Chapter 914: Chapter 926: Mom, What’s Wrong with You? (2)
Now is not the time for the two of them to reminisce.
As for the smell.
This is simple; once the windows and doors are opened to ventilate, it’s fine.
At the same time, as soon as the two of them got their clothes on, there was the sound of a key opening the door at the entrance.
Apparently, it’s the old auntie and Xixi who have returned.
The two immediately exited the room and walked towards the entrance, it seemed they intended to open the door proactively.
However, the door was opened first.
At first glance, it was Xixi with her backpack walking in, her big eyes shining as if she already knew Lin Xi was here today. Following her was the old auntie with a considerable amount of groceries in hand.
"Mommy, Daddy!" Xixi exclaimed with bright eyes and called out smoothly.
Immediately she dashed from the doorway, spreading her little arms and hugged Xi Xiaoyi and Lin Xi’s legs.
At the doorway, as the old auntie was closing the door, she froze, "Daddy?"
She was puzzled, was that young man Xixi’s dad?
Xi Xiaoyi glanced at Lin Xi helplessly, expressing an apology.
Although in her heart she had acknowledged Lin Xi as her own, she hadn’t brought this matter into the open yet.
Moreover, accepting a woman with a child, for many people, is something they cannot accept.
Especially since Lin Xi is so young and excellent!
So, regardless of what Lin Xi said, she still felt somewhat inferior and lowly inside.
"Xixi, don’t call randomly, call uncle..." she hadn’t finished, Lin Xi interrupted, "Xixi, Daddy will hold you!"
"Let’s go to the couch over there, you tell Daddy what the teachers taught today at school?"
Then, he picked up Xiao Xi and headed towards the living room, leaving Xi Xiaoyi deeply touched.
"Auntie, cook two more bowls of rice tonight!" she said as she went forward to help the old auntie with some groceries, the two of them walking towards the kitchen.
The old auntie froze again, "Two bowls?"
Xi Xiaoyi nodded.
She understood the auntie’s surprise, after all, they only cooked half a bowl when it was just the three of them.
Now all of a sudden cooking two more bowls?
That’s quite excessive!
You have to know, there’s just one extra man?
Can men eat that much?
When her ex-husband was around, he only ate a bit more than her.
Nonetheless, Xi Xiaoyi explained, "He eats a lot!"
The old auntie was half-convinced and said no more. She always had great confidence in Xiaoxi’s words.
After putting all the groceries away, the old auntie chased her out of the kitchen.
This wasn’t due to Xiaoxi but because if she helped, the kitchen would turn into chaos.
Moreover, the old auntie had been at her home so long that she had long since regarded her as family, and likewise the old auntie saw the two as daughter and granddaughter.
Between them, there was no longer the distinction between the mistress of someone else’s home and the maid.
Once Xi Xiaoyi came out of the kitchen, seeing Xixi and Lin Xi happily chatting, she walked slowly, her face unconsciously showing a look of happiness.
At the same time, a trace of determination also showed on her face!
This happiness cannot be destroyed by anyone!
Otherwise, even if she is just a weak woman, she would ensure others lose a layer of skin.
She just didn’t know yet, ever since Lin Xi used the Bone Refining Pill on her, she was no longer an ordinary person, let alone had been granted ’Hundred Days Foundation Establishment.’
It won’t take long, she will be as individuals who, after training for forty to fifty years, only have one in a thousand chance to become the King of Soldiers type.
Such figures, despite appearing more frequently lately.
They are still extremely rare in the whole world.
And judging from Chuzhou City’s situation, each power within the former four underground forces had no more than three King of Soldiers strong individuals.
You have to know, Chuzhou City is one of Huaxia’s top cities.
The key point being that Lin Xi would teach them fist skill in the future; once they grasped the basics, they could fully control their power. If they manage to learn everything, surpassing levels wouldn’t be impossible.
She sat down next to the two, joining in their conversation.
If outsiders saw this scene, they would undoubtedly think, isn’t this a happy family?
Oh, although that young man looks a bit too youthful.
But, it looks so harmonious.
While having dinner, the old auntie really experienced Lin Xi’s appetite, it was truly frightening!!!
"He doesn’t look overweight, why can he eat so much?" She was quite bewildered inside.
Additionally, she noticed that Xiaoxi, who usually barely finishes one bowl, ate three bowls today?
What happened during her time buying groceries and picking up Xixi?
After dinner, the three watched TV for a while before Lin Xi left.
Of course, he had informed Bai Bing earlier that tonight he’d return late, advising them to order in and eat by themselves.
After Lin Xi left, Xixi blinked her big eyes and asked, "Mommy, why do I feel like you’re walking uncomfortably?"
Xi Xiaoyi, "..."
Back to Lin Xi in his room, it was about seven-thirty.
Moreover, when he left in the morning, the once terribly ragged hall from last night was now completely restored.
Or rather, a whole set of furniture had been replaced and some flooring fixed.
You could say that in this era, as long as you have money, there’s hardly anything that can’t be accomplished.
Thus, the speed was understandable.
At the same time, the five men who lay in the hall yesterday were dead by the time he returned.
As for the corpses, they were dealt with by Gu Long’s people.
And he took time to visit "Mercenary Home" and saw the post Dragon King took responsibility for the matter, as for him, there wasn’t a single mention.
It seemed Dragon King’s handling of issues truly put people at ease.
At the same time, he got an approximate understanding of Dragon King, only then realizing this person has an invincible reputation domestically and abroad.
However, he doesn’t recognize it!
But he couldn’t fathom why Dragon King helped him so much?
Furthermore, he considered, since such a strong figure appeared within Huaxia and killed so many, shouldn’t Dragon King ensure he’s absorbed into their organization?
Or if not absorbed, at least strengthened control or constraints?
But till now, even that former distant and indistinct surveillance had completely vanished.
Could it mean they’ve entirely trusted him?
After pondering for a while, unable to figure it out, he didn’t bother.
Overall, his principle is: if people don’t infringe on me, I don’t infringe on them; if people infringe on me, I’ll definitely retaliate! If people treat me well, I’ll repay them double!
"Aren’t you hungry?" He asked when he reached the couch, seeing several boxes of seemingly luxurious food on it with a total price of 1008, almost untouched.
Bai Bing said nothing but had a look of ’you’re asking despite knowing.’
Su Qiaoqiao pouted, unwilling to respond to Lin Xi.
But Lin Mengmeng stood up, gave Lin Xi a big hug, then said, "Daddy, today we tried a new place, seeing half-price we went for it!"
"Turned out, it’s not tasty at all!"
"So you’re all still hungry then?" Lin Xi retorted, "Then why didn’t you order more?"
Meanwhile, he sat on the couch, picked up chopsticks, tried it, and couldn’t help but think, "Actually, it’s not bad!"
