Missing delicious food

  "Honey, to be honest, I've known Zhang Jin for many years and I really didn't know he had this skill. This dish is made so well that even the top chef in a five-star hotel wouldn't be able to do better. If I knew Zhang Jin could cook like this, I'd rather die than divorce him." In Xiao Fei's home, Mu Xinran sat in front of the dresser in the master bedroom, taking care of her skin after removing her makeup, while talking to Xiao Fei who was leaning against the headboard and browsing the internet on his laptop. Her face was full of lingering envy.

  Xiao Fei remained staring at the computer screen, not even lifting his head as he replied: "Don't mention you, even if it was me who had known him for over a decade, wouldn't I still be clueless about this? That's just how Boss is, with many skills but never willing to show them all at once. Yet, he always inadvertently reveals a corner of his true self. We brothers are used to it! If it weren't for this, relying on his seniority alone, would we have submitted to him as our leader?"

  What Xiao Fei said is not unreasonable. In the university stage, Zhang Jin was a person who was deeply hidden but always inadvertently showed his hand and dazzled everyone. People familiar with him all say that this Zhang Jin is a strange person in X University, unfathomable.

  For example, basketball.

  Zhang Jin's hometown is Heilongjiang Province in Northeast China. With a height of 185 cm and a weight of 75 kg, he looks like a typical Northeastern strong man. Therefore, when Zhang Jin first arrived at X University in southern Fujian, the perennially weak basketball team of the Medical College immediately took notice of him standing out among the new students and wanted to recruit him into the team. However, Zhang Jin declined with various excuses.

  Until the sophomore year, a school-wide inter-college basketball game, Zhang Jin finally stood out, dissatisfied with the medical college basketball team's bottom-of-the-barrel performance, and joined the team on the eve of the competition. With a hastily assembled medical college team, they swept into the finals like a hot knife through butter. In the final match against the Adult Education College, they engaged in what was hailed as the most classic showdown since the school's founding, especially with Zhang Jin's full-court dash from backcourt to frontcourt, culminating in a thrilling dunk that left an indelible mark on the memories of all students watching from the sidelines. If not for the Adult Education College's numerous specially recruited students and the medical college's overall weak strength, the medical college would not have lost by just three points and finished as runner-up. Thus, Zhang Jin, who rarely appeared on the basketball court, became an overnight sensation, a prince-like idol figure in the entire X University, with a flair reminiscent of the Chu Zhuang Wang's "If you don't make a sound, then it's fine, but if you do, it will shock everyone."

  Of course, this is just one of Zhang Jin's many notable events during his university days. There are many others.

  For example, Zhang Jin had failed the English level 4 exam three times and was ridiculed by his friends as a language idiot. However, he suddenly discovered that this guy could fluently chat with a hot Japanese girl he had just met in a bar using fluent Japanese, and even went to the hotel's big bed to exchange a few rounds, and it is said that the girl paid for the room in the end!

  When the guys who were shocked that Zhang Jin was so proficient in Japanese asked him in surprise, Zhang Jin's answer made them all nod their thumbs and sigh in unison: "Hobbies are indeed the best teachers." It turned out that Zhang Jin's Japanese skills came from his love for Japan's "action-packed" movies, but he couldn't understand the dialogue, which took away a lot of fun. In the end, he gritted his teeth and achieved fluency in less than a year. He truly lived up to his reputation as an extraordinary person!

  For example, Zhang Jin, in order to pursue a girl from the music department at that time, had attended almost a hundred classes in the music department, but still remained unfamiliar with those little notes on the five-line staff. It was this guy who could be called a musical idiot, yet he was able to play several simple practice pieces from "Czerny 599" by memory during his first piano lesson, stumbling through them almost flawlessly, and even being hailed as a genius by a professor in the music department.

  In summary, Zhang Jin may not be a genius or even a good talent, but calling him a 'weirdo' or 'oddity' is quite fitting.

  "Wow, Zhang's cooking is really delicious! If only he could open a restaurant, then we could eat it often." On the other side, Lan Feifei was obviously just like Mu Xinyan, another little foodie. As she spoke, she seemed to recall the aroma of the "Three Delicacies Mushroom Stew" when the lid was lifted and the freshness when taking a bite, and she stuck out her small red tongue to lick her lips, which were already plump and rosy. The thin layer of saliva on her lips added a subtle luster to her already pure and lovely face, making this expression unexpectedly alluring and tempting to men.

  The only spectator, Wei Feng, was tempted by Lan Fei's appearance and his wolfish nature burst out. He first tightly hugged her into his arms and gave her a long, wet kiss before panting heavily and lewdly telling his little girlfriend: "If our little Fei is obedient, I'll often take you to Old Big's place for free meals. With me around, don't need to be polite to him."

  Lan Fei was very familiar with her boyfriend's expression, recalling the first time he had 'tricked' her into this house and stolen her most precious treasure of nineteen years in a painful and bloody night, his smile was just like that, making people feel hot and flustered, dizzy and confused.

  "You're making it hard for people to behave ~" Lan Feifei's face was flushed with embarrassment, her voice sweet and intermittent, fully playing the role of adding fuel to the fire.

  So for Weifeng, the moment of full moon had arrived, and the werewolf began to transform.

  What Xiao Fei and Wei Feng didn't expect was that, apart from the four of them, there was another person who was also a fan of Zhang Jin's cooking. And coincidentally, while they were discussing Zhang Jin's incredible culinary skills in their respective homes, this fan was also reminiscing about Zhang Jin's cooking.

  This person is none other than Ye Meng, Zhang Jin's ex-girlfriend who has also tried Zhang Jin's cooking. Although Ye Meng's home is in the city, it just so happens that her current middle school is on the opposite side of Shenzhen from her home. In order to save Ye Meng from wasting a lot of time commuting back and forth every day, she usually boards at school.

  After lights out in the dormitory, a midnight gathering was underway in Room 606 of the middle school girls' dormitory.

  "Third sister, isn't it just a few home-cooked dishes? You've been muttering about them for hundreds of times in the past few days. Even a gentle lady like me can't bear it anymore." The speaker was the youngest one in the dormitory, Lao Si Chu Qing. The "third sister" she mentioned was Ye Meng, who couldn't forget Zhang Jin's cooking skills.

  "Little Four, that's where you're wrong. Little Three wasn't talking about food, but people! You really are a simple-minded child, your brain is really not clever at all!" A playful voice came from another bed curtain. It was the second sister in the dormitory, Mei Mei.

  Although the three sisters in the same dormitory are well aware of her little thoughts about her ex-husband, they occasionally tease her about it, but Ye Meng can't get used to it at all. So this time she still blushed and strongly refuted: "Second sister is talking nonsense, I didn't. You guys haven't eaten it so you don't know, really, absolutely the best meal I've ever had." She now hates to swear by the heavens to clear her name.

  "Second sister is right, Third Brother is indeed a beauty in the eyes of his lover. I reckon even if Third Brother's ex-sister-in-law served him a plate of spoiled raw meat, he would still gobble it up with relish. And when he comes back, he'll still tell us sisters, 'That was really the best meal I've ever had, honestly. I swear.' " The eldest sister in the dormitory spoke up and put an end to Ye Meng's thoughts, especially that last sentence, which she said in a high-pitched voice, perfectly mimicking Ye Meng. Not only did it make Ye Meng shrink her entire face into the blanket like an ostrich, but it also made the other two sisters burst out laughing.
