Love Apartment: The All-Around Comedian

Whatever the outcome, please don't be angry, okay?

"Of course, getting angry over such a small thing is no different from being a barbarian, right, Yifei?"

Su Mingyang raised an eyebrow and said meaningfully.

"Yeah, whoever gets angry is a little dog."

Hu Yifei agreed, since... she wouldn't lose anyway.

"Alright, let's each make a new fried rice dish independently and have the competition..."

Su Mingyang smiled slightly, turned to look at Lin Wanyu, and asked, "Wanyu, would you like to rest for a bit?"

"No need, I want to strike while the iron is hot."

Lin Wanyu laughed, "I've just gotten a feel for it, what if I forget it if I take a break?" Su Mingyang nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it now."

"Okay, I'll have Zhanbo start right away."

As Hu Yifei spoke, she turned to go back to 601, but suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, is Zeng Xiaoxian home?"

"Teacher Zeng went out, what happened?"

"Okay, I'll give him a call and ask him to come back and be the referee."

As Hu Yifei spoke, a sly glint flashed in her eyes, and she turned to leave 360.

She's definitely going to win this competition! Su Mingyang frowned, sensing something was off. Could it be that Hu Yifei was trying to bribe Zeng Xiaoxian? "Mingyang, what are you thinking?"

Lin Wanyu asked in confusion.

"Uh, it's nothing."

Su Mingyang came to his senses.

He thought that even if what he thought was true, it didn't matter; he had plenty of ways to deal with it.

"Okay, I'll start now. Mingyang, you can rest on the sofa."

Lin Wanyu said.

"Okay, Wanyu, good luck!"

Su Mingyang raised 4.

7. Raise your fist to show encouragement.

"Uh-huh."

Lin Wanyu smiled, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, are you still going to eat this fried rice? I think the eggs are a bit overcooked."

"Of course, this is Wanyu's first time, so I definitely have to make sure she eats it all, not leaving a single bite."

Su Mingyang joked.

"Uh, to correct you, it was my first time cooking."

Two blushes crept onto Lin Wanyu's face, but she was deeply moved.

"Haha, they're pretty much the same."

Seeing Lin Wanyu's shy expression, Su Mingyang found it quite amusing and happily carried the fried rice to the sofa to enjoy it.

Lin Wanyu shook her head, not thinking too much about it, and started making fried rice.

Chapter 207 This isn't cheating!

Zeng Xiaoxian carried the newly bought bed sheets, duvet covers, bamboo mats, and other items on his way back to Love Apartment.

He had just returned from the hospital and was in a very relaxed mood.

As expected, he had a common cold and was not infected with any special virus.

The thought of his trembling legs in front of the middle-aged female doctor made Zeng Xiaoxian's ears burn.

Those damned cockroaches and rats! They've made him live in constant fear! They're probably sliced ​​up by now. Thinking of this, Zeng Xiaoxian felt a surge of joy. He planned to throw away all the bedding that had been contaminated by the cockroaches and rats when he got back.

Just then, the phone in my pocket rang. I took it out and saw that it was Aunt Hedong calling.

Without thinking twice, he pressed the answer button.

While waiting for the other person to speak, he didn't notice a fist-sized black shadow leaping out and hiding on the newly bought bedding in his hand.

"Hey, Zeng Xiaoxian, where are you now?"

Hu Yifei's loud, boisterous voice came from the phone.

"What happened on your way home?"

"I have something to tell you, it's like this and like this..."

After listening to Hu Yifei's story, Zeng Xiaoxian couldn't help but tease her, "Yifei, did you eat too much? You're trying to teach Mingyang how to cook. With your mediocre skills in making fried rice, you think you can teach Zhanbo? Hahaha!"

"Mind your own business! Get back here and be the referee!"

Hu Yifei was somewhat exasperated.

"Coming right away! I haven't had lunch yet, bye!"

Zeng Xiaoxian said happily.

"Don't hang up yet, I need your help with something."

Hu Yifei stammered.

"What's up"

Zeng Xiaoxian was somewhat surprised. Having known her for so long, this was the first time Hu Yifei had ever asked him for help! "Ahem."

On the phone, Hu Yifei coughed twice and said, "Wait a minute: when it's time to referee, choose the bowl Zhanbo made."

You want me to help you cheat?

Zeng Xiaoxian was stunned.

"Don't put it so harshly. What do you mean by cheating? This is called backroom dealing, you know?"

"How is this any different from cheating?"

Zeng Xiaoxian's lips twitched.

"Of course there's a difference, this is more than that."

Hu Yifei stopped her, "Fine, just tell me if you'll help or not."

Zeng Xiaoxian's eyes darted around, and he said, "This..."

Hu Yifei thought for a moment and said, "How about I make you three days' worth of fried rice?"

You call this a benefit?

He rolled his eyes. Eating Hu Yifei's fried rice for three days straight was practically torture! "What's wrong?"

Hu Yifei was furious when she heard Zeng Xiaoxian's words. "Others want to eat my fried rice but can't even get to eat it! I've let you eat it for three days in a row, that's already like being treated like royalty, okay?"

"Pah!"

Zeng Xiaoxian couldn't help but curse inwardly, saying, "I'm not worthy of this treatment, so I can't help you. Since I'm the referee, I have to be fair and impartial!"

"What kind of fairness or justice is this? Are we even friends? You won't even help me with this little thing?"

Hu Yifei changed her strategy and appealed to emotions.

"But I'm friends with Mingyang and Wanyu too. How am I supposed to face them after doing this?"

Zeng Xiaoxian retorted without hesitation.

"What's there to be afraid of? They won't know."

Hu Yifei said confidently.

"Mingyang is so smart, how could he not be discovered?"

As Zeng Xiaoxian spoke, his eyes darted around, and he continued to advise, "Yifei, since you've proposed this competition, don't resort to these underhanded tactics. You're supposed to be a university professor, openly bribing the proctor is so immoral!"

"How am I being immoral? I just wanted Mingyang to win this once."

Hu Yifei retorted.

“If you’re going to win, then win fair and square. Your current behavior shows that you lack confidence and have already decided that you will lose. You need to have confidence in yourself and in Zhanbo. I believe that your cooking teaching ability is no less than Mingyang’s.”

Zeng Xiaoxian fed Hu Yifei chicken soup.

Anyway... he wouldn't help Hu Yifei cheat no matter what. Su Mingyang had lent him his rent for the past three months, and he felt guilty about helping Hu Yifei in this matter.

Hu Yifei didn't believe him at all and questioned, "You believe me? But you just mocked my skills!"

"Uh"

Zeng Xiaoxian's mind raced, and he laughed, "I wasn't mocking you just now. To be honest, I was just trying to put you down because I was afraid you'd get cocky!"

"Are you telling the truth?"

Hu Yifei was skeptical for a moment, but then she remembered that she had often had the same attitude towards Zeng Xiaoxian before, and she couldn't help but believe it.

"Of course it's true! You're a university professor, how could your culinary teaching skills be lacking?"

Zeng Xiaoxian started flattering him.
