Chapter 486 A Little Chilly All of a Sudden?
In the air, three of them chatted about interesting things that happened during this period as they flew.
They talked about Lu Liâs and Aliceâs cultivation issues and even talked about what Lu Zeâs situation at the Federal University. Very soon, the three of them had reached home.
The moment he entered the house, Lu Ze saw his mother and a beautiful black-haired lady chatting on the sofa. They seemed to be having a good time.
When Lu Ze saw this, he was slightly taken aback and before he could speak, Alice ran over and smiled. âMother, senior Lu Ze is back.â
Lu Ze turned to look at the beautiful lady and realized that she looked quite similar to Alice.
So sheâs Aliceâs mom?
Fu Shuya and Aliceâs mother also saw Lu Ze walking in. After Fu Shuya saw Lu Ze, she was surprised. She then smiled. âSon, when did you return? Why didnât you tell me in advance that youâre coming back?â Lu Ze walked over and grinned. âI just arrived not long ago. I wanted to give you a surprise. How is it? Are you surprised?â
When Fu Shuya heard that, she rolled her eyes at Lu Ze. âYouâre already the Monarch of the New Dawn, why are you still so playful?!â Although Fu Shuya sounded like she was scolding him, the smile on her face couldnât be concealed. She stroked Lu Zeâs face with a complex gaze. âYouâve really grown up and become a man of indomitable spirit.â
She saw how Lu Ze fought on the battlefield and that terrifying void beast still made her heart beat quickly.
Although she didnât really want Lu Ze to fight in the frontline, she couldnât say it out loud.
All she could do was to pray for Lu Ze.
Lu Ze saw Fu Shuyaâs complex gaze, and his eyes glistened, then he grinned. âOf course, Iâm very strong now.â Now that it was the holidays, Lu Ze planned on letting his parents use the red orbs.
With uncle Merlinâs protection, he didnât have to worry about their safety, but if their cultivation increased, their lifespan would increase too. Lu Ze obviously wanted his parents to live a long life.
At this moment, Aliceâs mother, who had been looking at Lu Ze, said, âShuya, your precious son is indeed very strong, much stronger than I was before.â
When Fu Shuya heard that, she suddenly recalled that Aliceâs mother was there. She introduced her to Lu Ze. âSon, this is Aliceâs mother, Zhu Hong Lian, you can call her Aunty Hong Lian.â
Lu Ze smiled at Zhu Hong Lian, âHello, Aunty Hong Lian, congratulations on recovering.â
Zhu Hong Lian looked at Lu Ze with her beautiful eyes, then she smiled. âI have to thank you, Ze. If not for you, Alice and I would probably be dead by now.â Lu Ze scratched his head in embarrassmentthis was the truth, but he felt that Alice was a good girl and Liâs good friend, so obviously he chose to help her.
It wasnât nice to claim credit for this, so Lu Ze didnât really know how to respond.
At this moment, Lu Wen entered, and after he saw Lu Ze, he froze up and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Thereafter, he composed himself and nodded plainly at Lu Ze. âYouâre back?â
Before Lu Ze could reply, Fu Shuya rolled her eyes at Lu Wen. âOld Lu, what kind of reaction is this? Youâre still pretending when our son is already back?â
Lu Wenâs face fell. He felt wronged when he heard that.
He wasnât pretending?
As a father, he should be calm and composed,
right??
Lu Ze looked at Fu Shuyaâs and Lu Wenâs familiar interactions. He smiled immediately.
It felt great to be home. Hm... although he had to tolerate a public display of affection every day. Just then, Fu Shuya stood up and exclaimed cheerfully, âSince Ze is back, Iâll prepare dinner tonight.â
When Zhu Hong Lian heard that, she smiled and stood up. âIâll cook with you then. Treat it as a thank you gift to Lu Ze.â
When Alice and Lu Li heard that, they froze. They wanted to prepare a good meal for Lu Ze at first and didnât expect that they would be intercepted by two big bosses.
Obviously, both of them couldnât really object to Fu Shuyaâs and Zhu Hong Lianâs request, so they could only give up.
On the other hand, Lu Ze was quite excited. It had been so long since he ate his motherâs cooking, and he hadnât tasted Aunty Hong Lianâs cooking before.
After all, uncle Merlin was such a good cook, so Aunty Hong Lian wouldnât be bad, right?
Both of them went into the kitchen, and his father smiled widely at him as he placed an arm around Lu Zeâs shoulder. âZe, I didnât expect that youâre so amazing. You actually found three girlfriends. In principle, I donât agree with your actions, but since you guys are already this way, then I donât really care.â Lu Ze: â???â
Lu Ze was stunned as he looked at that wry smile across Lu Wenâs handsome face.
Since when did he have three girlfriends?!
He didnât even know it himself?
At this moment, Lu Li smiled at Lu Wen with a gentle smile. âDad, big brother, and teacher Nangong donât have that sort of relationship. Youâre mistaken.â
Lu Wen felt a chill down his spine. He trembled slightly, then, he looked at Lu Ze doubtfully. âIâm mistaken? Isnât it a four-sided relationship?â
Lu Ze: â...â
So he was referring to the vixen and those two! Lu Zeâs mouth twitched, and he rolled his eyes at Lu Wen. âDad, youâre overthinking.â
He must be joking, even if Lu Ze wanted a four-sided relationship, he would probably be killed by those three girls, right?
The moment Lu Ze thought about Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha, he couldnât help but tremble.
He couldnât afford to piss them off.
Furthermore, they didnât have that sort of relationship.
Lu Li and Alice heaved a sigh of relief when they heard what Lu Ze said.
Lu Wen had a look of regret that his offspring didnât live up to his expectations. âZe, you must work harder...â
Before he could finish, he felt a chill around his body.
He rubbed his neck and looked around. âWhy does it feel a little chilly all of a sudden?â
At this moment, Lu Li smiled and said, âDad, go put on more clothes. Donât fall sick.â
Lu Wenâs power was only at the refinement stage, and he wasnât young anymore. His cultivation was basically useless, and he might really fall ill if he wasnât careful.
When Lu Wen heard that, he nodded. He was a little moved-indeed, his daughter doted on him the most.
Lu Wen stood up and smiled. âIâll go put on more clothes.â
After Lu Wen went upstairs, Lu Ze looked at Lu Li with a strange look.
Sheâs the cause of it, right?
Lu Li noticed Lu Zeâs stare and immediately looked straight at him with those black eyes of hers. âWhat is it, big brother?â
Lu Ze: â... nothing, nothing at all.â
Lu Ze felt that he might need to put on more clothes as well.
Just then, Merlin walked in and after he saw Lu Ze, he was stunned, and his mouth twitched. He smiled coldly at Lu Ze. âOh, Ze is back?â
As he spoke, he looked around the living room and turned to Alice suspiciously. âAlice, whereâs your mother?â
Alice smiled and pointed in the kitchen. âMom and Aunty Shuya are preparing tonightâs dinner.â
Merlin was stunned. âWhy did Hong Lian want to cook?â
Alice smiled. âMom said that she wanted to thank senior Lu Ze, so she was going to cook personally.â
When Merlin heard that, he was silent. He then nodded. âGot it.â
Hm... although it was reasonable, he was still a little jealous!
Indeed, nothing good happens when this bastard Lu Ze is back!
But Merlin couldnât get angry, so he forced a smile on his face.
An hour later, Fu Shuya and Zhu Hong Lian placed the dishes on the table. The enticing fragrance cause Lu Ze to keep looking over.
Fu Shuya smiled and said, âTime to eat.â
Half an hour later, Lu Ze leaned against the sofa with a face of satisfaction.
It had been a long time since he ate his motherâs cooking, and Aunty Hong Lian was great at cooking too, so he was very happy.
Lu Wen sat next to him and had a satisfied look as well. Next to Lu Wen was Merlin.
Just as Lu Ze was feeling satisfied and happy, Merlinâs voice came over. âBrat, Iâve to thank you for this time. Alice and Hong Lian are the most important people to me. Let me know if you need anything in the future. My words still have some authority in the Federation.â
Lu Ze turned to look at Merlin, and seeing that Merlin didnât look over, Lu Ze shifted his gaze as well.
Lu Ze replied, âUncle Merlin, youâre too kind, I just find that Alice is a nice girl and she shouldnât die like that.â
Merlin was silent and replied defensively, âEven if you said this, donât you dare have any thoughts about Alice. Even if you do, you must wait a thousand years later before sheâs considered an adult!â
Lu Ze: â...â
Er... Uncle Merlin has a pretty skewed understanding of the definition of an adult, huhA thousand years? Isnât that a few generations for ordinary people?
However, he didnât dare to argue with Uncle Merlin regarding this issue; otherwise, he felt that he would get beaten up.
He wisely changed the subject and said, âIs there anyone targeting my family recently?â Merlin sneered and replied, âThere are, and there was one time when a dozen people from the blade demon race that was close to the planetary state level came over. Seems like the blade demon race really hates you to the core, huh.â
âBut itâs expected. They probably knew about your talent and felt threatened?â Lu Zeâs eyes glistened.
Indeed...
After all, he had such a high profile in the Federation, and the blade demon race definitely heard about him. Thankfully, Uncle Merlin was here to keep watch.
Lu Ze smiled and replied, âThank you, Uncle Merlin.â
Merlin smiled, âThis is a small thing, itâs just lifting my finger to me.â
