Chapter 40
True to what Ah Chen said, all the servants in the Feng Residence had packed their belongings and fled while Feng Chuge and the rest weren’t around.
All sorts of ingredients were readily available in the kitchen.
For the first time ever, Feng Chuge rolled up her sleeves and began to cook.
Zilan and the rest looked at Feng Chuge’s appearance as if they had seen a ghost.
“Miss… Don’t tell me you really intend to cook?”
“That’s right!” Feng Chuge answered.
“But Miss… You’ve never cooked before…”
“I am a genius that can pick up anything on my first try.” Feng Chuge was washing the vegetables as she said this.
“Miss, it’s better for us to help you. I’m sure you will need help with all of these different ingredients.” The three servants had stepped forward to assist when they saw how Feng Chuge was suffering.
However, Feng Chuge bypassed them. “Nobody is to help… Ah Chen wants to eat my cooking and if you help, it will not be the same.”
The trio’s lips twitched.
That Ah Chen was only a little kid…
Isn’t the Young Lady treating him too well!?
The trio could only watch from the side since Feng Chuge had forbidden their help.
Within the Linshui Pavilion, Ah Chen’s stomach had already started grumbling out of hunger.
Ever since he had been poisoned, all his spiritual force had dispersed and he was not even comparable to a normal person.
He did not step out and merely looked up at the black smoke rising from the kitchen. His large eyes twinkled with amusement.
Feng Chuge was cooking for him personally…
“Meow~” A sudden purring sound could be heard.
Ah Chen lowered his head and saw the snow-white cat.
The cat’s sapphire eyes shone while it stood there and purred.
Ah Chen’s eyes brightened at the sight of the cat.
This is… a spiritual beast!
Spiritual beasts were a rare species on the continent and he never expected to encounter one here.
Perhaps because it noticed Ah Chen’s interest, the cat instantly became vigilant.
It retreated and even its purring sounds had changed while it revealed killing intent.
Ah Chen’s eyes narrowed.
For a split second, a bone-chilly aura shot out from his tiny body.
His thin lips slightly quirked up and an expression, not fitting for his age, surfaced on his face.
A cold glint overflowed from his purple eyes.
He was clearly a child, but at the moment, he gave off a monarch-like aura that seemed to look down on the world in disdain.
The child and the cat maintained eye contact for a long time!
“Meow.” The cat suddenly shivered and its sapphire eyes also gradually lost focus. It retreated subconsciously, seemingly frightened by someone.
At this point, Ah Chen raised his brows. He looked at the spiritual beast and said with indifference, “Defeated without a fight~”
The cat revealed an unwillingness in its eyes, but it dared not take a single step forward.
Footstep sounds came from outside and the cat seemed to have found its savior as it immediately ran forward.
Feng Chuge entered the room with a big bowl in her hand.
“It’s time to eat…” She put down the big bowl of noodles and called out.
“Woman, did you really make this?” Ah Chen asked.
“Of course. Since I said I would cook, I cooked.” While Feng Chuge was talking, the snow-white cat leaped into her embrace.
Ah Chen looked at the cat from the corner of his eyes and asked, “This is your cat?”
