Lu Yi was immersed in a mood of happiness and bliss, completely oblivious to the subtle anger from his master, and before leaving, he didn’t forget to bow to Qin Xin at a 45-degree angle: "Miss Qin, see you tomorrow! If you have any instructions, feel free to let me know."

Nalan Ye Jue: "..."

It might be time to consider reassigning our staff stationed in Africa.

After sending Lu Yi away, he looked at Qin Xin with a pleasant expression: "What does the young lady want to eat tonight?"

Qin Xin was at a loss: "Anything will do."

She wasn’t skilled in cooking and even found it taxing to think of a dish name.

Nalan Ye Jue nodded, rolling up his shirt sleeves: "Alright. Today I’ll research and make a dish called ’Anything’."

Qin Xin and Xiao Shuang were studying in the living room while Nalan Ye Jue busied himself in the kitchen.

Soon enough, a variety of delicious and fragrant dishes appeared on the dining table.

Qin Xin was dumbfounded: "Is this... what you call anything?"

Just one dish of braised sea cucumber was far from being ’anything’.

Nalan Ye Jue picked up a piece of sea cucumber and brought it to her mouth: "Would the young lady care to try a taste?"

His actions were very gentlemanly, and he sought her permission, but for some reason, ever since he kissed her last time, as soon as she got a bit closer to him, her heart raced, feeling both exciting and dangerous.

"Sis, it’s really tasty. Hurry and try it, brother-in-law’s wrist must be tired holding the chopsticks for so long," Qin Xiaoshuang said without thinking, grabbing a piece.

Qin Xin: "..."

Lousy brother-in-law tormentor. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Since Xiao Shuang had spoken up, she couldn’t say no.

She opened her lips and bit into the piece of sea cucumber, chewing it slowly in small bites.

Nalan Ye Jue had a slight smile on his lips, intently watching her eat the sea cucumber; he just couldn’t get enough of the sight.

Qin Xiaoshuang couldn’t help but stir up the table atmosphere again: "Brother-in-law, where do you think sister is the most beautiful?"

This was an opportunity for an easy score, or maybe even a dangerous trap, so, brother-in-law, answer wisely.

Nalan Ye Jue laughed and said: "Everywhere is beautiful."

Qin Xiaoshuang: "Brother-in-law, you can’t be vague, you have to say the absolute most beautiful peak feature!"

Qin Xin inexplicably felt nervous, giving Xiao Shuang a light pat on the shoulder: "Don’t tease your brother-in-law."

What would Mr. Nalan say?

Would it be her hands, her legs, or her waist?

Who knew?

She guessed everything wrong.

Nalan Ye Jue maintained his calm demeanor, his smile growing: "The absolute most beautiful peak... young lady, I think it’s your lips."

Qin Xiaoshuang was curious: "Why?"

Nalan Ye Jue: "Because the shape of the young lady’s lips is one that makes people want to kiss them."

The words fell.

The room fell silent for a dozen seconds, digesting this truth.

Qin Xiaoshuang: "..."

Brother-in-law, please give me a toy car.

Qin Xin: "..."

Oh God, please let the man forget about that kissing incident.

＝＝

Early the next morning.

Lu Yi was already waiting at the door early.

Qin Xin and Nalan Ye Jue opened the door to leave for the company and the school, and immediately bumped into the excited and speechless Lu Yi:

"Miss Qin, you’re, you’re, you’re amazing, you guessed the suspense by Xinghe perfectly, the traitor is indeed the heroine’s forgettable father ahhhh. I was up early, waiting for the website update, watching it was incredibly satisfying."

Qin Xin gave a faint "hmm": "Have you guessed the new suspense released in the latest Chapter?

Lu Yi: "Oh, the new suspense, I’ve thought my head bald and still haven’t figured it out, Miss Qin, could you give me another hint?"

Qin Xin gave him a few subtle hints.

Beside them, Nalan Ye Jue felt very frustrated listening.

His girlfriend was having such an enthusiastic conversation with a subordinate, yet was a bit cold towards him?

What should he do to subtly attract the young lady’s attention?
