Zhu Wenqian sat on the bed with a nervous expression hanging on her face.
After all, Yang Wei held a fierce glint in his eyes as he gave her a silent treatment for the past few hours.
"C-Can you say something already, Yang Wei…" Zhu Wenqian stuttered as she asked pitifully.
"You are scaring me- a person who was supposedly injured due to saving your life." She added.
"So you do understand you're currently injured huh?" Yang Wei grunted coldly as he glared at Zhu Wenqian.
"For the sake of helping you recover better, I'm currently at the core of the enemy base. However, instead of focusing on recovering, you went ahead to start training your techniques." He added.
Zhu Wenqian kept silent as soon as Yang Wei opened his mouth and began scolding her.
Sometime later, Yang Wei stopped as he stared intensely at Zhu Wenqian.
"Do you admit to your mistake?" Yang Wei asked.
Zhu Wenqian nodded her head vigorously.
"I know my mistake, Yang Wei. Please forgive me this once as I will not train again without your approval." Zhu Wenqian said.
Although a bit suspicious of Zhu Wenqian, Yang Wei needed a method to ensure that she wouldn't break her promise.
From the time he knew her, Yang Wei could tell Zhu Wenqian is the sly type of person, and believing her words is worse than entrusting your life to a stranger.
Yang Wei pondered for a few moments before finding a solution to this dilemma.
"Zhu Wenqian," Yang Wei shouted.
"Y-Yes?"
"I've made my decision. If you are caught again in training instead of recovering your health, then don't expect to have any good food in your stomach."
"WHAT??!" Zhu Wenqian stood up in her bed as she held a dumbfounded expression.
"H-How could you deprive this queen of her food?" She muttered.
"Deprive? If I didn't resort to this method, I can bet you would go straight back to that training area as soon as I leave here." Yang Wei snorted coldly.
"T-That's not true…" Zhu Wenqian said, hoping to defend her integrity and honor.
Yang Wei squinted his eyes as he stared at her with a threatening gaze.
A few minutes later, Zhu Wenqian heaved a soft sigh as she raised her hand in surrender.
"Okay, I'm wrong already, so please don't torture me like that," Zhu Wenqian pleaded for mercy.
"Fine, I will head out now to cook you another healthy meal but-"
"I know I know, I will stay in this bed like a little girl."
"Good, you better be, and just for your information, I have eyes around you." Yang Wei warned as he walked ahead.
"Hmph, Yang Wei is such a meanie…" Zhu Wenqian mumbled once she noticed Yang Wei was no longer around.
However, her expression paled when Yang Wei's voice suddenly resounded around her.
"Call me a meanie again and I'll make sure the food is only healthy but not tasty at all."
Zhu Wenqian gasped in surprise as she quickly covered herself with a blanket.
'H-He really got eyes around me… such a creep. He must want to violate this queen's body as soon as I recover,' Zhu Wenqian cried inwardly as she wondered what her fate would become.
Sometime later, Zhu Wenqian sniffed a rich fragrance coming from the door.
"Ahhh- that bastard really knows my weakness." Zhu Wenqian grumbled slightly when she was mesmerized by the cooking skill of Yang Wei.
"Who are you calling a bastard?" Yang Wei asked as he entered with his hand holding a plate that was covered by a dome.
"N-No one, Yang Wei." Zhu Wenqian hurriedly said and showed a bright smile as she clasped her hand together.
"Such a fragrant dish mhmm. Yang Wei, you are really an amazing chef." Zhu Wenqian praised.
"You can save your bootlicking for someone else," Yang Wei teased as he placed the dish down at a table.
"Although this isn't as tasty as the beggar chicken, it's a healthy dish that can regenerate your red blood cells." Yang Wei said.
"Red blood cells?" Zhu Wenqian raised an eyebrow.
"What is that cell crap?" She asked.
Yang Wei twitched his mouth slightly. 'Crap, I forgot the people here didn't understand the living environment subject or science-related-topics…'
"Nevermind, Zhu Wenqian, just know the food is meant to help you recover." Yang Wei said as he's not going to bother explaining some school-related things to her.
Zhu Wenqian shrugged her shoulders.
"Whatever then, don't mind me eating it now," Zhu Wenqian said as she opened the dome.
White air began emitting out from the dish and without the dome covering the food, Zhu Wenqian could smell the fragrance even better.
She sniffed for a few moments before stuffing herself with the food as she ignored her surroundings completely.
Yang Wei sighed softly as he sat on a chair and waited for her to finish eating.
"Don't stuff it so quickly…" Yang Wei said when he saw her mouth covered in food.
It was like watching a baby trying to eat for the first time.
Zhu Wenqian glanced at Yang Wei with a somewhat bashful expression.
"You can't blame me when you cooked such delicious food…" Zhu Wenqian said as she continued eating.
Yang Wei was rendered speechless.
She was complimenting him so he couldn't rebuke her words.
After all, he was indeed confident in his cooking skills.
'Grandma, your cooking skills that have been imparted upon me have gained me a lot of help.' Yang Wei felt nostalgia when he recalled how much of a klutz he was during his first cooking lesson.
Seeing how Zhu Wenqian was busy eating, Yang Wei decided to leave her alone.
Sometime later, Yang Wei stood before an open area as he asked, "Senior Fan Ping, is there a way to check what's happening outside."
Fan Ping arrived shortly after as he glanced at Yang Wei.
"There's indeed a way to check what's happening outside," Fan Ping said.
However, before Yang Wei could get happy, Fan Ping continued his words.
"To unlock that function, you would have to pass a trial first."
