"Alright, you guys go ahead and talk. I'll make you some food," Madam Yue said with a smile.

Yue Feng was all smiles. "My wife's cooking is not bad. You guys are in for a treat."

Only Yue Lanchen revealed a terrified expression. "Mom, why don't you get the servants to cook? I think you shouldn't work too hard!"

"I'll go cook it. This is a token of my appreciation! You sit with your Sister Shi." Madam Yue had long been grateful for Shi Jin's help during this period of time. Now that she finally had a chance to express her gratitude, how could she let it go?

Yue Lanchen could only watch her enter the kitchen.

"Sister Shi, I do have to thank you for tonight." He brought Shi Jin a drink and looked at the injuries on himself that his father had inflicted.

At this moment, he felt a little aggrieved. His father went to entertain guests and his mother went to the kitchen. Did no one see his injuries?

Sob.

Shi Jin took the drink from him and said, "Bring your medicine box."

"Forget it. I'll get the butler to apply the medicine for me later. I'm afraid Brother Xiuyuan will hit me."

"Cut the crap. You think he'd consider someone like you a love rival? Grow up first." Shi Jin knocked him on the forehead.

"What's wrong with me? I'm almost eighteen too, okay!"

He gasped in pain as Shi Jin pressed him into the sofa.

Shi Jin found the medicine box under the coffee table and applied the medicine.

Looking at the messy wounds, they were all from Yue Feng. They were all superficial wounds. There was no need for Shi Jin to prescribe any special medicine. The medicine here was enough. Yue banchen grimaced in pain. Shi Jin quickly treated his wounds.

Embarrassed, he picked up some other clothes to change into and said, "Thank you so much for tonight. I didn't expect you to break into a place with so many people to save me." "I've already told you, it's not for you," Shi Jin said.

Madam Yue brought over the food. "This is my specialty, lotus root wine. Come and try it."

At this moment, Yue Feng and Fu Xiuyuan had finished talking.

Yue Feng greeted everyone warmly. "Try it, everyone."

The lotus flower floated on the surface of the soup, and the lotus root wine was hidden at the bottom of the lotus flower. It looked pleasing to the eye.

Yue Feng was the first to pick up a bowl and take a sip. His face was filled with intoxication. At this moment, even his infuriating son was pleasing to the eye.

Fu Xiuyuan and Shi Jin could not refuse and each picked up a bowl.

Shi Jin took a bite. A fishy smell assaulted her nose. The raw taste was also very strong.

She immediately felt like she was going to die.

Fu Xiuyuan held the bowl but never took a sip.

Yue Feng said enthusiastically, "Try it. My wife is best at this."

Yue Lauchen finished the contents of the bowl in two or three mouthfuls and snatched the bowl from Shi Jin's hand. "Heavens, I'm so hungry. Let me eat some more." With that, he finished everything in Shi Jin's bowl in a few mouthfuls.

"You child! You..." Madam Yue did not expect her son to be so rude.

Yue Lanchen glanced at Fu Xiuyuan and braced himself to snatch the bowl from his hand. "Give me yours too."

With that, he finished another bowl in two or three mouthfuls.

"You're ridiculous!" Yue Feng said angrily.

"I'm just so hungry. After all this tonight, I didn't even have dinner. I'm about to faint."

"Okay, okay, I'll make more," Madam Yue said quickly.

Seeing that his son's lips were still injured, Yue Feng could not bear to continue reprimanding him. He only said, "I'm sorry, my son is really a little insensible and impolite."

"It's okay." Shi Jin had already taken the opportunity to replace a tissue and spit out the lotus root in her mouth.

She glanced gratefully at her savior, Yue Lanchen.

Fu Xiuyuan stood up. "No need for the trouble, Madam. It's late, and Shi Jin and I should take our leave."

"I see..." Madam Yue felt regretful that she couldn't showcase her cooking.

Yue Feng was also rather regretful. He didn't easily allow his wife to display her skills. He couldn't bear to let her cook even once a year. Fu Xiuyuan and Shi Jin really didn't have the luck to eat her cooking today.

Yue Lanchen heaved a sigh of relief. "I'll see you guys off."

He sent Fu Xiuyuan and Shi Jin out and said apologetically, "I forgot to tell you guys before. My mother's culinary skills... Only my father can be blind and brag about it. I usually don't eat her cooking. It's a good thing that my father dotes on my mother and can't bear to see her go back to the kitchen too often, so there aren't more people poisoned by her. I can also stay safe."

Shi Jin did not have much feelings for this couple before, but now, she felt that they were quite cute. A smile appeared on her lips. "Thank you for saving my life."

Yue Lanchen scratched his head. "I'll cook for you myself next time."

"Yeah, okay, go home. Come to the set early tomorrow," Shi Jin said.

"Yes!" Yue Lauchen's good-looking face was filled with anticipation for the crew.

After getting into the car, Shi Jin thought of the couple and couldn't help but smile. "Don't you think that Yue Feng and his wife are quite interesting?"

"Indeed. I lost my appetite just by smelling that bowl of soup. Yue Feng is impressive for being able to drink it." Fu Xiuyuan was still dominated by the fear that the bowl of soup brought.

"So, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, isn't it? Even a bad bowl of soup is delicious." With that, Shi Jin suddenly remembered what she had cooked that night. "What do you think of my cooking?" "Delicious food, others are not worthy." Fu Xiuyuan blurted out, his expression not fake at all.

Shi Jin was a little suspicious, but his expression could not be more real. She could not help but smile.

"Then I'll make it again for you another time."

"I'm looking forward to it."

"What did Yue Feng say to you?"

"There are protective forces behind that bar. They often do things to drug young people. If my people hadn't gone over tonight, the police probably wouldn't have been able to save those friends of Yue Lanchen's. He said he wanted to govern these bars and asked me to cooperate."

Shi Jin nodded. "How arrogant! How can the imperial capital tolerate these people? They should be dealt with."

"Promise me..." Fu Xiuyuan gripped her wrist.

Shi Jin's felt the grip on her wrist tighten as she looked up into his deep and lingering eyes.

He whispered, "No matter when, put yourself first."

He didn't disagree with any decision she made, but he was afraid of any damage she might suffer as a result.

That was something he could not accept no matter what.

Shi Jin pressed her lips together in a thin smile. She lifted her head and kissed him on the lips, using her actions to fulfill her promise to him.

The next day, Shi Jin arrived at the set early. She had come early because she had to do her makeup.

Unexpectedly, Yue Lanchen had already arrived and was reading obediently.

When he saw Shi Jin coming over, he quickly stood up and handed her a thermal lunch box. "My mother made breakfast herself... She insisted that I bring it for you."
