The sudden appearance of the apple stopped Shen Wanwan from saying anything. Ji Jinxian retracted his hand with a calm expression.

“Eat up!”

“Okay, hubby.”

She smiled as she held the apple and began to eat it slowly in front of Ji Jinxian, making him feel embarrassed and furious.

“Hurry up and eat!”

“I’m done, hubby.”

Shen Wanwan smiled and threw the apple core in her hand into the trash can. Then, she turned around and extended her hand to Ji Jinxian.

“Hubby, wipe my hands.”

Ji Jinxian looked at her fair palm and snorted coldly. However, he still took a tissue to wipe Shen Wanwan’s hands.

“I married a troublemaker.”

Ji Jinxian threw the tissue in the trash can and crossed his arms as he looked at Shen Wanwan. He wanted to see if she could do anything else.

“Hubby, it’s getting late. I’m hungry. You should go cook.”

Shen Wanwan rubbed her tummy and acted coquettishly at Ji Jinxian with a smile, while Ji Jinxian’s gaze fell on her tummy.

“You just ate an apple. How can you be hungry again?”

Although Ji Jinxian said this, he still walked into the kitchen with a straight face. He wore an apron and prepared to cook for Shen Wanwan.

“Hubby, I know you’re the best!”

Shen Wanwan followed Ji Jinxian into the kitchen and praised him.

“My husband is the best. Other husbands don’t cook for their wives.”

“Hubby, I feel so lucky to have married you!”

Ji Jinxian felt quite happy being Shen Wanwan highly praised, but he still had an expressionless face, as though Shen Wanwan’s words were nonsense.

However, his inner thoughts had completely betrayed him.

[This spoiled girl has good taste. Well, in that case, I’ll make two more dishes.]

[Hmph, my excellence is unmatched.]

Hearing Ji Jinxian’s heartfelt words, Shen Wanwan continued to praise him until he felt refreshed.

After praising him, Shen Wanwan started to question Ji Jinxian’s cooking skills. After all, in her opinion, the CEO of the company had little time to cook.

“Hubby, you can cook?”

Shen Wanwan deliberately used an exaggerated tone to casually ask, while Ji Jinxian, who was immersed in the environment of Shen Wanwan’s fabricated praise, did not notice the probing tone in her words.

He opened the refrigerator to select ingredients and answered nonchalantly.

“What’s the big deal? I learned how to cook when I was 15 years old.”

Shen Wanwan was shocked by his casual attitude and indifferent tone.

Shen Wanwan found it hard to believe that Ji Jinxian had learned to cook so early. Before she transmigrated, she rarely entered the kitchen.

Her family’s only requirement for her was not to enter the kitchen. Otherwise, the kitchen would probably have to be replaced.

Therefore, cooking had always been a pain point for Shen Wanwan. She greatly admired those who could cook.

However, before Ji Jinxian started to cook, Shen Wanwan was still skeptical. Until she saw Ji Jinxian skillfully cut the chicken wings, add seasoning, and put them into the pot.

After just a few minutes, the delicious aroma of braised chicken wings filled the air. Shen Wanwan watched as Ji Jinxian made the delicious, braised chicken wings with her own eyes. She instantly kept praising him.

“Hubby, you’re so amazing!”

“Your cooking skills are incredible, and these chicken wings smell so good!”

“Hubby, I’m so lucky to have married you. Can you put more potatoes in later?”

Shen Wanwan kept praising Ji Jinxian without stopping. Ji Jinxian was a little embarrassed by all the compliments. Perhaps it was because Shen Wanwan’s praise of him was so good and sincere.

During the entire cooking process, Ji Jinxian didn’t find her annoying at all and didn’t have the urge to get her out. Instead, he even took the initiative to add another dish.

[The spoiled girl has turned into a praising machine. She really has a sweet mouth!]

[What should I do? The spoiled girl is too good at praising. I might fall for her…]

[No, I absolutely can’t fall for her. I can’t let her become too confident…]

[However, should I make two more dishes? Do I want to hear her praise me some more?]

Hearing Ji Jinxian’s nagging, Shen Wanwan turned her head to the side and tried hard to hold back her laughter.

In order not to let Ji Jinxian notice anything strange, Shen Wanwan even tried hard to hold back her tears from laughing.

“No, I can’t let Ji Jinxian know that I can hear his inner thoughts!” she thought.

However, Ji Jinxian was too funny. He looked like a tyrant, but he was a chatterbox. It was too cute!

“Hubby, we don’t need so many dishes. We can’t finish them all,” Shen Wanwan said.

After she finished laughing, she turned around and saw that Ji Jinxian was about to open the fridge to get more ingredients. She hurriedly went over to stop him.

“I didn’t make all this food just for you!”

Although he said that, Ji Jinxian still closed the refrigerator and walked out of the kitchen with the cooked dishes. Shen Wanwan followed behind him with a bowl and chopsticks.

“Hubby, you’re amazing. These dishes smell so good!”

“Hubby, you could become a five-star chef. If you applied for a chef job, those chefs would definitely lose their jobs.”

As Shen Wanwan walked, she praised Ji Jinxian, as if she had already used to praise Ji Jinxian. Hearing her soft voice behind him, Ji Jinxian was not angry or frustrated.

“Don’t talk so much. Hurry up and come over to eat.”

Ji Jinxian placed the dishes on the table and nervously invited Shen Wanwan to eat. She either obediently walked over and sat beside him.

“Try it. It doesn’t taste too good.”

Even though he said that, Ji Jinxian kept looking at Shen Wanwan from the corner of his eye, wanting to see the expression on her face.

The nervous and expectant voices in the dining room expressed Ji Jinxian’s nervousness and anxiety.

[Does the spoiled girl like the dishes I made?]

[Hmph, if she dares to say it’s not delicious, then I… then I’ll practice some more…]

[Why isn’t the spoiled girl reacting? Is my cooking that bad?]

The nervous and expectant voice slowly turned into disappointment and self-doubt. Just as Ji Jinxian was about to continue thinking, Shen Wanwan quickly stopped him to thought.

“Hubby, your culinary skills are amazing. These dishes are so delicious!” Shen Wanwan’s praise was genuine and heartfelt. She wasn’t just buttering him up, as Ji Jinxian’s cooking was truly exceptional.

She did not expect Ji Jinxian, the dignified CEO of the company, to be such a good cook. She felt very lucky that she would be able to eat the food he cooked in the future.

“Barely.” Ji Jinxian replied nonchalantly, but the quirk of his lips betrayed his true feelings.

The meal ended with Shen Wanwan’s continuous praises. After the meal, Ji Jinxian cleaned up the table and placed the cutlery in the dishwashing machine. He then prepared to go upstairs to deal with some paperwork.

However, just as he walked out of the kitchen, he saw Shen Wanwan lying motionless on the sofa. He frowned and walked over quickly.

“Get up. You should exercise after eating.”
