267: Chapter 245: Is This Really Your First Ti Cooking?
The figure in black clothes directly jumped down and dashed away at high speed under the stunned gazes of the bystanders.
What’s going on?
Did that person just jump down from the building?
The bystanders hadn’t even reacted when they saw another person jump down from the building.
“Bang”
It seed as if the ground trembled, then that person chased after the one in black, as fast as flying.
This is crazy!
How co these people jump from such heights without any accidents?
An old lady took off her glasses and rubbed them hard while a young man also shook his head violently.
He really couldn’t stay up late anymore; he was even hallucinating in broad daylight, imagining people jumping from high places without getting hurt.
Hallucination, yes, it must be a hallucination.
anwhile, Li Chen chased after the person in black, but this area was essentially a business district with many buildings.
After making several turns and passing through a few malls, Li Chen had no idea where the other had gone.
Standing on the street, Li Chen frowned and watched the passersby, knowing he had lost his target.
The other person was absolutely too cunning.
If the space had been more open and less crowded, Li Chen would never have lost them.
But in this sea of people and without any True Qi left in her body, he couldn’t trace her through the seal.
With no other options, Li Chen had to go back.
At this mont, only one thod remained.
Li Chen took out his phone and called Ouyang Wan’er.
Soon, Ouyang Wan’er’s crisp voice ca through the phone.
“Brother Cheen.”
Her words were filled with joy, but imdiately followed by a hint of grievance, lanting that Brother Cheen had not contacted her for so long.
“Wan’er, are you busy?
If not, help check on soone,” Li Chen said.
Ouyang Wan’er, sensing the urgency in Li Chen’s words, quickly asked, “What’s the matter, Brother Cheen?”
“Help check on soone,” Li Chen repeated, then told Ouyang Wan’er everything that had just happened.
After understanding the situation, Ouyang Wan’er promptly said, “Okay, I’ll have soone from Dragon Soul investigate it, and I’ll call Brother Cheen as soon as I have the results.”
Li Chen nodded, as he was quite confident in Ouyang Wan’er.
The two talked a bit more before hanging up, and Ouyang Wan’er imdiately set aside her work then called Qilin Princess.
Li Chen first went to see Zhong Tian, where the effects of the anesthetic had worn off.
Sitting on the bed with a pained expression, Zhong Tian received so comforting words from Li Chen, promising that he would bring the Ginseng Doll back in a few days.
Reassured not to worry, after so persuasion, Li Chen then returned to the villa.
In the villa, Li Chen sat on the sofa, trying to piece everything together.
He had just returned from North Arica when soone targeted the Ginseng Doll.
This was definitely targeted, but who could it be?
Frowning, Li Chen couldn’t figure it out.
If it was an ordinary person, they would never be able to catch the Ginseng Doll.
The other party must have so special technique, and those who knew this technique were definitely not simple.
After thinking for a while, Li Chen shook his head; continuing this way was no use.
He could only pin his hopes on Dragon Soul.
As a special organization in Huaxia, they had formidable abilities, and since this was Dragon Soul’s territory, there shouldn’t be too many issues.
He just hoped it would be quick.
At that mont, the door of the villa was opened, and Li Chen turned his head, surprised to see Lin Yi had returned.
Pushing aside the worries in his mind, Li Chen stood up with a slight smile: “Beautiful wife, you’re back?”
Lin Yi walked in with a bag and smiled at Li Chen, saying, “I bought a lot of groceries today; I’ll cook.”
“Great, I haven’t tasted my beautiful wife’s cooking yet.” Li Chen chuckled, then hugged Lin Yi from behind, whispering in her ear, “Baby, Xiaoxiao is asleep in school today.”
At those words, Lin Yi’s cheeks turned slightly red.
The scene of her taking out presents from the bag today flashed in her mind, how embarrassing!
“Baby, are you looking forward to it?” Li Chen chuckled, his hands began to wander on Lin Yi’s body.
“It’s not yet ti,” Lin Yi lightly swatted away Li Chen’s roving hands, then she headed to the kitchen.
Li Chen chuckled and followed her.
“Don’t ss around here; this is the kitchen.
Otherwise, you might not get to eat tonight,” Lin Yi warned, waving her spatula and feigning fierceness.
Li Chen, seeing Lin Yi’s adorable deanor, laughed out loud.
Why are you so cute even when you pretend to be angry?
“I might not need to eat.” Li Chen winked, “Isn’t having you enough?”
Li Chen smiled slightly, causing Lin Yi’s cheeks to blush again—she could never out talk him.
Thus, Lin Yi ignored Li Chen and busied herself, starting to cut and wash the groceries she had carefully bought.
“Where’s Aunt Wang?” Li Chen asked.
“Isn’t she here either?”
“Aunt Wang had sothing to attend to today,” Lin Yi replied as she continued her work.
“Does that an it’s just the two of us tonight?” Hearing this, Li Chen’s heart leapt, and he imdiately walked over to Lin Yi.
However, before Li Chen could approach, Lin Yi handed over the vegetables in the basket.
“Help wash the vegetables.”
Well, if I can’t eat my wife’s tofu, helping her wash the vegetables is also fine.
Li Chen was very pleased.
Whenever he was with Lin Yi, he felt relaxed, and all his worries and troubles were thrown to the back of his mind.
After washing the vegetables, Lin Yi began to prepare to cook.
However, after thinking for a mont, she turned her head and said sowhat sheepishly, “Why don’t you step outside and wait?”
Li Chen was puzzled.
Can’t I just watch from here?
“Go outside for a while,” Lin Yi cooed, then pushed Li Chen out of the kitchen.
Alright, waiting outside wasn’t a big deal.
Li Chen sat by the side, then watched as Lin Yi bustled about in the kitchen wearing her apron.
Finally, after about an hour, Lin Yi brought the dishes out.
“It’s ready, let’s eat.” Lin Yi sat down beaming, and Li Chen joined her.
“Try it.” Lin Yi looked at Li Chen expectantly.
Li Chen glanced at the dishes on the table and imdiately felt dizzy.
Uh, what is this black thing?
Isn’t this green mush the sa vegetables I just washed?
And this, this sticky clump, sweet and sour ribs?
Li Chen felt a wave of embarrassnt.
Why didn’t it look like the dishes Aunt Wang made?
Nevertheless, under Lin Yi’s expectant gaze, Li Chen still picked up his chopsticks and grabbed a dish, then took a bite.
Instantly, the intense sweetness spread in Li Chen’s mouth, and the undissolved sugar crystals made his teeth crunch.
Too sweet!
So sweet he wanted to throw up.
Just as Li Chen was about to instinctively spit it out, Lin Yi asked with concern from across the table, “How is it?
Is it good?”
Is it good?
Li Chen opened his eyes wide and exaggeratedly forced a smile while chewing, “It’s, it’s delicious.
My beautiful wife’s cooking is really sothing else.”
Seeing Li Chen say this, Lin Yi’s eyes brightened.
“That’s really great.
I was worried you wouldn’t like it since it’s my first ti cooking.
It seems I do have a talent for cooking,” Lin Yi said delightedly.
What?!
First ti cooking!
First ti!
First!
…
Li Chen was utterly baffled right on the spot.
His beautiful wife was cooking for the first ti, and if he had known, he would never have let her cook; ordering takeout would have been far better.
He finally understood why his beautiful wife asked him to leave the kitchen—it was because of this.
After struggling to swallow the sweet and sour ribs, Li Chen felt like his entire mouth was about to dissolve and hurriedly looked for so water.
Seeing the seaweed and chicken soup on the table, he poured so and drank it down.
“Pff”
As soon as he took a sip, Li Chen almost spat it out.
Damn, was there an undertaste of raw at in this soup?
Was it not cooked through?
“Doesn’t taste good?” Lin Yi looked at Li Chen nervously; it was her first ti cooking, all for him.
“It tastes good, good, it was just too hot earlier.” Li Chen quickly forced a smile, seeing Lin Yi’s smiling face made him internally speechless.
Oh, the agony, he had to drink it whether he liked it or not.
After drinking the soup, Li Chen looked at the table full of dishes with a hidden dread.
Dark cuisine, definitely the legendary dark cuisine.
But, not eating was not an option.
This was food made by his beautiful wife, a table filled with love.
How could he not eat it?
Li Chen was on the verge of tears inside.
Seeing Lin Yi’s pleased face as she placed another dish into his bowl: “Here, try this.”
Looking at the bizarrely black lump of at in his bowl, Li Chen looked up at Lin Yi’s hopeful little eyes, swallowed hard, then with a resigned courage, picked up that piece of at and ate it.
With his eyes tightly closed, savoring the strange taste of the at, Li Chen chewed hard for tens of seconds before finally swallowing it down.
“It’s delicious.” Li Chen said with a sincerely warm smile.
My goodness, he definitely wouldn’t let his beautiful wife cook again—better he do it himself.
Li Chen silently wept inside, but it was true, Lin Yi had been the young miss of the Li Family before coming to Linchuan, where Aunt Wang had been the one to cook for her, so she really hadn’t handled these kinds of things herself before.
This ti cooking herself, well, although the taste of the dishes was a bit off, it was also a testant to Lin Yi’s caring intentions.
Lin Yi watched Li Chen wolfing down the food, her face showing a happy smile.
Won, after all, love watching n eat what they’ve cooked.
This al finally ended, and Li Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, he had practiced the Mysterious Technique, otherwise, he might have ended up dead, and fortunately, Lin Yi had eaten before coming back and had not tasted it, so Li Chen managed not to give anything away.
