Chapter 276: Chapter 276 Female Devil_1

Tsk, what’s up with this crazy woman now!

No, that’s not right, Empress can’t just be described as a crazy woman anymore.

Compared to the Empress, Xian Qianling is nothing but a tame kitten!

Without waiting for you to turn around, the Empress walks up to you, glances at you from the side, and says with an incredibly arrogant tone, "I shall accompany you."

"What the heck?"

Seeing your surprised face, the Empress appears quite calm and urges with an entitled tone, "I’m hungry, go prepare the meal."

"I..."

"Hmm?" The Empress frowns sternly!

Alright, I’ll just swallow my pride!

A good man doesn’t argue with a woman!

She is the Empress, a soul reborn through Zhao’er’s body, and now she has the terrifying power of half mortal, half demigod, so bowing to her should not be a disgrace.

Yes, that’s right.

You didn’t take Zhao’er back to Ladies’ Home, instead you drove her, uh, obviously including the Empress, back to your own home.

On the way home, you stopped by the market. When you returned to the car lugging bags big and small, the Empress sitting inside, who was already rather impatient, couldn’t help but complain, "Why so slow?"

You roll your eyes and decide to ignore her, as if she doesn’t exist.

However, as you’re putting everything into the trunk and just about to start the car, Zhao’er says something that nearly makes you mistake the gas pedal for the brake!

"You need to be gentler."

"Hmph! I have always been thus, unchanged for thousands of years."

Zhao’er is sitting in the passenger seat, and as you turn to look her way, she shows a smile as gentle as the breeze in June.

You can’t help but give a wry smile, truly not understanding how Zhao’er can talk to this female devil, and it seems they sort of keep each other in check - huh? Right, female devil, from now on I’ll refer to her as that!

After the car starts, your phone rings.

Using the car’s Bluetooth function, you pick up the headset and place it to your ear, pressing the call button, "Hello?"

"Have you gotten home?" The voice of the crazy woman comes through the headset, and you have to admit the sound quality is excellent, even surround sound; it’s just that what’s currently surrounding your ear is the voice of the crazy woman, which makes you feel somewhat helpless.

"Uh-huh, what’s up?"

"There’s something I want to talk to you about, and at the same time, I hope you can stay calm and not be impulsive."

With Captain Xian putting it that way, your previously nonchalant expression instantly turns cold, "What happened?"

"Qian Zihao has already been picked up, and at the same time, the real culprits behind this incident, the two bodyguards who stabbed Wei Shuxian have also been taken away by related personnel."

And then?" You can’t help but feel confused. If that’s all, there’s really no need to get angry or impulsive, is there?

"Ah? and then, oh, I must tell you about this. Since Wei Shuxian, Liao Yong, and Xiao Feng were injured, the Cen Family of Yenjing immediately applied pressure through their network of relationships, preventing us from arresting the criminals in a timely manner, this matter..."

The road home is somewhat congested. As you drive, you listen to Captain Xian rambling and start to feel annoyed, "Captain Xian, can you just get to the point?"

"The point?" Captain Xian is also confused, believing that according to her understanding of you, by this time you should be raging with anger, especially because the criminals you worked so hard to catch were let go, and through the channels of the system at that.

"Didn’t you tell me to stay calm? After all this, I still haven’t heard anything that would make me angry, have I?"

"I... I already said it earlier, didn’t I? Qian Zihao and his two bodyguards..."

"Oh, those three? Their lives and deaths have nothing to do with me anymore," you replied nonchalantly.

"But this time, Qian Zihao has suffered quite a big blow to his psyche, I’m afraid the Qian Family might take it out on you."

From Xian Qianling’s words, you sensed concern and felt a warmth in your heart. Smiling, you said, "Even if the Qian Family despises me to the bone, they don’t have the spare time to bother with me. Alright, I have to keep driving; let’s stop here."

Speaking thus, you hung up the phone without another word.

"That charming policewoman seems to care a lot about you, huh?"

Empress, sitting in the back seat with arms crossed and resting her captivating legs, commented in a cool tone.

Without turning your head back, you retorted, "People who care about me are a dime a dozen; one more makes no difference."

"Humph, still can’t change your flirtatious ways!"

Empress scoffed coldly.

"Hey, I happen to be very faithful, alright?" you protested.

"Really?" Empress sneered coldly. "How about that little Wu Family girl, her personal maid, and this charming policewoman? How do you explain them?"

"I..."

Damn, you never expected Empress could actually leave you speechless.

You turned to look at Zhao’er, relieved to see that Empress’s words hadn’t touched her in the slightest.

"That’s my business; what does it have to do with you?"

You replied coldly and, noticing an empty stretch ahead in the lane, you floored the accelerator. The car roared faster, forcing Empress to lean back heavily against the soft seat due to the sudden burst of speed.

"You..."

Empress’s temper flared immediately. She harshly raised her hand, ready to strike at you, but her movement halted midway as she just snorted coldly and turned her head to view the passing scenery outside the window.

"Eekyaa—"

When you opened the door and realized your mother wasn’t there, a sense of loss couldn’t help but fill your heart.

You turned to Zhao’er, smiling and said, "Zhao’er, you just sit and watch TV for a bit; the meal will be ready shortly."

Having taken a few steps with your things, you turned to Empress and added, "Guests are to be esteemed; take a moment to relax with Zhao’er, and I’ll brew tea in no time."

"No need, you go ahead. I’ve already had my fill of tea this afternoon," Empress replied.

"Alright then." You nodded and headed into the kitchen, getting busy right away.

Observing you bustling about in the kitchen, both Zhao’er and Empress inadvertently showed warm smiles.

At that moment, it seemed they both realized something and turned to glance at each other; Zhao’er’s smile was full and bright, while Empress looked up at the ceiling, using her action to hide the emotions stirring within her.

After a little more than half an hour, you came out of the kitchen holding a bowl of steaming Xishi Tofu, and to the two stunning beauties engrossed in the Animal World program, you announced, "Meals ready, come and eat."

Zhao’er immediately stood up, walked over to you with a smile, and to your surprise, she took the initiative to give you a soft peck on the cheek right in front of Empress, her laughter as sweet as a bell’s chime: "This is your reward."

Hehe...(￣︶￣)

Seeing your smug face, Empress, who had already sat down and had unceremoniously scooped a spoonful of Xishi Tofu into her mouth, threw a bucket of cold water on you: "Not particularly good-looking, and of rather low quality, yet unexpectedly, your culinary skills are unmatched. Hmm, not bad, you do have some redeeming qualities."

You rolled your eyes!
