The Command to Pamper the Husband - Chapter 18

As the scarred man leaped up, the large black dog stepped on the head of Shen Yue’s hidden guard and charged in majestically.

The massive body cast a shadow over the scarred man’s head.

The dog’s entrance seemed to carry its own background music.

The hidden guards…

Is this really a good way to make an entrance?!

Even as a traitor, does it need to make such an appearance?!

The large black dog, stepping on the hidden guard’s head, leaped and pounced on the scarred man’s head like lightning, swiping its paw at the man’s eyes.

Swift and clean.

Blood splattered.

Just as the dog’s paw came down, the hidden guard’s dart shot towards the scarred man’s throat.

Man and dog, perfectly coordinated.

The scarred man…

Even in his dying moment, his mind was echoing with shock: This dog has truly betrayed us!

…

Under the large black dog’s lead, the thirty assassins sent by the crown prince were completely annihilated.

Shen Yue’s hidden guards stared at the aftermath, dumbfounded.

Though they were led to believe the dog would help them defeat the enemy, in reality, out of the four hidden guards, only one had to act.

It was the one who threw the dart at the scarred man!

If not for his quick action, throwing the dart just before the dog bit down, they might have had no kills to their name.

They seriously suspected that the black dog led them there just to show off its own skills.

What a crushing defeat!

The large black dog strutted around in front of the lined-up hidden guards, its eyes filled with pride and satisfaction.

With all enemies eliminated, only the cleanup remained.

For such mundane tasks, the dog didn’t fight for the lead.

It lazily lay in the sunlit courtyard, its wet eyes gazing at the dappled leaves above, filled with endless happiness and contentment.

As if a wanderer had finally found a place to belong.

By the time everything was cleaned up and they returned to the Song household, Shen Yue’s boiled pork slices were just being served.

The hidden guards returned to Pine Fragrance Courtyard ahead of Song Jin.

When Song Jin and Wan Xi entered Pine Fragrance Courtyard with the dish from Phoenix Shadow Tower, the hidden guards had already hidden themselves. Only the large black dog greeted Song Jin enthusiastically, wagging its tail.

Its warm welcome truly lifted one’s spirits.

Song Jin couldn’t help but smile, patting the black dog’s head, “Good boy, I’ll give you a meat bone later.”

The large black dog rubbed its head against Song Jin’s leg, wagging its tail as it followed her inside.

A large blue and white porcelain basin was set on the round table, emitting a fragrant aroma that reached Song Jin’s nose.

Wow~

This smells so good!

Song Jin was a natural foodie with no resistance to delicious food.

The moment the aroma hit her, she almost forgot she was supposed to be a man.

Her eyes sparkled as she lunged at the dish of boiled pork slices.

Her mouth watered: gulp.

With her years of experience eating meat, she knew that something smelling this delicious would taste even better.

Numb and spicy, just the way she liked it.

Though his shoulder injury hadn’t fully healed and making the boiled pork slices had strained it, Shen Yue leaned pale-faced against the bed.

His eyes couldn’t hide the disdain he felt.

This effeminate person is just too much!

Holding to the principle of focusing on the bigger picture, Shen Yue suppressed his disgust and said, “Try it then, and don’t go back on your word!”

Song Jin was already impatiently sitting down.

“Don’t worry, I, Song Jin, always keep my word!”

Without even glancing at Shen Yue, her eyes were fixed on the dish of boiled pork slices. She picked up a piece with her chopsticks before she finished speaking.

The meat, wrapped in fragrant, spicy flavors, entered her mouth.

Tender and spicy.

As Song Jin closed her eyes in enjoyment, Wan Xi, standing beside her, swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

“Young Master, is it good?”

Leaning over Song Jin’s shoulder, Wan Xi asked eagerly.

Song Jin quickly picked up another piece and put it in her mouth.

Wan Xi watched as the meat on Song Jin’s chopsticks entered her mouth, then gulped.

Chewing, Song Jin said, “Go get a pair of chopsticks and try it yourself.”

Wan Xi rushed out and returned in a flash, barely able to wait before putting a piece of meat into her mouth. Her eyes lit up.

“It’s so delicious!”

Chewing, Wan Xi looked at Lu Zhan.

“This boiled pork slices are miles better than those from Phoenix Shadow Tower! Who made it?”

Just as Lu Zhan was about to speak, Shen Yue cut in, “He did.”

Lu Zhan…

He gave his prince a surprised look, then quickly understood.

He would take the blame!

After all, his prince was still a prince, even if not favored. It wouldn’t do for people to know he cooked.

“It was me.” Lu Zhan played his role well.

Song Jin gave Lu Zhan a thumbs-up, “Well done! Whatever Shen Yue is paying you, I’ll pay you ten times more to stay! If you have a family, bring them here; the Song family will take care of everything!”

Lu Zhan…

Fearfully, he turned to Shen Yue.

Shen Yue looked at the effeminate person with disgust, “Young Master Song, if you’re satisfied, fulfill your promise.”

Just as Shen Yue finished speaking, he was stunned to see the large black dog leap up, standing on its hind legs with its front paws on the table.

Drooling, it stared at the meat.

Drool dripped from its tongue.

Song Jin ignored Shen Yue’s words, turning to pat the dog’s head, “You want to eat too?”

The dog nodded, drooling.

Song Jin chuckled, placing a few pieces of meat on the table edge, “Be careful, it’s very spicy.”

The dog, full of bravado, gobbled up the seven or eight pieces of meat.

The next moment…

A dog that had killed countless people roared and bolted out of the room.

Water!

Where is water!

So spicy!

Are humans crazy?

Eating something so spicy with such enthusiasm!

Water!

The large black dog rampaged around the courtyard like a trapped beast, finally finding the water vat in the kitchen.

Inside…

Everyone was dumbfounded!

Song Jin suddenly realized what it meant to be dumbfounded!

So cultured!

Wan Xi, who had been holding a piece of meat in mid-air for a long time, finally ate it and worriedly asked Song Jin, “Young Master, is Yuan Bao okay?”

Song Jin…

“Yuan Bao?”

Wan Xi patted her chest, “Since I’m Wan Xi and it follows you too, it should be called Yuan Bao. I named it on the way to Phoenix Shadow Tower.”

Song Jin…

So, you and the dog are of the same generation?

Lu Zhan…

Shen Yue…

Shen Yue had had enough of this pointless conversation between master and servant.

“Let’s discuss business.”

Shen Yue sat opposite Song Jin, his face expressionless.

Song Jin, pulling her focus back, chewed on her meat and said, “Don’t worry, I promised…”

Before she could finish, she noticed some meat bits on Shen Yue’s pale face.

And Shen Yue…

Looked as if he had been paralyzed!

Lu Zhan stood rigidly, his back stiff.

Just as Song Jin said the word “promised,” Lu Zhan saw the chewed meat from Song Jin’s mouth spray onto his prince’s face.
