Chapter 377 Love Is In The Kitchen.
Hao Ren was given two pendants, he looked at the two shiny stones and he was surprised. These two crystals contained a very pure Yin and Yang essence. The young man thought, 'Yin pendant is for me, and the Yang pendant is for Lingshi. To balance our innate elements and create a stronger force.'
*I am surprised you could tell. Well, at least the brain is functioning.*
Hao Ren sighed, and picked up the books again until Han Lingshi comes over. The lady came back with a pail of water, and some tools. The young man raised his head and said, "There is not need for these, I can just clean up by circulating energy." Continue reading at My Virtual Library Empire
Han Lingshi narrowed her gaze and asked, "Are you despising my pamperment? Is it my fault that you are now a strong man?"
Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "I dare not, your excellency, but I will not put down the book."
The young lady nodded and said, "Fine."
She pushed Hao Ren to sit down on a stool, and then she washed his hair with water and shampoo as he continued reading the book. The young lady did not know what got him so motivated about reading all of a sudden but she did not mind it. The people in the library all could see the situation from outside the barrier and were pleasantly surprised.
They did not expect Han Lingshi, the Empress who always had a neutral face would have such a tender expression when she attended to her husband. After washing the hair, she proceeded to foam his beard and then used a razor to clean his beard. Hao Ren finished reading a book, and with a flick of his hand he tossed the book back on the shelf and the next one was picked up.
The shaving was done, and Hao Ren sat up. Han Lingshi looked at the maid beside her with a smile and asked her to dispose of the water in the pail, before she began to massage Hao Ren's head with some oil and shoulders.
The young man groaned subconsciously. Yes, he was a cultivator but without proper exercise, his body was obvious to go stiff. After a few minutes, Han Lingshi said, "Okay, this is good, I will bring over some snacks in the evening."
Hao Ren nodded and kissed her bye. The Empress shook her head with a silly smile and walked out of the library.
...
Maya looked at Han Lingshi who was heading to the royal kitchen and asked, "Your Excellency, we have a lot of work to do."
Han Lingshi rolled her eyes and said, "I will assign Xiao Mei to make the decisions for the time period. I am busy with my husband's care."
The prime minister was shot down, and Xiao Mei was placed on the table as the trump card. Han Lingshi looked in for some recipes and began to cook some snacks that Hao Ren liked. Tang Zhen and Yue Shi were shocked when the staff told them about this. The two ladies came to the kitchen and found Han Lingshi really cooking for Hao Ren.
Tang Zhen asked, "Lingling, is that brat acting up?"
Han Lingshi was surprised and then chuckled as she shook her head, and said, "Ma, he is busy, and all these years, it has been him doing these things for me. So, as his wife, it is my chance to do my bit."
Yue Shi looked at her daughter but her response was completely different, "Do you really know how to cook?"
This got the girl all excited and she agreed to pray.
...
Hao Ren did not mind anything, every day, Han Lingshi will make snacks and bring them for him to eat. She would also give him a shave in every two days. As the young man proceeded to read his time consumption about the matter increased even more. Every book took a couple of hours of his time.
The people were surprised to see this but they could not say anything about it. After all, Hao Ren was also recording stuff on the side. His comprehensive research had reached a level were three stacks of paper were placed on the table and upon a glance they were densely filled with words.
One day, when Han Lingshi came over in the breaktime, Hao Ren took out the Yang pendant, and said, "Lingshi, this is for you."
Han Lingshi was surprised, and asked, "Is this a gift you are giving me because I took care of you?"
Hao Ren shook his head and said, "No, I am giving it to you because it is simply meant for you."
He tied it around her neck and Han Lingshi shivered as the pure Yang entered her body. She took a deep breath and asked, "You should have kept it for yourself."
Hao Ren took out the Yin crystal and asked, "Help me wear it?"
Han Lingshi tied the chain around his neck and pecked his cheek as she said, "Thank you for the present, I love it."
Hao Ren returned the favor and said, "It is my pleasure."
The young lady said, "I will challenge you for a cooking match, and you have to play fair with me."
Hao Ren was surprised and asked, "Where did this come from?"
Han Lingshi told him about how the ladies teased her, and he chuckled as he said, "I agree, I will play fair. Be ready then, don't ask me to go easy."
The Holy Moon Queen nodded and said, "I wouldn't have it any other way."
...
After finishing his comprehensions six months, later, Hao Ren came out of the library and was heading to the Alchemy room, when Han Lingshi appeared in the sky and said, "Your Excellency, Wandering Dragon, I challenge you for a duel. Do you dare?"
Hao Ren was shocked and raised his head to find Han Lingshi holding a kitchen knife in her hand. He chuckled and recalled the duel promise and said, "Yes, why won't I?"
