Di Fuyi paused for a moment and then replied Bai Ze via directed audio. “I am not good at it… It is too late to learn now!” Di Fuyi was generally a fast learner but was unskilled at cooking. In contrast, his father was an expert in this area, and he always amazed his mother. However, it was a ‘no’ for him; he had zero talent in culinary arts according to his father. Therefore, he had never made a meal for himself all these years since he left home. He did not want to expose his weakness.
Bai Ze looked at Di Fuyi with sympathy and said, “Honestly, General Long makes delicious grilled fish; Divine Lord will probably compliment him if he is here. Your Highness, your father did mention before; you need to take care of a lady’s stomach if you want to win her heart; only then will she never leave you…”
Di Fuyi was upset! He silently groaned. “Shut up! Go get the fish stewed now!”
Awww, it was rare to see His Highness get mad from being shy. Bai Ze found it interesting to see that. His Highness was adorable and good looking when he was young; he was also very energetic to the extent the Eight Mythological Beasts envied his aura. However, His Highness had a very short childhood! He grew up in three years!
His Highness learned to be cunning and cruel but usually remained calm. He always surprised people with random decisions that often triggered and pissed people off; however, it was very difficult for others to drive him mad.
Although the Eight Mythological Beasts were happy that they did not need to worry about him being bullied, Bai Ze, on the other hand, thought that His Highness was too calm and mature- he should be behaving like a child. It was really good to see him being mad.
Bai Ze felt that he had achieved something great, but he knew that he should not tease him anymore. With a smile, he said, “I’ll get it prepared now.”
When he was going to do the preparation, Gu Xijiu came over. “General Bai, you must be tired, let me do it.”
Bai Ze was surprised. “Does Miss Gu often cook?”
Gu Xijiu smiled. “I think my standards are acceptable.” She had already begun to prepare ingredients as she replied.
Long Siye was furious; he immediately put the grilled fishes aside and walked over. “Xijiu, you’re injured, let me do the chores.”
Gu Xijiu shook her head. “It is fine; I am not tired. Instructor Long, go get busy.”
Long Siye was helpless; hence, he returned to his spot and continued to grill the fishes while Gu Xijiu took out her unique pot, which she used to make stewed fish.
Bai Ze was now certain that she was an expert in cooking; to his surprise, she even brought her own seasonings! The Divine Lord also often brought his own seasoning wherever he went to prepare meals for his wife. He did not expect this lady to have the same habit.
A moment later, they could all smell the fragrance that emerged from the pot. It was fresh and nice even before it was ready to eat.
Bai Ze took a glimpse at his little master and secretly guessed that her cooking attracted his master. Perhaps, there would be a madame who was good at cooking in the Fucang Palace in the future? It felt good just thinking about it.
Bai Ze shifted his gaze to Gu Xijiu and smiled with satisfaction. This lady was literally a perfect match for His Highness with so many different talents. It was then that he realized why His Highness worked so hard to get her. That was his first time seeing His Highness care about someone so much.
Soon, a pot of milky fish soup was ready.
