113 A REWARD PART 1 (1/2)

”…” Louis couldn't look at them anymore. He tried to attentively look at his mobile phone. But his heart was still burning.

Xue Lin was very pleased to hear that. She said, ”Since you understand your wife's good nature, I will cook for you in the weekend.”

Ge Chen's expression brightened up. He couldn't help but ask, ”What will you cook?”

Xue Lin asked him back, ”What do you want me to cook? I can cook or bake anything as long as I have proper ingredients and recipe. I don't memorize recipe since I can always look at it. It's tiresome to memorize how to cook and how much spices to add. But don't worry, I still do some basic cooking and it's edible.” She added, ”But you have to chop the vegetables and meat. Chopping is the only reason I don't usually cook.”

Ge Chen couldn't help but chuckle. ”I don't mind chopping vegetables. Can you cook Italian pasta?”

Xue Lin didn't think he would want to eat pasta. She relaxed and replied, ”Sure, it's easy. How do you want me to cook?”

As the couple was talking, Louis got irritated. He did all the hard work whereas Ge Chen only ordered him around. How could he get the reward while Louis did all the work? That's discrimination. He chugged the wine and asked, ”And what about my reward? Can I come and eat-”

”Not this weekend. Later.” Louis didn't finish his question, Ge Chen mercilessly cut him off. It is the first time his wife will be cooking, why will he let his friend to taste his wife's love and affection?

”…” It was hard to look at the expression of Louis anymore. 'I quit! I quit!' He mumbled in his heart.

Later, Xue Lin drove the car and Ge Chen sat on the passenger's seat. Xue Lin glanced at him few times and suddenly asked, ”Say, are you mad that I offered Xiao Rong a place to stay?”

Ge Chen coolly denied. ”Not at all. Our place is big. It won't be crowded if we add a person. I hope he can keep the secret of our marriage. Aren't you worried that he will spread your story in the school?”

Xue Lin said, ”I will tell him to stay quiet. With his personality, he can do that. Also, he will stay in the servants' quarter. With his study and workload, he won't be able to go inside the forest often.”

Soon they reached home and freshened up. Xue Lin didn't feel hungry and went to the library. She went to the world of books and lost the track of time. When it was midnight, Ge Chen came to get her. ”Don't you feel tired?” he asked.
