She now had a general idea of the house. Past photos of the king’s family could be seen everywhere in the house.
It seemed that they only had Ying Bao back then. The family of three looked so joyous.
She came to the living room and saw the king sitting on the sofa while reading a book. It was only after she came there that he started to examine her.
Jing Xi was face to face with him. It was only after she looked closer that she realized that her clothes were matching couple outfits!
Even the pictures were the same! The colors were also similar. Oh my god. Didn’t this mean she was encroaching on things he found to be sensitive?
“Your majesty, I will go look for my own clothes and change out of these clothes.”
Jing Xi was very self-conscious but he didn’t need her to do that. “There’s no need. Just wear them! Come and eat!”
Eat?
She hadn’t even started preparing the meal!
“Your majesty, wait for a while. I will go make it now…”
When she found the dining hall, she was shocked to discover finished dishes were already on the table and they were all covered by glass covers.
Huo Yunshen walked over and took away the glass covers. He then ordered her to sit down.
“Your majesty, did you make these dishes?”
“Yes.”
“…”
Jing Xi was turned completely into stone. Wasn’t Jing Xi his personal assistant?
Why were the roles reversed right now? Why was he the one taking care of her?
She sat at the table and looked at the sumptuous and delicate dishes. Jing Xi was so astonished that she didn’t know what she should say.
These were all personally made by his majesty the king!
He cooked for her…
What exactly was her relationship with his majesty the king?
Right now, it seemed like he was treating her better and better. He treated her so well that it made her question whether or not everything that was happening was real.
Huo Yunshen waited until she sat down before grabbing some of the dishes for her. “Try it and see if it is suited to your tastes. I haven’t cooked in a long time.”
Ever since he became king, he basically didn’t need to do many things by himself as there were people who would help take care of them. And he was not confident in his own culinary skills, as he was scared they wouldn’t be up to her standards, scared that he wouldn’t be able to make things that tasted the way Jing Xi liked anymore.
While he looked at Jing Xi with anticipation, she started eating the dish on her plate. After a bite, she realized the taste was extraordinary.
She never would’ve thought his majesty the king would have such culinary skills. Each of the dishes he cooked was extremely delicious.
“How is it?” He asked.
“Tasty! Very tasty!”
Jing Xi nodded and praised it.
“Really?” Huo Yunshen smiled deeply. He couldn’t describe how happy he felt in his heart.
“Yes. I never would’ve thought your majesty knew how to cook, and cook so well at that.”
“You should eat more if it is tasty.”
Huo Yunshen encouraged her but Jing Xi still couldn’t become more open in front of him so she still ate very cautiously. Huo Yunshen said again, “If you don’t eat and can’t finish this, it will all be thrown away.”
When Jing Xi heard he would throw the food away, she sped up her eating. A satisfied smile appeared on Huo Yunshen’s lips as he looked at her as she ate.
And just like that, the two of them started living together. In the afternoon, the king didn’t look like he was going to head out so Jing Xi asked, “Your majesty, aren’t you going to meet with Zstan’s leader?”
“There is no need for the time being. I will see after my birthday has passed.”
Huo Yunshen didn’t tell her that this was just a vacation for the two of them.
The only thing he wanted was for the two of them to be alone together for a few days. He wanted her to remember as much of the memory she had lost three years ago as possible.
After all, if he went back to the country, there would be a ton of work to do. There were also three children at home as well. There wouldn’t be any opportunity for him if he wanted to get close to her then.
“Your birthday?”
Jing Xi had never paid attention to his birthday. Now that she heard him say this, she couldn’t help but get curious and ask, “When is your birthday?”
“Tomorrow.”
Tomorrow…
