"It might sound like I'm bragging, but my cooking skills are pretty good."
"The food I make should be passable, but it should suit your tastes."
She simply couldn't believe that this guy could cook...
Judging from the other person's personality, their housekeeping skills are probably terrible.
Seeing this, Shirakawa Shiki didn't explain, but just chuckled and said, "Yukinoshita, then you can try it in a bit."
"Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting long."
Seeing that he was stubborn and unwilling to listen to his opinions.
Yukino gave a soft hum and stepped out, following closely behind towards the kitchen.
"In any case, if I come to your door and do nothing, that would be against my principles."
"Then I'll help out too, I'll help with chopping and washing vegetables."
Gabriel and Shoko sat obediently side by side, not responding to their conversation.
Instead, they were whispering about online games.
They both have a girlish mentality and sometimes team up to play games.
Shirakawa had no objections. Looking at the girl who had braided and tied her hair up, he smiled and said, "Then, Yukinoshita, you can wash the vegetables."
At this moment, Yukinoshita, with her hair tied up and wearing an apron, appeared.
The former air of a refined lady has been enhanced by a touch of clean-cut, capable housewife charm.
"Well, I still have reservations. I'd prefer to be the head chef."
He glanced at him from under the snow.
He looked up and sighed softly.

746 said he didn't want to, and soon he was eating a horrifying, inedible dish.
Shirakawa Shiki wasn't annoyed, listening to the two adorable children chatting and laughing outside.
She said calmly, "Yukinoshita, then you've guessed wrong."
"It's not like you to make such a hasty judgment that someone can't cook."
"Isn't it because your image is too deeply ingrained in people's minds? It seems you can't change this lack of self-awareness, Shirakawa-kun?"
"In short, I'll make you take back what you said in a moment."
"Shirakawa-kun, even if your mind is full of such fantasies, reality will tell you that they usually don't happen. You should give up on daydreaming."
"Yukinoshita, it seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin."
"What's the point of talking about a coffin? If you presume the outcome is inevitable, then what's the point of the process? It's truly incomprehensible."
"Under the snow...!!"
While bickering with Yukinoshita, Shirakawa-shiki was preparing lunch.
This time it wasn't boring at all; in fact, it was quite enjoyable.
After all, with a top-tier beauty by his side, it seemed that her faint body fragrance masked all other scents.
The entire kitchen was filled with a light and refreshing atmosphere.
Yukino glanced at his movements, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
She kept glancing at this guy, as if she were seeing him for the first time.
Therefore, regardless of the taste, the smooth and effortless cooking movements cannot be faked.
But a few tens of minutes later...
"Lunch is ready, Tianzhen, Xiangzi, come and eat."
Yukinoshita, carrying a plate of dishes, placed the last dish on the table and softly called out to Gabriel and Shoko.
"Thank you for your help, Yukinoshita-kun. Oh, and you can call me Gabriel like Shiki-kun does."
"Okay, Yukinoshita-neechan."
Shoko and Gabriel, two girls of the same height, stopped talking and quickly took small steps forward.
75]63;241!0 The two girls' faces were slightly flushed, a result of their excitement and excited tone.
After hesitating for a moment, Yukinoshita, perhaps moved by Gabriel's holy smile, nodded in agreement.
"Well, then I was being a bit presumptuous, Gabriel."
"It's okay," Gabriel chuckled, unconcerned.
Next…
To Yukino's surprise, she had thought that this guy, who acted without any scruples, would never cook.
But after tasting the food, the shock I felt was beyond words.
If you were to rate her skills based on her mastery of housekeeping and cooking, you couldn't find any fault with her.
They even had the illusion that this was the world's number one chef, an amazing genius.
This discovery left her somewhat taken aback and also a little frustrated.
Aside from her lack of confidence in her physical abilities, she has always been confident that she is ahead of her peers in all other aspects.
And Shirakawa-shiki...
She glanced up at a seemingly normal person, and for the first time in her area of confidence, she felt a sense of discouragement.
However, could this be considered as discovering another new advantage of the other party?
She glanced at Shoko and Gabriel beside her, and only when she saw their unsurprised expressions did she finally confirm that it was true.
Amidst a tangle of thoughts, Yukino put down her chopsticks.
Suddenly, she smiled faintly and said, "Shirakawa-kun, it seems I have to take back what I said earlier."
She has the personality to admit her mistakes, so it's not a big deal for her to have any lingering psychological burden.
"It's alright, Yukinoshita, just tell me boldly, is it delicious?"
Shirakawa's gaze fell upon Shoko and Gabriel at the dining table, and his teasing expression vanished.
Yukino glanced at him, clearly noticing the smug grin he'd given him just moments before.
So, she parted her pink lips slightly, looking annoyed, and said, "It is indeed very delicious, but don't get too carried away."
"I admit my cooking skills are not as good as yours, but that's the only thing you have to praise."
Sometimes, that arrogant smile of hers really makes her angry.
Chapter 130 Yukinoshita and Gabriel
Shirakawa and Yukinoshita were talking, exchanging some rather cryptic remarks.
Gabriel and Shoko, on the other hand, didn't have so many ulterior motives and were busy eating with their little pink cheeks puffed out.
His gaze occasionally drifted towards Shirakawa and Yukino, but his attention remained mostly on the dining table.
"I'm not being smug, but I probably have more strengths than just that, right?"
"Apart from that, I can't see anything else."
"That's under the snow; you just didn't observe it properly."
"You really dare to say that, Shirakawa-kun."
"That's certainly true. If Yukinoshita had been more observant, this wouldn't have happened."
Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita was speechless for a moment.
She could only helplessly fly away from him, giving him a slightly annoyed glare.
This incredibly cute girlish pose left Shirakawa Shiki, who was seeing her for the first time, momentarily stunned.
"Even though I know I'm cute."
"But Shirakawa-kun, please don't look at me like that. Can't you at least try to cover it up a little?!"
Noticing the other person's undisguised gaze, a hint of shyness flashed in Yukinoshita's bright eyes.
Two rosy blushes crept onto her cheeks, and she lowered her head and hummed softly.
Even if she no longer disliked it, the way the other person looked at her was just too blatant.
This made her, who had little experience with boys, feel both ashamed and angry.
