot.

Even though Xiao Xiao wanted to be nice, she couldn’t help but laugh.

She always knew Lin Junyang was a kitchen hazard, but she hadn’t expected him to be capable of self-destructive tendencies.

Lin Junyang hadn’t expected this outcome either. Even if he couldn’t cook, he could at least beat eggs. At worst, there might be some eggshell mixed with the egg liquid.

But to completely miss the bowl and have the egg liquid splatter onto his foot—this was a first. Now being laughed at by this silly woman, he felt even more upset.

He thought it true that associating with certain people could lead you to pick up their habits.

Fuming, Lin Junyang tossed the eggshell onto the stove, shook off the egg liquid from his foot, dragged one foot out of the kitchen, and bumped into two people coming out of the bedroom.

Seeing his odd walking posture and his darkened face, An Ran blinked and blinked again, ”Brother Yang, what’s wrong?”

”Nothing,”—this embarrassing incident was something Lin Junyang couldn’t bring himself to talk about. He uttered two words and walked into the bathroom.

As he closed the door, he heard another burst of laughter coming from the kitchen.

Xiao Xiao was laughing while holding a freshly cooked plate of greens, wiping away tears of laughter.

”What’s going on, Xiao Xiao?” An Ran asked curiously.

Xiao Xiao squinted her big eyes, looking toward the bathroom, trying to suppress her laughter. She leaned in close to An Ran and whispered softly.

The sound wasn’t loud, but enough for An Ran and Mu Xingfeng to hear clearly.
