Chapter 48: How Are You Going to Thank Me?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Chen did not expect this to happen at all. Rollie had actually been brought back to the real world!
Was this the same concept as what happened to Lan Weiwei?
He rubbed his eyes and confirmed once again that this was not an illusion.
On the other hand, Lan Weiwei had no reaction at all. However, this girl had never been the brightest of the bunch. It would have been abnormal for her to have a reaction to these findings.
At this moment, in the room, Lan Weiwei was poking Rollie’s belly with her finger.
Lu Chen could feel a headache coming on.
Was he going to have to raise a panda as well?
As he pondered, he heard a knock on his door.
“Lu Chen, what are you doing? I’m really annoyed right now. Do you take me as your servant? Do I have to take care of everything?”
Yes, it was Liu Yuan’s voice.
Lu Chen opened the door and saw an infuriated beauty.
She was glaring at him with a pair of red eyes.
“What’s wrong?”
Lu Chen asked.
Liu Yuan rolled her eyes and said, “What do you think? You ordered takeout. The food in the living room has piled up like a mountain with what you ordered! I know Weiwei eats a lot, but this much?! Besides, shouldn’t you do these things yourself, it’s your food anyways.”
Lu Chen rolled his eyes at her and said, “Since you want to be my girlfriend, shouldn’t you do these things for us?”
This sentence made Liu Yuan choke on her anger. Her face immediately turned red. Right as she was about to find a way to refute Lu Chen, she saw Rollie crawling in the room.
“Lu Chen, when did you have a panda? Don’t tell me that this is a gift from Gu Yiming?”
Lu Chen scratched his head. He had not thought of an explanation.
He could only say, “I guess so. Do you by any chance know how to raise it?”
Liu Yuan widened her eyes and said, “I really don’t know what you’re trying to imply here. First you want to raise a little girl, and now you want to raise a panda. What else are you going to raise in the future?”
Lu Chen shrugged and said casually, “Maybe you?”
When he said this, Liu Yuan’s face turned red.
“You… stop being crazy!”
After saying that, he turned around and went downstairs. Lu Chen smiled. He finally knew Liu Yuan’s weakness.
He turned around and called out to Lan Weiwei, “Weiwei, let’s go. Let’s go down and eat.”
Lan Weiwei replied and quickly followed behind with Rollie in her arms.
They took the elevator from upstairs to the first floor very quickly. When they reached, the living room was already filled with all kinds of food.
Lan Weiwei was a gluttonous foodie. As soon as she saw food, she threw Rollie aside.
Her eyes lit up and she started to eat whatever was placed on the table.
Lu Chen picked Rollie up and realized that this little guy basically had no interest in food.
After coming out of Second World, this guy seemed to have no energy whatsoever for anything. He lowered his head and lay on Lu Chen’s shoulder comfortably.
Lu Chen felt that something was wrong. This guy seemed to be emitting a weak aura.
Could it be that he was not able to adapt to the environment in the real world?
After all, he looked like a panda, but he was actually a species from Second World.
With this thought, Lu Chen began to wonder about other possibilities. After a moment, he raised his head and said to Liu Yuan, “I want to plant a bamboo forest in the garden. What do you think?”
Liu Yuan widened her eyes and said, “Are you really going to keep it?”
She was a little surprised. She thought that Gu Yiming gave Lu Chen the panda just for novelty sake.
She assumed that he would send it back a few days later because she thought that he did not like pets.
She had done some research on him and could make several judgments based on his interaction with others during this period of time.
Lu Chen was the kind of person who would not do it unless there was something that could benefit him as well. Moreover, he was also the kind of person who would not give up until he saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
In this world, even if pandas were not particularly rare animals, they were still not allowed to be kept privately.
Lu Chen said, “I think that Rollie is very cute, so I’m going to keep it. What’s wrong with that?”
Liu Yuan rolled her eyes and said, “You’d rather keep a panda than give me a room here. You still treat me like a servant. Only a ghost would be willing to help you.”
Lu Chen smiled and said, “I’m not chasing you away. It’s such a big villa with so many rooms. Aren’t you free to pick any room you want?”
Liu Yuan said, “Then why aren’t you letting me stay in the room next to you?”
Lu Chen touched his nose and said, “I feel that we still lack some understanding between us. I don’t want things to develop so quickly. Don’t you think so, darling?”
Liu Yuan immediately felt ashamed and indignant.
“Lu Chen, you should stop with this nonsense!”
Lu Chen said indifferently, “Who should stop? Who was the one that said that they wanted to be close to me because they liked me? That person even stole my first kiss!”
Liu Yuan gritted her teeth and said, “Hah, you’ve never had your first kiss? Liar! How many girls have you met before me!”
Lu Chen said, “Looks like you’ve done your homework on me. Then you should know that I’m very interested in beautiful women. You’re a lone woman who lives in my place. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll make a move on you?”
Liu Yuan immediately covered her clothes and said warily, “What do you want?”
Lu Chen waved his hand and said, “Don’t be nervous. I’m only interested in beautiful women. I’m not interested in you.”
Liu Yuan said angrily, “Don’t tell me I’m not a pretty girl?”
She was very confident in her looks and figure. She had charmed countless boys.
Lu Chen waved his hand and said, “In the eyes of others, but not in my eyes. Besides, in terms of beauty…” Lu Chen gestured to Lan Weiwei, who was stuffing herself at the dining table. “You can only be second in this room.”
Liu Yuan followed his gaze and saw Lan Weiwei eating messily. She had silver-white hair, sapphire-blue eyes, and snow-white skin, just like a beautiful human elf.
Even if she did not care about her image when eating, she was still so beautiful that it was intoxicating for others were they to look.
Liu Yuan’s eyes instantly dimmed from Lu Chen’s statement.
It was true that she was not as pretty as Lan Weiwei. She covered her head and walked out dejectedly.
“I know. I’ll handle the bamboo forest.”
Lu Chen blinked.
This lady actually took it seriously?
Lu Chen could not help but laugh.
Was appearance that important to her?
He stood up and walked to the dining table.
Lan Weiwei had already eaten more than half of the mountain-like food that was set on the dining table.
Lu Chen picked up a piece of beef jerky from the side and handed it to Rollie.
The little fellow only sniffed it but still refused to eat.
Lu Chen had no choice but to put it on his lap. He rubbed its belly and began to eat.
In the evening, a few large trucks drove directly to the entrance of the villa.
A group of workers got out of the trucks with great fanfare.
The trucks were filled with bamboo.
Liu Yuan ran over and said, “I spent a lot of effort to find a bamboo forest for you. Tell me, how are you going to thank me for it?”
Lu Chen thought for a moment and handed Rollie over.
“I’ll let you play with Rollie for a while?”
Rollie, on the other hand, was confused as to why he was being handed around like a toy.
