Jin Huan's POV :

When I'd mastered the skills of cooking spring rolls, I even knew how to boil Shanghai pork belly to a curry.

But at that time, no one appreciated my cooking, except Li, who I'd marry in the twenty second chapter, if you readers had been reading something else the other day.

To impress others and her, I'd written a beautifully crafted letter. But I didn't.

"Look, I just want to rest, alright?" I requested the beautiful fairy queen in will o the wisp version. She had made some magic tea for me to help me sleep.

She nodded.
Then she out her hand over to me.

"Give me your letter."
I stared at her. "Why do you want it?"
"To burn it."

Terrified, I ran away from her and burnt the letter myself. That was not nice.

Crying in Li's arms, I convinced myself, This is because many people want to write instead of show. No, speak.

Then I went up to her and then offered her a tray of fresh raw fish or tuna. Bowing down, I expected her to grab me by the collar and slap me but she wouldn't do that. She took the tray and handed me the tea.

That way, I fell asleep after drinking the tea.

The entire palace woke up by the sound of the shrieking whirlwind. That was silly because we'd never encountered one. That meant it would be bad.

All at once the citizens of the palace ran forward. Not by accident, the bamboo tree removed and flew backward.

A man screamed in the background.
Help! Another yelled.
