How To Melt An Ice Cube 6 You Didnt Leave Me Any

All of the servants had to hide the signs of drool coming from their mouths. Even if they had helped cook it they were not ent.i.tled to eat any. This meal was specifically created for the young master how could they dare to wish for some. However they couldn't help themselves from wanting the smallest nibble.

Mai cut the pork loin between the bones, watching as the juice slowly ran down to the bottom of the pain.

"Do you have a dish that is similar to this?" Mai asked the servants as she was concentrating on arranging the pork loin in a beautiful manner.

"Replying to young miss, we have something with the same cut, but never have a seen something that is quite like this" Zhi Yan said.

"Good! I can't wait until we try it, it smells amazing" Mai said cheerfully.

Each servant then thought "us try it?" They had already forgotten that she was crazy for her supposed past after spending the afternoon with her. However they couldn't keep the shock off of there faces.

"Miss how can we try your food? We are simple servants" Zhi Yan replied dejectedly. You could see the sorrow on her face as she was coming to terms of not trying the pork.

"Nonsense, I don't care what the current rules are. You all helped me make it so you should at least try it. I won't take no for a answer. Don't think about your previous masters I will treat you a lot better!" Mai said in a heart filled tone and a giant smile on her face. Mai was thinking about winning them over with food.

The servants faces weren't one of graditudue like Mai had expected but as if they had walked in on a awkward situation. It was almost funny that they all wore identical faces. If it wasn't so seriously Mai would have started laughing but she really wanted to get them on her side.

"I wasn't aware that I treated my servants badly" A cold mainly voice sounded from behind her.

Mai jumped around in surprise to see the not to unfarmily face of Han Bing.

"I didn't mean it like that! Just that ummmm" Mai couldn't come up with a excuse fast enough.

Han Bing continued to stare at Mai with his frosty gaze not letting her get another word out.

"th, th, that…." Mai tried to reply but the atmosphere around the ice cold man made it impossible.

Seeing the awkward situation that there young miss was in Zhi Ruo declared "Young master, Mai has taken a long time to prepare you a meal please try it."

"mm" was all that he replied with as he sat down. Zhi Ruo handed him a bowl of rice, then 2 pieces of the pork loin on top follow with a side bowl of the veggies.

Mai watched as Han Bing took a large bite of the pork loin. She knew that even if he wanted to pretend to not like it, it was way better than the current food he had been eaten. Much to her surprise though Han Bing devoured everything in his bowl in a matter of seconds. Almost like a hungry wolf after not having food for weeks. Gone was the appearance of a delicate young man and in his place stood a beast.

Her shock continued to grow as he growled for seconds and then thirds.

Before they knew it he finished his third bowl. Mai was questioning where he was putting all his food.

He pa.s.sed the bowl to the servant again for another large portion not even bothering to growl.

"Young master" Zhi Ruo said breathlessly "you already ate all of the meat."

Han Bing looked around the room with a scowl on his face and grabbed the side bowl of veggies and started to devour those as well.

Mai finally regained her senses and said "Don't you think you have eaten enough food? You didn't even leave any for the rest of us." Mai sighed at the thought of not eating the food that she had made.

Han Bing actually put down the side bowl of veggies and coughed. His cheeks had a slight tinge of pink from embarra.s.sment.

" Ah" now Han Bing was even lost for words with his actions.

"Right, this food matches my tastes very well complements miss Mai" Han Bing said while looking at her. If everyone wasn't so surprised by what had just seen they wouldn't have missed the slight longing that had appeared in Han Bing eyes.

Mai blushed with his complement and acted like a docile flower "thank you." she mumbled.

Even though Mai knew how to cook from watching her mom and experimenting on her own this was the first time she had made a dish for someone that was not her best friend.

"I don't understand this man! One moment he is a giant ice cube that's typical in a transmigration novel then the next moment he's super cute" Mai thought to herself almost unsure of how to act around him. "Maybe I can fully melt this ice cube? No I have to wait and see, escaping is still top priority."

Seeming to sense the undercurrents in the room Han Bing coughed again and said "You shall get a very good reward for this food."

"Zheng Li bring in the reward," Han Bing shouted out.

"Right away young master" was heard from outside of the kitchen room.

Han Bing smiled as he mentioned that he had picked out the reward specifically for Mai. In his mind he thought that his most trusted friend would certainly get a gift that a woman would want like jewelry or hair ornaments. Never would he have guessed that Zheng Li views on what females liked would be so skewed from his little sister. So much so that it would have been better if he actually had picked out the gift himself.

Mai was touched by the thought this guy was putting in. It was better than what her own father did when he needed to get a gift for her mom or herself.

"How many layers does this ice cube have to him? Not only is he handsome and strong but also thoughtful. Is he really a ice cube?" Mai thought to herself. "No I can't be thinking like this, I am his prisoner for G.o.d sakes."

Once Mai reminded herself why she was here again she had to fight to urge to roll her eyes. "Stop trying to win me over, I don't want to deal with your ice cube ways" Mai thought.

Right when Mai was going to say more Zheng Li walked into the room. In his arms was a bundle wrapped around a light cream blanket. It looked to be about 10 inches long. Mai glanced at Han Bing trying to figure out what kind of reward he picked out for her that gave him so much confidence earlier, but even he had a confused face.

Han Bing right eye started to twitch as the bundle in Zheng Li arms let out a squeal.
