After sending Yao Yuxi home, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening when Su Chen returned to the Gu family's residence.
What surprised him was that neither Gu Qingshi nor An Xiaoyun slept today.
"Didn't you say you want to take beauty sleep?" Seeing Lu Qingshi still sitting on the sofa reading a book, Su Chen teased and sat down.
Putting down the book in his hand, Gu Qingshi smiled helplessly: "It's not because of Xiaoyun. She is still practicing cooking in the kitchen right now. She said that she would let me help taste it when she is done, and she is not allowed to go to bed."
"Ahem, she is surprisingly persistent in this matter..." Su Chen was speechless for a moment.
He didn't expect that in the past few days, by increasing the resistance to poison for An Jingwen and others, An Xiaoyun's passion for cooking would be rekindled unexpectedly, even more seriously than before.
"Speaking of which." Gu Qingshi's beautiful eyes looked a little more serious: "Are they really okay after eating those meals?"
"Don't worry, it's okay." Su Chen smiled and shook his head: "They are all used to it. No matter how much they eat now, they will be fine!"
"That's good..." Mayor Fuqing breathed a sigh of relief, feeling much more relaxed.
"I've been worried about this for a while, just because I'm afraid they'll have problems if they eat too much."
"It'll be okay." Su Chen was much calmer about this: "If anything happens, I can handle it."
"That's right, your medical skills are so great." Gu Qingshi nodded, picked up the book and continued to read.
At this moment, An Xiaoyun walked out with the freshly prepared meal.
"Hey, Su Chen, you're back too!"
Looking at Su Chen in surprise, An Xiaoyun showed an even brighter smile: "Since you are back too, let's have a taste together!"
"No, I ate too much outside." Shaking his head with a faint smile, Su Chen stood up calmly and walked straight outside, leaving An Xiaoyun with a decisive figure behind him.
"What!" An Xiaoyun put down the cooked dishes angrily, pinched her waist and complained to Gu Qingshi: "Qingshi, do you think he just doesn't want to eat the dishes I cooked!"
Looking at the dish that reached a new level of blackness in front of him, Lu Qingshi said silently in her heart, "I don't want to eat it either."
She really didn't want to put this kind of thing in her mouth, but she didn't want to disappoint her best friend.
After struggling internally for several seconds, before An Xiaoyun could react, Gu Qingshi stood up with her book and decided to let her best friend down once again.
"Xiao...Xiaoyun, my stomach and intestines suddenly feel a little uncomfortable. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you taste the dishes tonight. I'm going back to the room to rest!"
After Lu Qingshi finished speaking, before An Xiaoyun could react, she had already walked quickly towards her room.
Bang!
Listening to the sound of the door closing, An Xiaoyun blinked blankly, and then puffed up her cheeks in annoyance.
"Qing Shi, why are you like this?"
After shouting at Lu Qingshi's closed door, she looked down at the food on the table, then picked up a chopstick and stuffed it into her mouth, frowning as she ate, "Is it really that bad to eat? I feel pretty good eating it!”
If Su Chen were here at this moment, he would definitely give An Xiaoyun a thumbs up without hesitation and sigh that it was so scary.
After all, these meals would react even to him when he ate them, and An Xiaoyun ate them without any discomfort, which was indeed a talent.
Early the next morning, Su Chen and An Jingwen left with the dishes An Xiaoyun prepared the night before.
Because her enthusiasm was dampened by Su Chen and Gu Qingshi, An Xiaoyun was too lazy to make new ones and stuffed the leftovers directly into the lunch box.
Although An Jingwen and others had no reaction after eating the dishes cooked by An Xiaoyun, Su Chen added new poison to them.
After eating, several strong people suddenly became weak and fell to the ground one after another.
But Guishou's performance was much better today.
Although he was weak, he still struggled to get the antidote from his body, drank it for himself, then got up and fed it to several teammates.
Seeing this scene, Su Chen nodded with satisfaction to Ghost Hand.
It was not in vain that he had been teaching Gui Shou so seriously these days, but it actually made the boy's reaction much faster.
After training with An Jingwen and others for two more days, the time agreed by Su Chen and An Jingwen came.
Originally, An Jingwen wanted to ask Su Chen if he could teach them for a few more days, but he received a message from above that day, saying that the target had launched an operation and asked them to go immediately.
There is no other way, An Jingwen can only give up temporarily.
After no longer needing to give guidance to An Jingwen and others, Su Chen had some time to look for Mu Yao.
After learning that Su Chen wanted to see his grandfather and told him the reason, Mu Yao frowned slightly.
"The clues found by the Yao family... are related to our Mu family?"
"Yes." Su Chen crossed his legs and nodded, then continued: "But the Yao family doesn't really believe that this matter is related to your Mu family, so they want to confirm it directly."
"I understand." Mu Yao breathed a sigh of relief and frowned: "I will contact my grandfather and ask him if he has time to meet you recently."
"good."
Su Chen nodded when he heard this. He was about to leave, but was kept by Mu Yao. He had a meal before going back.
Then early the next morning, Su Chen received a call from Mu Yao, saying that Mu Tingfeng had agreed to meet and the time would be determined by Su Chen.
In order to resolve this matter as soon as possible, Su Chen took Mu Yao up the mountain with him that day.
By night, the two of them successfully reached the top of the mountain.
It was Wei Caofeng who came to pick them up, and Wei Caofeng was still almost silent as before.
But this time when he saw Su Chen again, his eyes were no longer as alert as before.
"The master is waiting for you in the house."
After whispering to Mu Yao and Su Chen, Wei Caofeng turned and walked towards the house where Mu Tingfeng was.
Su Chen and Mu Yao followed up skillfully, and the three of them arrived at the door of the house. They smelled a faint fragrance before they entered.
"Is grandpa burning incense again?" Mu Yao asked casually.
Wei Caofeng nodded, and then made a gesture of invitation to Su Chen.
"Please come in."
"Okay, please, Mr. Wei."
Smiling politely at Wei Caofeng, Su Chen and Mu Yao walked towards the house together.
After staring at Su Chen's back for a while, Wei Caofeng strolled around and walked towards another house.
The room is filled with smoke and the fragrance is strong but not greasy.
Su Chen and Mu Yao walked all the way in, and finally noticed Mu Tingfeng sitting in front of the small coffee table, playing with the aromatherapy burner.
"coming?"
With a chuckle, Mu Tingfeng motioned for Su Chen and Mu Yao to sit down. Su Chen didn't show any politeness to him and sat cross-legged on the opposite side of the small coffee table.
