Searching For You 78 Do You Cook?

It was then a voice called out to them. The two girls looked towards the sh.o.r.e and saw Chong in the water up to chest high waving and calling out to them to go eat some seafood he had mentioned earlier.

The girls looked at each other, and Su Na asked, "I'm still full from lunch but if you want to eat, we can go."

Yu Sha replied, "Of course, I never say no to free food even when I'm full. Let's go." As she nudge her head gesturing for them to go.

With that the two best friends swam back to sh.o.r.e and walked to the cliff.

When they arrived on the cliff, Jake called them, "Yu Sha and Su Na, come help yourself. Most of these are ready. The men made some catch earlier and we cooked it."

A man named Cheng interrupted, "Except Tong over there by the cliff, still waiting for his first catch, hahaha…"

Tong who was over by the cliff overheard, a little short and stubby standing by the cliff with his pool replied irritably, "Tsk.. Just wait. I'll make the biggest catch of my life." Looking like he poured all his luck into the fis.h.i.+ng pole.

The good smell of the food instantly make Yu Sha hungry. "Yum.. this looks good." Yu Sha grabbed a fish stick and took a bite. The fish tasted so good, "Mm.. this is so good, rich in flavor with a tint of curry taste. Do we have a chef on board here?"

A man named Xing, with a lightly darker skin tone and somewhat scrawny on Yu Sha's team replied humbly, "Well, we borrowed some ingredients from the Cruise kitchen and several of us made something small, but I would have to say Jake, Cheng and I made most of them."

Yu Sha nodded her head impressed, "Xing, you cook?"

He bashfully replied, "Just a little."

Jake commented, "Xing is just being humble. He's a great cook. In fact cooking is his hobby."

Cheng then asked, "Miss Yu Sha, do you cook?"

Her face looked stone as she glanced at each of them while chewing on her food slowly, "Well, I can fixed a simple sandwich?" She wasn't sure if that was considered cooking, so instead of replying she asked.

The men chuckled at Yu Sha's reply. Fixing a simple sandwich is not considered "know how cook."

Cheng turned to Su Na and asked, "Miss Su Na, do you cook?"

Su Na replied confidently, "No one beats me in scramble eggs."

The men laughed at the two girls and then Cheng asked, "So both of you don't cook. You're always together, what if you two get stranded somewhere?"

Yu Sha replied, "We just have to make sure we never put ourselves in that situation. The last time, I tried to make something, I almost burned the house down. Since then, my father doesn't allow me into the kitchen unless it is to get water or something already made in the fridge."

The men's jaws dropped. Here are two of the most brilliant women they've met and known personally. They have it all, look, brain, and skills but they don't know how to cook.

"Are you two from a wealthy family? You certainly don't have the sn.o.bby personality like most wealthy kids are." Cheng asked.

All the men were so eager to hear a little information of the two girls. They all stopped what they're doing and turned their ears to listen.

Su Na quickly replied, "Of course not, we are from the working cla.s.s family. In fact, my family was in poverty at one point when I was very young."

The men were stunned and even admired Su Na more than they already were.

Yu Sha replied, "Well, my family is not exactly poor nor exactly rich?" Yu Sha was not sure how to answer that question. She knew her parents have money, but they have always live humbly. They didn't spoiled her by giving her tangible materials but by giving her their presence, their time, their love and their attentions. Her family didn't live lavishly nor poorly so it was a tough question for her to answer.

"I see because of your fame and since you both don't know how to cook, we thought you two may be from the wealthy elite families. Who would've guesses that both of you are just like us too." Cheng replied.

"Well, it certainly wasn't easy to get to where we are today. I used to go for days without sleep just to keep up my grades. If you want it enough, you can attain it." Su Na replied.

Now the men got a small glimpsed into the women's past. They felt a mixed of emotions at how hard the girls worked to get to where they are today which make them have more respect for the girls.

Suddenly, someone unfamiliar came by with a photography camera and an accent, "Excuse me, may I walk past here to take a few pictures at the corner of the cliff?"

The group turned around. They saw a man with bleached hairs, sungla.s.ses in floral s.h.i.+rt and short pants carrying an expensive camera.

Back at the Prince's suite, Long Kue was on his computer in the balcony. He turned on one of the satellite recorders nearby to find Dao Txu. According to his tracker, Dao Txu seemed to be at the cliff just where Su Na and Yu Sha spoke of earlier. He knew that idiot was up to no good. When he zoomed in the satellite, he saw Dao Txu in disguised get-up interacting with the construction crew.
