Chapter 571: Chapter 567 This is Love

Meanwhile, down on the beach, Tie Niu and Fu Tu stood in front of Bai Zhiqing, their faces full of guilt. They had been too confident, they thought. If only they had left one person to protect Bai Zhiqing during their training of the Unrivaled Guards, perhaps she wouldn’t have been kidnapped today. If Bai Zhiqing had been harmed, they feared they would never forgive themselves.

"Sis-in-law, we’re sorry. It’s all my and Tie Niu’s fault. If it wasn’t for us having to leave, you wouldn’t have been kidnapped. If it’s upsetting you, feel free to give us a good beating to vent your anger!"

"Sis-in-law, Fu Tu is right. Go ahead and hit us to let off some steam! We’re tough; it won’t matter to us."

Bai Zhiqing stood on the beach, looking down at Tie Niu and Fu Tu as they humbly apologized, gently shaking her head, "This isn’t your fault. Don’t be too hard on yourselves. I was the one who was too careless and trusted others too much. Don’t worry about it, and besides, I’m alright now, aren’t I?"

"Sis-in-law, you really don’t blame us?" Tie Niu asked cautiously.

Bai Zhiqing smiled and said, "Of course. Why should I blame you? I should be thanking you for protecting me!"

"Heh heh, I knew it, sis-in-law. You are broad-minded and certainly wouldn’t trivialize things with us."

Tie Niu, sucking up to Bai Zhiqing, grinned and said, "Sis-in-law, today you’ve generously forgiven me and Fu Tu. From now on, I guarantee no one will dare to mess with you. Starting today, I’m your most loyal minion. If you tell me to go east, I won’t go west. If you tell me to chase a dog, I won’t catch a chicken, right, Fu Tu?"

"Absolutely. If anyone dares to bully sis-in-law, we’ll beat them up straight away," Fu Tu nodded firmly.

"What if your boss bullies me? Would you beat him up for me?" Bai Zhiqing said with a mischievous smile.

Lu Tianxing, hearing this, suddenly wore a stern look, his gaze warning Tie Niu. Last time, Tie Niu had almost gotten him killed; if he dared to speak nonsense this time, he would teach Tie Niu the meaning of cruelty.

"Uh!"

At Bai Zhiqing’s words, Tie Niu and Fu Tu stiffened. Beating up Lu Tianxing, what a joke! Before Lu Tian had broken through to the mythic level, they barely managed to suppress him together, and even then, they might still end up being suppressed by him.

Now that Lu Tianxing had reached the mythic level, fighting him would be like child’s play, completely futile. To beat Lu Tianxing— they’d be lucky if they weren’t beaten up themselves.

"Um... Sis-in-law, can we negotiate another deal? We can’t beat the boss. How about we help by keeping an eye on him? We could monitor how often he goes to the toilet, what he does outside and then report it all to you," Tie Niu said with an awkward laugh.

At that moment, Lu Tianxing really wanted to smack Tie Niu, but glancing at Bai Zhiqing, he decided against it. If he needed to discipline, it had to be done without letting Bai Zhiqing know; secretly dealing with Tie Niu was the best approach.

"That sounds like a good idea. What do you think, Tianxing?" Bai Zhiqing said, smiling sweetly at Lu Tianxing.

"Great, very great,"

Lu Tianxing forced a few words through his clenched teeth.

Bai Zhiqing, linking arms with Lu Tianxing, smiled and said, "Alright, it’s getting late. Don’t tell me you guys want to enjoy the sea breeze all night. Tie Niu, Fu Tu, have you two had dinner? Do you want to come home with me and have some supper?"

"Heh heh, no need, sis-in-law. We won’t intrude on your alone time with the boss. We’ll pass,"

Tie Niu chuckled, looking enviously at Lu Tianxing and said, "Boss, you must cherish the sis-in-law in the future. A wife who can grace a hall and conquer the kitchen isn’t common. You’d better treasure her, or if someone else sweeps her off her feet, don’t you cry."

When Lu Tianxing heard this, he could only laugh and say, "Yes, I will cherish her, especially since a wife who can cook isn’t common."

Lu Tianxing deliberately emphasized the words "can cook."

"That’s good then, sis-in-law, we’ll take our leave first."

Tie Niu and Fu Tu nodded to Lu Tianxing and, with a flash, disappeared on the spot, fully aware now of their own shortcomings and eager to advance their current power levels.

Seeing Tie Niu and Fu Tu leave, Bai Zhiqing’s face suddenly turned cold. "Lu Tianxing, from the tone of your voice just now, it sounded like you were really dissatisfied with my ability to cook."

As she spoke, Bai Zhiqing pinched Lu Tianxing hard on his body.

"Uh, well, darling, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"What’s the lie?"

"The lie is that, darling, your cooking is absolutely delicious, a true delicacy, not becoming a chef is the culinary world’s greatest loss. If someone hasn’t tasted your cooking, their life is simply incomplete,"

"And the truth?"

"The truth is, sweetheart, you’re the new age assassin of the kitchen. While others’ cooking might just taste bad, yours is literally lethal, and lethally invisible. The first time I saw someone cooking while consulting a recipe on their phone was you. More importantly, when the recipe called for a pinch of salt, you, my dear, grabbed a soup spoon and declared, ’This is a pinch,’ resulting in a life-threatening dish."

Lu Tianxing shuddered as he spoke, having endured Bai Zhiqing’s dark cuisine. That day, for some unknown reason, she insisted on showcasing her culinary skills and entered the kitchen. He saw her wielding a frying spatula in one hand while consulting a recipe on her phone with the other. He watched as she compared a small to a large soup spoon to judge how much a pinch was, ultimately selecting a large spoon and filling it with salt to dump into the pot. Had he not seen it, he suspected his tombstone would be standing hillside by now.

Lethal indeed!

Since then, he had completely revoked Bai Zhiqing’s cooking privileges. He preferred doing it himself rather than letting her into the kitchen again. Life is too short to risk for a beautiful woman’s home-cooked meal.

"Lu Tianxing, what do you mean by that? Are you saying my cooking is awful?" Bai Zhiqing’s fists clench tightly as anger begins to flicker in her beautiful eyes.

"Wife, this time do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Speak for your big head, ghost! Lu Tianxing, today I am going to kill you!"

Saying this, Bai Zhiqing lunged at Lu Tianxing with gnashing teeth and flailing arms.

"Wife, you made a mistake again. ’Miss’ is used for unmarried girls; you’re married now, you can only be called ’Lady’."

Lu Tianxing hurriedly dodged and relentlessly taunted, his face wreathed with a warm smile.

"Less of your big head, ghost! You’re dead meat today, I’m going to make you pay," she threatened.

Bai Zhiqing, furious, pounced towards Lu Tianxing, thinking just how much he deserved a beating for not being able to say anything nice.

On the beach, one ran ahead while the other chased relentlessly behind, forgetting everything, forgetting their identities, just two people deep in love.

Their feelings for each other were heating up fast.

Although Bai Zhiqing was chasing Lu Tianxing angrily, a faint smile played around her lips, making her feel less like a company CEO and more like a woman truly in love.

"Ouch!"

Suddenly, Bai Zhiqing cried out in pain, crouching down, holding her foot, her complexion turning pale.

Seeing this, Lu Tianxing paused momentarily then hurried toward Bai Zhiqing: "Wife, what’s wrong? Did you twist your ankle? Don’t move, let me have a look."

With a sly smirk on her lips, Bai Zhiqing saw Lu Tianxing crouch down, and immediately clutched his arm, pinching his waist hard: "Haha, you fell for it, see if you run now."

"Wife, that’s sneaky!"

Lu Tianxing cried out, his face filled with mock sorrow: "Wife, how could you do this? What happened to the basic trust between people! The way you play, you’re not going to have any friends."

"Hmph, I play like this just so you stop badmouthing me. So tell me, will you stop or not?"

"Can you let go of me first?" Lu Tianxing pleaded.

"No way, you have to tell me first, otherwise, I’ll strangle you." Bai Zhiqing pouted, like a coquettish little girl.

"Wife, don’t push me," Lu Tianxing said darkly.

"What are you going to do about it, beat me up?"

"I dare not beat you, but I think I can teach you a lesson, and that lesson is..."

Lu Tianxing didn’t finish, but flashed a mischievous smile at Bai Zhiqing. Before she could react, he wrapped one arm around her slender waist and with the other, gently lifted her chin and lowered his head to kiss her red lips.

Bai Zhiqing shivered, her eyes wide as she stared at Lu Tianxing close at hand, her body trembling slightly. Soon, she also slowly closed her eyes, awkwardly responding to Lu Tianxing.

The sound of the rolling waves, the horn of a passing fishing boat, and the whistling sea breeze witnessed the love of this couple.

This kiss seemed eternally imprinted in their memories.

Not until Bai Zhiqing was almost out of breath did Lu Tianxing let her go. Looking at her flush-faced, Lu Tianxing gently embraced her and said tenderly, "Wife, let’s go home."

"Yeah."

Bai Zhiqing nodded slightly and said, "But, I want you to carry me home."

"Ah!"

"What, you don’t want to? Or do you think I’m heavy?"

"I’d love to, love to."

Lu Tianxing bent down and picked up Bai Zhiqing, walking slowly towards the distance.

Bai Zhiqing, lying on Lu Tianxing’s back, traced a charming smile with her lips. No wonder women love being in love; it feels amazing, sweet like honey in her heart. As long as Lu Tianxing was there, no storm could hurt her; he would shield her from everything.

This is love.
