Chapter 666: A Waste of Good Soup_1

Chapter 666

Liu Zhi had finally left the study, went to check on the soup simmering on the stove. The bones and flesh had been boiled to melt-in-the-mouth tenderness. As she lifted the lid, a cloud of white steam billowed out, making her eyes squint.

This unexpectedly concealed her flustered state, her face flushed red. She strained the spices out of the broth and ladled the hot soup into a bowl. Internally, she was scolding herself: I was just thinking about finding a chance for a proper title. Otherwise, as the days go by, I, with no legitimate title, would just have to marry a random servant.

What a missed opportunity earlier when I didn't seize the moment and throw myself into his arms.

While Liu Zhi was lost in her thoughts, Cheng Dalei, cooped up in his study, wasn't feeling any better. At this moment, Liu Zhi entered the room with the soup divided into two delicate porcelain bowls.
