365-Day Trial Marriage With Hunk: Wife's A Little Wild

Chapter 453: Chapter 453: Anything Unusual, Must Be Suspicious
 

“Ahem, ahem…”

The butler couldn’t help but subtly cough twice, winking emphatically at them.

“Not bad, why don’t you give it a try?” Dan Hanjie’s eyes narrowed slightly as he scooped up a spoonful of soup and passed it to Qin Youxuan.

“…”

Qin Youxuan looked down and instinctively opened her mouth to be fed.

Once finished, she even smack her lips.

Hearing his praise, she suddenly thought the soup she made was quite tasty.

“If you like it, drink more. I used fresh ingredients in this soup, and even added some calming herbs. It’s good for your health.”

“Hmm.”

Dan Hanjie’s eyes flickered as he looked at her, an unusual glint in his gaze.

After gulping down three bowls, even Qin Youxuan thought he was about to get full from the soup. She reached out to stop him, quickly pressing his arm, “That’s enough, you’ve almost finished the whole pot of soup. How are we going to eat dinner?”

“Didn’t you want me to drink more?” Hanjie’s enchanting eyes lifted slightly as he paused his hand.

“…I did, but you really can’t drink anymore. You have to save some room for dinner. If you really like it, I can make it again.” The words slipped out of Qin Youxuan’s mouth and she froze.

“I do like it, but I won’t let you into the kitchen again. My woman doesn’t have to do such rough work.” Dan Hanjie pulled her closer to him.

He seized her hand to inspect it carefully.

He noticed several marks that looked like burn scars and his expression darkened in an instant.

His grip on her hand tightened.

Qin Youxuan quickly wriggled her hand out of his hold and hid it behind her back. Her face fell, “You knew from the start that I made it, didn’t you? No wonder you were going along with it. I thought the soup I made was actually good.”

“It really was quite good.”

“You don’t need to console me. If it really was good, how did you know I was the one who made it? I’ve never made soup for you before.” Qin Youxuan said, pointing at her fingers, suddenly feeling quite disappointed.

She had thought he actually liked the soup she made.

“It really was quite good.” Dan Hanjie repeated, “I didn’t figure it out, he told me.”

Dan Hanjie pointed at the butler standing behind Qin Youxuan.

“The butler didn’t say anything.”

“Facial expressions can reveal a lot.” Dan Hanjie lightly smiled.

The hints from the butler weren’t many, but he would always pay close attention to her, and she was quite different today.

Anything abnormal is usually a sign of trouble.

However, he didn’t expect that she would trouble herself to make soup for him…

“…”

Qin Youxuan froze, she turned around to see the butler’s somewhat embarrassed face.

She stared silently towards the sky.

What happened to keeping secrets, Mr. Butler?

“The dishes aren’t all served yet, I’ll go check.” The butler made a hasty retreat.

“Don’t go back into the kitchen.”

Dan Hanjie held her hand, tenderly stroking the red marks, his brows knitted tightly together.

“It’s nothing, I’m inexperienced, it was inevitable that I might get burned a bit. But I was really good— at least I didn’t cut my hand…”

As Qin Youxuan was speaking, she noticed his expression getting darker. She hesitated and then shifted the subject.

“Dan Hanjie, don’t make such a serious face. I was just cooking soup, not fighting on a battlefield. You look terrifying.”

Qin Youxuan reached out and tugged at the corner of his lips, “Smile for me. If the smile isn’t handsome, I’ll send you back, all packed up!”

The servants surrounding them struggled to stifle their laughter and turned their heads.

Only their lady would dare to say she’d pack Mr. Jie up and give him away.

“You dare!”

Dan Hanjie’s handsome face darkened as he held her tightly to his chest.
