Since she was worried she might as well take a look at Chen Mi and little bun before getting started with her day. When she pushed open the door to Chen Mi’s room, her eyes soften by two degrees, she already expected it but watching Chen Mi hug little bun to sleep was a sight that warmed her heart completely, she looked at the two of them for a few minutes before she closed the door silently and then went outside while tying her hair in a bun.

Now, that she was up there was no way she would be able to sleep after all this was a habit that she learned from her annoying grandmother. Yu Dong walked inside the kitchen and then took a look at the ingredients, she has been cooking crabs for a day now and it was about time that she changed the menu.

So, she picked out a large lobster that was putting up a good fight before she took care of it. She cleaned the flesh of the lobster before she placed it inside a water-filled pot and left it to boil. On the other hand, she lit up another stove and then fished out a decent amount of rice from the container underneath the kitchen platform.

She poured it into a clean vessel and then poured some clean water into it before she started washing the rice. While her hands were busy washing the rice, Yu Dong’s mind wandered over to the last night’s incident, even though she once worked as a special officer who was in charge of taking care of the zombies and protecting people, Yu Dong has never suffered through nightmares.

For her, it was a daily occurrence and she was used to it but this time she was scared to the point where she could not sleep. If someone had told her that one day she will become this weak, she would have laughed in their face but she indeed become this weak…just the thought of little bun being hurt was enough to make her angry and upset.

She drained the rice and then placed another clean pot with water on the burning stove, she stared at the clear water in the pot and then thought about what she needed to do, she could never let go of Xiao Hua, doing something like that would be too heartless of her but at the same time, she could not let anyone harm her family either.

That was why she has to hunt the stalker down as soon as possible but until then she has to let her family know of what was going on such that they will know that they have to stay on guard.

Yu Dong poured the rice into the boiling water before she picked up the vegetables and pickled radishes as she started to chop them into thin strips, because she was going to confess her wrongs she might as well make something nice for her husbands.

When Shen Li woke up he was surprised to see Yu Dong in the kitchen she was cutting the big rolls of seaweed and rice. He slowly blinked his eyes and then turned to look at the window that was left open in the kitchen. As he expected it wasn’t even morning yet, so what was Yu Dong doing in the kitchen?

” You are up?” Yu Dong already sensed Shen Li when the latter stepped inside the hall of the tree house, she smiled at him as she placed the freshly cut lobster seaweed and rice rolls on the table and placed a bowl of soy sauce next to it. ” You should go and wash up we can start eating, the others will be waking up soon.”

Even though it was hardly morning the Yu family had the habit of waking up early well all except Yu Tong and Grandma Yu who were given special herbal tea by Shen Li. Last night both of them were too upset and could not sleep, Shen Li was worried that they will spend the entire night tossing and turning so he made the herbal tea infused with Yu Dong’s spiritual energy for them.

The herbal tea was something that Yu Dong made for herself when she couldn’t sleep but she hardly ever drank it given that it was too strong.

Shen Li gave the same tea to Yu Tong and Grandma Yu making it impossible for them to wake up so early in the morning.

” Why did you make breakfast?” Shen Li rolled his hair into a bun and then helped Yu Dong to place the rest of the plates on the table. It was already too cold and as a mer, it would not be good for him if he was to catch a cold, so Shen Li simply wiped his body in his room before coming out.

“… I just thought that I should make something good for you all,” Yu Dong wanted to tell them about the stalker and the murder that took place but it was better for her to tell everyone, that way at least Shen Li and the others will be less scared.

Shen Li stared at her, he was silent for a while before he carefully nodded. If he was being honest, he already knew that Yu Dong wanted to tell him something but since she did not want to say it at once, he will not push her either.

He went to wake the rest of the family up, even Fang Chi who was pregnant woke up given that he received such a fright last night. So, he was hardly able to catch a wink of sleep, when he heard the noises coming from the other room, he turned to his side and then pushed himself up the bed while carefully caressing his belly.

The scent of something good and delicious came wafting over from the other room and he sighed, looks like Yu Dong was going to drop a bomb on the other three.
