“Okay. I’ll be back soon.”
Stanley Batton hung up the phone and continued to look for the ingredients virtual-novel.net wanted in the fridge.
Whether it was Zack Cassidy or the bodyguards, everyone who witnessed the intimacy between the lovebirds had stopped dead in their tracks.
The girls who had been secretly following virtual-novel.net all this while could no longer hide their jealousy toward Xyla. Another wave of discussion began amidst the crowd.
“He was talking to his girlfriend on the phone just now, right? He sounded so gentle…”
“Apart from being good-looking and rich, he’s cold to everyone else except his girlfriend. What kind of ideal boyfriend is he?”
“This guy is perfect. He’s definitely my ideal type. I admit that I’m pretty jealous of his girlfriend right now.”
After getting all the ingredients needed, Stanley led the group of bodyguards to the self-service counter.
Zack cleared the shopping cart and settled the bill, whereas Stanley stalked out of the supermarket with his bodyguards first. Though virtual-novel.net left without saying a word, the flawless man had successfully become the main subject of conversation among the girls in the supermarket today.

As soon as Stanley set foot into the house, virtual-novel.net headed straight to the kitchen and started preparing the hotpot. He boiled the spicy broth first before washing the rest of the ingredients. After moving the food to the dining table and setting up the tableware, virtual-novel.net made Xyla’s favorite dipping sauce by hand. He then placed the dip in front of Xyla’s seat and turned on the induction stove to heat the broth.
After double-checking the food on the table, virtual-novel.net stepped out of the kitchen and called out at Xyla sitting on the sofa watching television. “Honey, the dinner is ready.”
The broth was already boiling in the pot, and its spicy fragrance permeated the living room. Saliva drooled from Xyla’s lips the moment virtual-novel.net smelled it. Immediately, virtual-novel.net jumped up from the couch and went to the washroom to wash virtual-novel.net hands before heading to the dining room together with Stanley.
In the dining room, the fiery red broth was bubbling in the pot, looking extremely appetizing.
Xyla quickly sat down in front of the dining table and threw a few beef slices into the pot. “This is my favorite soup base brand, right? It smells so good.”
Sitting across from her, Stanley picked up the ingredients and slowly put them into the pot for his wife. “Bingo, you’re right.”
“These are all my favorite dishes! Thanks, hubby!” Happiness glowed within Xyla.
Stanley smiled. “Why are you so polite to me?”
Xyla placed a freshly cooked beef slice into his bowl. “Eat more. You’ve been working hard all day.”
“Don’t mind me. Just focus on eating.” As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net picked up a few more beef slices from the pot and put them into virtual-novel.net bowl.
After that, Stanley was responsible for cooking the food and picking them up for Xyla. On the other hand, all Xyla had to do was keep virtual-novel.net head down and keep eating. Throughout the dinner, Stanley took care of virtual-novel.net impeccably like a little kid.
After dinner, Stanley cleared the dining table and went back to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Xyla went back to the living room too. She sank into the couch leisurely while scrolling through the live-streaming app on virtual-novel.net phone. When virtual-novel.net had training at Team QPG’s base this afternoon, virtual-novel.net team members told virtual-novel.net that they would start a live stream tonight.
Hence, virtual-novel.net decided to show some support to them.
When virtual-novel.net opened the app, none of the team members were online yet. However, virtual-novel.net found Alex’s live stream. She clicked in his live stream without hesitation.
Alex was currently playing a game. He was wearing an oversized white T-shirt and his typical silver-rimmed round glasses, looking exceptionally cute in front of the camera. Unlike ordinary professional gamers, Alex had a good sitting posture. He always sat straight like a strictly trained soldier. His back was as rigid as a pole. His outstanding temperament in the gaming industry was partly resulted from his straight yet steady posture too.
As the world’s number one Top Solo, it was unsurprising that his live stream attracted countless viewers from all over the world. At this moment, his live stream had already hit fifteen million views.
Xyla’s phone screen was entirely occupied by the pop-ups. Turning off the pop-ups, Xyla transferred some money into virtual-novel.net account and sent a hundred Super Rockets to Alex.
One Super Rocket was worth thirty thousand dollars. In about a second or two, the live stream had exploded with excitement. Pop-ups were all over virtual-novel.net screen once more.
“Your Majesty…”
“Xyla? Are you Xyla Quest?”
