Chapter 176 - First Food (1/2)

”Why is there a pillow, a book, and a badminton racket? Do you want to play and read?” Was it supposed to be lunch?

”Oh. This. The pillow is for you if you feel uncomfortable for sitting for so long on the ground. These-” Linfeng pointed at the book and the badminton- ”in case you got bored.” Actually, it was on every list that Linfeng searched in the internet about the picnic. So he thought that he should bring it for precaution.

Xiong Zhi picked up the book.

”Don't worry. I will never be bored if I'm with you.” She said it casually while reading the synopsis of the book.

Linfeng stared for Xiong Zhi for a while then he sighed.

His young miss casually says things that made his heart thumped fast.

”Zhi'er. Didn't I tell you to not say those things like they were nothing?” Linfeng said gently to Xiong Zhi. He wanted to really teach her that those words should not casually be said.

Xiong Zhi stopped reading the book and looked at him.

”Why not? I mean those things.”

Thump.

Linfeng sighed again. He continued opening the container to cover his embarrassment and his loud beating heart.

'I should get used it. Get used to it..'

”Gasp.” Linfeng heard a gasp from Xiong Zhi.

Xiong Zhi's eyes were sparkling. She took a sniff and smelled the first container that was opened.

It was her favorite food, Spinach Pesto Pasta with Shrimp, that was the special course of Linfeng. Actually, all the food that Linfeng cooked was her favorite.

But this one was the very first one that Linfeng cooked for her in the past life.

In the past, all the food to her taste the same. They were good, barely appetizing, and she could manage to eat half of every serving. Their chef was an expert after all.

However, when Linfeng cooked for her for the first time, which was the Spinach Pasta Shrimp, she tasted it differently. It was so delicious that she managed to finish the whole serving. Linfeng applauded for her saying that he would cook things for her so that she would fatten up.

She remembered what Linfeng said at that time.

”I think of it because you are too pale. You are light-headed sometimes and faltered a bit. I figured you're anemic. Spinach and shrimp are good for you.”

And the Linfeng of the present said the same thing.

”You're too pale. Eat a lot of spinach and shrimp. Try it.” Linfeng gave the plate that was already half full of food.

Xiong Zhi accepted the plate. Her hands were a bit shaking. She scooped one spoon and tasted it.

It's delicious.

Xiong Zhi chews it.

They were so delicious that it brought tears to her eyes.

She thought she would never taste it again.

She thought she would never meet the person who cooked this again. How she wished this cooking in those painful three years.

Xiong Zhi scooped one more. It was delicious than she remembered. It's a bit salty. But it was because of her tears.

”Zhi'er? Why? Is something wrong.” Linfeng went to her side and worriedly inspect her.

Xiong Zhi shook her head.

”It is so delicious that I cried.”

'It was because you cook the first food in both lifetimes.'

Linfeng used his clean handkerchief and wipe her tears.

”And you cook this just for me.” Xiong Zhi continued.

'And it both has the same reason.'

Linfeng then wiped Xiong Zhi's mouth that had a bit of pasta sauce. He sighed.

”I'm planning to deliver you food every lunch. But if you're going to cry in every food that I cook, I might be discouraged to not do it again.”

Xiong Zhi'eyes went a bit wide. She started to complain and compromise.

”Why? I love your cooking. I won't cry next time.”

Xiong Zhi who has red eyes that were a bit wide and who had an expression of 'I won't do it again ' was really cute. So cute that Linfeng gently tapped her nose.

”I'm just joking. Of course, instead of eating other people 's food, it's better to eat healthy and trusted foods made by me. You will get healthier.”

Xiong Zhi face suddenly lit up.
