Chapter 671
At the moment, Lu Shu felt more sorry for the piles of peeled potatoes and chopped vegetables than the loss of his blood… b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l, he could never finish them all.
Lu Shu turned to Li Yixiao and asked, "Why are you here?"
Looking at Lu Shu's wasted and colorless face, Li Yixiao mumbled, "It's Chinese New Year soon. I thought you wouldn't want to celebrate it alone, so I'd like to invite you over to my place for a dinner."
"Your place?" Lu Shu was stunned. "You can cook?"
"You'll know it when you come," Li Yixiao said, pulling at Lu Shu's arm. Yet, Lu Shu was wondering what Li Yixiao was up to, for he was not really someone who would visit other people for no reason. Why? Was he suddenly feeling generous and hospitable today? What was more, an invitation to his own house?
Li Yixiao lived in the Luo City Cultivation College dormitory, which was specially built for Luo City Heavenly Network members and future teachers of the College.
As a Heavenly King, Li Yixiao was ent.i.tled to a suite of three bedrooms and one dining room since the opening of the dormitory. However, the owners.h.i.+p of the suite belonged to the Heavenly Network.
Lu Shu even b.u.mped into Xi Fei inside the dormitory building. He met many familiar faces, staring curiously at him. All the buildings were ten-storey tall, and Li Yixiao lived on the tenth floor.
At his doorstep, the door
This was unimaginable! Back then, Lu Shu could feel Nalan Que's deep feelings towards Li Yixiao when they joined forces to trick the other five families, and he had indeed considered the possibility of their continued love affair. But he had certainly not expected it to happen so fast!
Nalan Que had an ap.r.o.n around her waist and a spatula in her hand. "Nice to see you, Lu Shu. Come on in. Dinner's ready. Please wait for me to serve the dishes on plates."
Lu Shu almost shuddered in shock. Since when had Nalan Que become such a wife material? When Nalan Que returned to the kitchen, Li Yixiao winked at Lu Shu and announced proudly, "What do you think? I've trained her well."
Lu Shu was overwhelmed in astonishment. "I didn't know you were capable of that!"
He had a tour around Li Yixiao's new house. Apparently it had been carefully furnished, because small items of decoration could never be Li Yixiao's idea. He was such a coa.r.s.e man!
Lu Shu returned his gaze to Nalan Que, who looked just like an ideal wife… Was this all real? Weren't they supposed to be fated enemies? Lu Shu found it hard to believe in horoscopes again…
"Dinner is ready," Nalan Que called sweetly from the kitchen. Then, she walked into the dining room with two plates in her hands, stewed meatball with brown sauce and braised pork chops. They looked rather tasty.
Suddenly Lu Shu's attention was attracted by a globe beside the TV desk. There was something strange about it, because there was a red protrusion on its surface. Out of curiosity and boredom, Lu Shu pressed it and, unexpectedly, the globe cracked open in its center.
Instantly a stack of red RMB for visiting.
"This Nie Ting…" At the moment, Nalan Que was the last person who would want Li Yixiao to venture overseas. Couldn't they just live their own lives together? After a long pause, she was suddenly reminded of a piece of advice suggested by her bestie, that children could bind men to their woman…
Nalan Que cleared her throat and asked, "Li Yixiao, do you want a child?"
Li Yixiao was stunned. "Want a child? Who's willing to give you their child?"
Nalan Que was speechless. "I mean, do you want a child with me?!"
"Even if I go ask for a child with you, no one's willing to give away their child!" Li Yixiao found her request ridiculous.
Nalan Que's face darkened. She stomped away to watch the TV. "Never mind. If that's the case, our child would be a mentally disabled one anyway!"
