Chapter 311: “Simple” Birthday Dinner
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After that day, life returned to normal…
The training continued…
She was getting better in the training and she learned many skills. Her confidence also increased and she felt that she was very awesome now. She was no longer the nerdy Jian Dan who was clumsy at anything athletic. Now, she was the smart and athletic Jian Dan.
In order to thank Master Spirit, she cooked today and prepared a feast for him to celebrate his birthday…
As for why she knew that today was his birthday? It was because she happened to see a photograph by chance. The back of the photograph happened to indicate it was his birthday. Hence…
She was going to secretly celebrate for him.
It was good that his kitchen was separated from the house; she could prepare delicious food for him in the kitchen without him knowing.
Her capabilities in the kitchen were well known. However, it seemed to be just enough. One cake and one bowl of noodles!
She baked the cake first. Just as she was about to make the noodles, she realized that there did not seem to have an induction cooker in his kitchen…
Use the stove?? She had psychological trauma about it! What if she burned down her coach’s kitchen too?
However, she was already at the last step. She could not give up! Hence, she could only brace herself and do it.
Moreover, there was not even a gas stove with automatic ignition in the kitchen. There was only a simple gas stove that needed to be manually lit.
This was too much of a test for her! This was completely out of her expectations! She had no idea where to start.
Frowning, she stood where she was and tried to think of a solution…
She scanned every corner of the kitchen, hoping to find something that she could use. Suddenly, something attracted her gaze—the electric kettle!
She brought the electric kettle over… “This can be used to cook noodles!” She muttered to herself in the kitchen.
After coming up with the solution, a smile finally appeared on her face.
After settling the noodles, she was only short of the sauce… But what could she do about the sauce?
It seemed like she still needed a gas stove!
She had no choice but to… She picked up the lighter on the refrigerator and went to the gas stove. She lit the lighter and turned on the gas valve. She slowly approached the gas stove.
“Ow!” Her fingers were burned, but she still did not manage to light the gas stove, so she could only endure the pain and close the gas valve first.
He was sitting in the house when he suddenly heard a woman’s cry from the kitchen. He frowned. How could someone discover such a hidden place?
He picked up the pistol under the table and went to the kitchen…
He was already prepared to shoot the intruder, But before he could raise his gun, he saw the person in the kitchen… “What are you doing?”
Hearing a voice behind her, she did not need to guess to know that it was her coach.
She turned around awkwardly and forced a smile at the coach…
She watched as he walked towards her and hid her injured hand behind her back. “Hehe… I just want to make fried sauce noodles for you, but I’m having some technical issues!”
“Cook noodles?” He gave Jian Dan the once-over with a scrutinizing expression.
“Yeah! Isn’t it your birthday today? You have to eat longevity noodles! But… even if you need to eat something else, I can’t cook it because I only know how to make fried sauce noodles!”
“How do you know…”
“I saw it written on the back of a photo.”
“You have taught me so many things. Of course, I have to thank you! Moreover, we have known each other for some time now. It shouldn’t be just the relationship between teacher and student! We should be friends!” Jian Dan gave a smile that was without any impurities as she looked at him innocently.
Seeing Jian Dan’s smile and gaze, Malicious Spirit felt as if his heart had been knocked by something.
“Master Spirit, since you’re here, help me light the gas stove. I just need to stir-fry some sauce.” Jian Dan looked at her coach expectantly.
By right, going by Malicious Spirit’s personality, he would not help her. However, for some reason, he went to the gas stove and lit it.
“Master Spirit, stand at the back first. I’ll…” Although the shape of the required ingredients that she had cut was a little ugly, it was still edible!
Five minutes later…
The fragrant fried sauce was out of the pot… She scooped the noodles into a bowl—scooped a spoonful of sauce on it—and added some strips of cucumber and carrot. The reason why they were strips? It was because she cut them a tad too thick!
“Master Spirit, my culinary skills are only so-so. On account of my hard work, try it!”
He looked at the bowl in Jian Dan’s hand. The food in the bowl was really a little rough on the edges. But for some reason, he could not reject it. He reached out to take it—mixed it—and ate it. The taste was indeed so-so, but he cleaned the bowl nonetheless…
There was a strange feeling in his heart as he ate the noodles..
