Chapter 438: Heart-Shaped Steak

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

For someone like Ruan Zeyan, days of relaxation and comfort were always short-lived. Ling Tianya knew this well, so she cherished every second of every minute on the island.

Because she didn’t know when would be the next time that the two of them could be by themselves without work, calculated choices, power struggles, or a worry of the world.

However, no matter how much Ling Tianya cherished it, she couldn’t stop the progress of time.

In the kitchen, Ling Tianya was following a recipe on the Internet to make a heart-shaped steak for Ruan Zeyan.

Ruan Zeyan sat on the sofa not far away, his eyes keep glancing at the woman in the kitchen who was busy cooking.

She said that she wanted to make a heart-shaped steak for her husband. She had seen it in a Hong Kong drama before and, at that time, she told herself that when she was married she must make this dish for her husband.

However, this seemingly simple dish was very difficult to make. First of all, cutting the steak into the shape of a heart was quite laborious. Then it had to be marinated and sautéed with wine.

Despite the difficulties, Ling Tianya was still seriously and meticulously following the steps.

But when she finished it, the steak didn’t look very good. The outside was burnt and the kitchen was a mess.

She stood there staring at the steak, and suddenly she was too embarrassed to put it in front of Ruan Zeyan.

Just when she was about to dump it in the trash and start over, Ruan Zeyan embraced her from behind. “Why are you dumping it?”

Ling Tianya felt a bit defeated. “I did a bad job.”

Standing behind Ling Tianya, Ruan Zeyan picked up a shrivelled piece of steak with his hand and put it in his mouth, then proceeded to chew it.

“Hey! It’s all burnt. Spit it out!” Ling Tianya swiftly turned around and attempted to snag the steak from the man’s mouth.

Ruan Zeyan grabbed Ling Tianya’s two restless hands with one big hand of his, and his mouth pecked Ling Tianya’s small mouth while he was still chewing the steak.

A thick burnt smell spread over Ling Tianya’s lips. She furrowed her brows. “How could you eat that… I can re-make it…”

As she was saying that, Ling Tianya had already lost confidence.

Ruan Zeyan gently hugged her. “It’s very tasty, charred outside and tender inside, with a little bit of burnt taste, quite unique actually.”

Ling Tianya had spent all morning making this steak. Ruan Zeyan would not allow himself to ask her to make another one for him.

Knowing that the man was trying to make her feel better, Ling Tianya’s heart warmed. She burst into laughter.

Who could have imagined the normally cold-faced emperor would turn into a full-fledged wife slave after falling into the hands of Ling Tianya?

Ruan Zeyan kissed Ling Tianya’s forehead. “We have to leave here tomorrow.”

The man’s voice was very gentle. He put his chin on Ling Tianya’s head and pulled the woman’s body into his arms. He didn’t want to see her disappointed eyes.

Lo and behold, the leisurely days had to come to an end. Ling Tianya was nestled in Ruan Zeyan’s arms. The disappointment in her eyes soon disappeared.

When she spoke, her voice was bright without a hint of disappointment. “That’s good. I bet the elders must miss us very much! It will make me feel better if we go back sooner and be with them.”

Hearing the answer from the woman in his arms, Ruan Zeyan caressed her back. “After going back, you will officially step into the role of the wife of Ruan Zeyan.”

“I know.”

“In the future, no matter what happens, I’m here.”

“I know.”

In the early morning of the next day, Ruan Zeyan and Ling Tianya returned on a private jet.

When they arrived at the house, it was still morning.

Knowing that Ruan Zeyan and Ling Tianya were coming back today, all the elder relatives in the family gathered at the house.

Everyone was waiting for Ling Tianya, the new female master of the family, to make her debut.
