2459 Side Story: Ji Xiuran 4
Worriless Nie stared at the man’s bewitching eyes which were as vast as the galaxy. For some reason, she felt her heart starting to race and a blush creeping over her cheeks.How could this man be so good-looking? He was utterly spellbinding…
“Play with what?”
Worriless Nie hastily looked away.
When Ji Xiuran saw Worriless Nie’s reaction, he chuckled and dotingly patted her on the head like he did when they were young. “I can do anything you want.”
“I’m hungry. Cook a meal for me,” Worriless Nie said.
“I don’t know how.” Ji Xiuran shook his head.
Worriless Nie: “…”
“But I can learn.” Ji Xiuran smiled at her. “Follow me.”
“Where are we going?” Worriless Nie asked with intrigue.
“The kitchen.” Ji Xiuran then walked away.
…
In the kitchen of the Ji Estate:
“Young Master!”
When all the servants bustling around the kitchen saw Ji Xiuran, they were astonished. Why did Young Master come to this kind of place?
“Miss Worriless.”
Everyone promptly greeted Worriless Nie as well.
“Are you hungry, Young Master? What do you want to eat? We’ll prepare it immediately.”
Ji Xiuran replied, “No need. All of you can leave.”
“Yes.”
They didn’t know why, but no one dared to question or disobey Ji Xiuran’s orders.
Soon, Ji Xiuran and Worriless Nie were the only two people left in the enormous kitchen.
After the servants retreated, Ji Xiuran started searching for ingredients in the kitchen.
“I remember… You like to eat sweet-and-sour spare ribs.” Ji Xiuran turned to Worriless Nie.
“You know what I like to eat…?” Worriless Nie found that strange.
Ji Xiuran merely smiled but didn’t respond.
Worriless Nie watched the man bustling around the kitchen, acting completely unlike the famous demon of the Ji family who awed the people of the Independent State. He was also acting unlike a man who was about to become the emperor of the entire underground dynasty and didn’t have any bit of arrogance. He was akin to a boy-next-door who shone like the sun, both warm and comforting.
In this world… as long as she had him, as long as he was here, all would be fine…
From the beginning, he was the only one she wanted.
“Brother Xiuran, you aren’t really cooking, right?”
Worriless Nie stared at Ji Xiuran.
“Why can’t I?” Ji Xiuran held an apron in his hand and turned to her.
“But you’re Ji Xiuran. If you really cook for me, I’m afraid I couldn’t withstand it.” Worriless Nie chuckled.
“There’s a condition, of course.” Ji Xiuran’s smile—warm as the spring breeze—intoxicated and mesmerized the girl.
“What condition?” she asked.
“Come here,” Ji Xiuran said.
Worriless Nie automatically walked over.
“Help me tie it on.” Ji Xiuran handed the apron to Worriless Nie.
“But I won’t help you get dressed.” Worriless Nie gave him a crooked grin. “If you want me to help you strip though, I can consider that.”
“Okay.” Ji Xiuran wore an inscrutable smile. To the girl, this smile was devoid of all warmth, replaced by wicked seductiveness instead.
The girl originally held an advantageous and offensive position, but when she saw him walking closer to her step by step, she panicked instantly, and her eyes darted everywhere.
When the man approached her, he grasped her hands.
Worriless Nie was fretting over what to do, but Ji Xiuran simply handed the apron to her. “Be good. Help me tie it on.”
“Huh… Oh…”
A blush had subconsciously overtaken Worriless Nie’s face. After the competition just now, she was utterly defeated and could only obediently help him tie on the apron.
…
After much hard work, Ji Xiuran handed a plate of sweet and sour spare ribs to Worriless Nie along with a bowl of rice.
“So delicious…”
“Eat some vegetables too.”
Seeing the trace of warmth in his eyes, the girl felt like she possessed the whole world.
