As she spoke, Kikyo Kushida pointed to a newly bought, unopened planer placed on the table next to her.
"I also bought the special grater. It should be very convenient."
"Oh, it's okay. I can just use the knife."
Wu Yi kept hugging her from behind, put his hands into the sink from both sides, grabbed one of the potatoes and started washing it with a steel wool.
After washing it clean, it is natural to cut it into shreds.
As the clanging sound of the kitchen knife falling on the chopping board rang out, Kikyo Kushida, who had nothing to do in the kitchen, sat on the countertop nearby, chin in hand, staring at Wu Yi, who kept chopping with the knife at the stove. Her calves wrapped in black socks were swaying back and forth in the air. She enjoyed watching this simple, boring and even a little noisy action with great interest.
This should have been a very heartwarming scene, but as time went on, Kikyo Kushida felt something was more and more wrong.
Well...normally you should just cut it into strips, why do you stop and pick up one to the light and compare it repeatedly, muttering to yourself, either "Hmm, it feels like it can be a little thinner" or "This should be about right".
Is she that picky? Obviously not!
If it's not that, why make it so rigorous? Do you think it's an exam for state banquet-level chefs?
The ancients said that when something is abnormal, there must be something wrong. After a little thought, the girl decided to follow her intuition.
"Wu~Yi~"
"Ok?"
Wu Yi, who had just finished cutting half a potato, paused for a moment and turned to look over.
Kushida Kikyo maintained a perfect smile and spoke every word.
"Are you hiding something from me?"
"…Is it still too late to say anything?"
Wu Yi hesitated for a moment.
The girl's smile widened.
"Okay~"
"Well then there is."
Wu Yi admitted it readily, and then took a second to consider his words.
"In short, in order to find a partner for Sudou, I agreed to a first-year girl's request to cook dinner for her on Friday evening."
"..."
"That's it."
Wu Yi added another sentence.
"..."
After a moment's silence, Kikyo Kushida jumped off the stage without saying a word, walked up to Wu Yi with a dark face, and pointed at the floor under her feet.
"What I mean is, you're going to bring a first-year girl to this room this Friday and cook a meal for her?"
"Well, that's basically what it means. As for the specific reason, I can't really tell you. Anyway, that's what the other party asked for. She said that as long as I can make food that satisfies her taste, she will agree to partner with Sudo. Yukinoshita and Sudo can testify to this." Wu Yi scratched his forehead and admitted.
"Tsk..."
This was related to a special exam, and she knew that it was impossible to throw a tantrum and say no at this time. Kushida Kikyo took two deep breaths in dissatisfaction, and even as her chest heaved violently, she still glanced at someone with a bit of reluctance.
"Is it really just to cook a meal?"
"This...what else?"
Wu Yi was a little amused.
"Let's not talk about anything else. She's from Class A, Grade 1, her name is Amasawa Ichika, and I've only known her for less than two hours today. What can we possibly develop?"
"Hmph, that's hard to say..."
Kushida Kikyo gave him a sidelong glance.
"Forget it. It's not that I can't agree to it, but you have to keep the voice call with me the whole time, and you have to send the person away immediately after the meal. Do you understand?"
Wu Yi was amused by the girl's jealous look. He put down the kitchen knife and rinsed his hands under the faucet. Then he walked over and hugged her gently, lowering his head slightly and whispered in her ear.
"When we're done eating, let her go. Is that okay?"
"Well, that's more like it... No, it's not good enough..."
Kushida Kikyo pouted to show that she was not so easy to deal with.
"A meal. I want you to cook a meal that satisfies me. After all, if she comes on Friday, I will have to come late, which means I will lose out. So I want a meal as compensation. Is that too much?"
"Hi hi~"
Volume 339: Chapter Senpai~
From Tuesday to Thursday, in addition to the 22 groups that formed partners on the first day, another 34 second-year students formed partners with the first-year students in the next three days.
In just the first week, before Friday, a total of 56 pairs of partners were born.
Given that the total number of partner pairs is only 155, it means that one-third of the second-year students have found suitable partners.
The preparation period is three weeks in total. One-third of the time has passed, and the partnership composition has also been one-third.
That makes sense... shit.
On Friday evening, as the fiery red sunset in the sky gradually sank towards the distant sea level, Wu Yi arrived near the shopping mall ten minutes early. That was the place he had agreed to meet with Tianze Yixia.
He looked around but couldn't see the other person. Considering that there was still some time, he took out his phone, opened OAA and started reading.
"Oh?"
After watching for less than two minutes, Wu Yi made a puzzled sound.
He noticed that in OAA, the avatars of all the members of Class B, Grade 2, showed the status of "Completed Team Formation".
In contrast, among the fifty-six people who have formed partners in the first grade, the vast majority have an academic ability of only C or D, and even B is rarely seen, let alone the few A's.
In other words, Ichinose accepted most of the first-year students with low academic ability...
Wu Yi did not intend to criticize Ichinose's tactical strategy. After all, the biggest feature of Class 2-B is its strong affinity. The advantage is that they will face less pressure when encountering similar team-building problems, but the disadvantage is that they can only associate with the weak.
This is the only method that Class B can use, and only Class B can use.
However, although a good and virtuous wife can make the main C feel at ease and greatly improve the upper limit, just like Nami and Lu Xian can kill indiscriminately.
But if the entire team is made up of good wives, then this problem will be huge.
To sum it up, Class 2B is difficult...
"Sen~pai~ (senior)"
Time passed unknowingly, and just when Wu Yi was about to put down his phone to see if the people around him who were supposed to come had arrived, the voice of a little devil school girl sounded at the right time, accompanied by a warm and moist breath blowing against his ears.
Wu Yi didn't even need to turn his head. He just glanced sideways and saw a red-haired girl with twin ponytails standing next to him, standing on tiptoes and blowing hot air towards his ears.
The main reason is that there is a huge difference in height between the two people, so Tian Ze Yixia can only do this if he wants to achieve this effect.
"...What are you doing?" Wu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling a little annoyed by her.
"I hate it~"
Tianze Yixia stopped breathing and waved with a smile.
"Don't you think this is very mature and tempting, Senpai?"
"I don't think so, unfortunately."
Wu Yi shrugged, his sentence was euphemistic but the meaning was clear.
"What you mean by blowing in the ear is what other long-legged queens do. As for you... you have to eat for another two years."
"That's too much~"
Tianze Yixia's expression seemed to change particularly richly. One moment he looked aggrieved and crying, and the next he started laughing happily.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go buy ingredients for dinner first. Oh, by the way, what were you looking at on your phone just now, was it a cooking guide? HOHO~ Let me make it clear that although Senpai's figure makes me very excited, I am also very strict about cooking. If you just practice your skills at the last minute, it won't work. You must work hard."
As she spoke, she took Wu Yi's sleeve and pulled him forward.
Although it was in broad daylight and in a public place, neither of them tried to be shy.
No one knows why Tianze Yixia is like this, but at least in Wu Yi's opinion, they now look more like siblings than a couple, especially with this not-so-cute height difference.
After walking for a while and seeing the entrance of the shopping mall in front of them, Wu Yi suddenly asked.
"By the way, Tianze, which country's food do you like more?"
"Well, I like everything as long as it's delicious. I don't have any particular favorites."
Tianze Yixia nodded his mouth and thought for a while, then raised a slightly teasing smile.
"What? Are you starting to lose confidence again, senior? That's right. What if I get a test on a dish I've never heard of? I'm so nervous~"
“Isn’t it normal to have dishes you’ve never heard of?”
Wu Yi didn't care and looked straight ahead.
"There are so many cuisines in the world, just like martial arts schools. Chinese cuisine alone can be divided into at least eight major cuisines, each with different focuses. Some focus on heavy oil, color, and fire, mainly roasting, stewing, and steaming, while others prefer lighter flavors and focus on delicate and exquisite appearance. Let alone being proficient in all the cuisines of the world, I have never seen anyone who dares to say that he is proficient in all the cuisines of a particular country."
"Oh……"
Tianze Yixia was stunned when he heard this.
To be honest, this seemed to be the first time she had heard of this cuisine.
"Huh? Why don't you speak?"
After a while, there was no reply, Wu Yi looked down with some confusion.
He saw that Tianze Yixia, who had been walking in front of him just now, had slowed down at some point and landed beside him. He was looking back with his head tilted, a look of curiosity and a little confusion.
"What's wrong? Don't you know this?"
"Oh no……"
After realizing that he had exposed his flaw, Tian Ze Yi Xia quickly restrained his expression and curled his lips.
"I don't know. I prefer to have others cook for me rather than cook it myself. Is there any problem?"
"I see. This is the Parents' Godly Chef Training Program, right?"
"……Eh?"
The red-haired girl with twin ponytails was slightly stunned.
Wu Yi also paused.
"Isn't that so? But then again, if your parents don't cook for you, Tianze, and you don't cook for yourself, do you hire someone to do it?"
Hearing this, the girl nodded hesitantly.
"Well, that's about right..."
"What a rich dog owner." Wu Yi exclaimed.
"You are the rich dog owner..."
The little devil schoolgirl retorted rudely.
Well, okay, from the guest's perspective, the Wu family is indeed a big dog family.
"Let's go buy some kitchenware first."
"Kitchenware? I have all that in my room..."
"It's different~"
Tianze Yixia stopped, turned around, shook his index finger, and raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
"The things in the senior's room are for his own use, right? The things I'm going to buy next are for my exclusive use. Of course, since they are for my exclusive use, please be sure not to use them indiscriminately during normal times."
“…That’s fine.”
To Tianze Yisha's surprise, Wu Yi pinched his chin and thought about it, but he agreed without any resistance.
"By the way, buy the dishes and chopsticks as well. When you are done with them, you can just pack them up and take them away."
"Eh?"
"What? If you don't take him away and stay with me, there will be only one outcome."
"What will happen?"
