Chapter 1274 - 1277: National Day Long Break (Part 2)
Chapter 1274: Chapter 1277: National Day Long Break (Part 2)
That evening, the three women ate quite a bit.
They’d had a rough few days.
No matter how expensive the takeout was, it couldn’t compare to what Lin Xi cooked.
Besides, even if it was five-star takeout, to be honest, their ingredients might not be entirely trustworthy.
Not to mention the oil and salt and whatnot.
The big bear had it worse!
It had been waiting all along, thinking it could finally have a feast.
You should know, these past few days it only had takeout as big as a human head.
It really wasn’t enough to fill it up.
And the taste, when compared with Lin Xi’s cooking, was vastly different.
Previously, it had mentioned it, but then Mengmeng gave it a glare, and it shivered, not daring to bring it up again.
However, when it saw Lin Xi come out, he didn’t bring out the grill as usual.
Instead, he started practicing boxing.
The big bear believed that surely after the boxing practice, it would get some barbecue.
Yet, as soon as it saw the practice, it and the Ginseng King became so engrossed, they couldn’t extricate themselves.
But, after an hour or two, it came to its senses and found no cooked meat left in the yard.
Especially, when it thought about the aroma from the house earlier, which was Lin Xi’s dinner.
Its stomach couldn’t help but growl hungrily.
Letting out low howls of "awoo awoo," it looked towards the house and found no response.
It thought about shouting out loud, to remind Lin Xi.
It hadn’t eaten anything yet?
And it hadn’t been full for days!
These past few days, it felt like it had lost a lot of weight.
Inside, Mengmeng and Qiaoqiao had both gone upstairs to sleep.
Only Lin Xi and Bai Bing were left.
Clothes and such were strewn all over the floor outside.
At such a crucial moment, the big bear’s low howls rose up outside.
Lin Xi frowned, and shouted to the outside, "If you howl again, you won’t eat tomorrow either!"
Immediately, the big bear, which was about to howl loudly, fell silent, obediently crouching in the corner of the wall.
The Ginseng King poked a small head out from the ground, glanced at the big bear, and showed a look of inexplicable expression.
The big bear glared at it fiercely, raising its huge fist.
The Ginseng King immediately burrowed back underground, a faint laughter drifting out.
On any other day, the big bear would have punched towards where the Ginseng King had disappeared.
But now, it was staying put quietly.
Because it was obvious, it could sense that Lin Xi’s tone wasn’t quite right.
The next morning, given Bai Bing’s King of Soldiers physique, even walking seemed a bit off.
Qiaoqiao acted as if she knew nothing, and asked with concern, "Sister Bing, what’s wrong?"
"Not feeling well?"
"Nothing!" Bai Bing blushed slightly.
At the same time, she secretly glared at Lin Xi; it was all his fault for being so crazy last night.
It was as if he hadn’t seen a woman in eight lifetimes.
More crucially, she really couldn’t handle it alone.
Honestly, he wasn’t a normal person.
In that aspect, he was too strong!
Lin Xi glanced over, thinking to himself, "This little girl, is she asking knowingly?"
That sound last night, he thought there was no way Mengmeng and Qiaoqiao didn’t hear it.
Didn’t you see, Mengmeng was quietly eating to the side?
Although she occasionally snuck a glance, it was obvious that she knew.
If she knew, there was no way Qiaoqiao, who shared a room with her, didn’t hear.
Besides, Qiaoqiao wasn’t weak anymore.
Right now, she was already at the level of a top-tier special forces soldier, and in a while, she would probably reach the Soldier King Realm.
Of course, her speed was absolutely extraordinary.
This was not only related to her physique, but also because the spiritual qi in their villa was becoming thicker.
If you calculate it, it’s probably about half as dense as that of the Secret Realm.
This concentration seemed to have reached the limit of the outside world.
As for Lin Xi, he was already quite content.
To reach this level outside was really defying the odds.
The owners of the surrounding villas weren’t faring as well.
Because various small animals like snakes and rats, along with all sorts of plants and trees, were all growing wildly.
Even calling people to tidy up each day couldn’t solve the problems.
They were puzzled as to why Lin Xi’s villa didn’t seem to have any problems!
Several families decided secretly to pick a time to go over and ask them.
They suspected that this family was up to something.
But they couldn’t figure out what the purpose was?
At the same time, he thought of something funny.
Qiaoqiao’s father, that’s Su Xiong, a bigwig in Chuzhou City’s underground world.
He took spirit stones and some natural treasures, went into hiding with Wang Wudao, and the Ice and Fire Sisters, just to break through to the Innate realm.
If he didn’t succeed in breaking through and came back out.
He’d find that his daughter, who had no power and even had a terminal illness, suddenly matched his realm, and the illness that had been haunting her was gone.
I wonder if he would have a moment of "MMP" in his mind!
And knowing that the four elders of the Shangguan family all broke through to Innate, would he have another moment of "MMP"!
Moreover, knowing that if he hadn’t hidden away...
He could have broken through to Innate, would he be depressed for a lifetime!
Originally about to head to class, just at the door, Su Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but ask, "Are you going to class during the National Day too?"
Lin Xi, "..."
Even Bai Bing, seated on the sofa, didn’t head to work.
"It’s National Day?" He was stunned.
He really didn’t expect it to be this quick!
He opened his phone to check, and indeed, it was true.
He also checked the dorm group he had muted for a long time and found that Peng Bo, Xiong Haitao, and Cui Hua had already talked about it in the group.
But he hadn’t opened his phone much at all.
Plus, there was no signal in the Secret Realm.
Looking at the group chat, the three planned to go on an outing with him.
Seeing no response from him, they decided to exclude him from their plans.
Just when the plan was about to start, Peng Bo had something come up.
Or rather, there was something at home, calling him back.
No choice, their plan fell through.
Finally, Xiong Haitao and Cui Hua each returned home to their moms.
The chat history ended yesterday.
Today, there was nothing new.
And today was the first day of National Day, so they were likely either already home or on their way.
At this moment, he turned back, into the hall, only to find Mengmeng and Qiaoqiao both looking at him expectantly, even the usually icy Bai Bing had a hint of the same expression.
"What’s this about?"
