Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl

Chapter 68 - 68: 68 The Ancient Clan Arrives

Unable to hold back, Jiang Xiaobai rushed into the kitchen and rummaged around to find fresh meat and rice.

There and then, he decided he would make Ao Yan a dish of fried rice with egg.

Although he knew that cultivating immortality meant abstaining from food, Jiang Xiaobai had watched many dramas in which a major plot point was for the male protagonist to cook for the female protagonist, which was always pleasing to her.

At the moment, he could only think of this simple method to cheer up Ao Yan.

Right after, Jiang Xiaobai put on his chef hat, donned an apron, and began frying the rice by beating eggs, chopping meat, and falling into a rhythm. Despite being a lazy homebody in his previous life, if he couldn’t cook himself, he would have starved to death long ago.

Before long, a bowl of steaming chicken fried rice was done, not just that, Jiang Xiaobai had also added some magical herbs to the rice. Due to his profound knowledge in alchemy, the look of this bowl of fried rice was mouth-watering and had miraculous effects when consumed.

Jiang Xiaobai walked out of the kitchen with the fried rice, as soon as Ao Yan caught the aroma, she unconsciously swallowed her saliva.

Although she had already abstained from food, the fragrance was so tempting that she couldn’t help but salivate. Being caught in such an act made her feel very embarrassed and her face turned even colder.

“Eat it while it’s hot, it’ll lose its flavor once it gets cold,” Jiang Xiaobai chuckled.

Ao Yan glanced coldly at the plate of fried rice in front of her. She really wanted a taste, but due to her pride couldn’t simply have at it.

Then she made no move, while thinking in her mind what pretext she could use to start eating the rice.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai smiled suddenly, then walked back into the kitchen, came out with a spoonful of fried rice.

“I know you’re still angry, and I admit I went too far this time. But the situation was dire and you weren’t around. I had to act on my own on the spur of the moment.”

As Jiang Xiaobai explained, he offered a spoonful of rice and said: “Here, let me feed you.”

This action left Ao Yan in a daze. She stared blankly at Jiang Xiaobai’s gentle face and his actions, momentarily losing herself.

However, she recovered quickly and snorted coldly: “I have hands. I don’t need you.”

“Okay okay.”

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled and then added, “Don’t worry, next time we go out, I’ll inform you and make sure to return as soon as possible. I won’t worry you.”

“Do you think you’re worth worrying about?”

Disgusted, Ao Yan snorted coldly, casually removing the spoon from Jiang Xiaobai’s hand and then put the rice in her mouth.

Watching this, Jiang Xiaobai looked at Ao Yan with anticipation, waiting to gauge the effects.

It has to be said that sometimes good food really does cheer people up a lot. Ao Yan took a bite of the fried rice and found it to have an exceptional taste, a rich medicinal power seemed to alleviate her internal injuries and toxicity. All of a sudden, Ao Yan looked at Jiang Xiaobai, with surprise flashing in her eyes.

As a princess in Dragon Valley, she had tasted many delicacies, but never before had she tasted a simple dish of fried rice that hid beneath it such astonishing power. It could be compared to a god-level pill, even possibly reaching fairy-level.

“How did you do it?” Ao Yan stared at Jiang Xiaobai, dumbfounded.

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, “It’s just frying rice, so how hard could it be? ”

“I’m asking how you did it, giving this medicinal power. This is not alchemy!” Ao Yan stopped him.

“You can’t do it,” Jiang Xiaobai stated sincerely.

Suddenly, Ao Yan’s face turned black and she seemed to be at a loss for words.

Seeing the expression on Ao Yan’s face, Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback.

He didn’t make a mistake. Ao Yan couldn’t do what he did. This was alchemy, and not just anyone could master it. He only knew it because of his built-in system.

“And now?” Jiang Xiaobai asked, wondering why Ao Yan was behaving like this.

Ao Yan chuckled coldly and didn’t say a word.

Such a simpleton!

“Forget it. From now on, you’ll make this fried rice for me every day,” Ao Yan said indifferently.

Jiang Xiaobai was elated, “Naturally, I can do that!”

Didn’t all the female leads in movies and dramas fall for the male lead because of this?

For a moment, Jiang Xiaobai seemed to know how to win Ao Yan over. This woman turned out to be a foodie!

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai so excited, Ao Yan couldn’t put her finger on it, but she suddenly felt a strange sensation. It was hard to describe, like a tightly shut window suddenly being pushed open.

For the next few days, Jiang Xiaobai lived a full life as a nanny. He arranged three meals a day for Ao Yan and the food was not limited to fried rice, he also cooked other dishes that he knew how to prepare.

The overall effect was extremely good. The day after she tried Jiang Xiaobai’s lunch, Ao Yan no longer behaved indifferently and even started to look forward to the meal on the third day.

After about four or five days, Jiang Xiaobai led a fulfilling life. He spent mornings cultivating in the Dragon Hall and chatting occasionally with Ao

Wan. Despite their minimal interaction, the two became increasingly close.

In the afternoons, he would help the Third Elder clean up the courtyard. Although he was hired to clean up the courtyard, most of his time was spent chatting with LingEr and Third Elder.

Despite his gradually improving position in the Dragon Valley, Jiang Xiaobai was always aware of the dangers he faced, not only from the Ancient Tribe but also from the malice within Dragon Valley, whether it be Ao Tianheng, Ao Xinran or someone who kept lurking in the shadows.

During the past few days, Jiang Xiaobai did not waste his time. Knowing that the Ancient Tribe would arrive soon, he kept thinking of possible strategies. At the same time, while he was out every day, he also searched around the Dragon Valley looking for anyone that might be plotting against him.

Ao Xinran and Ao Tianheng were naturally the main suspects.

As Qin Chen had the ability to vanquish all kinds of illusions and was more powerful than the two, he could watch their mansions without being noticed.

However, nothing abnormal happened during these days.

Ao Tianheng was always looking for opportunities to break through, cursing Qin Chen and Ao Cheng from time to time.

Ao Xinran was doing basically the same, but for the most part, she was seen sitting idly, sometimes smiling foolishly.

Jiang Xiaobai was unsure what was going on in her mind. Generally, she smiled absurdly from time to time.

Possibly, she might be longing for romance.

However, with little response from two highly suspected targets, Jiang Xiaobai simply couldn’t figure out what to do next..
