Chapter 297: Jealousy
Jiang Li let Wei Ziheng wander around in shock while she went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Fu Jiuxiao was about to get off work, and it was rare for Wei Ziheng to come. This was the first time that Jiang Li, as the hostess of this place, invited a friend to her house.
Jiang Li was going to show off her skills.
Wei Ziheng knew that Jiang Li was going to cook personally, and he was so shocked that his mouth felt like it could fit an egg.
It felt like the sun was rising from the west, and he would be able to eat his boss’s cooking in his lifetime. Wei Ziheng felt that this trip was not in vain.
Although Wei Ziheng was very curious about what kind of place Fu Jiuxiao lived in, he was also very interested in Fu Jiuxiao himself. The moment he saw Fu Jiuxiao, he was also very excited.
Wei Ziheng had known Fu Jiuxiao since Fu Jiuxiao was in primary school. Fu Jiuxiao was eight years old when passed his grade eight piano exam. At the age of sixteen, he went to a top university in the country. At the age of twenty-four, he returned home after finishing his Ph.D. in economics and management abroad.
In just a few years, Fu Jiuxiao had pushed the Fu Corporation from the top 100 in the country to the top 10 in the world!
However, when he came back, his leg was already broken. Fu Jiuxiao was in a wheelchair, and Wei Ziheng still remembered that this matter had caused a lot of discussions.
Therefore, Wei Ziheng was both curious and impressed with Fu Jiuxiao. Other than the fact that his leg was broken, Fu Jiuxiao was also suitable for his boss.
This was why Wei Ziheng was so excited and friendly when he saw Fu Jiuxiao coming back.
He even asked Fu Jiuxiao to wash up and tidy up. Jiang Li was making dinner and it would be ready soon.
It was as if Fu Jiuxiao was the guest and he was the owner of this place.
If Wei Ziheng was not a friend of Jiang Li’s and was too warm-hearted, Fu Jiuxiao would have called the dog over and told Wei Ziheng to get lost.
Fu Jiuxiao endured it and looked at the kitchen. There was indeed a familiar sound of cooking coming from inside.
Fu Jiuxiao went upstairs and planned to change his clothes before coming down. He did not give Wei Ziheng a glance or say a word throughout the whole process.
Wei Ziheng, who had suffered a huge blow from Fu Jiuxiao, quickly moved his target to Jiang Li.
He started to watch Jiang Li cook in the kitchen.
Wei Ziheng pouted and complained, “Your fiancé is too cold. If this continues, he won’t have any friends.”
Jiang Li prepared the fish soup while telling Wei Ziheng to help pick the coriander for her.
“Cut the crap. As long as I like it, it’s fine. is that coriander not ready yet?”
“Why do you want to use coriander? It tastes terrible.”
Wei Ziheng was a little disgusted. Although he could eat coriander, he was not used to the taste.
“It’s not for you to eat. Where did you get the guts to choose here?”
“Damn, boss, you haven’t even married her yet, and you’re already so biased towards him?!”
“Of course I’m biased towards my man.”
“But am I not your man?”
Wei Ziheng looked hurt. He deliberately threw the coriander in his hand in front of Jiang Li.
Jiang Li could not be bothered with Wei Ziheng. She rolled her eyes and continued to cook her own dishes.
However, Wei Ziheng was unwilling to give up. He complained and criticized at times. He was even more annoying than a resentful wife.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. You even made medicinal cuisine? When did our boss become so gentle and considerate?”
“Hey, why don’t you remember that I like eating chilis? Didn’t you enjoy eating chilis with me back then?”
“I don’t like carrots. Don’t put that in!”
…
Such words made Jiang Li want to chase Wei Ziheng away!
However, Wei Ziheng persisted and refused to leave. From time to time, he would tell a few jokes, which sometimes made Jiang Li laugh.
Fu Jiuxiao came down after changing clothes and saw this scene.
Wei Ziheng had a smile on his face, and he was holding fresh vegetables in his hands. He was very close to Jiang Li, and his arms were close to Jiang Li’s arms.
Jiang Li was amused by what Wei Ziheng said, and she revealed a beautiful smile.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman were talking and laughing together in the spacious kitchen, making people feel like they were newlyweds. Fu Jiuxiao’s face turned cold when he saw them.
He slid his wheelchair forward and called out to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li’s eyes lit up instantly, and she ignored Wei Ziheng and smiled at Fu Jiuxiao. “It’ll be done soon. Wait for a moment at the dining table.”
“Okay.”
Fu Jiuxiao replied, but his eyes were fixed on Wei Ziheng, and he spat out a few words coldly.
“Come out!”
“Hmm?”
