Why Couldnt Lin Wan Learn to Cook

The people eating at the dining table had no time to pay attention to the comments in the live broadcast room.

“If its convenient for all of you, why dont we have lunch together tomorrow afternoon” suggested Shen Man. “We can invite the other two families as well. Itll be a nice gathering.”

Li Yanchen did not say anything. This was the first time he had ever attended a family gathering. He was still feeling very surprised and confused. He had taken Lin Wan to be an introvert who wasnt very willing to socialize. He thought she would never have agreed to have meals with another family more than once.

However, he was wrong. Lin Wan had willingly agreed to Lin Tongs request. He found out that she had also agreed with Shen Man to eat at their house for the remaining days.

She looked alright. It didnt seem like she was suffering from depression anymore. Even when Li Yanchen tried to mention the comments on the bullet screen, she shrugged indifferently.

In the past, she had not cared about the world because she had been unable to escape her own. She had no family or friends in Yun City. In the present, she still did not care about the world around her, but she was no longer trying to run away. She seemed more carefree. She looked confident in herself and did not care what others said about her. This was different.

“Of course. That sounds great.” Lin Wan was the first to answer yet again.

Li Yanchen, along with the rest at the table, were stunned. Lin Wan was very straightforward.

“Wouldnt that be too much trouble for you” asked Xia Mo politely.

“No, no. Its just one dish and one pot.” Lin Tong had always respected his wifes decision.

“Then Ill be your helper tomorrow,” Xiao Tianlin said, embarrassed.

“Thats a good idea. Its decided then. I will go to the two houses and invite them for tomorrow after dinner,” said Shen Man.

Lin Wan kicked Li Yanchens leg under the table, telling him to agree too.

Li Yanchen put down his chopsticks. “Alright Ill come over early in the morning to help as well. My wife doesnt know how to cook.”

“Alright. You men cook and we will rest and wait for the meal,” Shen man joked to avoid the awkward atmosphere.

However, the fans were no longer calm.

[The laziest person has the most straightforward answer.]

Lin Wan wanted to be polite, but no matter how much she tried, people still took it the wrong way. Li Yanchen, on the other hand, always failed at being polite. He had almost screwed it up in the afternoon, too.

Li Zexuan nudged his father with his elbow.He was a top-class business tycoon, how could he go to other peoples houses for free food Wasnt the purpose of the show to let them experience ordinary lives Ordinary people cooked their own food! They had learnt to chop firewood and pick vegetables. Why couldnt Lin Wan learn to cook

“Dad, we can learn how to cook on our own. Itll be more meaningful that way.” Li Zexuan just couldnt stand Lin Wan being so lazy.

Yesterdays grudge was still alive all because of a sausage.

Li Zekai also echoed,” Jiejie hasnt eaten the food that Auntie and Dad make. Jiejie wants to eat.”

Lin Wan glanced at the child who was actively rejecting tomorrows meal. “Guoguo and the others are leaving tomorrow. This is the last time we can spend together. Tomorrow night, you can definitely eat the dinner your father cooks”

[Look, Lin Wans words are so eloquent. Shes trying to keep herself clean. Its not her who would cook. It will be their dad.]

[Xuanxuan suggested that he cook for himself, but his parents didnt give him the chance. So, fans, its not that our Xuanxuan is not down-to-earth, its that he cant perform.]

[Yes, I can prove that Xuanxuan was dragged here.]

[Wheres Li Zexin Jiejie has already expressed his opinion, why isnt he saying anything He only knows how to eat.]

[He was so fierce yesterday. Whats the situation Why didnt he act up today]

[He is a foodie. Cant you see that hes gnawing on a chicken leg Hes probably afraid that he wont have any more to eat later.]

“What do you think, dad” Li Zekai asked Li Yanchen.

“Group activity, active participation.” Li Yanchen had probably not expected himself to say something like that. Was he siding with Lin Wan indirectly

“Oh, okay. Ill be there if dad is.” Li Zekai grinned, revealing two baby teeth.

Li Zexin and Li Zexuan didnt agree. But they kept their mouths shut.

Seeing Li Yanchen was so willing, Shen Man was elated. She felt like their two families were friends now. If she had any trouble with her work in the future, he might help her, too.

“Ill make some cakes for everyone tomorrow morning. Do you all have any flavors or type of cake in mind” asked Xia Mo. “There is only a limited amount of flour so I can only make small cakes for you.”

“Auntie, can I have a Happy Birthday cake” asked Li Zekai happily. “Even though its not my birthday yet, I want to pretend it is and blow out the candle with daddy.”

Every year, Assistant Qin would book a few tables for him at the hotel for his birthday. From the cake to the cuisines to the emcee and even the birthday presents, he was in charge of everything. Although the birthday party was always grand, it seemed very empty. If they were lucky, they saw Li Yanchen when the birthday banquet was over. Most of the time, they would not even meet him.

“Me too! I have never cut a cake with daddy on my birthday,” said Li Zexin, lowering his head. “He always arrives very late at night.”

Li Zexuans case was the same. But he didnt dare say it aloud. He didnt want to entertain Xia Mos question at all.

He was a top-notch celebrity. Even without his fathers birthday wishes, he still had millions of fans wishing him well. He did not lack support. He was in his first year of high school and had already passed the stage where he needed his fathers affection. All he wanted was Li Yanchens acknowledgement, not his affection.

“Ah Big brother, your parents dont stay with you in your birthday” Lin Guoguo asked in disbelief. “Every year on my birthday, my mother buys me a floral dress and a pretty cake. And father buys me a Rubriks cube.”

“Mr. Li is probably too busy. Children, youll understand in the future. Sometimes one needs to work hard, too hard, to support their children,” explained Lin Tong. He had only one child and Li Yanchen had three. It must be hard to be everywhere at once.

Lin Wan didnt say a word. She felt that she was in the same situation as Li Zexuan and the rest.

She couldnt remember if she had ever celebrated her birthday properly. When she was young, her grandmother would buy a palm-sized cake and a small candle. The cake cost 5 Yuan. After that, she and her grandmother had to live on porridge and nothing else for a few days.

Lin Wans life had been too tragic. Even her birthday wasnt a happy one because they had to sacrifice meals of a few days for a cake, if they could even afford one. She felt that children shouldnt lack love. She realized that Li Yanchen was really so harsh to his own children. His wife was no longer around. His children didnt have a mother.Shouldnt he give double the love and affection to his children in such a circumstance
