Chapter 60 - 60 Numb

60 Numb

“Mr. Fang, I didn’t expect you to come so fast. I’m not ready yet.” Yin Xun smiled and said, “Sit here for a while and eat some snacks. Wait for me for a bit. I’ll be done soon.”

Fang Yao nodded in agreement and sat down on the sofa.

Yin Xun brought him a pile of snacks and placed them on the coffee table before rushing into the kitchen.

Fang Yao looked at the snacks in front of him and then at Yin Xun. He felt a little exasperated. Yin Xun treated him like a child and actually brought out so many snacks.

!!

Next to the snacks were some fruit that Yin Xun had just washed. Fang Yao casually picked up a grape and popped it in his mouth. This fruit must have been just taken out of the fridge. It was cold and tasted good.

The grapes were delicious, so Fang Yao ate two more. He had been busy all day and had not eaten yet. Only after eating two grapes did he feel the hunger kick in.

Looking at Yin Xun who was busy in the kitchen, Fang Yao was suddenly looking forward to tonight’s dinner.

However, that anticipation did not last long. Suddenly, he heard a clanging sound coming from the kitchen. He had no idea what had fallen to the ground.

Then, Fang Yao saw Yin Xun bending over and squatting on the ground, doing something.

He was suddenly worried, so he asked, “Do you need help?”

“No, no need! Just sit there and wait for me!” Yin Xun’s words sounded a little anxious. Just as she finished speaking, there was another clatter from the kitchen and Yin Xun gave a low cry of surprise.

“…Okay.” Fang Yao was afraid that he would be a hindrance if he went over, so he sat on the sofa and stopped paying attention to Yin Xun.

Having nothing to do, Fang Yao began to look around the room carefully. Although he had already looked around when he came in just now, he had only casually looked at the distribution of the rooms and had not looked at the details.

The room was well decorated. It was mainly white, and there was no furniture in the room. Other than the necessary sofa, table, and refrigerator, there was nothing else. It looked simple, elegant, clean, and bright.

It was said that one could tell the host’s personality from the renovation of the room. Based on his preliminary observation, Yin Xun must be a more casual person. She was probably more focused on work and did not care for leisure much.

He also remembered how the apology gift Yin Xun gave him was a light bulb, of all things. Although the light bulb was made of crystal and was very beautiful, only Yin Xun could think of giving him such a gift.

While Fang Yao was observing the room, he suddenly smelled a strange smell, as if something was burning.

Fang Yao turned around and looked in the direction of the kitchen. Just as he was about to ask Yin Xun what was wrong, he saw Yin Xun walking out with a plate of food.

“I’m sorry. This is my first time cooking, so I was a little slow. However, the taste should still be alright. Come and try it.” Yin Xun placed the dish on the table and warmly invited Fang Yao to try it.

Fang Yao walked over. When he saw the blackened plate on the table, all his initial anticipation instantly disappeared. At this moment, he was filled with dread.

He picked up his chopsticks and picked up some food. Smelling the strong burnt smell, he frowned and asked, “What is this?”

“Stir-fried meat with mushrooms! It doesn’t look great, but…” Yin Xun wanted to say that the taste was decent, but she could not bring herself to say it when she looked at the plate of charred and black stuff.

“Try it first. It doesn’t look good, but it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t taste good. I think it should be edible.” Yin Xun’s voice became softer and softer. It seemed that even she could not stand it anymore.

“Forget it, let’s not try this for now. There are still some ingredients in the kitchen. I’ll make two more dishes. With this experience, I’ll be able to make something.” Yin Xun wanted to take the dish away.

“Wait, it’ll be a waste to throw it away. Let me try it.”

Fang Yao stopped her. He saw that Yin Xun had worked hard to prepare this dish and decided to spare her some dignity.

Therefore, he picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of something that was either mushroom or meat. He put it in his mouth.

He had just put the food into his mouth and had yet to start chewing when a salty sensation invaded his mouth. Even his tongue felt numb. At this moment, it was as if he had just eaten a mouthful of salt.

Fang Yao frowned slightly and tried to chew, but because his tongue was numb, he could not feel anything other than saltiness.

Although he could not taste it, he could feel the texture. In the end, he still did not know if he was eating meat or mushrooms. It was woody and hard.

With great effort, Fang Yao swallowed the food in his mouth. After that, he let out a long sigh of relief. This dish had truly subverted his understanding of food.
