Chapter 132
After the two of them came downstairs, Simon went straight to the kitchen.
“Huh? Are you going to cook at home?” Marina followed him in confusion.
“What do you want to eat? Just tell me.” Simon opened the fridge and looked at the ingredients.
He had got everything he needed in there.
“Are you going to cook for me?” When Marina heard this, her slender body leaned against the wall.
There was even a hint of doubt in her eyes.
“What? You don’t trust my cooking?” Simon understood what she meant.
That’s not it. I just feel that cooking is quite troublesome.” Marina glanced at the pots and pans and felt her head begin to
ache.
She could complete a lot of unimaginable coursework, but the only thing she couldn’t master was cooking.
In the past, when she just joined the army, those people saw that she looked quite small and skinny.
They assumed that she didn’t have much potential, so they arranged for her to be in the cookhouse.
However, on the first day, the entire company of soldiers kept having diarrhea.
The next day, all of them had food poisoning.
On the third day, as soon as the soldiers saw her standing in the window, they turned around and ran with no hesitation.
In the words of Brendon, not only was her food poisonous, but it tasted unbelievably bad.
They would rather eat grass than eat her food..
However, it was also because of this that she had the chance to train with them later.
Therefore, she wouldn’t force others to do the things she didn’t want to do.
Marina didn’t know how to cook, nor would she ask others to cook.
“It’s not troublesome at all. This is something that can quickly calm your nerves.” Simon had a different opinion than
Marina.
He picked out some ingredients from the fridge, rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, turned on the tap, and began to wash the ingredients.
His fingers were long and slender. When he washed the vegetables and fruits, it always looked easy on the eye.
As expected, pretty people looked good no matter what they were doing.
They looked so stunning even when they were just washing vegetables.
After washing the ingredients, Simon picked a kitchen knife.
Then, he began to deal with the ingredients.
Simon was really good with knives.
He might act lazily, but he used his knife really neatly.
His movements were too fast to be caught by the eye.
“Your knife skills are much better than that chef before.” Marina praised him
“You can have a rest in the living room first. The meal will be ready in about half an hour.” Simon did not stop what he was doing.
People wouldn’t relate a guy like Simon to the kitchen at all.
But for some reason, he fitted perfectly in the kitchen when he stood there.
Moreover, every step was so orderly. She could tell that he had cooked before.
“I’m fine over here.” Marina felt that such a scene was probably not something that could be seen every day. Naturally, she did not want to miss it.
Simon did not insist. He asked her to leave the kitchen only because he was afraid that the kitchen would be too smoky.
Since she liked it, it didn’t matter if she stayed.
Just as Marina was focused on admiring Simon’s cooking, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang.
Marina lazily took out her phone and glanced at the caller ID. Her slender fingers slowly slid across the screen.
The call went through.
“What’s the matter?” Marina’s tone was as calm as ever, but her eyes never left Simon.
“Bro, didn’t you tell me that your house is very safe? Do you know that I almost died in your house just now?” The voice of Quantum came from the other end of the phone.
“What did you say?” When Marina heard this, the lazy expression on her face instantly became serious.
“Don’t tell me you took someone else’s money and planned to betray me!” Quantum sounded breathless on the other end of the phone.
It sounded like he was running.
“Where are you now?” Marina asked in a deep voice.
“I don’t know where I am either. Ever since I escaped from your house, I’ve been running.” Quantum looked around. The surroundings were all unfamiliar.
It was his first time coming to Janeborough.
After all, he had too many enemies here. If not for the fact that Marina was here, he would never have come here in his life.
“Find a safe place and wait for me. I’ll be right there.” After saying that, Marina hung up the phone and looked up at Simon in the kitchen.
“I might not be able to eat with you today. I have something to deal with.”
Simon had just finished dealing with the ingredients and was preparing to cook.
Looking at Marina’s serious expression, he did not ask her to stay.
He only nodded. “Do you need me to drive you there?”
“No need for that, just lend me your car.” She had come back in the Simon car previously. Her own car was still at the
entrance of the concert hall.
Simon handed her his key without saying another word.
“Thank you.” Marina took it and turned to leave.
She did not stop at all.
Meanwhile, Simon walked her all the way to the car and watched her disappear down the street.
Perhaps he had made a mistake and shouldn’t have cooked this time.
The last time, he had also taken her out for a meal. Then, she suddenly had something on and left.
It was the same this time.
It seemed that they would have to exclude the possibility of eating together when it came to dating in the future.
Marina directly located Quantum’s current location after getting into the car.
After confirming her destination, she drove over.
When Marina found Quantum, he was holding Phoenix and hiding in an abandoned sewer.
“Bro!” Quantum immediately crawled out of the sewer when he saw Marina. With a sad face, he was ready to pounce on her.
Marina was speechless.
“Don’t come any closer!” Marina raised her hand to stop him.
Although the sewer was abandoned, there was still a lot of dirt inside.
No one knew how long Quantum had been hiding inside, but his entire body was tainted with a strong terrible smell.
Moreover, Marina’s nose was more sensitive to smells than ordinary people’s.
Therefore, Quantum was like a walking poisonous gas bomb to her.
Quantum put on a sad face.
Phoenix, who was in Quantum’s arms, also looked at Marina with an aggrieved expression. “Master…”
It was one thing for this dirty human to be dirty, but now, he had even dirtied it.
It was crying out loud.
“Master, I’m not clean anymore.”
Quantum was shocked to hear that.
“Hey, don’t say things that can cause misunderstandings!” Quantum immediately lowered his head and said to Phoenix in
his arms.
