Chapter 116 Capturing a Person's Heart
In the days that followed, wherever Lan'er appeared, the sound of a flute would always accompany her.
At first, when Lan'er noticed that Di Feisheng was always silently following behind her, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. After all, Di Feisheng's icy demeanor, coupled with the cold aura he occasionally emanated, made Lan'er tremble with fear.
However, as time went by, Lan'er gradually got used to Di Feisheng's presence. She discovered that although Di Feisheng seemed cold and indifferent on the surface, he actually had no ill intentions towards her. On the contrary, he would quietly take care of Lan'er in some small ways, such as helping her carry things, getting her a cloak when it was a bit windy outside, and quietly pushing her on the swing when she was sitting on it. He would also have someone bring her food and little trinkets every day.
Lan'er had a pretty good impression of Di Feisheng from the start. After all, he was the first person she met after arriving in this world, and he even arranged accommodation and food for her.
Moreover, Di Feisheng's subordinates took good care of Lan'er, which made her feel a sense of warmth in this unfamiliar environment. Although Di Feisheng's expression was always cold, Lan'er knew that it was just a habit of his and did not mean that he was really indifferent.
Now, Lan'er has completely gotten used to Di Feisheng's presence. She feels especially at ease with Di Feisheng by her side. This person is just cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
That day, the area outside the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance's kitchen was bustling. When Lan'er arrived, she saw a large group of people gathered outside. Curious, she watched from behind, wanting to hear what they were doing.
"Do you think the leader's cooking is edible?" Someone peered into the kitchen, swallowing hard.
"What I'm worried about now is whether the kitchen will still be usable later?" They haven't eaten yet today.
"What's gotten into the leader? Why is he suddenly cooking?" someone asked, puzzled.
"What do you know? Of course, it's about pleasing Miss Lan'er. There's a saying that goes, 'The way to a person's heart is through their stomach.'" Since it's written all over your face, you probably don't understand.
It has to be said that this guy knows what he's doing. It just so happens that Di Feisheng was inspired to cook because of that very sentence.
Here's what happened: Li Lianhua wrote the word "heartfelt" for him. But this single guy had never known anything about love. So he asked Wuyan to collect a lot of stories about romance for him.
He read in some storybooks that the key to winning someone's heart is to quietly accompany them, let things develop slowly, and eventually they'll be together. But during this time, he saw no progress. Then, he happened to see a book that said, "The way to a person's heart is through their stomach."
The Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance's cook got up to prepare breakfast. As soon as he entered, he saw Di Feisheng and assumed he was still asleep. He quietly left, but soon returned and found Di Feisheng still there. He looked like he'd seen a ghost.
Just then, Di Feisheng had spent the entire night in the kitchen pondering something, and was now quite annoyed. He had been fiddling with it all night but still couldn't figure it out, and had made a complete mess of the kitchen.
Upon seeing the cook, he coldly said, "Come here, how do you cook?"
The cook snapped out of his daze and walked over somewhat nervously, saying, "Alliance Leader, what would you like to eat? I'll make it for you. How could I let you do it yourself?"
Di Feisheng said impatiently, "Enough with the nonsense."
The cook swallowed hard and began his lesson. After he taught him once, Di Feisheng shooed the man out and confidently started practicing on his own.
Gradually, word spread that the alliance leader was cooking. Then everyone came to check and see if it was true. That's how the scene just now unfolded.
Lan'er was incredulous upon hearing the words of the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance members. Di Feisheng was cooking, and to please her? How could that be? And why...why would he want to please her? Suddenly, her face flushed red, as if she had just thought of something. He...could it be...?
