NOVEL NEXT Chapter 27: Chapter 27 Pink Slippers
Lin Yi shrugged nonchalantly and said, "Anyway, it's just to wear at home. I don't have to wear it out every day, so as long as it's chosen by my wife, I will gladly accept it!"
Han Xuewei's expression instantly became very joyful, "I knew it, you are the best, hubby!"
Lin Yi, of course, loved hearing his wife's praise; his heart swelled with pride every time he heard it.
After that, the two of them went to the clothing section and carefully picked out matching couple's hoodies for going out.
Then, things got out of control. From toothbrushes and water cups to pajamas and underwear, the young couple almost completely switched to matching couple's items.
Seeing the smile on his wife's face, Lin Yi felt very content.
After all, as a man, this was the first time he had gone shopping with a woman other than his mother!
Even Lin Yi himself felt that this was the first time he had been so patient while shopping with a woman.
After about two hours of shopping, their cart was almost full, and the couple pushed it to the self-checkout area.
Scan to pay complete!
Just as they completed the checkout, the system notification chimed in again!
"Ding! Congratulations, host. The hidden task of taking your wife to the mall has been completed. You will now receive double the amount of your bill! Please sign for it!"
The next second, Lin Yi's phone received a text message!
Good Lord! It's the rhythm of spending a thousand to get back two thousand!
This hidden task is really cool!
Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder, will he ever be able to spend all this money?
When Lin Yi walked out of the supermarket carrying loads of stuff, he finally realized that their family urgently needed a car!
After leaving the supermarket, the two noticed it was already late, even past lunchtime, and it was almost 2 p.m., so the plan to go home and cook was clearly not feasible anymore.
Therefore, the young couple went to a nearby Chinese restaurant, had a quick meal, and then planned to go back home for a beauty sleep!
So, until the sun set, Han Xuewei was still immersed in her dreams, while Lin Yi got up early, planning to make a romantic candlelight dinner for his wife with the ingredients they bought today!
Lin Yi busied himself in the kitchen alone, completely unaware that Han Xuewei, at some point, had already changed into the matching couple's outfit they bought today and was now in the kitchen.
"Honey, does this matching couple's outfit we bought today fit me well?"
Urged by his wife, Lin Yi slipped on the pair of pink and blue matching slippers. This was his first time wearing slippers of these colors, and he felt somewhat unaccustomed to it at first.
He indeed hadn't expected to ever use anything pink in his life.
The wife was clearly satisfying her girlish dreams!
Lin Yi obediently put on the matching couple's outfit and pinched Han Xuewei's cheek, which was pink with excitement, "My wife looks good in anything! I've never tried this color before! Isn't it too pinkish?"
Seeing the slightly strange color, the couple couldn't help but laugh.
After all, Lin Yi was a man of staunch straight-forwardness; who would have thought that he would one day be wearing clothes in shades of pink!
Thinking about it, although strange, was indeed very warm and cozy!
Believing that one of life's greatest happinesses is to live and eat with the person you love, wearing couple outfits and experiencing life together!
Han Xuewei had been a bit nervous before, worrying that Lin Yi wouldn't wear the pink slippers!
But unexpectedly, her husband had changed into them without any hesitation, so warmth flooded her heart as well.
Han Xuewei also noticed the savory aroma drifting from the kitchen and asked with widened eyes, "Darling, what's this delicious smell? It smells so good!"
"This is the candlelight dinner I made especially for you. It's only partly ready. Go and do something else for now, and I'll call you to eat in twenty minutes!"
"Wife, how done do you want your steak? These marinated steaks cook quickly—it's the highlight of tonight's dinner."
Moreover, Lin Yi had already prepared a corn and radish pork bone soup that was about to be served. This soup with nourishing effects was very nutritious and was often made by Aunt Wang.
Half the salad was already prepared. Now all that was left was to wait for the soup to be served, fry two steaks, and the candlelight dinner would be a great success!
It was undeniable that this system of his was simply incredible, enabling him to easily learn high-level cooking! Now, give him any ingredient and he could create delicious dishes!
It was just like cheating!
Lin Yi, with one hand holding the salad bowl and the other gently pushing his wife out of the kitchen, kept saying, "You don't have to do anything right now, go watch TV! Don't come in while I'm cooking, okay? The fumes from frying the steaks are strong, and that could be bad for your health or even make you nauseous. Just wait for me to call you to eat!"
Thus, Han Xuewei was pushed by her husband onto the couch and forced to start watching TV as Lin Yi alone headed to the kitchen, as if heading into battle!
About fifteen minutes later, everything was ready!
Lin Yi brought all the dishes to the table, and of course, Han Xuewei couldn't resist the temptation of the aroma and hurried over to the dining table!
"This is fantastic! It smells so good!"
Han Xuewei immediately locked her gaze on the two pieces of steak on the table, full of admiration!
No wonder her husband had been so secretive and hadn't let her help. He was preparing this lavish dinner!
For a moment, her eyes brimmed with tears, emotionally saying, "Dear, you are really too good to me!"
"I suddenly realize that I am really so lucky! I married a husband who loves me deeply!"
Lin Yi, smiling, stroked her forehead and softly replied, "All right! I know! You have to eat even if you love me! Wait for me for a moment, and I'll bring the last dish!"
Once they took their seats, Lin Yi thoughtfully cut the steak for his wife, ceremoniously lit the candle, and then brought out a bottle of red wine.
"Wife, I won't pour you any red wine, okay? After all, you are pregnant now—just drink this warm lemon water! Here's a toast to our beautiful life!"
Han Xuewei picked up the lemon water and toasted to a happy life!
"I will love you well and fulfill my duties as a wife—cheers!"
Lin Yi, looking at the dishes on the table, laughed and said, "You've been waiting for a long time, haven't you? My little glutton must be impatient by now—let's dig in!"
Han Xuewei, chuckling, replied, "That's because my husband's cooking skills are amazing! Darling, do you know? The food you make is even tastier than that of a five-star hotel!"
