At five o'clock in the morning, Chen Zixin's biological clock woke him up. Chen Zixin got up and looked at Reba, who was sleeping soundly in his arms. He couldn't help but smile. Chen Zixin got up gently and got out of bed to put on his clothes and shoes. He quietly opened the door and closed it before going downstairs. He carried his backpack, opened the door, and began his exercise for the day. After a routine exercise, Chen Zixin realized that it was only half-past six. Thinking that Reba probably hadn't eaten his roujiamo yet, he put down his backpack. She took a shower, changed her clothes, and hung them up to dry.
He walked into the kitchen and took the beef tendon out of the refrigerator to thaw. Then, Chen Zixin went into the kitchen to prepare all the ingredients for the braised meat needed for the roujiamo. He added water to the pot and placed the ingredients and the Chinese medicine bag into the pot.
Chen Zixin looked at the beef that had already been thawed. He prepared it and placed it into the pot to start cooking. After a while, the fragrance coming from the pot made Chen Zixin very satisfied. Chen Zixin set the fire and began to make dough and bake buns. After he was done with all this, Chen Zixin sat in the pot and continued to cook.
At this moment, the system notification said,"Hello, Master. Please accept the mission."
Mission? What mission?"
" Accepting the invitation of Deng Chao to compose. Reward: Scorching Sun's script."
" Don't they have any running male songs?
" The song that they used in this world is a Korean song."
"It's like this, alright! "I accept it," Chen Zixin said silently.
Chen Zixin thought for a while before chopping up the braised beef and mixing it well. Then, he started to make a pot of white sugar porridge. It was already half-past seven when he was done.
Chen Zixin walked to the study room and saw Reba already up. He said, Little Daddy, since you're already awake, hurry up and wash up. I've already prepared dinner."
Reba smiled and said,"Little Wolf, you're so good. You have food to eat as soon as you wake up."
Chen Zixin smiled." Little Daddy, come and sit. I have something to tell you."
Reba nodded, walked over, and sat down to look at Chen Zixin. Chen Zixin took out his wallet from his pocket and took out a black diamond card." Little Granny Di, keep this bank card properly. I've given it to Yifei, Mimi, Xiaogu, Shishi, and Tangtang. They each have one. I'm going to give you one too. Be good and take it. I'm not always by your side. You have to learn to take care of yourself and eat on time. Don't eat snacks like they're rice. If you're tired, go home and rest. I'll take care of you for the rest of your life."
" Little Wolf, I can't take this. Sister Yifei and the others told me that you gave them 100 million. I can't take it," Reba said.
"Be good and take it. I don't want my Little Nanny to attend those boring dinners. I only want my Little Nanny to live happily. Give me two years, and I'll definitely marry you, okay? Just within two years, okay? " Honey," Chen Zixin said gently.
" Hubby, I promise you. I know that you've said harsh words to Sister Yifei and the others. I don't need you to say those harsh words. I believe that you'll marry me. We've made an agreement since we were young. I'll marry you, and you'll marry me," Reba said emotionally.
Chen Zixin smiled and pressed his lips against Reba's. Reba closed his eyes shyly, and the two of them kissed. After a long time, Chen Zixin said gently, Little Daddy, I love you. I'll definitely marry you."
Reba was touched and said," Little Wolf, I love you too. I'll wait for you to marry me." Chen Zixin smiled, got up, and pulled Reba downstairs.
Chen Zixin came to the courtyard and said,"Little Nanny, go wash up first. I'll give Uncle Huang and the others a call to ask when they'll arrive."
Reba nodded and went to wash up. Chen Zixin took out his phone and dialed Huang Lei's number. Soon, the call was connected. Zixin, why are you calling me?"
Uncle, let me ask when you'll be arriving at the mushroom house."
" The four of us are almost there. We'll be there in ten minutes by car. Oh right, is Reba here yet?"
She arrived last night. You haven't eaten yet, right?"
No, we're all hungry."
You guys can drive over to my house for dinner. I've already made it, so you can eat it directly when you come over."
" Alright, alright. Teacher He, hurry up. Zixin has finished preparing breakfast."
"Is that so? Then I'll speed up."
Zixin, we'll talk when we get there. Bye."
" Bye-bye." Chen Zixin hung up the phone and sat in the gazebo, waiting. At this moment, Reba came out after washing up and asked,"" When will Teacher Huang and the others arrive?"
" They'll be here in about ten minutes. Let's wait for them for a while. The rice is kept warm in the pot anyway," Chen Zixin said gently.
Reba nodded. Chen Zixin said, Reba walked over and sat down. Chen Zixin hugged him and said," Honey, do you want to spend the night with me?"
" In your dreams. I said I'd spend a night with you, so it's just a night. Don't think about anything good," Reba said as she rolled her beautiful eyes while sitting in Chen Zixin's arms.
Chen Zixin scratched his head awkwardly. Just as he was about to speak, his phone rang. Chen Zixin got Reba to stand up and answered the call." Junior Brother, what's the matter?
" Brother, the signing event that I told you about last time has been settled. It's Friday morning from 9 to 11. I'll send the address to your phone later."
" Alright, thank you for your hard work."
It's fine, Brother. I've earned quite a bit too. I've transferred the money to the Swiss bank card for you."
" Alright, I understand. However, I still have a plan. I wonder if you're interested."
Brother, what's the plan?"
" Are you interested in filming this book into an anime?"
"An anime is fine! I think it's very promising."
Alright then, you can work hard on the preparation for the early stages. I'll personally participate in the later stages. I'll handle the voice actors and the songs."
Alright, it's settled then. Bye, Brother."
" Bye-bye." After Chen Zixin hung up the phone, he said to Reba," Little Daddy, I've been hiding something from you. I want to tell you now."
What are you hiding from me? Are you hiding some money?"
"No, how could I hide my private money? Do I need to hide my private money? I don't need it."
" Then what's the matter?"
" The Legend of Qin is mine. I'm the author," Chen Zixin said frankly.
" What? You're Young Master Tianyu?" Reba asked in surprise.
"That's right, I am. Little Daddy, I didn't mean to hide it from you and everyone because this is my first time testing it. I'm also afraid that something will happen. I can't guarantee that it will sell well. I guessed wrongly. It will explode in popularity. "Why don't you scold me a little? I didn't mean to hide it from you," Chen Zixin apologized sincerely.
" Alright, I don't blame you. You have your reasons and concerns. I understand you, hubby," Reba said gently.
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"Thank you, Honey." After saying that, Chen Zixin was about to hug Reba, but Reba stopped him and said, I understand. How are you going to deal with Sister Yifei and the others?"
Chen Zixin said,"Give me your phone. I'll video chat with them and explain."
Reba nodded and passed the phone to Chen Zixin. Chen Zixin dialed the video call, and soon the video call connected. Chen Zixin began to explain and beg for mercy with them. It was not easy for them to understand. Chen Zixin hung up the phone and sat down with Reba.
Reba also sat down and said, Hubby, don't worry. Sister Yifei and the others understand you."
Chen Zixin nodded and said,"I'm not worried about them. I'm just afraid that if my brother finds out, he'll skin me alive."
" Ah, after all this time, you're worried about Brother Hu," Reba said with a pout.
" Not all of them, but my brother won't be able to get away with it," Chen Zixin said.
" Then why don't you just give it a try?" Reba said gently.
Chen Zixin nodded and dialed Brother Hu's number. After a while, the call connected. Brother, why are you calling me?"
Brother, I did something wrong. Can you and my sister forgive me?" Chen Zixin said fearfully.
" What is it? Just say it!"
Brother, don't scold me if I tell you. I'm scared."
Alright, I won't scold you."
Brother, The Legend of Qin was drawn by me."
" I already knew about this."
Brother, when did you find out?"
" Did you forget that you named yourself Tianyu? The study room in Hengdian is also named Tianyu. Is there such a coincidence in this world?"
Brother, you're really observant. You won't blame me, right?"
" No, you definitely have your concerns and considerations. Your sister and I understand."
Brother, thank you. I didn't mean to hide it from you."
" Got it, brat. Do you have any plans?"
Yes, I want to make it into an anime. Brother, are you interested in helping me do the voice-overs?"
" Alright, I agree. But we're brothers, so let's settle accounts. You're richer than me."
" Sigh, alright. I definitely won't go back on my word."
" That's good. Is there anything else?"
"One more thing. Isn't today May 15th? The bonfire party will be held on May 25th, which happens to be a Sunday. Can you and my sister come a day earlier? I'll cook a luxurious meal for you and my sister."
Alright, your sister and I will definitely come over in advance. I still have something on, so I'll hang up first."
Brother, bye bye."
" Bye-bye." Chen Zixin hung up after listening to the call." My brother's observation skills are really good. He actually managed to guess the name of my study room. Impressive."
Reba said,"Little Wolf, the name of your study room is really Tianyu."
" That's right. There's a reason why I chose this name. I'm an orphan, and God has blessed me so that I won't die and be adopted by Master. It means that God has blessed me with a peaceful and happy life. It means that I have full wings, dare to challenge myself, and know how to be grateful. Another meaning is that I have a pair of wings to fly in the sky, and I can soar in the vast sea and sky," Chen Zixin said frankly.
"Hubby, don't think that you're an orphan. "You still have me, Sister Yifei, and the others. There's also Brother Hu, Sister Jianing, Teacher Huang, and Sister Li," Reba said gently.
Chen Zixin smiled." Wifey, I don't want to think about it. With you guys by my side, it's home."
Reba nodded gently and leaned into Chen Zixin's arms. Chen Zixin hugged her like this. Just as the two of them were hugging comfortably, the sound of an engine at the door interrupted them. Chen Zixin complained," You really know how to pick the right time. I'm having a good time hugging you. What's with the fuss?" Chen Zixin let go of the hot bar and walked towards the door.
When Chen Zixin arrived at the door, he saw Huang Lei, He Jiong, Peng Peng, and Zifeng getting out of the car. Chen Zixin smiled and said," It's better to come at the right time than early. Hurry up and go wash your hands. I'll bring the food out."
Huang Lei laughed out loud." Haha, our Zixin is so good. He has food to eat as soon as he comes."
He Jiong smiled and said,"Yeah, we're all saving our stomachs."
" Brother, what did you make for breakfast?" Zifeng asked happily.
" I made roujiamo and a pot of white sugar porridge," Chen Zixin said.
" Woah, I'm coming for the roujiamo," Peng Peng said happily.
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"Hurry up and enter the house. Wash your hands and eat."
Huang Lei and the others quickly entered the house. Reba greeted them warmly when he saw them. Chen Zixin brought out the rice and bowls and chopsticks and placed them on the table. Come over, let's eat!"
" It's time to eat." His younger sister ran over happily and sat down.
Huang Lei and the others quickly sat down. Chen Zixin said," You can pick up as much beef as you want and put in the chili oil yourself. I don't care."
" Come on, let's do it ourselves." Huang Lei and the others quickly started making roujiamos and eating.
" Mmm, it's delicious. The meat is crispy and delicious," Huang Lei said.
" If only we met Zixin in the first season, we would have been able to eat so much delicious food. Why did we have to meet Zixin in the third season?" He Jiong praised.
" Haha, Teacher He, when is your first season?" Chen Zixin asked with a smile.
Our first season was 2018."
"I was still in the army in 18 years. It's impossible for you to meet me even if you wanted to!”,Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" Not bad. We've had quite a few meals," Huang Lei said.
" You ate quite a lot, but this roujiamo with white sugar porridge is superb," He Jiong praised.
The few of them laughed and cleaned up after the meal. When they returned to the mushroom house, the moment his sister entered the courtyard, she said in surprise, Daddy, look at the two swings, a swing chair, and two reclining chairs in the courtyard. Did the production team give them to you?"
Huang Lei said," You're thinking too much. Your Brother Zixin made this himself. He's been a carpenter since he was young. I even have a chair he made for me at home. Zixin, your craftsmanship is not bad. You're not rusty." Huang Lei walked to the swing and praised.
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"If I become rusty, won't I be embarrassing my master?"
" Of course. The birdcage your master made for me is still fine," Huang Lei praised.
" Zixin, how come you know everything?" He Jiong asked in surprise.
" Bro, you're too perfect," Peng Peng said enviously.
" Brother, you're amazing," the younger sister said proudly.
" Alright, stop praising me. Put your luggage away and come over to have some tea," Chen Zixin said as he brought a pot of tea to the pavilion.
Huang Lei and the others put down their luggage and walked over to sit down and drink tea. Chen Zixin drank his tea and said," Sister, did you receive the pastries from last time?
His younger sister said happily,"I got it, brother. Thank you."
" I'm fine. By the way, how did you do in your PE exam?" Chen Zixin asked.
" That's all thanks to you, Brother. My sports results are all excellent. We're on vacation now, so we're studying at home. You have to help me, Brother," said the younger sister.
" I can help you, but the most important thing is that you have to rely on yourself. The day before your exams, I'll make you a Top Scholar Cake. I wish you the best," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" Thank you, Brother. I promise I'll be the top scorer," the younger sister said confidently.
Huang Lei looked at the two of them and nodded in relief. At this moment, Chen Zixin's phone rang. Chen Zixin took it out and saw that it was the address of the signing event sent by his junior brother.
When Chen Zixin saw that it was from Tanzhou, he asked He Jiong," Teacher He, you're from Tanzhou. Can you help me check where this is?" Chen Zixin passed the phone to He Jiong.
He Jiong took it and said," This is the Tanzhou International Convention and Exhibition Center. It's just across the road from the broadcasting center where we're filming. Why are you asking?"
Chen Zixin explained calmly. Huang Lei and the others were very surprised and impressed.
" Brother, you're actually the author of Qin Shimue," his sister exclaimed.
" I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hide it from you. I was afraid that something might happen. I'm sorry," Chen Zixin said sincerely.
"It's fine. You must have your own concerns and considerations. We understand," Huang Lei said calmly.
" That's right, we understand. Zixin was the first to know your identity," He Jiong said.
" It's my brother. He guessed it from my house in Hengdian and the name of my study," Chen Zixin said.
" Your brother really knows you well. He could guess from the name of the study," He Jiong said.
" I didn't expect my brother to guess it either," Chen Zixin said.
" That's because your brother knows you too well. It's not hard to guess," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin nodded and said," My next step is to turn this manga into an anime. I'll be personally involved. Uncle Huang, Teacher He, Little Nanny Di, Sister, Peng Peng, are you interested in voice-acting for the anime characters? I'll give you the same price as my brother."
" Zixin, what money? Uncle doesn't want it," Huang Lei said.
" Uncle, that's a separate matter. My brother already took my money, so you have to take it too. Otherwise, I'll feel bad," Chen Zixin said seriously.
" Alright, since you're so serious, I won't postpone it. I'll dub for the anime," Huang Lei said.
" I'll come too. I've done voice-overs for anime before, so I'm experienced," He Jiong said.
" Brother, I don't have any experience," the younger sister said dejectedly.
" If you don't have any experience, you can learn slowly. I won't deduct your salary," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" Alright, I'll do it if you don't deduct my salary," the younger sister said with a smile.
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"Uncle, I'll take Friday off then."
"Why are you taking leave? Aren't you supposed to be working from 10 to 12? "Mushroom House just finished recording this episode. I'll go and support you," Huang Lei said.
" I'll go too. Anyway, our base camp's recording is in the afternoon. I'll bring Na Na and Zhang Jie to support you," He Jiong said.
" Brother, I'm free on Friday. I'll go too," Peng Peng said.
" Hehe, school is on vacation anyway. It's a good time to relax," the younger sister said with a smile.
" Little Wolf, Sister Yifei and I have already agreed that we will go and support you, but you have to pay for the round-trip air tickets and accommodation," Reba said.
Chen Zixin said," Sure, I'll pay for everything. I'll inform my junior brother to buy the plane tickets and send them over tonight. Have you booked the hotel?"
" That's more like it," Reba said.
Chen Zixin smiled and asked," Uncle, what's Teacher He's signing like? It's my first time and I don't have any experience. Can you teach me?"
" Actually, it's nothing much. It's just that when you get to the venue and sign autographs for your fans, there'll at most be a small interaction," He Jiong said.
" It's okay. We'll help you that day," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin nodded and changed the topic." Uncle, Teacher He, we have a meeting tonight because there are still ten days until the bonfire party. It just so happens to be Sunday the 25th, so we have to have a meeting tonight to discuss it. I have to help out when I'm free.
" That's fast. We're not ready yet," He Jiong said.
" Alright, we'll have a meeting tonight to discuss it and decide on it as soon as possible," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin nodded and said,"Alright, we still have to assign tasks. Let's decide on them as soon as possible."
Huang Lei and the others nodded and changed the topic. The phone in the mushroom house rang. Peng Peng ran over to pick it up. After a while, Peng Peng came out and said, Teacher Huang, a couple is here."
" There's a couple here. Why are they having a honeymoon?" Huang Lei asked.
" No, I'm here as a guest," Peng Peng said.
" He's a guest. I thought he was on his honeymoon. What did he order?" Huang Lei teased.
" A three-cup chicken and a portion of boiled vegetables," Peng Peng said.
" Oh, you're quite sensible to cook vegetables. You know how to save us a lot of trouble," Huang Lei said.
" It's fine. The corn has been picked, but the seedlings haven't been planted yet. The trees haven't been planted yet. The radishes can be harvested, and the cole can be harvested too. All these jobs have to be done by the guests," Chen Zixin said.
" That's true. There's so much work to do. It's to let the guests do more work," Huang Lei said.
" Yes, the weather is pretty good today. The sun is shining brightly. It's just nice to let them go harvest the radishes," Chen Zixin said with a smirk.
" Kid, you have all kinds of ideas," Huang Lei said.
" Hehe, what's wrong with the guests these days? Why don't they order a mutton pot in such good weather? By the way, Teacher He, where's my roasted whole lamb?" Chen Zixin asked.
" Yes, Mr. He. Where's my and Zixin's roasted whole lamb?" Huang Lei asked.
" I was busy with work and forgot about that. I'll definitely do it next time," He Jiong said with a smile.
Chen Zixin complained,"I knew it would be like this. Uncle, I don't think I can eat the whole roasted lamb."
"I have no choice! "I'll kill Diandian and roast it someday," Huang Lei said.
" Good idea. I've long disliked Diandian. It only knows how to eat and doesn't do any work. It's not even as good as the lights," Chen Zixin said sarcastically.
Huang Lei complained,"It's just that eating without working is better than eating."
He Jiong shook his head and said helplessly to the two of them, The two of you are really willing to say anything just to eat."
Huang Lei and the others laughed and started chatting again. At this moment, Chen Zixin's phone rang. Chen Zixin took out his phone and saw that it was the village chief calling. He picked up the call. The two of them chatted for a while before Chen Zixin hung up the phone and said,"Uncle, Teacher He, if the two of you have nothing to do now, can you come with me to the village square?”。
" Why are we going to the square? Huang Lei asked.
"It's like this. This year's bonfire party in the village happens to be 1200 years old. This year will be bigger than the previous years, and a troupe will be invited to perform. The village chief wants me to bring you over to discuss whether you can borrow the equipment for the show. He also hopes that Teacher He can be the host," Chen Zixin said.
"1200 years is a long time. I'll take care of the production team's equipment. Teacher He, since the village chief invited us over to discuss, let's go over and take a look," Huang Lei said.
He Jiong nodded." Then who's going to stay and watch the house? There's a guest coming over later."
" Tell Peng Peng to watch the house. We'll go over," Huang Lei said.
He Jiong said,"Sure, Peng Peng will take care of the house. Let's go!"
Chen Zixin smiled and led the few of them away. Ignoring the wailing Peng Peng, the five of them chatted and laughed as they walked along the road. After a while, the few of them arrived at the square and found the village chief. After a warm discussion with the village chief, the few of them were about to go back. Chen Zixin said,"Uncle, you guys go back first! I'll help them set up the shed. There's only a little roof left. It'll be done in an hour."
" How about this? It's only nine o'clock anyway. We can stay and help. It's fine," Huang Lei said.
" Uncle, that won't do. Who's going to receive the guests when they come over later?" Chen Zixin said.
Isn't Peng Peng still at home?" He Jiong said.
" Peng Peng is at home, but what if someone older than Peng Peng comes and the two of them can't communicate? It's not good to just sit there!" Chen Zixin said.
"Easy! Teacher He, bring Reba and your sister back first. Zixin and I will stay behind to help. It's only an hour, right?" Huang Lei said.
"That's fine! "You stay and help. We'll go back and entertain the guests first." After saying that, He Jiong brought Reba and his sister back.
Chen Zixin took out two pairs of gloves and handed one to Huang Lei."" Uncle, I'll be on top. You're in charge of tying the wood up. I'll pull it up and assemble it on top."
Huang Lei nodded. Chen Zixin smiled and leaped onto the roof, throwing down the rope. Uncle, catch the rope and tie the wood."
Huang Lei took the rope and began to work. The two of them cooperated quite well, and the roof of the shed was built very quickly.
The mushroom house welcomed Deng Chao and Sun Li. The few of them were chatting and laughing. Deng Chao asked, Where did Teacher Huang and Zixin go? Why didn't I see them?"
"They went to the village square to help set up the things for the bonfire party. They'll be back in a while," explained He Jiong.
"When can we go to the bonfire party?" Deng Chao asked.
He Jiong explained with a smile. Deng Chao said in surprise,"1200 years of history. This is basically something that you can't see. Can the two of us come and participate? We just happened to be free that day."
He Jiong said," I'll tell Zixin about this when he comes back. Only those who agree can come. After all, Zixin has a very high status in this village."
"Is that so? "How high is his status?" Sun Li asked.
He Jiong explained,"How should I put it? Zixin and his master are the saviors of this village. At that time, the village's sanitary conditions were poor and many people were sick. His master took him everywhere to treat illnesses. At the same time, his master also taught the villagers some skills. Now, this village can develop into a well-known village because of his master and Zixin. Zixin has a great influence in this area. Last time, when we went to the market to buy vegetables, they knew that we were related to Zixin and rushed to give us free vegetables. If we hadn't tried our best to stop him, he wouldn't have finished the food and Zixin wouldn't have dared to go out to buy groceries himself. He would have asked someone else to do it."
" It seems like Zixin's influence isn't small, and his status isn't low," Sun Li said.
" I'll have a good chat with Zixin when he comes back later so that he can let me join the bonfire party," Deng Chao said with a smile.
He Jiong and the others laughed when they heard that. At this moment, the mushroom house's phone rang again. Peng Peng quickly got up to answer it. After a while, Peng Peng came out and said, Teacher He, the guest wants you to answer the phone."
He Jiong nodded and went to answer the phone. After a while, He Jiong came out after answering the phone. Peng Peng asked, Teacher He, which guest is it?"
He Jiong smiled and said,"I can tell it's Xiaoming Huang and Chen Qiaoen."
" Xiaoming Huang and Chen Qiaoen? Why are they here?" Deng Chao asked.
" It should be because they were filming a drama together not long ago. The production team invited them over," He Ji said.
" I see. What did you order?" Deng Chao asked.
" Xiaoming ordered braised pork. Qiaoen wants to eat the tomato fish that Zixin made on the show," He Jiong said.
" Why is Zixin not only delivering food to Reba on the show, but he's also cooking in Ji Tiao? Does he treat the show as a food show?" Deng Chao asked curiously.
He Jiong smiled and explained," Zixin and the others are working in the hotel for a mission. Isn't Zixin delivering food?" He also helped the hotel cook a dish and used his official position to cook a meal for everyone. The dish that Zixin cooked even helped the hotel win a contract with France. The hotel owner specially treated Zixin and the others to a luxurious meal.
" I didn't expect Zixin's dish to be able to do business. Impressive," Deng Chao said.
" How good is Zixin's cooking? Why do you admire him so much?" Sun Li asked in confusion.
" Honey, let me tell you, Zixin is the chef of the state banquet. Last time, I had a meal of Zixin's Egg Fried Rice and Sour and Spicy Shredded Potato in Running Men. The taste was superb," Deng Chao said happily.
"The chef of the state banquet, my God, he's too amazing! "He's only 24 years old and he's already at this stage. This is too scary," Sun Li said in surprise.
" If it's not scary, why do you call me Young Master Wushuang?" Deng Chao said.
" Brother Chao, I was wondering why some of the guests ate so little in the last competition. So it was you who mixed in with the guests to eat. You have all kinds of methods," Reba said with a smile.
"I had no choice! "I'm not you. That day, your family made three meals for you and sent them over. Each meal was different, so I had to rely on my own intelligence to make a living. However, I can eat it today. Hehe, can Zixin drink his wine now?" Deng Chao said smugly.
" The wolf cub brewed his own wine. Currently, only grape wine can be drunk. It's not time for the rest of the time," Reba said.
" It's fine. It's fine as long as there's wine. How old is it?" Deng Chao asked.
" It's fifteen years old, and it's not available on the market. This is the exclusive secret recipe of Little Wolf and his master. We won't pass it on to anyone," Reba said.
" It's been 15 years. Oh my, you have to try it properly. It's an exclusive recipe," Deng Chao exclaimed.
" Chao, Sun Li, you guys have to have a good taste tonight. That's good wine. I don't feel anything when I drink other wines now. I'm addicted to it," He Jiong said.
" Then we have to try it," Sun Li said with a smile.
Deng Chao smiled and said,"Actually, I came here with a mission."
" Mission? What mission?" He Jiong asked.
" It's just that the running man director wants to invite Zixin to record a show and then ask him to write a song for us," Deng Chao said.
" I don't think we can help you with this. You can ask Reba if he can help," He Jiong said.
" How about Reba? Do me a favor," Deng Chao said.
" Brother Chao, I want to help too, but Little Lang is very principled. He doesn't really like to participate in shows. The last time he went to the Top Pick, Teacher Huang coaxed him to go and record an episode. Besides, Little Lang is very busy. He has to help prepare for the bonfire party these few days, and he has to be on guard against the hospital's phone calls at all times. He still has to attend the signing event on Friday," Reba said helplessly.
"If that's the case, why is Zixin on alert for the hospital's phone call? "He went to treat his body," Deng Chao said.
" You're thinking too much. Zixin doesn't even sneeze. He's treating others. My waist injury, Reba, Yifei, Xiaogu, Mimi, Sister, Shishi, Brother Hua, Wu Jin, Xu Zheng, and Huang Bo were all treated by Zixin. His medical skills are superb," He Jiong said.
" Isn't Zixin good at everything? Are you going to let me live? If he enters the industry, who can be his match?" Deng Chao said in admiration.
" Then don't worry. Zixin said he won't enter the industry. He doesn't lack money," He Jiong said.
" That's true. He's made a lot of money from his books and television series over the years. By the way, is Brother Hu really that close to him?" Sun Li asked.
" That's great. Zixin has been cooking for him for three years and he hasn't done it again. He even made a special dish for Brother Hu that no one can eat. Even if Jianing wants to eat it, she has to rely on Brother Hu to ask Zixin to make it. To be honest, even Jianing has to step aside for Brother Hu and Zixin's relationship. The two of them are even closer than real brothers. The internet says that they are true love, and that's true. If Zixin has good wine, good food, and good tea leaves, Brother Hu will be the first to eat them. The others can step aside, not even Reba and the others." He Jiong said.
" Then their relationship is really good. Zixin really treats Brother Hu like his own brother. I heard that Zixin doesn't call anyone else brother or sister. Is that true?" Sun Li asked.
" That's right. Zixin will only have Brother Hu and Sister Jianing in this lifetime. No one else will ever be able to do that. Brother Hu and Jianing once brought Zixin out for a meal, and someone at the dining table insisted that Zixin call him Brother. Zixin got angry on the spot and kicked that person away. That person was hospitalized for a week, but he didn't dare to cause trouble for Zixin. He turned around and left the moment he saw Zixin," He Jiong explained.
Zixin really treats Brother Hu and Jianing like family. This relationship is really enviable. Reba, aren't you jealous? Deng Chao teased.
Reba smiled." I'm not jealous. I'm happy for Little Lang to have relatives like Brother Hu and Sister Jianing. He's always wanted a home and a family to accompany him."
"Yeah! "Ever since his master passed away, he's been living alone. When he was thirteen, he ventured into the world alone and met Brother Hu and Jianing who treated him sincerely. He definitely treated them as family. Brother Hu told me that Zixin has only cried twice in all these years. The first time was when he was raised by a good master and the second time was when he cried about the last incident. He hasn't cried since then. This child has suffered a lot," He Jiong said with red eyes.
" Let's not talk about this boring topic. If Zixin hears this, he'll probably feel terrible. Teacher He, can you bring us to see where Zixin and Teacher Huang are setting up the campfire? We're curious," Deng Chao said, changing the topic.
" Sure. Peng Peng, I'll let you take them this time. The three of us will watch over the house and make a cup of tea for Teacher Huang and your brother," He Jiong said.
" Okay, I'll go now," Peng Peng replied and happily made two cups of tea before bringing Deng Chao and Sun Li to the square.
In the square, Huang Lei and Chen Zixin were working hard. Chen Zixin said, Uncle, why don't we rest for a while? We're just a few more pieces of wood and it'll be over."
Huang Lei said,"I'll rest for a while, but I'm really happy to see my results."
Chen Zixin smiled and said," Uncle, why do I feel like this stage is lacking something? Do you have any good suggestions?"
"Don't say, there really is. Look at this stage, it's at least a few hundred square meters! "I think we can design the stage according to the gala," Huang Lei said.
" Sure, but I know a lot. Why don't we have a meeting tonight to discuss it?" Chen Zixin said.
Huang Lei nodded." We'll have a meeting tonight to discuss it. Let's make a decision as soon as possible. We don't have much time."
As the two of them were chatting, Peng Peng brought Deng Chao and Sun Li over. Peng Peng shouted, Teacher Huang, come over and have some tea. I made two cups of tea."
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"Alright, I'll come down immediately." After saying that, Chen Zixin flipped over, jumped down, and walked over. Deng Chao said in surprise,""Damn, Zixin, you're a martial arts expert! Jumping down from such a high place is very stable."
"High? Wasn't it only six meters tall? " I often do this. This is," Chen Zixin pointed at Sun Li and asked.
" Come, let me introduce you. This is my beautiful daughter-in-law, Sun Li," Deng Chao said proudly.
" Hello, Teacher Sun Li," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" You don't have to call me Teacher Sun Li. You can just call me Sun Li. It's not that particular," Sun Li said.
" Then I'll be presumptuous. By the way, are you here to take a look or to help?" Chen Zixin asked.
" I just came to take a look," Deng Chao said.
" I can't come over to take a look. Since I'm here, I have to work. There are only a few boards left on the roof. You can go up and order them for him," Huang Lei said while drinking tea.
" Teacher Huang, I can't go up," Deng Chao said.
" It's okay. There's a ladder over there," Huang Lei said.
I feel dizzy."
Let Zixin help you take a look."
I'm afraid of heights."
" It's fine. Zixin can be cured too. Just go up," Huang Lei said with a smile.
" No, why are there so many ways?" Deng Chao said.
Chen Zixin and the others laughed. Chen Zixin laughed and said, You might not be able to do it well if you go up. You've never done carpentry before, so you don't know where to start. Besides, this wood is quite heavy.
" How heavy is this wood?" Deng Chao asked.
" It's only about a few hundred pounds. It's not heavy," Chen Zixin said.
Huang Lei spat out a mouthful of tea and said," Brat, that's because it's not heavy for you. Do you think everyone else has insane stamina like you?"
Chen Zixin scratched his head and said," I forgot, Uncle. We're still missing five pieces of wood. Let's work together and put them on him."
"Alright, let's go home after we're done. We'll have a meeting tonight to discuss it," said Huang Lei. Chen Zixin nodded and put down his teacup. He flipped over and went up to the roof to throw the rope down. Huang Lei and the others immediately came over to help tie the wood.
"Are you done?" Chen Zixin asked.
" Alright, you can pull it up now," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin nodded and easily pulled the wood up. He untied the rope and laid it down to secure it. Then, he lowered the rope down. Just like that, he went back and forth ten times and finished setting up the roof. Chen Zixin jumped down and said," Not bad, you look like you have a sense of accomplishment!
Huang Lei smiled and said,"That's quite an achievement. After working hard, I'm very happy to see my results."
"Uncle, let's go back first!" Chen Zixin said with a smile. We still have other things to do!
Huang Lei nodded and led them to the mushroom house. On the way, Deng Chao asked," Zixin, do you think we can join the bonfire party?"
Sure, but do you two have time?" Chen Zixin said.
" We have time. We don't have work that day," Deng Chao said excitedly.
"Then come on! "But don't drive over, lest you run out of space. Also, bring some food over," Chen Zixin said.
" Hai, it's not a big deal. I agree," Deng Chao said happily.
" There's one more thing I need to discuss with you," Deng Chao said.
" Just say what it is," Chen Zixin said.
" Our runner wants to invite you to record a show and also to write a song."
" Writing songs? Don't you guys have any songs?
Yes, our show was modified by a foreign copyright, so the songs used are from other countries. That's why the television station requested that our show have one of its own."
There aren't that many singers. Why did you find me?"
It's all because of your reputation."
I can help you, but don't blame me if my writing isn't good. It's my first time writing about such a subject."
" It's okay, I believe you. Can that runner go over?"
I'll go if Little Nanny agrees. If she doesn't agree, I won't go. You can just look for her."
Yo, you're quite supportive of her. Alright, I'll look for her."
Of course I have to listen to my wife. I have the final say in major matters, but she has the final say in other matters."
" For example, what major event?"
" For example, cooking, washing clothes, and doing household chores are all important matters that I have the final say in. I have status now," Chen Zixin said smugly.
Huang Lei and the others laughed. Deng Chao laughed and said," So this is a huge matter. I thought it would be an earth-shattering matter."
"Isn't this a big deal? You see, cooking and washing clothes hurt your hands and skin. It's fine for us men to have rough skin and thick flesh, but can women have fine skin and tender flesh? Isn't it good to learn from me when you're free? Chen Zixin said smugly.
" Okay, Zixin's right. Deng Chao, go back and do more housework. Don't play with your phone all day," Sun Li said coldly.
" Alright, I'll do as you say," Deng Chao said quickly.
Chen Zixin and the others smiled and didn't say anything. Chen Zixin asked," Uncle, what are you cooking for lunch?"
" Deng Chao and I are from the same hometown. I'll make Hongdu Rice Noodles for lunch," Huang Lei said.
" Thank you, Teacher Huang," Deng Chao said happily.
"Uncle, are you sure you have enough time? "We're having lunch, not dinner. The vermicelli alone will take five hours to soak. Also, how long will you have to boil the soup for?" Chen Zixin said.
" How could I forget? The vermicelli takes a long time to soak. If we want to eat, it'll probably be in the afternoon. Do you have any ideas?" Huang Lei asked.
" The weather is still a little hot today. Are you guys sweating? Chen Zixin asked.
" Nonsense, why aren't you sweating? The temperature today is at least 35 or 36 degrees," Huang Lei complained.
" You guys are so hot. I'll make some sesame sauce cold noodles for you guys to try," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" Okay, okay. It's good to have cold noodles for lunch," Huang Lei said.
" Then hurry back. I'll cook. Peng Peng, go to my watermelon field and pick two watermelons," Chen Zixin said.
" Brother, I'll go now." Peng Peng ran off after saying that.
Chen Zixin smiled and followed Huang Lei and the others back to the mushroom house. Once they entered the mushroom house, He Jiong walked over and asked,"" How is it? You're done."
" The shed has been set up. We just need to finish the work. It'll be done in a few days," Chen Zixin said.
" That's good. Everyone, come in and wash up," He Ji said.
The few of them walked to the sink and washed up. He Jiong said, Zixin, let me introduce you to the guests."
Chen Zixin nodded and walked over." Qiao En, why are you here?"
"Zixin, you didn't expect this, did you?" Chen Qiaoen said happily.
" I didn't expect Teacher He to be," Chen Zixin asked.
" This is Xiaoming Huang," He Jiong said.
" Hello, Young Master Wushuang. Just call me Xiaoming. I know your concerns," Xiaoming Huang said with a smile.
" Then I'll be presumptuous. You can just call me Zixin," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" Then I won't stand on ceremony," Xiaoming Huang said with a smile.
He Jiong said,"Come, everyone sit down and have some tea." He Jiong invited everyone to sit down.
Everyone took their seats and greeted each other. Deng Chao teased, Reba, your man said that as long as you agree, he'll go."
" Not bad, I'm very satisfied. You can go then!" Reba said proudly.
" Ah, okay. But where are you guys recording and when are you guys filming?" Chen Zixin asked.
" We're recording on Saturday. We're going to Dali this time," Deng Chao said.
" Why did you guys think of going to Wind, Flower, Snow and Moon City?" Chen Zixin asked.
" What romantic city? Let's go to Dali," Deng Chao said.
"That's right. Dali is affectionately called the City of Wind, Flower, Snow and Moon by the locals. It's also known as the Eastern Switzerland and the famous city on the plateau. The Nanzhao Kingdom in the Legend of the Sword and Fairy that I wrote is there. Do you understand?" Chen Zixin said.
" Impressive. Zixin knows so much information just from the name of the place. I'm impressed," Xiaoming Huang said with a smile.
" It's alright. I've been running around with Master since I was young and I've been to this place too. However, it's been many years and I've almost forgotten about it," Chen Zixin said.
" Zixin, Uncle, I'd like to ask you how many places you've been with your master," Huang Lei said.
" I've been to a lot of places both at home and abroad. I can't remember," Chen Zixin said.
" Then you've been to many places. Where did you stay the longest?" Deng Chao asked.
" The longest was Little Nanny Di's hometown. I stayed there for more than a year, from eight to nine years old. Little Nanny Di ran behind me all day. If she wasn't pestering me to eat, she would ask me to accompany her to play," Chen Zixin teased.
" Stinky wolf, what nonsense are you spouting? You were the one who asked me to go up the mountain with you to pick herbs. Besides, you were the one who gave me the food to eat. I didn't want it. Who else would play with me? Didn't you chase them away? You keep saying that you're dizzy and want me to carry you, and you still have the cheek to say that," Reba complained with a pout.
" Then why don't you say that I carry you up and down the mountain every day, carry you to and from school, and chase away those boys? I have a purpose, so I don't have to follow you around like a fly," Chen Zixin said with a grin.
"Oh, Zixin, you reserved a hot bar when you were young. " It's a little overbearing to not let other boys come into contact with her," He Jiong teased.
" Of course. Otherwise, my wife will run away. I won't do that," Chen Zixin said smugly.
" Yo, yo, yo. That's pretty impressive," Deng Chao teased.
"But Zixin can do it too! "He actually carried Reba to and from school every day. He's quite persistent. Reba, don't you think he's pretty good?" Sun Li said with a smile.
" He carried me willingly. I didn't force him. Isn't that right, Little Wolf?" Reba said as he stared fiercely at Chen Zixin.
" I willingly carried you to and from school and played house every day," Chen Zixin said nonchalantly.
"Playing house! "You're really good at it," Deng Chao teased.
" Stinky Little Wolf, I'm going back to tear down your study room right now." Reba ran off after saying that.
When Huang Lei saw this, she said,"Zixin, hurry up and chase after him."
"Why are you chasing me?" Chen Zixin said with a smile. "I can't enter the study room. She must be at the door and hasn't returned home yet. I'll go cook now. She'll come over immediately when she smells the fragrance," Chen Zixin said and went to cook.
Huang Lei said," It seems like Zixin knows Reba well enough. I'll go and help him knead the dough. Teacher He will go and pick some cucumbers and carrots. Peng Peng will go to the warehouse and get some bean sprouts." Huang Lei then went into the kitchen to help.
He Jiong also brought a few people to pick vegetables, and Peng Peng also went to the warehouse to get some bean sprouts. Soon, Chen Zixin's cooking smelled good. Reba, who was hiding in the corner, ran in and said, Little Wolf, what delicious food did you make this time?"
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"Uncle, how was it? I said she'd come out once she smelled it!"
Huang Lei smiled and said," That's true. Reba, you really came out the moment you smelled the fragrance. Just now, Caizixin said that you would come out when you asked about the fragrance. I didn't believe it, but you really came out."
Reba pouted and said,"Stinky little wolf, you win. If it wasn't for your delicious cooking, I wouldn't have ignored you."
Chen Zixin said gently," Alright, it's my fault. Don't be angry anymore. Go and clean up the table. We can eat soon."
" Hmph, it's good that you know your mistake. This time, your study is safe, understand?" Reba snorted.
" Thank you for showing mercy," Chen Zixin said.
" Yes, I'm very satisfied with your apology. I'll go pack up." Reba skipped off to pack up after he finished speaking.
Huang Lei said gratefully,"Reba's personality is cheerful, and he's a perfect complement to you. Ever since the two of you reunited, you've changed."
" Changed? What changed?" Chen Zixin asked.
" If we use weapons to describe you, you used to be like a sharp knife, but now you're as calm and restrained as a sword. Reba and the others are your scabbard. You can unsheathe your sword for them or remove the blade for them," Huang Lei sighed.
" Maybe. I've really changed, but it's pretty good. At least Master can rest assured," Chen Zixin said.
Huang Lei nodded in relief. Chen Zixin smiled and continued to cook. Soon, the food was ready. Huang Lei said, Come over to bring the food."
It's time to eat. I'm drooling just by smelling it."
" Mmm, quickly take it away and eat."
I have an appetite."
“………”。
Chen Zixin walked over with the sesame sauce and chili oil and put them down." Add whatever sesame sauce and chili oil you want. I don't care."
" We'll make it ourselves. If you want to eat spicy food, add more. If you want to eat sesame sauce, make it yourself," Huang Lei said.
Here you go, make your own noodles."
" The taste is first-class. It's spicy and fragrant."
Yes, it's comfortable to eat."
“………”。
The meal was quickly finished. Everyone tidied up and sat down to drink tea and chat. At this moment, a voice came from outside the door. Brother, are you here?"
Little Tiger, come in!" Chen Zixin said gently.
Xiaohu heard the voice and ran in happily." Hello, uncles, aunties, brothers, and sisters. My name is Xiaohu."
" Hello, Xiaohu," Huang Lei and the others asked gently.
" Xiaohu, you came here to look for me," Chen Zixin said.
" Brother, can't I come and look for you for no reason? Little Tiger said cutely.
"Alright, don't play this game with me. " Why are you looking for me?" Chen Zixin asked with a smile.
" Hehe, I'm so good. I'm here to thank you!"
" Why? Did you have a lot of fun at the amusement park today?"
" I was really happy. Today, I took Little Yu 'er on a roller coaster, pirate ship, roller coaster, and many other exciting rides. Oh right, there's also a haunted house. I'm not afraid at all, unlike Little Yu' er who only knows how to scream and crawl into my arms," Little Tiger said smugly.
" Brat, Little Yu 'er is a girl, so of course she's not as bold as you. Tell me, did you scare Little Yu' er on purpose?" Chen Zixin asked with a stern face.
" Hehe, that's right. Who asked her to get close to other boys? I was just scaring her. She can't get close to other boys. She can only play with me. This is the method you taught me," Xiaohu said jealously.
Huang Lei and the others immediately laughed when they heard that. He Jiong laughed loudly and said,"Zixin, your teaching method is good! You actually taught Little Tiger your childhood tactics."
" As expected, like brother, like brother. The tactics are all the same," Huang Lei said with a smile.
" Zixin, you taught me well," Deng Chao said with a smile.
" Brother, is this how you teach Little Tiger?" the younger sister said with a smile.
“………”。
Chen Zixin's face darkened when he heard that." Sister, get some milk and food for Xiaohu."
His sister nodded and went to get the things. Chen Zixin said, Xiaohu, come and sit down."
Xiaohu nodded and sat down. Chen Zixin asked," Xiaohu, are you confident about the mid-term exams?"
"Brother, don't worry! "I'm confident," Little Tiger said seriously.
" Alright, it's good to be confident. Is there anything else you want to talk to me about?" Chen Zixin asked.
" I'm your brother. I can't hide anything from you. If I tell you that the school wants to recommend me to participate in the provincial martial arts competition, do you think I should go?" Xiaohu asked.
" What do you think?" Chen Zixin asked.
"I don't really want to go." Xiaohu scratched his head.
" If you don't want to go, then don't go. No one's forcing you," Chen Zixin said.
" But Little Yu 'er is going! Little Tiger said gloomily.
" After all this time, you're afraid that you'll throw Little Yu 'er off the stage in the martial arts arena, afraid that Little Yu' er will be angry and ignore you, right?" Chen Zixin said gently.
" Yeah, I don't want Little Yu 'er to be angry," Xiaohu said sadly.
Are children so mature these days?" Deng Chao asked.
" I'm not sure. It looks like Little Tiger is quite interested in Little Yu 'er," He Jiong said.
" Little Yu 'er, tell Uncle if you want to participate," Huang Lei asked gently.
"If I participate and defeat Little Yu 'er, she will be angry. "I'm afraid Little Yu 'er will be bullied," Little Tiger said as he scratched his head.
" This child's thinking is quite complicated. He's in a dilemma," Huang Lei said.
" It's not a good choice," Sun Li said.
" Little Tiger, drink some milk and eat more fruits," the younger sister said as she brought over some milk and fruits.
" Thank you, Sister," Little Tiger said happily.
" You're welcome," his sister said with a smile.
Xiaohu opened the milk and drank it, thinking for a while before saying, Brother, I've decided. I'll participate in the competition. Even if Little Yu 'er is angry, I'll go."
" Mmm, you finally understand. After all, you two grew up together. Little Yu 'er won't be angry over this. Am I right? Little Yu' er, come in," Chen Zixin shouted at the door.
Huang Lei and the others looked at the door curiously. After a while, a little beauty walked in and said," Uncle, Auntie, Brother, Sister, hello, I'm Little Yu 'er."
" You're so pretty, little girl," Reba said with a smile.
" Sister, you're pretty too. As expected of my brother's wife," Little Yu 'er said.
" Little Yu 'er, you know me?" Reba asked curiously.
" I saw your photo in my brother's study. I could tell at a glance that you're my wife," Xiao Yu 'er said with a smile.
" Little Wolf, where did you get this photo? Why haven't I seen it before?" Reba asked.
Chen Zixin scratched his head and said,"We'll talk about this later. Let's deal with these two little fellows first."
Chen Zixin turned his head and said,"Little Yu 'er, you're not angry with Little Tiger, are you?"
" Brother, I won't be angry. I'll be angry if he doesn't go. Although I can't beat him, I hope he will go," said Little Yu 'er.
Xiaohu, did you hear that?"
" Brother, I heard you," Xiaohu said.
" Xiaohu, let me tell you. If you don't go, I'll ignore you for the rest of my life. I won't marry you when I grow up," Xiao Yu 'er said shyly.
" No, the child is so fierce these days. It's settled now," He Jiong said.
" How would I know? The kids nowadays are too freakish," Huang Lei said.
" No, it's too early to make a reservation now!" Deng Chao said.
" What do you mean by early? Didn't you see how beautiful Little Yu 'er is? Little Hu is very handsome. We have to act early," Xiaoming Huang said.
" I'm still single. Little Tiger and Little Fish are already set," Peng Peng said bitterly.
" Indeed, like brother, like brother. It's been like this since we were young," Reba said.
“………”。
"If you don't marry me, who will you marry?" Little Tiger said domineeringly. "We're engaged when we're young. You can only be with me. In the future, we'll go to school together and I'll protect you."
" Xiaohu, why are you so talkative? Did you learn it from me?" Little Yu 'er asked.
" That's right. Like brother, like brother. I have to learn the same tactics from him. This tactic has been tested many times. Didn't you see how my brother brought his wife home? Also, I'll carry you to and from school in the future. This is also a new tactic I learned from my brother," Xiaohu said proudly.
" Brother, you're so good that you didn't teach Xiaohu. You're quite good at teaching this," Xiao Yu 'er said angrily.
" No, I didn't teach Little Yu 'er. He learned it himself," Chen Zixin quickly waved his hand and said.
" Hmph, I don't believe you. Xiaohu, I'm thirsty," said Little Yu 'er.
" Here, I've already opened the milk. Drink it directly." Xiaohu passed the milk to Little Yu 'er.
Little Yu 'er took it and sat down to drink." Go, peel an apple for me."
Xiaohu nodded and said,"Brother, lend me your throwing knife."
" Go to the kitchen and get a fruit knife to peel it yourself," Chen Zixin said.
" Got it." Xiaohu ran into the kitchen and took out a fruit knife. Xiaohu, put down the knife. Uncle will cut it for you."
" Uncle, there's no need. Little Yu 'er only wants to eat the apple I peel. Even my brother can't. Besides, I'm tired of it." After saying that, Little Tiger started to peel the apple with a knife.
When Deng Chao saw this, he said,"Xiaohu, you're really good with this knife. Even I can't do it."
Isn't this an eight-year-old child?" He Jiong asked.
" As expected of Zixin, who taught you personally," Huang Lei said.
" This apple peeling is very professional," Sun Li said.
" Indeed. You don't look like a child at all," Xiaoming Huang said.
" Brother, did you do it on purpose? You let Xiaohu attack me. I can't even peel an apple properly. He's only eight years old," Peng Peng said.
"Now you know the gap between you and me! "Then why aren't you studying hard? Let me exaggerate something with this kid. Uncle, you can't beat him in Go," Chen Zixin said.
" I don't believe it. Not everyone is as monstrous as you," Huang Lei said.
"You don't believe me, right? Can't you just play with Little Tiger? Chen Zixin said.
" Okay, I'll play. Peng Peng, go get the chess pieces," Huang Lei said.
Peng Peng answered and took the chess piece over. Xiaohu also peeled the apple and handed it to Xiao Yu 'er. Xiao Yu' er took the rope and said," You've improved since last time."
" Of course, I learned it from you," Xiaohu said smugly.
"Go play chess! "Don't disturb me while I'm eating my apple. Remember, if you lose, I'll teach you a lesson," Little Yu 'er said.
Xiaohu nodded seriously and said,"Uncle, how do you want to play chess?"
" Xiaohu, I won't bully you. I'll give you four stones," Huang Lei said.
" No need. I don't need to give up. Although I can't beat you in chess, I'm still confident that I can beat you," Xiaohu said confidently.
" Yo, you're quite arrogant. Alright, I won't give in. I'll play with you," Huang Lei said.
" Alright, Little Yu 'er, pour me a cup of tea." After Little Tiger finished speaking, Little Yu' er walked over and poured him a cup of tea.
Xiaohu took a sip and said,"Uncle, you're an elder. Please go ahead."
Huang Lei nodded in satisfaction and started playing chess. Little Tiger suddenly changed and started playing chess as well. He Jiong asked in surprise," Xiaohu's entire person has changed. He's so imposing."
" Indeed. He's not simple at such a young age," Deng Chao said.
" You're indeed different," Xiaoming Huang said.
"Is this a child? "His aura is not weak," Peng Peng said.
" That's true. Although he doesn't have a strong aura like brother, it's rare for an eight-year-old to have such a strong aura," the younger sister said.
" As expected of Zixin, who taught you personally," Chen Qiao said as he looked at Chen Zixin with admiration.
" Little Wolf, why is your teaching so monstrous?" Reba said.
" Hehe, take your time," Chen Zixin said.
Everyone looked at Huang Lei and Little Tiger's chessboard. Chen Zixin glanced at it and said, Uncle, you've already lost."
Huang Lei said,"Impossible. I'm not playing chess with you. I don't believe I'll lose so quickly."
Chen Zixin shook his head and said,"If you don't believe me, then I'll make you believe me. Little Tiger will decide the winner."
Xiao Hu nodded and took the most crucial step. Huang Lei saw it and said, Xiaohu, you won. Uncle lost."
"Thank you, Uncle. Thank you for letting me win."
" Xiaohu, tell me, how many moves do you have?" Huang Lei asked.
" I'm a level five professional, but I'm far from being as good as you. If he wants to fight you, we'll see if he's willing to fight you in fifty moves. I'll have to fight you in eighty-seven moves. I've only learned a small part of your formations," Xiaohu said seriously.
" Oh my god, you're only an eight-year-old level 5 specialized esper. You're too freakish!" Huang Lei said.
" I can't compare to my brother. He was already at 8th dan when he was eight. I only learned his Go, Chinese chess, calligraphy, and martial arts. I don't know anything else. Little Yu 'er only knows calligraphy and martial arts," Xiaohu said.
"Heavens, Zixin, your teachings are too monstrous! "Is this an eight-year-old child? I can't believe it," He Jiong said.
" It's alright. Xiaohu, since you've agreed to participate in the competition, you better remember that you're not allowed to take any chances. You're not allowed to use despicable tactics. You're not allowed to be arrogant or complacent. If you can't do it, I'll personally cripple your martial arts," Chen Zixin said seriously.
" Brother, I'll remember your words. I'll definitely do it," Xiaohu said seriously.
"Brother, don't worry! "I'll keep an eye on Little Tiger," Little Yu 'er said.
"Alright! You two go play!" Chen Zixin said.
" Let's go, Little Yu 'er. I'll bring you to my secret base to play." After saying that, Little Tiger pulled Xiaoyu away.
When Chen Zixin heard this, he said,"You brat, go ahead. Don't mess up my things."
" Got it, brother." She ran off after saying that.
Chen Zixin shook his head and smiled." Uncle, you must have suffered a blow!"
" I'm shocked. I didn't expect Xiaohu to be so good. But how's his Chinese chess?" Huang Lei said.
"How should I put it? He should have reached the specialized level! "But defeating you, Teacher He, Peng Peng, won't be difficult at all," Chen Zixin said.
" Impressive. I'm impressed. The person taught by a monster is also a monster," Huang Lei said.
