Food is the best weapon against Yang Ming. As his older sister, I know this super well. He only ever listens to me when I hold his food hostage. I'm sure Lolidragon will soon discover this piece of truth, though maybe I should give her some pointers to help their relationship along. I made a note to myself to do just that the next time I logged on.

In the mornings, my brother expects me to make breakfast for him, that lazy bum. I wonder when I'll ever get to taste something he makes, huh? No matter, I actually like chopping and dicing and slicing (no wonder it feels so great to be Prince. I even get to do it outside the kitchen).

I don't make him lunch all the time - I'm not his maid or anything. He can go buy lunch. In fact, he should buy lunch for me too! Every day to repay me for all the homemade meals I've made him! Yeah, that sounds like a plan...

In the evenings, I of course make dinner. I come back all tired and worn out from lecture, so the logical thing is, of course, heading to the kitchen to release some stress. Even if he wanted to make me dinner, no way, the kitchen's my territory, so hands off.

Sometimes though, just sometimes, I get really fed up with how he thinks it's a given that I should be making him food, but other times, I'm quite gleeful over the fact that I'm pretty much in control of the household because I control the food. I mean, it's totally up to me whether I serve his favorite dishes or some disgusting snails instead (though snails are really too good for him). Yang Ming sure learned early on not to piss me off.

I nodded happily. Yup, I had my brother trained well.

Hee! First person narrative!

"He only ever listens to me when I hold his food hostage."
Or change it to look like someone's brain. X3

"I actually like chopping and dicing and slicing (no wonder it feels so great to be Prince. I even get to do it outside the kitchen)."
XDD Yuuuup.

"so the logical thing is, of course, heading to the kitchen to release some stress."
And then she relieves more stress by playing Second Life. XD

Aaaaaaaahahaha! That last line! That last line! *laughs some more*

This was me jumping styles way too much. XD; But I guess this was still the same "style" with italics and parentheses and all that...that I've been using for these recent fics, just in... 1st person instead.

LOL!

Ahhhh, it would be fun if someone recognized Lan as Prince (or vice versa) from watching her in the kitchen. XD

Haha, exactly. XD; Food can only put up so much resistance. She needs something more durable and able to fight back. XD; My brain then thinks of Gui. Poor Gui. (Lan: This is for all the stress you gave me in class!!) But monsters should be more satisfying since she can hack at them...

It's like training cats or dogs. Food works the best!

This is a very great chapter! *thumbs up*

So she is cooking (chopping, dicing, slicing, etc) to release some stress huh? kinda reminded me of myself. I used to hate to have to cook for my brother, but lately, i have an itch to cook by myself. Especially the 'chopping' part, it feels so good. And the 'sizzling' sound it made is also relaxing!

Love the way you portray Feng Lan!

Hehe, all that chopping, dicing, and slicing! I imagine that's her favorite part of cooking! Ahaha, and add a nice, sizzling sound~~ That must be relaxing!
