Breaking Through The Clouds

Chapter 88

Jiang Ting's cooking ability, if compared to something, was almost the same as Han Xiaomei's professional level as a criminal police officer - rich in theoretical knowledge but lacking in practical opportunities. Although there were some good parts, it was impossible to make a full-fledged feast on his own.

Fortunately, Yan Xie's purpose was just to let Jiang Ting add some points to his parent's hearts, and not to amaze them with his superb five-star-chef level skills, so:

"Last night's beef stew with potatoes was good, make it again, I'll ask people to send over the wagyu used for sashimi immediately. The fried prawns were also delicious, I'll call them to ask if they still have the New Zealand deep-sea crayfish, and to pick out two kilograms of the most expensive ones. Ah, scrambled eggs with tomatoes! My dad loves to eat that! Let's throw away that box of eggs at home, I'll ask someone to send another carton imported from Turkey. Go and boil the water and prepare to scald the tomatoes, hurry up!"

Jiang Ting: "..."

Half an hour later, the doorbell rang, and Yan Xie, like a soldier who heard the horn of the charge, jumped up and rushed to the gate, running back and forth to move boxes into the kitchen, which were filled with various high-end ingredients.

Jiang Ting looked at the kitchen full of enough ingredients to supply a hotel. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't say a word.

Yan Xie once again proved with practical actions: Any problem that could be solved with money was not a problem, and any weakness or shortcoming in the practice could be solved by throwing money.

"That's not right, Jiang Ting, didn't you tell me to soak the beef in water to remove the blood? I read a tutorial that says that it's best not to wash the beef, otherwise, it will lose its flavor?"

Jiang Ting was stir-frying prawns, and without lifting his head, he grabbed Yan Xie's mobile phone, flipped the "Charcoal Grilled Steak" page to the "Beef Stew" page in his newly downloaded cooking tutorial app, and stuffed it back into his arms.

"Oh..." Yan Xie was suddenly enlightened, and with tears welling up in his eyes, he continued to chop onions with all his might.

Yan Xie boiled water, washed vegetables, chopped peppers, peeled shrimp, and like a diligent worker bee buzzing and flapping its wings, he flew to the sink for a while, and then to the stove. Father Yan and Mother Yan, who had never cooked in their life, peered around the kitchen doorway, only to see their son and "daughter-in-law" walking around the kitchen countertop intimately. The scene was incomparably harmonious and happy, just like the Totole chicken essence advertisement on TV. They couldn't help but sigh for a moment.

"Release the air from the pressure cooker, and get a bowl of beef stew from the pot." Jiang Ting poured the sauce on the fried prawns for the last time and instructed Yan Xie: "Put out the scrambled eggs with tomatoes and let the rice simmer for a few more minutes, and come back to bring me a bottle of water, I'm thirsty."

Yan Xie's eye fell into the pan of red and fragrant prawns and he hurriedly took the dishes to the table outside. When he came back, he brought a bottle of iced mineral water, drank a large mouthful of it himself, and grabbed Jiang Ting's chin quickly when he looked up and fed him mouth to mouth.

"Hmm..."

Jiang Ting was caught off guard by the sneak attack, the spatula in his hand raised and the shrimp flew up, drew a parabola in the air, and with a snap directly hit Yan Xie's body. The agile Unit Vice-captain Yan was not frightened as expected, and grabbed the shrimp on the spot and swallowed it, burning himself to the point where he was gasping for breath.
