nZi Yi hastily chased after him, but she could no longer see the masked man.
nJust as she was about to sense where he had gone, she saw several cars speeding in her direction.
nThe front car stopped in front of her.
nZi Yi narrowed her eyes as she saw the man who alighted. “Lu Jingye?”
nLu Jingye checked her all over and nodded as he asked, “My men found out that two killers came to your place. Are you alright?”
nZi Yi looked at him with her eyes flashing like lightning.
nThis man’s timing was impeccable. He had arrived just on time after the fight ended.
n“What’s wrong?”
n“They were taken away.” Zi Yi touched her stomach and recalled that she had yet to eat. She turned around, walked to the gates and was about to shut it, when she noticed Lu Jingye standing behind her.
nZi Yi’ turned around and with a smile, she asked, “Aren’t you going to send someone to chase after them?”
n“They are already chasing.”
nAfter he said that, he lowered his head and looked at her. “You haven’t eaten?”
n“That’s right.” Zi Yi smiled like a fox. “Do you want to come in?”
nLu Jingye pursed his lips and stared into her eyes for a few seconds before he nodded.
nZi Yi made space for him, turned around, and walked inside.
nLu Jingye followed behind her.
nWhen they arrived in the living room, Zi Yi said to the housekeeping robot, “There’s nothing for you to do here. Go out.”
n“Yes, Master.”
nAfter the several robots left, Zi Yi blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at him expectantly. “Lu Jingye, there are ingredients in my house but nobody to cook.”
nLu Jingye’s fingers twitched. All of a sudden, he had the urge to mess up her hair.
nWhen did the young lady learn to act cutely?
n“What ingredients are there?”
nLu Jingye took off his suit jacket and placed it on the sofa before walking into the kitchen. Zi Yi followed behind him and said, “I don’t know. The robots placed the order online.”
nZi Yi stopped when she followed him into the kitchen.
nLu Jingye turned to look at her. He did not intend to let her skip out on the preparation work this time. “Come in and wash the vegetables.”
n“I don’t think… that it’s a good idea?”
nLu Jingye first steamed the rice. He then checked out what ingredients there were in the plastic bag. He took out two green peppers and a handful of vegetables and passed them to her.
nZi Yi took the vegetables and stood near the sink as she washed them carefully.
nLu Jingye stood next to her and sliced the meat.
nThere was no conversation between them. While she was washing, Zi Yi suddenly recalled the dozens of clothes and shoes she received and looked at Lu Jingye’s side profile.
nThe light landed on his face, leaving behind a shadow. It added a trace of mystery to his handsome face.
nHe who had an aura of nobleness and strictness did not appear out of place in the kitchen. Instead, he gave off an indescribable charm.
n“Lu Jingye.” Zi Yi suddenly called out to him.
n“Yes?” he responded with a deep and magnetic voice, causing Zi Yi’s heart to quiver.
nShe gazed at him with a light in her eyes and said, “It would definitely be great to have a man like you as a boyfriend.”
nAfter she said that, she placed the vegetables in his hand and was about to pounce on him.
nLu Jingye stopped her with a solemn expression. “Continue washing the vegetables.”
n“…”
nAll of her lovely thoughts were dispelled by his serious voice.
nZi Yi pouted discontentedly. “You are so boring.”
nHaving said that, she continued washing the vegetables.
nAfter half an hour, Lu Jingye brought out the last dish.
nZi Yi had already set the table.
nShe sat down, looked at Lu Jingye, and asked half-heartedly, “Lu Jingye, do you wanna join me?”
nOriginally, he was not hungry. When he saw her cute little expression, he sat down.
nHe picked up the chopsticks, grabbed some food, and finished it before he responded with a hum.
nZi Yi: “…”
