Chapter 1124 - 1124 Disguised Punishment
1124 Disguised Punishment
Xue Fanxin went crazy the moment she encountered the delicacies. She definitely could not control herself. Her table manners were just so-so and when compared to the real daughter of a great family, she really had no table manners at all.
However, even though she had no table manners, people would not feel disdain from watching her eat. The more they looked at her, the more they felt that she was naturally beautiful, making their appetites increase.
What shocked them even more was a certain king’s actions. It simply refreshed their understanding of him.
“Eat slowly. No one is snatching it from you. Be careful not to choke.” Ye Jiushang waited on Xue Fanxin as she ate. From time to time, he would pick up food for her and even personally send the soup to her mouth. His eyes were filled with love, and he did not mind doing such a thing.
It seemed that their Nine Nether King didn’t just love the Consort. He truly loved, doted on, and protected her like a treasure.
Those women who admired the Nine Nether King and dreamed of becoming the Nine Nether Consort were about to cry.
Ye Jiushang did not care what others thought. He only had Xue Fanxin in his heart. Seeing that the food on the table was about to be finished, he ordered Qianshi and said, “Continue to make more dishes.”
Xue Fanxin chimed in. “Just make seven or eight more dishes. Give me another serving of those fragrant meat slices.”
Qianshi was a little speechless, but he still had to listen to orders and cook eight more dishes.
Seeing new delicacies on the table, Xue Fanxin was incomparably excited. She kept picking up the food with her chopsticks and eating. As she ate, she praised the food. “Your food is really delicious. It’s even better than mine. Indeed, there’s always someone better. It’s delicious… It’s too delicious.”
“If it’s good, I’ll get him to cook for you more often.”
Ye Jiushang’s words immediately made Qianshi worried. He could not help but say weakly, “Nether King, I’m very busy. I’m afraid I don’t have time to cook for the Consort often.”
In the past, he would only cook a few dishes once every two weeks or so, and he would never cook more than three dishes a day. However, he had already cooked 20 dishes today. According to his principles, he would not cook for the next month.
The Nether King asked him to cook for the Consort often. How could he do that?
How could Xue Fanxin not see Qianshi’s troubled expression? She did not like to force others, so she spoke before Ye Jiushang could give the order. “It’s okay. Everyone has their own things to do. This is understandable. I’ll come and try your dishes when you’re free.”
“Yes.” When Qianshi heard Xue Fanxin’s words, he heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he was secretly rejoicing that he did not have to cook often, a certain lord said, “One of the nine Holy Realms, the Illusionary Holy Realm, needs to be repaired. You can do this.”
“Nether King, this…” Qianshi did not expect Ye Jiushang to throw such a mission to him. Now, he could not refuse even if he wanted to. Otherwise, he would be disobeying orders. Therefore, no matter how unwilling he was, he had to accept this mission.
Was the Nether King blaming him for not making food for the Consort and punishing him indirectly?
If he could make another choice, he would rather cook for the Consort than go to the Illusionary Holy Realm. Not only was the spiritual energy there thin, but it was also completely isolated from the outside world. He could only enter and leave once every three months.
In other words, if he went to the Illusionary Holy Realm, he would have to stay there for three months before coming out.
Xue Fanxin did not know about the Illusionary Holy Realm and did not care about these things. She only cared about eating now. Although she could not eat such delicious food often in the future, she had to eat more when she could.
