Having undergone the training of hiding under Du Meimei's blanket last time, He Yunxiao's professional skills have greatly improved.
The panic lasted only a short while before he calmed down immediately.
He then scanned his surroundings with eagle-like eyes, searching for a possible hiding place in the living room.
Unfortunately.
The protagonist's family was not wealthy, with little furniture, and not a single place where He Yunxiao could hide.
Fortunately, most ancient houses had roof beams, so He Yunxiao simply jumped onto the roof beam and squatted there without moving.
At this moment, He Yunxiao realized that his lightness skill had improved a lot. Not only was it very easy for him to leap onto the roof beams, but he could also make almost no sound when using his lightness skill. He quickly realized that this was thanks to his wife Nanzhu's "agility enhancement".
After silently thanking Nan Zhu's wife for saving his life, He Yunxiao, who was hiding on the roof beam, saw Chu Fan walk into the living room.
Chu Fan and Sister Jiang are not the same.
Sister Jiang doesn't know martial arts, and her senses are a bit dull, so even though He Yunxiao was hiding under the covers and not even controlling his breathing, Sister Jiang couldn't detect him.
But Chu Fan was different. Chu Fan's cultivation at the peak of the ninth rank made He Yunxiao dare not be careless at all.
He deliberately slowed his breathing and heartbeat while secretly using his internal energy to attach to his skin, thereby reducing the noise his body was making.
Chu Fan walked into the living room and said to his younger sister with a smile, "Xiaoxiao actually agreed to cook today?"
Chu Xiaoxiao, in a relaxed state, smiled and said, "Yes. Brother will wash the dishes today."
Chu Fan laughed heartily and said, "Great! I wish I could wash the dishes every day, just so I could eat my sister's cooking."
Xiao Xiao said, "Brother, you've had a long day. Stop talking and eat."
Chu Fan nodded in agreement and sat down where He Yunxiao was serving rice to Chu Xiaoxiao.
For Chu Fan, such actions were perfectly reasonable. After all, there was a bowl of untouched porridge on one side, which must have been served to him by his younger sister, while on the other side was a half-eaten bowl of porridge, which was obviously leftovers from his sister.
The protagonist took a bite of food and then looked at his younger sister, who was standing motionless to the side, with a puzzled expression.
"Xiaoxiao? Why aren't you eating?"
He Yunxiao was squatting on the roof beam, barely able to hold it in any longer.
It’s over, it’s over, it’s over…
Now all we can do is pray that Chu Xiaoxiao can get away with it, otherwise we're doomed.
He Yunxiao knew in his heart that Chu Xiaoxiao's two personalities, whether "Xiaoxiao" or "Chuchu," were far from being able to eat his leftovers.
Normally, only family members and wives would eat leftovers.
He Yunxiao asked himself honestly, was Chu Xiaoxiao his family? Of course not. Was she his wife? Of course not.
He could already picture his hiding place being exposed, followed by a brutal beating and relentless pursuit by Chu Fan. The only consolation was his "Agility Enhancement," meaning that even a ninth-rank Chu Fan might not be able to match his lightness skill.
"Brother, Xiaoxiao is full," Chu Xiaoxiao said.
Chu Fan said, "You only ate a little, there's still more than half a bowl left. Don't you remember how we used to live? Back then, we didn't even have enough to eat. Listen to me, come and finish your food. Don't leave any rice uneaten."
Chu Xiaoxiao moved her feet and reluctantly sat down in the seat that He Yunxiao had been sitting in.
At this moment, she was experiencing a fierce internal struggle.
Chu Chu: Xiao Xiao, come out for dinner.
Xiaoxiao: You wish! You promised He Yunxiao that you would clean up his mess yourself.
Chu Chu: Do you want to see your brother find you a sister-in-law?
Xiaoxiao: I... I don't want to. But you promised He Yunxiao you'd come over.
Chu Chu: You've always been the one in front of Chu Fan. You can't go back on your word now.
Xiao Xiao: I'm only sulking with my brother because you're being lazy!
Chu Chu: Aren't you afraid that if I show up, I'll give myself away in front of your brother?
Xiaoxiao: Can't you at least pretend to be nice to me?
Chu Fan's voice interrupted Chu Xiaoxiao's thoughts.
"Xiaoxiao, is something on your mind?"
Chu Xiaoxiao said, "No."
Upon hearing this tone, He Yunxiao, who was on the roof beam, knew that she was Chu Chu, not Xiao Xiao.
Good grief, Xiaoxiao backed out at the last minute.
However, when Chu Chu tried the antidote herself last time, she hesitated once, so the two sisters are now even.
Under the roof beam.
"You don't seem very happy," Chu Fan asked with concern.
Given Chu Chu's personality, she wasn't good at mimicking others' speech, so she could only reply perfunctorily, "No, you're overthinking it."
He Yunxiao: As expected of Chu Chu. Her aloofness is off the charts.
Chu Fan: ?
Does Xiaoxiao not even want to call him "brother" anymore?
Did I make her angry again?
Chu Fan sighed and said, "Let's eat first. I need to talk to you later."
Seeing his younger sister pick up her chopsticks, Chu Fan stopped urging her to eat. However, noticing Chu Xiaoxiao's right hand tucked into her sleeve, Chu Fan asked curiously, "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with your right hand? I've noticed you've been keeping your hand in your sleeve a lot lately."
He Yunxiao, who was watching the play from the roof beam, exclaimed that this trip was worthwhile.
Not only are there many gossips, but they've also gotten themselves into trouble.
It all depends on how Chu Xiaoxiao handles it!
Chu Fan asked with concern, "Xiaoxiao, let me see your hand."
Chu Xiaoxiao had He Yunxiao's teeth marks on her right hand, which she naturally couldn't show to Chu Fan.
To He Yunxiao's surprise, Chu Chu refused so bluntly.
She immediately put her hands behind her back and sat a little further away from Chu Fan.
"There's nothing to see."
