Conan: I own a Chinese restaurant

"Xiao Ai, listen to me, I can't always be by your side to protect you"

"You must have enough strength to protect yourself."

Xiaochen persuaded Xiaoai earnestly, stroking her soft brown hair.

His strength is linked to his cooking skills. The stronger his cooking skills are, the stronger his strength will be.

The improvement of this devil fruit is not important to him at all. At most, it can only be regarded as an additional means of freezing and elementalization. It is okay to use it to make dishes that need to be frozen, but it seems a bit useless in other aspects.

He almost spent all his exchange points to buy this. He felt so sorry for him, but Xiaoai didn't even want it.

"I said no, do you still want me, a girl, to protect you?"

Xiao Ai was very arrogant, she just didn't want to eat.

As for strength, she was not surprised at all.

And she felt that with Xiaochen around, no one could hurt her.

It would be better to give it to Xiaochen, and then provide Xiaochen with strength.

"Xiao Ai! Do you want to eat it?"

Xiao Ai has been doing this to Xiao Chen for a long time, and Xiao Chen is a little unhappy.

This frozen fruit is what Xiao Chen has been thinking about for a long time, and it is the most suitable for Xiao Ai.

This thing is useless for him to use, and it will not improve much. Only when it is given to Xiao Ai can it have the best effect.

"Why don't you eat it yourself?"

"Do you think it's fun to push everything onto me?"

"Are you supporting your wife or your daughter?"

"I don't need you to take care of me to this extent!"

Xiaochen was unhappy, and Xiaoai was also angry.

It seemed that she had been a little well-behaved these few days, so Xiaochen began to take advantage of her?

Did he really think she wanted to be a child? Didn't Xiaochen raise her as a child?

Again, are you raising a wife or a daughter?

Xiaochen was silent...

How did he raise Xiaoai?

It seemed that he was just like what Xiaoai said, raising her too much, so that Xiaoai herself felt a little breathless.

In Xiaochen's impression, shouldn't girls prefer the feeling of being cared for like this?

He was not very clear about this.

Maybe he could change it in the future. Does he seem a little restrained with his wife?

Or is it that Xiaoai now looks like a child, and it is impossible to associate her with the beautiful genius scientist Miyano Shiho when she was eighteen or nineteen years old?

So for a long time, raising a wife has become like raising a daughter.

But this time, he, a grown man, decided to be willful once.

"Sorry, Xiao Ai, maybe I haven't changed yet. I should treat you as my wife, not as a little kid."

"But you have to eat this."

"I picked this thing especially for you. I can tell you without hesitation that I spent all my belongings over the years to buy it from a mysterious being."

"There are things that cannot be bought with any amount of money, I hope you can understand!"

Xiaochen's eyes were extremely firm. Today, she had to eat it whether she wanted to or not.

Even if she didn't want it, he would force her to eat it.

His current financial strength could not afford the recipes for resurrecting people. He didn't know how far away he was from the God of Cooking. It took him several years to go from the current special chef to the half-step chef Lin.

So how about Chef Lin to Chef Long, and then from Chef Long to the God of Cooking, how long would it take him?

Is he very strong?

In terms of individual strength, he might be the strongest in the Conan world. After all, he is a cultivator.

Cultivating cooking skills.

So what about Xiaoai?

An ordinary person, can he arrive every time when he encounters danger?

This is the real world, don't make fun of me, people won't wait for you to come before they start.

This frozen fruit represents Xiaoai's safety, which is what Xiaochen values most. Today, no matter what, she must eat it!

Xiaoai just looked at Xiaochen deeply, with that extremely serious look, that unquestionable tone.

In the end, she didn't speak, but picked up the frozen fruit and took a bite silently.

"It's really unpalatable……"

Even so, Xiao Ai still swallowed the devil fruit, because she knew that she had no choice today.

This was Xiaochen's toughest time, and probably the only time.

However, when Xiao Ai was about to take a second bite, Xiaochen caught the devil fruit and threw it away.

After a while, the devil fruit withered.

Xiaochen held the puzzled Xiao Ai in his arms. He kissed her lips gently. After all, she was his wife, so a kiss on the cheek was nothing. Xiao Ai herself had an opinion.

She felt that she was not like a wife, but more like a daughter.

He still had to respond to her.

After the kiss, Xiaochen ignored her face that turned as red as an apple, and began to introduce the function of the fruit.

"This fruit is called the Frozen Fruit. It is a kind of devil fruit and tastes terrible."

"After eating it, you can gain the ability to freeze, or you can element your body and become immune to any physical attacks."

"Although it tastes bad, you only need to eat one bite to gain the ability. After the ability is absorbed by you, it will wither and turn into a complete devil fruit in your body."

Xiaochen said with a happy look on his face, as if he breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that Xiaoai would finally be safe in the future, but he didn't notice that Xiaoai's eyes were red at this moment.

He threw Xiaochen to the ground, and he felt his mouth blocked again.
