Section 771

But they were trapped for millions of years!

Trapped for millions of years in this dark, lonely place.

What a torment that was.

For example, Old Ye Zan is a very obvious example.

Before going crazy, he constantly hypnotized himself every day.

Listening to Xu Zi'an's words.

Old Lu had a sheepish expression, but he didn't leave.

He remained in the restaurant, waiting for the time to come.

Originally.

Xu Zi'an thought they were leaving the Anti-Universe today.

And he had successfully led everyone to complete two assaults on the Alien Race and the Hyena Human Race.

He had also found so many ancestors and rescued Miao Xiaomi's family.

So, before leaving today, he decided to have a celebration banquet.

Who knew that, besides Xu Zi'an and the Ladies,

The rest of the people had no interest in eating at all.

Li Shitao and the others who came in with Xu Zi'an were fine.

But Old Lu and the others had absolutely no desire to eat.

They ate distractedly.

Xu Zi'an shook his head and ignored them.

If they didn't eat,

Xu Zi'an would.

He put a few slices of yellow mutton from Earth into the pot, swished them around, and after a few seconds,

He added one slice each to Qin Fuyue's, Haitang's, and Miao Xiaomi's bowls.

The last slice, he put into his own bowl.

Don't ask why.

The answer is that one night a year ago, Miao Xiaomi forcefully pinned Xu Zi'an down.

She called it gratitude for Xu Zi'an saving her family.

Of course, that reason was also there.

However, Qin Fuyue, Hu Qiqi, and the other Ladies were perfectly clear—

Miao Xiaomi was purely just finding an excuse for herself.

Of course, no one knew if Xu Zi'an himself knew.

But the other Ladies…

Including Miao Xiaomi's mother, Miao Linglan, were well aware of her daughter's little thoughts.

Although…

Her daughter and Xu Zi'an were together.

And Xu Zi'an already had two women, Qin Fuyue and Haitang.

However,

Miao Linglan had no dissatisfaction whatsoever.

It was still that saying.

The Universe Interstellar Era was an era where the strong were supremely respected.

What's more,

Miao Linglan could tell.

There was indeed true love between Xu Zi'an and her daughter.

Since her daughter was willing and happy,

Then as a mother, she naturally wouldn't say another word.

Watching Xu Zi'an pick up the meat slices for Qin Fuyue, Haitang, and Miao Xiaomi,

Hu Qiqi's little mouth couldn't help but pout.

It was pink and plump.

She looked adorable.

She indicated that she was very unhappy.

She looked at Xu Zi'an pitifully.

Her meaning was already very clear.

Bai Xiaoyuan was even more so, like a little bullied child, she secretly glanced at Xu Zi'an.

But she dared not say anything.

Qu Tiange…

Had a similar personality to Bai Xiaoyuan.

Both were soft and gentle.

Liu Yuyu, on the other hand, was very direct, reaching out with her chopsticks to take the meat slice from Xu Zi'an's bowl into her own, and ate it with relish.

Qi Jingyi looked at Liu Yuyu speechlessly, shaking her head helplessly.

Mu Ziqiu, however, was still so… S.

She smiled gently at Xu Zi'an, her beautiful and gentle, water-like big eyes, smooth as silk, looked at her own bowl, then at Xu Zi'an.

She gave Xu Zi'an a 'you know' look.

Xu Zi'an rolled his eyes.

Even eating hotpot wasn't peaceful.

Without another word,

He directly picked up the plate of mutton from the table and poured the whole thing into the pot.

A few seconds later,

He scooped it out directly, not missing a single one of the Ladies' bowls.

He put a chopstick-full into each one.

He didn't care how many pieces of meat there were.

Even Qi Jingyi's and Miao Linglan's bowls, and even Tai Mei's and Tai Ji's bowls, received some.

Tai Mei and Tai Ji immediately shrank their necks, too scared to even squeak, and lowered their heads, eating frantically.

They dared not make eye contact with Qin Fuyue and the other Ladies at all.

Qi Jingyi was startled, then chuckled and shook her head, but she also happily ate the meat slices her Junior Brother had picked for her.

And Miao Linglan was also startled.

She looked at Xu Zi'an and opened her mouth, seeing that Xu Zi'an had only incidentally picked meat slices for her and had no other meaning, and that her own daughter didn't care about this point at all, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

That instant just now…

She was actually quite terrified.

What if…

She didn't dare to think.

She really didn't dare to think!

Xu Zi'an's wave of actions, besides earning him those beautiful little eye-rolls from the Ladies,

Did not cause any trouble, and he safely passed this checkpoint.

After finishing the meal,

The time,

Was also just about right.

Nearby,

Old Lu and the others had long been waiting restlessly.

Seeing Xu Zi'an wave his hand, Old Lu and the others were instantly ecstatic.
