Chapter 67: Where Is The Ghost Right Now? (3)
The Former Wife of Invisible Wealthy Man
âQi Xian, baby, as long as you remain so handsome, you donât need to learn how to cook. I can do it for you in the future!â
Because of Qi Xianâs appearance, in a flash, everyone forgot Ye Suiâs strange move just now.
By the time the royal meal was served in the evening, Ye Sui had already gotten enough ingredients to stir-fry a table of dishes. Qi Xian, even if he had more ingredients, could only make a tomato scrambled egg.
Gao Yue, Wen Xiang, and Song Bai, who had honed their basic cooking skills, after making two dishes, glanced at Ye Sui as she busied herself with the soup in the pan and continued to cook and stir-fry.
Several of them saw what they had made and were a bit overwhelmed.
When the emperor arrived, a table was already prepared in front of Ye Sui. A eunuch placed each guestâs dishes into a small plate and handed them to the emperor sitting over there.
The emperorâs beard had been stuck in the morning and was about to fall off after so long. While eating, he held it by his hand: âWho made this dish?â

âReporting to the emperor, it was Song Bai.â
Yet, the emperor was furious: âExpel her from the palace!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The guests smiled at the furious emperor, who was deeply submerged in the play. They didnât feel nervous at all.
âThere was something wrong with the dishes of imperial chef Qi Xian, which poisoned the old eunuch around the emperor,â the eunuch declared. âThe emperor ordered that the imperial chef will not be sentenced to death. Instead, he will be exiled to Nanjing and never return to the capital.â
Qi Xianâs dish was so unpalatable that it caused food poisoning.
â...â
âThe best chef in the world is Ye Sui. The emperor bestows her with a golden kitchen knife. Only her dishes were top-grade, and othersâ were inedible.â
Ye Sui received the golden kitchen knife. The champion was indeed convincing, and everyone applauded.
The program ended in laughter. Ye Sui sat in front of the car, Qi Xianâs father still following her.
Seeing his pitiful eyes, Ye Sui told Qi Xian before leaving that she knew his father.

Qi Xianâs body became obviously stiff. He stood there, shocked, and looked at Ye Sui before being pulled away by the assistant. When he got in his car, he was still in a trance.
When Ye Sui arrived at the hotel, she received a WeChat message from Qi Xian: âI will come to see you later.â
Chen Shu waited for Ye Sui in the room and saw her come in. He quietly turned off the video conference. At the end of the meeting, Chen Shu, who had waited for her all day, seemed to be in a good mood.
Ye Sui told him what happened in Yingshi World Studios. She had brought Qi Xianâs fatherâs ghost back to the hotel.
Chen Shu: âWhere is the ghost right now?â
âItâs next to you,â Ye Sui said
After a while, there was a knock on the door, and Ye Sui opened it. Qi Xian had come alone. He didnât bring his assistant, and his face was wrapped tightly.
After Qi Xian came in, the trio people sat around the table. In the dark room, the curtains were closed; the overhead lights were dim; and the atmosphere was gloomy.
âHave you ever heard of supernatural power?â Ye Sui suddenly spoke. Her voice lingered in the quiet room, making every inch of air eerie.
Qi Xian: ???
He felt that he had strayed into an evil cult, and their leader, Ye Sui, was sitting upright in front of him with a serious expression, bluffing people one by one.
âThis is...?â Qi Xian looked at Chen Shu and curiously asked.
The man beside Ye Sui had even better facial features than a celebrity. Moreover, he had an unperturbed look, as if Ye Suiâs behavior was as per usual.
âHe is my...â Ye Sui paused for a few seconds and thought of an excuse. âAssistant in the supernatural activity.â
Ye Sui and Qi Xian hadnât known each other for long, so she couldnât expose her married life. If he accidentally blurted it out, itâd be over.
The next second, Ye Sui noticed a layer of sadness in Chen Shuâs eyes.
The world was so big and full of surprises. Qi Xian, who never believed in ghosts, looked at Ye Sui, a female celebrity who could communicate with them, sitting in front of him. She had even hired an assistant.
However, Qi Xian could discern that the relationship between Ye Sui and Chen Shu was not so simple.
These two, with an unusual aura, were like a wandering couple who were adept at swindling and cheating others.
