Chapter 315 (2/2)
Hesperides sighed and said, “These days, those who can’t hide themselves are basically dead.”
Hao Ren thought about it for a moment and felt that the main reason wizards these days were not doing good was because they were not smart enough. If they took some of the time they spent on studying magic to figure out how to make money, they would probably realise that they could set up a coal mining company in Shanxi and have plenty of caves to use. They could even go to Shennongjia to challenge human limits!
Of course, the wizards had nothing to do with them so, Hao Ren soon forgot about that and led everyone back to the big house, which he had long been separated from. The house was covered in dust but, it was much better than the last time when they travelled to the Otherworld for half a month. Vivian started to tidy the house up and Becky joined her as well. Hesperides was surprised to see Vivian busy cleaning the house, and asked, “This is where you live?”
“How is it? Pretty good, right?!” Vivian just found a rag and she was about to wet it to wipe the table. When she heard Hesperides’ question, she replied proudly, “My living conditions are now much better than before!”
It was not certain what Hesperides was thinking. She just looked at Vivian with a bizarre expression and said, “…It’s not exactly what I had imagined but, it’s a lot better than I thought. Looks like you’re satisfied with this life now?”
“Of course, I’m satisfied. It’s very peaceful, very lively. I don’t have to worry about food or clothing, and very often, fun things happen here. It’s a lot better than wandering here and there aimlessly,” Vivian answered as she cleaned the house. Then, she yelled from the bathroom, “Eh… Why is there no water?!”
“Maybe the pipe’s frozen.” Nangong Wuyue ran to the bathroom with water vapour all over her body and said, “Don’t panic, I’ll come and help! What kind of water do you want? Pure or mineral? Or, weak alkaline water…”
Hao Ren hurriedly reminded her, “Be careful! The last time, you almost flooded the kitchen! By the way, please give Lil Pea a bath…”
Hesperides looked at the family’s daily life in amazement. The daily scene of this little sanctuary was clearly different from what she had imagined. There was no infighting, no layers of defensive traps and a large number of unusual creatures lived together peacefully. This place did not feel like a sanctuary at all. It was more like… an ordinary family.
Hao Ren’s voice interrupted her thinking. “Umm, are you tired? If you’re not tired, let’s go to the basement for a scan and I’ll create a treatment plan for you.”
The moment Hesperides nodded, Lily asked solemnly, “The basement physical examination video?”
Hao Ren slapped the husky’s head and said, “Can you please watch something with healthy and positive content next time? By the way, come and help me. You have nothing to do anyway.”
Hesperides followed them to the basement without thinking too much. When she saw the scene in the basement, she was astounded.
“You… Are you sure you’re a wizard?” She stared at Hao Ren and said, “You better tell me the treatment plan first. Let me mentally prepare myself.”
