The Tycoon Has A Secret Crush On Me

Chapter 2301: Chapter 2726: Hard to Describe

Zhao Xiao surveyed the room: a wooden bed with a bunk structure, books below, sleeping above.

A desk, a wardrobe, and nothing else.

On the desk, besides an old computer, there was nothing else.

In the wardrobe, aside from quilts, there were some clothes, all very worn out, washed so many times their original colors were unrecognizable.

Is this Ye Tianjing’s place? Zhao Xiao wondered.

Just as she was about to take a closer look, the door opened from the outside.

Zhao Xiao, startled like a rabbit, quickly shut the door and turned around.

"You can use these things, then go take a shower, I’m going to sleep."

Ye ’Father’ wasn’t sure why Ye Ranran sent Zhao Xiao over, but since she was here, he thought about how Ye Tianjing was still there.

He decided to be polite.

Perhaps Ye Ranran would be kinder to Ye Tianjing too.

In places he couldn’t see, he always sensed Ye Ranran was hard on Ye Tianjing.

"Oh, okay, I’ll wash up right away."

Ye ’Father’ said no more, closed the door, and left.

Zhao Xiao felt Ye ’Father’s’ behavior was odd, but she couldn’t quite pinpoint why.

Forget it, she was tired anyway, might as well wash up and sleep.

Just as she picked up her pajamas, Zhao Xiao’s stomach growled.

Turns out, she hadn’t had dinner yet.

She took out some snacks from her bag.

"Luckily, I came prepared."

Afraid she’d get hungry on the way, she’d packed some little bread rolls, not expecting the trip to be so short that she didn’t need them after lunch.

However, they came in handy now.

After eating three rolls and drinking some water, Zhao Xiao felt full.

Took a shower, then made the bed, and fell asleep the moment she lay down.

The next day, when the alarm went off, she got up dazedly, reached down to find her shoes.

After wobbling for a while, she bumped her foot against the wooden frame.

The pain instantly brought her back to full wakefulness.

Looking at the swelling on her foot, tears welled up in Zhao Xiao’s eyes.

But there’s no one here to comfort her, so she sniffed, then got out of bed.

Due to the pain, she almost fell off when she stumbled down.

Managing to get down was hard enough, but she bruised her knee in the process.

Sitting on the ground, Zhao Xiao was in pain, unable to get up for quite a while.

Since childhood, her parents had always pampered her, when had she ever suffered like this?

For a moment, she considered packing up and leaving.

But thinking of her earlier determined resolve, she backed down.

"Forget it, it’s just a tiny wound, nothing much," she mumbled to herself.

After encouraging herself for a bit, Zhao Xiao stood up, changed into some casual clothes, and went out.

Opposite her room was the kitchen, and lifting her head, she saw Ye ’Father’ bustling inside.

Not expecting him to be up so early, Zhao Xiao hurried over: "Uncle, let me do it."

What Zhao Xiao said was meant to be polite, her intention was to assist while learning a thing or two.

Unexpectedly, Ye ’Father’ actually stepped aside: "Okay, you take over."

Zhao Xiao was dumbfounded.

But since it was already like this, she couldn’t very well admit she couldn’t cook, right?

Why did she put on airs before?

Bracing herself, Zhao Xiao started.

This time, she learned her lesson, not turning the kitchen into chaos.

Only, the appearance of the dishes: uh, you couldn’t really tell what they were.

Ye ’Father’ pointed at a plate in front of him asking, "What’s this?"

"Pickled mustard."

"And this plate?"

"Eggs."

Charred, strip-like, looking more like worms, Ye ’Father’ couldn’t recognize a bit of the pickled mustard.

As for the eggs, they were beyond words.

The blackish-yellow appearance closely resembled something unspeakable.
