When Nangong Lin returned to his room, there was no longer any trace of Yan Xiaoxi. The large room was empty and only a few pieces of pastries were moved. This proved that she had come back here.

"Someone, come." Nangong Lin shouted out and Xiao Cui rushed in from outside.

"Pay respect to Your Highness?" Xiao Cui looked at Nangong Lin in astonishment, the first thing she did was bow.

"Where's the wangfei?"

"To the kitchen."

"The kitchen?"

"Yes." Xiao Cui nodded, her heart was glad, she had just casually asked about the location of the wangfei, otherwise the king would be angry again.

After hearing this, Nangong Lin's ice-cold face relaxed. He thought that Yan Xiaoxi had run out willfully.

"Go down." After knowing Yan Xiaoxi's whereabouts, Nangong Lin rushed to the kitchen without stopping.

When he arrived at the kitchen, he saw the cooks, helpers, maidservants, etc. Everyone was standing outside the kitchen, looking around anxiously, occasionally glancing towards the kitchen.

Seeing this, Nangong Lin quickly understood what was going on.

Yan Xiaoxi was the only one who had the right to make the people in the kitchen leave their posts and stand outside. She was the only one in the entire estate who had the right to do so.

What did this woman want to do now?

You want to destroy the entire kitchen?

"Your Highness." The sharp-eyed chef happened to notice Nangong Lin's tall and imposing figure.

"Greetings, Your Highness." The rest of the people said in unison.

"All of you, leave." Nangong Lin waved his hand without even asking.

Everyone looked at Nangong Lin in astonishment. They thought to themselves, "Is the prince giving too much attention to the wangfei?"

Now that he had chased them out, what was he going to do about dinner?

"What are you all waiting for?" Nangong Lin snorted coldly, scaring everyone away.

Since it was a prince's order, there was no need for them to think too much into it. They could just follow it.

In an instant, the dozens of people at the entrance to the kitchen disappeared without a trace under Nangong Lin's gaze.

Nangong Lin had just entered the kitchen when he smelled the thick smoke. A wisp of white mist floated into his eyes and he could hear the creaking sounds of the firewood beside his ears.

"Cough, cough." Yan Xiaoxi, who was lighting a fire, could not help but cough.

She, who only knew how to roast chicken, wanted to personally cook some delicious foods for Nangong Lin today. She confidently came here and learned from the chef. She was eager to give it a try, but was stopped by the first test.

If Little Linlin found out, he would have laughed his teeth out.

No, no, she couldn't be looked down upon by him. She had to make delicious food.

As she thought of this, Yan Xiaoxi began to blow even harder at the firewood in the stove. She stuffed a lot of firewood in the stove to ignite the gas. It was so densely packed that not even the wind could penetrate through.

"Whooosh." Yan Xiaoxi felt as if she was about to use all her strength, but the fire in the kitchen didn't move at all.

"Xi Er." Nangong Lin walked over to Yan Xiaoxi's side and shouted out.

Little Lin Lin?

Yan Xiaoxi, who had been focused on lighting up the fire, thought that she had been mistaken and did not pay attention to Nangong Lin beside her.

Nangong Lin slightly frowned, pulling up the flustered Yan Xiaoxi who was so busy that she was at a loss for what to do.

With a warm touch and a familiar fragrance, Yan Xiaoxi was sure that it was Nangong Lin who had come to the kitchen.

She raised her head and faintly smiled: "Little Lin Lin, why have you come?"

"If This King didn't come, you would have burnt the entire kitchen." Yan Xiaoxi could actually hear the tone of love in her words.

"Nope." Yan Xiaoxi waved her hand, thinking, how could she be so stupid?

Although her culinary skills weren't good, she was intelligent and could cook with just a bit. She was absolutely a good cook.

"Look at the room. There's so much white smoke. It's almost going to burn up."

Yan Xiaoxi looked around her surroundings when she heard this. It was just as Nangong Lin had said. The smoke was so thick that anyone who looked at it would feel as if they were on fire.

"Why can't you start a fire?" Even so, Yan Xiaoxi was still thinking about the fire in the kitchen.

She really wanted to personally cook a meal for Nangong Lin in order to repay his kindness towards her.

People like Nangong Lin, who was born into the imperial family, lacked nothing. She had seen countless gold, silver, jewelry and rare treasures, so she thought that giving him her favorite item would be food.

"How about I do it?" Nangong Lin pulled Yan Xiaoxi behind him.

"You can cook?"

"Didn't Xi'er eat it before?"

"Yes!" After being reminded by Nangong Lin, Yan Xiaoxi remembered that she had eaten his food twice. One time it was dark, and the other time it tasted pretty good.

"I thought that Little Linlin would only know how to eat. That food is something that Nangong Lin made the first time he found it hard to swallow, and Yan Xiaoxi believed it. But the second time it was something he half believed and half doubted."

"I only know how to eat you." Nangong Lin smiled charmingly and pulled Yan Xiaoxi into his embrace.

Yan Xiaoxi was pulled into Nangong Lin's warm embrace without any preparation. She gave him a furious glare and pushed Nangong Lin's well-built body away. She replied, "Stop messing around, I'll cook something for you."

"No rush." As he spoke, Nangong Lin unexpectedly released Yan Xiaoxi.

"Little Lin Lin, did you die on the bed in your previous life? How come your mind is filled with that sort of thing?" Yan Xiaoxi could not understand how Nangong Lin could be so strong. He refused to let her go even after several consecutive nights. She was really tired!

"Xi Er, this prince should have a child, right?" Nangong Lin looked affectionately at Yan Xiaoxi with a trace of anticipation in his eyes.

"Little Linlin, I …" Yan Xiaoxi wasn't ready yet. She felt that her heart wasn't at peace yet. How could she be someone else's mother?

"I will work hard." Yan Xiaoxi understood immediately.

Had he been working so hard to get her to have children?

"Little Lin Lin, can you …"

Yan Xiaoxi was interrupted by Nangong Lin before she could finish her words. He was domineering and said with an irrefutable tone, "No."

With a child, he would be able to tie Yan Xiaoxi to his side.

"Little Linlin!" Yan Xiaoxi said coquettishly as she shook Nangong Lin's arm.

"Xi Er, I …" Nangong Lin was about to say something, but he suddenly stopped. He was stunned for a moment as he looked at Yan Xiaoxi in astonishment.

He seemed to have forgotten something very important. The strange poison in his body had yet to be treated. If something were to happen, what would happen to Yan Xiaoxi in the future? During this period of time, Yan Xiaoxi had accompanied him. Nangong Lin had almost forgotten that he had been poisoned. Once that poison broke out, he would lose his life at any moment.

"Little Lin Lin?" Yan Xiaoxi quickly discovered that something was wrong with Nangong Lin. At this moment, his eyes were filled with grief. She wondered just what kind of things could make someone as lofty as Nangong Lin bother him so much.

She couldn't help but extend her small hand and place it on Nangong Lin's tightly furrowed brows. His eyebrows were very thick, but they were very pretty.

"Don't frown, it's ugly." Yan Xiaoxi took the initiative to wrap her arms around Nangong Lin's waist, wanting to give him warmth.

No matter what happened, Nangong Lin would always trust her and accompany her. In the future, she would have no reason to trust Nangong Lin either.

"Xi Er, I want to stay with you forever." Nangong Lin's magnetic voice was slightly choked with sobs.

"I will, I promise you. From now on, I will not run around. I will be obedient." After saying that, Yan Xiaoxi made her vow.
