Chapter 1351: Chapter 1351: Boyfriend in Name Only

"Xiao Bai, did you really come over just to cook for me?" Meng Shuqing teased, eyeing the dishes An Bai bought, all her favorites, she couldn’t help but salivate and said, "You just arrived at Beiyang, the company must be quite busy, right?"

Meng Shuqing proactively stepped forward to help out.

An Bai handed some simple tasks like washing vegetables or peeling garlic to her, and replied, "People are like iron, food is like steel, missing a meal makes you hungry, no matter how busy with work, I still gotta eat."

"What about restaurants and delivery? Why don’t you just eat those?" Meng Shuqing casually asked, back when she was at home, she naturally didn’t need to worry about meals.

After arriving at Beiyang University, Tang Yue worried she might not know how to cook and suggested hiring a cook several times, but Meng Shuqing declined; she didn’t like having strangers in her home.

Besides, the school has a cafeteria, nearby restaurants, and delivery options, she really doesn’t need to worry about food.

"Nothing’s as tasty as home-cooked meals."

An Bai cooked quickly, soon, three dishes and a soup were ready.

Stir-fried beef, pan-fried small yellow croaker, crispy ribs, and three-flavored soup.

Among them, the crispy ribs were something An Bai had prepared earlier in the afternoon, now just ready to be served.

"Xiao Bai, whoever becomes your wife in the future will be lucky to have such good food." Meng Shuqing washed her hands clean, grabbed a crispy rib straight away, munching as she spoke.

She’s had crispy ribs many times, but only the ones An Bai makes suit her taste.

"Delicious." Meng Shuqing ate contentedly.

She hadn’t noticed that when she said ’wife’, An Bai’s gaze deepened significantly, he placed the ribs in front of her and said, "All yours."

Meng Shuqing smiled with beautifully arched eyebrows.

The two of them ate, chatting and laughing, the atmosphere warm and joyful.

"From now on, let’s have dinner together," An Bai directly proposed.

Meng Shuqing was momentarily stunned.

An Bai added, "It’s hard to finish a meal alone, you can come to my place, no need to cook, and I’ll have company while eating, what do you think?"

"Alright." Meng Shuqing’s eyes lit up, having good food cooked for her is definitely great, but...

"What should I pay for the meals with?" Meng Shuqing scrunched her pretty brows together.

An Bai raised his hand and knocked lightly, saying, "If my mom found out I charged you for meals I cooked, she’d probably break my legs! Besides, I don’t know how many meals I’ve had prepared by Aunt Tang when I was a kid, and I never saw Aunt Tang charge me!"

"Meng Shuqing, have you got water on the brain?" An Bai raised an eyebrow.

Meng Shuqing unhappily glared at him and said, "You’re the one with water on the brain!"

"Yes, my home’s beautiful little princess, lovely little fairy, how could she get water on the brain? Must be seeing things." An Bai smoothly followed her words, subtly changing the topic, "What do you think about what I said earlier? I become your shield, so no one bothers you during the four years of university."

An Bai seemed to genuinely think of Meng Shuqing’s well-being, planning to secure the status first, what’s wrong with being a shield?

At least in outsiders’ eyes, they’d be a justified pair.

’Knock’

The door was knocked on.

Meng Shuqing hadn’t figured out how to respond yet when she saw Chu Huaijin come over, bringing a parcel from Aunt Qin filled with food and little gifts from her travels.
