Chapter 531 - 168: Lu Sisi’s Path of Cultivation
Chapter 168 [Lu Sisi’s Cultivation Path](7700)
Lu Sisi walked out of the classroom with her hands holding her backpack, accompanied by a girl from her dorm, the two of them whispering softly. A tall boy tried to squeeze into their conversation, but Lu Sisi quickly lowered her head and closed her mouth.
The boy seemed to attempt several times to start a conversation with Lu Sisi, but she only responded with a word or two, or nodded and shook her head, without further expression.
As for the boy’s casual invitation to go out and have fun, Lu Sisi remained silent, leaving her roommate to handle it.
When Lu Sisi walked out of the teaching building and stepped down the stairs, she saw Chen Yan from afar, her cold expression erased in an instant, replaced by a joyful smile.
She quickly waved goodbye to her roommate and ran over excitedly.
Chen Yan was wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, looking every bit like a student. He had a smile on his face as he walked up to greet her.
Lu Sisi soon linked her arm with Chen Yan’s, affectionately tilted her head, and smiled at him.
"Why are you here?"
"Just got back from out of town, came to see you." Chen Yan smiled and reached out to push back a stray lock of hair from Lu Sisi’s forehead: "What do you want for dinner tonight?"
Lu Sisi thought seriously for a moment: "Soybean stewed pig trotters."
Chen Yan was stunned: "Huh?"
"I want soybean stewed pig trotters!" Lu Sisi’s tone was firm, while looking at Chen Yan.
"Okay!" Chen Yan laughed.
Watching Lu Sisi leave with Chen Yan, the roommate sighed, turned to the tall boy and said, "Told you it wouldn’t work, Sisi has a boyfriend."
The boy looked a bit despondent: "I..."
"Stop with the I-I-I, make it easy on yourself. Always making things difficult for yourself, aren’t you tired?" The roommate pursed her lips.
"I will try again." The boy was still a bit unwilling: "I really do like Lu Sisi."
"Whether you’re sincere or not, I don’t care." The roommate said indifferently: "The problem is, even if you’re sincere, so what? You’re sincere, doesn’t mean she has to be with you? Is your sincerity worth that much?"
With that, the roommate rolled her eyes and walked away.
Initially, she didn’t want to get involved, but if they weren’t classmates, her words might have been harsher.

Chen Yan was soaking soybeans, with a few pig trotters brought by XXFresh grocery delivery beside him.
Lu Sisi specifically wanted soybean stewed pig trotters, it’s not made by a restaurant, nor is it delivery. It’s something Chen Yan cooked himself one time when they were at home.
Actually, the taste is just average, not stunning, but passable—he’s not some natural-born chef, just learned some simple home-cooking skills while living independently.
But after Lu Sisi tasted it, she praised it endlessly, emotionally satisfied to the fullest.
At this moment, Chen Yan was standing in the kitchen, having soaked the soybeans, now preparing to deal with the chubby pig trotters. Meanwhile, Lu Sisi sat at the dining table, studying hard with books in front of her.
"It’s two weeks until the exams." Lu Sisi sighed: "If my memory was a bit better, I wouldn’t be under so much pressure."
Chen Yan smiled, ignoring his girlfriend’s school fatigue, focusing on his cooking.
Half an hour later, the soybean pig trotters were simmering in the pot, Chen Yan turned down the heat, cooked a pot of rice, looked back at Lu Sisi, who was still struggling with her books, her little face showing signs of frustration.
Chen Yan smiled gently, walked over, softly embraced her from behind, and planted a kiss on the back of her neck.
"There’s still the weekend, no rush."
"I’m not thinking of rushing." Lu Sisi playfully retorted, glancing at Chen Yan: "I don’t even want to attend this college; I’d rather drop out and follow you, but you won’t agree."
Chen Yan chuckled: "If you drop out just to be with me, your family won’t slice me with a knife."
Lu Sisi sighed: "My dad and mom wouldn’t care..."
Chen Yan thought for a moment, then softly said: "Even if others don’t care about you, I do."
He suddenly bent down, lifting Lu Sisi from her chair horizontally.
The girl let out a cry of surprise but quickly hooked her arm around Chen Yan’s neck, giggling: "But it’s still daytime! You want to..."
Chen Yan casually pointed towards the kitchen: "Soybean pig trotters are simmering, there’s still more than half an hour."
"... No way!" Lu Sisi blushed: "You always take so long..."
Seeing her blushing face, Chen Yan couldn’t help but feel a surge of affection, remaining silent, he carried Lu Sisi towards the living room.
"Hey?!" Lu Sisi exclaimed: "Not in the living room! Take me to the bedroom..."
"See? It’s you who misunderstood, thinking about such things in broad daylight!" Chen Yan feigned a stern face, then broke into laughter: "I’m not going to bother you, I just want to hold you."
Saying that, he sat with Lu Sisi on the wide sofa, the two cuddling together, Chen Yan’s fingers gently massaging her scalp.
Lu Sisi was as comfortable as a cat being petted by its owner, raising her head and squinting her eyes.
They cuddled for a while, the atmosphere growing increasingly tender, but at this moment, Lu Sisi’s phone buzzed softly.
Initially, Lu Sisi didn’t pay attention, but within a minute, it buzzed again.
