Chapter 46: Eternal Love
The next morning, when Ling Xi woke up, left the room and walked around in Taichen Palace, she found that everyone looked at her with extremely strange eyes, some with envy, some with jealousy, and some with admiration.
Ling Xi couldn't help but wonder.
It's only been one night, but why do these people seem different?
So, when she saw Chonglin and Siming, she called out to them: "Chonglin, Siming."
Chonglin and Siming immediately stopped and bowed respectfully to Ling Xi. Their attitude was more respectful than usual, and there was even a hint of flattery in their attitude: "God."
Ling Xi asked the two of them, "Let me ask you, what happened to the people in Taichen Palace today? Why are they looking at me so strangely?"
When the two heard this, their faces froze.
Siming quietly took a step back and acted as if he was about to turn around and run.
Chonglin looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer Ling Xi's question.
He tactfully reminded, "Goddess, everyone in the palace knows about you and the Emperor. But don't worry, only people in Taichen Palace know about it, and people outside don't know."
"Me and the Emperor." What's going on?
Ling Xi was talking when he remembered what happened last night and how the news got out.
Her face turned red.
Donghua!!!!
She asked why he was so well behaved last night and whether he was waiting for her here.
On the way to settle the score with Donghua, Ling Xi finally figured out what was going on.
The entire Taichen Palace knew that Donghua and she lived in the same room.
People in the palace said that the source of the news was the Star Lord Siming. He saw the Emperor coming out of retreat and walking out of the room of the Lord Ling Xi early in the morning. He looked very happy and was in a very good mood.
Siming had a careless look on his face and he accidentally blurted out the matter.
Others thought that the Emperor was in seclusion, but Siming knew clearly that Donghua had come down to the mortal world to experience hardships. Donghua came back silently and there was no movement, but he actually walked out of Ling Xi's house early in the morning. With Siming's imagination, there was nothing he could not think of.
When they found Donghua, he was actually in the kitchen with a lump of white flour in his hand.
This scared Ling Xi so much that she rushed into the kitchen. The first thing she did was to check whether the kitchen was safe and whether anything was missing.
Seeing that everything in the kitchen was neatly placed in its original place, with nothing missing and nothing broken, Ling Xi's heart finally settled down.
It’s not that Ling Xi was making a fuss, it’s just that Donghua’s impact on the kitchen was too great.
There was a period of time when Donghua was obsessed with cooking, not long after she came to Taichen Palace.
To be precise, Donghua has a mysterious confidence in cooking.
Therefore, at that time, almost everyone in the Taichen Palace had been poisoned by the food he cooked.
But Donghua has lit up all his skills except his cooking skill which is black.
God opened all the doors for him except this window.
At that time, rumbling explosions were heard in Taichen Palace every day. If it weren’t for the barrier set up by Ling Xi, the entire Heavenly Palace would have known about it.
During that period, the things that were changed most frequently in Taichen Palace were the kitchen and the pots, pans, and utensils therein, which were changed almost every day.
Later, after tasting the food she cooked, Donghua finally let go of his obsession with cooking, and Taichen Palace finally did not explode.
But today, how did he get into the kitchen again? What was even more surprising was that there was no explosion.
Donghua looked at Ling Xi's reaction and felt a little amused and a little embarrassed.
It would be embarrassing if your wife saw your dark history.
"Don't worry, there was no explosion, and nothing was damaged."
Ling Xi looked at him suspiciously, not quite believing it: "Really?"
Donghua nodded firmly: "I didn't get angry today."
Ling Xi was relieved: "That's good."
Somewhere in Taichen Palace, the immortal servant sighed as he looked at the piles of broken pots and pans.
Donghua put down the crumpled dough in his hand and frowned slightly.
How can we knead the dough? It is so difficult.
His hands can lift the Cang He sword and refine magic weapons, but why can't he cook? Ling Xi found Donghua's actions interesting. She stepped forward, held Donghua's flour-stained hands, put his hands in the basin beside him, and washed them carefully.
She smiled and asked, "Why did you come into the kitchen again today?"
Donghua obediently let Ling Xi do what she wanted and replied, "I want to cook a few dishes for you."
Ling Xi was still angry. She pinched Donghua's slender, bony fingers and asked, "Tell me, did you do that on purpose last night?"
Donghua asked knowingly, with a hint of smile in his eyes: "What on purpose?"
Ling Xi stared at him: "You don't know?"
Donghua shook his head: "I don't know."
Ling Xi turned her head and snorted softly.
Seeing that she seemed angry, Donghua held her hand and said with a smile: "I just announced my ownership. Besides, I finally won your heart, so shouldn't I be allowed to show off a little?"
Ling Xi wasn't really angry, she was just shy.
She pulled her hand free and ran out quickly.
Donghua saw the blush on her ears and his smile deepened.
After Ling Xi sat by the pond for a while, Donghua slowly walked to her side.
However, he did not sit opposite her as usual, but sat directly next to her, with his arm around her waist.
Ling Xi pushed him, but he didn't move, and then he stopped moving.
Let him go.
"Did you suffer any damage during this ordeal?" Ling Xi was afraid that her presence would bring trouble to Donghua, so she looked at him carefully.
Her face is rosy and she looks like a fairy, as if nothing is wrong.
Donghua raised his eyebrows slightly, and a happy arc appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Something happened."
Just as Ling Xi was about to ask, she heard him utter two more words: "Good news."
“But I can’t tell you.” Donghua added.
Ling Xi: “.”
Then what did you say? Ling Xi gave Donghua a displeased look.
Donghua: Now that the debts have been repaid, I can be with my wife without worry, which is of course a good thing.
Ling Xi stopped talking, and it was Donghua's turn to ask, "What about you? Why did you end up in the mortal world? Did the Bai family attack you?"
Donghua had already learned everything from Chonglin, but he still wanted to hear it from her own mouth.
Ling Xi had always held the grudge of that day in her heart, and now that she had an opportunity to complain, she naturally would not hide it.
So she told Donghua the whole story of how the four members of the Bai family besieged her, without hiding anything from them, and even added fuel to the fire.
Although she is honest, she is not someone who will let herself be wronged.
After hearing this, Donghua's expression turned cold, with murderous intent in his eyes.
Seeing Donghua like this, Ling Xi hugged his arm and comforted him with a smile: "But don't be angry, Emperor. I was just a little injured, but they can't be healed."
When Ling Xi thought of the miserable situation of the Bai family now, he felt extremely happy.
Donghua hugged Ling Xi and said in a hoarse voice, "When Shao Wan comes back, we will deal with the Bai family, okay?"
He became frightened when he thought about the possibility that Ling Xi was really poisoned and there was no cure.
He kept the Bai family mainly so that Shao Wan could settle the score with them personally, but if they caused harm to Ling Xi, it was not impossible for him to deal with them in advance.
Feeling Donghua's uneasiness, Ling Xi felt a warm feeling in his heart.
"Okay." She said.
