Silence. Utter silence.
Disbelief was the only expression that was etched on the face of everyone present in the room including Xiao Jiao and the three spirits. They looked at Shao Hui and then turned to look at the hybrid who lived far from the modern.
Maybe their gazes were too fervent but Feng Jue shook his head and then whispered, " Don't look at me like that, I can cook and clean. And even though I have no water, I know the boiling point of water... I am smart caw." Though he wanted to ask Mo Qiang where she got the water seeing how Wen Gui looked like the demon reincarnate, he dared not to say anything.
For now, keep his mouth closed. He would talk about water later.
On the other hand, Wen Gui was so angry that his blood pressure was shooting through the roof. Boiling..water? This mer destroyed his precious kitchen just because he was boiling water?
" You… Shao Hui… You…. Ah, my neck," Wen Gui rubbed his neck as he pulled a nerve too hard after grinding his teeth.
" Father, you should calm down a little. It's not good for your health," Yin Fu hurriedly helped Wen Gui onto a chair and handed him a glass of water while signalling Shao Hui to explain what happened just now he did not want Wen Gui's temper to hike up even more or else it would not be good for either of them!
Even Xie Jie urged Shao Hui to speak up, the matter was not serious but everyone knew that Wen Gui liked cooking and he treated the kitchen like his child. Even if the dishes cooked were bland, the kitchen was supposed to be spotless! Now there was a hole in its ceiling, and Xie Jie was afraid that this matter was not going to come to an end.
Shao Hui pursed his lips and then twiddled with his thumbs before saying, " I did not know how to boil water, there is no information on the internet. So, I just followed the steps, I turned the gas on and then placed the pot filled with water on it…" he trailed off causing Wen Gui to look at him with a predatory gaze.
Wen Gui narrowed his eyes and asked, " And then what?"
" And then Master Cao called, he sent me the script for the new reality show that I am taking part in and I started to read it… before I knew it, I forgot that the pot was on the stove," Shao Hui replied with a guilty look on his face. " But I did not know that it would explode, how could a pot of water explode anyway? Is there something wrong with the water?"
Everyone else: "…" Something is wrong with your brain!
" There is nothing wrong with the water," when Mo Qiang heard Shao Hui's complaint she was speechless. So the water had something mixed in it but you cannot be at fault?
