Chapter 25: The Guys Came to See You!
The capital of Nix Kingdom is located in the cold Freyldrich, where the main meat source is fish.
Of course, as queen, Cu can certainly enjoy other precious meats.
But what she longs for is never really expensive food, but a taste she misses.
Chen Yuan made her fish, specifically cod he picked up at the supermarket.
Although it doesn’t taste as good as the crab from Nix Kingdom…
But where can one find fish from her world in this world…
It’s all fish; she’ll make do with it.
As she tasted the familiar flavor again, Cu froze, and her eyes quickly turned red.
Ultimately, it’s a bit dreamlike; everything happening today… happened too fast…
It feels like she had a long, long dream, thinking about these things every day, and upon waking, realizing she would do these things every day…
Suddenly there’s a sense of disparity; will she wake up tomorrow and find that the previous dream was real, and everything happening now is just a dream…
Chen Yuan was serving her soup and putting food on her plate: beef, lamb, these are considered rare products in Nix Kingdom.
Back when they were in Nix, she could only eat marine products daily, crabs, fish, and shrimp; at first, it wasn’t bad—these are good things in her world.
But after a while, it was just like eating pork every day, making her sick…
Fortunately, he is considered half a noble, so he can change things up and occasionally have venison or rabbit with Cu.
Now it’s good; she can enjoy something decent. Chen Yuan knows she doesn’t have this type of food often, so he keeps serving her.
While serving, he said, “You can eat freely here; it won’t be too expensive. We can buy ten or eight pounds of it tomorrow!”
After saying this, he placed the bowl of served food in front of her, only to notice her struggling to swallow the cod in her bowl, tears shining in her eyes.
What?
Is it that bad?!
It shouldn’t be… although he hasn’t cooked cod much, it shouldn’t be that…
He’s had cod burgers before!
Is it really so awful it made her cry?!
Chen Yuan felt his heart twist and quickly grabbed a tissue, walking to her side and softly asking, “What’s wrong? Is it not good?
If it’s not good, don’t eat it. Let’s go eat out.”
“It’s good…”
Cu spoke with her head down, a tear dropping.
But seeing how anxious Chen Yuan was, she felt a sweetness in her heart and chuckled softly.
Chen Yuan knelt down to wipe her tears, bewildered by her tears and smiles, frowning in confusion: What’s up with this girl…
Seems like being a queen puts an immense amount of pressure; the once elegant and adorable Cu has become somewhat deranged!
“Don’t scare me…” Chen Yuan sighed and gently wiped her tears.
I just said I’d let you enjoy this world…
“Okay.” Cu obediently agreed, she just couldn’t hold back for a moment.
Allowing Chen Yuan to wipe her tears, her sparkling eyes were now filled with softness.
Ding dong—
Ding dong—
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
Chen Yuan stood up, “Who is it at this late hour…”
Could it be that idiot Yu Enqi?
“Stay here; I’ll take a look.”
“Okay.” Cu nodded.
She sat at the dining table in the living room, watching Chen Yuan walk toward the door.
Looking through the peephole, Chen Yuan peeked outside…
A big-eyed girl was right in front of the peephole!
What the hell!!
Chen Yuan almost cursed out loud.
“Step aside, don’t scare Lao Chen…” Huang Zhisheng pulled Li Hua aside.
Tan Haoxin shouted directly, “Lao Chen! Open the door!”
“We came to drink with you!” Luo Zichuan casually held two bags full of snowflake beer.
Liu Yuhang said, “Open the door quickly; we know you’re inside secretly dropping small pearls!”
“A little drink won’t hurt, just sleep it off.”
Chen Yuan’s fondness for Yu Enqi was well-known to the guys, so in front of him, they wouldn’t speak poorly of her, even if they really didn’t like her.
They also tried to persuade Chen Yuan, especially Li Hua, who dealt with girls regularly and saw Yu Enqi the clearest, holding the deepest aversion, and had even had a couple of big fights with Chen Yuan over her.
But at that time, Chen Yuan was blinded by infatuation and couldn’t recognize Li Hua’s goodwill.
Ultimately, Li Hua never matched Chen Yuan’s viewpoint.
Of course, these were all matters from their freshman year; they no longer had any barriers between them.
Chen Yuan finally realized it was the guys; it seemed the news from noon had reached their ears.
To say they weren’t raised in vain would be an understatement.
In the past life, at his funeral, these guys seemed genuinely saddened.
They even personally visited the bar to confront Yu Enqi, demanding she kneel and apologize, but by then, he had already seen through Yu Enqi and felt too disheartened to look again.
Thinking about this, he couldn’t wait to open the door to welcome these guys in.
But then, the next second.
Wait!
Cu is still here…
Turning back, he saw Cu staring blankly at him, holding the bowl and chewing on her food like a little rabbit.
At that moment, Cu had already taken a shower, wearing the slightly loose shorts Chen Yuan had bought for her; she was trying to avoid the super short ones, but they were still way too high.
Now it was late August, just starting school, and the weather was still hot; she was unaccustomed to wearing jeans after living in the cold Nix year-round.
They had originally planned to take her shopping for a dress, but due to time constraints, they only bought two pairs of appropriately loose ladies’ shorts when buying jeans.
Thus, her long legs were displayed in all their snowy whiteness…
Her legs were certainly longer than Li Hua’s entire height!
Oh no…
