Chapter 21: Little Dragon Girl's Culinary Skills

  Then Tang Xiaosheng left the living room and went to the bathroom to wash up.

  At this time, Guo Xiang held a wooden guitar and slipped in, mysteriously saying in a childish voice: "Big brother, your dream this morning was really timely."

  Tang Xiaosheng was somewhat puzzled, brushing his teeth while asking in return: "Why say that?"

  Guo Xiang explained: "Dragon sister was still doubting your identity last night! Big brother had this dream in the morning, Dragon sister knows you care about her so much, she definitely won't doubt you again."

  Tang Xiaosheng only then realized that Little Dragon Maiden still didn't completely trust him, and turned to ask: "Xiang'er, are you also suspecting of Big Brother's identity?"

  "Of course not."

  "Why don't you suspect?"

  "Because big brother remembered my birthday."

  Tang Xiaosheng smiled and gently patted her head, thinking to himself that this little girl was really simple-minded and easily believed people. In fact, Little Dragon Girl was even simpler, but just happened to be the opposite type, especially not easy to believe people.

  "Xiao'er, why would Long Jie suspect my identity?" Tang Xiaosheng asked casually.

  "Because Big Brother looks too normal." Guo Xiang explained.

  Is your mind normal?

  He was stunned for a moment, and Tang Xiaosheng suddenly understood. After passing through, both Little Dragon Girl and Guo Xiang had spiritual derangement for more than half a year due to the simultaneous possession of two memories in their bodies, while he had only passed through for a few days now, and his spirit looked so normal, obviously a flaw.

  Thinking of this, his heart couldn't help but feel a lump, it was indeed a serious mistake, no wonder Little Dragon Girl would be suspicious.

  "Big brother, don't worry, I've already explained this matter to Long sister and she no longer suspects you." At this time, Guo Xiang spoke up.

  Tang Xiaosheng hastily said: "Really? How do you explain it then?"

  "I told Long Jie that it's possible because Da Gege's soul is particularly strong, after possessing Tang Xiaosheng's body, his consciousness remains relatively clear, so he didn't become mentally disordered," Guo Xiang explained seriously.

  "Did sister Long believe it?"

  "Uh-huh."

  When she said this, Tang Xiaosheng slightly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Guo Xiang helped him to relieve the siege.

  After washing up, Tang Xiaosheng had planned to have instant noodles for breakfast, a habit he had developed over the past few years. However, he was stopped by Little Dragon Girl, who said that instant noodles were bad for his health and decided to cook him a breakfast herself.

  Xiao Longnv is going to cook, this is a rare big deal. Tang Xiaosheng wanted to eat instant noodles very much, but in order to taste Xiao Longnv's cooking skills, he finally decided to endure it.

  Actually, Little Dragon Girl knew her cooking skills were bad, to be exact, she had no cooking skills at all and had never cooked before. She was forcing herself only because of Tang Xiaosheng.

  Until now, she still felt deeply guilty about Tang Xiaosheng's leg injury while filming and wanted to do something as compensation. In the past two days, seeing Tang Xiaosheng being very considerate of her, even spending all his savings to move to a better place for her sake, Little Dragon Girl thought that she shouldn't be aloof anymore and should share some burden with him.

  Last night, she quietly decided that from today on, she would start learning to cook. She used her mobile phone's internet function to look up several recipes online and planned to make them this morning.

  Afterwards, Little Dragon Maiden went to the kitchen to start cooking. She said it was her first time in the kitchen and didn't want anyone watching, so Tang Xiaosheng and Guo Xiang stayed in the living room.

  After nearly two days of recuperation, Tang Xiaosheng's leg injury has recovered about 70-80%, and he plans to go to the film and television city to find a play to shoot today, so he called a group leader surnamed Wang.

  The so-called group head is the person in charge of the mass actors. Generally, ordinary mass actors want to find a play to shoot in the crew, they must go through the group head.

  "Old Wang, I'm Tang Xiaosheng, is there a play being filmed by the crew today?" Tang Xiaosheng asked sincerely.

  "It seems like there isn't any today," Old Wang replied indifferently from the other end of the phone.

  "Even roles without lines or shots are okay." Tang Xiaosheng added.

  "Nor is there."

  "Playing a woman or playing a dead person can also be considered."

  "This doesn't either."

  "What about the props and stuff?"

  "Xiao Tang, if there's a show, I'll contact you again! Something came up and I need to hang up for now... bye..."

  Thus, Tang Xiaosheng ended the first call. There were multiple crews shooting in the film city every day, and afterwards, he dialed several other group leaders' phones.

  What he didn't expect was that the responses he got were surprisingly consistent, with all the crews seemingly not needing extras. This situation rarely happened before, and for a moment, he couldn't understand what was going on.

  Just then, Little Dragon Girl came to the living room with two small bowls and placed them on the dining table, calling out: "Guo'er, Xiang'er, breakfast is ready, come try some."

  Tang Xiaosheng and Guo Xiang were already starving, the two of them hastily gathered around the dining table, eager to know what she had made for breakfast.

  All she saw was a black mass in the bowl, which looked like turtle jelly but didn't seem to be turtle jelly. Guo Xiang stared at it for a long time and couldn't figure out what it was, so he curiously asked: "Long sister, what is this dish?"

  "This is eight-treasure porridge, I made it according to the recipe online, you guys try some."

  "Eight Treasures Porridge?"

  Tang Xiaosheng furrowed his brow, he had never seen eight-treasure porridge as black as charcoal before. He picked up a spoon and scooped it into the bowl, instantly smelling a faint burnt smell. Then he scooped out a small black dot and asked, "Long'er, what is this little black thing?"

  The little dragon girl leaned over, carefully identified it for a moment, and blinked her beautiful eyes, answering: "It's red bean."

  Tang Xiaosheng almost burst out laughing and asked: "How can red beans be black?"

  Xiaolongnv's face changed slightly, her expression a bit awkward, and she replied in a weak voice: "I accidentally overcooked it."

  "Oh, it's okay if it's a bit mushy, the porridge is even more delicious when it's mushy." Tang Xiaosheng comforted, then scooped up another spoonful of porridge and found an even bigger black spot. He exclaimed: "This red bean is really big!"

  Xiao Long Nu slightly hesitated and explained: "This is not a red bean, it's a peanut."

  It seems that this bowl is indeed eight-treasure porridge, but it's a bit difficult to identify. Although the porridge is overcooked, after all, it's Xiaolongnu's first time cooking, and it's worth encouraging. Tang Xiaosheng and Guo Xiang each picked up their spoons and scooped the porridge into their mouths.

  As soon as the porridge entered his mouth, Tang Xiaosheng felt that the taste was completely wrong and immediately asked: "Long'er, how much salt did you put in?"

  Xiao Long Nu frowned and said, "The recipe online says to add a small amount of salt, but I don't know how much is considered a small amount, so I just scooped out five spoons of salt. How's the taste? Is it salty enough?"

  Tang Xiaosheng opened his mouth, wanting to speak but hesitating.

  Pickles aren't even this salty.

  Seeing him like this, Little Dragon Girl felt that something was off: "Guo'er, isn't the flavor too light? Do you need me to add two more spoons of salt?"

  "No need, no need, the flavor is just right." Tang Xiaosheng hastily stopped and asked, "Long'er, haven't you tried this porridge before?"

  Xiao Long Nu said faintly: "I don't have much of an appetite, I don't want to eat. You all go ahead and eat first, there's still some left in the pot." After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

  She had just left, and Tang Xiaosheng and Guo Xiang immediately got up from their seats and rushed to the trash can in the living room, spitting out the still-unswallowed eight-treasure porridge from their mouths.

  "Big brother, the eight-treasure porridge cooked by Long sister is really too salty, I couldn't swallow it."

  Tang Xiaosheng couldn't swallow it either, but after all, it was Little Dragon Girl's first time cooking, and he couldn't crush her confidence. So he conspired with Guo Xiang, and together they secretly poured four-fifths of the Eight Treasures Porridge from their bowls into the trash can, then returned to the dinner table, pretending nothing had happened.

  A moment later, Little Dragon Girl brought a pot of porridge back to the living room and saw that the two bowls were almost empty. She asked strangely: "Guo Er, how did you finish eating so quickly?"

  Tang Xiaosheng lied and said: "This porridge tastes good, so I ate it quickly."

  Xiao Long Nu's face lit up with joy: "Since it's delicious, you two eat more, I'll fill your bowls again." After speaking, she scooped the ladle and refilled their bowls.

  Tang Xiaosheng and Guo Xiang were taken aback, for the first time in their lives feeling that eating was such a challenging task.

  "Wait a minute, I have something to tell you." At this time, Little Dragon Girl sat down and said softly.

  Tang Xiaosheng quickly put down his spoon and listened to her.

  Xiao Long Nu said slowly: "Xia Bai now knows our relationship, I think he won't give up easily."

  Tang Xiaosheng didn't take it seriously and casually said: "What can he do if he doesn't give up, emotional things are forced anyway."

  Little Dragon Girl shook her head: "Things are not that simple, this is not just a matter of emotions, but also related to the issue of who will inherit the Long's Group."

  Long Tianhao has only one daughter and one son. His son, Long Feihong, is lazy and aimless, doing nothing all day, a typical prodigal son who cannot take on important responsibilities. Therefore, it is highly likely that the successor of the Long Group will be Long Tianhao's son-in-law.

  In other words, whoever marries Long Xiaoxue (Little Dragon Girl) will likely be the future heir of the Long Corporation.

  If Xiaobai and Longnü cancel their engagement, what Xiaobai loses is not just a woman, but the tens of billions of assets of the Long family. Understanding this interest relationship, Longnü naturally has more worries.

  As the saying goes, a cornered dog will jump over a wall. For a family business worth tens of billions, one may resort to extreme measures. Xia Bai might stop at nothing to deal with Tang Xiaosheng in order to get Xiao Longnv.

  "Dragon son, don't worry! Now is a society ruled by law, I think Xia Bai shouldn't dare to do anything." Tang Xiao Sheng calmly analyzed. Although he said so, but in his heart, he actually had no bottom line either. For the benefit disputes between these wealthy families, he originally didn't understand much about them.

  "By the way, to be on the safe side, I think you should learn more martial arts for self-defense." Longwangnu slowly said, "Your internal strength has already made some small progress. From today on, I will start teaching you the 'Nine Yin True Classics' point-hitting chapter of martial arts."
