Chapter 34 - People couldn't help but have cravings for that food (3)
Then, she quickly comforted little Shanshan, "Don't listen to your brother. Mom will still frequently cook for you. Besides, mom needs to earn money to support the family. Look, there's so many toys and junkfood that you want to buy. You know that all of those things cost money, right?"
Only a young child would be fooled by her words...
Meng Yuran saw his foolish red-eyed sister nodding as if she had already been convinced. He secretly rolled his eyes.
"Didn't you say that I'll be graduating soon, so you'll be busy with taking care of me?"
He said to his mother, who had once been infatuated with that actor and was now fooling his younger sister for the sake of her hobby, "Nevermind, I already knew that you weren't dependable..."
Hey, she was totally being wronged by these words!
Lin Yiyi was a bit upset. "When did I stop caring? It's not easy to get a chef's certificate. Don't worry, even if I start working, I'll still care for you and your sister."
These two brats, they didn't act like she was their mother.
They were more like two ancestors that she had to pay obeisance to!
Meng Yuran shook his head. "Never mind. Since you'll be busy, I'll just go back to eating the cafeteria's overly salty and unpalatable food."
Lin Yiyi suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If someone didn't know the whole story, he or she might actually believe Meng Yuruan's nonsense!
"I want to have a career. I thought it over. The only thing I know how to do is cook. I don't have the skills to do anything else."
The novel's Lin Yiyi had been an unsuccessful actress. After marriage, she had gradually faded out of the public eye.
Her almost nonexistent reputation had been bad. There was a limit to the resources she could use. She had gotten a few acting opportunities by relying on her stepdad's connections, but she hadn’t gained much popularity. Later on, even she gave up on her acting career.
As for Lin Yiyi, she didn't have any interactions with the entertainment circle in her past, so it was even less likely she could help the original owner of this body resume a career in acting.
Acting skills that skyrocketed overnight, entering the acting circle, filming movies, becoming famous, winning awards, and then walking to the pinnacle of life... That was outside the scope of her abilities!
Lin Yiyi rested her chin on her hand. "My favorite hobby right now is cooking all sorts of savory and sweet food. The only way I can advance in my hobby is to be a cook or open my own shop."
Actually, opening her own stop could be considered an acceptable idea too.
After all, she had the money and time to do that now.
Meng Yuran was stunned. Looking at her, he quietly lowered his head.
Soon after, he looked up and thoughtfully said, "You could try being a gourmet food broadcast anchor."
This type of broadcast was currently popular on the Internet and had many viewers.
Lin Yiyi hadn't paid attention to the comments on her Weibo account, but Meng Yuran had secretly followed it.
His mother had a bad reputation and was the target of verbal abuse without any good reason behind it. In Meng Yuran's opinion, his mom hadn't done anything horribly wrong...
If it was wrong of her to love that man, then their divorce was inevitable from the beginning.
One person stode forward, and the other person would only turn in place, never able to leave.
Most importantly, compared to their usually indifferent and absentee father, no matter how irresponsible their mother had been in the past, at the very least, she would frequently appear before them. Because of her, they knew that their home still had a "mother".
Meng Yuran hadn’t suggested this idea without basis.
He had discovered that the comments on his mom's Weibo had turned to a new direction...
Those uploaded photos had been expertly taken. A single glance was enough to whet people's appetites. Even if he, who had eaten the food, felt that the photos had captured the food's delicious taste...
People couldn't help but have cravings for that food.
