Chapter 8 Do You Really Want to Please Me?

Shen Peixing snorted and glanced at Jiang Cheng.

"Didn't you already know Xia Mingjian's background? Why did he have two daughters now?"

A trace of shock flashed through Jiang Cheng's eyes as he hurriedly said, "That's impossible."

It's impossible. Ever since he received Third Master's order, he had thoroughly investigated Xia Mingjian from the inside out.

He even knew how many lovers Xia Mingjian had, and he even unexpectedly got the diagnosis report suggesting that he could no longer give birth because of his intemperance in his early years.

If this indulgent idiot really had another daughter, how could he escape from Jiang Cheng's intelligence network?

Could it be that this guy actually had other plans?

Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. The alarm bells in his head rang loudly, fearing that his negligence would set the wolf to keep the sheep and bring trouble to Third Master.

Therefore, he immediately lowered his head and promised, "I'll go investigate now. There won't be any more problems this time."

After Jiang Cheng accepted the order and left, Shen Peixing was still sitting in front of the desk, holding a photo in his hand and slowly stroking it.

That was the so-called photo of his precious daughter that Xia Mingjian had asked someone to send to him after reaching the conditions. The girl in the photo was beautiful and lovely, and it was indeed Xia Xinnuan's face.

However, the obedient and gentle look on her face and even a little timid look in her eyes were very different from what Xia Xinnuan had shown him in the past two days.

The Xia Xinnuan in front of him could remain calm in the face of murder, and could even easily take down the "evil wolf" Blue, who had always been close to him. All of this could not be faked.

The more mysterious something was, the more it aroused people's curiosity. This also made Shen Peixing a little interested in this "gift" that he originally only intended to use to relieve boredom.

His eyes darkened. No matter if it were for a cat or a tiger, no one could play tricks on him.

Xia Xinnuan was pestered by Blue for more than an hour before she was able to get away. She returned to her room and took a comfortable bath, feeling refreshed.

After that, she carefully sorted out the situation after coming to this world and felt that it was time to pave the way for her future.

Who knew if she could still return to her original world? If she couldn't, then she had to get established in this place.

From the current situation, the original owner's situation was really not optimistic.

There was no one she could trust around her, and she was being controlled, so it was no wonder that she ended up dying for replacing others for a wedding.

But now...

Xia Xinnuan smiled slyly. Since the control of this body was already in her hands, then she naturally wouldn't be an ant to be trifled with. She always believed that the fate of one person was in one's own hands.

Naturally, she could not let go of Xia Mingjian, but at the moment, the most important thing was to first ride Shen Peixing's coattail.

He was Chongming City's most awesome big shot at the moment. There was no harm in currying favor with him, at least she could live at ease.

Xia Xinnuan couldn't help but laugh at her uncle's subservient behavior in front of Shen Peixing, which made her feel relieved for the original owner.

After making up her mind, Xia Xinnuan felt hungry. After changing her clothes, she prepared to go to the dining room to grab some food.

When she arrived at the dining room, she found that Shen Peixing had already sat down and was eating by himself, ignoring everyone around him.

Xia Xinnuan secretly rolled her eyes behind him and could not help but silently curse, "At least we live under the same roof. As the master, you even don't know to ask me for dinner."

If she had come a little later, there would probably only be cold soup and she would even starve.

If this was done by an ordinary person, it would mean that he had no manners at all. However, once it was matched with his handsome face, it seemed that no matter what he did, it would be extremely harmonious, making people unable to be angry.

Was this really the privilege of a handsome guy?

"I bring this on myself by loving handsome guys!" Xia Xinnuan sighed helplessly.

Hearing the sigh, Shen Peixing turned back to look at her. His eyes were calm, and he did not look embarrassed at all.

It seemed that she had to rely on herself!

Therefore, Xia Xinnuan immediately put on a fake smile and walked over to greet Shen Peixing.

"Good evening, Third Master."

Watching her sit down quietly while greeting, Shen Peixing raised his eyebrows and hummed in response.

Then, Xia Xinnuan asked politely, "Third Master, may I have a meal with you?"

Knowing that she was obviously acting polite and gentle, Shen Peixing did not expose her and only faintly responded, "Up to you." Then, he lowered his head to eat.

After getting the approval, Xia Xinnuan was no longer polite. She quickly concentrated on enjoying the delicious food. After all, she had been struggling for half a day. She was very hungry. How could she have the strength to ride Shen Peixing's coattail if she did not eat her fill?

What's more, the food here was so delicious that it was irresistible.

That's right. This was also the most pleasant surprise she had found in the two days she had been in this world. She truly felt that the things here were much more delicious than what they had in their world.

In their world, everything was cultivated through science and technology. The nutritional value was high, but it lacked natural delicacies.

The food was just like a robot that had undergone strict training, capable of doing everything with precision but dull.

Shen Peixing looked at Xia Xinnuan, who was eating peacefully and didn't feel any pressure with him besides. He couldn't help but look at her with a playful look.

After eating and drinking her fill, Xia Xinnuan remembered her current primary task.

She immediately put on a very sincere look and said, "Third Master, this dinner is delicious, but there are many meat dishes. It is inevitable that it is a little greasy. Do you want me to make some fruit and dessert for you to balance it?"

"Oh? You know how to do it?" Shen Peixing slowly leaned his back against the seat, his hands crossed as he looked at her with a probing gaze.

Xia Xinnuan could naturally see his suspicion and immediately proved, "My cooking skills are average. But I can make dessert quite well. Third Master, why don't you let me try?"

"Are you... trying to please me?"

The corners of Xia Xinnuan's mouth twitched slightly, and she felt a little embarrassed.

This man really doesn't know how to be romantic. She was kind enough to make him a dessert. Even if he knew her purpose, there was no need to point it out in public!

Better leave others a route of retreat. Did he know that? Obviously, this stupid man didn't.

However, Xia Xinnuan knew that she was also not an easy person to deal with. Want to see who's more thick-skinned? Since that was the case, then do it. Let's hurt each other!

Wasn't it just acting? In this field, Xia Xinnuan had never been afraid of anyone.

"Third Master is right. Nothing can escape your eyes. A weak woman like me came here alone. I am not familiar with this place. I have to rely on Third Master to survive."

Xia Xinnuan put on a show and became more and more emotional, "Who doesn't know that Third Master is an existence who can cover the sky with one hand in Chongming City? I'm afraid that if I accidentally make you angry, I will be fed to Blue. So, I have to please you and make you happy. Only in this way I can be better, right?"

This time, it was Shen Peixing's turn to twitch the corner of his· mouth. This woman was really not simple. She was so eloquent.

She could even say that he would feed her to Blue. Could it be that in her eyes, he was so bloodthirsty?

Besides, she had only been here for two days, and Blue, the boneless wolf, had already been obsessed with by her. How could it be willing to eat her?

However, Shen Peixing was naturally not that easy to be tricked. No matter how much he was stunned, he looked still as calm as ever.

"If you really want to please me, you have to hurry up. I don't have much time and patience."

"Don't worry, Third Master. I won't let you wait too long."

Xia Xinnuan followed the servant to the kitchen and found that there were all kinds of ingredients in the refrigerator. It was very complete and fresh, giving her the greatest room to cook.

Considering the time, she only made a green apple pudding, which was the most suitable for relieving the greasy after the meal.

When she brought the good-looking pudding in front of Shen Peixing, the man's expression, which was like an iceberg all year round, eased a little.

Xia Xinnuan obediently stood by the side, watching Shen Peixing silently finish the whole pudding.

"Is Third Master satisfied?"

Shen Peixing, who was never used to praising people, saw her eager expression and coughed a little unnaturally, "Okay."

Xia Xinnuan silently cursed while acting even more modest, "If Third Master thinks it's okay, then I will be responsible for your future dessert."

Shen Peixing raised his eyebrows, but before he could say anything, he heard Xia Xinnuan's urgent reply, not giving him any room to refuse. "Third Master, please give me this chance to please you!"

Xia Xinnuan naturally had her own plans for taking on this job. Whether it was from the original owner's memories or her observations over the past two days, it could be seen that Shen Peixing was a cold-faced and temperamental person.

Although she was now "sent" to him and seemed to be his person, it was hard to say when he would turn against her and drive her out or make a move on her.

She thought that if she had a skill that could make Shen Peixing look at her differently or make Shen Peixing like her cooking skills, then even if one day he got tired of her and wanted to drive her away, he would not treat her unfairly.

No matter how Shen Peixing looked at her, she still pretended to be very sincere. He was happy to see it happen because he wanted to see how long she can pretend and how long she can hold on.

"Since you like to serve people so much, I don't seem to have any reason to stop you."

"No, Third Master, you misunderstood," Xia Xinnuan smiled, "I don't like to serve people. I just like to serve you, Third Master."

Shen Peixing's eyebrows twitched. Even though he knew that she was acting, he was still teased.

His eyes darkened, and without warning, he reached out and pulled Xia Xinnuan, who was standing beside him, into his arms.

"Oh? Is that so? Since you really like to serve me, why do you have to go through so much trouble? Why don't you perform well tonight and let me see your abilities? Let's see if you can really please me."
