Chapter 241: Chapter 241 Qi Qi, You Smell So Good

"Squeak!"

When the car stopped at the Medicine King House.

It was already past midnight.

In the quiet garden, only the sound of insects could be heard.

"Everyone must be asleep by now," Lin Fan mused as he looked towards the dining area.

Unexpectedly, he saw Qi Qi dozing off on the dining table, snoring softly.

Next to her, there were a few dishes laid out.

Clearly, she was still waiting for him to return.

"I told you, Qi Qi’s soul has been ensnared by you. If you were my man, coming back this late, you’d definitely have to kneel on durian," Zhao Jiaqi said with her hands behind her back, looking at the sleeping Qi Qi.

In the past few days, Qi Qi had been quite busy.

"That’s why you don’t have the good fortune to be my woman, but, I can invite you to taste Qi Qi’s cooking," Lin Fan could naturally sense Qi Qi’s attachment to him.

However, regarding the food she prepared, he wasn’t very confident.

"Forget it, I’m not eating dog food, I’m on a diet," Zhao Jiaqi rolled her eyes at Lin Fan and added, "By the way, I just made a call to check, Mr. Zhou is in great health. He also asked me to tell you that he’s looking forward to tonight’s birthday banquet to see your grand gesture of kowtowing."

"Alright, alright, let’s see who ends up embarrassed then," Lin Fan was naturally very confident in his medical skills.

However, all of that would have to wait until the birthday banquet.

Lin Fan walked over to the dining area and saw the four different dishes on the table.

And truth be told, at least the colors didn’t look so weird this time.

Although the food seemed a bit undercooked still.

But the exquisite arrangement of the dishes was enough to prove that Qi Qi really put her heart into it.

"Lin Fan, you’re back," just as Lin Fan was about to pick up the chopsticks and try a bite.

Li Qiqi suddenly sat up.

Rubbing her eyes, she jumped up excitedly.

"Yeah, I ran into some trouble today, so I came back a bit late. Did you wait for a long time?" Lin Fan patted Qi Qi’s head affectionately.

This little cutie was full of lively spirit.

"Not too long, not too long, but the dishes have cooled down a bit, let me warm them up for you," Qi Qi said, beaming with happiness.

No matter what, Lin Fan had kept his promise and returned.

"No need. It’s not winter, it’s fine to eat like this," Lin Fan picked up the chopsticks and grabbed a piece of braised pork.

He took a deep breath and put it into his mouth immediately.

Li Qiqi watched Lin Fan’s expression anxiously.

As he began to chew, she grew increasingly nervous.

"Lin Fan, how is it? If it’s bad... you can just spit it out... don’t hurt your stomach..."

But after waiting for quite a while, Lin Fan still didn’t say anything.

He just kept chewing and seemed to be pondering something as well.

Finally, after swallowing the meat in his mouth.

He actually showed a smile of approval.

"Qi Qi, you’re really amazing!"

"What good is me being amazing... I’m asking how’s the dish?" Qi Qi looked at Lin Fan, her heart aflutter.

She wouldn’t be of any use smelling good.

Better for the food to smell delightful.

"I meant the dish smells amazing, really, the flavor of this braised pork is spot on, it’s tender and well-seasoned, the taste is superb, definitely on par with the chefs from a five-star hotel. But I’ve been thinking for a long time and still can’t figure out what this fragrance is from. How did you manage to cook this?"

Lin Fan picked up another piece of lion’s head meatball and put it into his mouth.

Apart from the original flavors, there was an odd aroma to all of these dishes.

Anyway, when it reached my mouth, the fragrance was overflowing.

Even Lin Fan, who had experienced various cuisines, had not expected such a flavor.

"This is a secret family recipe!"

Watching Lin Fan devour the meat.

Li Qiqi’s anxious heart finally settled in her stomach.

Four full plates of dishes, plus two bowls of rice, were quickly wolfed down by Lin Fan.

"Wow, it’s been so long since I’ve eaten to this point of fullness. Qi Qi, how did your cooking skills become so amazing!"

Leaning back comfortably in his chair, Lin Fan sincerely raised his thumbs up in approval.

I truly didn’t expect that in just a few short days,

her culinary skills would have improved so dramatically.

"Cooking for you is my greatest motivation. As long as you love eating, I will learn more in the future."

Li Qiqi, finally finding her confidence,

excitedly clasped her hands behind her back.

Being able to make her beloved eat so happily,

was a hundred times more blissful than eating herself.

"But what exactly is the fragrance in this dish? It doesn’t seem like spices... nor can I pin down that particular flavor, it just makes one want to keep eating... Can you reveal a little bit about it?"

Lin Fan curiously looked at Qi Qi.

The flavor he had just experienced was indeed unprecedented for him.

And it was at this moment, Zhao Jiaqi, back in her spicy short skirt, returned.

Surprised at the sight of the four empty plates.

Lin Fan really went all out this time.

"Qi Qi, you didn’t add Love Gu to it, did you?"

"How could I? I just added some specific traditional Chinese medicines to it. I put a lot of thought into learning this."

Li Qiqi proudly put her hands behind her back.

Being able to apply her grandmother’s teachings to her cooking,

she felt she was exceptionally gifted.

"Not bad at all, so everyone has a talent; as long as they find the right direction, each person can shine."

Zhao Jiaqi hugged Qi Qi’s shoulders.

These past few days, she had seen this silly girl’s dedication.

"Yeah, I will definitely find my own path."

Li Qiqi was now brimming with confidence.

From now on, she had many more methods she planned to try out.

"As your sister, I have to tell you, don’t spend all your time in the kitchen. It’s not worth it for some smelly men. How about we go see Miss. Shangguan after Old Mr. Zhou’s birthday celebration tomorrow? I wonder how her injury is healing up."

Zhao Jiaqi and Shangguan Min Yue hit it off right from the start.

Ever since they parted ways, it was as if she had vanished.

"Sure, I haven’t been out to have fun for a long time."

Li Qiqi said, already turning to Lin Fan: "Then... can I go?"

"Of course, you can go wherever you want. But it’s too late today; I’m heading home. We can talk about it tomorrow."

Lin Fan was stunned, then awkwardly smiled.

He never had control over where she went.

"Lin Fan, I’ll walk you out!"

Li Qiqi escorted Lin Fan all the way to the door.

Watching him hail a cab and disappear from sight,

she reluctantly turned around and walked back into the courtyard.

"Qi Qi, did you not hear what I just said? Men shouldn’t be spoiled. The more you pamper them, the less they care about you. If you whipped him with a stick every day, he’d start missing it if you stopped for two days."

Zhao Jiaqi approached Li Qiqi.

She had quite some insights when it came to dealing with men.

"My man, I can’t pamper him enough, let alone bear to hit him. Anyway... I’m going to spoil him to the heavens."

Li Qiqi pursed her lips, smiling shyly.

Little did they know, their conversation was clearly overheard by the old woman above the beams.

Her once kindly and benevolent face turned fierce with killing intent in an instant.

It seemed she was already quite displeased with Lin Fan.
