Chapter 996 - Returning to The Modern World (2/2)
“Mhmm,” Lin Lin buried her head and whispered.
Jiang Chen glanced at Lin Lin strangely. He couldn’t understand what happened to her today. Normally, she would jump up in happiness hearing that the fridge is stuffed with puddings. This unusually quiet state was not like her.
While perplexed, Jiang Chen didn’t think too much of it. Even the liveliest people would experience a few down days.
After breakfast, he went to the bathroom, brushed his teeth and washed his face, and then took a shower.
He had recovered by this point. At least he was no longer shaking, and his back was no longer so sore.
It was about time to go back, so he went to Yao Yao’s room.
It was only eight in the morning, so Yao Yao naturally was still asleep.
The little girl did not have the habit of locking her door. Jiang Chen just gently pushed it opened and walked into Yao Yao’s boudoir.
A faint fragrance blew in his face, following the unique fragrance belonging to Yao Yao, Jiang Chen quietly walked to her bed without disturbing this peace. He examined the cute face under the ray of morning light and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.
It seemed like she was dreaming of something delicious. The slightly open lips formed a happy arc. A sparkling silver thread hung at the corner of her mouth, just like morning dew on the mimosa. Delicate and cute.
Jiang Chen did not wake Yao Yao. He leaned down and kissed her, counting it as a simple farewell.
After he left the room, he gently closed the door behind him.
When Jiang Chen opened his eyes from the soft bed, he saw the sea breeze blowing in the open window. He could hear the rustling sand mixed with the sea wave. After he slowly adjusted his mindset back to the 21st century, he got out of bed.
The room was quiet, Ayesha had already left for Moscow, and Xia s.h.i.+yu had gone to the Future Building. He was the only person in the mansion.
After returning to the modern world, Jiang Chen didn’t just sit around. He immediately began to pack his luggage for Russia. Although Natasha said that he can go live at her place, considering that he may be in a foreign country for two to three weeks, he still must prepare some necessary items.
Whether in his luggage or in the storage dimension.
After Jiang Chen finished packing, it was already noon.
While hymning a song, he was preparing to treat himself to some fine dishes and a couple of good wines, but when he opened the fridge, he was suddenly speechless.
There was only half a pizza, a box of unopened pasta, and also a bottle of champagne, but it wouldn’t taste the same without an accompanying dish. Clearly, no one has cooked in this house for a while.
It was understandable for this to happen. Ayesha, the cook, went to Moscow and Jiang Chen also spent some time in the apocalypse. In the past week or so, Xia s.h.i.+yu was alone in this mansion. Since she could eat two of her meals at the Future Building cafeteria, even if she knows how to cook, she must have been too lazy to cook alone.
“Why is this girl so lazy,” closing the fridge door, Jiang Chen muttered to himself.
Although he could ring someone and they would deliver the ingredients to him, it would still take two hours. By then, it would be time for his afternoon nap.
With that thought in mind, Jiang Chen left the kitchen depressed and went back to the garage.
Since there was no food at home, he had to go to the Future Building.
