Can't Help Falling In Love

Chapter 40 The CEO Can Cook

"You have read the news now. Aren't you afraid that others will gossip about us if you come for me

now?" Kate made fun of him.

"I'm never afraid of the gossip of others. Kate, in fact, I... " Compared with his usual gentle tone,

Moore's tone was sort of firm. He looked at Kate quietly.

Before he finished his words, he was interrupted by a knock at the door and Kate went to open the

door.

This time, it was Brian.

Kate was just waiting for a while with Moore, but she was overwhelmed with joy as she saw Brian.

As soon as Brian pushed the door open, his face turned even colder at the sight of Moore sitting on the

sofa. Standing next to him, Kate shivered with fear. She took a look at Moore and then at Brian, as she

thought something bad might happen.

"Nice to meet you, Master. Li." Moore stood up and greeted to Brian naturally.

Brian nodded. Then he turned around, had a look at Kate, and calmly said: "I didn't expect to see Mr.

Moore here."

But his voice didn't show any ups and downs.

"It never occurred to me that Master. Li would come to such a place." Moore also replied, with a gentle

smile on his face.

One was cold and the other was gentle. Kate could feel the intense lightning and thunder between

them. They were overbearing. Each of them had their own temperament.

"Cough, cough. Mr. Brian, this is my senior schoolmate when I was in college." Kate, who stood in the

middle of them, made some dry coughs and said.

Brian nodded. He held Kate's hand and sat down in front of Moore.

For Moore, it was undoubtedly a provocation. His face went stiff. But soon, he looked as usual, and

there was no gentle sign on his face.

There was an odd atmosphere among these three people, and Kate didn't know where to start.

"Kate, I'm leaving now. I will call you later," Moore stood up and looked at Kate with a smile.

Kate nodded, let go of Brian's hand, stood up and walked Moore to the door.

"See you next time." All of a sudden, Moore bent over and left a light kiss on Kate's forehead.

Kate was shocked and pushed him away. Then she felt that she had overreacted and the atmosphere

was a little embarrassing.

"This is probably the most intimate action that we have done for a long time in our relationship." Moore

smiled. A kind of helpless and upset emotion flashed through his eyes. Kate pretended not to see it,

said goodbye to him and closed the door.

Kate walked back and saw the coldness and gloom on Brian's face. She lowered her head with guilt.

Did he see everything at the door just now?

The next second, Brian stood up and dragged Kate into the washroom. He wiped her forehead with his

hand which was just wiped by Moore. Kate was stunned and thought that this was not what the CEO

would do.

"Don't have any dealings with him." Brian took out a tissue and wiped her forehead carefully. At the

same time, he ordered coldly.

"Okay." Kate lowered her head and said in a low voice. But she felt a little sweet in her heart. She even

grinned.

With a frown, Brian reached out and pinched her cheek, and coldly asked, "what are you laughing at?"

"Nothing." Kate stopped smiling immediately and said seriously.

The more Brian stared at her, the more he frowned.

"Mr. Brian, are you angry?" Kate looked at Brian cautiously and asked.

"No, I didn't." The answer was clear.

"Are you jealous?" Asked Kate.

Brian's face darkened as he heard the bad news. Turning to Kate, he said in a cold voice, "Ridiculous."

How could he be jealous? He just didn't like to see Kate and Moore together.

With her hands putting back, Kate followed Brian. Her arrogant boss would not admit it, even though he

was angry. She could totally understand his concerns.

Back on the sofa, Brian looked around the messy room and finally fixed his eyes on Kate.

"Boss, the scandal online is fake." Kate took the initiative to clarify, while looking at Brian with her

shining eyes.

"I know." Brian replied naturally without even blinking.

Kate was in a daze for a second, then she lowered her head and slowly sat down next to Brian. She felt

so sweet in her heart.

"I'm hungry." Brian said casually.

After a while, Kate mumbled, "I don't know how to cook."

"……" Brian turned his head and looked at her gently.

Kate lowered her head in shame.

Brian stood up and went straight to the kitchen. Kate looked at his back in surprise. She couldn't help

but wonder if the CEO could cook?

At the thought of this, with a curious look on her face, Kate quietly followed behind Brian. When Brian

slightly turned around, Kate quickly picked up the vegetables on the table and covered her face. She

then turned her face and whistled.

"Come here." Said Brian, slightly frowning.

After hearing this, Kate ran to the front of Brian without hesitation and replied with a serious voice:

"yes!"

Brian rolled up his sleeves, opened the refrigerator, took out a basket of vegetables and handed it to

Kate: "wash these vegetables."

Seeing that Brian was about to cook, Kate hesitated. Although she really wanted to see the CEO

cooking, she felt it strange and inappropriate.

What if it was just a spur of the moment impulse of Mr. Brian, and he thought it would ruin his own

image later, then what if he blamed her for?

Kate thought there was a high chance of this happening based on Brian's uncertain character.

"Don't tell me you don't even know how to wash vegetables." Brian frowned and grew impatient.

"How could it be possible!" Hearing his disdainful tone, Kate immediately took the dish and refuted him.

But she wasn't confident enough.

Though Kate hadn't washed vegetables, she had seen Sherry doing this, so she was sure that she was

doing this in the right way.

'just washing vegetables. Only removing out the dirty part. How could I not do that!' she thought!

Kate was furious about how despicable Brian was and removed every flaws in the dishes. She didn't

want to be looked down upon by Brian.

"I have done." A few minutes later, Kate triumphantly brought the washed vegetables to the front of

Brian. She had washed every place. She was very proud. She raised her head quietly to look at Brian,

waiting for Brian to praise her.

However Kate saw Brian's face turned pale and he put his hand on his forehead and said nothing.

"Did I wash these vegetables clean?" Kate forced a smile and asked cautiously.

Brian glanced at the debris in the basket and kept silent.

When Kate was confused, Brian took out some food from the refrigerator and handed it to Kate.

Kate blinked at the vegetables. Did Mr. Brian dislike the vegetables she had washed? She scraped off

every stain and every spot she thought they were not beautiful. This should be perfect.

Kate had always been satisfied with her work. She wondered what Brian disliked.

She looked at Brian depressed, but she saw that Brian went up behind her, crossed her waist with his

hands, and overlapped her hands with the vegetables.

Kate's face was flushed again, and Brian patiently taught her to wash vegetables. But Kate's focus was

not on washing vegetables, but on the man behind her.

This man did it so expertly

It turned out that he could be so virtuous.

Puff Kate was bewildered by the word "virtuous". Fortunately, the CEO hadn't heard her, or he might

have kicked her out.

"Repeat it yourself." Blandly, Brian rested his chin on Kate's hair.

Kate nodded, but her hands still didn't move. She.. She was still in a daze.

With a frown, Brian bent over and looked at Kate's face. This girl was gazing blankly at the vegetable in

front of her, with her mouth slightly open. Nobody knew what she was laughing at.

"……" Brian spoke nothing. However, he smiled and didn't interrupt Kate who was thinking in face of

vegetables. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

'how silly she is!'. Brian thought.

Somehow, Kate had been driven out of the kitchen by Brian. She then saw Brian come out with two

bowls of noodles, one big and one small.

When seeing food, Kate was not as innocent as before. She stared at the big bowl of noodles. She

took the instant action when Brian put down the bowl, grabbed the bigger one and took a bite.

Yes, it's so delicious! Kate was shocked and let out a satisfactory sigh.

When Kate was about to have a second bite, she suddenly found that the big bowl in front of her had

disappeared. Then she followed the direction in which the bowl disappeared and saw Brian.

Shit! She forgot it was Brian who cooked the noodles and thought it was Sherry. Each time she had

dinner with Sherry, she would eat a big bowl. Because she had a big appetite, the amount of each meal

was two times that of Sherry.

"Mr. Brian, you are so amazing. It's so delicious even you just made a simple noodles." Kate said to

Brian with a fawning face, hoping that Brian could forget her rude behavior.

Brian glanced at her and saw her flattering smile. Outside of the smile, there was more brilliance in her

eyes, especially in that charming smile. He moved his eyes away and naturally put the bowl in front of

her and said, "this is yours."

"Uh." Kate was a little embarrassed and thought, 'does Mr. Brian just want to eat the larger one?' He

didn't mind her rude behavior?

Kate looked up at Brian cautiously, only to find that Brian had taken up his chopsticks to taste the

noodles in a graceful and natural manner.
