When Grandma was talking, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili switched their positions. They leaned against the sofa and took turns massaging Grandma’s shoulders.
The tiny streaks of Nature Essence followed through the meridians into Grandma’s body and made her feel refreshed. “These two girls’ massage techniques are extremely good!”
“Okay, okay, you guys take such good care of me, but I don’t have anything to repay you with.” even though it was comfortable for her, Grandma still held their arms to stop them.
“Taijun, you are the reincarnation of the god of luck, and you ought to enjoy life and be happy,” Lu Linlin said gently.
“You two girls keep on flattering me.” Grandma took their hands softly and dragged them in front of her.
During this period, the Lu sisters got familiar with Grandma. Grandma treated them as granddaughters, and they also took care of Grandma attentively.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili fell in the arms of Grandma and made her laugh in joy.
In contrast, Hao Ren was ignored on the side.
“Ren, why are you blanking out? Go make dinner,” suddenly Grandma looked up and urged Hao Ren.
“Oh, okay,” Hao Ren walked toward the kitchen and suddenly thought, “Wait a minute! How did my status become the lowest all of a sudden?”
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were talking and laughing with Grandma in the living room. Hao Ren walked into the kitchen, grabbed all sorts of ingredients from the refrigerator, pondered for a while about what dishes to make, and got busy.
The sea was right beside the house, and the East Ocean Dragon Palace was hidden in there.
Hao Ren’s house was close to the Dragon Palace.
Hao Ren thought of these random things while cooking.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili came to the smoky kitchen and went behind Hao Ren’s back. “Gongzi!”
Hao Ren, who was cooking, shivered. He turned around to look at them and saw them smirking at him.
“Hey! Don’t scare me!” Hao Ren glared at them.
They lowered their head as if they were admitting their mistakes. However, they looked up and walked close to him within a few seconds. “We’ll help, Gongzi!”
“Do you know how?” Hao Ren looked at them suspiciously.
They shook their heads, “No!”
Hao Ren sighed.
They took another half step forward and stood beside Hao Ren. “We can learn how to cook from Gongzi!”
Hao Ren’s cooking skill was very limited; all he could do was make food that was edible and average in taste. His cooking skill couldn’t be comparable to Zhao Hongyu’s or Xie Yujia’s.
Seeing Hao Ren not replying, they stood on the sides and watched him.
“So, you must put oil to fry then add water.”
“That’s how you cut the meat. I almost cut my finger last time and that hurt so much.”
“Use low heat to cook. You can’t turn it all the way up.”
Hao Ren began to sweat from the heat coming from the natural gas stove, and the Lu sisters were discussing and learning at the same time.
“I’ll teach you two how to make this soup.” Hao Ren turned around and looked at them.
The two girls widened their eyes joyfully.
Seeing their pure and silly expressions, Hao Ren couldn’t stifle his laughter. “Turn to medium heat and put in the meat first.”
“Um, um!” Lu Linlin went up and placed the meat slices that Hao Ren cut into the pot.
“Then put vegetables in and add the seasoning and salt,” Hao Ren instructed.
Lu Lili dropped the vegetables in clumsily.
Both of them were curious about everything and were quick learners.
“For salt, only put a little bit. Don’t put too much,” seeing Lu Lili tilt the salt container, Hao Ren hurriedly held onto her palm.
Lu Lili blushed and nodded obediently. Under Hao Ren’s instruction, she poured out a bit of salt.
Hao Ren held her slim hand, and he felt like he was grabbing a smooth jade.
“You can’t add that, it’s pepper powder!” seeing that Lu Linlin was about to dump the pepper powder in, Hao Ren reached out and grabbed Lu Linlin’s hand.
Lu Linlin put the pepper bottle down, smiled at Hao Ren, and looked at him with her pretty eyes. “I thought Gongzi likes my little sister. It seemed like you didn’t want to let go of her hand.”
“Sis…” Lu Lili called out gently. The blush on her face was even more apparent.
“Well, Gongzi is holding my hand now,” Lu Linlin giggled happily and said.
Hao Ren looked at her helplessly and moved her hand away. He thought she didn’t know the seasonings, but she took advantage of the situation and teased him.
“Gongzi, my sister and I will sleep over tonight,” Lu Linlin looked at Hao Ren with a smirk and said.
“As long as you guys don’t go wild, you can stay wherever you want,” Hao Ren tapped Lu Linlin’s forehand with his finger. He couldn’t act as a ‘Gongzi,’ and that was why Lu Linlin and Lu Lili became more and more mischievous.
“How do I take the steamed fish out?” Lu Lili ran to the steamer and asked.
“Use the cloth and be careful of the heat,” Hao Ren reminded.
He took out two pieces of wet cloth, put them in Lu Lili’s hands, and taught her how to get the plate out without touching the pot.
Hao Ren’s front chest touched Lu Lili’s back, and the side of their faces almost touched. Lu Linlin giggled as she stirred the meat soup and dipped the tips of a pair of chopsticks into the soup before putting the tips into her mouth to taste the flavor.
Everyone seemed to be having a good time in the hot and steamy kitchen.
Standing outside of the glass door of the kitchen, Grandma looked inside with confusion and strolled back to the living room.
Lying on the sofa leisurely, Grandma turned on the television and chose the channel with Chinese opera. She thought proudly, “Who said our Ren has no luck with girls?”
After ten minutes, Hao Ren brought out the finished dishes from the kitchen with the assistance of the relaxed and happy Lu Linlin and the nervous and cautious Lu Lili.
His cooking still wasn’t as great as Zhao Hongyu’s, but as long as he spent time and cooked patiently, the taste wouldn’t be worse than small restaurants.
Grandma was extremely pleased to be eating the meal that her grandson cooked with two beautiful girls accompanying her. The atmosphere was lively, and elderlies usually liked that.
“Taijun, try this!”
“We took out the fish bones for you.”
“I’ll get you some soup and cool it down for you!”
Even though Lu Linlin and Lu Lili didn’t know how to cook, they were very good at serving Grandma during the meal!
Grandma never experienced this type of care and felt like she was the old lady from a prestige family. She didn’t need to do anything since the two considerate and smart girls would have everything taken care of!
Grandma was already soft-hearted, and her mind started to change after getting closer to the Lu sisters.
“Zi is cute, Yujia is considerate and sensible, and Linlin and Lili are even more well-behaved…”
As if Grandma’s mind was filled with honey, she felt like everything she ate was delicious and sweet! The days when she was lonely seemed to be gone once and for all!
While they were eating happily at the house, Zeng Yitao, who still had a light scar on his neck, led the 16 senior elders of West Ocean and flew toward the house by the beach!
“Capture that old woman! I’ll see what he dares to do next!” Zeng Yitao summoned his golden spear and yelled as he clenched his teeth.
