115: Empress's Wide Noodles

Inside the Wei Ran Residence of the Netherworld, the air was filled with a yuri vibe.

A faint fragrance permeated Her Majesty the Empress's bedroom. Shang Wan Ning lay lazily across the sofa, focused on the Bridge of Helplessness model on the vanity.

She was wearing the same thin silk pajamas, with key areas teasingly visible...

"BOSS, bringing me to the Netherworld like this, is it really appropriate?" Chief Assistant Lin couldn't help but utter a "green tea remark," then turned her face slightly away.

Shang Wan Ning's lips curled up, and rubbing her fingertips, she replied: "Hasn't Chief Assistant Lin always yearned to enter the upper echelons? Now, doesn't this fulfill your wish perfectly!" As she spoke, she waved her hand and put away the Bridge of Helplessness model.

Then, she picked up a crystal-clear grape and placed it in her mouth to savor.

Lin Ran didn't seem reassured and asked again: "BOSS, as a living person, will there really be no problems with me coming to the Netherworld?"

Lin Ran approached the sofa, stepped over Shang Wan Ning's legs, and sat steadily beside her.

"Others might have their lifespan reduced because of this, but you are my trusted confidante, so how could anything happen to you?"

Shang Wan Ning opened her hands slightly and gently stroked the top of Lin Ran's head.

Although it was only a faint warmth transmitted through her hair, it felt like a burning flame, making Lin Ran's body instantly scorching hot, and a sense of dampness gradually spread.

【Her Majesty the Empress is actually... stroking her head.】

Lin Ran bit her lip tightly, a beautiful blush rising on her face. She didn't even dare to lift her head, fearing that Shang Wan Ning would discover her abnormality!!!

"Gurgle, gurgle..." Lin Ran's stomach let out a protest.

"Hungry? That's right, you've been keeping me company all day, Chief Assistant Lin."

"Do you want me to 'make wide noodles' for you to eat? It just so happens that Old Granny Ghost has prepared a small kitchen in the bedroom."

【Huh? Her Majesty the Empress is making noodles? Is this 'making noodles' or that 'making noodles'???】

Lin Ran almost leaked, but she forced herself to endure the discomfort.

"No need, BOSS! Your Subordinate will order takeout when I return to the mortal realm."

【Sob, sob, sob... don't come anymore, my waist is so sore. The Secretary-General has been lying in bed for two days!!!】

"It's three in the morning. Are you sure anyone would dare to deliver if you ordered takeout?"

"With the current Spiritual Energy Revival, the only ones who dare to wander outside at night are ghost messengers or cultivators."

Shang Wan Ning rolled up her sleeves and picked up a plate of grapes, shoving them into Chief Assistant Lin's arms. "Eat some grapes to pad your stomach first. I'll make you a meal; I wouldn't dare refuse your cooking."

"Grapes? The kind that costs 100,000 per grape?" Lin Ran bit her lower lip and retorted.

Looking at Chief Assistant Lin's feigned innocent and naive expression, Shang Wan Ning suddenly didn't know what to say.

【Oh ho! Another veteran driver added to my harem.】

"What's wrong! BOSS." Lin Ran said softly, clutching the corner of her clothes with both hands.

Her eyes blinked as she looked at Shang Wan Ning, full of overflowing "amorous" intent.

Shang Wan Ning's mouth twitched. She didn't know what she should say at this moment, but the words were swallowed back before she could speak.

After all, for Chief Assistant Lin, who was a newcomer—a novice at bed sports.

'Ahem! Someone has their filters turned all the way up and thinks so unilaterally.'

Such a scene was truly a bit awkward. But as an experienced veteran, it was not the time for exercise now.

At least one needs to be well-fed and rested to have the energy to work. Although Shang the Skin Flayer was usually very stingy, she was quite soft-hearted toward her own women.

"Hahahaha! These grapes are not ordinary grapes, oh. They were carefully selected by the maid from the Wangxiang Terrace."

"Then carefully cultivated with Spiritual Energy Revival before being picked; they are truly priceless!"

Shang Wan Ning smiled proudly, then turned and walked into the kitchen to start preparing the meal.

After hearing Shang Wan Ning's introduction, Lin Ran couldn't help but inwardly marvel: "Her Majesty the Empress really knows how to enjoy life!"

However, come to think of it, these grapes did look eye-catching. Each one was crystal clear and emitted a faint fruity fragrance, making one drool just by looking at them.

Lin Ran gently picked up a grape and put it in her mouth, instantly experiencing the delicious texture and sweet taste—sweet but not cloying.

"It's delicious!"

While savoring the delicious grapes, Lin Ran watched Shang Wan Ning's busy figure in the kitchen, and a feeling of happiness welled up in her heart.

【The Secretary-General is not here; me helping her enjoy this shouldn't count as 'cheating,' right!】

( „ ಡ ω ಡ „ ) Thanks.

Before long, Shang Wan Ning had made a steaming bowl of noodles. Lin Ran smelled the aroma and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

"Taste it." Shang Wan Ning handed the noodles to Lin Ran.

Lin Ran took the noodles and tasted a bite. Her eyes lit up instantly, and she couldn't stop praising: "Superb!"

Shang Wan Ning smiled and said: "As long as you like it, tell me anytime you want to eat in the future."

Hearing this, Lin Ran felt warm inside, feeling like she was starting to like Her Majesty the Empress more and more.

【Wait, This Old Lady shouldn't be a love-struck fool, right?】

【I was bought over just because of a bowl of noodles. But thinking about it carefully, Her Majesty the Empress is stunningly beautiful, has overwhelming power, and is gentle and considerate... Looking at it this way, it seems I'm not the one losing out by being bought over!】

【I'm the one lying down, and I'm also the one enjoying it!!!】

【Hehehe... slurp, slurp...】

Lin Ran smiled foolishly and finished the noodles in no time.

"Hiccup, hiccup, hiccup... so full! (=^▽^=)"

"Sniff, sniff, sniff!"

The white-haired little loli, wearing camisole pajamas and slippers, trotted all the way to the door of Her Majesty the Empress's bedroom and knocked gently.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Onee-san, Onee-san!"

"Eating alone is not good! Open the door, open the door."

Shang Wan Ning held her forehead in helplessness and muttered to herself: "Oh no, I forgot the small kitchen is very close to her bedroom. Honestly, why is this gluttonous yandere loli here again."

"Open the door, open the door! Your Majesty!" The little loli's urgent knocking and shouting came from outside the door.

Shang Wan Ning sighed and got up to open the door. The white-haired little loli immediately rushed into the room impatiently, but when she saw Lin Ran, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"What's wrong?" Shang Wan Ning asked, looking at the little loli curiously.

"Chief Assistant Lin is here too..." The little loli glared fiercely at Lin Ran, then turned her head and looked pitifully at Shang Wan Ning, "Your Majesty, Yu Yu wants to eat noodles too."

Shang Wan Ning smiled slightly and stroked the little loli's head, "I'll have Old Granny Ghost make some for you tomorrow, okay?"

"Damei! Why can that woman have them, but I can't have noodles to eat."

"Hmph!" Chen Yu pouted angrily, "Your Majesty is biased. I don't care, I want to eat noodles too, I want them now." After speaking, she sat on the floor and started throwing a tantrum.

Seeing this, Lin Ran couldn't help but chuckle.

Shang Wan Ning looked at the scene before her with a headache and shook her head helplessly, "Alright, alright, alright, I'll make noodles for you right now."

【Sigh! Sure enough, once you've slept (crossed out) become familiar with someone, you can't be soft-hearted anymore.】
