MCIF Chapter 14.2
Chapter 14.2 – Menacing Goddess Worshipper
Nian Bing made seven turns and took eight detours before he arrived at the door of Shui Huo Metal shop. His left hand held green vegetables and meat. He lightly knocked several times on the door. “Feng Nu, are you there?”
There were sounds of footsteps before the door opened. Feng Nu peaked her head out from the doors, and when she saw it was Nian Bing, she couldn’t refrain her laughter. She hurriedly open the door and said, “Come in! Great chef, what’s on the menu today?”
Nian Bing bitterly laughed and said, “I was thinking about coming a few days ago, but there was too many things to resolve, so I wasn’t able to visit you until now. It’s quite embarrassing. Today, I will certainly make you something good to eat.”
Feng Nu’s bright eyes gently blinked. With a smile, she spoke, “I was just teasing you, no need to take it so seriously. Besides, you had matters you needed to take care off. It doesn’t matter what I eat. In fact, up until now, I wasn’t thinking about what you’re going to cook. If I eat too much of your meat, my taste will get spoiled. What would I do when you’re gone then?” After she finished speaking, only then, did she realize the meaning of her words and couldn’t stop from blushing. She hurriedly turned her body and led Nian Bing inside. Watching Feng Nu’s perfect silhouette, Nian Bing secretly nodded his head. When considering appearance and figure, Xue Jing and Long Ling’er had a different charm compared to Feng Nu, especially with her noble and elegant manners. It even gave people a favorable impression. What’s more, she was gentle and soft, a perfect woman. If it was said that his heart wouldn’t be moved, then that was absolutely deceiving himself. It was just that, right now, he only considered Feng Nu as a friend as his thoughts were all concentrated on how to improve his cooking skills and his magic. Until the matters with the Ice’ God’s Pagoda ended, he didn’t wish to think about others things.
Coming into the courtyard, Nian Bing lifted his head to look upon the colored sky, and said with a slight smile, “I’m going to cook in the kitchen first. It will only take a moment.”
Feng Nu glanced back with a laugh and said, “You don’t need to hurry. You can rest for a bit first. That’s right! Today, you don’t need to do such a troublesome thing. It’s really embarrassing since you are a guest. I should make you something to eat instead. Oh! I’m such a big idiot. Besides congee, I don’t know how to cook anything else.”
Nian Bing watched Feng Nu’s smiling face and couldn’t help but turn silly. He mumbled a reply, “Feng Nu, you’re really pretty. Ah! Excuse me, I’ll go cook first.” As soon as he finished speaking, he ran to the kitchen as if he was being chased by something.
As she watched Nian Bing enter the kitchen, a strange light appeared in Feng Nu’s eyes. Her gentle and soft look disappeared, replaced by a grave and stern look as she seemed to ponder about something. She thought out loud, “Let’s forget about it. As far as I’m concerned, obtaining the Heavenly Flame sword is already sufficient and there is no need to be greedy for his Flame God’s stone, right? Him cooking something for me, it’s just letting him off lightly. I believe the elders will not blame me for this. This man called Nian Bing is very odd; there are surprisingly so many treasures on his body. If it were Elder Sister instead of me, I’m afraid there would be nothing left on him. Forget about it. It doesn’t matter. Let’s properly make the True Sun knife as it should be considered a favor to Old Man Hua Tian.” Saying so, the cold light in Feng Nu’s eyes gradually faded away and, once again, she gazed towards the kitchen with a trace of perplexity.
This time, the cooking speed was certainly much faster. Last time, the reason why Nian Bing chose to make the extremely complicated pigeon meat dish was just because of the lack of ingredients. This time, he brought fresh vegetables and meat. It was much easier to make something from this. After 30 minutes, the whole Shui Huo Metal shop was already brimming with an enticing aroma. He made the standard four dishes and a soup, with every dish having their own distinctive appearance. From the color and the smell, it was already enough to determine these dishes were high quality. Nian Bing used a table in the courtyard to put the dishes on. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he smiled and then, yelled towards the room. “Feng Nu! It’s time to eat. Come here quickly!”
