Chapter 374: Chapter 374 Domineering Female CEO vs. Civilian Xiao Bai Hua (25) Chapter 374: Chapter 374 Domineering Female CEO vs. Civilian Xiao Bai Hua (25) The Xia Family and Long’s were united in marriage!

The grand engagement banquet was talked about for a long time, and there were rumors that the Fourth Master of the Xia Family was extremely fond of his fiancee. Originally, he had planned to go straight to the wedding, but he felt that there was not enough time to organize a perfect wedding for his fiancee, so he settled for an engagement banquet first.

Others said that the union between Long’s and the Xia Family was merely a strong alliance. In such powerful family alliances, where could any real emotions be found? It was all just for show. Just watch, within a year, there will surely be all kinds of scandals breaking out.

However, no matter what outsiders said, life was really just about two people living it.

Now, the notoriously cold and ruthless Fourth Master, known for his iron-blooded methods, was in the kitchen making dinner for two.

Gu Shengyin was very surprised to find out that Xia Wanjun could cook.

No one could imagine such a man washing his hands to make soup.

Gu Shengyin could actually cook, and thanks to the system, her culinary skills were no less than those of an average chef.

However, since her birth, throughout so many worlds, she had almost never lifted a finger herself.

One reason was that she did not like it, and the other was that her identity in every world almost never needed her to do so.

She was quite satisfied with this. However, what surprised her was that her lover, whose identity and background were extremely powerful in every life, had cooked for her in several of them.

“I never thought that the Fourth Master would actually cook by himself,” Gu Shengyin commented with emotion.

Xia Wanjun handed her the prepared meal and sat down as well, “What’s so surprising about that? The Fourth Master of the Xia Family was just a child who wasn’t favored by his parents when he was young.”

His parents had their marriage arranged by their families and after they had him, the successor, they began living separately, leaving young Xia Wanjun alone in a vast villa with only servants for company.

He started getting involved in the Xia Family’s secret businesses in his teens and, to command respect, he personally participated in those devilish training sessions of the Xia family.

In deserted wilderness or on the plains, no one would be waiting with a plate of hot food for you. Xia Wanjun went from not knowing how to light a fire to being able to find edible food and secure an escape route no matter where he was placed.

He shook his head, dispelling those not-so-pleasant memories from his mind, and served Gu Shengyin a bowl of soup.

Gu Shengyin accepted it, not asking about the past hidden in his words, but playfully blinked, “That’s great then, since I can’t cook, from now on, all household management duties will be handed over to the Fourth Master.”

Xia Wanjun’s lips curled slightly, “I’d be happy to cook for Tianruo.”

Long Tianruo’s past was thoroughly investigated as soon as he took an interest in her.

Unlike him, she had been the treasure of her parents’ hearts, the pearl in their palms since she was born. The biggest setback she had ever faced was when her parents had an accident and she, alone, had to shoulder the entire responsibility of Long’s.

She learned many things, but never dealt with daily household essentials. Before her parents’ accident, she didn’t need to; after the accident, she simply had no time.

That was perfectly fine. Xia Wanjun thought in his heart.

Her life had been smooth and fortunate; she had no need to bother with these mundane matters. He was happy to indulge and protect her.

The woman of Xia Wanjun had to be the happiest woman in the world.
