Chapter 261 He Xinyan's Meal

Yi Qiansi chuckled and crossed his arms together, "Yes, but we are also here so you could fulfill your promise to me."

He Xinyan looked up at him, "What promise?"

"Did you forget already? Remember when we returned to Country Z, you said that the next time we meet, you would treat me to a meal?"

It took several seconds before He Xinyan finally remembered what he was talking about.

She responded with one word, "No."

Yi Qiansi raised one eyebrow, "But you promised. You can't break your promise." 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

"Um, yes I can," He Xinyan replied, crossing her arms together.

"That's too bad. I didn't order for lunch to be made. I was hoping you would be able to make it and fulfill your promise. I guess we will have to starve then."

He Xinyan thought for a few seconds before a small smile appeared on her face, "I cook?"

Yi Qiansi nodded his head.

He Xinyan chuckled softly and stood up, "Okay! I should fulfill my promise. I'll cook for lunch."

Yi Qiansi was slightly surprised that she agreed, and he stood up as well, "I'll take you to the kitchen."

He Xinyan entered the kitchen and forced Yi Qiansi to leave because she had to "focus on her cooking".

She also forced all the chefs inside to leave so she was alone inside the enormous kitchen.

He Xinyan smirked as she rolled her sleeves up and tied up her hair. She cook?! Okay! She'll make sure to cook up a "delicious" meal for him!

She walked over to the refrigerator and pulled out a tomato. She then looked for pasta noodles and found some frozen shrimp defrosting inside the sink.

Before long, she had begun cooking.

Not sure how to make tomato sauce, He Xinyan just blended three tomatoes up in a blender and added some salt.

She then dumped the pasta noodles into a frying pan, but to her surprise, they didn't soften. She waited for a long time, but the pasta noodles got burnt!

Confused, He Xinyan peeked her head out of the door to see that Yi Qiansi was right outside, leaning against the wall.

She glanced at him and held up the batch of spaghetti noodles, "How am I supposed to cook this?"

Yi Qiansi blinked a few times as he looked over at the hard noodles He Xinyan was holding, "You are making pasta?"

"That doesn't matter. I fried it, but it didn't turn soft." He Xinyan scratched the back of her head confusedly, a little embarrassed for asking what seemed to be a simple question.

Yi Qiansi widened his eyes slightly before he couldn't hold it in and burst into laughter. He hadn't laughed genuinely in a long time, and it was a really weird feeling when he began laughing again.

"You tried to fry the noodles?"

He Xinyan frowned slightly as she angrily said, "Stop laughing. Hurry up and tell me if you want to eat!"

"You boil them in water with a pinch of salt," Yi Qiansi said helplessly, and then the next second, the door had closed again and He Xinyan's small face disappeared.

Yi Qiansi stared at the door for a long time as his smile disappeared.

They were the same.

So why did Gu Yechen get to live in the sunshine?

After almost an hour, He Xinyan finally finished her two plates of spaghetti and she took a look at the noodles.

"Perfect!"

She then carried them outside and walked straight past Yi Qiansi, "Follow me! Let's go eat lunch!'

Yi Qiansi couldn't help but laugh at her proud attitude, and it almost felt like she was the boss around here.

However, he still obediently followed her back to the dining room. She placed one plate in front of him and one in front of herself.

The two of them sat down and they both picked up their forks, but He Xinyan didn't start eating right away.

"Why aren't you eating?" Yi Qiansi asked, already ready to take his first bite.

He Xinyan chuckled fakely, "You can have the first bite!"

Was she stupid?! Why would she eat her own food? Hmph! He can eat! Let him eat as much as he wants and hopefully die from food poisoning!

Yi Qiansi raised one eyebrow before shoving a large bite of the tomato spaghetti into his mouth.

He Xinyan waited for him to spit it out but several seconds passed, and he ate another bite after another.

He Xinyan's smirk disappeared as she dropped her fork, "Um. . . Do you like it?"

Yi Qiansi looked up and nodded his head, "It's good."

He Xinyan blinked a few times and reached for her fork again, slowly taking a bite.

"Blah!" She immediately spit it out because the noodles were so salty but the sauce was completely tasteless, "This is disgusting!"

Yi Qiansi swallowed another bite.

"How are you still eating it?! It tastes horrible!"

Yi Qiansi continued to eat before he took a small sip of water and smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, "I lost my sense of taste when I was quite young."

The hand He Xinyan was using to hold her fork froze as she looked up in surprise. When she noticed the sadness in his eyes, she didn't know what to say for a few seconds.

Although she didn't like him, she couldn't help but feel a little pity for him at the moment. No sense of taste?! He Xinyan would have no meaning in life anymore if that happened to her!

Food equals life! It must be horrible to not be able to taste all the delicious food in the world!

"How did it happen?" She asked as she put down her fork and began drinking water.

Yi Qiansi grinned, "It was just an. . . accident a while ago. I'm used to it now. However, I still think the noodles are good."

"Ch! You can't even taste it!" He Xinyan rolled her eyes as she looked over at Yi Qiansi's plate to see him take the last bite.

"You're finished already?!"

Yi Qiansi licked his lips and gulped down the leftover water in his cup, his extremely sexy Adam's apple bobbing up and down as he did so.

When he finished, he smiled and wiped his lips elegantly with his napkin.

"You didn't eat lunch yet. Since you cooked lunch for me, how about. . . I cook lunch for you."

He Xinyan was about to say no but Yi Qiansi had already stood up and was walking over to the kitchen.

"Um. . . It's okay -"

But Yi Qiansi didn't hear as he disappeared into the kitchen.

Half an hour later, he stepped out, carrying two plates in each hand, "Come on, let's go eat."

When they arrived at the table, He Xinyan saw that he had made several dishes she usually enjoyed, including a bowl of noodles, fried chicken, steak, and a plate of pasta that looked much better than the one she had made.

"You know how to cook?" He Xinyan asked in surprise.

Yi Qiansi nodded his head, "I learned after I had lost my sense of taste."

He Xinyan wasn't planning to eat originally because she didn't want to eat food cooked by him, but she was starving and the food looked extremely captivating.

She looked up in a last attempt to reject the food, but when she saw the eager and anticipating expression on his face, she couldn't say no.

Ah, He Xinyan! Why are you so nice?! Can't you learn from Gu Yechen?! Plus, he is locking you in here! You shouldn't treat him nicely!

In the end, she ended up taking a bite, planning to only eat one bite. But after one bite she couldn't control herself.

It was so good! So delicious!

But of course, it wasn't as good as the food Gu Yechen made!

Still, maybe because she was way too hungry, but she ended up eating a lot. Yi Qiansi patiently watched her eat with a proud and gentle smile on his face.

"Do you like it?"

He Xinyan nodded her head and said through a large mouthful of food, "It's pretty good. But not the best I have ever had."

Yi Qiansi raised one eyebrow, "What's the best food you have ever had?"

Without even hesitating, He Xinyan said, "Of course the food my husband cooks!"

She knew that Yi Qiansi had some history with Gu Yechen, but she didn't care! She wasn't afraid to compliment her husband in front of him! Hmph!

Yi Qiansi's expression darkened slightly and he looked down. But the next second he looked back up, there was a smile again.

"Eat slowly. It's all yours."

He Xinyan nodded her head, "How can you cook so well when you don't even have taste?"

Yi Qiansi tilted his head slightly, "Talent."

"Ch!" She rolled her eyes and continued to eat. After a long time, He Xinyan finally finished all the food on the table except a small portion of steak she really couldn't finish because she was way too full. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

Yi Qiansi handed her a napkin and she wiped her lips. Noticing that Yi Qiansi was in quite a good mood, she cleared her throat and asked:

"So. . . When do you plan on letting me go? I can't stay here forever, right?"

Yi Qiansi's smile stiffened and he stood up, stacking the plates together, "You don't have to think about that."

He Xinyan frowned and put down her fork. She glanced at him one last time before turning around, "I'm returning to my room."

Yi Qiansi watched her leave and gulped. He sighed before looking back up, his eyes returning to it's usual cold self.

What should he expect?

He should be used to it by now.
