How to Make a Perfect Soup: A Couple's Collaborative Effort

【Ding!】

【Congratulations, Host! You have completed the "Double Bonding for the Dao" test mission and successfully bound a Taoist partner!】

【Reward: 200 sect contributions and 300 spirit stones】

【Taoist partner's sect identity: Acting Sect Leader!】

【Friendly reminder: As the number of Taoist partners increases, new types of prizes have been added to the lottery pool.】

After receiving the property deed from Aunt Qimeng.

Everything that followed came naturally amidst the tense atmosphere.

Chen Qimeng's daily life mostly followed a three - point - one - line routine.

Home, flower shop, market, home, flower shop, market...

Her life was simple and monotonous.

But she never complained, nor did she try to break this peaceful life.

Recently, after gradually sensing Lin Yu's feelings.

Her mindset began to change subtly.

Occasionally, when she was alone in her room.

She would also start to think on her own.

Maybe thirty - five could be a new beginning in life?

Maybe, even after a divorce, she could, like other girls, have a sweet love?

If this person was Lin Yu, someone she knew well...

Maybe it was the best arrangement.

Accepting Chen Qimeng's "feelings" meant passing the final hurdle.

...

Two bath towels were placed on the table.

The bright red property deed lay heavily on top of them.

Lin Yu firmly accepted this heavy - hearted gesture.

It was not until this moment that Lin Yu most intuitively and honestly understood the "divine might" of the Acting Sect Leader's Taoist body.

There was no need for any fancy skills.

As long as the emotions were strong enough and the atmosphere was ambiguous enough.

The domineering power of the Taoist body would naturally be fully unleashed.

A long kiss made Chen Qimeng feel dizzy.

They were not at home, and there was no one around to disturb them.

To a certain extent, this dispelled her concerns and made her relax a lot.

Completely relaxing both physically and mentally to cooperate with Lin Yu, it was completely different from the previous times when they soaked their feet in her bedroom.

Even if they just hugged tightly and their lips met, doing nothing else.

Waves of warmth still spread through their hearts.

At this moment.

Lin Yu was extremely grateful to the "ex - husband's sister".

If it weren't for the mountain of prejudice from the ex - husband, how could Lin Yu have such a pleasant surprise today!

During this time in the apartment, Lin Yu had obtained many recipes from the system and cooked many times.

Those exquisitely presented dishes could really stimulate a great appetite and bring a visual impact in terms of aesthetics.

People who often cook know...

Cooking is not difficult, but making soup is!

No matter how many delicious dishes one eats, they are not as warming and nourishing as a pleasant soup.

This soup had left Lin Yu with a regret for more than a decade and made him miss it for the same amount of time.

Lin Yu had enough patience today. From turning on the fire to adding water, he slowly made this soup...

"Xiaoyu, don't look..."

As the one in charge of cooking, Chen Qimeng closed her eyes and tightly clasped her hands.

Although she couldn't see Lin Yu's expression.

She could feel his burning gaze.

As a professional cook, how could she not keep a close eye on the state of the soup?

"Qimeng, is there anything we can't do between us?"

This simple and direct expression hit Chen Qimeng's heart.

Driven by Lin Yu, she gently placed her hands on both sides.

Lin Yu's eyes twitched: "!!!"

The restlessness in his heart could not be suppressed at all!

Lin Yu boldly took a try.

He felt that the water temperature in the cooking utensil was at the critical point between warm and boiling.

He knew very well in his heart.

It was time to add the ingredients!

To thicken a clear soup, the key was whether the ingredients were of high - quality and sufficient quantity.

Taking advantage of the moment when Chen Qimeng covered her eyes and dared not look directly.

Lin Yu took out a [Red - Curtain Dragon - Tiger Pill] from the system warehouse!

Since it was his first attempt at making soup, he naturally had to be considerate enough.

If he didn't spend a few hours on it, wouldn't it be a waste of this beautiful first - time cooking moment?

Regarding this.

The obedient Chen Qimeng was completely unaware of the seriousness of the situation.

The moment the ingredients were added.

Waves of steam, accompanied by a "WU~eng~" bubble sound, rippled on the water surface.

【Ding!】

【Amazing move! A life - long commitment like a dream has made the Taoist partner completely inseparable from the Holy Son!】

【Reward: 100 spirit stones】

The system's prompt sound did not distract Lin Yu from his cooking.

After adding the ingredients, to prevent the atmosphere and taste from being spoiled.

Lin Yu used a soup ladle to stir regularly in the cooking utensil.

He felt the temperature of the soup and the firmness of the ingredients before they melted.

The hot steam hit his body, and fine beads of sweat kept flowing.

If one used brute force to make the soup and cooked it on high heat all the time.

Of course, one could finish making the dish.

But this was not what Lin Yu was after, and he didn't care about the feelings of the person who would taste it.

He slowly simmered the soup on low heat, and from time to time, he stopped to add some Scottish - flavored seasonings.

He really tried to feel the situation inside the cooking utensil.

He got used to using this brand - new pot and cooking utensils at once and found the right boiling point.

During the cooking process, apart from the initial awkward period when Chen Qimeng felt a bit uncomfortable and in pain.

Throughout the rest of the process, she could clearly feel Lin Yu's gentle treatment.

From this day on.

The relationship between the two of them completely changed.

All the previous uneasiness was drowned in the steps of making the soup.

In the past, when faced with the teenage Lin Yu's verbal backtalk, Chen Qimeng would only feel sad.

But now, when faced with Lin Yu's backtalk, her emotions were the opposite.

That once silent and taciturn boy had really grown up!

And she had finally walked out of the shadow of being disliked by her "ex - husband" openly.

"Qimeng, let me take a break. You continue to 'cook'."

"This is also a part of lovers' life. You can't avoid learning it."

"I don't have much experience in 'cooking'. I only know this one way."

"Later... I'll try other methods!"

Perhaps because she was deeply immersed in her emotions.

When Lin Yu stepped aside, Chen Qimeng didn't show any intention of refusing.

If you haven't seen a real dragon in mythology, haven't you seen one in movies or TV shows?

Chen Qimeng recalled the scenes she had seen before and tried to take over from Lin Yu.

She knew.

No matter how many times she told Lin Yu not to look.

Lin Yu would still look at her with the greatest sincerity and affection.

Obviously, he was much younger than her.

But in terms of expression, he was much bolder than her.

Could she also try...

After getting settled, Chen Qimeng leaned down and closed her eyes, offering a kiss on her own initiative.

Lin Yu was instantly energized: "!!!"

From the start of making the soup until now.

It was the first time he felt the proactive Chen Qimeng.

Instantly, Lin Yu regained his full - fledged enthusiasm!
