Chapter 271 (2/2)
Hao Ren lifted his brow and said, “I’m talking about life, can’t you be serious?”
Vivian smiled. She poked Hao Ren’s arm and said, “We’re back, can’t you be a little happy?”
After saying that, the vampire girl trotted towards the door not far away, leaving Hao Ren to stand there in a daze. She could make fun of her own poor life, which meant that she was really enjoying her life despite poverty, right?
After opening the door, Lily was the first one to run into the house. She ran into the living room and quickly circled it, sniffing around to make sure that no other dog had encroached on her territory while she was away. She then stood contentedly in the middle of the living room and shouted, “I’m back!”
Lily waited for quite some time, but no one answered. Only Rollie heard it and ran from the kitchen into the living room. When it saw its owner, whom it did not see for days, it quickly ran around Hao Ren like crazy. Rollie later walked slowly towards Lily and slightly nodded to welcome her home. That gave Lily a shiver, and then, Rollie slipped away.
This cat was definitely the supreme creature in the house.
“Wuyue and Becky aren’t at home?” Hao Ren went up to the second floor to look for them. Shortly after, he walked down and asked curiously, “Didn’t we send them a message saying that we’d be here by noon?”
Vivian went to the kitchen as soon as she came home. Like a skilled housewife, the first thing she did when she got home was prepare lunch for the family. She muttering as she walked, “Maybe they suddenly have something to do. Eh, Landlord, what’s for lunch?”
“Don’t bother, just noodle soup will do. As he spoke, Hao Ren sat on the sofa in the centre of the living room and suddenly, he found a note on the table. He picked it up to see, and found that it was a message left by Nangong Wuyue. It was written in a beautiful font, which read, ” Landlord, Becky and I are going to participate in some activities. We’ll be back at around 1 pm. Lunch is ready. You just need to heat it. The food is in the big steamer on the left, and Lil Pea is in the rice cooker on the right. Don’t heat the wrong one.”
Hao Ren held the note and shouted, “They really went out! They’ll come back soon… Oh my, Vivian, Lil Pea is in the rice cooker!”
He rushed to the kitchen, but suddenly remembered that Lil Pea was not afraid of hot water, so he relaxed. When he reached the kitchen, he saw Vivian holding the rice cooker, looking at it up and down. The vampire maiden found it weird and asked, “Why is Lil Pea inside the rice cooker? What about her pot?”
“Who knows, you can ask Nangong Wuyue when she comes back. She does a good job in taking care of this child, much better than I do.” Hao Ren had no idea what new phenomenon Nangong Wuyue had discovered over the past two weeks. Anyway, he was sure that the siren treated the little mermaid like a treasure, and there had to be a reason for putting the little mermaid in the rice cooker. He stepped forward and took the rice cooker from Vivian’s hands. He watched the little mermaid, who was curled into a ball and sleeping soundly. She was so lovely and adorable that Hao Ren could not help but want to take her out and kiss her. Seeing his “daughter” after so long, Hao Ren’s heart immediately melted as if his whole body and mind were healed. However, he did not take Lil Pea out of the water for fear of waking the little child. He just held the rice cooker carefully, ready to go into the living room. He wanted to give her a surprise when she woke up. However, just as he was about to turn and walk away, he found a strange piece of paper sticking out of the cupboard. He leaned closer and looked at its contents. It baffled him.
“Heat for 10 minutes on low heat in the morning. Add sweet balm.
“Heat for five minutes on medium heat at noon. Sprinkle with small amounts of radix isatidis granules.
“Heat for seven minutes on low heat at night. Do not add anything. After heating, allow it to cool off naturally. Lil Pea may jump out, pay attention to that and promptly put her back in to prevent her from catching a cold.
“Prevent her from bullying cats.
“The playing cards are not easy to digest, although she likes them very much. It’s best not to let her eat more, and if she really wants to eat it, dip it in vinegar.
“Don’t let her play with snow.”
Hao Ren was speechless.
He had a feeling that his daughter probably did something amazing… What exactly did Nangong Wuyue figure out?
