Chapter 142, Little Lin Yue Has Grown Up
After repeated persuasion from Master Luwei, and more importantly, because Juanjuan seemed to really love the doghouse, Mili actually agreed to his request to leave Juanjuan behind. Moreover, the two made an agreement that Mili would come to see Juanjuan at least once every two days.
Master Lu Wei was beaming with joy at the thought of spending so much time with Mi Li in the future. He happily escorted Mi Li out the door, and judging by his attentive manner, he was probably going to see her all the way home.
Lin Yue and Liang Dong didn't follow. After saying goodbye to Mi Li at the door, they stood there quietly watching the two NPCs walk away. Only after their figures disappeared from sight did Lin Yue quickly turn back and ask, "Uncle Dong, what happened? How did you suddenly become Master Lu Wei's apprentice?"
Liang Dong finally let out a long sigh of relief, wiping the fine beads of sweat that had appeared on his forehead from nervousness, his face still showing a hint of lingering fear: "It was Xiao Weiyi's suggestion that gave me this advice, and I was just trying anything as a last resort."
Xiao Weiyi said that in the novels she'd read, the ultimate trick to dealing with a love-struck person was to get their lover to pay more attention to them. A thought suddenly struck me—not being able to move this doghouse wasn't all bad—so I tentatively brought it up with Master Lu Wei, but who knew…
After Liang Dong finished speaking, he chuckled and shrugged, clearly not expecting things to go so smoothly. He thought that Master Lu Wei had been secretly in love with Miss Mi Li for a long time, but who would have thought that he didn't even know the simplest tricks for pursuing a girl?
"And then he took you as his apprentice? Wasn't it because you did a good job with the doghouse?" Lin Yue was also surprised by this unexpected turn of events, her eyes full of curiosity, and she couldn't help but ask.
“No, not really,” Liang Dong shook his head, recalling the scene at the time, a funny expression appeared on his face, “In order to persuade him, I used all the methods I used to woo my wife back then, from creating surprises to sweet words, and some little tricks and schemes. Master Lu Wei was amazed after hearing it and insisted on taking me as his disciple.”
This master is quite genuine!
Lin Yue was speechless, but no matter what the reason, Liang Dong's successful apprenticeship was a good thing for them, at least they no longer had to worry about their lives.
Moreover, Lin Yue suddenly remembered something, her eyes lit up, and she quickly said, "The system mission says that this Lu Wei is a master architect. If he is willing to give you good stuff or teach you some skills, you shouldn't have to worry about your platform rating."
“Yes,” Liang Dong smiled and looked at Lin Yue, “It’s all thanks to you. If you hadn’t been trying to find a way to help, I wouldn’t have had this turn of events. This trip was definitely worthwhile.”
The two chatted for a while, and soon Master Lu Wei returned happily. He saw Lin Yue and Liang Dong still standing at the door from afar, and at first his face hardened, and he put on a serious expression. Then, as if he quickly remembered that the two of them were no longer enemies, he quickly softened his expression and waved for them to come inside.
The little mouse was lazily sleeping on Lin Yue's shoulder. When Lin Yue moved slightly, it slowly woke up. It looked up at the sky, seemed to realize that it was getting late, and began to squeak.
Lin Yue couldn't understand what it was saying, so she stopped and looked at Master Lu Wei with a questioning gaze.
After the little mouse finished speaking, Master Lu Wei explained to Lin Yue, "It's in a hurry to go back and wants you to hurry up and cook for Jin Xuan. Hey, cook, don't you live with Jin Xuan?"
Lin Yue's heart skipped a beat. Just as she was about to explain, she saw Master Lu Wei wave his hand dismissively and say, "Never mind, it's not important."
After saying that, he casually tossed a small bag to Lin Yue and continued, "Chef, I used a lot of your ingredients today, so here you go. Since Jin Xuan needs them, you can go back to your work now."
The moment he finished speaking, Lin Yue felt a sense of relief wash over her, as if some shackles that had been binding her had shattered. Although she hadn't felt anything before, she suddenly felt a profound sense of relief.
After saying this, Master Lu Wei hurriedly pulled Liang Dong into the house before Lin Yue could reply. Lin Yue only had time to see Liang Dong give her a reassuring look before the wooden door of the main hall creaked shut in front of her.
The last rays of the setting sun were gradually fading, and the sky was darkening at a visible speed. The surroundings were eerily quiet. Lin Yue, who was about to leave, abruptly stopped and turned back into the kitchen.
The prey brought by the little mouse was piled up like a mountain, and the species were quite diverse. Even after cooking two meals for Master Lu Wei, not much of it was used. Now, Lin Yue took out the prey that hadn't been processed yet and began to continue breaking it down and gathering it.
The little mouse squatted to one side, its bright eyes watching Lin Yue's every move, occasionally squeaking excitedly. Each time Lin Yue finished a dish, the little mouse eagerly collected it away, keeping busy for two hours.
Lin Yue was completely focused on cooking. Even with the help of the food processor, fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and strands of hair clung messily to her cheeks. Finally, after all the meat ingredients had been cooked into delicious dishes, the little mouse spun around contentedly twice, squeaked happily, flicked its tail, and vanished in an instant as a streak of light.
Lin Yue let out a long sigh and wiped the sweat from her forehead. She glanced around the slightly messy kitchen and began to clean up. After wiping the countertops spotless and disposing of all the trash, Lin Yue clapped her hands, looked around, and decided to stay at Master Lu Wei's place for the night. As for the location, she would find a spacious spot in the restaurant to pitch her tent.
She said she won the tent in a lottery. But she never had a proper chance to use it, so it remained in the Plants vs. Zombies game.
Lin Yue scanned the restaurant and found a quiet and open spot, then slowly immersed her consciousness into the Plants vs. Zombies game.
But when her consciousness entered the game scene in her mind, Lin Yue couldn't help but freeze for a moment. The little Lin Yue in this game seemed to have grown up?
