nLin Xiaozhou lightly tapped Gu Chu’s forehead. He shrugged and used an adult tone to educate a child. He started babbling,

n“You’re only five years old. You need to read and study. How can you put your mind on games? If your uncle finds out, he’ll definitely be angry and won’t make me spicy crayfish. I’ll tell you in secret that your uncle’s cooking is very good. His boiled fish, spicy crayfish, sweet and sour pork ribs are even better than top chefs.”

nGu Chu’s little face fell as she glared at Lin Xiaozhou angrily.

nShe had no idea how cute she looked when she was angry.

nLin Xiaozhou chuckled and glanced at the door from the corner of his eyes. He lowered his voice and said, “I’m just kidding. Come, let me teach you how to play games.”

nGu Chu’s hands were on the computer table, like a cute kitten, observing Lin Xiaozhou’s actions.

n“This is the attack button, this is the dodge button, this is what you do to return to the city, and the equipment…” Lin Xiaozhou explained patiently, “Glory Alliance is a mobile game that can be played on both computers and mobile phones… This is a game developed by the Cheng Group. It’s famous all over the world, and there are many players…”

nGu Chu pricked up her ears to listen and opened her eyes wide. She quickly familiarized herself with the way this game was played.

nAfter Lin Xiaozhou finished speaking, she asked, “Chuchu, do you understand?”

nGu Chu nodded. “I understand. Chuchu wants to have a try.”

nLin Xiaozhou did not believe that she understood. She was only a five-year-old child. However, Lin Xiaozhou still smiled and said, “Okay, don’t let your uncle find out about this. I’ll start a single-player round for you first. Let’s start with an easy one.”

nThe two of them sat in front of the computer, the keyboard clacking.

n“Kiddo, you’re playing pretty well. Come, there’s a treasure chest here, open it!”

n“Brother Xiaozhou, come quickly! They want to take me!”

n“Coming, coming, I’ll cut you with my eighty-meter long sword. Haha.”

n“Go go go! Beat the other side to death!”

n…

nThe two of them fought fiercely, not noticing the passage of time at all. The sun turned and the door gently opened.

nThere was a slight creaking sound –

nZhao Yan’s cold voice sounded, “What are you doing?”

nLin Xiaozhou: ! ! !

nGu Chu: ! ! !

nLin Xiaozhou turned off his computer and the two of them turned their heads at the same time, shaking their heads. “Nothing much!”

nZhao Yan raised his eyebrows slightly. He first looked at Lin Xiaozhou who was grinning foolishly, then looked at the leftover instant noodles (frowning) on the table, and finally looked at Gu Chu who had a cute expression on her face.

nGu Chu knew that her uncle did not like her playing computer games, so she immediately jumped down and raised her little head. She tugged at the corner of Zhao Yan’s shirt and put on the cutest smile. “I’m hungry. I want to eat something.”

nZhao Yan said, “You guys are playing computer games…”

n“Hey Zhao, What are we having for lunch?” Lin Xiaozhou ran over and complained while clutching his stomach. “I just came back from the popular streamers’ meeting. The food there is terrible. I came by your place today and really wanted to try your crayfish.”

nGu Chu was positive that Zhao Yan would not believe such a silly change of topic.

nIn the end, Zhao Yan turned around and went downstairs.

n“Wait for half an hour.”

nLin Xiaozhou placed his hands on the door. “Thank you, Zhao.” After saying that, he winked at Gu Chu and silently showed off.

nGu Chu was dumbfounded.

nZhao Yan was personally cooking lunch. It was the first time that her uncle cooked for her after living in the apartment for so long.

nThe table was neatly arranged. Spicy crayfish, sweet and sour pork ribs, scrambled eggs with tomato, Mapo tofu, and seaweed egg soup.
