Applaud for Happiness

ce, the male lead finds a new lover, and goes through an angsty relationship, before finally exposing Bai Yueguang’s true motive, and ending with a happily ever after?

 

Well, in short, Shen Qi’s task, needless to say, was to change Lu Zhuo, by changing the ending of his bad ending, and give him a successful love, or a successful life, so that his happiness value reaches 100 percent.

 

According to the rules, he did not have a way to meet Lu Zhuo before Bai Yueguang, even if he had long entered the world, he could not immediately meet him, only able to his first half in his selected iidentity.
Finally, waiting eight years for this opportunity.
But the eight-year waiting period was not useless, at least he focused on cooking, and has rarely remembered anything from the last world.

 

According to the timeline of the outline, it is now the seventh year that Bai Yueguang has left, and in another six months, he will appear again, so he must take down Lu Zhuo within six months, or at raise his favorability value to 90%, happiness value is secondary.

 

Master Lu was indeed like what Uncle Shen said.
He looks very kind, wearing a Tang suit (traditional Chinese jacket)2 with a pair of round glasses, while carrying a brush, making him look more benevolent.

 

After listening to Uncle Shen’s introduction of Shen Qi, he smiled and said, “No need to be so formal, you are Ah’Gui’s nephew, just like Zhuozi and his sister, just call me grandpa.”

 

Uncle Shen hurriedly said, “How can this be? Ah’Qi is here to help, it’s only right to call you Master.”

 

Master Lu seemed to like Shen Qi very much and waved his hand: “It’s a new generation now, not the same as before.
Besides, Ah’Qi is your nephew, not like the others.
It’s just a title, not worth anything, and I like Ah’Qi very much.
He looks much better behaved than Zhuozi.”

 

Shen Qi was wearing a simple white shirt with jeans, his face was clear and delicate like the grass had just grown in early spring.
His eyes were clear, and had a cute and bashful expression, a look that the elders would like.

 

When Elder Lu said this, Uncle Shen stopped insisting and smiled and said towards Shen Qi: “Since Elder has given the word, address him quickly.”

 

“Grandpa.” Shen Qi obediently called out.

 

“Good, good.” The more master Lu looked at Shen Qi, the more he liked him, especially when he thought of his own grandson.
“Sit, sit down.
I heard your uncle say that you learned cooking from Master Liang of the Imperial Kitchen before?”

 

“Yes.” Master Lu’s kindness and affability soothed Shen Qi’s previous apprehension and anxiety, and his heart was relieved as he sat down and smiled coyly, “Not really, just helping out.”

 

Just as he was about to become his apprentice, Chef Liang suddenly died, and left his little disciple to learn on his own.

 

Master Lu laughed: “With Master Liang’s skill, being a helper for him is already an accomplishment.
To ask you to cook for me is actually a waste.” 3

 

“No, no, no ……” Shen Qi shook his head repeatedly, “I’m happy to cook for grandpa ……” feeling that this was a little hypocritical, and not convincing enough, he whispered, “and uncle ……”

 

The old man laughed, looked at Uncle Shen, teasingly said: “A’Qi was trying to pay respect to you.
Guess I have benefited from you.”

 

Uncle Shen happily replied: “A’Qi called master ‘grandpa’, naturally he should also be filial and respect you.”

 

Shen Qi nodded and said seriously, “Grandpa, if there is anything you need me to do in the future, just tell me.”

 

If other people had said this, it would have made master Lu feel like they were deliberately trying to flatter him, but Shen Qi’s clear eyes made him feel incredibly sincere and convincing.
Master Lu was so happy that he talked with him until the sun was setting, but because Shen Qi had to go prepare dinner, he had to let him go.

 

Because it was his first meal, Shen Qi made a full effort, afraid that the Lu family was not satisfied, not only losing his own face, but also Uncle Shen’s face.

 

He was only responsible for the three masters of the Lu family, and Uncle Shen, and of course himself, their notes on allergies and dislikes were given from the last chef has long been sorted out to Uncle Shen, Shen Qi studied, and prepared eight dishes.

 

Master Lu had strong teeth, but because he was old, he usually ate more porridge.
Shen Qi prepared him a mushroom and chicken porridge 4, plus a stir-fried egg tofu with black fungus 5, and a vegetable mix dish.

 

For Lu Zhuo and Lu Jun, according to their habits, one likes all grains, while the other likes red beans and barley rice.

 

The five dishes Shen Qi made are divided into three hot dishes and one cold dish plus a soup, which avoided all of their hated ingredients, and are all Shen Qi’s best dishes.

 

However, only little Miss Lu Jun was at the dinner table, while Lu Zhuo was nowhere to be seen.

 

Shen Qi and Lu Jun met, Master Lu personally called him over to make an introduction, saying that he thought the two were around the same age, and could be great friends.

 

Lu Jun was exactly how Uncle Shen described her.
She was a very lively and open-minded girl, and was very nice to Shen Qi.
Directly asking him for his contact.

 

Shen Qi smiled shyly.

 

Uncle Shen was worried that Lu Zhuo would come back later to eat, instructing Shen Qi to wait for him to return before going to sleep.
Shen Qi simply took a small bench, sitting in the kitchen with headphones to watch movies.

 

He did not know how long he had to wait.
The kitchen sliding door suddenly pulled open, Shen Qi looked up and saw the man sitting in a wheelchair.

 

At first glance, eight words ran through his head: “Your presence brings light to my humble being.”

 

Obviously a simple back kitchen, the man appeared, but the small space brightened up three saturations.
A handsome face perfectly illustrated the word “expressionless”, his two thick, black, fierce eyebrows, and a pair of eyes that were long and mysterious, that most people did not dare to make eye contact with him.

 

Shen Qi was at the emotional part in the movie, so his eyes and nose were red.
When he raised his head, two tears fell.

 

The author has something to say: Lu Zhuo: …… (what is happening)
