Chapter 722 - World Congress - Part 2 (1/2)
”Have you heard it, Sister Elin? Everyone is going to the World Congress, but they don't bring us. This is unfair.” Delia complained. ”She brings the other women, but us, the women from the Arkania Continent. I heard Sister Arina is not on the list too.”
Elinova looked at the oven, checking her cake. It was her new project after hearing about the cake from Kang Xue. She was trying the new stuff to make a cake with the available ingredients. The cake grew bigger and looked nice from outside. ”Hmmm, maybe I can take it out in one or two minutes.”
After saying that, Elinova looked toward Delia and shook her head. She knew what the girl was talking about and what she tried to imply. Zhang Mengyao invited all of Tang Shaoyang's girls to the World Congress, but the girls from the Arkania Continent. Delia felt that she was being discriminated against because of that, but Elinova did not think so.
Elinova came over and flicked her finger on Delia's forehead. ”Why would we envy them? You know, right? They are not playing around but for the empire's official duty. I prefer staying in my kitchen rather than joining them at the World Congress.”
Delia was still much younger and sometimes a little immature, so Elinova had to look over her. She explained to Delia what this World Congress was about based on her knowledge.
”Urgh. If that's the case, then it's much better to stay at home.” Delia changed her mind after hearing what the World Congress was about. She did not want to sit and hear the other people speak for hours. That was just too boring.
”Sister Elin! Sister Elin! Sister Elin!” At this moment, a bunch of children entered the kitchen together, calling out Elinova cheerfully. Amongst the children, Li Na's sister, Li Yue, was taking the lead. ”Have you succeeded in making a cake?” Yeah, the children were excited about the cake. It was something that was hard to find since the Game.
Yeah, Elinova was popular with the children as she often let the children have the new food she made. The purple-haired woman had a smile on her face at the sight of the children. She brought them to the front of the oven and let them see the cake inside. ”Look there. I think we will have a cake soon. Do you guys want to decorate the cake together with me?”
”Yes~” The children replied simultaneously.
After the children, Li Shuang and Li Na entered the kitchen together. Elinova approached Li Na and Li Shuang as the children and Delia played around. ”Do you guys want food for the World Congress?”
Li Na shook her head while smiling. ”No, we can have the jerky and instant noodles for the food. We have the walking-stove with us.” The walking-stove she was talking about was Liang Suyin. She was the Fire Elementalist, the highest one in the Tang Empire. No one did not know about her in the Tang Empire.
”Then….” Elinova was about to ask, but Li Shuang cut her off. ”I want to leave Li Jiaying with you. Can you watch her while I am attending the World Congress? We don't know how long the World Congress is, so can you watch my daughter?”
”Of course. You can leave Jiaying to me, but have you told her yet that you are going today?” Elinova immediately agreed with that. She liked kids, and kids seemed to like her as well. ”I have told her, and it seems she is excited about staying with you.”
Elinova nodded and turned toward Li Shuang. ”I know. I will watch over your grandma and Li Yue too. You can go with ease.”
”Thank you, Sister Elin.” Li Na lowered her head slightly while shaking her head. ”Grandma is a little bit more active after leveling a few times. I kinda worried about her instead of Li Yue.” Yes, Li Na's grandma gained levels after cooking for months in the kitchen. Li Na's grandma was now level 32 and invested her attribute into Strength, Stamina, and Vitality.
The grandma who was having a hard time walking was now moving around actively like a kid. That worried Li Na more than her Little Sister, who was popular among The Tarrior. ”No worry. There are still many things I need to learn from your Grandma too. This might be my chance to learn her secret recipe.”
'Thank you, Sister Elin.” Li Na bowed his head. ”There's no need for thanks between us, Li Na. Aren't we family?” Li Na's face blushed slightly as she was not used to this.
”Then we will leave now. The portal will open soon.” After that, Li Shuang and Li Na bid their farewell, leaving the bustling kitchen.
