Yukari Yakumo wouldn't listen to a word and simply threw her onto the table.

She quickly lifted the hem of her skirt.

Her long, straight legs and her snow-white, jade-like skin were exposed.

"Clap clap—!"

The sound of continuous slaps echoed in the courtyard.

Bai An felt guilty upon hearing this and silently prayed for her for a few seconds before excitedly opening the video she had just recorded.

On the screen was a scene of Yakumo Ran angrily confronting Yakumo Yukari.

After adding a note to the video titled "Valuable Anti-Christian Footage," Bai An put away her camera with satisfaction and walked outside.

The battle was over by then, even though Yakumo Ran possessed the strength of a great youkai.

After being brutally beaten for several minutes, it will completely lose its ability to resist and lie limply on the stone table.

Her skin was bright red, making her exceptionally alluring.

Yukari Yakumo was still seething with rage.

She never imagined that one day she would be called an old woman by her own shikigami.

This is truly intolerable!

"Zi, what happened? Why are you so angry?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Yukari Yakumo looked up at the doorway.

What came into view was Bai An's smiling face.

His appearance instantly made Yakumo Yukari realize why Ran was acting so strangely today.

So it turns out that Bai An was the one who did this behind the scenes.

But since she couldn't beat him, she couldn't just get angry. She didn't want to get spanked in front of the shikigami.

She took a deep breath, trying to suppress the raging anger within her, and forced a smile, saying gently:

"Bai An, what brings you here?"

Seeing how quickly her master Yukari's expression changed, Yakumo Ran felt like crying.

Today's events taught her that you should never accept gifts from others indiscriminately, as they must always be returned.

"Of course I came to see you! I remember someone saying they could cook, and that Yuuka and I would want more after we finished. I came here specifically to supervise your cooking!"

Upon hearing Bai An's words, Yakumo Yukari nearly vomited blood; she had indeed said such a thing.

I recently acquired Yakumo Ran as a shikigami, and coincidentally, her cooking skills are quite good.

That's why she made that bold statement.

When Yakumo Ran finished making it, she could take it to the Dream Pavilion. But she never expected that Bai An would come specifically to watch her make it.

"Tell me, did you instigate Lan to say those things just now?"

Yukari Yakumo decided to confront the first topic head-on, glaring fiercely at Bai An.

She sensed something was wrong from the very beginning.

Given Lan's personality, she always obeyed her orders without question, but today she dared to talk back to her and even accuse her of abusing shikigami. Isn't that just asking for a beating?

The only possibility is that he was forced by Bai An.

"Isn't this a surprise for you?"

"Surprise my foot!"

Hearing Bai An's shameless words, Yakumo Yukari was furious.

If flames could shoot from her eyes, Bai An would probably be reduced to ashes by now.

"Okay, don't be angry. I came here for another reason: to give you a gift."

"Gift?"

Hearing his words, Yukari Yakumo was taken aback and raised an eyebrow to ask.

This guy actually wanted to give her something, which is unusual for him. Usually, she would just sneakily take it.

"Yes, it's a gift for you."

Bai An nodded, took out a parasol from his backpack, and handed it to Yakumo Yukari.

"I just made this last night, see if you like it."

Yukari Yakumo examined the parasol closely. The parasol was made of pink fabric and had two bows at the tip, making it extremely exquisite.

It looks like they put thought into it, which made Yakumo Shiki lose half of her power.

She carefully folded up the parasol.

But he kept a straight face and spoke in a stiff tone.

"Fine, we forgive you. Didn't you want to eat the food we made? Let's go to the kitchen and cook it first. Don't follow us."

After saying that, she took the lead and left.

After Yakumo Yukari left, Bai An turned to look at Yakumo Ran, who was lying on the stone table looking utterly hopeless, and took out a bottle of medicine.

"Crackling!"

The sound of the medicine shattering rang out.

Yakumo Ran felt completely comfortable; the areas that had been in unbearable pain were instantly covered by a cool sensation.

She opened her eyes and saw a mountain of fried tofu piled up in front of her, her pupils dilating suddenly.

All the suffering was worth it!

"Zi, are you sure you did all of this?"

"Of course, this is the result of our hard work, so it's bound to taste good."

Facing Bai An's suspicious gaze, Yakumo Yukari remained calm and composed, responding earnestly.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to have Lan prepare a meal in advance; otherwise, she really wouldn't have been able to fool them.

I'm sure I'll be proven wrong today.

Looking at the confident Yakumo Yukari, Bai An turned to look at Yakumo Ran, seemingly seeking an answer.

Yakumo Ran immediately lowered her head guiltily and ate her fried tofu, pretending not to see Bai An's gaze.

Lord Zi has given a death order this time.

This meal must be prepared by Lady Zi.

If she dares to expose it.

Lord Zi will definitely hold me accountable for what just happened.

Pluck the hair directly.

Make a fox fur coat.

so...

I can only apologize to these fried tofu.

I'm sorry, Lord Bai.

She didn't want to become a naked fox.

Looking at Yakumo Ran, who was practically burying her face in the fried tofu, Bai An's lips twitched, but she ultimately gave up on asking further questions.

The dishes on the table were plentiful.

The table was laden with a full meal, along with various desserts and fruits.

It does look quite delicious.

Bai An picked up a piece of chicken and took a bite.

Fresh, tender and juicy.

But the icy-cold taste made him raise an eyebrow.

He picked up another piece of pork rib with his chopsticks.

After trying it out this time, he was finally able to confirm it.

These dishes are all cold.

"Zi, have you tried making these dishes yourself?"

Bai An put down his chopsticks and looked at Yakumo Yukari to ask.

He wondered why this guy could prepare a whole table of dishes in just a few minutes in the kitchen.

It turns out they not only hired someone else to do it.

And it was served without even being heated.

"No, what's wrong?"

Yakumo Yukari shook her head blankly.

On the surface, he remained as calm as an old dog, but inside, his heart was churning with turmoil.

Did Lan's cooking skills go wrong?

Although Lan's craftsmanship wasn't as good as Bai An's, it was still among the best.

At such an important moment, it's impossible for something to go wrong by chance.

Thinking this, she picked up a piece of pork rib.

The moment he took a bite, his face darkened.

I forgot to heat it up!

"It's been quite hot lately, so we were thinking that eating something cold would be more refreshing."
