“Go out and wait. What can I do with so many people here?” Leng Ruoxue looked at the expectant faces in front of her and couldn’t help but feel a headache. These gluttons only knew how to eat every day.
“Okay, let’s go. Little girl, take your time. We’re not in a hurry!” The old man quickly coaxed her when he saw that she was angry. Ever since he sent Li Yuan and the others away, he almost regarded the general’s mansion as his home. Except for not sleeping here at night, he basically spent the rest of his time here.
“Old Leng, let’s go. Don’t affect Ruoxue’s mood when she’s cooking,” Lin Liang said understandingly.
“Tch!” Leng Qingtian and the old man looked at Lin Liang with contempt. He was the one who led the way just now, and now he was pretending to be a good person?
“Xue’er, let me help you!” Freak, who had been standing quietly by the side, couldn’t help feeling a little heartbroken seeing everyone leave. Boohoo… My poor Xue’er has actually become the cook of these people!
“No need. Stay there obediently,” Leng Ruoxue said while cutting vegetables. In fact, if she could make those old men temporarily forget about that big trouble Xu Xing by using food, it would be worth it even if she had to work a little harder.
“Okay.” Freak was very obedient and stayed by the side like an obedient child. He didn’t dare to disturb Xue’er and just kept staring at her with his bright and shiny eyes very attentively.
“Freak, get them in to carry out the dishes!” Leng Ruoxue ordered after half an hour.
“There’s no need. We’re here.” The few old men poked their heads in from the kitchen window with a smile.
The old men each carried the two dishes out of the kitchen tacitly without Leng Ruoxue’s instructions.
Leng Ruoxue and Freak followed them to the dining room.
“Hurry up and eat!” Leng Qingtian said after everyone was seated.
Leng Qingtian was about to pick up a piece of fish with his chopsticks when two people beat him to it. Just as he was going to threaten them, he found that the whole fish was gone…
“You…” Leng Qingtian glared at the old man and Lin Liang, who were gnawing on half the fish each. He was so angry that he couldn’t speak. These two old fellows are too fast. I was just a little slower, and the whole fish disappeared…
“This fish is really delicious!” After eating the fish, the old man licked his fingers reluctantly and sighed.
“Of course it’s delicious!” Leng Qingtian rolled his eyes at the old man in displeasure. The fish was from the Heaven and Earth Bracelet, and there was none in this world. It would be strange if it wasn’t delicious.
“Grandpa, if you don’t eat quickly, the other dishes will be gone,” Leng Ruoxue reminded helplessly. Why are they so exaggerated? Every meal is like a world war.
Hearing this, Leng Qingtian stopped talking and focused on his favorite dishes.
After a satisfying dinner, everyone sat in the garden, enjoying tea and chatting under the moonlight.
“These days are really good!” the old man said with emotion. Of course, the premise was that there was no such big trouble as Xu Xing.
“Old man, shouldn’t you be returning to the palace?” Leng Ruoxue reminded. It was getting late, but the old man was in no hurry to leave today. How strange.
“Little girl, are you chasing this old man away? Boohoo… Someone actually despises me. I’m really too pitiful,” the old man said with a sad face. He even pretended to raise his arm and wipe his tears with his sleeve.
“We are always being driven away by Junior Aunt. You will get used to it,” Guo Yong said sympathetically, as if he had found a comrade-in-arms.
“You two are quite pitiful,” the old man said sympathetically, as if he had found a bosom buddy.
“Do you regret not having met sooner?” Leng Ruoxue asked in bewilderment. These two are really…
“No, no,” Guo Yong and the old man quickly denied and looked at Leng Ruoxue cautiously.
“Well, that’s a pity. I thought you two would be a good match,” Leng Ruoxue said with a look of pity and disappointment.
“Match for what? We’re not a match for anything.” The two immediately jumped away from each other as if the other was a virus.
“Match as friends! What else do you think it is?” The smile on Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful face was so dazzling and touching. Moreover, her face was full of innocence, but her words were so evil that they let people’s imaginations run wild.
“Little girl, you tricked us!” the old man complained aggrievedly, as if Leng Ruoxue had done something unforgivable.
“Junior Aunt, you are too evil. How can you bully your disciple-nephew?” Guo Yong also complained. One word was written in his shrewd black eyes: wronged!
“Haha, old man, how can you be a match for Ruoxue!” Lin Liang gloated, beaming from ear to ear!
“Brat Lin, how dare you laugh at this old man! Do you want to die?!” The old man unceremoniously vented his anger on Lin Liang. Hmph! He couldn’t bear to hit or scold that girl, but Lin Liang? Of course he wouldn’t be polite!
“Hmph! You only know how to bully the weak and fear the strong!” Lin Liang said disdainfully. But to be honest, if he really fought with this old man, he might not be able to beat him.
“So what? Bite me!” the old man roared provocatively.
“Continue bickering. I’m going to bed,” Leng Ruoxue said softly to the two of them. Then she stood up and left the garden. Freak naturally followed Xue’er wherever she went.
“Alright, stop acting. Xue’er is going back to her room.” Leng Qingtian looked at the two who were still at daggers drawn.
“We weren’t acting,” the two of them said in unison. Then they turned their heads at the same time and ignored each other.
“Come on, Xue’er isn’t here. Who are you acting for?!” Leng Qingtian exposed them, but he was also quite touched.
