His eyes narrowed suddenly, “Will you come again?”
“Maybe, if I get a chance, but definitely not these next few days!”
“Alright.”
There was still a chance.
Annoyed as he was, he couldn’t let the food go to waste.
Xanthoa brought out the food from the warming drawer, amonging a complete meal of four dishes and a soup on the table in the living room. “Let’s not eat at the dining table today. How about we watch TV while we ent?”
“Sounds good to me.”
Xanthea looked at the spread on the table, all looking so enticing and aromatic that she nearly drooled.
She had just picked up her utensils when a piece of the braised pork found its way into her bowl
Orion said, “Try this.”
She took a bite and immediately had her eyes smile in bliss.
“Mmm, delicious! Orion, your cooking is amazing, not even a cold can dampen your skills! This is Southern style cuisine, nght?” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
“Yeah.”
Xanthea raised her hand, “I know!”
“What?”
“It’s not the cuisine I love–it’s your cooking”
She leaned in to compliment him; her radiant face was magnified in his view. All he heard was, “I love you,” and his heartbeat stalled.
“You don’t know, I went to a restaurant at noon, which claimed to be the best in Crestwood, even more authentic than the local flavors. but it wasn’t even a tenth as good as yours, especially that soup, I couldn’t even take a second sip. I wonder if I’ll have another chance to enjoy your cooking?”
She asked with her eyes filled with hope, but she saw him staring blankly, as if lost in thought.
“Orion, Orion?”
She waved her hand in front of him, which made him snap back to reality, he picked up the remote with a flustered look, saying, “Let’s
watch TV.
Really? Changing the topic: does he not want to cook for her anymore?
“Alright”
Orion tumed on the TV and flipped through channels rapidly, so fast that Xanthea doubted whether he was even looking.
After about a minute, he stopped, and the screen settled on a romantic urban drama titled “When it comes to Love.”
Xanthea thought she had seen it wrong and checked several times before turning to him in astonishment.
He flipped through the channels so quickly just to specifically find a drama starring Isabella Taylor?
“Orion, do you like Isabella’s shows?”
She frowned at him, forgetting to chew the meat in her mouth, while he looked puzzled, “What?”
“You didn’t know Isabella stars in this show?”
“No”
“Then why did you skip all those channels and settle on hers?”
“It’s coincidence.”
Orion put down the remote.
He had just managed to get his heartbeat back to normal.
Seeing him put down the remote, Xanthea had her eyes widened even more.
He was denying it, yet deciding to keep watching!
“You, you’re not…
“No, that can’t be right…”
She murmured in confusion and shock.
Orion looked at her, puzzled, just as she suddenly said sternly, “If you don’t like it, change the channel!”
“Okay.”
Orion picked up the remote, ready to change the channel.
Seeing this, Xanthea let out a relieved sigh, and felt the taste returning to the meat in her mouth.
Whoever she didn’t like, her best friend couldn’t either!
