Nalan Chunbo took out some ingredients that had been taken out from the refrigerator and set aside, then got to work preparing them. “When booking a presidential suite nowadays, the management will enquire if the kitchen will be used. They will prepare the ingredients beforehand if the guests want to use the kitchen. The living standards of guests has increased substantially over the years, so the hospitality industry had to up their game to be able to justify their exorbitant price.”
Wen Shan blinked, stunned.
Wen Shan leaned against the doorway and looked up at the ceiling. “I have the sudden urge to act out the scene of being crushed by a stone”
Back then, her father almost kneeled down and begged for mere hundreds, and now she was staying in a suite that cost tens of thousands a night.
Nalan Chunbo glanced back at Wen Shan then continued cleaning the prawns. “Let’s talk about the matter that’s bothering you then, since you can’t sleep. You won’t be able to put it behind you otherwise.”
Wen Shan immediately stood up and went to Nalan Chunbo, standing beside him in a silent request to help. Nalan Chunbo passed the prawns to her so she could clean them. He wanted to make a simple dish of poached prawns.
“First off, I’m sure of my heritage. Secondly, that kid and Ding Junqi are pretty similar so I doubt it’s my brother’s child. Don’t tell me there could be such a coincidence?”
“Wouldn’t this be settled with a simple DNA test?” Nalan Chunbo asked frankly.
“No, I’m afraid,” Wen Shan interrupted Nalan Chunbo hastily. What if the result was not what she wanted?
Nalan Chunbo glanced at her, frowning. “The probability of it is almost zero but as long as there is a small chance, it cannot be eliminated.”
“I purposely made a trip home to take my school photo. It was almost identical to that kid.” Wen Shan pursed her lips.
“Hence, a DNA test is the most effective method.”
“That’s equivalent to being sentenced!” Wen Shan exclaimed, raising her voice.
Nalan Chunbo had sliced the ginger and placed it in the pot together with water, Chinese wine, a pinch of salt, and scallions. He covered the pot then turned to Wen Shan. “That is the most effective way. Which would you prefer: living in fear or a quick result?”
“Living in fear.”
Nalan Chunbo blinked slowly.
Alright then, his girl was one of a kind.
“What are your plans then?” Nalan Chunbo asked calmly.
Wen Shan handed over the prawns that had been cleaned to Nalan Chunbo, and stared as he placed them into the boiling water for a short while. When the prawns turned red, he took them out and placed them on a plate. After adding some finishing touches, he passed the plate to Wen Shan. “Eat this as an appetizer. I’ll prepare something else for you.”
Wen Shan looked at the neatly placed prawns on the plate. The simple cooking method ensured the freshness of the prawns could be tasted and the light taste was perfect for an appetizer.
Nalan Chunbo’s actions reminded Wen Shan of her childhood. Every time her mum prepared meals, her mum would give her some food to snack on while she prepared dinner.
She felt like Nalan Chunbo treated her like a favored child.
Before he served the main meal, he prepared an appetizer for her so she wouldn’t get hungry.
“When we return, I want to meet Ding Junhui to ask about that kid.” She didn’t know Ding Junqi personally, so it might be a little awkward to meet directly.
But meeting Ding Junhui...?
Nalan Chunbo turned around and looked at Wen Shan instantly, his body tense.
