Chapter 691: 199 Cooking for Yin Xueyang, Yin Xueyang feels touchingly demeaned_3
Last time, so many gangsters armed with weapons couldn’t match him in a fight; he defeated them single-handedly, leaving them utterly disgraced and routed.
And when I fought with him myself, he struck me hard from behind, sending me to the hospital.
In this kind of physical struggle, I’m indeed no match for Li Zhiyan.
So, I might as well let him in first to see what he wants to do.
After Li Zhiyan entered, he casually locked the door behind him.
“Aunt Yin, I don’t think you should call me a ‘little beast’. After all, I am your lifesaver.”
...
“Think about it, if it weren’t for me that time…”
“Wouldn’t you have drowned in the river?”
“Aunt Yin, calling your lifesaver a ‘little beast’ over and over, seems quite impolite, don’t you think?”
Li Zhiyan said this very seriously.
For a moment, Yin Xueyang was somewhat at a loss for words; she couldn’t deny that Li Zhiyan had indeed saved her life, and this was something she could never refute.
If it wasn’t for Li Zhiyan, by now she would have been nothing but a lonely spirit – indisputably.
“I’ve already repaid you!”
“Don’t think you can continue to blackmail me with this.”
She thought about the ten conditions she had agreed to and fulfilled for Li Zhiyan before.
At this moment, Yin Xueyang felt a renewed sense of backbone.
She had indeed repaid Li Zhiyan, so if he thought he could blackmail her this way, that was not going to happen.
“Aunt Yin, listen to what you’re saying.”
“It’s as if I’m some kind of bad guy. I haven’t said anything about threatening you, have I?”
“I’ve always kept my promises, haven’t I?”
“But showing respect to one’s lifesaver…”
“That’s expected everywhere, isn’t it?”
Li Zhiyan’s words left Yin Xueyang somewhat at a loss again.
“Just say what you want to do.”
After showing Yin Xueyang the ingredients in his hands, Li Zhiyan said, “You see, I heard you were discharged.”
“So I came over specially to check on you.”
“And to cook a meal for you.”
Looking at the ingredients in Li Zhiyan’s hands, Yin Xueyang felt bewildered, wondering if she was dreaming.
Li Zhiyan had come not to cause her trouble,
but to cook for her?
Everything seemed like a dream.
“You’re here to cook for me?”
“Of course, Aunt Yin, you fell sick and I played a twenty percent part in it.”
“So after you were discharged, I should properly compensate you.”
Li Zhiyan’s words spread an uncontrollable guilt through Yin Xueyang’s heart.
So, Li Zhiyan was here for this reason?
“All right, Aunt Yin, just wait to have your meal.”
With that, Li Zhiyan got busy in the kitchen. This meal was not just any meal; it was tied to a cash reward of two million, and Li Zhiyan took it very seriously.
Watching Li Zhiyan skillfully wash and pick the vegetables and clean the abalone, Yin Xueyang felt a sense of awe. She didn’t know why Li Zhiyan was so proficient in cooking.
But upon reflection, considering he was a poor child who made something of himself, it no longer seemed strange.
It appeared that this kid was really a good one.
She stood quietly and watched Li Zhiyan cook.
At that moment, Yin Xueyang was almost entranced.
It was after twelve when Li Zhiyan finally finished cooking a meal worth two million and served it on the table.
“Aunt Yin.”
“Try my cooking.”
Having taken off his apron, Li Zhiyan picked up the chopsticks to serve Yin Xueyang some dishes.
Yin Xueyang, who had weathered many storms, had seen it all.
But at that moment, she felt out of her depth. In her heart, Li Zhiyan was the person she hated the most, the one she wanted to deal with the most.
Yet now, her nemesis was cooking for her in her own home.
It seemed that her son Yin Qiang had never cooked for her from childhood to adulthood.
And now…
Li Zhiyan’s chopsticks were already at her mouth, and without thinking, Yin Xueyang opened her mouth and began to eat.
Li Zhiyan’s cooking skills were average, but for Yin Xueyang, it was definitely satisfactory.
“I didn’t expect you to be quite good at cooking.”
Yin Xueyang’s voice softened considerably, and she couldn’t help developing a favorable impression of Li Zhiyan.

However, she quickly realized what she was doing; she was developing feelings for Li Zhiyan, the very person she loathed.
But at this moment, she couldn’t bring herself to say anything harsh.
Li Zhiyan had made a special trip to see her and had prepared such a grand meal; he had surely put in effort.
Afterwards, Li Zhiyan picked up an abalone for Yin Xueyang.
“Here, Aunt Yin, have some abalone to nourish yourself. It must not be easy to have a taste of abalone usually.”
As Li Zhiyan kept serving her, Yin Xueyang’s heart sank more and more with a feeling of worthlessness.
“Li Zhiyan, just say what you want. There’s no need to beat around the bush.”
“You’ve really got me wrong; I simply wanted to come over and cook a meal for you.”
Afterward, Yin Xueyang didn’t say a word, quietly dining with Li Zhiyan.
After eating, Yin Xueyang went to rinse her mouth.
Then she came to the kitchen where Li Zhiyan was washing the dishes.
“I’ll help you once, and then we’ll be even.”
Yin Xueyang didn’t want to owe Li Zhiyan any favors, as harboring feelings for him would continue to give her that sense of worthlessness.
