For lunch, Gu Lingling and Hao Lianlian didn’t bring any food.
This was agreed upon in advance; they were all eating at Liu Yating’s house, and of course, Gu Lingling had to do the cooking.
Firstly, because Wang Shuxia had to work, and secondly, her cooking skills were frankly not commendable.
When it comes to cooking, Gu Lingling is more than happy; there’s nothing that gives her more confidence than cooking.
Moreover, she enjoys making delicious food for the people she likes.
But wait, why did Yang Yunhai come too?
"I ran into Yunhai on the way, so I invited him over for a meal," Liu Jianping explained with a smile.
Okay, so it was a chance meeting. Gu Lingling breathed a sigh of relief, feeling she was perhaps being too sensitive.
She only found out while cooking that Liu Yating and Yang Yunhai’s families are cousins. Wang Shuxia and Yang Yunhai’s mother, Wang Shuyun, are sisters.
Having cousins over for a meal is the most normal thing in the world.
Meanwhile, Su Ziqiao, working outside in the open, had no idea just how much he was being set up by his Brother Hai.
"Hurry up, speed up," Su Ziqiao shouted loudly.
Oh, poor thing, he’s so hungry now!
While Yang Yunhai was putting a piece of braised pork into his mouth.
The family conditions of Wang Shuxia, with both parents as cadres, were naturally not bad. Knowing Gu Lingling was coming, Wang Shuxia had already bought the ingredients. Those things would have been wasted in her hands.
But in Gu Lingling’s hands, it turned into a super feast.
Just look at this table full of dishes, even better than what they had at Kyoto Restaurant.
Liu Yating was discussing something with Liu Jianping while eating. Her dad was a busy man, and it was already a surprise that he came home for lunch, so if she didn’t take advantage of mealtime to talk, she might not find him later.
"That little soldier captain called Lv Guodong doesn’t seem like a good guy," Liu Yating explained the situation today, "Dad, can I ask you for a favor?"
With how the world is, Liu Jianping couldn’t say much.
"What is it?" He looked at his daughter and her two friends, thinking his daughter had a good eye for friends.
"Do you have anyone under you who’s great at grappling and fighting?" Liu Yating asked pleadingly, "With the way the world is now, we want to learn some close-combat moves to defend ourselves against ordinary bad guys."
"You’re asking the wrong person," Wang Shuxia said with a smile, "Your Brother Yunhai is the best fighter in the whole unit."
Of course, Liu Yating knew that.
But the key was, to ask Yang Yunhai to teach them? Why did it always feel like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut?
Phooey...they aren’t that trivial!
"Brother Yunhai is so busy, how could he have time to teach us?" Liu Yating flattering smiled at Yang Yunhai.
They didn’t want the cold-faced king to frighten her two good friends.
"Not busy," Yang Yunhai continued to eat elegantly.
But his speed wasn’t slow at all.
Liu Yating was stunned.
Gu Lingling paused, also puzzled as she looked at Yang Yunhai.
Not busy, what does that mean?
Could it be that he is saying he’s not busy, so he can teach them?
Not only was Liu Yating surprised but Wang Shuxia and Liu Jianping were also taken aback.
"Yes, Yunhai recently won’t have any tasks at the unit, so he can teach you," Liu Jianping said.
Since Yang Yunhai was injured during his last mission, the doctor said that while the injury had mostly healed, he needed to rest for at least half a year.
Having Yang Yunhai teach a few little girls was the best option.
Thus, it was decided just like that.
Gu Lingling was still outside the camp zone when it hadn’t sunk in for her.
What happened to being aloof?
How is he completely different from the past life?
