[Look at the little cutie's pale face, it breaks my heart.]
Seeing Xiaomi stand up, cover her little paws and make a gesture like Xi Shi holding her heart, Lu Yulan couldn't help but laugh.
"Has anyone ever told you that you look like the Black Mountain Demon now, only picking on young boys?"
Millet:……
Lu Yulan: Hahahaha!
After laughing, I went back to cooking. The key to this braised dish is the heat control; it's not that you can just keep adding spices and expect it to taste good.
The various spices should be appropriate and complement each other.
Remove the fishy smell, enhance the aroma, improve the freshness, remove bitterness and astringency, add numbing and spicy flavors—all are essential.
It's just right when it's cooked to a rich, dark brown color and the aroma fills the whole house.
Seeing Lu Yulan quietly cooking with a smile on her lips, Lu's younger brother couldn't help but swallow hard, startled.
"Yan Baobao, stay with Mommy. Uncle has other things to do."
With that, she grabbed Wu Lin and led him back to his room without looking back.
"What's wrong? Why are you so scared?"
Lu's younger brother: "Do you think Sister Lan might turn her love into hatred and poison me to death?"
Wu Lin: "Did a flamingo eat your brain lately?"
She kicked Lu's younger brother, saying, "Just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush. There are two of us, and you're still being so roundabout."
Lu's younger brother sat down on the ground and scratched his messy hair. "I feel like something's wrong."
"kindness?"
Wu Lin picked up a sunflower seed from the side, cracked it open, and found the taste was alright. "Continue."
"I mean, I feel like something's wrong with my older brother. Before his accident, he clearly liked Sister Lan, and he didn't even know Julie. Why would he..."
"There are fewer women, as the general said. Liking is a feeling that can change easily. For example, I now prefer sunflower seeds, whereas I used to like pumpkin seeds."
Lu's younger brother: ...
"Can't we have a conversation? Those sunflower seeds have been sitting there for half a year, please put them down."
Wu Lin shrugged. "Okay, you say that General Lu was indeed a little strange or unfamiliar just now, but Marshal Lu himself admitted it. What are you worried about? It's probably just amnesia. It'll be fine in a while. Could it be that there's something fake under that skin?"
Lu's younger brother: !!!
Wu Lin took a step back. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Yes, it's fake. I feel like everything about it is fake except for that face and that body!"
Lu's younger brother was pacing around the room; that was exactly the feeling he was talking about, but he didn't want to admit it.
Wu Lin's face contorted in pain.
"What a joke, Lu Fangyao. Who in this world can fake their combat strength and mental power to be the same as General Lu? Are you crazy?"
Lu Fangyao sat down somewhat dejectedly. "Yeah, that's impossible."
"But I don't feel much of a connection. I don't feel like he's my older brother. My older brother wouldn't..."
Wu Lin patted Lu's younger brother on the shoulder, "Don't worry, if you're really worried, you can keep an eye on him every day. There's bound to be a flaw, okay?"
"You're just imagining things because you haven't seen General Lu for too long."
He glanced at the personal terminal in his hand and said, "Sister Lan, what's the call for dinner? Let's go."
As soon as they went downstairs, they found that there were quite a few people there, including Gu Luobing and his wife, as well as Wei Guang and Chi Huo.
But Chu Rui was nowhere to be seen.
Where is Chu Rui?
Lu Yulan clearly remembered sending messages to both of them; could she have forgotten?
Chi Huo looked at Lu Yulan, his expression hesitant, "Chu Rui, he, he's not coming."
"Why?"
"I saw him board the Bai family's spaceship. He's been acting strangely lately!"
