"Oh, oh! It's really magical." Irene didn't stand on ceremony at all. After taking the roasted chicken, she took small bites and tasted it. Seeing her eat happily, Nangong Xiao secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
It was good that he didn't ask. If he asked, he really didn't know how to answer…
"By the way, are you here to take a shower?”Looking at the bath tools beside Irene, Nangong Xiao asked curiously.
"Yes ~~ I'll tease Lao Zhe with my eyebrows…"
"Swallow it before you speak!" Nangong Xiao was speechless. No matter what, she was still a beauty. Why did she have to disregard her image? This was in front of an outsider. Could it be that this woman no longer treated him as an outsider?
"Gulp ~~ Hu ~~ I come here every day to wash up. By the way, so it's you. No wonder I find that someone has used this outdoor bathroom before me every day.”
" Is this considered a bathroom..." Nangong Xiao was a little speechless. This was just beside a well. However," Speaking of which, do you shower here every afternoon? Don't you know that girls should be more careful? There wasn't any concealment here. If someone peeked at them, wouldn't they be at a disadvantage?”
"I'm Battle Lady. It's not a big deal even if someone sees me. There's no such thing as being reserved or shy on the battlefield. Besides, no one else will come here except you, who doesn't know the rules.”Irene licked her fingers as if she had not had enough. However, Nangong Xiao found it a little funny. Did this mean that every pet had its owner?
He actually finished off a roasted chicken so quickly.
"Alright, I understand. Do you still want it?”Nangong Xiao asked generously.
"Oh, of course!" Irene seemed to really like the roast chicken produced by the system, but this was understandable. Nangong Xiao had some understanding of the food in this world. It was really not very good. It could barely be said to be unique. However, the roast chicken produced by the system was the pinnacle of cooking. Even in the modern era, the roast chicken produced by the system was definitely one of the best in the era, let alone in this era where food was not developed.
Although Nangong Xiao understood the temptation of roast chicken, he still asked," Have you not eaten dinner yet?”
"Yes, but I still want to eat."
"If you eat too much, you won't be able to sleep at night.”Nangong Xiao opened his Backpack and took out a cup of apple juice." Drink this. It will speed up your digestion."”
After taking the apple juice, Irene seemed to have understood something." So you really want apples to make apple juice... By the way, you..."
"You promised."
"Alright, you really don't have the self-awareness of a servant.”Irene smiled.
"I am not a servant, but a captive.”
"I don't think you have the self-awareness of a captive.”After drinking the apple juice, Irene's brows curved into a crescent shape. It was obvious that she liked this taste very much.
If she was like him, drinking a cup every thirty minutes, would she still have such a cute expression on her face…
"Cough, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first.”Nangong Xiao didn't answer Irene's question and planned to leave. After all, she still had to take a bath. She couldn't just stand there and watch, right?
Although this would definitely be very interesting…
"Are you leaving? You haven't finished showering just now, right? Do you want to join us?"
"Is this what a lady should say?" Nangong Xiao raised his eyebrows. He could not understand this woman's way of thinking. No, at least under her serious gaze, it didn't look like it.
I'm Battle Lady."
"So…Battle Lady can't be a lady.”Nangong Xiao shook his head in amusement, picked up his bath tools, and left slowly…
……
"By the way, my dear lord, may I know why you're here at breakfast time?”
The next morning, Nangong Xiao had just received breakfast from the maid. Before he could eat, he welcomed two special guests. No, it should be three.
The three guests were none other than Irene, her adjutant, Lim, and the young dragon.
"Roasted chicken!" Sitting on the only chair in the room, Irene happily patted the wooden table.
" You're really not polite…" Nangong Xiao looked at Liam with a headache and found that she had been puzzled since she came in. It was probably that Irene had not explained it to her.
As for the Dragon Whelp, it had already flown onto Nangong Xiao's shoulder. It stuck out its tongue and drooled like a waterfall.
By the way, are you a puppy? Why was he sticking out his tongue and wagging his tail?
"Roasted chicken and apple juice!" At this moment, Irene once again patted the wooden table with a smile.
Irene, is it really okay for you to be so childish? Your adjutant's eyebrows are almost touching each other.
After Nangong Xiao complained to himself, he took out three portions of roast chicken and two portions of apple juice from the system and placed them on the wooden table with some heartache.
Was this considered reaping what he sowed?
Seeing Irene and the Dragon Whelp eating happily, Nangong Xiao even felt that these two would definitely come over every day, or even every meal.
Lim, on the other hand, widened her eyes and even circled around Nangong Xiao, as if she wanted to know where Nangong Xiao had taken out these fragrant roast chickens.
But at this moment, Irene spoke up," Liam, I promised him I wouldn't ask, so don't ask. Mmm, come and have a taste. This is definitely a thousand times more delicious than what the royal chefs in the palace make!”
Since Irene had said so, Lim could only suppress her curiosity, but her heart was filled with doubt and shock, making her feel very uncomfortable. However, after eating the roast chicken, all those messy thoughts in her mind disappeared, and the reserved Lim was completely immersed in the incomparable delicacy.
Not long after, Irene raised her hand and shouted. "More!"
"Swallow the food in your mouth first. Also, there's a limited supply! From now on, every day, no, every three days…one every five days!”
"Rejected! You are mine, everything you have is mine, how can I limit the supply!”Irene, on the other hand, slapped the table and stood up in dissatisfaction.
"Even if that's the case, it won't do! This is all money!"
"If you want money, I can pay!"
"You can't give it to me!"
"How could that be? " I…" Just as Irene was about to say something, Nangong Xiao raised his hand and interrupted her.
"You really can't give me that. I won't tell you the reason. However, if you want me to provide roast chicken or even more delicious food, there's no problem.”
"As a servant, you dare to raise conditions for your master?”Irene sat down with a smile.
"I am a captive."
"Is this the attitude of a captive?”
"Cough, my condition is very simple."
"Hey, hey, hey, are you changing the topic? Did you change the topic?"
Looking at the man and woman who were acting non-stop, Lim was a little stunned. When did her lord become so close to this guy? Also, wasn't this too rude?
Lim wanted to teach this guy a lesson, but Nangong Xiao said,"
"If the Arthas territory is attacked, I hope you can send troops to help.”
“!!”Irene and Lim were both surprised, but Irene leaned back in her chair and asked with a smile.
"Tell me, what happened?"
" Just take it as my intuition. Of course, I'm not naive enough to ask for reinforcements with just food. We can do it in the form of employment. I'll pay enough money.”
"Your redemption fee hasn't been delivered yet.”
"You don't have to worry about that. I naturally have a way to pay.”Nangong Xiao paused for a moment and then said," Of course, it's fine even if you want the entire Arthas territory, as long as you can handle the relationship between the two countries and treat the people of Arthas fairly.”
" You're really…" Irene and Liam exchanged glances, not knowing what to say about the man in front of them.
After a moment of silence, Irene asked curiously," You seem to be certain that the Arthas territory will be attacked.”
"If nothing unexpected happens, I believe that it won't be long before news comes from Arthas. Of course, it would be even better if there isn't." Nangong Xiao had also considered it. Instead of waiting for the incident to happen and passively coming to ask for reinforcements, it was better to take the initiative in advance.
In some sense, this was a business without capital. After all, he was not from this world. The Arthas territory was not important to him.
Irene lowered her head and was silent for a while. Then, she smiled and said," Sure.”
"My lord!"
Irene raised her hand to stop Lim and continued," If the Arthas Territory is really attacked, I will send reinforcements. However, the conditions are as you said. The Arthas Territory will belong to me, and as the lord there, you will also belong to me.”
" After all the assumptions are established, I will use my own method to offer my loyalty.”Nangong Xiao stood up and stretched out his right hand, but he immediately withdrew it and gave a noble salute.
"Your method?" Irene was a little curious.
"You have to look forward to it." The corners of Nangong Xiao's mouth curled up slightly as he spoke…
In the next two days, Irene, Lim, and the young dragon became frequent visitors to the stone house. Naturally, Nangong Xiao also tried to satisfy the stomachs of the two women and the dragon.
The so-called changing method was to go directly to the kitchen and cook personally. After all, it was too wasteful to always use the things produced by the system. As for cooking personally, there was actually no recovery effect. There was not much difference in taste at all, especially after Nangong Xiao's craftsmanship became more and more proficient. The taste of the food he cooked and the food produced by the system could not be distinguished at all.
Even Lim found it unbelievable that Nangong Xiao had such superb culinary skills, let alone Irene.
Nangong Xiao was a noble, and he was an Earl with a territory. Even a noble from the countryside would not cook personally in this era.
However, Nangong Xiao not only had extraordinary culinary skills, but he also seemed to be very happy.
Irene and Lim could only sigh at this. This guy really didn't have any sense of nobility…
This kind of leisurely life did not last long. On the fifth night, Nangong Xiao received a mission from the system.
