My Stunning Beauty Special Agent Wife-Chapter 853 - 852: A Bad Omen (1/2)
Hearing Wu Qiaoyun say there were no rooms left, Pei Yuxin hurriedly said, "Isn't the room next door..."
"Are you stupid? My cousin is coming to study in a few days. Won't she have to live here? My aunt has called me several times already. You can't let a girl sleep in the living room, can you?" Wu Qiaoyun rolled her eyes.
Then she turned to Yang Chen and said, "I assume you don't mind, handsome!"
"No worries!" Yang Chen said casually, "I can sleep anywhere."
As far as sleeping goes, Yang Chen is not picky.
In the past, Yang Chen has slept on grass, in the desert, on rocks, on tree branches, in swamps, and even among piles of corpses. For him, there's no place where he can't rest.
All he needs is a base, and he doesn't care about the rest.
The meal was ready soon.
The ingredients were simple, and so was the preparation.
However, there was still an irresistible aroma wafting out, making Wu Qiaoyun and Pei Yuxin's appetites grow.
Yang Chen hadn't had a proper meal in a long time either, and the enticing smell from the dishes was making him restless.
The three of them sat at the dining table, staring at the table full of dishes, swallowing hard.
"Did you really make this?" Pei Yuxin asked incredulously. It was hard to believe that the man who stood in front of her not long ago, looking like a homeless man and reeking of sourness, had cooked this table of colorful and fragrant dishes.
Wu Qiaoyun placed her hands on her chest, her eyes, wearing contact lenses, constantly throwing flirty glances at Yang Chen, "Dear, I have to say, even if you have amnesia, your cooking skills are more than enough for you to be a chef in a restaurant!"
"A chef?" Yang Chen raised an eyebrow slightly and nodded, "That's actually a good idea."
Yang Chen quite likes cooking. He not only likes to cook, but also enjoys making coffee, brewing tea, and making wine...
He's a person with a taste for life and enjoys pursuing a refined lifestyle.
Thinking about becoming a chef is actually a pretty good choice.
"I'm starting!" Pei Yuxin couldn't hold back any longer and picked up her chopsticks, ready to dig in.
"Go ahead and eat!" Yang Chen said.
He was starving too.
"Delicious!" As Pei Yuxin took a bite, she almost swallowed her tongue.
Although Yang Chen's cooking may not be as delicious as restaurant food, due to limited seasoning, the taste was excellent—healthy, hygienic, and most importantly, it had the taste of home.
Something that restaurant food cannot provide.
Wu Qiaoyun also praised, "I've decided that you'll be in charge of cooking at home from now on!"
Yang Chen smiled slightly, "Happy to serve!"
Pei Yuxin and Wu Qiaoyun seemed very happy because this meant they could often enjoy such delicious meals in the future.
But gradually, the smiles on their faces began to fade.
Because from the first bowl of rice Yang Chen ate, to the second bowl... the fifth bowl... until the eighth bowl...
A total of eight bowls!
And most of the food on the table ended up in Yang Chen's stomach.
Yang Chen looked at the leftover rice in the pot, glanced at the two, and asked, "Do you still want some?"
Both shook their heads quickly.
Yang Chen chuckled, picked up the pot, and said, "Then I won't be polite."
Saying this, he directly poured the remaining rice into his bowl.
The two stared at Yang Chen eating with surprise, deeply wondering how much Yang Chen's stomach could hold.
They even suspected that his family might have thrown him out because he ate too much...
However, Pei Yuxin didn't care about such things. She wasn't going to think less of Yang Chen just because he ate more, so she stood up to do the dishes.
Yang Chen quickly said, "Leave it here; it's my job."
"But..." Although Pei Yuxin didn't do housework often, she always insisted on doing such simple tasks herself.
Wu Qiaoyun stopped Pei Yuxin and said, "Let him do it!"
Because Wu Qiaoyun knew that if Yang Chen wasn't given the chance to do things, he might not feel comfortable staying.
Since they agreed that work would cover the rent, there needed to be tasks. This way, things wouldn't become awkward due to personal feelings.
At that moment, Pei Yuxin's phone rang.
Pei Yuxin went to answer it.
Wu Qiaoyun leaned towards Yang Chen, stared at him, and asked, "Tell me, was it because you ate too much that your family kicked you out?"
Upon hearing this question, Yang Chen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
At this moment, Pei Yuxin said, "I see. I'll be over right now!"
Wu Qiaoyun frowned, turned around, and asked seriously, "Yuxin, is it the project from yesterday?"
Pei Yuxin nodded slightly, her mood a bit downcast, "Director Chen wants me to go over and discuss it again."
"Discuss my ass!" Wu Qiaoyun exploded with a swear word, "That revealing ad they want you to shoot would ruin you! You've always had a pure and aloof image, and this will destroy it. How would you survive in the industry after this? Today they'll have you take off this piece, and tomorrow another piece, until you have no dignity left, just becoming those men's toy! Why should you comply? Better not to work than let them dictate you like that!"
"Oh, it's not that serious," Pei Yuxin lowered her head slightly, "Director Chen said we could negotiate a bit as the client specifically requested me. He said it could be a bit less revealing."
"He's just fooling innocent girls like you! 'A bit less revealing,' he's just asking you to compromise! That's bullshit! No way! Don't go!" Wu Qiaoyun said angrily.
Yang Chen finished eating, looked at them, and without getting involved, quietly went to wash the dishes.
"Also, I suspect those three thugs yesterday might have been hired by Director Chen! Only then could he make you shed your aloof image! I'm telling you, you must stick to your principles on this, or he will have you dancing in his palm! Last time I was at your company, I knew Director Chen had no good intentions for you!" Wu Qiaoyun said furiously.
With Wu Qiaoyun's words, Pei Yuxin began to hesitate.
However, the house she bought relied on her salary for mortgage payments. If she didn't go this time and lost her job, she probably wouldn't be able to pay the mortgage.
Wu Qiaoyun's offer of free accommodation didn't include rent; it just meant she was responsible for utilities and other household supplies.
Having weathered life, Wu Qiaoyun understood Pei Yuxin's thoughts, as Pei Yuxin had complained to her about this more than once before.
After thinking about it, Wu Qiaoyun looked towards Yang Chen, who was washing dishes, and her eyes lit up. She snapped her fingers and said, "Got it!"
Yang Chen lifted his head, noticing the excitement sparkling in Wu Qiaoyun's eyes, feeling an ominous premonition...
