Chapter 462 Getting Better
Chapter 462 Getting Better
"Xiaoxiao, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Just practice step by step."
Lin Chuan touched his nose and said with a slightly embarrassed look.
Before she finished speaking, Jiang Wanying pushed the door open and walked in. Her eyes swept over Bai Zhi lying on the couch, and the corners of her lips suddenly curled up.
"What's wrong with you today? You're still lying in bed."
Jiang Wanying walked quickly to the edge of the couch, her tone filled with a hint of ridicule.
"..."
Bai Zhi slowly opened her eyes, glanced at Lin Chuan with resentment, then slowly lowered her eyes and remained silent.
"Aren't you afraid that your assets will shrink if you continue sleeping like this?" Jiang Wanying crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows.
"Even if their assets have shrunk, they are still more abundant than yours." Bai Zhi sneered and turned her head away with disdain.
"..."
Jiang Wanying glanced at Lin Chuan dimly, "It seems that Ah Chuan's performance is not very good."
"???"
Bai Zhi suddenly turned her head and stared at Lin Chuan, her already resentful eyes now showing a hint of grievance.
"Ahem, although it was Senior Sister who suggested changing the path of cultivation, it was mainly because I wanted to try it."
Lin Chuan coughed twice unnaturally, his tone gentle and earnest.
"..."
Bai Zhi lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment. Suddenly, she raised her eyes, and her eyes flashed with a bit of coquettishness: "Then my husband can't be partial to one and not to the other..."
Jiang Wanying: “???”
"That's natural."
Lin Chuan nodded in agreement. As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and held Jiang Wanying's hand tightly and walked out the door.
"Wait...wait, I want to go too..."
Bai Zhi hurriedly propped herself up, her eyes wandering over Jiang Wanying, her voice filled with anxiety.
"My lady, why don't you take a good rest..."
The corners of Lin Chuan's mouth twitched unnaturally, and a hint of helplessness appeared on his face.
"No...I want to supervise the battle myself!"
There was no choice, so Lin Chuan had to carry Bai Zhi on his back and leave the room with Jiang Wanying, who was slightly dissatisfied.
"Sister Bai is practicing so hard, I can't fall behind. I must practice hard and break through to the late stage of tribulation as soon as possible!"
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the three people's departing backs, his eyes firm and his fighting spirit high as he murmured.
……
Two and a half hours later.
In the room, candlelight flickered.
"You've adapted so quickly to a different path of cultivation. Feng Aotian, you..."
Bai Zhi looked at Jiang Wanying, who didn't even frown, with shock in her eyes.
"I've already told you that I'm the best match for Chuan..."
……
Being so busy every day, even with the support of Li Yue's elixirs, Lin Chuan felt a little overwhelmed. So in the following days, he stayed by Qing Shu's side more often and took the initiative to help her handle official business.
"Qin Lang is going to the Demon Tribe tomorrow?"
Qing Shu held her chin with both hands, staring quietly at Lin Chuan who was writing a business handling plan beside her, her voice soft.
"Ah."
Lin Chuan paused with the pen in his hand, looked up at Qing Shu, and nodded slightly.
"..."
Qing Shu pursed her thin lips, her eyes fixed on the figure beside her that she never tired of looking at, and said no more.
"How about you come with me to play in the demon tribe?" Lin Chuan sighed and put down the pen in his hand.
"Next time, there are still a lot of things waiting to be dealt with in Siqin Building." Qingshu shook her head slightly.
"Don't put so much pressure on yourself. I can take care of myself." Lin Chuan said softly with a gentle look in his eyes.
"I don't know what the future will be like, but I hope that when Qin Lang needs me, I can stand by his side and help him."
Qingshu's eyes were burning with determination.
"..."
Lin Chuan was slightly startled, then reached out and gently scratched the tip of Qing Shu's nose, saying in a doting tone, "Silly lady, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you tomorrow."
"As long as it's made by Qin Lang, I want to eat it."
……
The next day, the sun was at its zenith.
Chef Lin got up early and was busy in the kitchen.
During this time, all the girls offered to help Lin Chuan, but he declined on the grounds that "the kitchen is too small and it's difficult to even turn around."
Helplessly, they had to sit neatly at the table, looking towards the kitchen from time to time, quietly waiting for Lin Chuan to take the main seat.
Lin Chuan placed the last dish steadily on the table and glanced at the crowd. Seeing that they had been silent since the first dish was served, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and smiled, "Why are you all so quiet? Aren't you all too hungry to have any strength?"
"My husband, the head of the family, hasn't even taken his seat yet, and my sisters' hearts are all with him in the kitchen. How can they have the mind to talk?" Bai Zhi smiled and chuckled.
"Is that really the case?"
Lin Chuan looked at Jiang Wanying and Qingshu with a puzzled look.
The two girls nodded in unison.
He turned his gaze to Ye Xiaoxiao, but saw that she had her head down, seeming to want to say something but stopped herself.
When Lin Chuan was not around, the atmosphere at the table was terribly depressing. If she hadn't wanted to taste Lin Chuan's cooking, she would have found an excuse to escape in a hurry.
"The last dish is here. I'll get you some bowls and chopsticks."
Lin Chuan shook his head, turned around and prepared to go to the kitchen.
"Achuan, just sit down and rest for a while. I'll be there." Jiang Wanying raised her eyebrows slightly and spoke softly.
"..."
Lin Chuan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded gently, a gentle smile on his lips: "Then I'll trouble you, Senior Sister."
But after a moment, Jiang Wanying came over with a pile of bowls and chopsticks.
With a gentle smile on her face, she handed one set to Lin Chuan first, and then distributed it to the others in turn.
"I'll pour the wine for the sisters."
Qingshu smiled as she slowly stood up and took out a wine jar from the storage space. The moment the lid of the jar was opened, the rich aroma of wine immediately filled the room.
After a while.
"..."
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the wine in the glass, frowned slightly, and looked distressed.
Her eyes slowly shifted to Lin Chuan, as if she was searching for something. Seeing Lin Chuan nod gently, Ye Xiaoxiao's frown slowly relaxed.
"May our family get better and better."
Lin Chuan straightened up, with a gentle smile on his face, and slowly raised his glass.
"Getting better and better."
Ye Xiaoxiao raised her glass and agreed with anticipation in her eyes.
"Getting better and better."
Bai Zhi smiled faintly, raised her glass, and spoke in a soft but firm voice.
"Getting better and better."
When Qingshu heard the word "home", she was slightly startled, then she raised her glass and repeated it softly.
"Getting better and better."
Jiang Wanying raised her wine glass and looked at Lin Chuan with tenderness in her eyes.
"Okay, everyone, let's eat quickly, the food is getting cold."
Lin Chuan looked at everyone, his eyes full of tenderness.
"Well, the roast chicken made by Master, I've been craving it for a long time..."
When Ye Xiaoxiao heard that it was time to eat, her eyes suddenly lit up, and her gaze fell directly on the golden and shiny roast chicken in the middle of the table.
"I really know how to make this. I'll make it for Xiaoxiao when I have time."
Jiang Wanying smiled, picked up a chicken leg, and gently put it into Ye Xiaoxiao's bowl.
"..."
"No... no need, actually... Xiaoxiao doesn't really like to eat that much..."
