Zuko looked increasingly frustrated as Chris remained perplexed, prompting several exasperated eye rolls.

While Zuko cleaned the kitchen, Chris followed closely, asking, “Why did you tell me to shoot her? That’s not like

you at all, without reason!

“Is there something bothering you? Did she offend you in some way?

“But, Zuko, that doesn’t add up. You don’t hold grudges over trivial matters, especially not with a young girl!

“Zuko, what’s—”

“Enough!” Zuko’s frustration turned his face red, and he growled, “Just get back to work!”

Chris was taken aback. He scratched his head and offered a friendly smile, even though he didn’t quite understand

the situation.

Chris efficiently handled all the dirty and tiring work throughout the kitchen cleanup, thanks to his military

background and cleaning skills.

“When I first joined the army, I was assigned to the mess hall.” Chris laughed.

Zuko raised an eyebrow. “Then why didn’t you stick with that?”

“I was ambitious back then, focused on becoming a real special forces soldier. I wasn’t happy with the assignment

but couldn’t openly voice my dissatisfaction, so I wrote it all down…

“Little did I know, a comrade discovered my notes and reported it to the higher-ups. That’s how I got the chance to

become a sniper.”

Zuko chuckled. “If that comrade of yours hadn’t talked so much, you might have become a five-star chef by now!

We could’ve offered you a position at Splendor Hotel!”

Chris playfully grabbed a ladle, threatening to hit him. “I swear, you’re becoming more and more like your brother!”

Zuko smirked. Marriage had changed him. He used to be reserved and serious, but now he cracked jokes and felt

like a different person.

As Chris finished cleaning, he leaned against the refrigerator to chat.

“Speaking of writing secrets down…” He glanced around and then whispered, “I’ve made a significant discovery!”

“What is it?”

Chris gestured outside. “I’ve noticed Lena has a habit of writing in a diary.”

“Huh?” Zuko blinked. “How do you know that? Did you sneak a peek at her diary?”

“No way.” Chris glared at him. “I accidentally found that diary! Once, when I visited the Thompsons, I discovered a

notebook in the courtyard. It looked pretty old and had a lock on it! Later, I saw her rushing into the yard, searching

for something. I figured she must be looking for that notebook.

“I was afraid of annoying her, so I put the notebook back where I found it and quickly found a hiding spot!”

Zuko couldn’t help but chuckle at this.

Chris faced deadly enemies without batting an eye, yet he was actually afraid of Lena?

Zuko patted his shoulder, giving him a knowing look. “But how can you be sure it’s a diary?”

Chris thought for a moment, then chuckled. “Even if it’s not a diary, it probably contains something very important

to her.”

“It might have something to do with you,” Zuko said,

“Huh?”

Chris was caught off guard, and his ears involuntarily turned red.

Zuko had just finished arranging the plates when he noticed Chris seemed lost in thought.

Zuko waved his hand. “Hey, what’s wrong?”

“Oh… nothing.”

“When I said ‘it might have something to do with you’, I was just talking randomly. You took it seriously?” Zuko

teased.

“Zuko Hamerton!”

The two men were like a pair of perpetually young boys, making a ruckus in the kitchen again.

At that moment, the kitchen door swung open with a bang.

Both of them froze simultaneously. When they saw Lena’s icy expression at the door, Chris quickly lowered his

head, pretending to be busy with cleaning.
