Zhang Cheng scratched his head:
"We're trying to date... My friends just came over, so I wanted to give her a chance to show off her cooking skills..."
Su Yang's good-looking eyebrows knotted together. He didn't speak for a long time as he stared at Zhang Cheng, then he sighed:
"Show off what? As Weiwei's friend, when we were working on set I was the one cooking for her. If I just ask her to pour me a glass of water I worry the kettle is too heavy. As long as I'm on set, I haven't let her carry anything.
A delicate girl like her from "Delicate as a Flower", you're making her work?
You should cherish her in your palm like a treasure!"

"Su Yang let me help you."
Qin Wei said, moving to stand up, but was pulled down by Shen Qingqing.
"No, Weiwei your hands are so pretty, they aren't meant for labor. There's lots of skincare endorsements trying to sign you right? Those opportunities are way more important than a vegetable or two."
Shen Qingqing stood up while speaking,
"I'll go help Su Yang~".
Su Yang tried not to laugh, waving his hand:
"You sit too. As long as I'm here, I can't stand to see girls doing this kind of rough work and tiring tasks. Daniel said something very right, I'm a man, I should be the one to do this stuff while cute girls should be doted on and able to comfortably enjoy the outcome.
If either of you come to help, that means I'm not capable enough, that means I didn't do a good enough job!"

【 Boss Su Yang, model of masculinity】
【 I suddenly see Boss Su Yang as more manly】
【Su Yang always took good care of Qin Wei on set, there's behind the scenes of him helping carry stuff so Qin Wei only had to walk ahead and not worry about anything else】
【And he learned to wrap dumplings for Qin Wei】
【Those little Wei Rang moments are so sweet, they're often staring at each other with silly smiles】
...
The other men felt a little awkward. One really couldn't stand it so went to help Su Yang cook.
The rest changed topics on purpose, talking about Zhang Cheng:
"How do you feel seeing Qin come be a guest on the show?"
Zhang Cheng: "Very good, beautiful."
"If Xiao Qiao came too, who would you pick?"
Zhang Cheng fell into deep thought.
Su Yang picked up the conversation:
"Don't agonize, Xiao Qiao definitely wouldn't pick you anyway.
You might as well come help cook, give yourself a chance to showcase your value."
"My value isn't shown through these trivial matters."
Zhang Cheng was a little unhappy.
"No need to look down on people so much either. I'm not as handsome and dazzling a star as you guys but I don't rely on my face to eat. I rely on my writing. If we have to debate with this level I'd need some higher education background."
Qin Wei pointed at Su Yang: "He has a PhD."

【He PhD】

Zhang Cheng desperately tried to recover the situation:
"Higher education doesn't matter, specialized skills matter more. I'm currently writing detective fiction which involves extremely specialized reasoning and deduction..."
Qin Wei again pointed at Su Yang:
"He is in forensic medicine."

Zhang Cheng's face was red. He really was writing detective stories, getting specialized knowledge online since he was an amateur barging in. Meeting real experts, he didn't dare say another word.
"Don't talk about me anymore. The food is ready, let's eat."
Su Yang was still lowkey, bringing out the finished dishes.
Salad for everyone.
Zhang Cheng and his friends were stunned:
"That's it?"
Qin Wei: "Is it weird to eat this?"
Shen Qingqing: "Is it weird to eat this?"
Su Yang: "Is it weird to eat this?"

【Is it weird to eat this?】
【Damn where did so many repeating bots come from???】
【Damn several hours passed, as a Qin Wei hater I still haven't seriously attacked... Qin Wei is too magical! Does she have any variety shows or dramas you can rec? 】
【Go watch the show "Against the Wind", super addicting!】
【Look forward to Qin Wei's new drama "Starfire"! Lots of hardworking and serious actors aside from her!】
【Qin Wei get out of the entertainment industry! (Actually she was also funny in her past few livestreams, am I the only one still yelling slogans now? Aren't you guys getting paid?)】
【Mainly that dude was too lame, everyone is busy scolding him...】
...
After the meal, Su Yang had arranged desserts to be delivered too. Very considerate, he not only got forks for Qin Wei and Shen Qingqing but also opened the boxes for them. Then instead of eating himself he started clearing away bowls and putting them into the dishwasher.
Shen Qingqing never turns down good drama, deliberately asking Zhang Cheng:
"Do you think Weiwei will pick you tomorrow?"
Zhang Cheng nodded:
"I believe Miss Qin isn't the kind of person to pursue material things. She has a kind heart on the inside..."
Su Yang interrupted him:
"Let's not morally pressure people!
Being kindhearted has nothing to do with wanting a nice lifestyle. Whether boy or girl, striving to improve one's quality of life is perfectly fine. As long as you don't steal or waste, liking beautiful things isn't shameful at all. That's called fighting for yourself!"
Qin Wei nodded:
"Right, I don't wear t-shirts under 4 digits."

Later conversation kept getting disrupted by Su Yang and Shen Qingqing ——
Zhang Cheng: "Women ultimately have to return to family life. I don't oppose them having careers but family should be the priority focus."
Su Yang: "If my girlfriend wants me to provide while she stays home, I'll go earn money. If she wants to go out fighting her own path herself then I'll be her strong backup."
Zhang Cheng: "Have to keep reasonable spending no matter how much money or it'll be wasted in splurges."
Shen Qingqing turned to Qin Wei:
"Did you like the Cartier bracelet I gifted you? I just randomly splurged and bought it. If you like it I'll splurge with you later. We can get top chefs from 8 cuisines and make whatever you feel like eating!"
Money is easy to earn again anytime. Your happiness is what matters!"
Zhang Cheng: "You'll spoil her this way... Who would dare want her in future..."
Comments section——
【I fully support spoiling my sister rotten, let me gift her gift her gift her!】
【Aren't geese made to be doted on?】
【Right? I don't understand】
Shen Qingqing: "That would be great then no one can compete with me for her!"
Su Yang: "Yeah if you quickly spoil her rotten then no one will be able to..."
Su Yang stopped himself from continuing.
When the working hours ended, Qin Wei left the principles of no OT. She waved at the camera then walked off.
Shen Qingqing and Su Yang followed along.
Getting into the business car Shen Qingqing's driver pulled up, only then did Qin Wei ask Su Yang:
"Why did you come?"
Su Yang pointed at Shen Qingqing:
"She called me here."
Shen Qingqing didn't deny it:
"That's right, it was me. I asked Su Yang to come over and show them what a masculine role model looks like."
Su Yang nodded, very firm in saying:
"Yes, I plan to single-handedly raise everyone's standards for boyfriends. As a public figure I have to lead the way in making the boyfriend position super competitive to the death."
