    Chapter 22: Very Good at Taking Care of His Wife

    After putting on the mask, Yu An took two steps back and unconsciously scratched his slightly itchy skin.

    Was it an illusion?

    Why did he always feel… that Xie Jinsheng had just been sniffing his neck?

    089: […]

    Be more confident, don’t doubt it.

    If it hadn’t witnessed the whole thing, the system probably couldn’t have imagined that the aloof, crazy villain from an S-class world.

    Had been secretly sniffing its little pretty host’s body fragrance the whole time!

    Looking like an infatuated pervert dog, which stunned 089.

    If it wasn’t afraid that Yu An would be frightened if he found out, affecting the subsequent mission progress, it would have really wanted to spill the beans.

    It seemed that it had to pay more attention to protecting the host in the future.

    It would absolutely not allow the host to be harmed!

    Yu An didn’t know what 089 was thinking, and only looked at Xie Jinsheng, who was now wearing the mask.

    The man’s features were already deep, but now with the added coldness of the silver metal, he looked even more mysterious and handsome.

    Yu An was stunned for a few seconds, and almost blurted out, “So handsome.”

    “…”

    Hearing this, the man’s gaze paused slightly, and the darkness in his eyes deepened silently.

    Why did he carelessly speak his mind?

    Yu An came back to his senses, feeling embarrassed, and quickly turned his face away, changing the subject, “I, I’m a little hungry, let’s go eat.”

    Xie Jinsheng peered through the dim light.

    He immediately caught sight of the boy’s fair ear tips, dyed with a touch of light pink.

    So cute that he wanted to… bully him.

    After walking out of the warehouse.

    Yu An always felt that Xie Jinsheng was staring at him on the way.

    But when he turned his head, he saw that the Alpha was only looking ahead, with no abnormality.

    That’s right.

    Why would the villain look at him for no reason?

    Besides, his thin and weak body wasn’t anything worth staring at, right?

    Thinking of this, Yu An relaxed again.

    When they arrived at the restaurant, there weren’t many people left.

    Fortunately, this doomsday world they had come to was in the future era. Although the infected were rampant, the technology was advanced, and they didn’t have to worry about supplies.

    Dinner was extremely lavish, but it had to be paid for.

    Yu An looked at the set meal.

    And then at his crystal core.

    He still had to save a bit, it was enough to just eat his fill. He didn’t know what kind of system Rong Nan Base, their destination, had, and there would be more places to spend money then.

    “I’ll have set meal one.”

    Yu An paid with his low-level crystal core, feeling poor.

    At worst, he would eat less and share with Xie Jinsheng. That should be enough.

    After ordering the set meal, Yu An returned to his seat. He saw Xie Jinsheng at the table, holding a chopstick, looking at the remaining one, as if he was thinking about something.

    After a while, Yu An finally understood what was going on.

    –Xie Jinsheng didn’t know how to use chopsticks.

    This man had been locked in a laboratory since he was a child, constantly having his blood drawn and covered in wounds, unable to eat. His energy all came from nutritional fluids.

    Not to mention that he had amnesia now.

    Yu An felt a little touched, and asked softly, “Do you need my help?”

    Xie Jinsheng raised his eyes to look at him.

    His eyes were deep.

    “I’m not laughing at you.” Yu An walked to his side, and said helpfully, “So what if you don’t know how to use chopsticks, it’s not a big deal, I’ll teach you.”

    “You have to hold it like this first–” As he spoke, the boy lowered his head, took his hand, and patiently corrected his chopstick-holding posture little by little.

    The faint scent of jasmine wafted over.

    His lips were red and moist, opening and closing as he spoke.

    Xie Jinsheng couldn’t quite hear what he was saying, only staring at those moist red lips.

    He recalled the soft and wet touch when the boy, in his urgency, stood on tiptoe and kissed his cheek during that chaotic time.

    It was intoxicating.

    Everywhere was soft, it was just that he was a little thin.

    It would be good to fatten him up a bit.

    Xie Jinsheng thought so.

    More than ten minutes passed, and the more Yu An taught, the more confused he became.

    With the villain’s high intelligence and strong learning ability, he should be able to learn how to use chopsticks quickly, right?

    But even after the first dish was served, Xie Jinsheng still couldn’t learn.

    Could it be that there was a problem with the way he was teaching?

    Yu An could only help clip the served meat slices into Xie Jinsheng’s bowl.

    “You eat too.” Xie Jinsheng said abruptly.

    Hearing this, Yu An felt inexplicably warm inside.

    He had only thought that Xie Jinsheng was cold before, but after spending more time together, he suddenly realized that this person was also quite down-to-earth.

    The villain with amnesia wasn’t as cold-blooded as he had imagined.

    “Okay, I’ll eat too, we’ll split it evenly.” Yu An divided the meat in the plate into two bowls, “If you really can’t learn it, don’t force yourself, I’ll get you a spoon, that’s simpler and more convenient.”

    Yu An thought for a while, and also put his chopsticks aside, saying, “We’ll both use the spoon together.”

    [Host, aren’t you not used to using a spoon in the Space-Time Bureau?] 089 said.

    “But I can’t let him be the only one using it, making him feel like an alien.” Yu An paused, and said, “I won’t do something that rubs salt into someone’s wounds.”

    Even if Xie Jinsheng was a bad villain who would destroy this world.

    Everyone, whether good or bad, could be punished for their mistakes, even executed, but they shouldn’t be humiliated.

    Because when you insult someone, what kind of person they are is no longer important, you will invisibly become the second villain.

    Xie Jinsheng looked at the chopsticks placed aside by the boy, his dark eyes moved slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

    After a moment, he picked up the chopsticks again, steady and not trembling.

    It was obvious that he had learned it long ago.

    He clipped the untouched meat in his bowl into Yu An’s bowl little by little.

    Originally, he wanted to clip it all, but perhaps he felt that he would be seen through, so he left one or two pieces for himself, placed on top of the rice so that it wasn’t obvious.

    He observed the people around him, and after a moment, walked to the ordering area, ordering several set meals, paying with a purple advanced crystal core.

    The chef, who had originally wanted to get off work, saw this situation: “…”

    Well, no matter where you are, money makes the world go round.

    089, who was left in place, watched in stunned silence: [……..]

    When Yu An came back with the spoon, it was already five minutes later.

    Strange.

    Why did he feel that there was more meat in his bowl?

    Yu An quietly glanced at it, seeing that Xie Jinsheng still had meat slices in his bowl.

    …What was he thinking just now, Xie Jinsheng didn’t even know how to use chopsticks, even if he did, he wouldn’t clip meat for him, right?

    In the end, Yu An attributed all of this to the chef being too honest, or accidentally putting too much meat in the minimum-priced set meal.

    However, in the next ten minutes.

    Facing the successively served delicious fish soup, fried chicken cutlet, crispy meat balls…

    Yu An: ???

    “089, is this something you can get in a low-end set meal, I feel like I’m eating a free meal.” He almost couldn’t sit still on his stool.

    089: […]

    It glanced at the aloof man across from it.

    Although a bit of a dog, that monster was so good at taking care of his wife.
