Although Ethan Ye seems to be cold, reserved, and rarely shows enthusiasm, people who are familiar with him know that he actually has many minor flaws, one of the most serious of which is protecting his shortcomings. When he considers a person as his own, he is always quite indulgent as long as it does not involve issues of principle or shortcomings. When he is willful, he will help his relatives and ignore others, lie with his eyes open, and appear calm and composed, which makes people choke and choke.
For example, he was impressed by Holden Nie’s cooking skills.
Ethan Ye was so picky about food that even Jasper Luo and Liam Xia wanted to beat him up. He was picky about the food he cooked himself, but not about the food made by Holden Nie. As long as it was made by Holden Nie, he would eat it obediently even if it didn't suit his taste. He rarely made any comments, and his double standards were justified.
However, Holden Nie was very good at studying Ethan Ye's psychology. Although Ethan Ye never expressed dislike, he still accurately understood Ethan Ye's preferences. During the years with Ethan Ye, his cooking skills improved at an astonishing speed, and his level was close to that of a chef, which made Jasper Luo and others who often went there for free meals quite satisfied.
So, when Holden Nie got up from Ethan Ye, went to the refrigerator to search for ingredients, and swaggered into the kitchen, Jasper Luo was relieved that he could finally eat Chef Nie's dishes again, but secretly complained that after not seeing him for so many years, this guy has become more and more shameless.

Ethan Ye loves spicy food, and his family always has very sharp peppers, but he rarely cooks spicy dishes because the process of handling peppers is not very comfortable. However, Holden Nie doesn't care. As before, he is afraid that the spicy smoke will choke Ethan Ye, so he goes into the kitchen and closes the glass sliding door, busying himself inside.
Jasper Luo saw Ethan Ye's cold face and soft heart, and watched him outside the kitchen for a while, then returned to the sofa and reported to Ethan Ye casually: "I said that the small chili peppers you bought this time were quite spicy. I saw him wipe his eyes several times when he was chopping the chili peppers."
... Ethan Ye had been sitting in silence with his back to the kitchen. After hearing what Jasper Luo said, he did not turn around to look, but his expression was not as stiff as before.
"Oh my, I haven't seen him cook for a few years, but he's still so fast."
...
"Oh my god, he's going to prepare a banquet!"
...
Every time Jasper Luo came over to say something, Ethan Ye's expression became more complicated. Finally, just when he couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to say something, the kitchen door opened, and Holden Nie stuck his head out and said to Jasper Luo: "Come and help carry the dishes."
Jasper Luo: ... Damn, I said so many good things for you, but you still order me around!
Ethan Ye glanced at Jasper Luo's twitching face, then stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
When Holden Nie saw Ethan Ye coming over, he was surprised, happy, and trembling (?): "Wife, Ethan Ye, you, you just sit down! I'll bring it myself, I'll bring it myself..."
Ethan Ye stared at his eyes that were red from the chili pepper for a while, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't speak and just walked into the kitchen in silence.
Inside the kitchen, on the black countertop were plates of cooked food, all of which were Ethan Ye's favorites. They were fragrant and the colors were very well matched, making one's appetite growl. The range hood was whirring on the side, but there was still a lingering spicy smell, which irritated Ethan Ye's eyes and made them steam up.
He closed his eyes to calm down, then picked up two plates, turned around, passed Holden Nie, and left the kitchen.
When the food was all served, the three of them sat down at the table.
Ethan Ye frowned and looked at the dishes without saying anything, with a complicated expression.
Holden Nie attentively scooped a bowl of steaming hot soup and placed it in front of Ethan Ye: "Guizhou jujube and yam soup, it nourishes the stomach, drink a bowl first before eating those spicy ones, don't worry, I have adjusted it, it doesn't taste sweet."
Jasper Luo is not a picky eater at all. Looking at the table full of dishes and soups, meat and vegetable combinations, spicy and light dishes, he simply wanted to bow down to Holden Nie - this is the gospel for foodies!
He looked at Ethan Ye again and suddenly thought, my god, cooking is indeed a necessary skill for murder, arson and home life! Not only can it conquer a man's heart, but it is also conducive to the harmony of marriage and the harmony of husband and wife, and it can even save a love that has been broken into pieces!
Holden Nie tried to use a table of food to make Ethan Ye so drunk that he would forget about the questions Holden Nie had not explained. The three people present knew this Sima Zhao's behavior. But it must be said that it did have a certain effect to some extent.
At least after dinner, when Holden Nie shamelessly asked Ethan Ye, "Wife, can I stay here?", Ethan Ye just snorted coldly and went into the bedroom, locking him out. This was much better than just kicking him out the door!
Ethan Ye leaned against the window of the room, looking outside in a daze.
He seems to be a person who doesn't care about anything, but in fact he is the most conflicted and extreme one - either you make up a lie so that I can't find any loopholes, or you tell me everything, without leaving out a word.
But Holden Nie came to him without even making up a lie to cover it up. This attitude of covering up, hesitating, and obviously hiding something made him very upset.
He knew that the problem that made Holden Nie speechless must be a very thorny one, and judging from his previous appearance, it seemed that he had not yet been able to completely solve it.
No matter what happened, he was willing to bear it together. They were both men, so why should Ethan Ye be excluded by someone? Partners should share the joys and sorrows, right? !
Outside the door, Holden Nie looked at the tightly closed door and breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally I'm staying..."
Jasper Luo squinted at him and said, "Why don't you just tell me what you want to say? It's not like you don't know his personality."
Holden Nie waved his hand: "Hey - this time is different. To be honest, I haven't decided whether to come to him now... Forget it, I won't say it anymore."
"Hiss---" Jasper Luo folded his arms and looked at him, "I just don't understand, could it be that you have killed someone or set a fire? Is there anything you can't tell him?"
Holden Nie twitched his lips: ...
"Even if he softens his heart and doesn't ask you anymore, he won't be able to let go of this knot until you explain it to him clearly."
Holden Nie sighed: "I know, he will probably treat me like air tomorrow after he recovers from the shock."
Jasper Luo: "I can't help you with this matter, you're on your own, buddy."
Holden Nie said "hmm".
"Oh, right!" Jasper Luo recalled something and asked, "Have you recovered from your illness? You won't get sick one day and run naked on the street and embarrass Ethan Ye, right?"
Holden Nie: ...
"I'm telling you, I'm not advertising or bragging, if you're not fully recovered, our consulting office is still quite good. If you come, you can get a 15% discount. It's better to act than to be tempted~!"
Holden Nie: ... Damn, you are the one who should be kicked out!
