The peephole in the door reflected a bald head, and approximately one centimeter of hair had grown on this bald head, which was not at all looked good-looking. However, its owner had a good-looking face, just that, at this moment, he looked completely at a loss.

“Boss, I’m embarrassed to trouble you again. I know that you may feel a little disgusted, but I can’t help it. It’s already late in the evening, so it’s too late to go to the supermarket, and at this point, it seems like there’s nothing…”

“Get to the point.” Chu Yifeng interrupted his chattering.

“Can you… lend me some ingredients?” Wang Cheng put his hands together, as if he was praying. He had already figured it out that it was much easier to get the ingredients than the ready-made food.

“Still haven’t eaten yet?” Chu Yifeng folded both hands over his chest and leaned against the door frame with half of his body. Then, he looked at Wang Cheng with his brows raised and did not confirm if Wang Cheng could borrow or not.

“Yes, until now, my big brother hasn’t come back yet, and the refrigerator has nothing to eat in it. I don’t know where the nearby supermarket is. I don’t have a phone to call for home delivery. In fact, I shouldn’t have come over to find you, Boss. It’s just that, you’re the only one I know here.” Wang Cheng hurriedly said this with a smile, while blaming the whole thing on his big brother, who hung up on him at the last moment. The fact that he knew his younger brother was coming over, in any case, he should have put something in the refrigerator, even if it was just some snacks, it would have been enough.

Chu Yifeng did not speak and turned back into his apartment.

What could this mean?

Wang Cheng looked at the half-open door. Did he or did he not understand, was the boss letting him in? It doesn’t matter. For the sake of my stomach, I must break through the dragon’s pool and tiger’s den in one dash.

While he followed his boss into the kitchen, Wang Cheng was passably thinking that his boss and big brother’s kitchen were two of a kind. Looking at it carefully, this kitchen did not have the brand-new-and-never-opened feeling of his big brother’s. It seemed that it was used for cooking meals once in a while. The kitchen utensils looked very new and had superior quality. The refrigerator was also exceedingly large in size, blackcurrant purple in color, and was both gorgeous and stylish.

“Take whatever ingredients you want yourself.” Chu Yifeng leaned on the side.

The refrigerator opened from the middle. The top was filled with many light and convenient seasonings, fruits, beverages and such fully stuffed more than half of the refrigerator. Wang Cheng looked down and there were no fruits nor vegetables that he wanted.

“Below.” Chu Yifeng reminded him.

Wang Cheng opened the lower half of the refrigerator, and at once, many fresh vegetables appeared right before his eyes. There were also fish, shrimp and other ingredients. Each small box was neatly stacked up. Below the refrigerator was a cabinet with a large number of frozen foods, dumplings, stuffed steamed buns, boiled glutinous rice flour balls and so on. To say that this refrigerator was a mini-supermarket was not an exaggeration.
