Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots

There are countless pearls in the world, and the most common ones are the white pearls with luminescent glow. Even rarer are the slightly pink-tinged pink pearls, and naturally, the rarest of them all are the black pearls with their sheer transparency and distinctive luster.

A single black pearl is already hard to come by, let alone so many of a similar size. That these rare black pearls are actually used to decorate the soles of shoes, and yet still evoke a feeling of mysterious allure and a proud, profound aloofness—Crown Prince of Xiliang truly knows how to indulge in luxury.

Lin Yuan narrowed her eyes excitedly and sighed inwardly, thinking that such a foolish and wealthy individual was just begging to be taken advantage of. Who else should be conned if not him?

If Su Tianrui was merely startled upon seeing that tall headless figure earlier, then upon laying eyes on this extravagantly adorned He Lienuo, he was utterly astonished!

"Heh, you’ve got it all wrong. I just covered her ears because I didn’t want your grating voice to pollute her delicate, pretty little ears. There’s nothing resembling jealousy or sour grapes about it."

Xia Zheng had always been blunt when speaking, especially towards someone whose voice was more pleasant than his own, and who had happened to hijack half a cartful of Glaze from him along the way—his irritation was all the more intense.

But Xia Zheng was not one to easily let others off the hook when he spoke.

He arched an eyebrow, glancing at He Lienuo who stood hesitantly at the door without entering. The corners of Xia Zheng’s lips inadvertently curled into a smile, his voice tinged with unmistakable mockery and smugness.

"Ha! There’s a rumor that Young Master Helian is as timid as a mouse, extraordinarily cowardly, always with a guard by his side when venturing out. He even fears entering someone else’s room. Today, tsk tsk, it seems that not all rumors are unfounded after all!"

Pfft!
