Tao Yu saw that he wasn’t being sarcastic, so she snorted and let it go. Then she realized her behavior had been too spontaneous, and immediately restrained herself. It was all because of Yue Linze’s recent strange behavior, which made her feel like she was still in the spiritual world, causing her actions to lack some composure.
Yue Linze didn’t mind her sudden seriousness and led her to the dining room.
The table was already set with two breakfasts, including bread, juice, grilled chicken breast, and salad, which looked appetizing. Tao Yu consciously sat at the side with larger portions, only then noticing the fried egg with a smiley face drawn in ketchup on her plate.
Tao Yu was stunned. She remembered that during the fourth world, when she and Yue Ze lived in a rural courtyard, Yue Ze had also learned to make fried eggs. After wasting many eggs, he finally succeeded and carefully drew a smiley face on the egg, exactly like the one in front of her.
Remembering the alternate personality who was focused on plating but often forgot to add salt, Tao Yu’s brow gradually furrowed. After a while, she casually said, “Today’s breakfast seems to have a different style from before.”
“Of course it’s different. I made this myself. Try it and see how it tastes.” After much consideration, he finally chose the method Zhou Ying suggested. Besides, he had used this approach of entering her life from all angles many times when he was split into two brothers, and it worked well then, so he thought it would work this time too.
Tao Yu wasn’t particularly surprised, but her heart gradually tightened: “Mr. Yue made this? How elegant. Why did you suddenly want to cook?”
In fact, she wanted to ask more about why he chose to make this specific fried egg, wondering if there were some lingering memories in his mind.
Yue Linze glanced at her, paused for a moment, and then slowly said, “Zhou Ying told me.”
“…Ah?” Tao Yu was stunned.
Yue Linze didn’t hesitate to throw Zhou Ying under the bus: “He taught me, saying this would win a girl’s heart.”
“…He’s causing trouble, and you’re still in contact with him?” Tao Yu’s focus successfully shifted.
