Not perverted, eh? He will make sure she wouldn't turn her attention to another man .
Shen Yi was a selfish man and he hadn't an intention to share her with anyone .
One corner of his lips lifted in a smirk, he couldn't be more pleased that he could make his adorable wife blush like a fire truck .
"Just admit that you like what you see," his voice was husky against her ears in a whisper that only the two of them could hear .
"Never!" she hissed .
"Over my delicious body?''
He was unable to conceal his mirth .
"Yes!"
It was then Lu Xinyi something was wrong when his grin widened . Her eyes went wide as she hit him again with her fists .
" . . . "
"You tricked me! You shameless bastard!"
"Nah-ah, darling . No take backs allowed . " Shen Yi laughed before pecking her nose making her mouth to shut up instantly .
Did he just… . ?
"Yes, I did . " Shen Yi said as if answering her unspoken question . With an exasperated sigh, he let go of his wife's wrist and then ran his huge hand on her messy hair . "Go take a bath, let's have some breakfast before I leave . See you downstairs . "
He winked while Lu Xinyi stuck out her tongue in irritation .
---
The aroma of something cooking on his kitchen permeated within the living room . Shen Yi had already finished his morning preparation when he came down to the kitchen where his wife was making breakfast for the two of them . She was wearing a white shirt and tight jeans that show off her feminine curves in a nice way . His two dogs that purposely forgotten him, laid on the floor, watching Lu Xinyi cooking .
"What's for breakfast?" He asked while adjusting his collar and pulling out his necktie that he couldn't tie properly .
"Just a simple fried rice . " Lu Xinyi replied while her eyes glued on the rice she was cooking, her hand expertly stirred and mixed the ingredients with confidence .
"I didn't know you can cook . "
Lu Xinyi took the bacon she set aside earlier, poured on the wok, and stirred through . Shen Yi noticed she wasn't using a spatula instead she used two larger chopsticks to stir her fried rice . She then added some vegetables and seasoned the fried rice with a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of soy sauce to give it a nice light brown color .
Turning off the heat, she added the scallions and gave it another stir . She added a drizzle of toasted sesame oil and gently stirred to incorporate the flavors well .
Lu Xinyi took the bowls she prepared earlier and scooped the fried rice into two bowls .
"I'm done! Let's eat!" she exclaimed happily as she served the bowls on their dining table .
Shen Yi sat across her on the table . His mouth watered from the nice aroma coming from the fried rice . It had been too long since he had a home-cooked meal . It was like the fried rice was calling out to him, telling him to dig in to savor its delectable flavor .
Lu Xinyi can cook? It seemed he just hit the jackpot when he married her!
He had only ever eaten cheap takeout fried rice before and didn't love it . It was overly salty, gluey and filled with dried vegetables and rubbery meat, added with dry shredded eggs that he couldn't even taste .
"Don't you like it?" Lu Xinyi asked, noticing that Shen Yi hadn't started eating .
Shen Yi broke away from his daze and slowly took his chopsticks to eat . Lu Xinyi held her breath as her husband took the first bite on her fried rice . His eyes met hers while he slowly chewed the rice on his mouth . His face unreadable .
He was surprised that she could prepare and cook something like this . It was way better than any fried rice he'd tasted before!
Her fried rice was elegant and lightly seasoned . The rice grains that she used were individual and not soggy . It was kissed with soy sauce and toasted sesame oil . The small puffy pillows of egg looked very appetizing . The bacon also added another flavor in her fried rice .
Lu Xinyi's fried rice was a deceptively simple dish . It was deceptive because, despite its spare appearance, the flavors will leave anyone asking for more . Her dish turned out to be perfect .
"So, how is it?" Lu Xinyi asked . She was a little nervous that Shen Yi wouldn't like it because it was too simple and he might be used having expensive and high-class breakfast like the Eggs Benedict that she had no idea how to cook .
"Amazing . " he replied, "Simply amazing . "
For someone like Shen Yi who was a picky eater, and wasn't the type to go around openly praising anyone, receiving a compliment from him was very unlikely to hear .
To hear him calling it amazing, Lu Xinyi couldn't keep the bright smile off her face and fight off the blush on her cheeks .
