Su Jin could not figure out what she had done to make the demon king so angry. She turned and walked into the kitchen. After she took out the ingredients from the fridge, she was still thinking about what she had done. But she had not done anything at all. Why was the demon king angry? Still confused, she asked Xi Chenxiao,
“Boss, I’ve been very well-behaved today. I was attending classes obediently all day. What did I do to make you so angry?”
Xi Chenxiao followed Su Jin to the kitchen and leaned against the kitchen door. He looked at Su Jin with a gloomy expression. How dare this girl ask such a question? How could she not know what she had done? How was this possible? The girl just did not want to admit it. His tone was jealous and unhappy as he questioned Su Jin,
“Girl, am I not good to you? Why do you like women? Why do you like Hou Wan’er?”
Actually, what Xi Chenxiao wanted to ask was not why she liked women, but rather why she didn’t like him. Could he be worse than a woman? Moreover, what was so good about that girl from Hou family? How could she compare to him? When Su Jin heard Xi Chenxiao’s words, she continued cutting vegetables on the chopping board and answered earnestly,
“Because Wan ‘er is a smart, beautiful and likeable girl. She’s also very kind.”
Xi Chenxiao was even more unhappy when he heard this. His expression was frighteningly gloomy as he stared at Su Jin who was cutting vegetables. Did this girl just admit that there was something going on between her and Hou Wan’er? Did she completely ignore his existence? The more Xi Chenxiao thought about it, the angrier he got. He stared coldly at Su Jin and asked childishly,
“What? Am I not smart? Am I not beautiful and likeable? Am I not kind enough?”
Su Jin stopped cutting vegetables when she heard this. She turned her head and eyed Xi Chenxiao. What was wrong with the devil? Was he angry over such a small matter? She and Wan’er were good friends. They had been best friends since young. She looked at Xi Chenxiao again before she continued cutting vegetables as she replied soberly,
“Those words are not appropriate for a man.”
Xi Chenxiao was even angrier when he heard this. He frowned in silence. What he wanted to hear was that she liked him even if he was not smart or likeable, but he got an answer about inappropriate words? Su Jin did not say more and turned on the gas stove to cook the noodles. Soon, the food was ready. She brought it to the dining table and smiled as she said,
“Boss, the food is ready. Come and eat.”
Su Jin made two bowls of the noodles. She had not eaten her fill at lunch before she was escorted home by the two beauties. Since the devil also had not had lunch, the two of them could eat together. Su Jin did not wait for Xi Chenxiao before she sat down and started eating her noodles. The world was vast and filling her stomach was the most important thing right now. She would be anxious all day if she hadn’t eaten her fill.
Xi Chenxiao saw Su Jin enjoying her food and joined her at the dining table. Seeing that the noodles looked quite good, he felt a little hungry. He picked up the chopsticks that Su Jin had laid out for him and started eating elegantly. After a few mouthfuls, he looked up at Su Jin and asked,
“Why don’t you like me?”
Su Jin was happily eating her noodles when she heard Xi Chenxiao’s sudden question. She was instantly stunned and came back to her senses. She looked at Xi Chenxiao in disbelief. Devil Xi actually asked her such a question? Could she be so hungry that she was hearing things? She asked Xi Chenxiao with a surprised expression,
“Um, what did you say just now?”
Xi Chenxiao saw Su Jin’s adorable look and the tip of his ears turned red. He felt warm and a hint of discomfort flashed across his face. He frowned as he continued eating his noodles silently. He had asked so clearly, how could the girl not hear him?
Su Jin looked at the silent Xi Chenxiao and thought about his question. How could she not like the devil? Was it not obvious enough? At the thought of this, Su Jin’s heart started to beat faster. Her face flushed and her heart pounded as she asked again,
“Um, what did you say just now? Are you sure you’re asking me? Ask me again clearly now and this time, I’ll answer your question properly, giving you a satisfactory answer.”
