Sister Meng tied on her apron.

The thin straps cinched tight around her, showing off her perfect figure without leaving much to the imagination.

Her hair was loosely tied up, hanging down behind her head.

“Hmph. You say I’m the scheming one, but you’re clearly worse!”

The moment Meng Wanyu saw her sister’s pure-and-flirty look, she knew it was on purpose.

Damn it.

Was her sister trying to steal her man?

Still, Meng Wanyu noticed that Lu Chengzhou’s attention was still on the food in front of him. He wasn’t looking at her sister at all.

She quietly let out a breath of relief.

Looks like her Teacher Lu had pretty good self-control after all.

He wouldn’t be tempted that easily.

Meng Wanyu walked over to her sister’s side and deliberately straightened her waist a little.

In other areas, she might lose to her sister.

But when it came to figure...

Hmph, she wasn’t losing that one!

“Sis, since when are you interested in cooking too?”

That was what Meng Wanyu asked.

Her sister only smiled and said nothing.

How much interest could she possibly have in cooking?

She simply didn’t want her little sister to get her way.

If she stayed out of it, poor Lu Chengzhou would definitely get bullied by her sister again later.

Of course.

She had no interest in Lu Chengzhou in that sense.

Compared to this kind of refined-looking man, she preferred the powerful type.

The kind who could lift her with one hand would be best.

As for Lu Chengzhou?

Looking at how thin and weak he was, that was obviously not happening.

“Sis, why aren’t you saying anything? Acting like some kind of expert?”

Meng Wanyu kept pestering her without giving up.

Her sister was sifting flour.

Her hands were steady, like she did this kind of thing often.

“Next, whip the cream.”

Lu Chengzhou assigned the sisters different tasks.

As for the man at the center of all this, he was only thinking that after another half hour, he’d get paid for two full hours.

He didn’t notice at all that the gunpowder between the sisters was getting thicker and thicker.

“Sis, whipping cream takes strength. Can you handle it?”

Meng Wanyu looked at her sister with a sweet smile.

One provocation after another.

“It has to be whipped until it’s really white, okay?”

“Your hands aren’t that strong, right?”

“Looks like you’re already running out of energy.”

Sister Meng finally glanced at her. “If I remember right, our house has a tool specifically for whipping cream, doesn’t it?”

Meng Wanyu: “...”

Her silence confirmed her sister’s guess.

Sister Meng smiled slightly, covered her collar, then bent down and searched through the cabinet below.

Very quickly, she found the mixer.

A job that would’ve taken over half an hour by hand was done in just a few minutes.

Meng Wanyu stamped her foot in anger. “Sis! That’s cheating, okay?”

Sister Meng looked at Lu Chengzhou.

She spread her hands and said, “Teacher Lu Chengzhou, did you ever say machines weren’t allowed?”

Caught under both sisters’ gazes, Lu Chengzhou had no idea how to answer for a moment.

Meng Wanyu’s expression said she was about to get mad.

If he didn’t soothe her quickly, the volcano was going to erupt.

As for Sister Meng, she was looking at him expectantly, so much so that he even felt a trace of guilt.

Backed into a corner, Lu Chengzhou chose to change the subject.

“The oven’s preheated already. Next is mixing, so you need to hurry.”

...

Actually, baking cake wasn’t complicated at all.

During the years they spent abroad, both Meng Wanyu and her sister had taken cooking classes. This was basic stuff.

But maybe because they weren’t focused today, both of their cakes could only be called failures.

Meng Wanyu’s cake was baked too hard, while her sister’s had collapsed in the middle.

Looking at the two failed products, Lu Chengzhou sighed.

“Uh, actually... making a cake like this could count as a kind of specialty...”

“You mean ugly in a special way?” Sister Meng asked on purpose.

“Ah, Teacher Lu, are you scolding us now?” Meng Wanyu actually piled on too.

Lu Chengzhou only felt like the two sisters were about to force him into a corner.

No, not just mentally.

In reality, they really were trying to gang up on him.

Lu Chengzhou quickly said, “You worked hard to make them. Aren’t you going to taste them?”

As he spoke, he turned around, cut the cakes, and gave each of them a small piece.

When Meng Wanyu’s cake landed on the plate, it actually made a clunk.

You could imagine just how hard it had been baked.

As for her sister’s cake, Lu Chengzhou genuinely thought its failure was impressive in a bizarre way.

The outside was already charred black, yet the inside was somehow still molten.

Suppressing his resistance, he cut off a small piece and placed it on a plate.

At that moment, Meng Wanyu came up with a new idea.

She moved close to Lu Chengzhou and smoothly snatched that plate of cake from his hand.

“Teacher Lu, it’s been hard teaching the two of us. Next, it should be our turn to feed you, right?”

As she spoke, she speared a small piece with a fork and held it up to his lips.

And at that moment, Sister Meng not only didn’t try to stop her, she joined the camp persecuting him.

She also picked up a piece of cake with a fork and held it out in front of Lu Chengzhou.

“Teacher Lu Chengzhou, want to give it a try?”

What kind of asura field was this?

Lu Chengzhou had no idea why he, a mere supporting male character, had to suffer this kind of treatment.

If the cakes they baked had been sweet and delicious, fine.

But the key issue was that both of them were holding failed products.

You two are definitely devils. No question.

“Teacher Lu, I’m really curious.” Meng Wanyu draped an arm over his shoulder. “Which one will you choose?”

It was obviously just a matter of choosing which cake to eat first.

But coming from Meng Wanyu, it sounded like he was choosing a life partner.

Lu Chengzhou sighed.

He didn’t answer.

“This is something you need to choose carefully.”

Sister Meng also draped an arm over his shoulder.

In a voice only the two of them could hear, she whispered,

“Because if you choose the wrong person, you might be punished.”

...

After more than ten seconds of silence,

Lu Chengzhou decisively ducked down and slipped out from between them.

Choose one?

No. He was choosing neither.

Making a choice would leave the conflict on him.

If he made no choice, then the conflict went back to them.

As for how their war would play out after that, that was beyond what an ordinary cooking tutor like him could handle.

“That’s about enough for today. Remember to transfer the payment. I’ll be going.”

Lu Chengzhou decisively packed up his things and left the Meng residence.

The Meng sisters leaned by the door and watched his retreating back.

“Pfft.”

Meng Wanyu suddenly laughed.

She realized that Lu Chengzhou was getting more and more interesting.

Looks like the game between them was going to last quite a while.

As for Sister Meng, there was a slight note of calculation in her gaze as she watched him.

“A man with no intention of falling in love is very hard to win over.”

Thinking that, she glanced at her younger sister.

“Looks like she’s in for a lot of suffering from now on.”
