[The previous chapter was sealed, this is a public notice!]
When Xiao Yexuan came over, he already knew this damn Tang San would be furious and hard to handle.
But Xiao Yexuan had his own ways of dealing with things.
Before Tang San could make a move, Xiao Yexuan leaned in and whispered softly into her ear:
"Little Tang San, you're really slow at cooking. I've waited so long I'm getting impatient. And you're even posing flirtatiously in front of me—aren't you just seducing me?"
"You! When did I flirt? You're the one who didn't let me wear proper clothes!"Tang San retorted indignantly.
"That's not my fault. But now you've stirred up my primal urges. So, what do you plan to do about it?"Xiao Yexuan said as he bit her ear.
Tang San looked at him with clear disgust, wanting to hit Xiao Yexuan, but she held back.
She knew—if she made a move, she'd be giving Xiao Yexuan the leverage he wanted.
Then, Tang San lowered her voice and said gravely:
"Then... what do you want?"
"Hmm... You just keep cooking. During the time I'm not eating food, I'll feast on you. Hehehe."Xiao Yexuan chuckled evilly.
Tang San's teeth ground audibly. It was obvious how much she despised Xiao Yexuan.
But she had no choice. She knew his personality well.
If she didn't behave, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Judging by Xiao Yexuan's current behavior, he just wanted to touch and tease her.
But if this dragged on...
Tang San thought things would definitely get worse.
So, she quickly pulled out new ingredients and started making another meal.
The worst part was that she had used a lot of poison earlier—and it had all been wasted.
Could it be that Xiao Yexuan saw through the poison?
And that's why he pulled that stunt?
But that shouldn't be possible. The poisons from Tang Sect were the best in the world—they couldn't be seen with the naked eye.
Even if the dish got spilled, there shouldn't have been any way to notice the poison.
Tang San was uneasy but kept cooking. This time, she hesitated—she didn't dare to poison the food again.
If she got caught, she'd be doomed.
"You… why are you messing with my hair?" As Tang San was cooking, she suddenly tilted her head back sharply, almost knocking over the wok in her hand.
If it had spilled, she'd have to start all over again.
And why did she suddenly jerk her head back?
Blame Xiao Yexuan.
Xiao Yexuan had taken Tang San's long sky-blue hair and tied it into twin ponytails.
Though the technique was rough—one side bigger than the other—
It didn't stop Xiao Yexuan from grabbing them both easily.
After tying the twin ponytails, it revealed Tang San's slender neck and elegantly curved back.
Xiao Yexuan felt deeply satisfied in his heart.
Heaven must've turned Tang San into this form just so he could bully her.
Xiao Yexuan tugged on the twin ponytails again.
Tang San was furious, but thinking about how long she had taken to cook and how Xiao Yexuan had already complained about being hungry—it made sense he'd have a bit of a tantrum.
Tang San could only… keep cooking.
The problem was—Xiao Yexuan kept making her tilt her head upward.
Because of that fluffy obstruction in her view, Tang San couldn't clearly see the seasonings anymore.
She accidentally used sugar instead of salt and didn't even notice.
Xiao Yexuan was thoroughly enjoying himself. To him, Tang San was like a little toy. Before long, Xiao Yexuan had even changed her hairstyle.
Still twin ponytails—but now with two pointy, bundled tufts on the sides.
They looked just like a pair of cat ears.
Yes—Keqing's signature hairstyle.
Xiao Yexuan was very pleased with his creation.
Except…
Xiao Yexuan looked down and thought—what was missing was a tail.
Looks like he needed to make a plugin tail for little Tang San when he had time.
"I'm done!" At that moment, Tang San's voice rang out like a cry of liberation.
Xiao Yexuan snapped out of his fantasy.
After finishing the meal, Tang San slipped out of Xiao Yexuan's arms.
Though, her head was still tilted back, and her twin ponytails were still being held.
"I finished cooking. According to the deal, you should let me go!"
Tang San looked resentfully at Xiao Yexuan.
Xiao Yexuan released her hand and looked at the three dishes and a soup on the table.
He nodded in satisfaction. But seeing Tang San fiddling with her clothes, his expression suddenly darkened.
The meal was ready—wasn't it obvious they were moving on to the feeding stage?
And Tang San was extremely sensitive to Xiao Yexuan's mood shifts.
Even though her back was facing him, she could feel his displeasure.
Tang San quickly turned around and saw Xiao Yexuan sitting by the table, not even picking up his chopsticks.
Tang San rolled her eyes. So lazy—he even wanted to be fed?
But as Xiao Yexuan had said—right now, Tang San was his slave.
So Tang San didn't delay further. Still half-dressed, she crawled to Xiao Yexuan's side. She used chopsticks to pick up a shrimp roll to feed him.
Xiao Yexuan wasn't worried about poison. This was the Ice-Fire Yin Yang Well, and all power inside it was his.
The Fragrant Silk Immortal Product he possessed was the ultimate antidote to all poisons.
So there was nothing to worry about.
Then, Xiao Yexuan opened his mouth slightly to enjoy being fed by Tang San.
Only, the moment the shrimp entered his mouth, Xiao Yexuan felt something off. It was sweet? The taste was bizarre.
Xiao Yexuan immediately spat it out—onto Tang San.
With a face full of anger, he said:
"What the hell did you make? Try it yourself! Is this even edible?!"
Xiao Yexuan was furious, and Tang San even more so. Why the hell did he spit it there? The shrimp roll got into her dimension pouch—it felt awful.
She felt even more aggrieved. She had worked so hard to cook a proper meal, and in the end, it was rejected.
And when she thought about Xiao Yexuan not eating and turning to eat her instead—Tang San got scared.
Of course, Tang San still wasn't convinced. How was her food inedible?
She ate it all the time. What did Xiao Yexuan think she was?
So, under Xiao Yexuan's accusatory gaze, Tang San also took a bite of the shrimp roll.
Tang San's face changed instantly, and she spat it out.
It landed right on Xiao Yexuan's leg.
Tang San didn't care about his leg. She just felt utterly wronged—there was no salt in the food. And that sweetness? Of course, it was sugar.
She had mistaken sugar for salt.
And she remembered—she had added salt last. At that time, Xiao Yexuan kept pulling her twin ponytails.
It was all Xiao Yexuan's fault. He had disrupted her, and that's why the food was ruined.
"This… this wasn't my fault… You were bothering me while I cooked… That's why!"Tang San quickly defended herself.
But Xiao Yexuan's expression turned colder as he looked at the stuff Tang San had spit on his leg.
Without caring about anything else, he pointed at his leg and said:
"You useless thing. Can't cook right and now got it all over me. Tell me—should I punish you, or will you… do something to make up for this?"
Tang San immediately realized that Xiao Yexuan's leg had been spat on—but Xiao Yexuan had spat on her too, and she hadn't even complained!
And now Xiao Yexuan was using this to make trouble for her?
Tang San didn't dare let Xiao Yexuan make the decision.
Helpless and desperate, Tang San knelt down and crawled toward Xiao Yexuan's side…
