Chapter 241 (1/2)
From this day on, Nan Xun always felt that big boss State Teacher was observing her secretly, and when she looked over, the boss didn’t even flinch. Those beautiful eyes still looked like two pools of stagnant water, with no ripples whatsoever.
Could it be he felt it odd that she didn’t show any curiosity about his anomaly on that night of the full moon?
“Little Eight, was the big boss watching me just now?” Nan Xun asked.
Little Eight replied calmly, “Yes ah, he’s looking at you, he’s looking no less than three times a day oh.”
Nan Xun suddenly became excited. “F*ck, this is such an important thing, why didn’t you tell me?!”
Little Eight snorted, “The evil value hasn’t dropped by even a teensy bit, what kind of good news should I tell you?”
Nan Xun’s spirit shriveled at once.
“By the way, is cooking a frog in warm water like this really useful? You won’t cook him for ten or twenty years right?” Little Eight hesitated. [T/N: progressing slowly]
Nan Xun slapped her chest to assure him, “Of course not!”
Even if Gong Moran didn’t eat the food nor drink the tea that Nan Xun brought for him, Nan Xun kept on doing it as always. When the tea became cold, she re-brewed it, and when the meal became stale, she personally went to the small kitchen to make all kinds of pastries. The seductive fragrance they emitted was especially strong.
A few days later, when Nan Xun once again brought the freshly made pastry to the outer hall, the beautiful man resting inside suddenly came out.
He walked as if he was stepping on a cloud, and his voice was very light, elegant and calm.
Gong Moran glanced at her lightly. His gaze slowly fell on the plate of pastries, and his flat voice seemed to rise a bit. “Scholar Blossom Cake?”
Nan Xun said with a smile, “Answering the Lord, it is the Scholar Blossom Cake that I personally made.”
In front of this superb State Master, few people dared to call themselves as “I,” but Gong Moran seemed to have not noticed anything wrong with what she call herself. He looked at the fragrant Scholar Blossom Cake for a while, before he suddenly stretched out his hand and placed a piece in his mouth.
Nan Xun watched him gently chew the cake and sighed in her heart. Even the way he ate was so elegant and beautiful, it seems he’s actually like an immortal in all aspects, not just pretending to be one ah.
After Gong Moran ate a piece, he actually took another piece, which surprised Nan Xun.
Nan Xun excitedly said to Little Eight, “I know my cooking is good, but I didn’t expect it to be so good that even Lord State Master ate two pieces!”
Little Eight asked suspiciously, “…Is there really nothing wrong with big boss’ taste?”
Gong Moran ate two pieces before stopping. He tilted his head towards Nan Xun and looked at her earnestly for the first time.
After a while, he lightly praised with a sentence, “Girl, your cooking is good.”
The next second, Little Eight exclaimed excitedly, “What, what?! It’s dropped! The big boss’ evil value dropped by one point just now!”
Nan Xun: …
“After serving him for so long, State Master is actually a foodie?” Nan Xun was surprised.
From this day on, Nan Xun made so many kinds of pastries that she almost ate them herself every other time.
But apart from the Scholar Blossom Cake that she made the first time, Gong Moran’s evil value didn’t lower no matter how many cakes he ate, which made Nan Xun’s strategy route stuck again.
The good news was that Gong Moran’s attitude towards her had changed significantly.
For example, he came out to eat the cakes by himself at first, but later he directly called Nan Xun to bring the cakes inside the inner hall.
When Nan Xun entered for the first time, he was leaning on a soft couch, his inky hair spreading out like a waterfall. Half of it fell gently on the soft cushion, while his snow-white robe was also a little messily open. His whole body exuded a kind of casual and languid aura that was completely different from usual.
Nan Xun brought the pastries to the small wooden table next to him and saw the incense burner placed on the table.
