(..tw's good-looking novel)But for today's subscribers, hehe, it's...Yu Xu was a frequent visitor to this house, no need for greetings, he was let in. He drove himself and found his way to the doorstep. After entering, he followed the smell all the way to the kitchen.

"Mmmm..."

He sniffed excitedly, leaping over like a greedy cat. He didn't even wash his hands, reaching out to grab a piping hot dumpling filling and eating it straight away, without any sauce.

“Huff…huff…” While he was puffing out hot air, he gulped down his food, making Lin Meng laugh.

"Wash your hands, hurry up and wash them for me! Wash them thoroughly!"

Yu Xu ate a few bites, his mouth was sweet as if coated in honey, and he praised repeatedly. "Delicious, delicious, Mengmeng, your skills are still the best! Big brother is so fortunate, eating well and drinking well every day, I envy you --"

Rong Ling glanced over with cold eyes, as a warning.

His wife, don't even think about coveting her, not even your own brother!

"What are you doing here so early" he asked gruffly.

"Of course, there's big news." Yu Xu winked at Rong Ling, obediently went to wash his hands, and then quickly hurried back to Lin Meng's side.

"Today's really a good day, I'm so lucky! They'll be envious when they find out. Little sister-in-law, are you full"

Did the cold stare of Dìdào have an effect after all Although Yúxù was still leaning towards Línmèng, he quickly changed his address.

Lin Meng chuckled softly. "Don't worry, I've got you covered!"

Then she teased him, "You tell me, which time did you come that I didn't feed you until you were full!"

Yu Xu chuckled.

“Just wait there, I’ll get you a plate of condiments!”

Yu Xu hummed in agreement, picked up a pair of chopsticks and started eating. As he ate, he mumbled to himself.

"I'm starving! That old man woke me up in the middle of the night just to make me work, and then kicked me out early this morning. It's so cruel, so inhumane! It's much better here with you, brother. You gave me food right away. Brother, you're like my real brother, even closer than a real brother—"

"Stop beating around the bush!" Rong Ling smirked. "Eat yours."

Over there, Lin Meng had already skillfully prepared the condiments and placed them in front of Yu Xu. Yu Xu was delighted at once, with garlic and chili peppers, just to his liking. He picked up a dumpling with his chopsticks, dipped it in the sauce, and took a bite. The spicy, sour, numbing, and fragrant sensation immediately flowed from his mouth into his stomach. He felt that the fatigue of the whole afternoon was diluted by this flavor, and then a warm feeling spread throughout his body.

Yu Xu swallowed a few mouthfuls and looked at Lin Meng, his eyes twinkling with tears.

"Little sister-in-law, do you have me in your heart!"

He was about to reach out and shake Lin Meng's hand when Rong Ling slapped him hard on the back of his head.

"I see right through your act. Don't fool Mengmeng!"

Yu Xu immediately wiped away her tears, looking at Rong Ling with a hint of grievance.

"Big brother, everything I'm saying is the truth. You don't even allow me to tell my sister-in-law the truth This is my sister-in-law, my own blood relative! Even closer than my blood relative!"

My own sister-in-law wouldn't specifically cook dumplings just for him, and she could even smile and tell him "just fill your belly," and remember his favorite seasoning so clearly.

Yu Xu's heart was moved. It felt warm and comforting.

Lin Meng burst into laughter, glanced at Rong Ling, and took a step forward.

"I promise, I promise, Ah Xu, I love hearing this!"

Saying that, she turned and went to pour water.

Rong Ling stopped talking and instead pointed to the various types of steamed dumplings that were ready. Yu Xu picked a few and put them on a plate.

“Let me have a little something to tide me over. As for the rest, I'll wait until Youyou and Haohuo wake up and eat with them.”

This Uncle Si is definitely qualified, eating good food and not forgetting his two nephews!

Rong Ling just sat beside Yu Xu, Lin Meng put down two cups of water after that, then went to help Yu Ma wrap the remaining filling.

Yu Xu ate quickly, in a few bites, wolfing down the entire plate of dumplings. After gulping down a large glass of warm water, he finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"Comfortable!"

Lin Meng shook her head, "This Yu Xu, he just loves to play pranks. But it seems like he's really tired, and he looks busy."

"What did your grandfather tell you to do" Rong Ling asked.

Yu Xu immediately perked up, his eyes sparkling.

"Did you hear about what happened at the Jiang family last night, big brother"

Lin Meng's hand holding the dumpling paused immediately, while Rong Ling remained calm. "I've heard some things, but not all of them. Tell me first what you've heard."

Yu Xu was really getting into it, acting as if he were right there experiencing it himself. He excitedly gestured wildly.

“You wouldn't believe what happened last night. It was incredible! The police and the military are all in an uproar now, and lots of people are searching for that mysterious figure. You have no idea how skilled that person is, they're practically a god! I even want to find them and have a meal with them. That guy's marksmanship is unbelievable, *biu—biu—biu*, one shot and three down. And these three weren't standing together, you see—”

Yu Xu, with the empty plate in hand, turned it into a sandbox and began to demonstrate. He picked up some garlic cloves from the dish, acting as the three people, then picked up some chili flakes, representing the person hiding behind the pile of bricks. Finally, he used the dipping sauce to outline the approximate terrain at that time. You have to say, Yu Xu really had the talent of a storyteller. With his eloquent speech and vivid tone, it seemed as if he was experiencing it firsthand. Even though Lin Meng had already heard Rong Ling recount it once, hearing Yu Xu's version again still deeply captivated her. Moreover, the scene in her mind became even more three-dimensional.

Yu Xu finished speaking, excitedly looking at Rong Ling and asking, "Big brother, what do you think Is this person impressive"

Rong Ling remained unmoved, only giving a soft "hmm" in response. Lin Meng's heart skipped a beat upon hearing it, an urge to laugh uncontrollably surging within him. If Yu Xu knew that he was showering such compliments on someone sitting right in front of him, his face would undoubtedly be priceless. Yet, his own man acted as if nothing had happened, completely serious and behaving like an outsider.

How could she find this scene so amusing, no matter how she looked at it

She almost laughed out loud, and quickly pretended to look at the pot as an excuse to hide her smile. But the moment she turned around, she couldn't help but grin. Holding back a laugh was truly hard work.

Rong Ling was truly capable, asking with an unusual calmness and composure.

How do you know this so well, isn't it something that's not supposed to be spoken of

"Oh, such a big thing, could it be that the Jiang family wouldn't say anything and keep it under wraps! The three members of the Jiang family are all heavyweights, plus with so many people dead, this matter definitely can't be kept secret, it has to be reported. With just a few more people handling it, it naturally spreads. And there are so many experts in this line, go to the scene and detect it, you can see the way things are, come back and tell others, that's like a pot exploding, boiling all over! The old veterans in the military department were all alarmed, my grandfather also received the news first, then he dug me out of bed and urged me to go and find out. You wouldn't believe it, when I went to the scene, although the dead bodies had been moved away, the traces remained. I tell you, just thinking about that scene makes me excited all over, this is really beyond human comprehension, there are people outside of people, and heaven outside of heaven. Big brother, you should also go and see, if you don't go, it will be your lifelong regret!"

"Poof—"

Lin Meng couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Yu Xu's bright tiger eyes immediately darted over. "Mengmeng, don't laugh, I'm serious!"

She suspected he was about to argue his point relentlessly until she conceded.

Lin Meng immediately stopped laughing and stated her position. "I believe you, I believe everything you say is true. Honestly, I really want to meet that person!"

Although Rong Ling was still as steady and unmoving as a mountain, he also seemed like an old monk in meditation.

Yu Xu took over Lin Meng's words and said with distress.

"I want to find him too, but he's really hard to find. I've been busy all day looking for him, but I haven't gotten any news!"

Rong Ling raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are there a lot of people looking for you outside"

"Yes," Yu Xu replied affirmatively. "The police and military weren't alarmed, so all the bigwigs sent their men to look for him. It's like a competition, whoever finds him first gets to claim him. The old man kicked me out just because he knows I'm quick-witted and can help him get this person. He's showing his appreciation for talent! The rest of them are basically thinking the same thing. Even the Liu family is looking. Hmph, even with all my skills, I might not be able to stop them from taking this person!"

Rong Ling also snorted, sounding a bit disgusted. "He thinks he's so clever!"

"Yeah, right! As if!"

"Tsk, Yu Xu frowned. 'Those old and young of the Jiang family have their mouths as tightly sealed as clamshells. They're incredibly secretive and won't budge an inch to anyone. They even said they didn't know who the other party was, only that Wang Lei introduced them, so they took a gamble and believed him. Humph, those two foxes from the Jiang family could never do something with such little certainty. They must have known who the other party was to entrust their lives and fortunes. And what about that Wang Lei Despite our good friendship, he's despicable! I called him, showered him with compliments, practically begged him, but that kid wouldn't reveal a thing. It's too much! For all those times I treated him to drinks before, he's such a white-eyed wolf, ungrateful and unloyal!'

"It's just a matter of loyalty, isn't it" Rong Ling said.

Yu Xu's face was no longer so angry. "That kid is fair to everyone, whoever comes is met with the same eight words -- loyal friend's affairs, cannot be disclosed. Hmph, if he weren't like this, when he returns I wouldn't hesitate to beat him up. But, hehe--"

Yu Xu was delighted, a gleeful smirk spreading across his face.

"That boy is on a business trip, isn't he With this happening, the higher-ups sent him back. He stuck his neck out and said that his work wasn't finished yet, so he wouldn't be coming back. Haha, there's no way he'll come back. Those bigwigs aren't easy to deal with, he better stay away for a while and let this fire die down first! If he comes back, he'll be interrogated until his skin is peeled off!"

Rong Ling's eyes flashed, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, echoing. "That kid is lucky!"

"That's not bad!" Yu Xu nodded, but soon, his eyes gleamed unusually brightly as he looked at Rong Ling.

"Big brother—" he chuckled, a strange laugh escaping his lips.

How cunning, how wicked!

It's as if he discovered something!

This caused Lin Meng's heart to skip a beat, and she hastily raised her eyes to look at the two people. Seeing Rong Ling was still as motionless as a mountain, she pressed down on her somewhat disordered heartbeat.

When Yu Xu spoke, she could only laugh at her own oversensitivity. Truly, it was Rong Ling, this emperor, who wasn't in a hurry, while she, this bystander eunuch, was driven to the brink of despair.

"Big brother, you and Wang Lei are close friends, hey hey, if you step in, I guarantee Wang Lei will definitely give you face! Big brother, help me out, help my grandpa get this person, what do you say"

Rong Ling had taken some time to consider Yu Xu's suggestion, and after a while, she spoke.

"Oh no!"

Yu Xu immediately put on a mournful face. "How could it be so bad"

"If I were to run for office, Wang Lei should give me some favor. But, my brother, I'm afraid we can't be brothers anymore!"

Yu Xu was stunned.

Rong Ling continued, "Furthermore, as brothers, we shouldn't make it too difficult for our own siblings, forcing them to do things that go against what is considered 'loyal.' That's not something a brother should ever do."

Yu Xu immediately blushed. He was a smart person, so he quickly understood what Rong Ling meant.

"Big brother, I'm sorry, you're right, I misunderstood."

Rong Ling smiled faintly and patted Yu Xu's shoulder.

Yu Xu didn't mention it anymore. He sulked for a while, then excitedly told Rong Ling about the mysterious person and his own speculations. As for Wu Shengnan, compared to that mysterious person, she was hardly worth mentioning. Moreover, Yu Xu believed that his older brother could handle just one woman. Therefore, after casually mentioning Wu Shengnan's death to Rong Ling, Yu Xu steered the conversation back to the mysterious person. It was clear that he truly admired that person and yearned to befriend him. Of course, with Aunt Yu present, Yu Xu wasn't oblivious. Although Li Lanqiu impersonating Wu Shengnan was his responsibility to investigate, he refused to utter Wu Shengnan's name, only using "Li Lanqiu" or "fake Li Lanqiu" as a substitute.

By the time the two little ones had settled into a routine of waking up, washing their faces, getting dressed, and going downstairs, Yu Xu was still buzzing with excitement. He told the two children about the mysterious person again, and they were just as excited as he was. Their eyes, just like Yu Xu's, sparkled with anticipation. They begged him to introduce them to the mysterious person if he ever found him.

Lin Meng felt like she couldn't hold it in anymore. Looking at the two pale, tender faces that were flushed red as if they had been injected with chicken blood, she was really struggling to keep a straight face. So, she secretly made a gesture to Rong Ling and ran upstairs first. Hiding in her room, she laughed heartily for a while before calmly going back downstairs. are breathtakingly beautiful. If someone told me she was a fairy, I would believe them!He smiled and extended his hand."I'm really afraid you'll forget me!"She politely extended her hand, shook Feng'...
