I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

Upon hearing these words, an image subconsciously flashed across Xue Jing\'s mind.

For some reason, it was Meng.

Only then did he remember that he had previously promised to cook a delicious meal for Sister Meng.

That promise had been delayed until now and remained unfulfilled.

Xue Jing opened his character panel and glanced at his cooking skills.

[Cooking Lv6 (2320/3000)]

Since he had set off for Maple City, he hadn\'t cooked a single dish.

It was only when he was at the Intersecting Boundaries that he had roasted a few Dragon Breeds, earning a bit of Cooking Experience.

Xue Jing himself didn\'t really care about this skill, which was completely irrelevant to combat power... Well, not entirely irrelevant, since control over the heat and dexterous use of cooking tools did help a bit with combat strength, but the effect was minimal.

Now this skill, the earliest he had activated, had become one of the lowest levels in his panel, the same level as the newly activated [Acting].

Xue Jing touched his chin.

Hmm, it looks like it\'s almost time to level up. After reaching Lv7, he would cook a feast for Sister Meng.

Seeing that he did not immediately deny it, Nan Jiayu was taken aback for a moment, her youthful and beautiful face showing a hint of disbelief:

"Hmm? You really have someone now?"

Nan Jiayu immediately took out her phone from her pocket and began rapidly tapping and swiping on the screen, then put it to her ear as if making a call.

Xue Jing\'s mouth twitched: "Mom, what are you doing?"

Nan Jiayu: "I\'m calling your dad to share the good news."

She pretended to wipe her eyes with her well-maintained hand as if brushing away tears, her face a mix of sadness and joy as she said:

"Ever since puberty, facing any girl of the same age with a deadpan face, and only hanging out with that Li Ge all day, you\'ve finally come to your senses... Mom is so happy."

"Up until today, Mom has been worrying every day if you would open the door to a new world... Hmm? Wait a moment, is your someone a boy or a girl?"

At the last sentence, Nan Jiayu\'s gaze suddenly sharpened.

Xue Jing, speechless, stretched out his hand and snatched her phone away before she could react, pressing the hang-up button on the dialing screen.

"I don\'t have someone, and it couldn\'t be a boy. Can\'t I learn to cook to make food for you?"

He pouted.

Upon hearing this, Nan Jiayu\'s eyes immediately brimmed with joy, turning into crescents: "Mom loves to hear that." Discover stories with m,v l\'e-NovelBin.net

She reached out and tousled Xue Jing\'s hair: "Becoming so eloquent, and you say you don\'t have someone? You can\'t hide it from Mom, you know!"

Lying on the couch, petting her cat, watching dramas, and eating chips, Xue Wan laughed: "Mom, just let him cook already, I\'m waiting to see him make a fool of himself."

Nan Jiayu turned to her with a beaming smile: "If you add any nonsensical word before \'Mom\' again, I\'ll skin you."

Xue Wan shivered and dared not speak anymore.

Nan Jiayu\'s cheerful expression vanished as she spoke in an even tone: "Sitting without decorum, lounging without grace, now sit up properly."

Xue Wan immediately bounced up from the couch, switching her lazy slouch to sitting upright with her hands on her knees, obedient like a kindergarten child sitting in line waiting to eat snacks.

The cat sitting on the adjacent couch shone its emerald-like eyes bright at this scene.

Facing Xue Wan\'s nearly twisted pleading eyes, Xue Jing spread his hands in a helpless gesture and walked into the kitchen, unconcerned with others\' affairs.

"So after going off to university and reading a few books, you\'re getting wild, Xue Xiaowan."

Nan Jiayu\'s youthful and beautiful face remained expressionless as she sat down on the single-seat sofa opposite Xue Wan, crossing her long legs, and looking down at Xue Wan who bowed her head.

Xue Wan mumbled: "I... I haven\'t. Who could be wilder than you..."

Nan Jiayu raised an eyebrow: "Hmm?"

Xue Wan quickly corrected herself: "No, what I mean is, how dare I get wild in front of you!"

"Meow~"

An extremely sharp cat\'s meow came from the side. Miao Miao gently pressed her front paws on Nan Jiayu\'s thigh, looking up at her with wide innocent eyes, from the cutest angle possible.

Her cat form was already so beautiful it deserved to be called \'beautiful.\' With her deliberate cuteness, Nan Jiayu was completely disarmed and smiled brightly:

"Oh, Little Feng Wan is so cute, much cuter than your sister. Come here, let Mom pet you..."

Xue Wan\'s mouth twitched upon hearing her mother\'s self-reference.

Everything was in disarray.

...

While listening to the slight commotion in the living room, Xue Jing began his food preparation work, taking out the ingredients he had prepared in the fridge from his last trip home.

Now, he moved almost as exaggeratedly as the legendary chefs in gourmet manga, with every action precise and quick, looking like a movie fast-forwarded, completing tasks like chopping vegetables and preparing seasonings in an instant.

The kitchen buzzed with clanging and chopping sounds, seemingly chaotic, but actually well-organized. In just a moment, all the prep work was done, and he filled the stove with ready-to-cook ingredients, starting the final cooking process.

After stir-frying, stewing, and deep-frying, in less than an hour, six dishes and one soup, all tantalizing in color, scent, and taste, were created by his hands.

The panel sent a notification [Cooking Experience Points +103].

Xue Wan sat at the dining table, chopsticks in hand, looking at the tempting dishes on the table, swallowed saliva, and stubbornly said:
