Beyond charming

Li Xiqing went back to the kitchen, took out a wine opener and started to work on the bottle. Yan Yan had been too stressed out and tired from travelling back to the painful past. He was hoping the wine would help her to feel more relaxed, fading away that gruesome memory for some time.

He glanced at the clock on the wall, and mentally calculated the time that she needed to shower. He put on his apron, and started to roam around the kitchen. He also started to prepare the ingredients that he would need: butter, pearl onions, garlic, thyme, olive oil, Himalayan pink salt and fresh cracked peppers. And now, he was ready to start to cook, implementing his expertise in this regard.

When Shao Yan came out of the bedroom, a hint of peppery meat hit her nostrils. She reflexively hunted down the source, and saw Li Xiqing was basting the steak with the fragrant garlic butter.
