Chapter 392 Mingyi: Why are you all blushing?!
An Xin'er jumped out of the golden ring, her little schoolbag bouncing on her back.
She steadied herself, looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, and finally fixed her gaze on Li Luochen at the dining table. A big smile immediately bloomed on her face.
"Is this big brother's house? It's so big!"
She jogged over, the contents of her schoolbag jingling. When she reached the table, she stood on tiptoe, peered over the edge, and immediately spotted the dishes on it.
"Wow—it smells so good!" An Xin'er sniffed, her eyes sparkling. "Big brother, what are you eating?"
The people at the table looked at each other in bewilderment.
Coral's chopsticks fell onto the table with a "clatter".
With her mouth full of food, Rukia asked indistinctly, "Brother Luo Chen... who is this?"
Mingyi looked up at the little girl who had suddenly jumped out of the golden ring, and then looked at Li Luochen.
Li Luochen shouldn't be that ruthless, right?
Bilan stood to the side holding a plate, glancing at An Xin'er, then at Li Luochen, her lips twitching slightly: "Li Luochen, shouldn't you explain yourself?"
Li Luochen put down his chopsticks and took a deep breath.
"Well..." He touched his nose, looking at An Xin'er's innocent smiling face, "It's a long story."
An Xin'er didn't care about any of that. She had already moved a small stool over and sat down at the table.
The little girl put her schoolbag aside, looked up at the plate in Bilan's hand, and sweetly exclaimed, "Sister, those ribs look so delicious!"
Bilan looked down at the plate in her hand, then at An Xin'er's cute little face, and remained silent for two seconds.
Then she placed the plate in front of An Xin'er.
"Eat."
"Thank you, sister!" An Xin'er picked up her chopsticks, took the smallest piece of pork rib, and took a bite with relish, her little face full of happiness.
Bilan watched her eat and couldn't help but laugh. Then she turned to look at Li Luochen, but there was a sinister glint in her smile.
You've only been out once, how come this girl is already so familiar with you?
Li Luochen silently picked up his teacup and took a sip.
Man, what can I say?
To be honest, Li Luochen was initially confused.
But when Li Luochen saw the golden ring, he knew what was going on.
That was definitely Hoopa's terrible idea!
That wretched Hoopa, he still managed to screw himself over!
But an explanation is definitely needed right now.
"Hupa brought them over," Li Luochen said succinctly, "They don't want to take care of the children."
Azure: "...So you sent the child here?"
That's roughly the idea.
There was a moment of silence on the table.
Coral finally came to her senses, picked up the chopsticks that had fallen on the table, and looked at An Xin'er with a completely new gaze: "So she's Brother Luo Chen's sister?"
"Mmm!" An Xin'er mumbled, her mouth full of ribs, then added, "Big brother is so good to me!"
Seeing An Xin'er eating with such a happy expression, Liu Qiya hesitated for a moment, then picked up the chicken leg from her own bowl and said, "This is delicious too, you should try it."
"Thank you, sister!" An Xin'er took the chicken leg and smiled even more happily.
Mingyi sat beside her, looking at An Xin'er's innocent little face and then at Li Luochen's helpless expression, and suddenly felt... that it might not be so unacceptable.
She sighed and silently served An Xin'er a bowl of soup.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
"Thank you, sister!" An Xin'er took the soup, took a big gulp, then looked up at Mingyi, tilted her head, and said, "Sister, you look so beautiful!"
Mingyi was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red again.
".......Thanks."
As Cattleya watched this scene, holding her teacup, a slight smile curved her lips.
Katishia smiled, pursing her lips: "Your family's dining table is getting more and more lively."
Cattleya did not deny it, but simply took a small sip of tea.
Li Luochen leaned back in his chair, looking at the people at the table, and suddenly felt—it didn't seem so bad.
"Speaking of which... big brother has many older sisters!"
An Xin'er mumbled this sentence indistinctly.
She tilted her head, touched her lips with her chopsticks, and glanced at the older women at the table before innocently asking, "What's the relationship between you older sisters and older brothers?"
As soon as the words were spoken, it was as if a switch had been flipped, and several faces flushed red at the same time.
Cattleya paused slightly in her teacup, and a faint blush crept onto her ears.
Katishia sat next to her, her cheeks slightly flushed, her gaze drifting to the window, as if the scenery outside had suddenly become exceptionally beautiful.
Rukia almost dropped her chopsticks on the table. She caught them in a flurry, lowered her head, and shoveled a mouthful of rice into her mouth. Her cheeks were bulging, and a blush spread from her cheeks to the tips of her ears.
Huoyan's eyes darted around.
Shi Xintong was more composed, only turning her head slightly to the side, her long hair covering half of her face, making it impossible to see her expression.
Bilan stood by the table, her gaze fixed on a certain spot on Li Luochen's body.
Lillie lowered her head, her fingers twisting the hem of her clothes.
Coral was munching on a chicken leg when she heard An Xin'er's words and blushed.
Li Luochen is definitely trying to take advantage of me!
The table was full of rosy cheeks, except for Mingyi's.
Mingyi looked at the blushing sisters around her, and then at An Xin'er's innocent face, and suddenly felt that she was not on the same wavelength as them.
What's the relationship?
She lowered her head, ate a mouthful of rice, chewed it a couple of times, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Why is everyone blushing?
Why is she the only one without it?
Mingyi poked at the bowl with her chopsticks for a long time, then suddenly felt that the food didn't smell so good anymore.
An Xin'er waited a while, but didn't receive an answer. Tilting her head, she asked again, "So what exactly is their relationship?"
"call......"
Li Luochen put down his chopsticks and took a deep breath.
"Well..." He glanced at the blushing girls at the table, then at An Xin'er's eager, inquisitive eyes, "You'll understand when you grow up."
"Why do we have to wait until we grow up!" An Xin'er puffed out her cheeks. "Hupa said the same thing, and big brother said the same thing! You adults are all like that!"
Azure finally snapped out of her daze, coughed lightly, put the plate on the table, and said in a seemingly calm tone, "Um... I'm in charge of the money at the dojo."
"Oh~" An Xin'er nodded, then turned to look at Gadriya, "And what about this lady?"
Cattleya put down her teacup, her expression returning to its usual elegant composure: "I am Luo Chen's empress."
An Xin'er blinked, unsure what "official wife" meant, but it sounded impressive. She turned to look at the others, wanting to ask more questions.
"Eat, eat!" Bilan quickly put a piece of food into her bowl. "The food won't taste good if it gets cold!"
"Yes, yes, eat vegetables!" Ryukia also picked up some food.
In no time, An Xin'er's bowl was piled high with food.
Looking at the bowl full of food, she finally forgot about asking the question and buried herself in eating.
Everyone at the table breathed a sigh of relief.
