Back in the house, Zhao Hongyu was in a good mood, and she invited everyone to dinner. In fact, dinner was already ready, but Ciyun Dragon King's sudden visit forced them to put it aside.
"Auntie, I've already eaten," Xie Yujia said softly when she saw Zhao Hongyu bringing the dishes out of the kitchen.
"It's okay. Come and eat!" Zhao Hongyu put the last dish on the table and walked to Xie Yujia. She grabbed Xie Yujia's arm and pulled her to the table.
"Oh … Thank you, Auntie." Xie Yujia smiled embarrassedly at Zhao Hongyu's enthusiasm and sat down.
"Here, Yujia." Zhao Hongyu put the bowl and chopsticks in front of Xie Yujia.
Zhao Yanzi sat across from Xie Yujia and looked unhappy.
"Zi, go get the food!" Zhao Hongyu glanced at Zhao Yanzi.
Zhao Yanzi pouted and went to the kitchen to get the food.
Hao Ren smiled. He could understand how Zhao Yanzi felt. He was a bit jealous when Yue Yang and Hao Zhonghua favored Xie Yujia.
"Yujia, it's not your first time here. You're welcome." Zhao Hongyu was in a good mood, and she talked to Xie Yujia with a smile.
Xie Yujia nodded shyly. She picked up the chopsticks and ate the vegetables carefully.
"Have some meat!" Zhao Hongyu picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Xie Yujia's bowl.
Xie Yujia was a bit embarrassed by Zhao Hongyu's enthusiasm. However, Zhao Hongyu's cooking skills were better than Xie Yujia's. The braised pork was fragrant and delicious.
"Humph!"
Zhao Yanzi couldn't stand it anymore. She picked up a big piece of braised pork and put it in Hao Ren's bowl.
Hao Ren was eating in silence, and he was surprised. "Why did I have to come?"
"Eat more!" Zhao Yanzi pouted and said to Hao Ren.
"Ok …" Hao Ren lowered his head and took a bite of the braised pork.
Zhao Yanzi putting food into Hao Ren's bowl was supposed to be a sweet and heartwarming thing, but no matter how Hao Ren looked at it, it seemed like she was angry and angry.
"Yujia, try this too." Zhao Hongyu glanced at Zhao Yanzi helplessly before putting another piece of steamed carp into Xie Yujia's bowl.
Since Xie Yujia wasn't from the East Ocean Dragon Clan, she didn't have to make elixir pills for the East Ocean Dragon Clan. Making level 4 elixir pills consumed a lot of nature essence no matter how fast or slow the process was. Zhao Hongyu was trying to express her gratitude, but Zhao Yanzi was jealous.
"Eat this!" Zhao Yanzi pinched off a piece of fish tail and put it in his bowl.
In the blink of an eye, his bowl was filled to the brim.
Tuk tuk!
Zhao Guang rapped his fingers on the table.
Zhao Yanzi withdrew her arm unwillingly, but she was still upset. "Why is my mom so nice to Xie Yujia?" she thought.
"I wasn't just being polite. Yujia is well-mannered, and I like you a lot. That's why I treat you like my daughter," Zhao Hongyu said to Yujia.
"This …" Xie Yujia blushed.
Even if what happened today aside, Zhao Hongyu had been nice to her in the past.
Xie Yujia was gentle and elegant, unlike Zhao Yanzi who was crazy and liked by the elders. On the other hand, Zhao Hongyu was gentle and always emitted the radiance of motherly love.
"If our Zi was half as sensible as Yujia, I would save a lot of effort," Zhao Hongyu continued.
"Mom …" Zhao Yanzi called out lightly, dissatisfied.
With Zhao Guang standing beside her with a stern face, she didn't dare to yell at the dinner table.
"Zi is also very lively and cute," Xie Yujia said.
"Hehe." Zhao Hongyu smiled and thought, "It seems like it's impossible to make the lawless Zhao Yanzi become like Xie Yujia."
In fact, she didn't mind taking in another daughter, but Xie Yujia probably wouldn't like it.
The Soul Formation Realm cultivator had laid the foundation for Zhao Yanzi's cultivation techniques, and the Soul Formation Realm cultivator had asked Xie Yujia to teach Zhao Yanzi the specific cultivation techniques. Therefore, according to the rules of the cultivation sects, Xie Yujia was Zhao Yanzi's senior sister, and the Soul Formation Realm cultivator had accepted Zhao Yanzi as her half-disciple. From all the signs, Xie Yujia had taken good care of Zhao Yanzi.
If it weren't for Hao Ren, Zhao Yanzi wouldn't be at odds with Xie Yujia. Zhao Hongyu knew this very well.
She turned to look at Hao Ren and found that he was eating with his head down, pretending not to see the anger in Zhao Yanzi's eyes.
"Ren has suffered a lot …" Zhao Hongyu shook her head with a smile and thought.
Dinner passed peacefully, and Zhao Guang asked about Zhao Yanzi's final exams in the middle of the meal. Zhao Yanzi was so angry that she couldn't say a word.
Zhao Yanzi's head drooped, and she lost all her vigor. Her academic performance was her weakness. She didn't work hard in cultivation, and her academic performance was poor. How could she be competitive in this family?
After dinner, Xie Yujia offered to help clean the table, and Zhao Hongyu didn't refuse.
Zhao Yanzi wrinkled her nose and showed her two little canine teeth as she watched the two girls working together. She looked like she was ready to bite someone at any moment.
Hao Ren sat on the sofa and stayed far away from her, afraid that he would become a victim of Zhao Yanzi's anger.
"Auntie, sorry for bothering you today. Thank you for your hospitality."
Xie Yujia bowed slightly and said to Zhao Hongyu after cleaning up the table.
"Not at all. I can't thank you enough! I haven't thanked you for the Beauty Pill last time, "Zhao Hongyu said with a smile.
"It's nothing." Xie Yujia smiled sweetly.
"Ok, Ren will go back with you. You can come and eat with me when you have time. Ren sometimes helps out in my studio on the weekends, and you can come and see him, "Zhao Hongyu said softly with her signature gentle smile.
"Ok. Thank you, Auntie!" Xie Yujia nodded slightly, showing her good manners.
Her own parents were in the U.S. and couldn't take care of her. Yue Yang cared a lot about her life, but she was a hard-working female scientist after all, not as gentle and considerate as Zhao Hongyu.
Zhao Hongyu's motherly love made Xie Yujia feel warm from the bottom of her heart.
"Go back and rest early. Your final exams are next week, so study hard," Zhao Hongyu said gently. Then, she yelled, "Ren, go back early!"
Hao Ren jumped up from the sofa and ran to the door cautiously in case Zhao Yanzi bit him.
The Ferrari was still parked outside, and it wouldn't be a problem to take Xie Yujia back.
"Mom … I want … I want …" Zhao Yanzi stood up and murmured.
Zhao Hongyu had raised Zhao Yanzi for more than ten years, and she knew what was on Zhao Yanzi's mind.
She smiled and said, "Ok. If you want to stay at Ren's place, go. The final exams are over anyway. "
Hearing this, Zhao Yanzi jumped up happily and ran to the door. After all, Zhao Hongyu still loved her. She didn't care about Hao Ren's expression at all.
Hao Ren couldn't stop her if she wanted to stay at Hao Ren's place. If he didn't let her, she would use Hao Ren's grandma as a lethal weapon.
"However, when the final exams are out, if you don't get in the top three in your class, you won't be able to go out this summer," Zhao Hongyu continued.
Zhao Yanzi's footsteps suddenly froze. She walked slowly to Hao Ren's side and became more obedient. Suddenly, she realized that she still needed Hao Ren's help. If her grades didn't meet Zhao Hongyu's expectations, even Hao Ren's grandma couldn't help her unless Hao Ren spoke up for her.
"Let's go, let's go." Seeing Zhao Yanzi's uncertain face, Hao Ren felt helpless and led Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi out of the house.
The Ferrari was still parked on the other side of the road. This super cool limited-edition Ferrari now revealed its biggest weakness; it couldn't take two beauties for a ride at the same time.
"I'll go back in Little White," Xie Yujia said.
She put up an energy sphere, and Little White, who was following her, immediately turned into its snow lion form.
Swoosh … Little White flew into the sky with Xie Yujia on its back.
Ordinary cultivators couldn't fly at low altitudes in the city, but the cultivators in East Ocean City were jointly managed by Su Han and Hao Ren. Besides, as the disciple of a grandmaster in the Soul Formation Realm, Xie Yujia had this privilege.
Zhao Yanzi looked at the red ball that was flying toward the beach and pouted. Then, she got into the car.
Boom! Boom!
Hao Ren started the Ferrari and drove toward the seaside, leaving behind a trail of yellow light.
When he got home, Xie Yujia had already gone back to her room through the window.
Little White returned to its puppy form and jumped on the living room floor to bite an apple in Grandma's hand, making Grandma laugh.
"Gongzi!" Hao Ren was startled by the sudden appearance of Lu Linlin and Lu Lili.
"Poor girls. Their grandpa is on a business trip, and they don't have a place to eat," Grandma said to Hao Ren while holding Little White in her arms.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili huddled together and pretended to be pitiful.
Hao Ren was speechless since he knew that Lu Qing was in East Ocean City. However, Lu Qing didn't know how to cook, and the Lu sisters didn't have much to eat.
"Grandma, I'll take Little White." Hao Ren grabbed the small piece of skin on the back of Little White's neck and carried it to the stairs.
This little guy had learned how to please Grandma after it found out that Xie Yujia secretly put elixir pills in the food Grandma gave it.
"Gongzi …" Lu Linlin and Lu Lili followed Hao Ren upstairs.
"Grandma!" Zhao Yanzi entered the room and greeted Grandma sweetly before following Hao Ren upstairs.
Xie Yujia opened the door of her room and saw Hao Ren carrying Little White upstairs. She smiled at Grandma and went upstairs as well.
Sitting on the sofa, Grandma smiled when she saw the four girls following Hao Ren upstairs.
"It's said that Little White's poop can catalyze spiritual herbs. We can try it today," Hao Ren said after they walked into the room and out to the balcony.
"Ok!" Xie Yujia's eyes lit up. She also wanted to confirm if the secret technique was correct. However, she had been busy studying and didn't have time to test it.
Both she and Hao Ren were science and engineering students, so they had the spirit of experimentation.
Hao Ren grabbed a pot of cactus from the balcony and put it under Little White's butt before squatting down to check on it.
Zhao Yanzi blinked her big eyes curiously. She squatted down and stared at Little White.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili also squatted down and surrounded Little White. They put their elbows on their knees and supported their chins with their palms.
Xie Yujia squatted down beside Hao Ren and stared at Little White's butt nervously. She was an elixir master, and it was important to her if Little White's poop had the legendary magical effect.
Little White, who was trapped in the middle, had its butt against the cactus, and its legs were trembling.
