Li Beijue couldn’t believe it.

It seemed that he had really been too indulgent with her recently; this woman was once again going beyond bounds! A thank-you meal that he had to serve himself!

Chi Enen ignored him and turned back to the pot.

This woman!

Li Beijue called out to her in dissatisfaction, “Chi Enen!”

The woman who was adding salt to the soup acted as if she hadn’t heard.

Li Beijue’s pupils darkened, as he suppressed the little flame of irritation that had flared up. Watching her busy silhouette in the kitchen, he couldn’t understand why, but just now, his displeasure had dissipated like smoke. His heart felt as if it had been wrapped in something soft, indescribably warm.

It was a warmth that filled him with an urge to possess this woman.

He furrowed his brow at the sight of the dishes on the marble countertop and then at the bustling silhouette of the little lady, pursed his thin lips tightly, and silently passed by her to carry the dishes out.

Chi Enen hadn’t expected him to help out so easily, felt a touch of surprise, but soon her attention returned to the dish she was preparing.

Screw it.

After finishing the last dish, Chi Enen quickly tidied up the kitchen and carried the dishes out.

“The Spicy Boiled Fish is ready-”

As she placed it down, the living room was immediately filled with the spicy aroma of chili. Li Beijue’s eyebrows wrinkled upon seeing the red layer of chili floating on top.

Chi Enen knew he didn’t like spicy food very much, so she calmly placed the Boiled Fish on her side.

Besides the Boiled Fish, everything else was non-spicy. She loved chilies; Li Beijue didn’t. As long as she enjoyed it, that was all that mattered.

Chi Enen thought she had it figured out, but a certain person never played by conventional rules. Her Boiled Fish had just been set down when the man, with furrowed eyebrows, took it to the other side.

“What are you doing? Don’t you dislike spicy food?” She couldn’t help blurting out anxiously.

At her words, Li Beijue glared at her with his falcon-like eyes, saying coldly, “I thought you knew I don’t like spicy food.”

“…” Chi Enen choked on her words, wisely choosing not to respond at that moment.

Fortunately, Li Beijue was in a good mood today; he let it go with just a mention and didn’t pursue it further. Elegantly, he picked up the chopsticks and tried a piece of the Slippery Mushroom and Abalone.

The Abalone Slices were overcooked, there was too much ham, and not enough starch… It could be said to be quite mediocre, miles behind a top chef’s creation.

Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t have tasted more than one chopstick’s worth and would have thrown the rest away. But this moment, for some reason, even though the dish before his eyes was far from perfect, it easily captivated his taste buds.

“How is it?” Chi Enen tried hard to tell herself not to care, after all, she had slaved away all morning to make it; yet her bright eyes couldn’t help but fill with anticipation.

Li Beijue glanced at her and picked up another chopstick’s worth, “Don’t you know the rule of ‘no talking while eating’?”

She knew it!

The next second.

“So-so.”

Chi Enen suddenly looked at him, catching sight of his awkwardly taut face, as if the person who just spoke wasn’t himself.

She couldn’t help but lower her head and laugh, her mood brightening along with it.

After the meal was finished, the table was swept clean of food.

Chi Enen volunteered to tidy up the table, then negotiated with the man on the sofa, “Li Beijue, I want to go out for a bit this afternoon.”

“Where to?”

“I want to give Anxin her gift.”

Li Beijue knew who she was talking about and looked up dissatisfied, his falcon-like eyes on her, “You bought her a gift?”

What about his?
