The Villain’s Wife 494 Golden Voice of China

After Lily’s conversation with Jun Liang, she immediately went to her hotel room so she could prepare for their flight back to Hong Kong. Lily still had plans for the old man. But for now, she chose to go back to Hong Kong so Zhou Jingren can take care of his company.

"I am going to spend this time learning how to cook!" Lily declared the moment they arrived in Sky City. "I am buying lots of cookbooks today or tomorrow." She added. It was still six in the morning and Lily decided to spend the rest of today sleeping while Zhou Jingren planned to go to his office to attend to some paper works.

"I thought you want to learn martial arts and using some weapons? What was it that you said? Knives and swords?" He chuckled.

"Knives and guns." She took off her shoes and sashayed her way into their bedroom as Zhou Jingren carried their luggage. "I want to learn how to shoot guns... I mean... I know how to shoot but you know... I want to actually hit something."

"I can give you private lessons if you want. But today is Monday. I have to go to the office. Maybe we can do martial arts every morning, then learn how to shoot during weekends?" amusement flashed in his eyes as he watched Lily fell into the bed. "Change your clothes before you sleep. I will go ahead and make us some breakfast."

"No-" Lily shoot up, she looked at her husband and smiled. "As I said... I am learning how to cook. I will make breakfast. You take a bath and prepare for work." Before Zhou Jingren could say something, Lily ran out of their room, a smile plastered all over her face.

For breakfast, Lily decided to make her own version of English breakfast with bacon, egg, toasts, some mushrooms, and tomatoes. Of course, she chose this because it was easy to make and she was confident that she could easily pull it off.

After thirty minutes, Lily was already beaming. She was able to finish everything in thirty minutes! Wasn’t she a genius?

"Smells good!" Zhou Jingren said when he entered the kitchen. He was already wearing his suit.

"It tastes good too!" she smiled. "I am a hundred percent sure that you will like it." Of course, Zhou Jingren will always like it. She was sure that this man would even eat poison if she tells him too. "Alright... let’s start eating." Lily’s eyes sparkled as she started eating the scrambled egg that she made based on Gordon Ramsay’s recipe.

"Hmmm... It is very good." Zhou Jingren immediately smiled. "You are definitely improving."

"Thank you! As I said... I will buy cookbooks maybe tomorrow or this afternoon if I am not too tired to shop around. Do you think... I should enroll in some lessons?"

"No. It’s fine. You are smart. I’m sure you can do it without anyone teaching you."

"I am not as smart as you." She pouted before smiling. "But alright... I also agree with you. I don’t think I need to go to international cooking schools. I should become a proud home cook!"

Lily and Zhou Jingren immediately finished their food before Zhou Jingren bid Lily goodbye so he could go to his office. He also told Lily that he might come home a little later tonight as he needs to meet some of his executives from the US.

After Zhou Jingren left, Lily spent the whole morning sleeping. She then woke up around ten and decided to make lunch for Zhou Jingren. Again, Lily chose another simple dish that she knew he would love to eat. She then asked Yang Mi to have someone drive her over to Zhou Jingren’s office.

"Why are you the one driving me to his office?" Lily immediately asked when she saw that Yang Mi was the one sitting on the driver’s seat. As Daohu was severely injured because of the previous incident, Lily had to ask Zhou Jingren to give her a new driver and bodyguard. However, the latter said that he still needed to choose an honest bodyguard that he could trust.

"President Zhou said that I should act as your driver for the time being. He said your new driver will arrive next week. He is from Japan." Yang Mi said. She does not really mind being Lily’s driver.

Lily pursed her lips as she got into the car. "Then can you go with me shopping later?" She watched as Yang Mi nodded. "Are you not busy assisting Cathy?" she asked.

"Your safety is still my topmost priority." Yang Mi answered. "Also... President Zhou asked me to teach you about knives? He said he is not an expert on the matter."

"Right... I remember that you are a martial arts expert too, right?"

"Jujitsu and karate." Yang Mi answered. "It was one of the requirements that Lilian set.

"Then... can you practice with me? I mean... Zhou Jingren agreed to teach me some martial arts, but he has a company to run. So he can’t really stay the whole day."She beamed. "But you can! You know what? I will call Cathy later and tell her about this plan."

Yang Mi immediately nodded. She would not mind teaching Lily the things that she knew. After all, her priority is still Lily’s safety. "I have searched for that singer that you told me? Miss Liang’s mother, Miss Chen," she said.

"Tell me more."

"The woman had been divorced twice. Both amicable. She’s clean, and she is receiving money from both ex-husbands. She is currently on her third marriage. She only had two children from her first marriage that’s Timothy Liang and Demi Liang. Her records are clean — too clean. No issue’s whatsoever. She is one of the most sought after singers, even when she is already more than fifty years old. She is known as the Golden Voice of China and is considered the goddess of a lot of singers in the country. She is working on having her own recording studio with her husband, Anthony — Tony Zhang."

"Too clean you say?" Lily asked.

"Hmmm... her records are too clean it is almost as if... it was not true."
