Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 297: Do You Need to Take a Bath

Li Beinian said she knew how to cook, but in fact, she only knew how to make a few common dishes.

Her hand and face were injured and she could not come into contact with oil, smoke, and knives.

Mu Xichen, who used to wield a knife in the army, was a little clumsy in the kitchen.

However, he was a serious learner and Li Beinian taught him very meticulously.

He was also a fast learner. Although his movements were slow, his pace was not.

Soon, under her guidance, he managed to boil soup, steam some rice, and make two or three simple dishes. Although the appearance was not outstanding, they smelt good.

Even though Li Beinian did not personally touch anything, she monitored the entire process.

When she took a bite at the dining table, the taste seemed not bad.

“Does your hand still hurt?” Mu Xichen looked at her hand.

At this time, she was wearing his jacket that covered her entire body.

Only the smell of medicine could be detected, and it was quite distinct.

Li Beinian glanced at her hand and remarked. “It doesn’t hurt. It was just a graze. I’ll be fine.”

Although there were bruises on her arms, buttocks, and legs, they did not hurt as much anymore.

The only thing that still hurt was her face.

She just looked in the mirror again and realized her face was bruised and swollen.

Thinking about this, Li Beinian mumbled, “I can’t believe I can swallow it.”

Mu Xichen heard it and slightly raised his eyebrow. The corner of his lips slightly arching, he placed some ribs on her bowl. “Try this, you should be able to eat it.”

Holding her bowl, Li Beinian did not hold back after seeing the ribs and took a bite.

Oh... it was a little overcooked.

However, the taste was not bad.

“It’s passable...”

“Try this.”

“It’s ok.”

“This.”

...

Mu Xichen spent the whole time putting items in her bowl until Li Beinian really couldn’t eat anymore. She immediately told him to stop. “Eat it yourself! I’m full!”

“Drink some soup.”

“I’ll take it myself!”

...

After eating, Li Beinian couldn’t hold back any longer.

Seizing the chance when Mu Xichen was still eating, she scrutinized the house.

The layout looked similar to the one on the 19th floor. The living room was smaller and there were three rooms.

The difference was that the 19th-floor unit was bare. Besides some furniture, there was nothing else.

Compared to this, it lacked a homely feeling.

However, it only lacked a little.

The furniture in the house was very simple. There were napkins and a pile of books on a table.

Li Beinian walked over and glanced at a book cover. It was a classic titled “Gone with the Wind.”

Picking up this book, Li Beinian was a little shocked. “Is this book yours?”

Mu Xichen glanced at her and seemed a little uncomfortable. “I just read it when I’m free.”

Li Beinian opened it, saw the dense English words, and exclaimed in surprise, “It’s the original first edition. That’s amazing!”

Mu Xichen asked, “Are you full?”

“Of course I’m full. Didn’t you see how much food you gave me?” Li Beinian flipped through the pages carefully and saw a sentence that was underlined with a red pen.

To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.

Looking at this sentence, Li Beinian was moved. An unknown feeling surged in her heart.

Before she could read on, the book was taken away from her.

Looking up, she saw that Mu Xichen’s face was a little red.

Li Beinian was taken aback. At a closer look, it seemed that the redness was just an illusion.

Mu Xichen hid the book behind him quietly and stared at her with his black eyes. “Are you going to take a bath, then?” he asked.

Li Beinian was startled, but her face turned hot and even her white and delicate ears were red.

Glaring at him, she shouted, “Lecher!”
