Tangling with the Western Commander-Chapter 523 - 520: Is the Meat Delicious?

She glanced at him, quickly withdrew her gaze, and muttered softly, "Shameless."

To think he dared to tease her in broad daylight!

Captain Lu was getting worse and worse.

She turned away, refusing to look at him.

Lu Xiao then hummed lightly from behind her, and said, "I didn’t say anything, how am I shameless?"

Wen Xian stomped her foot, "You are, playing dumb!"

What’s all this talk about eating meat, with only a few days a month not eating, what did he mean by that!

Usually, it was she who teased and flirted with him, but being caught off-guard like this made Wen Xian feel embarrassingly hot all over.

Lu Xiao’s gaze was still forward, but he pulled Wen Xian into his arms, her slender back crashing against his sturdy chest.

Only then did Lu Xiao lower his head, whispering huskily beside her ear:

"Since that’s the case, did it taste good?"

Did it taste good...

Upon hearing that, Wen Xian’s face almost started smoking with embarrassment.

Her delicate fingers clenched slightly.

At that moment, it was her turn; the vendor directly asked, "Which one would you like, miss?"

In her hurry, Wen Xian replied without thinking, "Tasty."

The vendor was confused, Wen Xian realized her blunder and quickly said, "The meat, I mean the meat is tasty, I’ll take that."

After she finished speaking to the vendor, she could hear Lu Xiao’s chuckling behind her.

The sound was pleasant, but it made Wen Xian wish she could shrink into her clothes.

Ah!

Lu Xiao, you big jerk!

Completely embarrassed, Lu Xiao still sported a faint smile on his lips as he drew her into his embrace, then told the vendor:

"Two of the same flavor, thank you."

With that, he took out his wallet to pay.

His newlywed wife was very adorable.

Lu Xiao could never have dreamed that his future would involve meeting a woman like this, who completely changed him and also his life.

Because of her, his life from here on out became rich and colorful, with all the gentlest and most beautiful things in the world coming along with her.

Neither of them was perfect; there are no perfect people in this world.

But when they met, saw each other, and recognized each other, together they became perfect.

She could accept her own physical imperfections, appreciate the life-consuming work he did, and he could...

No, in his eyes, she had no flaws.

Even if there were any, they were merits.

No matter what kind of person she was, in his eyes, she was always the best.

By now, he had unknowingly fallen deeply in love with her.

Wen Xian took the cooked naan, couldn’t wait to eat it, held it through the bag, feeling its scorching heat, and quickly blew on it.

The aroma of the baked naan was tempting, beckoning one to take big bites.

Just then, Wen Xian finished blowing on the naan and directly offered it to his mouth, naturally saying,

"All blown cool, you try a bite first."

Lu Xiao: "..."

He just looked at her, and deep inside he felt a warm current spread from his heart, reaching every limb; in this cold winter day, he felt all warmth.

He knew more clearly than anyone else, this wasn’t just about a pastry.

It was about her putting him at the top of her heart, always, the first person she thought of was him.

He understood her nature, so—
