Chapter 16

After Li Zhi came into contact with other females in the empire in the afternoon, he always felt an inexplicable sense of guilt and pressure in his heart.

Since she came into this world, she has been enjoying the privileges of being a female, but she cannot help so many males and do meaningful things like other females.
So what can she do without pheromones?

She accompanied Su Jing to the supermarket and watched him buy all kinds of food. When he almost emptied half of the food section, her brain kept thinking. She kept thinking about going home, but she still hadn't figured it out.

It wasn't until she saw Su Jing spend an hour, waste an outrageous amount of ingredients, and almost blow up the kitchen for the Nth time that she knew.
Li Zhi walked into the kitchen and stood beside Su Jing, who was staring at the black pot and messy countertop on the stove. She sighed helplessly, "Let me do it. I can cook."

Su Jing refused without a second thought: "No, I am a male, how can I let a little female cook?"

It is a great shame to let females cook for males! If a male cannot take care of females, what kind of male is he!
In order to prove himself once again, he broke a bowl, crushed two eggs, and scrambled a pot of vegetables in the blink of an eye, and almost set the oil pan on fire.

Li Zhi took a breath, his scalp tingling, and his voice trembled slightly: "Su Jing, you better go out, I'll do it, please."

Su Jing's dream of becoming a chef was completely shattered. His eyes rarely flashed with frustration. The blush around his peach blossom eyes deepened, and the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye was particularly eye-catching. He asked dejectedly, "Xiao Lizhi, is my brother really useless?"

He looked at the ingredients and cooking utensils on the stove, wondering why something that was so skillful, smooth and easy in Jiang Yue's hands became a living disaster scene in his hands.

"How could that be?" Li Zhi consoled him softly, "Everyone has different skills. Not everyone can cook."

"Although you can't cook, you are the director of the Empire's top research institute and a great doctor! Your outstanding talents can be used in more powerful places!"

"Really?" Su Jing immediately pricked up his ears, and the invisible big tail behind him was already wagging happily, but his expression remained depressed, and he looked at her aggrievedly: "You really don't think I'm useless?"

There are no males in the empire who don't care for females. If you can't hold the stomach of a female, you're doomed.
Li Zhi immediately shook his head, his eyes full of seriousness and sincerity, and praised in a strong tone: "How is it possible? You are the best and most powerful Su Jing! You have been trying to find a way to help me restore my pheromones!"

She paused, and tried to soften her tone to avoid touching Su Jing's fragile self-esteem: "But let me do the cooking~"

"Okay then." Su Jing was successfully comforted by her sweet words and instantly regained his masculine confidence, but he was still a little hesitant.

"Are you really okay with this, Xiaoli Zhi? Otherwise, I'll call a housekeeping robot, or order takeout, which is also fast!"

Li Zhi put on her apron neatly and without hesitation, picked up the knife, the blade flashed a bright cold light, and she raised her face to smile.

"No, I'm good at cooking, try it~"

Su Jing thought that he could be the first and currently the only male to eat the meal cooked by Li Zhi.
He couldn't resist the temptation and agreed, becoming the first male in the empire to live off a female. If the news got out, he would be despised by the whole country.

But he was still worried, so he leaned against the stove with his arms folded, standing by and paying close attention to Li Zhi's every move, muttering to himself and shouting loudly.

"The kitchen knife is very sharp, don't cut yourself, or I'll do it."

"No need~"

"Hey, be careful, Xiaoli Zhi, keep your hands away from me."

"Okay."

"The oil in the pan is very hot. I noticed that the food splashed when I put it in. Please stay away from it when you put the food in."

"Uh-huh."

"This dish can't be fried for too long, that's what I did just now."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Li Zhi suddenly stop all movements of his hands, lowered his head and remained silent.

Su Jing was shocked and nervously wanted to pull her over to check: "What's wrong? Did you get burned?!" Li Zhi raised her face, frowning and pushing the culprit out of the kitchen: "You go out first, I'll call you when I'm done."

Su Jing was puzzled: "Will I affect you?"

Li Zhi forced a smile and nodded perfunctorily: "Yes, you are too handsome, I will be distracted."

Su Jing immediately accepted this reason, lifted his hair, and said helplessly: "Well, call me anytime if you need anything, Xiaoli Zhi."

"Yeah, yeah." Li Zhi smiled and nodded perfunctorily again, pushed him all the way to the sofa, and pressed him down hard: "Just watch TV, don't worry."

"Good~"

Su Jing was completely frustrated and quickly lay down lazily on the sofa, but his eyes were still far away on the kitchen, paying attention to the movements inside.

Until Li Zhi brought out a sumptuous and classic Chinese three dishes and one soup, which were placed on the table and looked delicious.

White rice, stir-fried meat with green peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried vegetables with garlic, and seaweed egg drop soup.

Su Jing was surprised and asked, "What kind of dish is this? I have never seen it before."

"This is a dish from my hometown~" Li Zhi handed him the chopsticks with a smile: "Do you like it?"

Before Su Jing could think carefully about how there could be such food on her primitive planet, her body reacted by picking up the food, taking a bite, and immediately gave a thumbs up and praised it highly.

"It's so delicious! You're amazing, Oguri!"

Li Zhi pursed her lips and smiled, and the two of them finally managed to have dinner two hours after returning home.

Not only did Su Jing clear out all the dishes by himself, he also took a photo and sent it to Jiang Yue to show off.

[Look, what Oguri Zhi made tastes better than what you made. Don’t be jealous~]

He no longer cares about being scolded or anything like that, after all, he is the first happy male to eat the meal made by Oguri Zhi!
There was no reply from Jiang Yue.

Su Jing didn't care at all and in a very good mood asked the housekeeping robot to clean the table.
-
The next day, Princess Lina had another free day without having to appease the males.

It was a rare opportunity for her to have some free time, so she left behind all the annoying males and lovely female sisters early in the morning and went excitedly to find Li Zhi, who had become her new favorite.

"Who is it?" Li Zhi, who had woken up early, heard the knock on the door and ran to open it. When he saw it was the princess, his eyes widened immediately: "Your Highness?"

"Hi." Princess Lina gave her a warm hug and said, "Baby Li Zhi, I'm here to play with you."

As she walked through the door, she couldn't help but sniff and smelled the fragrant aroma of food.

"What's that smell? It smells so good! Is your male so good at cooking?"

Li Zhi slapped his head immediately: "Oh, right! I haven't turned off the fire yet!"

She immediately turned around and rushed to the kitchen.

Lina followed slowly to the kitchen, then opened her beautiful eyes wide and her pupils trembled.

Because she actually saw Li Zhi cooking!
