Chapter 1834


    Neither Adrienne nor Jefferson was good at cooking, so they weren''t very familiar with the


    ingredients.


    From what she remembered, since they had gotten married, Jefferson had only cooked once.


    During which he had almost burned down the entire kitchen.


    Right now, both of them were at the fresh food section of the supermarket, but they had no idea


    what to buy.


    Seafood, meat, vegetables... There were a variety of options. They were having trouble picking


    what they wanted.


    Adrienne looked at Jefferson for help and asked, "What do you think I should get?"


    "You can buy whatever you want. You don''t have to ask me." Jefferson had even less of a clue than


    Adrienne.


    Adrienne scratched her head and looked embarrassed. "I- I don''t know how to cook anything. If I


    did, I wouldn''t be asking you."


    Jefferson grumbled discontentedly, "I told you just now that we should go out to eat. Who was the


    one who insisted on making me soup? Now you''re telling me you don''t know how to cook anything?


    Are you trying to make me starve?"


    "Wait a minute! I have a solution." Adrienne took out her phone and opened Google to search for


    soup recipes that were good for recuperation. She smiled generously at Jefferson and assured him,


    "Mr. Hefner, don''t worry. I will search it up and learn."


    Jefferson rolled his eyes at her and scolded, "Why didn''t you search it up earlier? You''d better not


    starve me to death."


    "How can I starve you to death? You are not that stupid." Adrienne was dumbfounded as she stared


    at her phone screen. There was too much information that had popped up from her search.

    Some people rmended chicken soup, and others rmended vegetable soup... Looking at


    all this, Adrienne felt like it was even harder for her to choose now.


    Jefferson took the phone and questioned, "Are you trying to stall for time?"


    "I''ll make chicken soup as it has more protein." Adrienne took the phone back and put it in her bag.


    "Chicken soup it is."


    Jefferson knew that this little idiot was no better than him when it came to cooking. It was good


    enough if she could even cook instant noodles for him. He had no expectations from her to cook


    anything more advanced than that. "Since you''ve decided, what are you waiting for?"


    "So, you''ve agreed!" Adrienne hugged his arm happily and rubbed her head against him. "I knew


    that you aren''t just handsome, but you''re also very understanding. You are indeed the epitome of a


    good man of our generation."


    "Little idiot, your mouth has be so sweet. Let me have a taste." Before Adrienne could


    understand what he meant, her lips were sealed by his.


    She was stunned at first, and then she struggled with a panic thought, "There are so many people


    coming and going in this supermarket. Is he trying to put on a show for them?"


    Fortunately, Jefferson did not continue. He let go of her as soon as she struggled. Adrienne covered


    her blushing face and said, "Can''t you kiss me when we get home? I don''t want to be seen as some


    circus freak here."


    He caressed her head and let out a heartyugh. "Okay, okay. I won''t kiss you here. I''ll go home


    and kiss you to my heart''s content."


    Adrienne pinched him andmented, "Do you still want to buy chicken?"


    Jefferson was still grinning. "Yes, yes..."


    Adrienne tried to change the topic, "We can ask the butcher to help us chop and clean the meat.


    Then we just need to wash and cook it when we get home."


    Adrienne felt like she was actually pretty smart. She just hadn''t thought of this idea earlier.


    Looking at how adorably silly she looked, Jefferson could not help but smile. He reached out to rub


    her head and teased, "My little idiot, how are you so adorably stupid?"


    "Yes, I am a little idiot and you are the smartest man alive. Are you happy?" She had only been


    ted for two minutes before another problem arose. There were so many different parts of a


    chicken. Which one should she buy?


    She once again looked at Jefferson for help. He answered, "Get the breast meat. I heard that it has


    the highest protein."


    "Okay!" Adrienne then requested the worker to help her pack up four pieces of chicken breast. As


    she walked around, she felt like they needed everything.


    Jefferson didn''t know what to buy. Besides, he would eat whatever she made. So Adrienne strolled


    along the aisles joyfully as she picked up whatever she wanted while Jefferson followed behind her


    and put all her items into the cart.


    After strolling the entire supermarket, Adrienne had filled the cart up to the brim. Before paying the


    bill, she had felt like these were all necessities. But once she heard the price, she suddenly felt like


    none of these things was really needed at all.


    She looked at the cashier and asked awkwardly, "Um, I''ve bought a little too much. Can I remove


    some of the items?"


    The cashier responded, "Sure. Which ones do you want to remove?"


    "I only want the chicken and the..." Before Adrienne could finish her sentence, Jefferson came up


    from behind her. He handed over his card and interrupted, "No need. Just use my card."


    At that moment, Adrienne felt like Jefferson was glimmering brightly as if he was a knight in shining


    armor.


    Jefferson nced at Adrienne with dissatisfaction. She was getting smarter and smarter. How did


    shee up with such a way to embarrass him? As a man, how could he let his wife pay?


    The cashier took over the card and swiped it. Jefferson did not say anything more, but Adrienne


    was super happy. Even her eyes were glistening as she eximed, "Thank you, Mr. Hefner!"


    After returning home.


    Adrienne changed her shoes and walked to the kitchen with the ingredients. "You should head back


    to your room and rest for a while. I''ll call for you when dinner is ready."


    As he stared at the ingredients in her hand, he had absolutely no confidence in her. Hemented,


    "Why don''t you leave the ingredients in the kitchen and I''ll cook instead? Let me go and change


    first."


    "No. I''ve promised you that I''ll take care of you. How can I possibly let you cook?" The scene of him


    almost burning down the kitchen was still fresh in her mind. She did not want to go through that


    experience again so soon.


    "Are you sure?" Jefferson had no idea that Adrienne was looking down on his cooking skills.


    Honestly, he looked down on her cooking skills too. He even wondered if the soup which she was


    going to cook would be edible.


    Adrienne smiled confidently. "Go and have a rest, I''ll call you when I''m done."


    Jefferson nodded in defeat, but he was still a little worried.


    Although Adrienne was not good at cooking, she wasn''tpletely clueless.


    She cleaned the meat and washed it before seasoning it and leaving it to marinate for a while. In


    the meantime, she went to the room to change into more casual clothes.


    Jefferson was not in the room. Adrienne assumed that he was probably busy in his study. She


    looked over to the door. At first, she thought that she''d better not disturb him. But when she thought


    of his injuries, she knocked on the door and reminded him, "You are now a wounded man. Please


    remember to get adequate rest."


    Although Jefferson ignored her, Adrienne continued nagging him, "You were injured on the job, and


    you''re on sick leave now. You don''t have to worry about work-rted things. Health alwayses


    first."


    Jefferson still ignored her. She pouted andined, "Hey, I''m just concerned about you. Don''t


    just ignore me."


    This time, Jefferson''s voice finally came from the study. "My dear Dr. Carter, I''m so hungry that my


    stomach is growling very loudly."


    "Oh... just wait a little longer." Adrienne had almost forgotten that she had to busy herself in the


    kitchen. Thus, she immediately rushed back in.
