Chapter 670 - 669: Breakfast Made with Love
After Chen Tianlong returned to his room, it was already three o’clock when he finished washing up. He fell onto his bed, thinking about his recent encounters with the young lady, feeling a mix of anxiety and relief.
The young lady, Mengting, Yufan, Bingshuang, and Mengyan had all deeply entered his heart, causing him a bit of a headache.
Wu Mengting was his fiancée and he definitely had to marry her, but Li Bingshuang and Jiang Yufan, it seemed impossible to avoid them as well, especially Li Bingshuang, who was willing to dedicate her life to him.
Next morning, the first ray of sunlight shone on Chen Tianlong’s window, reflecting onto the bed. The warm feeling made him linger.
If life could be so pleasant, how wonderful it would be, free from too much struggle, without deception.
After experiencing so much, Chen Tianlong really wanted to live quietly, but life deceived him; this was only the calm before the storm.
At Pure Yang Martial Arts Hall.
After returning home, Shangguan Hong bitterly recounted his experience, causing Shangguan Ba’s eyes to widen. Who would have thought such formidable masters existed in the Mortal Realm? Shangguan Hong knew his own strength—solidly Yellow Dao five-star.
Yet he was easily defeated with a single palm, even able to parry with his mouth, something Shangguan Ba wouldn’t dare attempt.
"Everyone, don’t act rashly. I think there’s something suspicious about Chen Tianlong; it’s not as simple as we thought." Shangguan Ba evidently noticed something amiss. To say Chen Tianlong was an ordinary student, he would never believe it.
Not only could he level up quickly, but he also had such an amazing aunt; how could he be ordinary?
"Alright." Everyone thought about it and felt Shangguan Ba had a good point.
This Chen Tianlong was truly bizarre, always keeping people guessing about his true nature.
At the Lin Family Mansion, Chen Tianlong got out of bed, dressed up, and left the room. At this time, the young lady and Lu Xiaoyu were sitting in the hall, watching cartoons early in the morning.
Chen Tianlong shook his head, walked over, and sat down beside Lin Wushuang. At this time, Lin Wushuang smiled slightly, stood up, took out a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge from the nearby warming container, and placed it on the table, saying, "Chen Tianlong, eat while it’s hot."
"Huh?" Chen Tianlong was surprised again. This... this was specially prepared by the young lady?
"What ’huh’? Wushuang woke up early to make you a love-filled breakfast, and she didn’t even give me any, sobbing... so biased." Lu Xiaoyu pouted, her face full of envy, jealousy, and resentment.
"Haha." Chen Tianlong chuckled bitterly. However, since Lin Wushuang made breakfast for him, he must express something, so he quickly smiled at Lin Wushuang and said, "Thank you, young lady."
"Oh, you’re welcome. I got up with nothing to do, so I just casually made it for you." Lin Wushuang was always like this, though she had become more gentle. Her personality hadn’t changed; she wouldn’t admit her sincerity.
"Hmph, casually? Who yelled at me at five in the morning, asking how much salt to add for Chen Tianlong to like it, and what was the perfect heat? You asked till I got a headache," Lu Xiaoyu complained, evidently dissatisfied.
"Thank you, Xiaoyu and Wushuang." Chen Tianlong was somewhat moved. This was the first time the young lady made him feel so touched, it felt like home.
"Ah, Xiaoyu, stop talking, please." Lin Wushuang was a bit embarrassed. Although her intentions were genuine, saying it in front of Chen Tianlong made her feel shy.
Initially, the change in her attitude towards Chen Tianlong was so drastic that he couldn’t adapt. Now she was so considerate, how could Chen Tianlong not be scared later?
Chen Tianlong chuckled, picked up the porridge, and began tasting it, while Lin Wushuang nervously watched TV but kept glancing at Chen Tianlong’s expression. Seeing no change after a while made her increasingly anxious.
Suddenly, Chen Tianlong frowned and then took a deep breath, causing Lin Wushuang’s heart to almost jump out. She thought, what does Chen Tianlong’s expression mean? Was there too much salt, making it taste awful?
"Wow, this is delicious! Young lady, your culinary skills have surpassed mine!" Chen Tianlong suddenly praised.
"Huh?" Even Lin Wushuang couldn’t believe it. Chen Tianlong actually praised her, making her instantly blush, secretly pleased inside but still pretending to be calm as she said, "Oh, it’s not as good as you said. You’re exaggerating."
"Haha, really. You don’t believe me; try a bite yourself." Chen Tianlong said and handed the bowl of porridge over.
At this moment, Lin Wushuang strangely wanted to taste it because it was Chen Tianlong’s leftovers. Recalling how she felt disgusted eating his leftovers before, now she strongly wanted to eat them—it was quite strange.
"Oh, you ate it, I don’t want your saliva."
"Tianlong, I want some, I want some."
"..."
Chen Tianlong sighed inwardly. Xiaoyu, why are you joining the fun? I’m building a relationship with Wushuang here, okay?
"Xiaoyu, you can’t eat it. If anyone’s eating, it’s me."
Seeing Lu Xiaoyu eager to eat, Lin Wushuang quickly reached over and grabbed Chen Tianlong’s bowl, taking a bite. But after tasting it, she couldn’t believe it herself; she actually cooked the preserved egg porridge so deliciously this time.
"Isn’t it? Young lady, your cooking has improved a lot." Chen Tianlong smiled and praised again.
"Oh, it’s alright." Lin Wushuang suppressed the excitement in her heart, calmly said, then handed the porridge back to Chen Tianlong.
Chen Tianlong didn’t say anything else and focused on finishing his breakfast. School was about to start, and he had many things to do. If not for the young lady, he might have directly gone back to Sakata Town.
"Wushuang, Xiaoyu, after breakfast, I’m going to Lotus Village for a while; I have unfinished business there and will return in a couple of days."
Chen Tianlong felt a bit embarrassed, as it was rare to come back home and had no chance to take the two girls out to play before he had to leave.
"Oh, going home again?" Lu Xiaoyu, being expressive, showed disappointment right away.
"Yes, but I’ll only be back for two days, then I’ll bring Mo Jing over and can play with you." Chen Tianlong comforted.
"Great, I miss Mo Jing a bit. Haven’t had a chance to pinch her chubby cheeks in a while." Lu Xiaoyu said nonchalantly.
"....."
The two were speechless, realizing Lu Xiaoyu was tormenting Mo Jing.
"Haha, it’s not like what you think. I just pinch lightly; after all, little girls are cute and irresistible." Lu Xiaoyu explained hastily seeing Chen Tianlong and Lin Wushuang’s odd expressions.
Chen Tianlong chuckled and continued with breakfast.
After bidding farewell to the two girls, Chen Tianlong drove straight to Lotus Village in Sakata Town.
Just as the car approached the town, Chen Tianlong’s phone rang. He hastily pulled it from his pocket to check, displaying an incoming call from Zhang Li.
"Chen Tianlong, is that you? I’m the orphanage director Zhang Li. There’s trouble again at the orphanage; those people have arrived at the gate, and the wall has been knocked down, sobbing..."
