Childish

Pu Shougeng felt the sensation of his body's energy being blocked gradually subside. He pressed his palm against the floor, leaving a wet handprint, and took a few deep breaths. The surging blood and energy calmed down, and the potential-stimulating effect brought by Mrs. Karnstein's secret medicine also disappeared without a trace.

Pu Shougeng stared at his hands in disbelief. It was clearly said that the effects of this secret medicine were long-lasting, and could be activated whenever he wanted. Why had they completely disappeared? Was it the Third Sister's medicine or Liu Chang'an's doing?

"Turn off the live stream." Liu Chang'an pointed at Ma Benwei.

Ma Benwei is a little reluctant to part with it; everyone is discussing it enthusiastically right now.

So Liu Chang'an pointed to a more distant corner, and Ma Benwei was extremely grateful. He hurriedly ran far away, and could now chatter away in the live broadcast room without worry, since Liu Chang'an and the others couldn't hear his boasting anyway.

Qin Yanan walked over, her skirt swaying like a bamboo screen. She was tall and slender, carrying a bag in one hand and tidying her hair that was draped over her chest with the other. Her long hair flowed down her body, and her slender waist and legs formed a stark contrast with Pu Shougeng, who was shirtless, creating a scene of flesh and sweat versus luxury and elegance.

Some fail at the last hurdle, while others find happiness with a beautiful woman by their side.

"What did you eat?" Liu Chang'an reached out and helped Pu Shougeng up.

Pu Shougeng remained silent, only looking at Liu Chang'an with a complex expression.

"In recent decades, humanity has produced a plethora of achievements in civilization and technology. It can be said that the astonishing things we have encountered in these decades far exceed the unknowns we have faced since the dawn of humanity." Liu Chang'an sighed slightly. People don't know until they learn. The rapid advancement of modern technology has truly given rise to greater expectations for the future. He hopes that someone can break through the upper limits that he, Xu Zhancheng, Ren Changhong, and others have envisioned.

"But just as human technology, no matter how advanced, still struggles to fully understand and control the human body, natural strength remains an insurmountable and insurmountable peak. The medicine you're taking is effective, but it likely has side effects. Tell me its origin, or perhaps I can help you."

"Heh, you're overthinking it." Pu Shougeng sneered. "Don't think that just because you have a powerful bloodline, you can consider yourself naturally strong and insurmountable. There are plenty of powerful figures in this world who you can only look up to."

"Aren't you going to tell me?" Liu Chang'an didn't pay attention to what Pu Shougeng said.

"I won't tell you." Pu Shougeng knew very well that since the other party wanted to know more secrets, it meant that he needed something from him. Pu Shougeng could use this to at least make himself look better on the surface.

Liu Chang'an thought for a moment and figured Pu Shougeng probably wouldn't say anything, so he beat him up again and left.

As she pushed the door open, Qin Yanan became alert and took out her gun, but she realized it was unnecessary. When Liu Chang'an pushed the door open, he had already pushed the crowd outside into a jumbled mess, so she quickly put the gun back into her bag.

Ma Benwei followed at the back. If Liu Chang'an and Qin Yanan left first, he would be left behind, and it would probably be like broadcasting his own death live.

"Why don't you ask him more questions? He just wants to have something to hold onto, he doesn't want to lose face completely. Think of another way." Qin Yanan was also very curious about what Pu Shougeng was eating. It definitely wasn't the kind of food that all the United States swimming team members with asthma ate.

"I came here to embarrass him, why should I give him any face?" Liu Chang'an patted Qin Yanan's head. "Be smart, don't be as foolish as Zhou Dongdong."

"I'm your cousin!" Qin Yanan was furious. "Can't you even recognize that? I'm not a girl younger than you, nor am I a fairy like Zhu Juntang! Speak to me properly!"

"That's how your great-grandfather and I both talk," Liu Chang'an said, walking away on his own.

"Heh, you've never even met him? Try talking to him like that!"

Let's talk about it another day when we have time.

Qin Yanan was furious with him. How could there be such a person? If it weren't for her great-grandfather's instructions, she would have... she would have... After thinking it over, Qin Yanan decided she would have cursed him to death.

Fortunately, since coming to Junsha, I always have a feeling that I might be angered by Liu Chang'an at any time, so I also wear a larger size of bra, and it doesn't feel as suffocating as before.

Qin Yanan wondered what kind of person her great-grandfather was. She thought of the refined and gentle man in the photo, and suddenly her body swayed. She felt many fragmented images flashing through her mind, which were unclear but made her dizzy. She quickly reached out and pressed down on the car next to her.

Qin Yanan got into the driver's seat, rested for a while, and made sure she was alright. It seemed she had been dieting a bit too much lately, and her blood sugar was a little low. Only then did she drive over and catch up with Liu Chang'an.

"Get in the car, I'll take you." Qin Yanan said expressionlessly. This person walked slowly and leisurely, which was annoying to look at. It would be better to just take him home to avoid him being disliked on the road. He might even be caught up by Pu Shougeng's men and beaten up. Although that would feel good, it would be against her promise to her great-grandfather.

"Thank you." Liu Chang'an got into the car, fastened his seatbelt, glanced at Qin Yanan's seatbelt, and then stared intently ahead.

They walked in silence. Qin Yanan dropped Liu Chang'an off at his apartment complex, but didn't leave immediately. As soon as Liu Chang'an returned, he lifted Zhou Dongdong off his recliner and placed her on a small stool next to him.

"Zhou Dongdong, what are you doing?" Children are cuter, even though Zhou Dongdong had once suspected she was pregnant and told her to drink more soy milk.

"I'm eating ribs," Zhou Dongdong waved the bones in her hand, "Sister, do you want some? I'll give you some!"

Liu Chang'an looked puzzled, turned his head to glance at it, and said, "Oh."

"I'm not eating anymore... but there's no meat left on these ribs, what are you still gnawing on?" Qin Yanan thought that Zhou Dongdong probably rarely ate ribs. That was too pitiful, and she couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

"But dogs eat bones, and they also eat bones without meat. I was wondering if bones without meat are also delicious?" Zhou Dongdong is a child who is good at thinking and observing problems.

"So, do you think it's delicious?" Qin Yanan glanced at Liu Chang'an. She remembered that Liu Chang'an and this child had a good relationship. Birds of a feather flock together; they were both people with different ways of thinking.

"I'll gnaw on it some more."

Qin Yanan shook her head, looking at Liu Chang'an lying on the recliner as if he could lie there forever, and then at Zhou Dongdong next to him gnawing on a piece of pork rib that had no meat on it. The scene in front of her was leisurely and relaxed. Liu Chang'an must have grown up in such an environment since he was a child. No wonder there was always a leisurely and nonchalant air about him.

But having just dealt with Pu Shougeng today, Qin Yanan still had some things she wanted to ask him and discuss with him. However, judging from his appearance, she figured that talking to him would mostly involve listening to his rambling.

"What do you want to eat? I'll make it." The words were on the tip of her tongue, but they came out as this. Qin Yanan felt a little helpless; she was probably behaving just as her great-grandfather had hoped—truly acting as his caretaker.

At the time, he confidently stated that he understood his great-grandfather's meaning and would take care of her. Qin Yanan hadn't expected that, but this guy even said he could give her beauty treatments!

Although Qin Yanan wasn't as narcissistic as Zhu Juntang, it was clearly unrealistic to try and make her more beautiful. She was already beautiful enough, with a touch of charisma that made her even more attractive. If she were any more beautiful, she would have to be a fairy.

"There's still some pig's head meat left. You can just make a cold salad with cilantro, soy sauce, and sesame oil. The pig's ears and face haven't dried yet. Go check if there are any potatoes in the fridge. Make some steamed mashed potatoes with garlic and pork. Go to Yang the butcher's stall, fifty meters to the left after you leave the market. I still owe him ten yuan, so could you pay it back for me?"

Hearing this order given in such a domineering manner, Qin Yanan smiled slightly, "This servant understands, sir, please wait."

Liu Chang'an nodded. Why had the little girl's temper improved so much all of a sudden?

Qin Yanan swayed gracefully and left. Liu Chang'an waited until dark but Qin Yanan did not return. Even Zhou Dongdong went home to eat and then came down to play.

Only then did Liu Chang'an receive a text message from Qin Yanan: "I'll starve you to death."

Liu Chang'an couldn't help but laugh; how childish.

Various Requests, desperately begging!
