Meng Zhi quickly let go of his hand and grinned at Qu Li.
He showed his two big white front teeth, looking a little silly, and Qu Li couldn't help but curl up her red lips.
Xiao Xian's face was dark, and he kept brushing the sleeves that he had hugged. Still feeling unsatisfied, he kicked him again.
Meng Zhi's eyes were filled with resentment, and he said in a muffled voice, "Your Highness, I will withdraw now!"
After saying that, he left quickly.
Looking at this fat ball, which actually ran at the speed of Bolt, the smile on Qu Li's face deepened.
Xiao Xian was dazzled by her bright smile.
Qu Li withdrew her gaze indifferently and continued cooking.
Looking at her slender back, Xiao Xian walked behind her as if possessed.
The chef was a tactful man and left quietly.
"When making medicinal food, the most important thing is not your knife skills, but the order in which you put the ingredients in, and..."
Smelling the scent of Xiao Xian, Qu Li's eyes flashed coldly. He grabbed the kitchen knife beside him and said with a half-smile: "I'm good with a scalpel! The kitchen knife is not bad either. If you don't want to turn into these tofu shreds, you can give it a try!"
Xiao Xian was standing at the door just now, looking at her fair wrists and slender swan neck. It seemed as if a fire was burning in his lower abdomen, and his legs came behind her completely without the control of his brain.
"Don't get me wrong!"
"What misunderstanding?" Qu Li sneered, "How dare you have such dirty thoughts, but don't have the courage to admit it?"
"I just want to learn how to cook from you."
"Oh?" Qu Li raised the corner of his eyebrows and smiled coldly and evilly.
Xiao Xian suddenly felt guilty and looked a little embarrassed.
With a "bang", Qu Li threw the kitchen knife onto the chopping board, and Xiao Xian's eyebrows jumped.
"Don't you want to learn how to cook? The first step in cooking is knife skills. See those potatoes over there? As long as you can cut them thinner than a hair, I'll teach you how to cook!"
She deliberately emphasized the three words "hand in hand", and her eyes were full of wisdom.
Xiao Xian frowned and stared at her critically for a full minute.
He knew she was deliberately setting a trap for him, but the temptation of holding hands was too great. He pursed his lips into a line and nodded, "It's a deal!"
"good!"
When she first learned knife skills, it was to practice, but Xiao Xian's hands, which held a sword, might not be able to cut potato shreds.
Xiao Xian rolled up his sleeves, picked up a potato, and frowned, as if he was solving a difficult math problem.
"Bang--"
After one cut, the potato didn't split open, and the knife was stuck deep in the chopping board and couldn't be pulled out.
Qu Li sneered: "Let's find a chef to teach us first!"
Xiao Xian was particularly embarrassed.
He thought cutting a potato was a very simple thing. After all, it was easy for him to chop off the enemy's head with a sword. But he didn't expect that a potato would be so difficult to cut.
Seeing that Qu Li's attention was on the medicinal food, he walked out with a gloomy look.
Meng Zhi secretly saw that Xiao Xian couldn't cut a potato with one knife, and laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.
Seeing him coming out with a dark face, she quickly put away her smile.
"Your Highness, it's said that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. Besides, every ruler has its strengths and weaknesses. It's understandable that you're not good at cutting vegetables!"
Xiao Xian's eyes were cold.
Meng Zhi rubbed his head and said, "Your Highness, I and the two chefs will study the recipes given by the princess and we will be able to open the restaurant in about seven days."
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time and his eyes were looking outside the door, I followed his gaze and looked outside.
"Nanqi hostage? Who is the woman next to him?"
Xiao Xian sneered, and a smile appeared on his originally extremely ugly face.
Meng Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a chill on the back of his neck. He silently lit a candle for Feng Yi in his heart.
Qu Li came out with a tray.
Before he even opened the lid of the soup bowl, Meng Zhi, whose nose was as sharp as a dog's, could smell a rich fragrance.
His small eyes narrowed into a line, gleaming with brilliance, "The princess is indeed a good cook!"
Meeting Xiao Xiansen's cold eyes, he coughed twice and said, "Your Majesty, please taste it first!"
However, Qu Li didn't even bother to glance at him. He said to the two chefs and Meng Zhi, "Try it. If you have any questions, just ask!"
After all, the Empress Dowager has not fully recovered yet, and she cannot leave the palace at any time.
Meng Zhi and the two chefs felt that the air around them was getting thinner and thinner, and the three of them were a little scared.
"Princess, the prince has eaten many delicacies from land and sea, and his taste has long been spoiled. Why not let him have a taste?" Meng Zhi suggested.
Xiao Xian's expression lightened slightly.
Qu Li pondered for a moment and forced out an "OK".
"I swear, this is definitely the most delicious medicinal food I have ever tasted!"
"If I could, I would eat the soup bowl!"
Meng Zhi curled her lips and said, "You two silly chefs, if it tastes good, just eat it quickly. Didn't you see how fast the prince eats?"
He picked up the soup bowl with a pair of fat hands and drank the soup. He felt pain in his feet and was about to shout out, but Xiao Xian bent his fingers and sealed his mute point.
Meng Zhi wanted to cry but had no tears. She watched helplessly as Xiao Xian drank all the soup in the soup bowl, looking up at the sky with a depressed heart.
Qu Li asked: "How?"
"The princess's medicinal food is simply delicious!" The chef named Erzhu praised sincerely.
"I once had a medicinal meal, but the taste of the herbs was too strong and affected the taste! The princess's medicinal meal does not have the bitter taste of herbs at all. On the contrary, because of the addition of herbs, it feels like the freshness of the ingredients has been brought out." Another chef also praised it.
Xiao Xian only gave one word - wonderful!
Qu Li shifted his gaze to Meng Zhi's face again.
Meng Zhi pointed at his mouth, his eyes full of resentment and pain.
"Boss, why don't you say anything?" Erzhu showed an understanding look: "It must be too delicious, right?"
Qu Li held the silver needle and inserted it into Meng Zhi's mute point with a "whoosh".
Meng Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and wailed, "It hurts so much!"
Xiao Xian's eyes were full of threats, and Meng Zhi wanted to cry but had no tears. "It's delicious, so delicious! It's so delicious that I can't even speak!"
Qu Li didn't expose it.
After receiving favorable comments and instructing them to study the recipe carefully, she prepared to go back with Xiao Xian.
Xiao Xian glanced at the teahouse across the street and suggested, "Since you're here, why not go in and have a seat?"
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Many times, don't you think you've been too extreme? I've certainly hurt you before, but killing someone isn't even close to the limit..."
Qu Li showed impatience between his brows and walked into the teahouse.
Xiao Xianxiu raised his eyebrows slightly and followed.
Qu Li suddenly stopped and looked at Feng Yi who was walking down from the second floor, and the woman following him.
Feng Yi's eyes changed instantly. He glanced at Xiao Xian, whose lips curled up in a mocking arc, and clenched his fingers.
The woman next to him, through the veil, looked at Qu Li's face, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
"The Fifth Prince really has a lot of free time. Is he planning to bring back a powerful princess when he returns to Southern Qi?" Xiao Xian rubbed his fingertips, raised the end of his eyebrows, and teased with a half-smile.
