Chapter 773: In The Tomb 5

Looking at his angry face, Lian Qian was surprisingly calm.
She had been alone for more than ten years and thought that she would be like this for the rest of her life.
She had never thought that one day, she would change for a chef.
She had felt a new life that she had not had for a long time. How could she not seize it?
Back then, she married with hope, but on that wedding night, all her hope was dashed. She did not want to fight back and made compromises one after another. When she was in pain and sadness, she often cried. After crying, nothing would change.
But now, she would not let herself be taken advantage of. If she didn’t want something, she would say it.
After the man left, Lian Qian washed up and rested. Perhaps because she did not eat at night, she did not feel sleepy. The night was very quiet. She went out of the room. Because she never needed service at night, the servants were all sleeping soundly.
After entering the inner courtyard, Lian Qian came to the kitchen. This kitchen was used mainly by Chef Wang. It was clean and tidy.
Lian Qian came to fetch some food. When she saw a lidded bowl on the table, she opened the lid and saw the pastries in it. She felt warm inside.
She took one and ate it. The pastry was filled with something and was sweet.
After eating it, Lian Qian prepared to return to her room to rest. When she was full, she felt sleepy. However, as soon as she left the kitchen, she met Chef Wang.
Lian Qian was very embarrassed.
Chef Wang smiled. “Madam, are you hungry? I still have some noodles left. It’ll be ready soon.”
Lian Qian looked away and said, “I’ve already eaten the pastries. There’s no need to trouble yourself.”
Chef Wang entered the kitchen and said, “It’s no trouble. The pastries are not filling. Madam will be hungry again after sleeping until midnight. After eating noodles, you won’t be woken up by hunger at midnight.”
As Chef Wang spoke, he had already begun to quickly start the fire. The pot was clean. After wiping it with an oilcloth, he took some shredded meat and stir-fried it. Soon, he added water.
Lian Qian looked at the shredded meat that had been prepared long ago and asked, “Do you prepare these things every night?”
Chef Wang said as he skillfully made the noodles, “Madam, 1 remember that you didn’t eat anything tonight, so 1 prepared some. That’s why 1 came to take a look.”
Usually, Lian Qian would eat three meals a day on time, so he only needed to wake up early.
Lian Qian did not say anything, but she felt warm inside.
Su Yanyu knew that the chef had successfully entered Lian Qian’s heart through her stomach. Su Yanyu felt that Lian Qian would fall in love with this chef.
If Lian Qian could fall in love with someone else, she would have the courage to divorce.
However, Su Yanyu was also a little anxious. He could feel everything Lian Qian felt. If Lian Qian and that chef did that kind of thing, would he…
Su Yanyu was panicky and wanted to escape, but he could not find a way out because he was trapped in Lian Qian’s world.
The noodles cooked by Chef Wang were very light, but there was also some meat. Lian Qian ate it slowly.
She looked at Chef Wang. “Thank you. Rest early.” 𝗇𝑂𝐯𝓮𝓛𝓃𝖊xt.𝚌𝚘𝓂
Chef Wang nodded. “Madam, you too.”
When Lian Qian returned to the main room, she quickly fell asleep. This time, she did not dream. When she woke up at dawn, she washed up as usual. Today, she drank sweet soup. Lian Qian liked this faint sweetness.
After drinking the sweet soup, she went to the study, but not long after, an uninvited guest came.
The man said coldly, “From today onwards, I want to manage the household myself. You’ll move from the main courtyard to the side courtyard.”
The man instructed righteously. He felt that the reason why Lian Qian dared to challenge him was because she was managing the household. When he took back this right, Lian Qian would be nothing.
Lian Qian’s hand that was flipping through the account book paused. She looked at the man calmly. “Which family do you want to manage? Haven’t you always been the one in charge of your family?”
This mansion was hers.
The man was furious. “What do you mean? This is my house.”
Lian Qian was very calm. She slowly stood up and took out the title deed for the man to see.
The man was in disbelief. “You, you sold my house!”
The title deed was already under Lian Qian’s name. Everything here was hers.
Lian Qian’s gaze was calm. “Back then, you married me because you wanted my dowry. Do you know how much you’ve spent all these years? Do you think your family can afford it?”
The man only felt anger rushing to his head. He glared at Lian Qian and felt that she was the most vicious woman in the world.
“Go back to your courtyard and live your life with your loved ones. Don’t disturb me. We’ll mind our own business.”
Lian Qian couldn’t even be bothered to look at the man.
The man was so angry that his head buzzed and he stormed out of the main courtyard.
To Lian Qian, the man’s anger meant nothing. She couldn’t even be bothered to deal with him.
The man also seemed to be shocked. When he realized his situation, he really stopped pestering Lian Qian.
Lian Qian’s life did not change much. The only change was that she liked to eat the dishes cooked by Chef Wang.
Sometimes, she would go to the kitchen to take a look. Chef Wang would tell her where these dishes came from. Sometimes, the two of them would eat together. Lian Qian would smile.
The light was back in her eyes.
Lian Qian liked Chef Wang, but perhaps because she was no longer a young girl, she did not plan to say it out loud. Lian Qian was an old-fashioned woman.
She seemed to intend to continue like this.
In reality, Su Yanyu’s expression was blank. No matter how Liu Yuanyuan called him, he would not respond. However, from time to time, Liu Yuanyuan would see Su Yanyu’s expression change. He was dull and lifeless, either in pain or smiling..
