Chapter 14 - Cooking Together with the Empress
Bang.
The door closed, and Longyue dove headfirst onto the sofa like a salted fish, so tired she didn't want to move another inch.
In her entire life, she had never taken so many steps on the ground. After shopping at the mall for a whole day, the soles of her feet were aching terribly.
She never thought a mortal’s body could be so fragile and weak…
Besides the physical fatigue, she also felt mentally exhausted.
No matter where she went in the mall, she was mistaken for being a couple with the Demon Sovereign. On top of that, in the lingerie shop, she was forced to try on all sorts of strange and peculiar underwear.
Even now, she couldn't forget the way that female shopkeeper stared at her body with shining eyes, occasionally reaching out to touch her, and constantly muttering things like, "I'm not a lesbian, I just think you are truly too beautiful"...
In the end, she was so scared that she randomly picked a few sets of underwear and hurriedly fled the store.
“After walking for a whole day, it seems the Empress is really tired.”
Longyue lay motionless on the sofa, her round cheeks squished upwards. Her cute yet lifeless appearance made Lin Fan feel amused.
Longyue shot an annoyed glance at Lin Fan, too tired to even bother talking.
“This sovereign will put the cake in the refrigerator first. You are not allowed to sneak a bite; you have to wait until after dinner to eat it.”
Lin Fan put the cake in the refrigerator, deliberately instructing Longyue. He then carried the groceries he had bought into the kitchen.
“Of course I won't sneak a bite!”
Watching Lin Fan’s back as he walked into the kitchen, Longyue responded with a petulant and dissatisfied tone.
No matter what, she was still the Empress of the Immortal Realm. No matter how much she wanted to eat it, she would never do something like sneaking food.
How dare that detestable Demon Sovereign doubt her lofty moral character!
Inside the kitchen, Lin Fan skillfully handled the ingredients he had bought, managing two stovetops at the same time.
Hearing the sounds from the kitchen, Longyue curiously got up and walked inside.
“Demon Sovereign, you actually know how to cook?”
“Mmm, there was a period of time in the past when this sovereign always cooked for myself.”
Lin Fan explained flatly while busy chopping meat.
Before he transmigrated, after graduating, he had always cooked for himself in order to save money to buy his own house.
Now, after several hundred years, it was a rare occasion to step into a kitchen again.
A trace of surprise appeared on Longyue’s face.
The majestic Supreme Sovereign of the Demon Realm actually cooked for himself like a mortal.
This was completely different from the Demon Sovereign in her impression…
“D-Do you need help?”
Watching Lin Fan’s busy figure, Longyue hesitated for a moment before asking.
Lin Fan stopped the kitchen knife in his hand and turned his head to look at her with some surprise.
“The Empress actually wants to help?”
Longyue’s pretty face turned red.
“This Empress just doesn't want to accept your, Demon Sovereign's, favors for free.”
Hearing this, Lin Fan raised his hand and pointed to the green vegetables soaking in a basin of water.
“Then I’ll have to trouble the Empress to help wash those vegetables over there. That shouldn’t be a problem for you, right?”
“Hmph! It’s just washing vegetables. Don’t you look down on this Empress.”
