Chapter 575: Chef Li’s Charm
Chi Shuyan didn’t know that in the aftermath of her level 3 Energy Recovery Pill, more and more people were coveting her pills.
After setting up the Seven Stars Array, Chi Shuyan was very pleased. Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, she went to Lu Chengfu’s house to pass Lu Chengfu and Yu Jinzhou the bracelets.
Ever since the imperial chef started staying with Lu Chengfu and Yu Jinzhou, their standard of living had skyrocketed. Every day, they ate until their mouths overflowed with grease. According to Lu Chengfu, waking up every morning and smelling the food filled them with optimism.
Even the calm and rational Yu Jinzhou felt that the past few days had been too good. As expected of a royal chef.
Lu Chengfu also brought the food cooked by Chef Li to Yu Jinzhou’s dormitory. Xiao Le and Lu Yunfeng couldn’t forget how the food tasted and couldn’t stop craving it.
They had been asking every day where on earth Lu Chengfu and Yu Jinzhou had gotten the food from.
It would have been fine if they hadn’t eaten Chef Li’s food; not eating it anymore after that one time was simply torture.
These days, whenever Lu Yunfeng and Xiao Le came looking for him with bitter expressions, Lu Chengfu was very proud and happy.
Lu Chengfu and Yu Jinzhou now hoped that Haozi’s sister-in-law wouldn’t pick up Chef Li and the two brats so soon; the best would be if she forgot them for a few years.
The two brats were also especially lovable. Lu Chengfu and Yu Jinzhou liked them more and more. It was only the two of them in this huge apartment. Lu Chengfu and Yu Jinzhou knew that after confirming their relationship, the only way they could have children would be through surrogacy, so they were especially fond of the two cute brats.
Chef Li and the two brats also lived quite comfortably at Lu Chengfu’s place. At first, Chef Li was a bit restrained. After all, it was inconvenient to stay in someone else’s house.
Moreover, he had the two children with him. Fortunately, Miss Shuyan’s friends were especially good and welcomed them. Chef Li heaved a sigh of relief and worked harder to cook for Miss Shuyan’s friends.
But since he enjoyed cooking the most, it was more fun than torture for him every time he cooked. Miss Shuyan’s friends also liked to eat. Every time they asked him what they would be eating, and finished all the food he made, Chef Li was also very happy.
Not long after lunch, Lu Chengfu hugged the lovable Han Yu and couldn’t help but ask Chef Li what they would be eating for dinner.
After Chef Li rattled off a list of food, Lu Chengfu, who had just eaten his fill, felt greedy again. However, he really couldn’t eat anymore. Even if he could, Jinzhou wouldn’t allow him to eat more.
Satisfied, Lu Chengfu clamored, “Chef Li, you’re too good!” Why wasn’t this imperial chef part of his family?
Chef Li chuckled and said, “Young Master Lu, I’ll go buy groceries first!”
Although Lu Chengfu was gluttonous, he had also been afraid of troubling Chef Li at first. However, when he saw that Chef Li really liked to cook, Lu Chengfu heaved a sigh of relief. Hearing Chef Li’s words, Lu Chengfu smiled and told him to rest for a while; there was no rush.
As an imperial chef, Chef Li was very strict when it came to selecting ingredients. If he went out later, all that was left would be ingredients that weren’t too fresh, which Chef Li resolutely rejected. He also said that the nearby supermarket was very close by.
Only then did Lu Chengfu agree. Chef Li had been cooking for them lately. After thinking about it, Lu Chengfu went to buy a lot of branded clothes to compensate Chef Li and the two brats. He hoped that when his sister-in-law came to pick them up, Chef Li and the two brats wouldn’t be willing to part with him.
He didn’t dare openly poach them from his sister-in-law, but he did a lot of sneaky things. Who asked the imperial chef to be too charming to resist?
Chapter 576: Little Fellow Li Yu’s Allegation
As soon as Chef Li left, Lu Chengfu swallowed his saliva in satisfaction when he thought about dinner. He hugged Han Yu and asked, “Xiao Yu, do you like Sister-in-law or do you like me more? Do you think Big Brother’s family is good? When Sister-in-law comes, why don’t you tell her to let you guys stay a little longer?”
When Lu Chengfu finished speaking, Li Yu, who had just pushed the room door open as he came out, stared warily at Lu Chengfu.
Lu Chengfu felt very helpless when he looked at the wary and arrogant Li Yu. When his sister-in-law was still around, the little guy was cute and obedient like any other ordinary kid.
Who would have thought that Li Yu, this little guy, would hear him coax Xiao Yu to stay a few more days and not return to the villa?
This little guy’s attitude toward him actually changed a lot. Every time, his little face was cold and arrogant.
His aura was indeed that of a little prince.
Lu Chengfu didn’t quibble with the little guy, and waved for Li Yu to come over. Who would have thought that the little guy would suddenly frown and say coldly to Han Yu, “Xiao Yu, come down! You’re not allowed to get close to this person anymore!”
Han Yu: …
Lu Chengfu: …
Without waiting for Lu Chengfu to speak, Li Yu said, “We definitely have to go back in the future! If you don’t go back, I won’t want you anymore!”
As soon as Li Yu said that, Han Yu, the young attendant, jumped in fright and immediately struggled free of Lu Chengfu’s hold as he said, “I’ll go wherever Ninth Prince goes!”
Lu Chengfu was stupefied. It wasn’t as if he hadn’t tried coaxing Li Yu to stay a few more days, but who would have thought that this kid would ignore him and stare at him as if he harbored ill intentions.
Lu Chengfu was helpless. At that moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Lu Chengfu picked it up. When he saw that it was his sister-in-law calling, he quivered. Wait, Sister-in-law wasn’t going to take Chef Li and the two brats away now, right?
Did she have to be so quick?
Lu Chengfu didn’t dare imagine what his days would be like after Chef Li left. After eating food cooked by an imperial chef, whatever takeout he had after this would be pig swill.
If Sister-in-law was really going to take Chef Li and the others away, Lu Chengfu was going to cry himself to death. He made up his mind that if Sister-in-law really was picking them up, he would have to ask Chef Li to cook dinner for him first.
He had been wondering when to invite Wang Xuewen, Jian Chongying, Lu Yunfeng, and the others over for dinner to show off the imperial chef.
His hopes were dashed.
Lu Chengfu wanted to cry but had no tears to shed. No matter how much he didn’t want to answer the phone, he didn’t dare not answer a call from his sister-in-law. When he picked up, his sister-in-law’s familiar voice rang out. “Open the door, I’m outside!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the doorbell rang.
Li Yu wasn’t human, and his eyes and ears were very sharp. At that moment, when he heard Chi Shuyan’s voice, the little guy suddenly rushed excitedly to the door and opened it for Chi Shuyan before Lu Chengfu could get up.
Chi Shuyan saw a little radish open the door for her. Although the little guy’s mouth was still pursed tightly, the excitement in his sparkling eyes was a warm welcome.
Chi Shuyan pulled the little guy into her arms and rubbed his head. Before Lu Chengfu could come over, Li Yu puffed up his cheeks and complained solemnly, “Shuyan, your friend bribed us every day when you weren’t around. I think he has ulterior motives!”
