Chapter 228 - 227: The Demon Lord Ate His Beloved’s Cooking

After changing his clothes to his casual pajama, Wang Li Lei stared down at Andy who sat on the couch opposite of Xiao Yun. His cold gaze, depicted everything he want to say for the man in front of him. Crossing his arm he gaze straight at Andy who kept avoiding his eyes.

His green eyes hesitantly peeked at Xiao Yun to ask for help but Xiao Yun herself doesn't want to help him now.

"Did I come at the wrong time?" He asked.

Wang Li Lei swept his eyes over him, sending chill to the man. "What do you think?"

"Xiao Yun." Andy called weakly. Like a puppy who had been kicked horribly.

"Yes?" Xiao Yun smile to feign an oblivious expression. "I'm not helping you." She elaborated.

The puppy received two combo hit!

With the rabbit and lion across the golden-haired dog, Andy could only bend his head down. "By the way, how can Andy come in and out easily, Li Lei?" Xiao Yun asked curiously.

Wang Li Lei turned his head to the man and lifted his chin. "He named himself as your older brother."

"Even though we really don't look alike?" Xiao Yun asked again.

"Your baby picture." Wang Li Lei replied. "Also because he often come to the house, the maids thought him as my friend."

"Wait!" Andy halted. "What are you saying?! I'm your friend and her brother!"

Xiao Yun originally thought of a way to ease the tense air for Andy's sake but now, she could only retract her thought while helplessly shaking her head.

Wang Li Lei ignored the man and took the plate of Xiao Yun's food to take a fork and ate the cream pasta silently. Beside him, Xiao Yun stared at him expectantly. "How does it taste?" Xiao Yun asked hesitantly.

"Mhm." Wang Li Lei nodded. "It tastes the best." His simple words made her smile happily.

"What? Did you cook this, Xiao Yun?" Andy asked.

"Yeah!"

"I didn't know you could cook?"

"It's my first time in cooking."  Xiao Yun explained.

Andy quickly took Xiao Yun's share of food and a fork in a hurry. "Hey!" Xiao Yun exclaimed.

Andy grinned. "It wouldn't be fair if only the Vinegar Demon Lord Li Lei be the only one to eat it!"

Wang Li Lei glared at him. First he intruded their time, second, he came to eat the food Xiao Yun made for them two eat together!

This man.

"Put it down." Wang Li Lei ordered.

Andy stick his tongue out. "No!"

Little did Andy know that he was the first person who could do this too the successor of the underworld.

Without waiting for Wang Li Lei to kick him out personally, Andy quickly twirled his fork to the cream pasta and scoop it to his mouth.

Yet for a full minute, Andy froze like a statue after a single bite.

"Andy?" Xiao Yun asked. "What's wrong with him?"

"It's because your food is too delicious." Wang Li Lei replied smoothly.

"WHAT IS THIS?!" Andy shouted, placing the plate down before covering his mouth. "Xiao Yun, do you know that I will be taking this plate?! This taste! This taste!" He couldn't even describe how unpalatable the dish was.

"This is what?" Xiao Yun worriedly asked.

"It's inedible!" Andy's voice rang to Xiao Yun's ears. "It's really inedible! Even a cat food is better than this!"

"Really?" She turned toward Wang Li Lei who still calmly ate Xiao Yun's dish with his expressionless face. "Li Lei, does it taste disgusting? It's fine if you don't eat it. You don't have to eat it for my sake." She spoke worriedly, hoping the ground would eat her as she never knew that her food taste disgusting! All this time even as she ate her food, she thought it taste quiet delicious, yet after hearing Andy's remark, she could only feel apologetic to Wang Li Lei.

"It's not inedible, it's delicious." Wang Li Lei said simply before continuing.

"He's crazy." Andy sighed, "Does love work that way? It almost taste like poison."

Hearing the comments, Xiao Yun turned gloom, she placed a hand over Wang Li Lei's hand and stopped. "I will make it again. Don't force yourself."

Wang Li Lei shook his head and spoke truthfully. "It's only on the sweet side but it's delicious. I'm not lying."

Hearing the two contradicting comments, Xiao Yun tried to taste the food she made but found nothing wrong. "It tastes normal, though?"

Andy was taken aback. "You don't believe me? Is there anyone outside?!"

Jang Hyun heard Andy's voice and bobbed his head to enter the room. "Yes?"

"Com' ere." Andy called for Jang Hyun to taste the cream pasta Xiao Yun made. With a stern expression, he asked. "How does it taste?"

Jang Hyun, the poor Secretary froze at first before reading the atmosphere and guessed the food to be make by Xiao Yun. Once again, he was placed between two choice that could perhaps place him to the bottom of hell. Worriedly he spoke hesitantly. "It's only a little bit too sweet and sour and spicy and salty."

What does that even mean?! Xiao Yun scratched her head to see Jang Hyun quickly bowing his head. "Master, Young Master, and my lady. I still have some work left to do please excuse me." As he said, he quickly marched out from the room, running away from the scene with his tail between his leg.

The young lady's food is a lethal weapon! The poor Secretary would never ask the lady to cook again.

Seeing how fast Jang Hyun ran, Andy pointed his finger. "Look! You hear?! I will teach you how to cook, Xiao Yun! You can't be a bride like this! No one would want to take a wife who can't cook!" He spoke like a mother.

Xiao Yun puffed her cheeks. "Really?"

"No." Wang Li Lei denied. "I will still take Xiao Yun as my bride. Also, I can teach you how to cook, Xiao Yun."

"Mhm!" Xiao Yun lit up from Wang Li Lei's words.

"Can you even cook?" Andy skeptically asked. After seeing him eating Xiao Yun's food, he doubt that his taste bud would be different from Xiao Yun.

"Of course." He rose his brows, "Do you want to try, Xiao Yun?"

"The food that you make?! Of course!" Xiao Yun replied with expectation bouncing over her face. "I will take the plates now." Xiao Yun said before leaving the room for the two man to be alone.

"Ugh, I don't even want to taste it now." Andy scoffed and added. "Anyway, when is your grandfather's and grandmother's anniversary?"

"Next week." Wang Li Lei replied.

A week left, a week left until he declared to the world how Xiao Yun is his and a week left to his provocation toward Choi Yeon Jun.

Andy read his expression and stood up from his place before patting his shoulder. Andy's green eyes stared at his childhood friend's fiancé and smiled. "It isn't my place to protect her like before, so protect and take care of her well."

"You don't have to tell me that." Wang Li Lei spoke. Even if he has to use his own life, he would do everything for her. But knowing the girl, she wouldn't agree with the idea of him using his life to protect her, so he promise to choose a way for them to protect each other without losing one another.

Andy chuckled. "That's great. Tell Xiao Yun I'll be going back now."

"Mhm." Wang Li Lei agreed.
