Chapter 229: Chapter 229

When Tang Zan returned from washing up, he found Shu’er had taken over the entire bed.

She coughed lightly and said, "Tang Zan, you can sleep on the floor. Right here beside my bed, I’ve already set it up for you."

If it’s too far away, the Power of Plot will be ineffective.

But in Tang Zan’s view, Shu’er appeared to be playing hard to get.

Clearly reluctant to part with him, she had him sleep nearby on the floor, yet stubbornly pretended not to want to share the bed with him.

But it’s okay; in this situation, a woman should never take the initiative, so he would be the one to take action.

After that, Tang Zan lifted the blanket and got into bed by himself.

Shu’er widened her eyes.

"Tang Zan, what are you doing?"

Tang Zan said, "It’s cold on the ground."

Shu’er replied, "You don’t seem like someone who’s afraid of the cold."

This warm body temperature was almost making Shu’er break out in sweat.

Tang Zan was reluctant to go down, but finally got kicked by Shu’er.

Shu’er insisted, "Hurry up, get down."

Seeing her resist so much, Tang Zan got out of bed and sighed at the end.

However, Shu’er didn’t know why, that night felt very hot.

When she woke up, she was lying alone on the bed.

Perhaps it was the lingering summer heat, combined with the tent being roasted by the sun during the day.

That’s probably why it was so hot at night...right?

As for Tang Zan, he had already gone outside for morning practice.

Shu’er went to supervise the inspection of the city walls.

The soldiers weren’t involved in these areas, it was the same one thousand exiled criminals as before.

So the progress was much slower.

During daytime, Shu’er supervised inspections.

At mealtime, if Shu’er was resting, Zhang Feng would have her cook.

Shu’er thought that the food was so awful, she might as well cook it herself, improving the meals for her people.

Moreover, they had already prepared the ingredients, she just had to stir-fry them, which wouldn’t waste too much time.

The Fire Head Army gathered around Shu’er watching her cook, purely with a mindset to learn.

Yet everyone learned, but never succeeded in learning.

Even though the steps were the same, they couldn’t understand why the taste was always a bit off.

Missing that fresh flavor and perfect temperature control that Shu’er achieved.

The dish in the pan was aromatic and colorful, the scent hooked the Fire Head Army, causing them to swallow involuntarily.

After the meal was finished, everyone returned to their own living quarters.

At this moment, the Fifteenth Prince Yan Hengjin followed the aroma to the kitchen, and his eyes brightened at the sight of the delicious food on the table.

This aroma, he was very familiar with it, just like the delicious meal he had a few days ago.

Back then, the food was delivered to his tent, and after tasting it once, he couldn’t forget it.

When asked, they only said it was made by Commander Zhang.

Afterward, the food made by the Fire Head Army seemed like pig food to his eyes.

This time, he happened to smell the same aroma again and immediately left his tent.

He was almost impatient.

Upon walking outside, Yan Hengjin realized the room was already filled with people.

Even Shu’er and Lin Zhi Yan Huan Yu were inside, all small leaders and households.

Yan Hengjin walked to the table, and Commander Zhang invited him to sit with a smile.

Yan Hengjin smiled at Shu’er, "There are married women here, sitting here might not be appropriate for me, right?"

Shu’er calmly replied, "If the Fifteenth Prince thinks it’s inappropriate, soldiers can set up another table."

Yan Hengjin looked at the table and noticed several dishes that weren’t available elsewhere, only on this table.

If he went to another table, he’d miss out greatly.

Thinking this, Yan Hengjin said lightly, "Why don’t you sit at another table? We men might discuss topics that aren’t suitable for you to join."

After speaking, he looked at Zhang Feng.

"Commander Zhang, since you cooked the food, you should have the most authority to speak."

Zhang Feng was stunned, then honestly replied, "Shu’er cooked it, I don’t have such cooking skills."

Shu’er didn’t expect Zhang Feng to be so straightforward and couldn’t help but look at him differently.

Looking over, she saw Zhang Feng with an expression of relief; the Fifteenth Prince’s temper was odd, he didn’t want to be dragged out at midnight to cook supper.

So he would rather say it was Shu’er.

He glanced at Shu’er, raising his eyebrows as if to say he was granting her the chance to shine.

"You made this?" The Fifteenth Prince’s tone was full of doubt.

Shu’er nodded, then picked a piece of food with chopsticks and continued eating.

Doctor Liu drank coldly, "Good for you, Shu’er, the Fifteenth Prince is asking you a question, and you dare not stand up to answer."

Shu’er stood up, "These meals were made by me."

After saying this, she took out a handkerchief, wiped her mouth, and intended to leave.

The Fifteenth Prince was stunned, such delicious dishes were actually made by such a young girl, that’s impossible!

These delicious dishes, at least, require many years of culinary skills to make.

Perhaps this time the taste was only similar to the previous banquet, given that it’s possible for ingredients to have similar scents.

Yet her attitude, the Fifteenth Prince hadn’t said anything, and Doctor Liu shouted again.

"Shu’er, you’re too much, treating the Fifteenth Prince so disrespectfully."

Tang Zan stood up, tugged at Shu’er, and left, saying lightly, "We’re just making room for the Fifteenth Prince."

After saying this, the two left.

The Fifteenth Prince looked at the table, noticing that Tang Zan and Shu’er had already eaten most of the food, and there was much less on the table.

He was a bit angry, but the desire to eat good food overpowered that anger.

"Someone, bring me a set of dishes."

He was determined to try and see what kind of delicacy Shu’er, that daring girl, had made.

He picked up the chopsticks and tasted a bite, then paused, feeling his face hurt.

Was simply marvelous.

Moreover, it tasted similar to the previous banquet, meaning Shu’er had actually cooked the banquet?

A young girl capable of supervising the city walls, even making them so well.

She even knew medical skills, managing to concoct the Yama Powder in a short time, he had only seen this one person in the world.

Now even more amazing, to make such delicious culinary creations.

A person’s energy is limited, generally, one would only be proficient in one skill.

It’s extremely rare for someone like Shu’er to excel in three skills, each one mastered.

While the two walked away, Shu’er spoke to Tang Zan about her request.

"Do you have someone suitable who can teach me kung fu and swimming?"

Tang Zan was silent for a moment. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novęlfire.net

Shu’er said, "You’re so busy; just find someone else."

Tang Zan said, "Let me teach, both of these skills involve some physical contact during teaching, it’s not appropriate for others to teach you."
