Chapter 294 - TEA SANDWICHES (2/2)
He long wanted to cook a sumptuous meal for his family. But since, technically, he just woke up from a seven-year coma, being able to do that immediately would be just a tad bit strange. So, he had to start with something simple such as snacks. He also started spending time in the kitchen during weekends, acting like he's watching their chef cook. So that it wouldn't be too weird if he started cooking more complicated dishes.
”Then next time, I'll try to make a meal for Dad, Brother, and Ah Jin,” he said.
”I'll be looking forward to that,” Luo Wei Tian said, looking gently at his second son.
”Of course, me as well,” Luo Ren seconded.
”Dad and Brother shouldn't blame me if it the meals I'll make turn out not to be good,” Luo Yan said, acting all coquettish.
”That won't happen. Because I'm sure whatever Yan Yan makes will be nothing short of delicious,” his older brother said, then eating another piece of tea sandwich as if to prove his point.
His father also ate another piece. ”Your brother is right.”
This unwavering confidence in him only reminded Luo Yan of Shen Ji Yun. Thinking of that cinnamon roll with Casanova tendencies, he couldn't help the smile that crossed his lips.

It was 30 minutes before Luo Yan's meeting with Bian Que – the number one Alchemist in Arcadia. He logged back into the game and appeared in front of his pavilion. This was where he logged out earlier. It didn't take long before Eclipse appeared beside him and sat on his shoulder.
[Are there still many people buying membership cards?] – he asked. Because he told Eclipse before he logged out earlier to continue watching the side courtyard.
[Yes, Mashter. There's still a long queue inside.]
He nodded in satisfaction when he heard that. He entered one of the side entrances of the pavilion, one that was away from the eyes of others. Just to be safe and make sure that no player could see him entering the pavilion.
He walked straight to his office. He already ordered Madam Ru to welcome Bian Que herself and deliver him to his office. When he arrived at his office, he immediately changed into a red robe and applied a temporary black dye to his hair. He then wore a silk veil to cover the lower half of his face.
Luo Yan knew that it was still too early before the meeting time. But it wouldn't hurt to be prepared. And he was proven to be right. Because just 10 minutes after he sat on his seat, Madam Ru already brought someone to his office.
It was a man wearing an ancient white robe. His long black hair was tied above his head with a jade crown. He had a clean temperament, as if he was someone who couldn't be swayed by worldly temptations. But those who knew him surely knew one thing that could tempt him – money.
This man was the current number one Alchemist in Arcadia – Bian Que.
