Chapter 415: Chapter 415 Reunion

“Of course.”

Su Jin said with a smile, leaving the latter part of the sentence unsaid: anyway, you’re the one who’s paying.

Considering that Liang Jiuhui still needed to settle Dr. Pei and the others, and since it was already getting dark, Su Jin and the group decided to head back first.

“Tomorrow…”

Although Liang Jiuhui wanted to discuss the Mercenary Corps with them, he knew now was not the time.

“We’ll come find you for the task reward tomorrow morning,”

Lu Hao said, and then bid farewell to everyone present.

Liang Jiuhui just smiled happily. The reward was easy to handle; as long as they were willing to come tomorrow, it was fine.

…

The family hadn’t expected Su Jin and the others to arrive at the base tonight.

When Liao Yifan heard the knocking at the door and went to open it, her eyes immediately widened in surprise.

“Su Jin! Captain Lu! Qiqi! You’re all back!”

Liao Yifan excitedly gave Su Jin a big hug. God knows how worried they had been about Su Jin and Lu Hao’s team these past days. They had not expected them to finally return!

“Sister Yifan, at least let me in before you start,”

said Lin Xiuyuan and the others, watching the two blocking the entrance.

“Xiao Jin? I thought you wouldn’t arrive until…”

Lin Tianhui stopped mid-sentence when Huang Yunxiang nudged her; she realized she almost let something slip. They had all thought it would be the next day before the group could return.

“Did we come back too quickly and surprise all of you?” Su Jin asked with a smile.

“How could that be? We’ve been missing you to death,”

said Guo Yang, almost on the verge of tears. He had been longing for the delicious food from Su Jin’s space. These past days, he was tired of eating mixed sauce noodles and those pickled meats; even the vegetables Yin Chengtian hurriedly grew were inferior to those in Su Jin’s space.

“This is…”

Xue Wanyi, besides feeling happy, also noticed Lian Jiyue standing next to Qiqi.

“A friend who ran into some trouble and lost his memory,”

Lu Hao explained Lian Jiyue’s situation briefly to everyone. During the explanation, Lian Jiyue himself sat beside Mao Qiqi, his eyes devoid of any ripples, and remained seated only because Qiqi had asked him to.

“So, only Qiqi can understand what he means?”

Mao Zhihang asked, wondering if this was what Lin Xiuyuan referred to as Qiqi’s “Flower Guardian.”

Lin Tianzhen also kept glancing between her daughter and Lian Jiyue.

Lian Jiyue, who appeared to be in his twenties, just sat there silently. Only when Qiqi spoke did some focus return to his eyes.

A person with amnesia shouldn’t be like this, right?

“Yes, and he seems to have damaged his brain somehow. He acts like he doesn’t understand anything,”

Lin Xiuyuan whispered to the family, recounting how earlier he hadn’t even known how to use chopsticks.

…

Everyone in the room, upon hearing this, looked at Lian Jiyue with sympathy. Was it really that bad?

“Brother Xiuyuan, he’s not stupid, he just doesn’t remember a lot of things,”

Mao Qiqi tried to defend him. How could Xiao Yue, who was so formidable, be stupid?

“That’s not stupid? Cough cough, let’s eat first, haha,”

Lin Xiuyuan somehow felt that after Mao Qiqi spoke, Lian Jiyue gave him another one of those cold looks.

“Right, right, right, let’s eat, I’ve made some food too,”

“`

Huang Yunxiang was about to go into the kitchen to bring out the dishes she had prepared—or more accurately, the dishes she had cut up such as marinated meat, pickles, braised eggs, and so forth, to be paired with the cooked rice porridge they had been eating these past few days along with Guo Yang and the others.

“Su Jin…”

Liao Yifan held her long-absent Local Tyrant Gold and looked at Su Jin with puppy dog eyes. She wasn’t picky about food; she just missed it so much…

“Auntie, we can consider these as side dishes. There are so many of us, I will just take out some more dishes,”

Su Jin’s words triggered a unanimous cheer from everyone. Yin Chengtian and Shi Jin had already swiftly begun to clean up the dining table, Nie Qing comfortably leaned on the sofa, recounting to Lu Guanhai the events of the past few days, while Su Xiangzhe, Lin Cheng, and a few others listened carefully.

“I must go next time, it’s such a pity I missed it this time,”

Lu Guanhai smacked his thigh in regret.

“Right? I really want to see it too,”

Lin Cheng also thought of the village where the Earth Element Ability User they encountered could show off his powers, regretting not having gone along.

“Uncle, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future; we are just getting started,”

Su Jin said while placing a variety of delicious dishes on the dining table, making Xue Wanyi and the others fixate with wide eyes.

Sweet and sour ribs, potato with fatty beef, poached shrimp, chicken stewed with mushrooms, dry-fried green beans, steamed scallops with vermicelli, stir-fried baby squash…

Oh, how wonderful it is to have Su Jin back!!!

“Yin Chengtian, how’s your Wood Element Ability now?”

After the table had filled up with people, Su Jin asked.

“Sister-in-law, thanks to your blessings, I’ve already advanced to Level Three,”

Yin Chengtian proudly straightened his back as he finished speaking and even conjured a curved and winding rose vine to show everyone.

The rose vine was brown, covered in green leaves, and even had two rose flowers blooming; however, Su Jin could see that the vine was much thicker than it was before she left.

“Really nice. I’ll tell you, that Han Jiajia’s vine is far inferior to yours. I managed to break it with just a tug, and she’s at Level Four,”

Liao Yifan, while enjoying the soft and palatable potatoes, began to tell everyone about Han Jiajia.

“Yeah, that little girl, I don’t know what she’s so arrogant about. Our Yifan knocked her out in just three moves,”

Guo Yang said with a look of disdain.

“Who is yours? And it was clearly only two moves, okay?”

Liao Yifan rolled her eyes at Guo Yang and retorted coquettishly; her moves had consisted of nothing more than a punch and a kick, which had sent Han Jiajia straight to the ground, knocked out.

“It’s probably because Wood Element Ability Users naturally advance slowly, often lack proper technique, and she also had good resources at her disposal, which is why she was so self-satisfied,”

Su Jin spoke while eating and analyzing.

At this moment, Lin Tianzhen saw Lian Jiyue pinch a poached shrimp and stuff the whole thing into his mouth.

“…”

So, should she correct him or not?

“Ah, there’s nothing like enjoying a home-cooked meal together as a family,”

Lu Guanhai remarked sentimentally, as everyone sat around, eating and chatting, the food tasted even better.

“Isn’t that the truth? Xiao Tian and I have been counting the days, hoping that Captain Lu and sister-in-law would come back soon,”

Shi Jin said without looking up from his food.

Meanwhile, Xue Wanyi shared his recent achievement with everyone; he had successfully gone from a Level Three Wind Element to Level Four, and most of the members in his training group had advanced under his coaching.

“Pff, you guys have no idea how he trained those team members. He took them out to kill zombies every day. They cleared out all the zombies around the base, causing the smaller teams to grumble non-stop,”

Liao Yifan chuckled as she teased. Some timid teams dared not venture far to kill zombies and preferred to do it near the base. However, Xue Wanyi’s group would clear the surroundings of the base so thoroughly each morning that not even zombie corpses were left—they used them to practice controlling and sustaining Wind Element abilities.

“Psh, look who’s talking. Don’t you train your team members by making them spar each other every day?”

Xue Wanyi responded while tossing a peanut into his mouth.
