Chapter 391 Baby, this tastes...so wonderful
As night falls, the stars are like tiny diamonds inlaid in the deep sky. The moonlight shines through the gauze curtains and sprinkles on the retro wooden dining table, adding a touch of tenderness to this quiet night.
At the two ends of the dining table sat two men. One was Lu Yan, who was gentle and refined, with a playful look in his eyes, and the other was Gu Chen, who had a handsome face but now had a frown on his face and looked a little embarrassed.
There was a subtle tension in the air, as if even the air contained emotions that were about to explode.
"Just that one bite, it was like my taste buds encountered an unprecedented challenge. That taste..."
There was a hint of disbelief in Gu Chen's voice. He shook his head slightly, trying to erase the complicated feelings from his memory.
"It's bitter, spicy, salty, and greasy. What kind of magical food is this?"
After saying this, he gave a helpless smile and spit out the "test product" in his mouth without mercy, with a bit of childish anger in his action.
Seeing this, Lu Yan raised a barely perceptible smile, his deep eyes flashing with a cunning light.
He leisurely picked up the water cup beside him, took a sip, and his eyes fell gently on Gu Chen, as if he could see through all his emotions.
"Baby, isn't this the surprise you carefully prepared?"
His tone was full of teasing, yet it also contained a subtle hint of doting.
Gu Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he suddenly realized and his cheeks unconsciously flushed.
Yes, this dish that looked like a dark cuisine was the dinner he prepared for Lu Yan himself. He wanted to give him a surprise, but it turned out to be a shock.
He cursed himself in his heart, wondering why he had let the seasoning go so out of control. He was simply destroying his own destiny.
"I...I didn't expect it to be so bad!"
There was a hint of annoyance in Gu Chen's voice. He glared at Lu Yan, his eyes filled with both blame and resentment.
"How could you eat it without batting an eyelid and even trick me into trying it?"
Lu Yan chuckled, and that smile was like a spring breeze, warm and inclusive.
"Because I know you made this with your heart. No matter how it tastes, it is my most precious gift."
His words were gentle and firm, as if they could instantly soothe all the anxiety and self-blame in Gu Chen's heart.
When Gu Chen heard this, the anger in his heart instantly dissipated, and was replaced by an indescribable feeling of being moved.
He sighed, sat down in the chair, supported his chin with both hands, stared blankly at the failed dish on the table, and a self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"It tastes terrible. I really am... such a failure."
Seeing this, Lu Yan gently stood up, walked to Gu Chen, leaned over and whispered in his ear:
"In my opinion, you are more tempting than any delicacy. As for this dish, just treat it as a small episode in our love journey, right?"
Gu Chen looked up and met Lu Yan's loving eyes, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He smiled, and his smile was so bright, as if all the haze was dispelled by this smile.
"Okay, let's start over. I won't let you down this time."
......
As the night deepened, the kitchen became busy again.
Gu Chen stood in front of the stove, holding a shovel in his hand, his eyes focused and serious.
This time, he learned from his previous lessons and took every step carefully, fearing that he would make the same mistake again.
Lu Yan acted as an assistant, occasionally handing over ingredients and giving suggestions. The two of them looked particularly harmonious under the dim light.
Time passed quietly, and an enticing aroma gradually filled the kitchen. It was the smell of love, the crystallization of hard work and persistence.
When the last dish was served on the table, Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, a satisfied smile on his face.
He looked at Lu Yan, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
"Try it, it shouldn't make you frown this time."
Lu Yan picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of dish and put it into his mouth, savoring it carefully.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still. He closed his eyes and let the delicious taste slowly bloom on his tongue.
After a moment, he opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with surprise and admiration.
"Baby, this tastes...so wonderful! You did it, you really did."
Upon hearing this, Gu Chen felt so happy that he couldn't express it in words.
He smiled, so happily, as if the whole world became beautiful because of this moment.
They clinked their glasses to celebrate their hard-earned success and their unwavering love.
After dinner, the two sat side by side in front of the window, looking at the starry sky outside, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.
Gu Chen leaned on Lu Yan's shoulder and said softly, "Thank you for always being by my side, supporting me and encouraging me."
Lu Yan gently held Gu Chen's hand and responded softly:
"Because it's you, it's worth it. No matter what the road ahead holds, I will walk it with you."
Under the moonlight, the two figures leaned against each other tightly, as if they had become the most beautiful scenery in the world.
Their love is like this dish that finally succeeds after many twists and turns. Although the process is full of challenges and difficulties, the final result is so sweet and beautiful.
It's late at night, the stars are still bright and the moonlight is still gentle.
On this night full of love, the story of Gu Chen and Lu Yan continues.
They know that the road ahead is still long and there will be more challenges and difficulties waiting for them.
But they also believe that as long as they rely on each other and work together, nothing can stop them from moving forward.
Just like that dish that has experienced failure and restart...
