Swan Lake - When Ice Touches the Chords (On Hiatus)

10: |Envie|

After much insisting and whining of sister Marina, Kate left for her house to have a proper usage of her remaining holidays while Yibo and Zhan with their two bodyguards went to Zhan's house. Naturally the house was empty as the other workers already left for their home. The old butler of the house had already gone to sleep respecting Zhan's order. It had been quite a long time and this old man had been looking after Xiao household. So Zhan respects and takes care of him just like his uncle.

It was past eight when they finally arrived at his house. They were supposed to be tired but they were not. Their eyes were brimming in happiness, their souls dancing.

Putting the car keys on the table Zhan rested himself on the couch while Yibo followed him. Incredibly, they were not ashamed of what they did back then.

After a few minutes, Zhan broke the silence.

"Yibo, it's 8:45 already. Should we have dinner now?"

"Yes, I'm hungry..."

"Hmm, me too. What do you want to have as dinner?"

"Umm don't know, anything you like." Yibo said while playing with his phone. It's quite natural for him to avoid the gaze of Zhan after all, who could ever deny they just shared their first kiss, in a very precious moment. Ahem...

"Umm okay then let me call aunt me... wait I forgot. They already left for their homes."

"Huh? Woah I see... then? "

"The butler is still here,should I call him?"

"Umm, if you're asking for my opinion Zhan ge, I will say not to wake him up, after all he is an old man."

"Hmm, I think the same too... then what will we... should I order som..."

"That will take even more time. How about we cook something Zhan ge?" Yibo said, almost springing up from the couch.

"We... cook...?"

"Yeah, together! It will be fun..."

"Umm since you insist, I guess there's no other way." Zhan said awkwardly while scratching his neck.

"Yaay! Then I will go and freshen up quickly and you should too. I don't think we should cook in this right." Yibo said to Zhan and naturally both of them giggled at that.

After 20 minutes of their respective bath, both of them came to the kitchen with all excitement.

Naturally they didn't start cooking right away as shocking to everyone the eldest person knew nothing about cooking while he could do anything. After mocking and whining they decided to eat dumplings and tomato egg soup.

"So should we prepare the soup first or the dumplings?"

"Umm, I guess soup no no the dumplings... how about we do that together?"

"Okay then we need tomatoes, onions, coriander, garlic, white pepper, salt and sesame oil." Yibo said.

"Wow Yibo you know a lot!" Zhan said excitedly.

At which Yibo smirked and said , "I know right?"

(A/N: I mean seriously? He just told the ingredients man. Okay here we go.)

Since Zhan never came to the kitchen before it took some more time to find the ingredients. After much blabbering they found it and Zhan started to chop them.

"So Yibo these are fine right?" Zhan said while pointing at the chopped vegetables for soup.

Yibo, like a mature chef nodded affirmatively as if he knew a lot about cooking.
