Now that the weather was warm, sleeping outdoors was quite comfortable, but there were a lot of mosquitoes. Lina
quietly walked over.
This folding bed she had bought was too short, and Zuko’s long legs stuck out. The width was not enough either.
Overall, it looked like an adult sleeping in a child’s bed. Lina found it amusing and turned back.
Dave was still waiting in the living room.
“Why aren’t you going to sleep?” she asked.
Dave pointed to Zuko and whispered, “You didn’t bring him back?”
“Did he go out on his own? Or did our parents kick him out?”
“He went out on his own,” replied Dave. “Oh, by the way, are you hungry? I can get you something to eat!”
After saying that, he turned and went into the kitchen, retrieving a plate of lobster risotto.
“It’s kept warm in the pot!” he exclaimed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLina was taken aback and looked at Dave. The cooking did not seem like something her mother would do, and
lobsters were expensive. Even if her mother bought lobsters, she would cook them whole, not just pick the meat
out for fried rice.
“This…”
Dave smiled mysteriously. “This is a special treat from the door guardian for you!”
“What?”
Dave told her, “Before dinner, he went out for a while. Mom and dad didn’t know what didn’t stop him. When he
returned shortly after, he was carrying four big lobsters in his hands!”
Dave was excitedly gesturing with his hands. “Four of them, so big! Four whole lobsters!”
Although Lina was not in charge of the household, she knew that prices were skyrocketing. Forget four lobsters this
big—even buying one would require Melissa to carefully consider it.
“Hey, Lina!” Dave continued to perform for her, imitating Zuko’s unrecognizable walk. “Look, he came in like this,
and then he casually tossed the lobsters on the table with a flick of his hand!
“And he had no expression on his face. He just said, ‘One for each of you, leave the remaining one for me, don’t
touch it!'”
Lina listened, dumbfounded.
On the other hand, Dave had an engrossed look on his face, wearing a silly smile. “Wow, this door guardian is so
cool!”
Lina glanced at the porch and suddenly felt an indescribable emotion welling up in her heart.
She sat at the table and picked up a spoon. The plate of risotto was still warm. With complex feelings, she took a
bite and almost spat it out.
“Why does it taste so bad!?” Lina tried her best to control her volume.
Dave was surprised. “What? It’s not good?”
Lina’s face scrunched up, and all her features squished together.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNormally, these ingredients were considered high-class, but they had turned into a dish from hell! It must be really
hard for him.
“Have you and our parents tried it?” Lina looked at her brother. “Don’t you think the taste is strange?”
“We didn’t dare to eat it! He especially made it for you!” Dave winked. “Do you see that? The kitchen, he almost
burned it down!”
Lina’s heart suddenly clenched.
The kitchen was like a warhorse to a general to Melissa—its significance was extraordinary.
Now, someone dared to provoke her in her beloved kitchen. Would that not be…
Lina had a bad feeling, and the corners of her lips twitched a couple of times. “Is… mom angry?”
“She’s fine,” Dave answered truthfully. “Mom just used some family disciplinary measures and quietly went back to
her room.”
Lina followed Dave’s finger and looked at the trash can.
It was no wonder Melissa had “quietly” returned to her room. The feather duster had been snapped in half. How
could she not go back!?
