**Chapter 39: Chives Scrambled with Eggs**
Xia Yao showed her cute little fangs: "Eyah! I'm so mad!"
With that, she pounced on Zhong Yingxue, who was on the bed. The phone picked up Zhong Yingxue's startled cries!
And Xia Yao's sneaky, wicked laughter!
"Go ahead and scream! Scream all you want! No one's coming to save you!"
The phone screen shook wildly as the two girls started messing around.
"Xiao Yao! Stop it! Quit... quit it now!"
"Hehe! No! I won't! Gee~gee~gee~!"
Jiangnan was speechless.
For Xuexue's sake, he had no choice but to compromise.
"Fine, I'll give you candy, okay?"
Xia Yao perked right up!
"Promise?"
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow: "Are you still gonna say I used beauty filters?"
Xia Yao shook her head frantically: "No way, no way! Xiao Nan is the best-looking!"
"Sister Xia Yao likes you the most! Like, I miss you so much I'll die if I don't see you for a day!"
"And are you still gonna choke me?"
"Never! How could I? I'll knead your shoulders, tap your back, and hand you sunflower seeds!"
Xia Yao was being uncharacteristically obedient, even deliberately showing off two furry wolf ears.
Even though Jiangnan's heart was as hard as stone,
he couldn't resist the scene in front of him!
Love it, love it!
"Mm... then I'll make you another one when I get back!"
"Yay! Xiao Nan is the best!"
With that, she hung up the video call, fast as lightning!
Jiangnan's face stiffened.
Hmph!
Women!
Jiangnan, who had just pushed the door open and walked in, was wondering whether he should do a couple of ten-pulls to test his luck.
But then...
He saw a stunning blonde girl in a loose white T-shirt standing in his room.
And the T-shirt she was wearing was his! There was a Pikachu printed on it, but this one was a lot puffier because of her figure!
And the most important thing!
Right now, Katerina was holding a huge cabbage, eating it with great relish!
Both Jiangnan and Katerina froze for a moment.
Her mouth was still stuffed full of cabbage...
The air was thick with awkwardness.
Jiangnan scratched his head: "Ah... ah! Wrong room! This is really strange today!"
With that, he turned to leave.
Katerina's beautiful eyes widened. She hurled the cabbage in her hand at Jiangnan with force!
Jiangnan spun around and teleported away!
Damn it!
How did this blonde beauty show up in his house?
And the Dark Night Army!
Weren't you guys trying to catch her?
Come and get her! She's right in my house!
"If you run, or call the cops, I'll kill all your neighbors!"
Jiangnan's face stiffened.
He stopped at the door and turned around.
Katerina was leaning against the doorframe, looking at him with a smile.
Jiangnan: "Big sis, what exactly do you want? You didn't lose anything yesterday, I got stabbed by you. Why are you stuck on me?"
Katerina recalled yesterday and got angry again, but she replied, "I told you! Whether alive or dead, you're mine now!"
"You can't run!"
"Now! Come back! Right now! Immediately!"
Katerina's gaze gradually turned dangerous!
Her pupils even started to become snake-like!
Jiangnan felt a bit nervous.
This beauty must be at least Gold level, right? His little arms couldn't outmuscle her thighs.
Jiangnan had no choice but to obediently enter the room.
His eyes darted around restlessly.
Katerina was sitting on the bed in a strange posture.
Beside the bed was her combat suit, which she had just taken off.
She pointed at the clothes by the bed and said, "Wash these. I want to wear them tomorrow."
Jiangnan: ???
What the hell?
Why should I?
You eat my cabbage and I still have to wash your clothes?
Katerina lightly tapped the edge of the bed with her finger!
Purple mist spread!
The iron pipe was corroded into a small hole...
Jiangnan turned around to get a basin and laundry detergent.
"Big sis, want some fabric softener? It smells really good!"
Katerina tilted her head: "What's fabric softener?"
Jiangnan: ...
Sitting on a small stool, Jiangnan started washing the clothes with a heavy head, looking wronged.
Shanmiao!
You guys from the Dark Night Army, come quick!
I can't hold on much longer!
I'm so done!
Katerina sat on the bed, watching Jiangnan's back, also feeling conflicted.
Her organization would send someone to pick her up in two days.
Even though the Blood Incineration reagent was gone, as long as she brought Jiangnan out, it would be the same.
If it weren't for being cornered last night, she wouldn't have had to resort to this.
But under the Dark Night Army's dragnet, there was no way she could take Jiangnan away on her own.
She had to get the message out and then have the organization act to take Jiangnan.
The problem was, how could she get through two days in Jiangcheng?
With no one else to turn to, she could only come to Jiangnan. After all, he was the only person she knew.
Plus, the reagent was still in his body.
She had to keep an eye on him.
Thinking about it, her stomach started growling again.
So she picked up another cabbage she found in the kitchen and prepared to keep gnawing on it.
Jiangnan quickly finished washing the combat suit. Seeing this, he immediately said, "A girl like you can't just eat this for dinner!"
"I'll cook for you!"
Ignoring Katerina's reaction, he rushed into the kitchen and started cooking!
Katerina looked at him suspiciously. Why was this guy suddenly so diligent?
Watching Jiangnan skillfully cooking in the kitchen,
smelling the warmth of the home-cooked meal,
Katerina felt a little touched.
This annoying little brother wasn't that bad after all.
Soon, a full table of delicious food was prepared!
A plate of chives and scrambled eggs!
A plate of bean sprouts stir-fried with meat!
A pot of steamed rice!
It looked, smelled, and tasted great!
Katerina smelled the aroma and her stomach kept growling.
Jiangnan looked at her expectantly: "Try it! My cooking isn't bad!"
Katerina licked her lips and started eating.
She picked up a few pieces of egg and meat. Jiangnan watched nervously.
"Have some chives! They're really good!"
Katerina completely ignored him and only ate the eggs and meat.
"The bean sprouts are also delicious. Want to try some?"
Katerina glared at Jiangnan but still didn't say anything.
Jiangnan was getting anxious.
Why was this girl so picky?
"You can't be a picky eater! You have to think about your health!"
Katerina rolled her eyes at him: "None of your business! Why aren't you eating?"
Jiangnan scratched his head and grinned: "Me? I already ate outside!"
Duh!
He didn't dare eat it either!
The chives in the chive and egg stir-fry were spiritual chives!
The bean sprouts in the bean sprout and meat stir-fry were sprouts grown from Detoxifying Soybeans!
Big portions, very filling!
These two dishes would knock her out!
Then he'd go find the Dark Night Army and tip them off!
Heheh?
The plan was perfect!
But Jiangnan never expected this blonde beauty to be such a picky eater.
What did vegetables ever do to you?
Couldn't she just have a bite out of courtesy?
In the end, Katerina didn't eat any chives or bean sprouts. She only had three pieces of egg, two pieces of meat, and a bowl of rice before stopping.
At night, Jiangnan lay on the bed in great distress.
Katerina lay beside him.
She had not only taken all the blankets but also stolen the pillow...
This night,
was so, so cold.
