Chapter 5 part 1
Bai He was not good at cooking, his culinary cells were almost zero, the two things he was best at were boiling noodles and congee, after all, there was no technical difficulty. If he couldn't even learn these, then he would really be starving himself.
The previous Bai He spent almost the first twenty years of his life in school. He started boarding school from fifth grade in elementary school, all the way to college graduation, eating in the cafeteria for more than a decade. He never considered the idea of cooking, until after graduation when he started living independently, that's when he realized he was a kitchen killer.
After graduation, he only learned to boil noodles and cook congee. His biggest breakthrough was from boiling plain noodles to boiling egg noodles. Now he is already someone who can skillfully cook various kinds of noodles.
Bai He found that the diet in this world was somewhat different from his previous life, the restaurants had specialized menu categories, the physical constitution of omegas was not the same as alphas and betas, they needed to pay more attention to their diet. Whether at home or eating out, the food must be carefully prepared, otherwise they would easily get sick.
This was also the setting of this novel, Bai He recalled the description in the original text. The body of omegas was very precious and delicate, everyone would be extremely careful in taking care of the omega group.
Bai He was actually quite relieved that the original owner was not an omega, this body was already weak, and if it was an omega, it would be even more troublesome.
Seeing the sky gradually darkening outside, he put down the cat in his arms and got up to go to the kitchen.
What should he cook for dinner tonight?
Bai He opened the refrigerator, pondered for a moment, and reached out to take a cabbage.
He couldn't finish a whole cabbage by himself, Bai He took out a knife and cut one third, wrapping the remaining two thirds in plastic wrap and putting it back in the refrigerator.
He washed the cabbage clean, cut it into small strips, and the small pot on the side of the stove had already boiled water. He put a small handful of fine noodles into the boiling water, in the interval before the water boiled again. He went to the refrigerator and took out an egg.
Today, Bai He wanted to challenge himself. He was going to make a fried egg for himself.
...
Qin Yao was pacing in the living room, he had mixed feelings. Bai He had closed all the doors and windows that connected to the outside. Qin Yao crouched on the windowsill and looked down, the floor was very high, Bai He's cautiousness was understandable, but how could he sneak out?
He couldn't just change back into a human form right here, when a beast-man changes back into a human, there won't be any clothes on his body, their group was rare. Not everyone knew about the existence of beast-men, explaining it to Bai He would still be a difficult task, and a naked alpha suddenly appearing in the house would be mistaken for a home intruder, right?
The Maine Coon cat sat dejectedly on the windowsill, suddenly, a burnt smell wafted over.
Qin Yao: ?
He turned his head, smoke was coming out of the kitchen. Bai He's coughing sounds gradually came out, then the young man in a short sleeve shirt covered his nose and ran out of the kitchen, not leaving, just standing at the kitchen door. After a while he went back in again.
He went back and forth like this three times. Qin Yao couldn't sit still, he jumped down from the windowsill and went to the kitchen door, finding Bai He fighting with the blackened frying pan with a spatula.
Qin Yao: "...?"
Bai He noticed the Ling Ding sitting at the kitchen door, he turned off the fire and squatted down in front of the cat, still holding the spatula: "Ling Ding, do you want to eat fried eggs?"
No, thank you.
Qin Yao looked at the spatula covered in black gunk, confirming that it was the remnants left from the previous attempts at frying eggs.
The genius who has been the number one every year, actually can't even fry a sunny-side up egg.
He began to worry about the health of this temporary owner of his, suddenly remembering that this guy's body was originally not good.
Qin Yao sat on the floor without moving, seeing Bai He go fry eggs again, this grand battle lasted for half an hour before it ended. Bai He finally fried an egg that was still somewhat edible. He placed it on a plate and put it in front of Qin Yao, gently stroking the Maine Coon's head with a clean hand.
"This is for you, eat it."
Qin Yao was stunned, instinctively meowing twice. Bai He seemed to understand his meaning: "I'll go fry another one, this one's for you."
Qin Yao watched as Bai He went back to the frying pan. He lowered his gaze and looked at the slightly burnt fried egg in front of him, his mood complicated.
When Bai He was preparing to fry another fried egg, he found that there were no more eggs in the refrigerator, so he just ate a bowl of cabbage noodles, cleaned up the dining table, and went to the living room to look for Ling Ding. The Maine Coon was sitting elegantly on the carpet, the fried egg on the plate had already been eaten up.
Bai He was happy in his heart, he collected Ling Ding's bowl together to wash, only then did he belatedly realize a very serious matter.
Can cats eat fried eggs?
He was startled, putting down the bowl he hadn't finished washing and running to the living room, Ling Ding was crouched on the windowsill grooming himself. Bai He went over and picked up Ling Ding.
The suddenly airborne Qin Yao: ???
Not finding any adverse reaction from Ling Ding, Bai He breathed a little easier: "Sorry, I overlooked it, I don't know if you can eat fried eggs."
He sat down on the sofa, putting Ling Ding on his lap, and turned on his phone to search online.
After a search, Bai He finally felt relieved.
"It's good that you can eat eggs, but it's best to have boiled eggs and sterile eggs, looks like I can't let you eat fried eggs next time."
The mighty alpha Qin Yao who was not allowed to eat fried eggs was a little depressed.
Bai He went back to the kitchen to continue washing the dishes. After finishing, he took his pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a shower. When he came out, he found Ling Ding still sitting on the windowsill.
Bai He thought about it, went over and picked up the cat. The Maine Coon had been washed clean at the hospital, and was very soft to hold, he hugged Ling Ding and went back to the room, snuggling into the bed without letting go, buried his head in Ling Ding's embrace and gently inhaled, speaking softly: "When you're healed, I'll take you out."
Late at night, the room was quiet, Bai He's breathing gradually calmed down, the beta-held Qin Yao remained motionless, without the slightest sleepiness.
