Chapter 18: You’re Not Leaving Without Your Husband!

Lillie came back to the villa, her body and head aching. Nanny Ying warmly greets her and helped carries her briefcase and shoes.

She offered to give her a massage but Lillie refused. She's actually very ticklish.

No one knows because who would even dare touch the She-Devil?

"Miss Lillie, the eldest young master already arrived and was waiting for you to have dinner with him." Nanny Ying said.

Nanny Ying was surprised, for the second time, that as soon as Ethan arrived at the villa, he started rampaging the ingredients on the kitchen and 'tried' to cook something.

Nanny Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry blood. This young master never cook in his life and he tells her that he will cook? Who is he kidding? Would he actually try to poison the young miss Bai?

After scolding him for almost an hour and officially banning him from entering the kitchen, Nanny Ying and the other scullery maids prepared a 'proper' meal.

The ever stoic and cold Ethan Li was actually pouting, like a child being banned from candy.

Nanny Ying was sighing, this kind of behavior of his was rare, it's either it's about a 'certain' someone or he was extremely drunk. This childish behavior of his, on he and Nanny Ying knows.

Lillie entered the dining room and sat down. Ethan was staring at her, as always. He wanted to ask about her day at work like a husband would to his wife.

Lillie's thoughts were at the cloud, she didn't know what to say to him. Should she thank him for giving her that property? Should she give him some kind of reward? Like a watch, tie or something? However, those kinds of things, he can buy easily. He practically owns stores full of them!

"Uhm...about that property. Don't think I'll thank you for it. I was about to have it anyway." She bluntly said.

Ethan was stunned. Is this what they call...tsundere? [1] Ethan chuckled and shook his head.

"Whatever you say." He said. Lillie's glared at him, stabbing the piece of steak with her fork harshly, wishing it was his eyeballs instead.

After a few minutes of silent meal, Lillie patted her lips with a napkin and said. "I will be going out of the country. I will not be here for 3 days, just to let you know."

Ethan stopped his fork in mid-air. What? Going out of the country?

"Where?" He sternly asked.

"Japan. I have business there." She concisely replied.

Japan...business....Is she meeting with that rumored boyfriend?!

There was a rumor surrounding the White Phoenix Empire's CEO, Lillie Bai, that she actually have a lover in Japan.

He's know as Red Raven, they don't know his real name or who he actually is. All they know that he and Lillie created 'Nightingale' which was the most popular game today.

Many had guessed that they were childhood sweethearts. Some made theories that 'Nightingale' is the sign of their 'longtime' love.

As the game is all about getting married, fighting the bosses and level upping together.

If you are married in the game, the faster you rank up.

Ethan gritted his teeth and clenched the fork he's holding. Japan, huh...

You're not leaving without your husband!

[1] Tsundere - It’s like she’s acting mean but was actually too shy to show her true feelings.

To my Otaku readers, be ashamed if you don’t know this XD.
