C102 The Love of the Dead

Pei Yichen lowered his head and washed the dishes seriously. He couldn't help but smile. He was very satisfied with someone's rice bug mentality.

The next day, Ning Xia slept until the sun rose before lazily getting out of bed. Her back was aching, and those who didn't know what had happened last night might have thought so.

"Chen..."

Ning Xia called out sleepily, but there was no response.

She got off the bed barefoot and rubbed her eyes. Only then did she realize that there was no one in the room. "Where did you run off to so early in the morning?"

Ning Xia mumbled as she walked out. As soon as she opened the door, she smelled a sweet smell coming from the kitchen, which made her feel refreshed.

Jesus, did this guy get up early to make breakfast?

Ning Xia rushed down to the kitchen in disbelief.

"You're awake?"

Pei Yichen turned around and glanced at her when he heard the noise behind him. He then turned around and continued with his work.

Ning Xia rushed over like a koala and hung on his back. "Chen, you're so good. You're actually making breakfast for me. I'm so touched."

Pei Yichen helplessly let her hang on his back. He looked down at her small feet and frowned. "Why aren't you wearing shoes?"

Ning Xia frowned. "I'm sorry, but I hooked my leg. Only then did she realize that she had been looking for Chen in a daze ever since she woke up. She had completely forgotten about wearing shoes."

"I forgot."

Hearing her words, Pei Yichen felt a little helpless, "Stepping on the floor barefooted is not good for your health."

Didn't they say women were afraid of the cold?

"Then I'll just stick to you and not come down. You can carry me on your back. Hehe."

Ning Xia stretched out her arms and hugged Pei Yichen's neck even tighter. Her legs were wrapped around his strong waist, and she was like a dog skin plaster, sticking to him tightly.

Pei Yichen let her hang on to him and skillfully took out his big recipe from the oven.

"Wow, Pei Yichen, you know how to bake bread!"

Ning Xia almost drooled when she saw the extremely good-looking Qi Feng cake.

"Keep your saliva properly."

Pei Yichen was worried that someone would drop saliva on his neck.

Ning Xia was so scared that she quickly wiped her chin. She realized that she was not drooling at all. She clenched her small fist and smashed it on Pei Yichen's shoulder. What a big bluff!

"Chen, who did you learn how to make cakes for? Don't tell me you used the same trick on me when you were chasing girls?"

Pei Yichen carried Ning Xia on his back and carried the cake to the dining table. "I used to be very poor overseas, so I learned to bake my own bread and make my own cake."

Hearing his words, Ning Xia could not help but frown slightly. Why did he feel like there was a loophole inside?

"You can still eat bread for breakfast. Where's the cake? You, a man, eat this every day?"

Men had big manism, and women had small women's minds. Ning Xia thought that a beautiful cake should be a woman's favorite.

Ah, this guy can't be a...

In the blink of an eye, Ning Xia had already thought of countless possibilities.

Pei Yichen placed her on a stool and looked at her exaggerated expression. He felt a little helpless. This girl's thoughts were always hard to keep up with.

"Learning how to make a cake is because... I have nothing to do."

Pei Yichen blurted out. He couldn't tell Ning Xia that he had learned how to make cakes because of the summer.

Summer had once told him that he envied his classmates who had birthday cakes to eat and were also envious that they could eat cake every day. Thus, he learned how to make these and fantasized that one day he could make them for summer to eat.

It was just that everything had changed a long time ago. In the future, he wanted to cook it for Ning Xia even more.

Ning Xia's suspicious gaze wandered around his face, and she silently retracted it. Forget it, a man was after all. So what if he was a bit of a pervert before her? It would be fine as long as he did not have any in the future.

"Quick, try it. I'll cook it for you when it's good."

Pei Yichen changed the topic without batting an eyelid. Ning Xia curled her lips and nodded in agreement. She picked up the fork next to her and started eating.

The cake was soft and delicate, melting as soon as it entered her mouth. Ning Xia was so excited that she almost got excited. She did not notice the knife and fork beside the cake at all.

Pei Yichen, who had always been elegant, cut into small pieces and put them on a plate to eat. However, his arrangement with Ning Xia was not very useful.

Pei Yichen smiled helplessly, as long as Ning Xia was happy. "I'll get the milk and salad."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Ning Xia was so focused on the cake that she did not notice what Pei Yichen was talking about.

Pei Yichen raised his brows. Why did he feel that she looked a bit like the little hamster in his aunt's store?

"Ning Xia, are you a pig?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

Ning Xia picked up another large piece of cake and stuffed it into her mouth. She did not hear what Pei Yichen said at all.

Pei Yichen curled his lips and took out his phone to play the recording. "Ning Xia, do you love me very much? Which kind of love do you have?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

Ning Xia nodded too quickly and choked, "Cough, cough, water!"

Pei Yichen quickly saved it and poured some water for her. Only then did Ning Xia's breathing become smooth. She looked at Pei Yichen in confusion, "Eh? Didn't you say... what are you doing? Why are you still here?"

Looking at her confused look, Pei Yichen helplessly facepalmed. This guy was really...

"Eat slowly. No one will snatch it from you."

He revealed a look of disgust, as if Ning Xia was a hungry ghost. Ning Xia threw an eye at him. "Hmph ~"

In front of his wife, Pei Yichen tactfully served milk, juice, salad, and fruit salad. He deeply realized that if he wanted to grab Ning Xia's heart, he had to grab Ning Xia's stomach first.

"Ning Xia, I really didn't expect you to love me to such an extent."

Looking at Ning Xia occupying all the breakfast, Pei Yichen couldn't help but sigh at a sentence that Ning Xia couldn't understand.

Ning Xia threw a holy fruit into her mouth and looked at Pei Yichen in confusion.

What did she mean by "she loved him to the point of dying"?

Pei Yichen knew she wouldn't admit it easily. He had the evidence in perfect condition. His long fingers tapped on his phone to record the conversation.

"Ning Xia, do you love me so much that you can't even breathe?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

Click. The fork in Ning Xia's hand fell onto the table, and she stared at Pei Yichen's phone with her mouth agape.

"Ning Xia, do you love me so much that you can't even breathe?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

It was as if she had fallen into an endless loop. This voice had been replaying the entire time. Ning Xia had an awkward expression on her face. This guy actually tricked her!
