A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 8 Delivering Meals and Warmth

"I'm leaving, I'm leaving, I'm leaving right now!" Shen Tang came to her senses and turned to run away in fright.

Shen Lijun's face darkened. Before he could get angry, he saw the fat woman disappear in a flash. He sneered: "You're incredibly audacious, but at least you've learned your lesson!"
Shen Tang ran outside, panting heavily, her fat trembling.

She hadn't forgotten that the original owner of this body used to be infatuated with Shen Li. Taking advantage of the fact that they were half-siblings, she often spied on him while he was bathing. If it weren't for her status as a princess protecting her, Shen Li would have secretly killed her long ago!
Recalling his cold, murderous gaze, Shen Tang was filled with lingering fear, and her heart was still pounding.

But it must be said that Shen Li's appearance and figure are really good, like a beautiful rose with thorns. The scene of the handsome man emerging from the bath is still vivid in my mind. Not to mention the original owner was drooling, she was also drooling with envy!
Unfortunately, the man loathed her.

It's so tempting to see it but not be able to touch it!
Not long after, a voice as cold as ice came from inside the house.

"Come in."

Shen Tang composed herself and pushed open the door to enter.

Shen Li sat upright on the sofa, having regained the gentle and composed demeanor he displayed in public. The cold and tyrannical man from just moments before seemed like a completely different person.

In the sweltering summer heat, he wore no fewer than five layers of thick clothing, completely covering himself up, guarding against a certain notorious lecher. Shen Tang twitched her lips. Was she really that thirsty?
When Shen Li saw her enter the house, his brows furrowed. "I have no money here!"

His tone was quite unfriendly, as if he wanted to tell her to get lost.

Shen Tang was speechless. "I didn't come here to ask you for money."

"Then what are you doing here?" Shen Li asked, her face full of disbelief.

This spendthrift woman is extremely addicted to gambling. Every month, the salary they handed over to her was used for gambling. She had terrible luck and was completely outmaneuvered by the people at the casino. She didn't earn a single penny and lost all her money, even tens of millions. Shen Li and the others almost went hungry and had to mortgage their house to pay off their debts.

Fearing that this spendthrift woman would ruin their family, Shen Li and the others stopped giving her their wages three months ago, only providing her with basic living expenses. However, Shen Tang was used to spending money extravagantly, and she would squander all the money at the beginning of the month. When she ran out of money, she would shamelessly ask them for more and continue gambling. Whenever they refused to give her money, she would get angry and start acting recklessly, resorting to disgusting tricks.

Shen Li had had enough of this life. He stared intently at Shen Tang's every move. If this woman dared to ask him for money to gamble again, he had no doubt that he would go crazy and kill her!

Shen Tang looked down and didn't see the hint of murderous intent in the man's eyes. She took out a lunchbox and said softly, "This is the meat soup I made. I brought it here for you to try."

Shen Li's right hand had unknowingly transformed into a beast, its sharp claws gleaming with a cold light, poised to strike. Just as Shen Tang opened her mouth, he almost rushed forward to strangle her, but after hearing her words clearly, he froze on the spot, wondering if he had misheard.

Shen Tang didn't hear his response, so she looked up with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Shen Li quickly hid his beast-transformed right hand behind his back, his expression returning to normal as if the earlier anomaly had never occurred. He coldly asked, "You cooked this?"

"Hmm! Try it and see if it suits your taste. This is my first time cooking, so it might not be very good," Shen Tang said, both nervous and expectant.

Shen Li frowned and glanced at her, then looked at the lunchbox on the table. Had the sun risen in the west? This fat woman was actually cooking for him? Could she be planning to drug him again?
Disgust flashed in Shen Li's eyes. She didn't even bother to open the lunchbox. She would just throw it into the trash can after she left.

Shen Tang didn't care. Anyway, she had delivered the warmth to his home. This bastard man was unlucky to not get to eat her cooking!

"Well, there is something I wanted to ask you today..." Shen Tang said hesitantly.

Shen Li had an "I knew it" look on his face. His tone was sarcastic and his expression was gloomy. "What do you want me to do for you this time?"

"I'd like to ask you to help me find some seasonings. I can't find them at the city's vegetable market. I'm wondering if you have any connections in this area."

Shen Li's cold gaze fell on Shen Tang, his lips pressed tightly together, and he asked uncertainly, "What did you say?" Shen Tang thought to herself that this jerk might not be hearing well, so she had no choice but to patiently repeat herself, "I want to ask you to help me find some seasonings! I need them for cooking. As a way of repaying you, I will send you a portion every time I finish making a new dish. Of course, you can also come to my house to eat." It would save her the trouble of running errands.

Shen Li was now certain that there was nothing wrong with his ears, but he was even more surprised. He frowned as he looked at the female in front of him. What kind of trouble was she planning to cause this time?

This fat woman is incredibly lazy. She lies at home like a parasite, waiting to be fed. She's never even stepped into the kitchen. Has she changed her ways today?

No, it can't be that simple. Shen Li's face darkened as he recalled this woman's past self-destructive behavior. "Stop with your filthy thoughts. Do you think I'll fall for your tricks? Your scheming will only make me despise you more!"

This confirms that she had drugged the food again.

Enraged, this wicked woman might even retaliate by poisoning them, trying to kill them!

The female master can inherit the beast husband's estate. In the past, in order to get the money, she pretended to be kind and gentle to deceive them and then poisoned them. Shen Li almost fell for it back then because of his childhood friendship and almost died. Since then, he has completely lost all feelings for her.

Shen Tang also remembered this incident, her face turned pale, and she cursed inwardly that the original owner's viciousness deserved divine retribution!
To prove her innocence, Shen Tang opened the lunchbox in front of Shen Li and took a big gulp of meat soup. "I didn't tamper with the meat soup, I didn't add any drugs, and I didn't poison it. If I've lied to you, I'll die right here in front of you!"

The irresistible aroma of meat made Shen Li's mouth water uncontrollably, and he looked at the confident Shen Tang with suspicion.

Her eyes were clear and gentle, unlike before when she had a face full of crooked thoughts, a wicked and disgusting feeling.

Shen Li lowered his long eyelashes and secretly vowed in his heart: if this female dares to poison him again, he will send her to see the Beast God on the spot!

Shen Li only tasted a sip of the meat soup, a look of surprise flashing in her red eyes, which she quickly concealed.

The broth was rich and flavorful, and the meat was stewed until tender and juicy. He came from the palace and had eaten the food of all sorts of five-star chefs, but this broth was actually comparable to that of the imperial chefs. Could it really have been made by this fat woman in front of him? But he just couldn't believe it. If this fat woman could cook, pigs could fly!
He drank the entire pot of broth, not a drop left, and still wanted more.

I felt no physical discomfort, but my mind was filled with disbelief.

“Okay, I’ll help you find the spices.” Shen Li agreed readily this time.

He wanted to see for himself what other tricks she could pull.

Seeing the man's disbelief, Shen Tang was furious. She was determined to prove him wrong and slap him in the face! Ideally, she'd make him kneel down and sing "Conquer"!
"You wait, next time we research new dishes, I'll call you over and personally show you my culinary skills!"

"Alright, I'll wait and see. If you lose, then we'll sign the divorce papers!" Shen Li smiled coolly.

Shen Tang's eyes widened in surprise. "So, this bastard is waiting here!"
Shen Tang said firmly, "What if you lose?"

Shen Li frowned, then relaxed his grip. "At your beck and call."

"Hehe, it's a deal!" Shen Tang smiled like a sly fox.

Her smile reveals a mouthful of crooked, rotten teeth that are so ugly they make you want to pull them all out and replace them with porcelain veneers.

Shen Li turned her head away and said disdainfully, "Shut your mouth, it's ugly."

Shen Tang's lips twitched with anger. How come she never noticed before that this fox was also a sharp-tongued person!
