In a short while, Ruo Lin had prepared a few dishes and a soup. It seemed that Ruo Lin's cooking was really good. Just looking at it made one's appetite increase. Xiao Yan took a bite and felt that it was indeed not bad. It was on par with some of the chefs of large restaurants. Ruo Lin saw that Xiao Yan had stopped after eating a mouthful and thought that he had not finished cooking, so she opened her mouth to ask.
"What is it, Xiao Yan? Did I do something wrong? Why don't I make another one?"
After Ruo Lin asked, she looked at Xiao Yan with a nervous expression, causing Xiao Yan to feel embarrassed.
"Hehe, it's not as delicious as yours.”Xiao Yan truthfully replied.
"Then why aren't you eating? Is it not to your liking?”
Ruo Lin clearly sighed in relief when she heard Xiao Yan's words. However, she still asked with some doubt.
"The reason I stopped eating is because I don't dare to eat anymore. It's because your cooking is so delicious that I'm afraid I won't be able to eat your cooking in the future, so I can only eat less so that I won't miss you too much in the future.”
Xiao Yan said jokingly. However, Xiao Yan said that he missed you and not your food. It was just that he did not know if Ruo Lin had noticed.
"What's the big deal? If you miss me in the future, I'll cook for you.”
Ruo Lin's face turned red as she spoke. Clearly, she had understood the meaning behind Xiao Yan's words.
"Hehe, okay, okay, make it for me in the future.”
Xiao Yan heard that Ruo Lin did not reject him and laughed foolishly. He continued to stare at Ruo Lin until Ruo Lin's face was so red that blood was about to drip out.
"Silly..."
Ruo Lin saw that Xiao Yan was staring at her and felt shy and timid in her heart. She pouted and turned around to enter the kitchen like an ostrich.
Xiao Yan was happy when he saw this. He no longer teased Ruo Lin. After telling Ruo Lin to quickly come out and eat, she wolfed down the food. Little Zi Yan also ate with relish. Ruo Lin poked her head out and saw Xiao Yan wolfing down his food. She sighed in relief and slowly walked out. Although her face was still red, it seemed to have calmed down. Accompanying Xiao Yan to eat together and even adding food to Xiao Yan's bowl made Xiao Yan cry out in his heart,'Good wife and good mother'.
"Hehe, gentle Ruolin, you're mine, no one can snatch you away.”
Xiao Yan looked at Ruo Lin, who was gently placing food into his bowl, and thought to himself.
The meal lasted for a long time and was very enjoyable. Xiao Yan had also learned some of Ruo Lin's situation during their idle chat. It also allowed Xiao Yan to understand the strong side of Ruo Lin.
Ruolin was born in an ordinary family. Her father died when she was very young, so she had been relying on her mother for survival. He had learned Dou Qi by chance and had relied on his own fumbling to train all the way to his current Dou Shi level. Not long ago, he had entered the inner court with the results of the top 50 of the former court. Of course, his ranking was lower. However, it was enough to show Ruo Lin's cultivation talent. After entering the inner court, her days were not very good. A girl without the help of her family, relying on the few fires the academy set to do some small tasks with him to maintain her life, it was really not easy.
She heard from Ruo Lin that there were many people like her who came from poor families and had no one to rely on in the inner court. Xiao Yan admired Ruo Lin after hearing some of her experiences. For a girl, especially a beautiful girl, to be able to persevere was already very rare.
"Ruolin, why don't you follow me? Oh no, follow me. Sigh, not really. How should I put it?"
Xiao Yan spoke somewhat incoherently.
With a 'puchi' sound, Ruo Lin looked at Xiao Yan's incoherent manner and immediately laughed out loud. At the same time, her face turned red.
Ruo Lin's blushing manner caused Xiao Yan's appetite to increase greatly. However, he did not dare to show it. "Ruolin, I didn't mean it that way." I mean, you're living with us. I see that your current state of life is not very good, so I want to help you. Of course, I'm not pitying you. I'm not helping you for free. I'll ask you to complete some tasks. For example, I will not be able to take care of little Zi Yan tomorrow because I have something on. Hence, I wish for you to help me take care of her. Also, I have a lot of things that I need help with. Can you help me gather those people like you? I can give you one fire energy per day as a reward. What do you think?”
Xiao Yan looked at Ruo Lin somewhat nervously after he finished speaking.
"I'm afraid it's not very good to live with you. Moreover, I don't know anything. Following you will only burden you. I am able to help you take care of little Zi Yan and gather some people.”
Ruo Lin said worriedly.
"There's nothing bad about it. Just rest assured and live with us. "I want to eat your cooking every day. As for whether it will drag us down or not, that's not a problem. Your cultivation talent is so good. I will definitely make you a strong person. Alright, it's settled. Pack your things now. We'll pick you up later.”
Xiao Yan did not give Ruo Lin a chance to retort after he finished speaking. He stuffed a Storage Ring into her hands, carried Little Zi Yan and left.
"This…"
Ruo Lin stared blankly at the Spatial Ring on her hand. Her heart was both happy and melancholic. Originally, she had a good impression of Xiao Yan. However, when she thought of how outstanding Xiao Yan was, she was worried that she would not be worthy of Xiao Yan. Although she also felt that her development with Xiao Yan was too fast, she could not restrain her feelings for Xiao Yan. This caused Ruo Lin to feel that it was unbelievable.
"Perhaps this is love at first sight.”
Ruo Lin muttered to herself before turning around to pack her things.
Xiao Yan was also very nervous outside. He did not know if Ruo Lin would reject him or if she would feel that he was being too impatient. After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Xiao Yan felt as though a long time had passed. Feeling that if Ruo Lin agreed, it should be enough. Hence, Xiao Yan impatiently walked in.
Seeing Xiao Yan enter, Ruo Lin's pretty face turned red. She looked at Xiao Yan shyly but was unable to say anything. Seeing that the room was empty, Xiao Yan's heart immediately relaxed. Xiao Yan's current chicken action was like a perverted Russian ghost seeing a naked woman. His gaze was burning as he looked at Ruo Lin, causing Ruo Lin to feel even more uncomfortable.
"Hehe, since you're done packing, let's go. Otherwise, the sky will be dark.”
Xiao Yan said with a silly smile. He walked over and pulled Ruo Lin's small hand as they walked out.
Ruo Lin first struggled a little. Seeing that she was unable to break free, she could only follow behind Xiao Yan with a red face.
Xiao Yan felt happy in his heart when he saw that Ruo Lin did not struggle much. He hugged Little Zi Yan and pulled Ruo Lin's small hand. He had a silly smile on his face as he walked towards his small courtyard.
After returning to his own courtyard, he arranged a room for Ruo Lin that was close to his own room. After helping Ruolin tidy up the room, the sky was already dark. After eating the dinner that Ruo Lin made, Ruo Lin said that she was tired and went back to her room to rest.
Although Xiao Yan was a little disappointed, he still knew that Ruo Lin was currently not used to the new environment. She needed to think about her future plans. Hence, he did not stop Ruo Lin and carried Little Zi Yan back to her room. Lying on the bed, Xiao Yan was very excited. Today, he had received another beauty. He was so happy that he tossed and turned, unable to sleep. After a long while, the excitement died down before she slowly fell asleep.
Ruo Lin could not fall asleep in her room. Her mind was filled with Xiao Yan. As for what she was thinking about, she didn't know. When the sky was about to brighten, Ruo Lin slowly fell asleep.
