Levi was very determined in his stance to not let Monique cook, but that stance instantly disappeared once Monique was also firm in her position.
Currently, Monique was studying the recipes while Levi was reluctantly washing the vegetables in the kitchen. While washing, he nagged, "Monique, if you don't know how to cook, then just don't. Let's go out to eat or order takeaway to save trouble. Why do we have to torture ourselves like this?"
"Because I want to!" Monique replied, then went back to bury herself in studying the recipes she held.
She usually watched her mother and Vivian's cooking, which looked simple enough. However, when it came to her to cook herself, it was even harder than going onto a battlefield for her.
"Because you want to?" Just because she wanted to, then why did he have to suffer with her? Was it because he was her boyfriend?
In the past, he worried about finding a girlfriend as unreasonable as Mia. He didn't expect that Monique would be even more outrageous than Mia.
Treating him roughly out of the blue, and even torturing him with a method like this... If this were to continue, he would collapse sooner or later.
Levi forcefully washed the vegetables in his hands as he imagined that the vegetables were Monique. If he was bullied by her in reality, then he would torture her to death in his imagination.
"Levi, the sweet and sour pork ribs don't look easy to make. Why don't we try a simpler dish?" Monique, who was studying the recipe, suddenly said. Upon hearing this, Levi broke out in a cold sweat. "What kind of dish do you want to make? A full-on banquet?"
She couldn't even make a simple dish like sweet and sour pork, but she still wanted to make something else. When did Monique start to overestimate herself? Levi wondered.
"I really want to try, but a whole banquet is too troublesome. I can't even get ready with all the ingredients I want. Furthermore, I'm a novice, I don't want to think about that first. Next time if there's a chance, then I'll consider," Monique answered indifferently.
"Monique, you still acknowledge that you're not capable?" He thought that she had completely forgotten how lackluster she was in cooking.
"Of course I do." Monique asked again, "Have you finished washing the vegetables?"
"Yes." Every one of the vegetables were rinsed in water. As for whether it was clean or not, Levi had no idea.
"Then, cut the potatoes into shreds," Monique ordered.
"Cut the potatoes into shreds? Monique, are you crazy?" Levi had never washed the dishes since he was a child. At present, he had to cut the potatoes into shreds? He might as well cut himself with a knife.
"If the potatoes aren't in shreds, then how can I stir- fry them?" Monique's tone was very matter-of-fact.
"Monique, you're the one who wants to cook, not me. Why am I doing all these difficult things?" Levi shouted discontentedly.
Monique looked up from the recipes and looked at Levi. Seeing his flustered face, she knew that he really was angry. However, she had the magic cure. All she needed to do was to smile at him with a sweet smile and say, "Because you're my boyfriend!"
In the past, Monique felt that there was nothing that could not be solved by force. If she wanted to take control of Levi, then she had to train harder. Defeating him in competitions would make him bow his head to her.
However, ever since she listened carefully to Vivian's words, she realized that the gentle demeanor was the most fatal weapon towards men.
"Did Vivian give you weird ideas again?" There was not even a need to ask as Levi knew that Monique must have been convinced by Vivian to change. However, he still wanted Monique to tell him herself. He needed to know if it was Monique herself that wanted to treat him so gently, or if it was Vivian who had ordered her to do so.
Although the end result was the same, there was a critical difference between them.
Monique said, "Just tell me if you like it or not."
"I'm asking you a question," Levi said.
"You have to answer me first."
"I like it, but-"
Monique interrupted him. "As long as you like it, its fine. No buts'. Let me tell you, Vivian taught me all of this but it is also because you like it when I treat you like this, that I'll treat you as so. I'm willing to be softer in front of you and I'm willing t⁰ 'et V⁰⁰ see mV gentler side."
