The King's Beautiful Chef
After the Year Changed

The uncomfortable feeling in Chen Sisi's heart finally answered. He had not expected that this would be related to Tianlong Heyu.

For some reason, this feeling was somewhat familiar to him. Like dejavu.

The chefs and restaurant assistants who were chatting with Chen Sisi earlier, did not know how to cheer him up. They can only say good words.

After all, it was impossible for a war king who had been respected by the enemy to simply disappear in the sea of the undead.

Chen Sisi let them return to their respective places before later making medicinal food for everyone.

Now, he wanted to calm down first. It is not good to work in a state of mind and heart is not calm.

Baiyue could only watch as the girl entered the white jade bracelet space and calmed down.

The white Persian cat meows low. "The human heart is a mystery" he murmured.

Chen Sisi's feeling slightly improved in the afternoon and inevitably, he worked overtime to make the medicinal herbs by himself.

When Baiyue saw him already busy in the kitchen, she could finally sigh in relief.

"Are you okay?"

"Yes, why not? There are still a lot of people out there still in need of help," he replied flatly.

"People are getting infected more and more. Now the survivors have been completely transferred to the underground chamber of the imperial palace."

"The palace's basement isn't big, is it?" Chen Sisi guessed.

"Indeed. But there was a vast hill that the undead did not enter there. That said, the hill was filled with a holy aura so that not a single evil being was able to penetrate through it."

Baiyue seemed to remember there was a sacred hill not far from the imperial palace. But he never came there. He said the place was ordinary. But for humans, the hill is like a place that can save them from danger.

He could not blame anyone who planted a spiritual fence there.

Could there be something on that hill?

"Don't talk about this again. Help me. Which herbs should I put in."

Chen Sisi did not want to waste much time anymore. Before the undead outbreak became widespread, he needed to make his own antidote.

Not to mention, not knowing where Zhen Zhu was. He was worried that Empress Dowager Meng was wandering around in search of prey.

Unbeknownst to Chen Sisi ....

Zhen Zhu who had long since stood outside the restaurant fence, looked cautious to pierce through the invisible array. He was surprised because the restaurant was protected by some kind of strange force that made him uncomfortable.

Of course this was all thanks to Baiyue planting it secretly. Chen Sisi material do not know. The array was only planted after Chen Sisi arrived at the restaurant.

Therefore, Baiyue was not worried that there would be undead barging in.

"What is this strange power? Do the people of this age also know about advanced defense systems?" Zhen Zhu muttered behind his big hood.

He did not know that in this age, spiritual energy was still used even though it was no longer as much as in his time. Since he was from the apocalyptic age, the era of cultivators had already eroded the ages.

Every time Zhen Zhu touched the spiritual barrier, his finger would burn slightly. It feels hot and painful.

Meanwhile, Baiyue who was standing guard at the door sensed the presence of an undead aura touching the array she made.

"Hmm? It seems that Zhen Zhu already knows my master is here," he muttered. "Unfortunately I can't do anything to interfere in human affairs. The fate of this world cannot be changed by a creature like me" he added.

"What are you muttering?" ask Chen Sisi.

Baiyue meowed lazily. "I counted how many fish I had to eat."

Just looking for an excuse.

Chen Sisi shook his head. He called out to the others to help him make food, drinks as well as antidote pills. Not only the cure, but also the prevention for those who have not been infected.

The people in the palace were also a priority. Emperor Tian had sent a letter to send a number of bidders there.

"A lot of time to spend" he murmured.

Don't know how Tianlong Heyu is doing right now.

Hopefully ... the man is fine. Didn't you promise to come back before your birthday?

However Chen Sisi did not suspect if ....

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Time passes very quickly.

The capital and several other areas of Tiankong country did not look as clean and prosperous as before.

There are many refugees and people who need help.

The restaurant that Chen Sisi had built was full of many people lining up. All the waiters and cooks are so busy every day that they almost manage a fatty stomach.

"Princess Chen, there is news from the palace,” reports the dark guard who appeared not far behind him.

“What news?”

“Crown prince has disappeared.”

“Dia too?”

It seemed that Chen Sisi was not surprised to learn the news. Lately, a lot of people have disappeared. All are random people. And Tianlong Zhaobin— as the crown prince, acting strangely over the past few months.

Chen Sisi let out a long sigh and stopped the activity of concocting his medicinal food. He saw his brother who was helping to serve a lot of food to many people.

Five years have passed.Tianlong Heyu has not returned. This made him very angry and upset. The man had missed his birthday several times. It even made her an unmarried woman.

Since the conditions at the border were resolved, Chen Yelang and the others returned to the capital. But there was no smile on her brother's face. And it seems to be related to the problems at the border.

And what made Chen Sisi really feel lost, Grandpa Yi who had been taking care of him all this time turned out to sacrifice himself for the safety of the entire army at the border. He died without regret after saving Chen Yelang from the bite of the undead.

“Tell the emperor to be careful. Perhaps Zhen Zhu has already started allowing the crown prince to occupy the dragon seat (throne).”

“Ya.” The dark guard was gone.

Before long, Chen Yelang came back after the dispensed medicinal food had already run out. He looked worried about Chen Sisi's slightly pale state.

“Xiaosi, rest for a while. You've been doing all this for a few days without enough rest."

Chen Sisi knew that his body was exhausted. But he can't stop now. There are still a lot of people who need their medicinal dishes.

Anyway, it's not noon yet. He planned to sleep for a while after the soup in the pot ran out.

"Sister, I'm fine. I'll rest later" he said.

Chen Yelang knew that he could not persuade her further. "You're still the same as you were five years ago."

It had been five years since Tianlong Heyu disappeared, Chen Sisi had devoted all his energy and mind to making medicinal dishes.

If not for Baiyue's prevention and advice, he might have already gone to the border and looked for the man.

Chen Sisi, who is in his twenties, has missed his best marriage age in this age.
