Chapter 158: Chapter 157 (Daily Life) Chicken Soup's Coming!



"????"

Boss Pu and a few others suddenly widened their eyes, then burst into a mischievous snicker.

Although this was 'dog food,' they were enjoying it way too much!

Geez, this sour and sweet 'dog food' is even better than imported Korean dramas!

Gu Yu was only slightly startled, but the reaction of everyone else was within his expectations.

He smiled at Lin Xinyue, who was covering her face, and teasingly said, "You don't like me calling you my wife? Then what about 'darling'? 'My love'?"

"Ah—! No, not at all! I haven't agreed to this!"

Lin Xinyue covered her ears, embarrassed to the point of wanting to crawl into a cupboard.

Gu Yu moved close to her face, pulled away her right hand, and whispered into her ear, "Wife~y."

Behind Lin Xinyue was a tiled wall, leaving her with no room to retreat.

Feeling Gu Yu's hot breath in her ear, she felt like she was about to pass out from embarrassment.

The little deer in her heart was about to collide itself to death!

"Ah! I'll bite you!"

In her urgency, Lin Xinyue bit Gu Yu on his right arm.

"Hiss—Granny, you really bit me!"

Gu Yu grimaced from the pain while air whistled through his teeth. He hadn't expected Lin Xinyue to actually bite him in her embarrassed anger.

"Right! From now on, you should call me 'Granny'!"

Lin Xinyue released her bite and stood with her hands on her hips, nodding forcefully.

"Pfft…" Gu Yu looked at her face, as red as an apple, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"What's so funny! What's so funny! Keep laughing and I'll bite you again, rawr!"

Lin Xinyue gritted her teeth, frustratedly patting against his chest.

"Alright, alright! Granny, Granny! I was wrong! I'll never dare to tease you again!"

Gu Yu hastily raised his hands to surrender, "Everyone's waiting to eat."

"Hmph! Let's eat then! Let's eat!"

Lin Xinyue glanced at him and then turned to the others, "Let's have our meal!"

Boss Pu and Hu Xiaoya, along with the others, were already stunned.

Boss Pu turned to the others, rubbing his belly, and feigned confusion, "I find it strange, I haven't eaten yet but suddenly I feel full? How about you guys?"

The others nodded in agreement, "Yes, we're full!"

"Burp~" Qin Shan belched as if she really was.

"Yueyue, I feel like I could give up my room for Gu Yu… I'll move downstairs," Hu Xiaoya said seriously.

"Yaya!! You're also teasing me! I'm not lending you my skincare cream anymore!" Lin Xinyue stamped her foot in vexation.

"Not allowed!"

"I was just joking! I will stick to Room 704 and guard the best Yueyue!" Hu Xiaoya's eyes widened as she quickly changed sides.

She had been strapped for cash recently, completely relying on her best friend's generosity to maintain her last bit of dignity!

If Yueyue stopped letting her mooch off her skincare products, it would be a huge blow!

"Humph! How dare you!" Lin Xinyue took the wet chopsticks Gu Yu passed to her, pulled one out, and flicked water at her best friend.

But Hu Xiaoya, being small and nimble, easily dodged the droplets.

She pulled Lin Xinyue down to sit at the head of the table, while massaging her shoulders and acting sweet, "Oh, Yueyue, you are my best friend indeed!"

"Of course, I will always stand by your side!"

Lin Xinyue shrugged, "That's more like it!" She then pulled out a pair of chopsticks and handed them to her friend, "Let's sit down first!"

Hu Xiaoya nodded; the two of them had been busy prepping and cooking all evening and were indeed quite tired.

Gu Yu quickly washed the dishes, then handed them out one by one.

Finally, everyone took their seats at the table, forming a circle.

Only Boss Pu was still fussing with a pressure cooker in the kitchen, unclear about what he was doing.

"Boss, what are you doing? It's time to eat!"

Gu Yu looked at the dishes whose steam was gradually dissipating and called out to Boss Pu in the kitchen.

"Almost ready! Just one more dish!"

Boss Pu responded.

Everyone could vaguely see him ladling soup from a pressure cooker with a large soup spoon.

Half a minute later, a beaming Boss Pu came out of the kitchen with a steaming pot of soup.

"Come on, make way!"

"Chicken soup's here!"

A hot basin of chicken soup was placed at the center of all the dishes, a light yellow layer of fat floating on top, beneath which lay the milky white chicken meat and a clear broth, with goji berries and rehydrated red date pieces bobbing up and down in the soup.

Just the smell alone seemed to convey the delicious taste of the chicken soup.

Everyone's appetite was whetted, but no one made a move to ladle the soup.

Seeing everyone seated and still, a puzzled Boss Pu hurriedly urged, "Drink! Why isn't anyone drinking?"

"This pot of soup is my family's secret recipe, handed down to me personally by my grandma! It beautifies women and for men... makes the golden rooster stand alone!"

Boss Pu thought that the others were doubting the taste of the soup, which was why they weren't taking any.

He quickly began to explain the origins of the soup.

He couldn't cook, but making soup was his special skill!

He had come upstairs early to prepare this pot of soup just to show off his skills to everyone since Gu Yu had already wowed them with a round of stir-fried spicy and sour shredded potatoes.

Now that the chicken soup was ready, he hurried to perform!

"Boss, how can we drink if you're not seated?"

Gu Yu smiled helplessly.

Pu Tongren looked surprised; turns out everyone was waiting for him to take his seat before eating!

"This... you're making me feel a little overwhelmed!" He scratched his head, not expecting this at all.

"Since you're the boss, naturally you should be the first to take a spoonful!"

Gu Yu stood up, pressed him down into the seat, then gently patted his shoulder.

Sitting down and seeing everyone's gaze on him,

Pu Tongren suddenly felt tears welling up.

What had he done to deserve such treatment from everyone!

He was just nominally a year older, then self-appointed dorm leader, and by default became the boss amongst Gu Yu and the others.

But ever since Gu Yu began showing his potential, he had quietly lowered his own status.

Because he knew that among his group of friends, only Gu Yu had the ability to hold the position of boss.

If Gu Yu ever said the word, he would be the first to switch from calling Laosi to calling him boss.

But now, Gu Yu's behavior unexpectedly reminded him of Zhu Yuanzhang from history.

Before Zhu Yuanzhang rose to power, two of his brothers had already become high-ranking officials.

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was still an unknown foot soldier.

But when Zhu Yuanzhang found his two brothers, the already high-ranking brothers still acknowledged him as the elder brother!

This kinship felt so similar to the moment at hand!

"Boss! A toast to you!"

Seeing the boss sitting and pondering something, Yu Shutong, as Laoer, was the first to stand up, ladling a bowl of chicken soup for the boss's bowl.

Then for himself.

"Boss, we toast you too!"

Qin Shan and Gu Yu also stood up, using chicken soup instead of wine.

Boss Pu picked up his bowl with tears in his eyes and toasted the three of them, "What have I done to deserve you three brothers!"

"Come on! Let's four brothers drink this bowl of chicken soup together!"

"Bottoms up!"

The hot chicken soup was gulped down by the four, and though it was scalding and made their faces flush, they all wore smiles.

The two girls sat on the side, eyes widened with curiosity at the scene.

Is this what male camaraderie is all about?
