Chapter 311: Coaxed by his Wife

It was all the misunderstanding. This was Lyca's first thoughts when she woke up the next day. She became too full and just like a pig, she immediately fell asleep on the comfortable bed. Surely, her husband wouldn't blame her, right? She stared at Shen Qui's sleeping face.

It was too peaceful, too beautiful. Ah, she couldn't afford it. She couldn't afford to make this man mad! With this in mind, Lyca cleaned herself before going to the kitchen.

"I'm sorry, what? You wanted to cook? Little Miss, how could we let a guest cook?" The Chef asked. He was already a man in his sixties with long white hair and a wrinkled face. "Moreover, what kind of dish are you planning to make?" Lyca looked thin and beautiful. The Chef also heard that this young miss grew up in another prominent family in the south. How could someone like her, who grew up pampered, knows how to cook? "Miss, this kitchen is not a playground. If you want to play, then you can just ask anyone to accompany you in— "

"I will make Dong Po Rou for my husband," Lyca said. "Mr. Chef, if something happens to the kitchen, I will pay the Chu Family. So there's no need to worry."

"…" What kind of assurance was this? "Young Miss this— "

"Well, I can always ask Old Man Chu if you want me to," Lyca said.

"I— "

"Uncle Fu, isn't this just the kitchen? Miss Lyca is our guest, just let her cook the food that she wanted to cook." Chu Munan's arrival immediately made the old man smile.

"Alright, since the young master said so." The old Chef bowed towards Chu Munan before leaving with his people.

"You wanted to cook a meal for your husband?" Chu Munan smiled. He was sleeping just now when one of the servants informed him that Lyca was walking towards the kitchen. He thought that she was hungry again. However, he heard her say that she actually wanted to cook a meal for Shen Qui?

His previous analysis immediately changed. He originally thought that Lyca was the dominant one in this marriage. It seems that his previous assumptions were wrong! "The ingredients…"

"I can find it," Lyca said. This kitchen was big with a lot of cupboards and three fridge. However, the ingredients that she wanted weren't too rare. And just as she expected, she immediately found some Pork belly, Scallions, Ginger, Wine, light and dark soy sauce, and rock sugar. With these, Lyca started making the dish for Shen Qui.

"Miss Lyca, if you don't mind…" Despite Lyca ignoring him while she was cooking, Chu Munan didn't leave the kitchen. Instead, he stood there and stared at Lyca. "I have a question."

"Hmmm."

"I don't understand why you are suddenly cooking for Mr. Shen? Do you think the food here tastes bad? Did he complain?"

"This is something a wife should do."

Chu Munan's jaw dropped. How come this differs from his previous analysis? Even the information that he gathered about Lyca and Shen Qui was enough for him to conclude that Lyca was the one wearing pants in this relationship! She was the one who grew up in a rich family. She was domineering and arrogant. She doesn't care about other people's opinions and just does whatever it is that she wanted to do.

According to the information that he gathered, there is a possibility that she just married Shen Qui because she didn't want to marry the Young Master of the Long Family! Chu Munan already looked into Shen Qui's background and discovered that the man grew up poor with his uncle. The only reason why they stopped living in the streets was because of Old Man Huang.

Clearly, Shen Qui was more inferior to Lyca in every way. Thus, he concluded that Lyca should be the one in charge of this relationship. So… why was she trying to do something like this? For some reason, a little tinge of irritation flashed in his eyes. "I would never let my wife do something like this."

"Ah, Mr. Chu… being coaxed by your wife is not a bad thing," Lyca said. "Of course, you don't have one yet, so you don't know what it feels like to be coaxed by someone."

"You — " Why does it feel like Lyca was deliberately making him angry? "You really know how to cook dishes?"

"Simple ones," Lyca said. Dong Po pork is not a complicated dish. It is just braising the pork and waiting until it's done. Would she really cook something too complicated and tiring? That is simply against Lyca's principles!

"Is this something from the south? Cooking for one's husband?" Chu Munan grew up in a rich household. Both her mother and father with busy with business every single day. The two are barely at home. Moreover, he never once taste a dish cooked by his mother! He didn't even know if his mother could cook simple dishes.

Chu Munan remembered being sick when he was younger and his mother would only drop by to ask the servants about his body. She would never cook some porridge or feed him. In this family, money is more important than making simple dishes. Chu Munan's expression changed. It seems that pretending like an inferior guy wouldn't work on a woman like Lyca.

He snorted and approached the stove. "I never expected Miss Lyca to be such a virtuous wife."

"Virtuous, yes. I am virtuous and beautiful," she answered. For a few seconds, a long stretch of silence followed her words. Lyca let out a few yawns. All this waiting game was making her sleep. Good thing, she downloaded some episodes of that TV series on her phone!

While Chu Munan was thinking about the words that he wanted to say, Lyca was already giggling because of the drama. Chu Munan squinted his eyes before he left the kitchen, leaving Lyca alone as she continued to laugh at the Queen's reaction after her first night together with the King.
