Just as Asuna left, Chu Xuan turned around and strode to catch up with her, but Asuna, who had a serious and dull expression, seemed to have not seen Chu Xuan walking side by side with her, and still kept her head forward.

As for where he was going...even Asuna herself didn't know.

“…”

“…”

After the two of them walked together silently for a while, Chu Xuan, who had always looked straight ahead, pushed down his reflective glasses and finally spoke first:

"Asuna, because of our efforts, since last Christmas, both lone players and various guilds have to abide by order. After the order comes, whether it is production, leveling, ss, excavation tasks, exploration maps, or inventions... everything has begun to get on track.

Now everything is moving in a good direction, but your temper is becoming more and more anxious and irritable, and you devote more and more time to exploring games and ss, and your requirements for others are becoming more and more stringent."

“…”

Asuna turned her head blankly, glanced at Chu Xuan with a gloomy look, then turned her head back, and continued to walk forward silently.

However, she did not speed up her pace and shook Chu Xuan away, but just suppressed her emotions and moved forward silently to eliminate those negative emotions that could not be vented.

Chu Xuan, who was coldly treated, followed Asuna for a while and then spoke again:

"Because there is still no clue in the game, do you have to work hard?"

“…, that’s right.”

This time, although Asuna did not stop, she finally answered Chu Xuan’s question in a muffled voice.

"Don't let yourself be so tight.

You are now like this. It's no different from when I first met you...or it's getting worse again.

If this continues, you will die before you pass the game."

Chu Xuan kept looking ahead and said in a very plain tone. He didn't look at Asuna's face.

"I don't want to waste time. It's better to be able to get out of this game one second earlier. In comparison, the danger of death is nothing."

Asuna did not turn around to look at Chu Xuan, but answered in a voice that was extremely cold to others and herself.

"Are you wasting time... I have told you many times that the combination of work and rest is better than just practicing hard, right?"

Chu Xuan seemed to be trying to persuade Asuna to relax properly, but the girl who was as expressionless as Chu Xuan replied in a very Chu Xuan style:

"I've had a rest when it's time to rest, and I've also gone to the hot springs."

"The mind has never relaxed, but has just rested my body."

“…”

Chu Xuan immediately exposed the truth about Asuna's so-called "rest". This left the girl speechless, but looking at her appearance, she had no intention of "submission" and tried her best to know that her behavior was "unscientific" and she still had to continue to persevere.

If she doesn't work harder every day, she will not be able to suppress her increasingly anxious heart, unable to vent her nameless anger gradually accumulated in her heart, and unable to close her eyes with peace of mind!

"Come to my room."

Suddenly, Chu Xuan threw out a very uneven invitation in a plain tone. Then before Asuna reacted, she turned around and walked towards the guild base of the "Sacred Black Cat Knights".

“…”

Asuna opened her eyes wide and looked at Chu Xuan's gradually moving back, which was supposed to be here to enlighten her. She was so surprised that she didn't know what to say. However, she just hesitated for a moment, then immediately gritted her teeth and followed Chu Xuan.

Along the way, neither of them was talking, and they always kept a three-meter distance. They returned to the guild's base one after another and entered the luxurious apartment belonging to Chu Xuan.

Fortunately, everyone was very busy during the day, and they didn't meet other members of the guild in the apartment area, so naturally no one saw Vice President Asuna entering the door of Vice President Chu Xuan alone, otherwise some gossip that everyone likes will soon be spread.

“Wear this.”

As soon as he entered the door, Chu Xuan took two white aprons from the kitchen door and handed one of them to Asuna.

“…”

Asuna glanced at Chu Xuan silently, then took the apron and surrounded herself.

"Do you want to drink water?"

After Chu Xuan also put on an apron, he remembered that he should entertain Asuna. However, after Asuna shook her head silently, he seemed too lazy to continue pretending and immediately turned around and entered the kitchen.

"Come with me."

Although Asuna didn't want Chu Xuan to pay attention to her, she called her over toughly, but acted so rudely that she didn't even pour her a glass of water, which made Asuna, who was in a very gloomy, couldn't help but get angry.

However, although Asuna was very unhappy, the habit she had formed over the long period of time still made her strictly obey Chu Xuan's orders.

Although there seems to be no need to obey Chu Xuan's order, as long as it is not obviously violated the "principle", Asuna does not need to refuse to obey. This is brainwashing... No, the terrible discipline.

"Cooking, will it be?"

After taking Asuna into the kitchen that seemed to be more spacious than an ordinary family's living room, Chu Xuan washed his hands in the cooking pool while asking Asuna who was following him quietly without looking back.

"Won't."

Asuna replied in a muffled voice, without any expression on her face, but this was different from the previous hunched expression. At least half of it was deliberately stern because of her anger.

But unfortunately, Chu Xuan didn't look back at her at all. No matter whether she had an expression or no expression, she couldn't get any reaction from Chu Xuan.

"Come here and take a closer look."

Chu Xuan, who turned his back to Asuna, ordered coldly, and Asuna had no intention of resisting except glaring at Chu Xuan from behind. Instead, she walked to Chu Xuan's side very obediently and looked at him expressionlessly.

With a bit of indifferent gaze, Chu Xuan directly took out the bowls, basins, knives, ingredients and seasonings needed from his item prop bar and started cooking.

He first filled the pot with water and placed it on the magic stove to boil the water.

Then he took out a piece of white and tender tofu, and quickly cut it into two centimeters square and the size was exactly the same. He took out a piece of bright red beef - without any marble patterns, just ordinary beef, and quickly chopped; there were also garlic seedlings cut into sections and chopped into bean paste in finely.

After Chu Xuan processed the ingredients, the water in the pot was boiling. He added a little salt to the water, blanched the tofu for two minutes, then took it out and soaked it in clean water.

Then Chu Xuan heats the oil pan until 40% hot, pours in the minced beef and stir-fry until slightly golden brown, then serves, pours oil again and heats until 30% hot, adds hot sauce, chops fine bean paste and chili noodles.

After the red oil was stir-fried, Chu Xuan poured the stock stored in the storage space into the pot, boiled it, poured in the tofu and cooked for three minutes, then added soy sauce, sugar and appropriate salt to season, and thickened it with water starch once.

Finally, he added minced meat and garlic sprouts and continued to cook for two minutes. He poured in water and starch for the second time to thicken it, and sprinkled pepper on the plate of juice. So a plate of macaque, spicy, hot, fragrant, crispy, tender, fresh, and full-fledged Mapo tofu was completed.

"go out."

After Mapo tofu was prepared, Chu Xuan did not clean the kitchen. He turned off the fire and came to the restaurant with a plate. Although he was still expressionless, Asuna, who had already started swallowing secretly, also followed her with a tense face.

"sit."

Chu Xuan sat on the dining table with Mapo tofu in his hand first, but when Asuna, who was struggling to not look at the plate and not letting her nose suck forcefully, sat opposite him:

"Sit on my side."

“…”

Perhaps he was angry by Chu Xuan's repeated "flirting", Asuna glared at him fiercely, then stood up unwillingly and sat on the chair beside Chu Xuan.

“Eat.”

After Asuna sat over, Chu Xuan said to her without saying a word, pointing to one of the two spoons placed next to the plate, and poured her a cup of cold water and placed it on the side, but there was no staple food.

Because of Chu Xuan's order, Asuna "was forced to do so" and scooped a spoon on the fresh green, red and white plate, and then put the slightly trembling Mapo tofu into her mouth.

“…”

Although Chu Xuan's cuisine was far beyond Asuna's expectations, with his strong willpower, Asuna's face still did not show any expression, and the frequency of putting the spoon into her mouth did not increase.

However, Chu Xuan did not care about Asuna anymore. He also picked up the spoon and concentrated on eating the tofu... he made it himself.

In less than a while, the plate of Mapo tofu was eaten up by the two of them. Asuna had already taken out her white bread in the middle and ate two breads with Mapo tofu and water.

After putting down the spoon, the two of them fell silent again. Asuna held the cup in both hands and drank water silently, while Chu Xuan sat upright, staring straight, and no one spoke first, as if whoever talked first would lose.

"Thanks……"

After drinking two glasses of water, Asuna, who had a short mouth, finally couldn't help but speak, but when she opened her mouth, she realized that her voice became extremely hoarse because of the spicy dishes just now, which made her blush.

However, because of this embarrassing accident, Asuna had to let go of her airs.

"Ahem..."

After clearing his throat hard, Asuna turned her head, looked at Chu Xuan with some embarrassment, and said to him seriously:
Chapter completed!
