A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 998 A Pig?
The moment the stunning woman placed the food in her mouth, she was stunned.
Her eyes trembled in surprise.
In that instant, she felt as though an unknown delicious flavor had suddenly exploded in her mouth like a bomb.
She continued with more bites.
In the end, her tiny mouth was completely filled with food.
It was simply delicious.
Absolutely delectable.
Since young, she had sampled all manner of delicacies in the world. However, she had never tried such delightful cooking before.
In the past, eating was just a necessity and made no difference to her.
After all, a powerful martial artist could absorb spiritual energy as nutrients.
Hence, she no longer took food that seriously.
However, it didn't cross her mind that food could make her so touched.
Indeed, the simple fare was now a joy to eat.
Very quickly, she finished an entire bowl of rice.
"Granny, is there more?" asked the young woman as she looked at Old Madam Chu a little embarrassedly.
Old Madam Chu and Ye Fan were both stunned.
Who would have expected that cold and elegant woman to eat so much so quickly?
To begin with, Old Madam Chu had only taken a bite, and Ye Fan had only eaten one-third of his fill. However, she had already polished off an entire bowl of rice.
The young woman polished off three bowls of rice in total and wiped out most of the food on the table.
If she hadn't already finished all the rice, Ye Fan was confident she would continue eating.
Powerful martial artists could naturally eat far more than an average man if they tried.
"Granny, I'm full. Your cooking is delicious. I haven't had such good food in a long time. The last time I did, it was when my father was still alive. Your cooking really reminds me of my father. Granny, enjoy your dinner. I'm heading back to my room first, so you can eat in peace."
The beautiful woman praised Old Madam Chu's cooking before putting down her bowl and chopsticks to leave.
Only Ye Fan and Old Madam Chu remained here looking at the plates that the woman had cleaned out as their eyes twitched hard.
"G-Great grandmother, are you sure she isn't some pig?" asked Ye Fan in shock with the corner of his eye twitching.
It was the first time he ever encountered anyone with an appetite like that.
He hadn't even touched his rice, but she had already wiped out all the food.
She was simply a pig.
Old Madam Chu smiled sadly. "Maybe she's had too many delicacies all her life and found the sudden change appetizing. It's normal. Completely normal."
Such situations had been recorded in history. A long time ago, a Qing dynasty emperor accustomed to eating delicacies all the time suddenly ended up losing his appetite. He was barely capable of eating any food and started to lose weight.
They scoured the kingdom for physicians, but no one was capable of treating him.
One day, the chef used some ingredients he planted at home to make him a dish commonly found among commoners -fried rice with egg. The emperor ended up wiping it out and was cured of his ailment. Hence, Old Madam Chu thought the young woman probably felt the same way.
But Ye Fan certainly had pretty amazing cooking skills.
Or else, Qiu Mu-Cheng wouldn't keep going home to eat Ye Fan's food. She didn't even bother to eat food prepared by chefs from so-called five-star restaurants.
In Qiu Mu-Cheng's opinion, Ye Fan's cooking rivaled that of those famous chefs.
"Enough. Stop thinking about that. Let's eat."
Old Madam Chu told Ye Fan to go on eating.
However, Ye Fan felt angry the moment his eyes landed on the empty plates.
Eat?
Everything was gone. There was nothing left to eat.
Was he supposed to just eat white rice?
The night went by quietly.
The next day, Ye Fan continued practicing Yin Dragon God Body.
However, Ye Fan made no progress for five days in a row.
He was unable to make any progress or even figure out what to do.
How was he to master this skill?
"No. I must have made some mistake.
What should I do now? I can't keep wasting my time here either. I have to master the Yin volume and make my injuries recover as soon as possible."
Even if Ye Fan had the time to spare, his men at Dragon God Hall certainly didn't.
He had yet to execute his plans.
More importantly, he had to hurry back to
Jiangdong as soon as possible to stabilize the situation.
It was probably okay for Ye Fan to go back now.
However, if Ye Fan recklessly returned to Yunzhou before he had recovered completely, he would probably end up drawing attention from Chu Zheng-Liang and his son.
Ye Fan was absolutely certain that the Chu family were watching Mount Yunding Villa.
If he went back now, Ye Fan would probably be incapable of surviving any attack unscathed, let alone stabilize the situation there.
He couldn't underestimate how powerful Chu Zheng-Liang's men were.
So before Ye Fan managed to recover completely, he couldn't fight Chu Zheng-Liang head-on.
"It seems I have to beg that woman after all."
Despite Ye Fan's reluctance, it was his only choice.
He had witnessed her using Yin Dragon God Body, so she definitely knew how to practice it.
After making up his mind, Ye Fan headed to the woman's room.
"Hmm? She's not around. Where is she?"
Ye Fan was instantly puzzled.
He could faintly hear the sound of a sword clanging in the backyard.
Sure enough, Ye Fan followed the noise and found the woman in the backyard. She was dressed in purple with her lips fiery red.
She brandished her sword under the heavens.
Her flawless figure and stunning features made all other things on earth pale in comparison.
Even though she hadn't fully recovered, she was able to move around with ease.
She couldn't stand staying stuck in the room, so she came out to practice swordplay.
She seemed to detect Ye Fan's presence and hastily turned to send sword energy flying towards Ye Fan.
SWISH!
Countless leaves twirled in the cold wind.
Ye Fan's sleeve flapped along with the channel of energy.
"You have three seconds to make yourself scarce! Or else, don't blame me for being heartless," a cold and merciless voice quietly rang.
Instead, Ye Fan shook his head and smiled. "You talk tough all the time, but you are incapable of killing me now."
"How dare you provoke me! You're asking for it!"
SLAASH!
At the drop of her voice, her sword came aiming Ye Fan.
Ye Fan dodged sideways to the left and avoided her attack effortlessly.
The woman wanted to activate her internal energy and send him a powerful attack.
However, the moment her internal energy started running through her body, they pulled on her injuries. She trembled before spitting blood out.
Ye Fan hurriedly came over to help her.
"See? Why keep pushing yourself? What's the point of doing that? You'll just end up hurting yourself. I ruined your black lacy underwear, but I already promised to compensate you." Ye Fan shook his head as he sighed.
The moment she heard what he said, she almost passed out from anger as she blushed in embarrassment.
"You shameless fellow! Shut up this instant!"
