Qin Nan smiled and took Tao Xiaolu's hand, inviting Xuan Yu to go into the backyard together. Just as they entered the backyard, Bai Hao leisurely walked out of the house. Tao Xiaolu subconsciously hid behind Qin Nan, but Bai Hao didn't even look at him. He passed by the three of them, patted Xuan Yu's head, and went straight into the front hall.
Tao Xiaolu looked relieved, chewed quickly, and swallowed what was in his mouth.
Qin Nan went into the kitchen and brought a bunch of food for Tao Xiaolu. Xuan Yu also got some to eat. Qin Nan looked at the somewhat empty kitchen. He hadn't been able to cook anything properly these past few days because of all the things that had happened. He figured He Yan's matter was probably almost over. Tonight, he would buy some more things online and then make a whole bunch of snacks.
Moreover, the weather forecast says it will snow tomorrow. I don't know if it will be a light snow like in early winter or a heavy snow. He can make some pickles from the cabbage he stored up before, and buy some white radishes and carrots to make vegetarian meatballs.
Xuan Yu munched on snacks without any inhibitions, while Tao Xiaolu watched longingly, glancing at Qin Nan every now and then.
Qin Nan: "What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
Tao Xiaolu quickly shook his head: "Of course not, it's just that, I can eat this, right?"
Qin Nan nodded: "Sure."
Tao Xiaolu: "Do we need to pay?"
Qin Nan: "......"
Xuan Yu almost choked on the bread roll. After taking a sip of water to calm down, while Qin Nan was speechless, she flattened a bread roll and stuffed it directly into Tao Xiaolu's mouth.
Qin Nan was truly impressed by Tao Xiaolu's actions. How could she ask for money just for a snack? Had she been ripped off by Bai Hao before?
"Eat your food and shut up!" Xuan Yu threw away the packaging bag and patted the bread crumbs off her hand.
Qin Nan smiled and said gently, "No need to pay, eat up!"
Tao Xiaolu immediately perked up: "Thank you, Brother Anan!"
Qin Nan shook her head and chuckled. Seeing that they were enjoying their meal, she went to the front hall to see what was going on with Bai Hao.
He Yan sat on the sofa with his head down in silence, Bai Hao sat on the sofa playing with his phone, Qin Nan walked in and sat down, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
Bai Hao: "It will take at least a few more days for things to be resolved. Think it over carefully."
He Yan looked up at Bai Hao, feeling somewhat annoyed and conflicted: "Tell me everything."
Bai Hao: "Don't you want to hear him say it himself?"
He Yan: [I don't want to see him.]
Bai Hao: [What about your promise?]
He Yan: [I...I don't know, but I don't understand why he...]
Bai Hao: [Do you really not understand, or do you simply not want to understand?]
He Yan fell silent. He didn't know how to face Wu Yulin. He no longer knew what he should believe and what he shouldn't believe.
Qin Nan saw that the two of them looked bewildered. He Yan seemed to be in great pain and distress, while Bai Hao remained calm and composed. She had no idea what had happened.
Qin Nan forgot to ask He Yan about it before, so she might still know some things about her father's past.
Time passed slowly, and He Yan remained seated. Bai Hao and Qin Nan did not disturb him until noon. Qin Nan went to cook, while Bai Hao idly sat on the side, browsing the news on his phone.
After finishing their snacks and cleaning up the trash, Tao Xiaolu and Xuan Yu sat obediently on the sofa to watch TV. Tao Xiaolu had been traveling around with Tao Duo and hadn't really enjoyed a quiet day, so he was a little unaccustomed to it. Fortunately, Xuan Yu was there, but that didn't stop his chatterbox.
"This is an animated film. I've seen it on TV in the mall before. It's really fun. Don't you have anything to do here? Can you watch TV every day? Can you play games?"
Is this a watch? Wait a minute! This isn't one of those watch phones advertised on TV! Wow! Uncle Xuan is so generous, buying you this? I remember Tengxue had one too, right? And didn't Pi Xiaoyuan have one too? Chi Wei definitely has one too, right? Can you play games with it? Do you have a cell phone? Do you play games?
Xuan Yu was driven crazy by Tao Xiaolu's nagging. This guy, if you ignore him, he looks aggrieved and pitiful, but if you pay attention to him, he is prone to violent impulses!
Qin Nan heard the incessant chatter from the kitchen and couldn't help but chuckle. She took some time to order another dining table, which arrived that day. After all, there was one more table, and the previous ones weren't enough.
After lunch, Tao Xiaolu had no reluctance to stay. Qin Nan's cooking skills had won him over, and the desserts and snacks after the meal were so delicious that he was stuffed.
If Bai Hao hadn't been holding him back, he would have loved to devour all the food in one gulp. However, there was a downside to this: if he used divine power to devour it, he wouldn't be able to taste it.
After weighing the pros and cons, Tao Xiaolu decided to eat normally, since he wouldn't be leaving anytime soon anyway.
After finishing her meal, Qin Nan measured Tao Xiaolu's size and height. Tao Xiaolu hadn't brought any luggage here, and he didn't have enough clothes or supplies, so Qin Nan provided him with everything he needed.
I took the three kids to the supermarket, bought some clothes for Tao Xiaolu online, and also bought a smartwatch. Bai Hao also made some requests, so I bought two tablets and a laptop. I wonder what Bai Hao wants to use them for.
Around 2 p.m., Murong Xue returned with Chi Wei and Pi Yuan. As soon as they entered, Tao Xiaolu ran out after smelling the aroma. Pi Yuan, seeing Tao Xiaolu rushing towards him with eyes gleaming, threw himself into Murong Xue's arms, his eyes reddening, as if he was about to cry.
Murong Xue hugged Pi Yuan blankly, gently patting his back to comfort him, while Chi Wei, standing to the side, rubbed his hands together, ready to meet Tao Xiaolu.
"You're asking for it!" Chi Wei swung his little fist at him.
"It's you again, meddling in other people's business! Pi Xiaoyuan, don't be scared, I just wanted to hug you!" Tao Xiaolu dodged Chi Wei's punch and continued running towards Pi Yuan, only to be grabbed by the collar and thrown back by Chi Wei. "Damn it! You stinky salted fish! You dare to block my path to wealth! I'll fight you to the death!"
Before Murong Xue could react, Chi Wei and Tao Xiaolu were already locked in a fierce fight.
Pi Yuan was somewhat worried about Chi Wei, and as for Tao Xiaolu, it would be best if he were beaten to death!
Qin Nan came out with Xuan Yu and Teng Xue after hearing the noise, and saw the two of them huddled together on the ground, rolling around like mud monkeys. He really wanted to intervene and stop them, but he didn't have the strength. After all, there were several holes in the yard, and Qin Nan was sure he couldn't withstand it.
"Go Chi Xiaowei! Go Chi Xiaowei! Beat him up!" Tengxue, always eager for excitement, waved her little hand to cheer Chi Wei on.
Qin Nan was speechless. She wanted to pin her hopes on Xuan Yu, but found that he was also making small cheering gestures. Qin Nan didn't understand. Was Tao Xiaolu's luck with beasts really that bad?
In the end, Bai Hao found it too noisy. After all, Tao Xiaolu kept talking while fighting, and Chi Wei was also caught up in the argument, cursing and hitting at the same time. Then Bai Hao grabbed the two of them and threw them onto the roof to reflect on their actions. Neither of them was allowed to come down without his permission, and after they came down, they would be responsible for restoring the front yard to its original state.
