44: Chapter 44: Fit for the Kitchen, Suitable for the Hall
Seeing Tang Qianqian’s aggrieved expression, Lin Tian secretly chuckled and then asked, “Have you guys eaten yet?”
“Hmph, you’ve fed us enough with your anger!”
Xu Tangge glared coldly at Lin Tian and turned her face away.
However,
just as she finished speaking, a growling sound suddenly erged.
The sound ca directly from her own body.
It was clearly the noise of a hungry stomach rumbling.
This caused Miss Xu’s pretty face to flush red with embarrassnt as she quickly said, “We…
we just didn’t have an appetite tonight…”
Lin Tian smiled, said nothing, and turned to walk into the kitchen.
It was obvious that these two girls were starving.
In less than half an hour,
a table full of delicious food was ready.
The tempting aroma made the stomachs of the two girls in the living room growl incessantly.
Especially Tang Qianqian, who wrinkled her nose and kept sniffing the fragrance in the air, her eyes rolling around.
Xu Tangge appeared more reserved, but the movent of her throat betrayed her.
“Ladies, dinner is ready!”
Noticing their reactions, Lin Tian called out with a smile.
“Hmph, I won’t eat!
Who knows if you’ve put sothing nasty in the food, we’ll be at your rcy if we eat it tonight!”
Tang Qianqian turned her head away with an angry look.
“Dark cuisine!”
Xu Tangge also turned her head, muttering.
No matter how hungry they were, they couldn’t help but tease Lin Tian.
Seeing the two young ladies sulking, Lin Tian chuckled inwardly and said, “This is my first ti cooking, so I don’t know if it’s any good.
Could you please taste it for , so I at least know how to improve, okay?”
“Hmph, that’s more like it!
I, the young miss, shall condescend to help you this once!
Co on, Little Tangtang, let’s check out this jerk’s cooking skills and give him so feedback for improvent!”
Already starving and tortured by the enticing aroma of the food in the air, Tang Qianqian finally found an excuse to step down, wrinkled her nose, and reluctantly pulled Xu Tangge to sit down at the dining table.
Xu Tangge could clearly see how hungry Tang Qianqian was, and since her own stomach was growling vehently, with the deliciously fragrant dishes on the table, she could no longer resist and joined her, sitting down at the dinner table.
“Wow, it looks pretty good, doesn’t it!”
“Mmm, I’ll have a taste first!”
Seeing the table full of appetizing food, Tang Qianqian’s eyes brightened, she took a bite with her chopsticks, and then her eyes widened as she hurriedly gobbled up more, mumbling, “Mmm…
hmm, Little Tangtang…
it’s really good, really good, you should try it too!”
“Really?
I’ll try it too…”
Xu Tangge was famished and, ignoring Lin Tian across from her, began to eat as well.
Quickly, both girls cast aside their ladylike manners and devoured the food like a whirlwind.
The dinner that Lin Tian had made, which was already scrumptious, had completely conquered them.
Uh…
Soon enough, the table was swept clean by the two won, who finally burped in unison at the end.
The two regained their senses and couldn’t help but blush.
Across from them, Lin Tian wore a smile on his face.
“I had no idea you were such a good cook!”
Seeing the atmosphere turn awkward, Xu Tangge chuckled uncomfortably and praised him.
Beside her, Tang Qianqian also nodded in agreent.
Xu Tangge’s beautiful eyes shifted, and with a serious face, she said, “Originally, I was going to deduct half a month’s salary for your late return tonight.
However, since you perford well this evening, I’ll let it slide.
But from now on, you will take care of all the cooking, that’s settled!”
“Hmm-hmm, Little Tangtang is right, you’ll take over all the cooking from now on!
Little Tangtang is so wise!”
Tang Qianqian’s eyes lit up, and she quickly echoed in agreent.
After a mont, Tang Qianqian looked Lin Tian up and down and nodded in satisfaction, “You pervert, now that I take a good look, you’re not bad-looking, with the air of a handso young man!
So, the day after tomorrow night, my distant cousin is having a birthday.
You will accompany
and Little Tangtang!
You’d be our gallant guardian.
Many guys dream of it and can’t even ask for it!
Plus, I’m telling you, my cousin’s birthday party is held at Bin City Art College, where beauties abound.
If you manage to woo a beauty, you should thank …”
“I’m not going; just the two of you are fine.
I don’t like bustling events!”
Xu Tangge, however, shook her head.
“Ah, how can that be!
It’s very unsafe for you to be ho alone!”
Tang Qianqian shook her head like a rattle drum, expressing her concern.
“Don’t worry, the day after tomorrow night I’ll have Sister Feng over to keep
company.
Those assassins wouldn’t dare make a move under her watch!”
Xu Tangge said with a smile.
“If Sister Ruofeng is coming, then we can rest easy!
The day after tomorrow, I’ll go have fun with Big Bodyguard Lin!”
Tang Qianqian cheered.
After settling dinner, Lin Tian went to bed early.
The next day.
After preparing breakfast for the two ladies, Lin Tian left the house early for the villa on Guanlan Lake Middle Island.
He had received a call from Zhou Xiaong in the morning, saying she had collected enough herbs.
However.
When Lin Tian arrived at Guanlan Lake, it wasn’t Zhou Xiaong waiting for him but Shen Ji.
Seeing Lin Tian again, Shen Ji beca extrely respectful, his face wearing an obsequious smile.
Anyone who could acquaint themselves with a young Martial Arts Grandmaster would try their best to ingratiate themselves.
But Lin Tian didn’t have ti to care about Shen Ji’s thoughts; his attention was entirely on the large box of precious herbs by the latter’s side.
After Shen Ji left, Lin Tian sorted through the herbs and found that they were mostly centuries-old and collectively worth far more than twenty million.
Lin Tian made a ntal note and began to concoct dicine liquid for cultivation.
The dicine liquid made from a pile of herbs was imnsely rich in Spiritual Energy, but Lin Tian cultivated the Nine-Turned Three Life Technique, which also required an imnse amount of Spiritual Energy.
Even though the Central Island was rich in Spiritual Energy, after half a day of cultivation, Lin Tian had only managed to condense the third True Qi Nebula in his Dantian, stepping into the Qi Refining Third Level.
Another half-day passed, and by evening, when Lin Tian absorbed the last bit of Spiritual Energy from the dicine liquid, his cultivation steadied at the peak of the Qi Refining Third Level.
Only a sliver away from stepping into the Fourth Level of Qi Refining.
Unfortunately, the surrounding Spiritual Energy was insufficient to support another breakthrough.
“If only I could set up a Spirit Gathering Array, it would be much easier to break through.
Since I’ve stepped into the third layer of Qi Refinent, my True Yuan is sufficient to set up a small Spirit Gathering Array!
However, the materials are not easy to co by…”
Muttering to himself, Lin Tian got up and began to practice the Immortal Martial Combat Skill.
With his increased cultivation, the first two moves, Sky-reaching Fist and Sky-reaching Hamr, were executed more smoothly and their power doubled.
After an hour of practice, Lin Tian left Guanlan Lake and hurried back to Minghu Lakefront District.
The next day, while Lin Tian intended to continue cultivating at Guanlan Lake to solidify his cultivation, Tang Qianqian ended up dragging him out to shop for a birthday gift for her distant cousin.
Helplessly, Lin Tian had to agree.
Xu Tangge also agreeed to join them.
But as the three of them stepped out, a young man with slicked hair stood in front of the villa.
Behind the young man was a limited edition sports car, and a driver waited with a bouquet of flowers.
Seeing Xu Tangge erge, the young man’s face lit up with surprise as he quickly approached.
“Age, I’ve finally waited for you!”
The young man hurried over, his face adorned with a scholarly smile, affectionately saying.
