Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 763 - Cannot follow the request.

As Li Xue entered the kitchen, her eyes grew wide. Being a chef who has given her five years or more completely to the kitchen, with one glance it wasn't tough for her to understand that everything in the kitchen was kept top-notch and up to the current trend.

"This is …" She was about to give her words of appreciation regarding it but before she could even begin the man who had followed her from behind interrupted her with his intention.

"Even joining the modeling industry now, I know cooking has got a special place in your heart. So, it's just to give it some perfection".

Li Xue didn't say much in response to his words. She just stood there, giving him the smile for which he has taken such great extents. If she had known that her smile and happiness would ever matter to someone this much, she would have never dared to be unhappy in the past.

But how could she have known? In the past, she never knew that someday, she would have him by her side to bring her life to the perfection that the world would never imagine.

"You liked it?" When saw the woman giving him such a pretty smile, Feng Shufen asked, even though he knew the answer.

Li Xue smiled bigger, tilting her head to both sides like a puppy wagging its tail. "Seeing me like this, what do you think?" She said and it was pretty evident with her words.

"Mhm".

While they stood there for some time with each other, they didn't notice that their arrival had come to the notice of the people working there. It only hit their realization when they heard a soft polite gesture from behind.

"Sorry for interrupting, Master and Madam! But is there something you need?" The voice was really polite and it instantly made Li Xue turn around on her heels to look at the person, while walking to stick on Feng Shufen's side.

Keeping a smile on her expression, she shook her head. "Ah, there is nothing. We were just here to look. You are?" She asked, confusingly looking at the lady, dressed in a designated formal outfit of a maid, and beside her stood a man dressed as a chef.

The woman bowed slightly on her knees as she introduced herself, "Ma'am, I am Wu Jiaqi, the head maid in this house and this is Chef Han, the head chef that will be handling the work in the kitchen here".

"Master and Madam!" Chef Han greeted as well, bowing his head down in respect.

The man was not unknown to Li Xue. She has heard about him a lot but at this moment and place, she didn't plan to emphasize it more, remembering the title she was carrying while standing beside the man.

So instead of saying anything regarding the chef's skills, Li Xue just plainly looked with appreciation and gave a gentle nod of gesture. "It's nice to meet you, Chef Han and Ms. Wu." She said as her gaze paused at the lady. She was middle-aged and she clearly remembers that this was their first meeting. Still looking at her gaze at herself at the moment, Li Xue could not help but feel some hostility in her aged eyes.

She would have given it a try asking about it to her. But given that it was just their first meeting and she was yet to know her, she didn't ponder much over the glances that came fluctuating on her. Instead, she turned to exchange a small glance with the man. She was really feeling hungry and could not wait for more to ask about it. "It's been quite a good time since we came here and the journey has also been quite long, kind of making us hungry. So, I just wanted to ask, if there is something we could have now".

The young chef smiled slightly before nodding. "Sure, Ma'am. It's already time for lunch. If you say we would quickly prepare some brunch. Just let us know your preference in it". His eyes, looking between both the master and the mistress, not forsaking even one's presence.

Li Xue thought for a moment. She wasn't able to decide at such short notice so being confused about the ideas, she turned to her side to look at Feng Shufen. Intertwining her arms into his, she asked, "Do you want to have something particular?"

The man shook his head, while his fingers went to slowly remove the wild strand away from her face. His actions were all gentle. It didn't surprise Li Xue but did astound the other two-person standing at their front.

"Anything that you prefer." Feng Shufen said and that was the second time, the chef and the head maid were left shocked. This was new for them to take, especially when they have always heard people say how cold and aloof was the personality of the man.

Li Xue was not at all aware of the thoughts of the other two people, so when heard Feng Shufen's response, she didn't think much before turning warmly to the chef to say, "We can't think of anything as of now. So prepare anything wholesome for the brunch. We will depend on your choice, Chef Han. As for the dinner, I can tell you what you can prepare".

"…" The two straight surprise shocks were a little heavy to take, so it took some time for Mr. Han to recover. But he did before it came to anyone's notice. Pulling his lips into a professional smile, he politely asked, "What are the orders for the dinner then, my lady?"

Li Xue shared a slightly excited glance with the man as she reverted it back to say. "I and WeiWei have always had hotpots during New Year's Eve. So this year as well, I want to follow the same tradition. Please prepare an authentic hotpot for the night. That will be fine." She said and her words were quickly interrupted with the other woman at the scene, to which Li Xue's brows got raised in exceptional surprise.

"Sorry Ma'am. We apologize, but we cannot follow that request".
