Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Zheng said many things, and everyone stopped eating to listen attentively. They realized Su Binglan had developed tofu and that one could use tofu to make many delicacies, as it was delicious and nutritious.
Also, they learned there were many delicacies in Tenghe Town, like stinky tofu. Lin Zheng told them how delicious stinky tofu was—everyone yearned to try it.
Lin Zhengs mouth even got dry from talking so much. He wanted to eat, but when he noticed everyone looking at him with shining eyes as he spoke, he felt the urge to continue talking.
Wei Cheng suddenly realized something and nodded. “l remember hearing something about that but didn’t pay much attention then.”
He had heard people discussing these things before when treating them. He felt his patients were exaggerating at that time. He wondered how such delicious food could exist.
Finally, he realized his patients were not exaggerating. Then he looked at Wei
Ying and asked, “Have you heard of these things?”
Wei Ying nodded. “I’ve heard of them. They’re famous, after all.”
However, he had never eaten such delicacies. He also did not expect to be able to eat them finally.
Meanwhile, Blue Two and Blue Three behaved like typical Shadow Guards and ate quietly. After all, they had grown accustomed to silence. Of course, they also thought the soup and egg wraps were delicious.
Although they could not show emotions since they were Shadow Guards, their eyes shone brightly. One knew they thought the food was delicious just by looking into their eyes.
When Lin Zheng bit into the pork rib inside the soup, he thought it was incredibly tender as it melted in his mouth. He was surprised. “Wow, the pork ribs in the soup are so tender.”
Fortunately, Su Binglan had added plenty of ribs to the soup, enough for everyone to eat.
Wei Cheng bit into an egg wrap and became excited, too. “Is there something rolled into the egg?”
He thought it was just an omelet and did not expect something to be wrapped inside.
Lin Zheng explained, “Of course. There are lettuce, chicken, and seasonings wrapped inside the egg. That’s why it tastes so good.”
He watched from the sidelines when Su Binglan cooked. She even answered every question he asked her, so he knew what was inside the egg wraps.
Wei Cheng sighed emotionally. “1 didn’t think of cooking like this before.”
‘This dish sounds straightforward, but I would’ve never thought about it anyway.’
“Don’t think it’s so easy,” Lin Zheng said, “You must control the heat so that the egg doesn’t stick to the pan. You must also maintain the eggs shape.”
He had tried cooking such dishes at home in the past, but he had trouble maintaining the egg’s shape in the pan, not to mention Su Binglan had made an enormous omelet.
“The chicken inside the wrap tastes different from your usual chicken dishes, right? Master had fried them with special seasonings to make them tastier.”
“l see. No wonder it’s so delicious.” Wei Cheng admired Su Binglan more as he spoke. Not only were Su Binglan’s medical skills unparalleled, but her cooking skills were also exceptional.
‘No wonder Master values Madam so much. Also, I could feel Master was in a better mood when Madam arrived. Master smiled brightly when Madam was in the room with him.’
Luo Jin’an’s eyes were also full of spirit, and Wei Cheng had never seen his master reveal such expressions.
‘Perhaps only Madam can make Master feel that way.’
The few sat around the dining table and continued eating happily.
Su Binglan entered the room with a tray and noticed Luo Jin’an had already washed up and changed into a fresh set of clothes. His hair even remained tied up.
Su Binglan marveled at Luo Jin’an’s luscious black hair. Even at night, he had a charming demeanor. He gave off an elegant and otherworldly aura when he tied up his hair and wore a bamboo-colored robe during the day.
When Su Binglan looked at him, she imagined him in a bamboo forest with a cool breeze blowing from the mountain. It was a refreshing sight.
Su Binglan had always known her husband possessed peerless magnificence.
However, when she looked at him again, she realized his eyes were focused on her. Luo Jin’an’s eyes were full of love and soul-stirring beauty.
Su Binglan held her breath and denied her husband had charmed her.
Although the couple was all too familiar and had seen each other daily in Su Teng Village, Su Binglan was still in awe of her husband’s appearance.
‘He’ s a demon. A handsome one who specializes in seducing souls.’
Luo Jin’an had never cared about his appearance. Still, his appearance could entice his wife. He slowly approached Su Binglan and took the tray from her, asking, “Are you tired?”
Su Binglan only returned to her senses after hearing her husband’s voice. She blinked and calmed herself, replying, “No, I’m not. How are you feeling? Are you still unwell?”
Luo Jin’an gently placed the tray on the table and said, “On the contrary, I feel much better now.”
Su Binglan could finally heave a sigh of relief. “You must be hungry. I made simple egg wraps and soup. You should like them. You can’t eat anything too greasy, so I made something lighter and more nutritious.”
She always cooked according to her husband’s tastes.
Luo Jin’an turned to look at his wife, his eyes full of tenderness. When one looked closely, his eyes seemed to contain a whirlpool wanting to swallow Su Binglan whole.
Su Binglan met his gaze, and her heart pounded. She could not resist him whenever he looked at her with that pair of soul-sucking eyes. Su Binglan blushed as she said, “Well, let’s eat.’
Luo Jin’an chuckled when he noticed Su Binglan’s reaction. There was a bright and wonderful feeling of a hundred flowers blooming whenever he smiled. He carried charm that could turn all living beings upside down.
His laughter was light yet deep, as if it could emit the smell of wine, making one drunk.
Su Binglan dared no look at Luo Jin’an’s expression, afraid he would bewitch her. The only thing she could not resist was his charm. She asked, “What are you laughing at?”
Luo Jin’an approached his wife and gently tugged at her hairpin. Her hair, tied up while cooking, suddenly fell on her shoulders.
Su Binglan was stunned, not understanding what her husband intended to do.
“Sit down,” Luo Jin’an said, “I’ll tie your hair up for you.”
Su Binglan did not quite know how to tie her hair to suit this era. She found it troublesome and would usually do something simple. Even so, she still looked lovely.
She confusedly looked at Luo Jin’an and asked, “You know how to do my hair?”
