Vol. 1 - Chapter 66 - Never Done It Before
The next morning, Luo Ruying sat upright in front of her makeup mirror and combed her hair, her graceful and flawless figure clearly visible.
“Let me help, Dear.” Ning Yechen approached Luo Ruying from behind, and his breath brushed against her ear and cheek.
“Do you know how to do hair?” Luo Ruying asked in surprise.
“By even asking, you’re underestimating your husband.” Ning Yechen smiled, took the comb and hairpin from her hands, and combed her long hair carefully.
Luo Ruying sat in front of the mirror and quietly let Ning Yechen comb her hair.
Even though he was unfamiliar with it, his hands were astonishingly deft. Before long, he finished combing her smooth, long hair, tied it up, and secured it with a hairpin.
Luo Ruying looked in the mirror in astonishment.
Luo Hongye was excitedly jumping around Ning Yechen’s feet. “Daddy, my turn.”
“Okay. It’s my adorable Yeye’s turn.” Ning Yechen smiled, carried Luo Hongye, sat her down in his lap, and carefully tied her hair into two buns on each side of her head.
Luo Ruying watched from the side.
Even though she had never seen this hairstyle, she had to admit it was super cute.
After Ning Yechen finished doing his daughter’s hair, Yue Qingyou’s voice sounded from outside the door. “Young Master, Young Madam, breakfast is ready.”
“Thank you,” Luo Ruying replied, picked up Luo Hongye, and opened the door.
Yue Qingyou was standing poised outside the door.
The moment she saw Luo Hongye’s cute hairstyle as Luo Ruying held her, Yue Qingyou’s eyes lit up. In an instant, she was overwhelmed by an uncontrollable urge.
Fortunately, she was able to contain her actions in time.
It was so strong that she nearly could not suppress the urge.
The princess was beyond adorable!
She desperately wanted to hold the princess in her arms like Luo Ruying.
When Ning Yechen arrived in the main hall, he noticed the fine spread on the table.
“I didn’t know you could cook.” He was surprised and secretly sent a voice transmission to Yue Qingyou.
In his impression, she did not know how to cook!
“After I found out about the princess, I spent three days learning,“ Yue Qingyou answered calmly through voice transmission.
Now, Ning Yechen was truly shocked.
Did she have to go this far? Just thinking about the chief commander of the Demon Realm learning to cook, it was incredible!
Luo Ruying was also surprised. She sampled some dishes, and her eyes instantly lit up.
The food tasted very good.
Luo Ruying got some soft and tender fish meat and placed it in Luo Hongye’s mouth.
Luo Hongye chewed it and let out a bright smile. “Yummy~”
“It's an honor that you like my cooking! If it pleases you, I will prepare food for you every day!” A satisfied smile appeared on Yue Qingyou’s face.
Other than the Demon Lord, she was the first to receive praise from the princess!
The time she spent practicing cooking did not go to waste!
It was worth every moment!
Meng Niu and the other two stood behind Yue Qingyou obediently.
In the past, Luo Ruying permitted them to join the table at meal times. But now that Yue Qingyou was here, they didn’t dare.
She had mentioned that if they did anything above their station, she would personally take care of them!
She was just as scary as the Demon Lord!
And she was even stricter than the Demon Lord!
Seeing Meng Niu and the others standing around, Luo Ruying smiled and said, “Sit down and eat with us.”
“We are staff, and our duty is to serve you. No one has the right to sit with you,” Yue Qingyou said sternly with a bow.
Luo Ruying did not expect Yue Qingyou’s strict sense of duty. “It's okay. Besides, there's a lot of food, and we shouldn’t waste it.”
“This won’t do! This is above our station.” Yue Qingyou declined without hesitation.
Luo Ruying did not know what to do about the stubborn Yue Qingyou.
Ning Yechen patted Luo Ruying’s shoulder and said, “You have to try another way.”
He turned to look at Yue Qingyou and said lightly, “This is the order. Sit down and eat together.”
Yue Qingyou hesitated for a moment before nodding and sitting down. “Yes, Young Master!”
She wanted to refuse, but she could not defy the Demon Lord’s order.
In the Demon Realm, no one could refuse his orders!
She could only agree.
Only after Yue Qingyou took a seat did Meng Niu and the other two dare to sit down gingerly.
Luo Ruying felt helpless.
These people would only sit when given the order.
She had spent a long time trying to convince them, but her words could not compare to an order.
Just as they sat around the table, a knocking sound came from the door.
Without guessing, Ning Yechen knew it was Qi Yuan at the door.
Even though he had told Qi Yuan to swing by today, he did not expect her to come so early.
Qiang Se got up to answer the door.
Sure enough, it was Qi Yuan visiting them.
“Hello, Big Sister Luo, Big Brother Ning,” Qi Yuan greeted warmly as she entered the room.
After defeating the Jiang family yesterday, the Qi family had been busy absorbing and taking over the Jiang family’s territories in Nanli City.
However, the Qi family welcomed such work.
Since yesterday, she has been smiling nonstop.
“Yeye.” Qi Yuan walked straight to Luo Hongye, squatted down, and rubbed her cute chubby cheeks.
“B-Big Sister Qi…” Luo Hongye’s cheeks were being rubbed so hard that she had trouble speaking.
When Yue Qingyou saw Qi Yuan rubbing Luo Hongye’s cheeks, her eyes widened in shock, and she looked over frostily.
This girl actually dared to rub the cheeks of the princess of the Demon Realm like this!
It was unforgivable!
She had never rubbed Luo Hongye's cheeks like this before!
“Demon Lord, who is she? May I kill her? Don’t worry. I promise not to complicate things for you! It will be a quick and easy death!” Yue Qingyou did her utmost to suppress the murderous intent surging from her. She sent a voice transmission to Ning Yechen while staring at Qi Yuan like she was prey.
As long as the Demon Lord agreed, she would make this woman disappear immediately!
Ning Yechen glared at Yue Qingyou angrily. “No!”
Yue Qingyou wanted to kill Qi Yuan merely for rubbing Luo Hongye’s face. She was overreacting!
Moreover, Qi Yuan was doing this to Luo Hongye because she liked Luo Hongye, so it was impossible for him to let Yue Qingyou touch Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan vaguely felt a chill behind her. When she turned around, she made eye contact with Yue Qingyou’s glacial eyes.
Only then did she realize there was someone she did not know present.
This older woman’s looks could compare to Luo Ruying’s.
However, this woman seemed so scary.
She was looking at Qi Yuan intently and did not look very happy.
Qi Yuan wondered what she had done wrong.
