Days and nights of pursuit of Dottore

In front of the person you like, you have to play to your strengths, avoid your weaknesses, and cater to their preferences. Cheng Yan is very skilled in this. As for what he is good at... apart from mechanical engineering, there is only cooking. In front of smart people, especially smart people like Lord Emperor and Zazan, he still has to use his brain less.

After all, it seems that intelligence cannot be faked. Apart from cooking, Cheng Yan can't think of any other advantages of his own.

When he first met Lord Emperor, it was only thanks to his superb cooking skills that Lord Emperor did not resist his touch.

When Cheng Yan wants to win someone's favor with all his heart, he can be so devoted that he even loses himself.

His mind and eyes were filled with Zandik's preferences and tastes. He still didn't know what Zandik's favorite flavors and dishes were, but this didn't pose a problem for Cheng Yan. If he didn't know, he would just cook them all and look at Zandik's reactions after eating each dish, and then he could guess Zandik's preferences.

Cheng Yan was ready to fight, determined to use all his strength to prepare a full banquet for Zandik! He didn't believe he couldn't defeat him!

The cooking of delicious food starts with the raw materials. Everything that swims in the water or flies in the sky cannot escape the chopping knife.

Holding a pheasant by the wings, Cheng Yan excitedly boiled water in the wild.

He took out the huge food box from the storage bracelet. Cheng Yan once again sighed at the thoughtfulness of his master and Aunt Liu Yun. If it weren't for this bracelet and the things inside it, Cheng Yan could be said to be penniless.

Exquisite dishes were placed in food boxes, and the scene was so grand that it seemed as if the imperial kitchen was serving meals to the emperor.

Xiaojiu, who had been dormant for a long time, was awakened by Cheng Yan. As soon as he regained consciousness, he jumped towards Cheng Yan.

Master...Xiaojiu, I miss you!

Cheng Yan opened his arms and held the small robot in his arms, gently patting its smooth back.

"Xiaojiu, do you miss me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the little guy in his arms started jumping up and down, extremely excited.

Cheng Yan suppressed the smile on his lips, touched Xiaojiu's head and spoke.

"Help the master get something for you, it belongs to another master."

Xiaojiu nodded hurriedly and followed Cheng Yan closely. His short and thin arms were holding up a food box that was more than ten times bigger than himself, but his steps were light and effortless.

Cheng Yan walked towards Zandik's room with a bright look in her eyes, already imagining Zandik's astonished look when he tasted her cooking.

While Cheng Yan was delivering the carefully prepared dishes to Zandik, he had no idea that on the other side, the people of Liyue were already fighting over the jam that Cheng Yan had sent back.

Sharp and cold ice spikes scratched Ruo Tuo's cheek. Gan Yu said with a serious face, "You secretly took the letter that Brother Cheng Yan wrote to Senior Gui Zhong! I declare! For the next month, you will be deprived of the right to eat jam for breakfast!"

"One month? No way! Cheng Yan only sent this much, you guys will finish it all in one month!"

Ganyu quietly lowered her head and glanced at the bottles and jars in her arms.

It won't take a month at all. She can eat all of them tonight. But she still has to take care of the Emperor in the morning, so there is not enough to go around, and now this big guy has to join in!

"You did something wrong first, at worst... at worst I'll leave you a can."

The last time Cheng Yan’s brother made jam, it was finished a few days ago. Now that there is finally a new one, Gan Yu feels extremely distressed even if she only gives away a little.

"Can't you deliver food for both me and Morax in the morning?"

Ruota put his hands on his hips and looked at Ganyu who was protecting her food. He thought about what sin he had committed. Not only did he have to take the blame for Morax, but now he was even deprived of his only right to eat jam in the morning.

"Humph, the Emperor is the Emperor. He would never sneak into someone's cave and steal their letter. He will definitely be angry if he hears this."

"You..." Ruota almost couldn't help but tell the truth. Looking at Ganyu's wide eyes, he knew that the girl in front of him was also stubborn.

Ruo Tuo coughed lightly and said, "I have apologized to Chen Shen for that matter, and she has forgiven me. I also want to understand Cheng Yan. Don't you want to read those letters?"

"I... Brother Cheng Yan also wrote me a letter!"

Gan Yu raised her voice, but she was not very confident in her heart. It seemed that her brother Cheng Yan had sent many letters to Senior Gui Zhong, but only one letter to herself. Gan Yu stomped her feet in her heart. When she saw Cheng Yan, she would severely reprimand him for his behavior and lock him up to cook delicious food for her for three days and three nights!

Ganyu and Ruotu were bickering like children. Jin Peng, who had received the second batch of letters from Cheng Yan, had already slipped back to the big tree with lush branches and leaves.

The exquisite wooden box was opened, and what came into view was a Q-print of Cheng Yan making a face, with large characters written next to it, "This is the letter to my baby Jin Peng!"

Jin Peng murmured as he stroked a corner of the painting with his fingertips, unable to suppress the corners of his lips.

"Such a joke... do you know I will take it seriously? How can you just send a letter? You have to explain it to me in person."

Feeling entangled with longing for the young man whom he had not seen for a long time, Jin Peng took the painting and prepared to read the contents of the letter carefully.

It was a thick stack, and finally he didn't have to envy Gui Zhong anymore. The beginning of the letter was very plain, only writing about the peculiarities of the plants Cheng Yan saw in Xumi, but Jin Peng read it with great interest, as if he could see through the handwriting what Cheng Yan had experienced personally at that time.

"I met students from the Teaching Academy and drank a kind of medicine with them. Their expressions were so painful, but I felt okay. I remembered the taste of the dishes made by Master. I often miss Master and you in Xumi. Unfortunately, I can't appear in front of you immediately. I can only use paintings to express my longing for you..."

Jin Peng felt sweet inside when he read the affectionate words. Without thinking about the hidden message in the words, Jin Peng flipped through the pages without noticing anything.

"!!!"

A shocking portrait suddenly appeared in Jin Peng's eyes. His nose immediately started to itch. By the time he reacted, drops of blood had already dripped onto the tree trunk beneath him.

Jin Peng hurriedly raised his hand to wipe it, afraid of dirtying the letter, so he carefully put the letter away before starting to clean the blood on his body.

The alluring figure he had just seen appeared in his mind again, even more alluring than the scene in his dream.

Jin Peng covered his nose and opened the wooden box again with trembling fingers. A portrait with a collision of black, white and red colors appeared. The black background, the glowing white skin, and the red ropes wrapped around the snow-white body made it look like a fairy in the painting trying to lure people into the painting.

His throat couldn't help but become dry, and Jin Peng picked up the painting carefully with trembling hands.

The red string only tightened her thin waist and outlined the muscle lines of her abdomen, not to mention the two points on her chest...

Jin Peng's nose became wet and warm again. He noticed it and covered it with his hands. He put the painting into the wooden box with trembling hands. Jin Peng had to find a place to tidy himself up first.

How could he still feel angry about Cheng Yan's different treatment? This painting alone was enough for Jin Peng to appreciate and savor for more than three months.

Exhaling lightly, Jin Peng jumped down from the tree, carrying the wooden box with him, and came to a pond, closing his eyes to hide the lust in them.

The dryness in his chest lingered for a long time. He had long stopped being angry with Cheng Yan, but now the stuffy feeling appeared again.

He sent me a painting like this, but he didn't appear in front of me in person.

The golden eyes flashed, and Jin Peng thought that he still had to punish Cheng Yan. After Cheng Yan came back, he had to stay at his place for a week.
