Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability Chapter 1696: Will Never Give Up

Chapter 1696: Chapter 1696: Will Never Give Up

He furrowed his brows as he watched Gu Qingyu, asking her, while the corner of his eye caught several guards hurrying over. Seeing Gu Qingyu in such a state, the disdain in their eyes grew even more apparent.

He closed his eyes momentarily, really wanting to strangle this disgraceful woman to death.

“Gu Qingyu, what trouble are you stirring up now?”

“How is it me stirring up trouble?”

Gu Qingyu’s eyes widened at his question, and she pointed an accusing finger at a servant coming out of the kitchen.

“It’s clearly him, it’s him who bullied me. They… they are too presumptuous. I just wanted to cook some food for myself, so what’s the issue with that? Without uttering a word, they just threw me out. What do they mean by this?

You all, even if you don’t back me up, that’s fine, but still, you blame me. Now, the one thrown into the water isn’t them, it’s me!”

She felt extremely wronged. Being thrown out sopping wet was bad enough, but then to also get reprimanded by her own senior fellow sect member, what was the meaning of this?

Who had she provoked? Why was everything her fault?

“You cook?”

Brother Zhen chuckled lightly, his arms crossed as he watched Gu Qingyu.

To someone like Gu Qingyu, who was raised fragile and delicate, not accustomed to the barest ch.o.r.es, cooking was a joke. Was she kidding him?

“Can you even distinguish salt from sugar? Do you know what the various seasonings in the kitchen are used for? Do you know how to cook rice so that it turns into a meal instead of being blasted into popcorn?”

He asked.

“I… you…”

Gu Qingyu’s face flushed red with embarra.s.sment.

Indeed, she knew nothing about these things, but couldn’t she just take the food prepared by the kitchen staff and serve it to the guards? As long as she didn’t confess, who would go and check if the food was actually made by her?

Was there any need to make her sound so incompetent?

“I may not know how to cook, but I’m hungry. Isn’t it okay for me to come and grab something to eat?” she asked, taking a deep breath.

“Hmmph.”

Brother Zhen scoffed coldly.

“Gu Qingyu, I have warned you not to cause trouble anymore, or else, don’t blame me for not considering the bonds between our fellow sect members.”

With that, he turned and left, taking all the junior fellow sect members with him, leaving only Gu Qingyu behind, s.h.i.+vering and hugging herself in her drenched state.

Gu Qingyu was utterly dumbfounded.

What had she done wrong again, without revealing what she planned to do next, how had she upset Brother Zhen again?

Did she have to go hungry for the next few days?

“What kind of people are these, really…”

“If you want to eat, why don’t you cook for yourself? Why go ordering others around?”

Some guards who enjoyed the spectacle commented among themselves as they left after Brother Zhen and the others.

And listening to their words, Gu Qingyu was all the more dumbfounded.

Was it her who didn’t want to cook, who wanted to order others around? It was clearly those servants who threw her out without any reason!

However, thanks to Brother Zhen’s reminder, she realized her lack of skills. Cooking was impossible for her; she had been pampered since childhood, never having set foot in a kitchen.

Cooking was out of the question.

“Just you wait and see!”

Without relying on the kitchen, she refused to believe she couldn’t do anything; she would absolutely not give up.

With that thought, she decided to first change out of her wet clothes before finding a way to get close to those around Xiang Qiyan.

“Worse comes to worst, I’ll catch fish and grill them. Grilling fish and meat, surely that’s acceptable, right?”
