Chapter 100: Chapter 68 Satisfaction_5

This led to a sudden surge of several hundred game points for Fu Yang.

Compared to when he played by himself, it was nothing short of a miracle in scoring points.

Fu Yang suppressed the joy in his heart and pretended to be calm as he placed things on the table, "Go eat, I bought everything you asked for."

"Okay." Shu Wan stood up, washed her hands, then came out and took all the packaged food out to arrange on the table.

This Peking duck was something Shu Wan had seen that morning when she passed by the duck restaurant.

In her past life, people raised ducks, but they mainly used methods like frying, stir-frying, stewing, and boiling, and she had never seen this kind.

She had asked Wang Tian about it and then made a mental note.

However, Shu Wan didn’t know how to eat it. Although the original body was from Imperial City, she had been restricted by her family before adulthood, with just a meager amount of living expenses each month, and had never eaten these things.

After becoming independent from her family, the original body had been deceived into investing, incurring huge debts, and simply having no spare money for herself.

At this moment, looking at a bunch of ingredients mixed together, Shu Wan was somewhat at a loss.

She picked up a piece of duck with chopsticks, took a bite, then ate a bite of the pancake, and finally a slice of cucumber to cut the grease.

After Fu Yang happily appreciated his game points, he turned around to eat and was utterly astonished at the scene before him, "What are you doing?"

"Eating Peking duck."

"Who told you to eat it like that?" Fu Yang was speechless.

Sometimes Shu Wan seemed quite smart, but at other times, she was like a complete idiot.

He sat down in front of Shu Wan, took a pancake, dipped the duck in sweet bean sauce, then added two strips of cucumber, two strips of spring onion, and one strip of hawthorn, before rolling up the pancake into a bundle and tossing it into his mouth.

He chewed a couple of times and said vaguely to Shu Wan, "This is how you eat it, you don’t know anything."

Okay, now Shu Wan understood. She rolled one the same way Fu Yang had and put it in her mouth.

The pancake was soft, the duck skin crispy, and the duck meat delicate, with the sweetness of the sweet bean sauce, the freshness of the cucumber, and the sour-sweetness of the hawthorn, balancing out the flavors.

She quite liked this layered taste.

After swallowing the food in her mouth, she smiled at Fu Yang, "It’s very tasty, thank you for teaching me."

Shu Wan had a cold beauty, and people who weren’t familiar with her always thought she was aloof, but she wasn’t that hard to get along with in her daily life.

In fact, when she smiled, she was very approachable.

One would think of the gentle breezes of March, lightly brushing through the branches, bringing blossoms into bloom.

Fu Yang’s eyes paused momentarily, unable to understand why eating Peking duck could make Shu Wan as happy as anything.

"Old-fashioned." Fu Yang quietly muttered, "How can you act like you’ve never eaten Peking duck before."

"I haven’t eaten it before." Neither the original body nor she herself had indeed ever eaten it.

Fu Yang was taken aback, "Is your family that poor?"

"That was my stepmother." Shu Wan briefly explained the original body’s family situation.

Shu Wan felt suffocated by her family in her previous life, mostly because of the tragedy of the times.

Therefore, she could theoretically understand but could not emotionally accept it.

But it was different for the original body. She had a family in modern society but lived a much worse life than Shu Wan.

Shu Wan could not understand it, either theoretically or emotionally.

Hearing Shu Wan’s words, Fu Yang was momentarily stunned and subconsciously glanced at the Peking duck on the table.

He couldn’t quite imagine what kind of family, even if they were wealthy, would forbid their own children from eating Peking duck.

Fu Yang pursed his lips, "Then your dad really isn’t a good guy."

Shu Wan laughed, took a bite of another dish with her hand, and when she looked back to roll a piece of duck, she found an already rolled one in her bowl.

Shu Wan was slightly surprised and looked up, only to see half of Fu Yang’s face.

He carried his bowl back to his computer desk, watching game videos as if nothing had happened.

A hint of a smile flashed in Shu Wan’s eyes, and she lowered her head to eat the overly stuffed Peking duck roll.

In front of the computer, Fu Yang moved the mouse casually, catching a glimpse of Shu Wan eating the duck roll out of the corner of his eye before he lowered his head to take a bite of his rice.

When he looked up again, he found himself inadvertently on the trending news page.

And coincidentally, the headline of the trending news was a picture of himself.

"A chance encounter with a beautiful young man straight out of a comic, passersby exclaim, ’Is there really such a handsome guy?!’"
