Chapter 912 Cooking for Her . . . . § Seeing Zane like this, Bianca's head was throbbing.
There were plenty of ingredients in the I fridge, and it must be said that Seth had ' prepared them according to his understanding of Bianca's taste. So, most of the food in the fridge was basically what Bianca liked to eat.
Bianca was speechless. Glancing at the time on her wristwatch, she frowned and looked at the man in the open kitchen, who was skillfully handling the kitchen utensils.
Bianca remarked, "I didn't expect you to know how to use those things." "Natalie said you like homemade food, but you're not good at cooking." So, when Zane came to Weiss Town, he cooked almost every day. After two
months of practice, even a cooking idiot like him would improve his skills.
At that moment, Bianca didn't know what to say. There was a dull feeling in her chest.
I "I'made chicken soup to help you with "your recovery," Zane said.
Bianca replied, "I don't need it!" "You've lost a lot of weight, probably . about ten kilograms." Bianca was tall, so getting too thin made her look like a stick.
Bianca didn't want to talk to him, so she ignored him.
And when Zane observed her silence, there was a hint of indulgence in his eyes.
Dinner was very grand. In addition to the chicken soup, he also made things she liked to eat. The dishes were familiar, as they were also the ones Natalie used to
cook. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
» Since going to Simeria, she had almost forgotten what she liked. Or rather; her likes didn't really matter.
Zane asked, "Why aren't you eating?" "I'm not very hungry." "Are you sick? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?" "No need!" Bianca's tone was heavier, showing some impatience.
Zane asked, "Is it because I'm here that you have no appetite?" "Yes!" Zane was speechless. Obviously, he hadn't expected Bianca to be so direct.
Bianca looked at him and said, "That's enough!" Her tone was so cold and distant. It was as if they had never had a relationship,
+ and he was a complete stranger.
> This sense of distance caused Zane to feel ~ aslight tightness in his chest.
"Bia." I "Don't call me that!" "You should eat something first." The man seemed to ignore her correction.
Bianca insisted, "I need to talk to you about something!" Finally, she got straight to the point. She obviously didn't want to continue staying with Zane. She just wanted to settle things quickly. While she appeared impatient, Zane was the complete opposite.
He looked at her indulgently and said, "Eat first, alright?" "You..." "You know I don't really like talking
wv TI BOUNUS , business while eating!" > Bianca was speechless, and her anger ¢ surged again. She has to admit that what I Zane said was true. Even when things were so serious back in Simeria, he rarely brought up those unpleasant matters during meals. It was as if eating should be arelaxed affair for him. EEN "Go ahead and eat, okay?" The man's tone became even more indulgent when he saw that she wasn't picking up her utensils, and this time, Bianca didn't resist any further.
Finally, she picked up the utensils.
Zane's cooking skills were really good.
From just a bite, Bianca could clearly taste Natalie's touch in the food.
"Did you learn from Natalie?" : I It seemed that only Natalie could create such a flavor, It was a taste that couldn't be found outside. Even if one found the I
best home-cooked dishes, it was rare to achieve such a taste.
Zane nodded. "Yeah." Bianca scoffed. "I can't believe she bothered with you!" As she said this, she was huffing.
Looking at Bianca like this, the man's eyes became even more indulgent. It was as if she was acting like a child.
Seeing him looking at her as if she were a child, Bianca, who was already somewhat angry, now found it harder to suppress her anger.
Throughout the meal, the man barely ate.
He was focused on just taking care of Bianca until it was over.
"I really don't want to eat anymore," Bianca said.
I This was probably the most she had eaten since coming here, even more than when
Nancy grilled meat for her before. She ate more because it was rare to encounter food that suited her taste. 9 But now, she had eaten even more than that! I Without Nancy and Zane, Bianca's meals "were probably mostly hot pot and ‘ noodles.
""Have some more soup." , "I don't need to eat so much at night." "They say that so that people who have gained weight will eat less at night!" If one was too fat, eating so much at night wasn't suitable. But the key issue was that Bianca wasn't fat. So, in Zane's eyes, it was natural for her to eat more.
In the end, Bianca couldn't do anything.
The chicken soup was deliciously made.
Bianca wasn't very good at making soup, and she didn't expect Zane to have learned so much from Natalie.
This also showed Zane's efforts for Bianca.
I 9 "Do you want some more?" = "No, I'm stuffed!" Bianca felt bloated.
Although she wasn't worried about gaining weight, a person's stomach was only so big, and right now, she just k wanted to go home and do some exercise! But she hadn't forgotten why she had come here in the first place.
"Now, can we talk?" Zane was silent.
At her words, the tenderness in his eyes seemed to dissipate instantly.
Undoubtedly, he knew why Bianca had come. But such a purpose was something he absolutely couldn't accept, nor would he accept.
"After I clean up,"
"Bianca fell silent. Glancing at the time on her wristwatch, she realized it was I already late. But she wasn't in a rush, so she waited for Zane to tidy up the table first.
Actually, Bianca wasn't good at cleaning up either! Ten minutes later, the entire kitchen and dining room was clean and tidy again.
Bianca looked at Zane and was about to speak, but Zane spoke first. "I know what you're going to say, and I won't agree to it!" Bianca was speechless.
So, that was his answer? Bianca's breath felt heavy. She took a deep breath and said, "There's no point in us continuing like this!" "Who told you it's pointless?" "Zane,"
> "I'm being polite to you only because of d Nat." Because of Natalie? I Because of those years he spent by Natalie's side? Was she only polite to herself because of that? Then what about between them? What about during their time in Simeria? / Looking at Bianca, Zane's face darkened slightly. He didn't like Bianca's attitude towards him.
She was acting as though all their interactions in the past had been wiped clean. She talked as if he would be a total stranger to her right now if it wasn't for the years he had spent working for Natalie.
Yes! Bianca also had this attitude towards
h.__4 hp Malcolm. So, if it weren't for those years with Natalie, she really would consider "hima stranger.
This realization made Zane's blood boil.
"So, without Natalie, we're strangers, I right?" "Yes!" Bianca replied without hesitation.
Zane fell silent.
