In the air, three of them chatted about interesting things that happened during this period as they flew.
They talked about Lu Li’s and Alice’s cultivation issues and even talked about what Lu Ze’s situation at the Federal University. Very soon, the three of them had reached home.
The moment he entered the house, Lu Ze saw his mother and a beautiful black-haired lady chatting on the sofa. They seemed to be having a good time.
When Lu Ze saw this, he was slightly taken aback and before he could speak, Alice ran over and smiled. “Mother, senior Lu Ze is back.”
Lu Ze turned to look at the beautiful lady and realized that she looked quite similar to Alice.
So she’s Alice’s mom?
Fu Shuya and Alice’s mother also saw Lu Ze walking in. After Fu Shuya saw Lu Ze, she was surprised. She then smiled. “Son, when did you return? Why didn’t you tell me in advance that you’re coming back?” Lu Ze walked over and grinned. “I just arrived not long ago. I wanted to give you a surprise. How is it? Are you surprised?”
When Fu Shuya heard that, she rolled her eyes at Lu Ze. “You’re already the Monarch of the New Dawn, why are you still so playful?!” Although Fu Shuya sounded like she was scolding him, the smile on her face couldn’t be concealed. She stroked Lu Ze’s face with a complex gaze. “You’ve really grown up and become a man of indomitable spirit.”
She saw how Lu Ze fought on the battlefield and that terrifying void beast still made her heart beat quickly.
Although she didn’t really want Lu Ze to fight in the frontline, she couldn’t say it out loud.
All she could do was to pray for Lu Ze.
Lu Ze saw Fu Shuya’s complex gaze, and his eyes glistened, then he grinned. “Of course, I’m very strong now.” Now that it was the holidays, Lu Ze planned on letting his parents use the red orbs.
With uncle Merlin’s protection, he didn’t have to worry about their safety, but if their cultivation increased, their lifespan would increase too. Lu Ze obviously wanted his parents to live a long life.
At this moment, Alice’s mother, who had been looking at Lu Ze, said, “Shuya, your precious son is indeed very strong, much stronger than I was before.”
When Fu Shuya heard that, she suddenly recalled that Alice’s mother was there. She introduced her to Lu Ze. “Son, this is Alice’s mother, Zhu Hong Lian, you can call her Aunty Hong Lian.”
Lu Ze smiled at Zhu Hong Lian, “Hello, Aunty Hong Lian, congratulations on recovering.”
Zhu Hong Lian looked at Lu Ze with her beautiful eyes, then she smiled. “I have to thank you, Ze. If not for you, Alice and I would probably be dead by now.” Lu Ze scratched his head in embarrassmentthis was the truth, but he felt that Alice was a good girl and Li’s good friend, so obviously he chose to help her.
It wasn’t nice to claim credit for this, so Lu Ze didn’t really know how to respond.
At this moment, Lu Wen entered, and after he saw Lu Ze, he froze up and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Thereafter, he composed himself and nodded plainly at Lu Ze. “You’re back?”
Before Lu Ze could reply, Fu Shuya rolled her eyes at Lu Wen. “Old Lu, what kind of reaction is this? You’re still pretending when our son is already back?”
Lu Wen’s face fell. He felt wronged when he heard that.
He wasn’t pretending?
As a father, he should be calm and composed,
right??
Lu Ze looked at Fu Shuya’s and Lu Wen’s familiar interactions. He smiled immediately.
It felt great to be home. Hm… although he had to tolerate a public display of affection every day. Just then, Fu Shuya stood up and exclaimed cheerfully, “Since Ze is back, I’ll prepare dinner tonight.”
When Zhu Hong Lian heard that, she smiled and stood up. “I’ll cook with you then. Treat it as a thank you gift to Lu Ze.”
When Alice and Lu Li heard that, they froze. They wanted to prepare a good meal for Lu Ze at first and didn’t expect that they would be intercepted by two big bosses.
Obviously, both of them couldn’t really object to Fu Shuya’s and Zhu Hong Lian’s request, so they could only give up.
On the other hand, Lu Ze was quite excited. It had been so long since he ate his mother’s cooking, and he hadn’t tasted Aunty Hong Lian’s cooking before.
After all, uncle Merlin was such a good cook, so Aunty Hong Lian wouldn’t be bad, right?
Both of them went into the kitchen, and his father smiled widely at him as he placed an arm around Lu Ze’s shoulder. “Ze, I didn’t expect that you’re so amazing. You actually found three girlfriends. In principle, I don’t agree with your actions, but since you guys are already this way, then I don’t really care.” Lu Ze: “???”
Lu Ze was stunned as he looked at that wry smile across Lu Wen’s handsome face.
Since when did he have three girlfriends?!
He didn’t even know it himself?
At this moment, Lu Li smiled at Lu Wen with a gentle smile. “Dad, big brother, and teacher Nangong don’t have that sort of relationship. You’re mistaken.”
Lu Wen felt a chill down his spine. He trembled slightly, then, he looked at Lu Ze doubtfully. “I’m mistaken? Isn’t it a four-sided relationship?”
Lu Ze: “…”
So he was referring to the vixen and those two! Lu Ze’s mouth twitched, and he rolled his eyes at Lu Wen. “Dad, you’re overthinking.”
He must be joking, even if Lu Ze wanted a four-sided relationship, he would probably be killed by those three girls, right?
The moment Lu Ze thought about Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha, he couldn’t help but tremble.
He couldn’t afford to piss them off.
Furthermore, they didn’t have that sort of relationship.
Lu Li and Alice heaved a sigh of relief when they heard what Lu Ze said.
Lu Wen had a look of regret that his offspring didn’t live up to his expectations. “Ze, you must work harder…”
Before he could finish, he felt a chill around his body.
He rubbed his neck and looked around. “Why does it feel a little chilly all of a sudden?”
At this moment, Lu Li smiled and said, “Dad, go put on more clothes. Don’t fall sick.”
Lu Wen’s power was only at the refinement stage, and he wasn’t young anymore. His cultivation was basically useless, and he might really fall ill if he wasn’t careful.
When Lu Wen heard that, he nodded. He was a little moved-indeed, his daughter doted on him the most.
Lu Wen stood up and smiled. “I’ll go put on more clothes.”
After Lu Wen went upstairs, Lu Ze looked at Lu Li with a strange look.
She’s the cause of it, right?
Lu Li noticed Lu Ze’s stare and immediately looked straight at him with those black eyes of hers. “What is it, big brother?”
Lu Ze: “… nothing, nothing at all.”
Lu Ze felt that he might need to put on more clothes as well.
Just then, Merlin walked in and after he saw Lu Ze, he was stunned, and his mouth twitched. He smiled coldly at Lu Ze. “Oh, Ze is back?”
As he spoke, he looked around the living room and turned to Alice suspiciously. “Alice, where’s your mother?”
Alice smiled and pointed in the kitchen. “Mom and Aunty Shuya are preparing tonight’s dinner.”
Merlin was stunned. “Why did Hong Lian want to cook?”
Alice smiled. “Mom said that she wanted to thank senior Lu Ze, so she was going to cook personally.”
When Merlin heard that, he was silent. He then nodded. “Got it.”
Hm… although it was reasonable, he was still a little jealous!
Indeed, nothing good happens when this bastard Lu Ze is back!
But Merlin couldn’t get angry, so he forced a smile on his face.
An hour later, Fu Shuya and Zhu Hong Lian placed the dishes on the table. The enticing fragrance cause Lu Ze to keep looking over.
Fu Shuya smiled and said, “Time to eat.”
Half an hour later, Lu Ze leaned against the sofa with a face of satisfaction.
It had been a long time since he ate his mother’s cooking, and Aunty Hong Lian was great at cooking too, so he was very happy.
Lu Wen sat next to him and had a satisfied look as well. Next to Lu Wen was Merlin.
Just as Lu Ze was feeling satisfied and happy, Merlin’s voice came over. “Brat, I’ve to thank you for this time. Alice and Hong Lian are the most important people to me. Let me know if you need anything in the future. My words still have some authority in the Federation.”
Lu Ze turned to look at Merlin, and seeing that Merlin didn’t look over, Lu Ze shifted his gaze as well.
Lu Ze replied, “Uncle Merlin, you’re too kind, I just find that Alice is a nice girl and she shouldn’t die like that.”
Merlin was silent and replied defensively, “Even if you said this, don’t you dare have any thoughts about Alice. Even if you do, you must wait a thousand years later before she’s considered an adult!”
Lu Ze: “…”
Er… Uncle Merlin has a pretty skewed understanding of the definition of an adult, huhA thousand years? Isn’t that a few generations for ordinary people?
However, he didn’t dare to argue with Uncle Merlin regarding this issue; otherwise, he felt that he would get beaten up.
He wisely changed the subject and said, “Is there anyone targeting my family recently?” Merlin sneered and replied, “There are, and there was one time when a dozen people from the blade demon race that was close to the planetary state level came over. Seems like the blade demon race really hates you to the core, huh.”
“But it’s expected. They probably knew about your talent and felt threatened?” Lu Ze’s eyes glistened.
Indeed…
After all, he had such a high profile in the Federation, and the blade demon race definitely heard about him. Thankfully, Uncle Merlin was here to keep watch.
Lu Ze smiled and replied, “Thank you, Uncle Merlin.”
Merlin smiled, “This is a small thing, it’s just lifting my finger to me.”
