<h4>Chapter 191 - Hubby, It''s Time To Eat</h4>
Xian Zihao paused and looked at the kitchen knife held high by her. He asked calmly, "What are you trying to do?"
Jiang Run snappily said, "The soy sauce is gone. Are you going to buy it, or should I?"
Xian Zihao''s face immediately turned ck like a pot.
Without waiting for his answer, Jiang Run brought a kitchen knife with her and walked past him, out of the kitchen.
"I''ll go." Xian Zihao sighed and nced at the kitchen knife in her hand. Without another word, he left the kitchen.
Jiang Run put down the kitchen knife and walked back to the kitchen proudly.
Ten minutester, Xian Zihao returned and ced a bottle of soy sauce on the cupboard beside her, but he didn''t move his hand away from the mouth of the bottle.
Jiang Run was about to use soy sauce when she saw his arm lying there. She couldn''t help but raise her head to look at him, only to see a cold sneer in his distant ck eyes. She frowned. "What do you want?"
"Allow me." His suddenughter made her shiver uncontrobly.
Jiang Run was holding a lump of fat in her hand.
She immediately smiled, "Let me do it. You are the dignified CEO, how can I let you cook and do the housework? Like the ancients said, ''A gentleman should avoid a chef''. This little girl here has the virtue of being a good wife. Please, your majesty, continue to read the newspapers."
After saying that, she pointed to the kitchen door with a smile like a blooming flower and made a gesture of "please".
Xian Zihao lowered his head to catch a glimpse of her eyes, then nced at the lump of flesh in her hand. No matter how he saw it, he felt Jiang Run harboring malice.
"You''ve been busy all day. How can I let you cook? Get out now!" Jiang Rn forced a smile on her face.
When Xian Zihao left the kitchen, the smile on her face immediately disappeared.
Jiang Run put the meat on the cutting board, and at that moment, a loud bang'' was heard.
Xian Zihao, who was already walking out of the kitchen, stopped at his track and nced towards the kitchen.
An hourter, Jiang Run ced a te of all kinds of delicious fried and boiled beef and steamed mutton on the table. She then heated the skewers she had brought back with a microwave before cing them on a te.
"Hubby, it''s time to eat ~" Jiang Run still had a smile on her face as she went to invite the very arrogant CEO to the dining room.
Xian Zihao looked at the various pieces of meat on the table and then looked at her.
"What are you looking at? Come, let''s eat. There''s so much food! I''ve specially cooked for you for over an hour. You wouldn''t be so disrespectful, would you?" Jiang Run ced the chopsticks beside his hand with a natural expression on her face.
Xian Zihao raised his eyebrows. He sat down and looked fearlessly at the meat dish on the table. Under Jiang Run''s slightly startled look, he kindly said, "You ate too."
"Wait! There''s still one more dish ~" Seeing that it didn''t seem to have any effect, Jiang Run paused for a moment before turning around and entering the kitchen.
After a few minutes, she came out with a te of fried lotus roots. When Xian Zihao saw the lotus root fried in her hand, his eyes finally glowed contentedly. He took a chopstick to pick up food, but Jiang Run suddenly walked around him and sat across, cing a te of fried lotus roots in front of her.
She widened her eyes and gave a sweet smile to someone who was gradually turning green. Clearly, this te of stir-fried lotus roots was hers.
"Hubby, why are you looking at me like that?" Jiang Run blinked innocently and ced her chopsticks on the stewed beef''s te, and put the meat into Xian Zihao''s bowl. "It''s rare for me to cook so many dishes today. Eat a little more ~."
Jiang Run saw Xian Zihao''s usually calm face changed from green to ck, then from ck to green. The hand holding the chopsticks was about to drop.
Jiang Run saw his intention clearly. Xian Zihao was going to cook his own food, so she immediately said, "There is already a lot of food, and I can''t finish it alone. Are you going to get something else? It''s been said that the internal staff of Xian Group preaches to eliminate extravagance and waste. You are the CEO, so you should at least set an example, no?"
Xian Zihao''s lips curved with a strange smile. He did not go but slowly took the beef piece that Jiang Run had put into his bowl and calmly put it in his mouth.
Jiang Run looked at him with twinkling eyes.
After that, Xian Zihao calmly grabbed a napkin at the end of the table and spat out the shockingly salty piece of beef without even chewing. He then discarded the napkin casually. His actions were refined, and there was not a trace of anger on his handsome face.
So calm?!
Jiang Run frowned inwardly.
She had spilled half a box of salt in each meal. Logically speaking, Xian Zihao must be very thirsty now.
"Why aren''t you eating?" She yed dumb.
Xian Zihao calmly replied, "Nothing good wille out of it."
He then got up and went to the kitchen to pour a ss of water for himself.
Jiang Run''s face darkened when she saw that Xian Zihao was holding a ss of water in his hand and did not feel bothered by her trick at all. She said vaguely, "What do you mean by nothing gooding out of it? Why don''t you eat?"
Xian Zihao nced at her indifferently. Under the gentle light, his beautiful and handsome face had its own elegance. He only said two words, "Very good."
"What''s good?" Jiang Run straightened her back.
"Looks like I used the wrong method." Xian Zihao looked at her for a long time.
Under her questioning gaze, he mmed the ss on the table. "Upstairs."
"What?" Jiang Run froze and was in confusion.
He expressionlessly repeated. "Go upstairs."
Jiang Run wanted to ignore his unusually serious expression, but seeing that he had already left the dining room and was walking upstairs, she put down her chopsticks in the end and stood up to follow him.
When she went upstairs, she saw Xian Zihao''s tall and straight figure entering the study room. She thought about it and felt that it was a bit strange.
Xian Zihao gave her a feeling that she would never know the real face of Liu Ming1. It was really hard to predict, so she followed him once again.
Upon entering the study, she noticed that Xian Zihao had already taken out thick books from the bookshelf. Jiang Run was perplexed. Could it be that she had used the poison in the wrong way?
Xian Zihao took out a stack of Xian''s Staff Manual and gave it to her.
"What''s this for?"
He smiled. "What do you think?"
