Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 982 - 985: The Tip of the Iceberg Amidst Thick Fog 9

Luo Xi was almost dead asleep and when someone woke her up with a pat, she was still so groggy that she didn’t know whether she was in heaven or in hell.

Yan Fengchi was lying beside her, watching her adorably struggle to open her eyes.

They say that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, and to him, every little movement of hers was so bewitching that it intoxicated him—a standard Fengchi-style passionate kiss. He embraced her and headed to the dining room, bustling about, his voice so tender that it almost didn’t sound like the Yan Fengchi Luo Xi knew.

"Have more fish soup, it’s good for your health."

Luo Xi glanced disdainfully at the dark and murky fish soup: "Are you sure this is fish soup and not ink?"

However she looked at it, the fish seemed to share a pitiable plight in Yan Fengchi’s hands, its death appearing as tragically heroic. She reached out with her chopsticks, prodded the fish’s belly, and finally couldn’t bring herself to eat it.

Forget it, she felt the cabbage, though also a sorry sight, at least looked a bit better in death since plants seem more presentable than animals.

Yan Fengchi laughed somewhat awkwardly, admittedly lacking culinary skills, and after thinking it over he said, "I’ll hire a chef for the house tomorrow."

"Don’t bother, I’ll leave once my wounds heal. You’re often with the troops, why do you need a chef?" Luo Xi stuffed a mouthful of Little Bai cabbage into her mouth and after chewing twice, she realized something was off. The man who was smiling a moment ago had now entirely reverted to a stern face, staring at her with an ominous glower.

Luo Xi swallowed the Little Bai cabbage, "Why are you glaring at me?"

"You’re leaving!"

"I’ll leave after I’ve healed, no rush," she said, smiling as she lowered her eyes, thinking to herself how this man was so touchy now—a complete firecracker. Why would someone nickname him the Iceberg Beauty? She thought Volcano Beauty would be more fitting, as he’s set off by the smallest thing!

Yan Fengchi gritted his teeth: "Where to?"

"Toronto, of course."

"You’re not allowed to go!" The chopsticks snapped down onto the table as Yan Fengchi’s amber pupils filled with a ferocious light: "If you dare to leave my side again, I’ll handcuff you so you cannot stray an inch away from me day or night!"

Luo Xi raised an eyebrow, tilting her chin up, "If I go, how will I support myself? Don’t I need to work?"

"I’ll, take, care, of you!" Damn it, she said she liked him and still wants to run off, to do some lousy job where she’s constantly under the gun, is she out of her mind? Does she have a death wish or what!

The next second, a hand reached out.

Yan Fengchi didn’t have time to react.

Luo Xi tapped the table, "Credit card, cash, is supporting me just lip service?"

Yan Fengchi (with a head full of black lines///), clenching his teeth, "Quit your lousy job, you won’t miss a cent."

"That’s not okay. I can’t live like a freeloader; I’d go crazy. Besides, Yan Fengchi, don’t you think you’re overstepping? What are you to me to be giving me orders?"

Yan Fengchi’s eyebrows twisted, his gaze turning into a bloodthirsty crimson before softening again. He reasoned gently, wanting to negotiate, "I will take care of all your work and pocket money. I’ll find you a job that won’t bore you or feel uninteresting, being a mercenary doesn’t suit you."

"What job? How is being a mercenary unsuitable for me? That’s my career!" Luo Xi huffed and raised an eyebrow, as if saying hmm, underestimating her, looking for a beating!

Yan Fengchi couldn’t think of any jobs on the spot, and on impulse, he blurted out, "I’ll hire you as my girlfriend!"
