The Exiled Lady's Rumoured Tyrant.

Due to a small plate of snacks, Shangguan Rei, the prettiest lady official in Qin Empire's Imperial Palace who was going to marry the youngest brother of the Emperor, exiled by her beloved Empire that she devoted her full royalty to. On that snowy night, as her bare delicate feet stepped on that bone-piercingly cold snow, her last bit of naivety and innocence were stripped away along with her will to live. With the heavy shackles on her feet, she was the only one who knows that she was falsely accused but does it even matter now? However, just as Shangguan Rei was about to give up on her desire to live, she met him, that man, that godlike man from another dimension, who she wasn't supposed to have a chance to meet in her life. And the red thread of fate has another plan for her... *The story background of this story is purely an alternative reality/history and has absolutely nothing to do with real history. And the Qin Empire is not the Qin Empire we all know. I merely use the ancient monarchy system of some ancient empire as a reference. **No NSFW, no smut. Don't read if you are looking for NSFW content.

Chapter 108 - Last Day, Fish Soup.

Niorun Palace, kitchen.

"So... Uhm... Rei, did you cook for your fiancé quite often?" The King asked, out of the blue.

"Well... Not really. He said that my cooking is a bit too petty and not very suitable for most of the occasions in the imperial family. So... I seldom cooked for anyone in Qin Palace," said Rei.

"I see. Too bad for him, I guess. He definitely misses out on the good stuff." said the King.

Rei lightly nodded without saying anything as she transferred the bean curds from the cutting board to a clean bowl. She kind of refused to talk more about her past life in Qin Empire to the King, and the King noticed that as well, thus, he stopped that topic and continue helping Rei with ingredient preparation.

After all the ingredients were nicely cleaned, washed, sliced and chopped, Rei took out a cast iron skillet and placed it on the stove.
