Stepping on the demon door, the witch becomes the strongest.

Chapter 401 New Year's Itinerary

New Year’s Eve dinner usually refers to the dinner on New Year’s Eve.

But if the couple's families are not together, then if the distance and time permit, they usually eat lunch at the wife's home and dinner at the husband's home, and both meals are considered New Year's Eve dinner - if the man marries into the wife's family, then it is the other way around.

Therefore, when Yan Yu heard that it was "noon on New Year's Eve", he immediately widened his eyes in surprise:
Hey! What's your relationship with me? Why should I go to your house for New Year's Eve dinner?
Being stared at like this by Yan Yu, Lin Ning immediately turned her head away guiltily and grumbled:

"I didn't force you. It was my dad who wanted to invite you over for dinner. I didn't initiate it. Of course, it's not that I don't want the captain to come, but I don't really want him to come either. I can only say that it would be better if the captain came, but it doesn't matter if he doesn't come."

Yan Yu:………………

It’s really troublesome. Wouldn’t it be better if you just said, “Captain, please come to my house for dinner”?
No, no, no, this can't be agreed to lightly. It's New Year's Eve! What kind of identity should I go with? And what if all her relatives show up? Wow, then your dad will just say, "My dear son-in-law, let me toast you a drink," and directly blame me, right?
Seeing Yan Yu remained silent for a long time, Lin Ning seemed a little frustrated and quickly said:

"Forget it, forget it. You don't have to come. I know this is inappropriate and it puts the captain in a difficult position. Just pretend I never said anything."

That's right! Yan Yu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Don't force me to say "you are worthy".

Lin Ning went to the kitchen to cook, and Yan Yu continued to watch TV to pass the time, and took out his mobile phone to check the new messages.

Public opinion was now focused on the Li Palace Secret Realm. Even those who knew nothing about the cultivator system could understand, by listening to the commentators' analysis and boasting, how impressive the Zhenhai and Longxiong teams' performance at the Li Palace was, and how... exaggerated Yan Yu's record was.

One person can withstand an entire attack!

The news even spread abroad, so much so that Anna sent a message to express her condolences and congratulate him on "showing off his power in front of people all over the world again."

Li Minghu also sent a congratulatory message, and asked by the way "Can the two-handed sword-wielding technique be exchanged?"

Of course, if the Valkyrie could learn to wield a sword with both hands, she would be more confident in dealing with the monkeys in the southern border.

After replying to Li Minghu, Yan Yu continued to scroll down the messages and saw that Zhang Huaide had also sent a message, asking about the two-handed sword-controlling technique - after all, the sword immortals who belonged to the top teams could see the value of this two-handed sword-controlling technique at a glance.

So, in addition to teaching Ningning the sword-wielding skills, I also have to get her and myself another flying sword.

After writing the things down on the to-do list, Yan Yu heard Su Yunjin calling everyone to the restaurant:

"Eat cheerleader, and everyone, come here quickly!"

Yan Yu came to the dining table and just as he sat down, he heard the sound of porcelain breaking from the kitchen.

"What's wrong?" Su Yunjin went over and asked.

"It's okay." Lin Ning shook her head. "I didn't hold it firmly and broke a plate."

"Let me help you clean up." Su Yunjin took the broom.

The two of them were cleaning up the broken pieces of dishes in the kitchen. Chen Lingyun also came down from the second floor. She looked at the dishes on the table and suddenly raised her eyebrows and asked Yan Yu:
"Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet, what's wrong?" Yan Yu asked back.

Before Chen Lingyun could answer, Zhao Yuanzhen rushed out of the toilet, saying something like "Everyone, please sit down quickly and let me eat first as a sign of respect." He hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and put the food into his mouth.

The next second, she turned around and vomited out, shouting anxiously:
"Water! Water! Water!"

Yan Yu handed her the teacup without changing his expression. Zhao Yuanzhen took a big sip of tea and finally showed an expression of "coming back to life". He said with a bitter face and sticking out his tongue:
"So salty! How much salt is put in this!"

"Is it very salty?" Lin Ning came out of the kitchen, took a bite, and spit out the food without changing her expression. She picked up the plate and said, "Maybe there's too much salt. I'll go add some water and wash it."

She went to the kitchen with a tired look on her face. Yan Yu and Chen Lingyun looked at each other in bewilderment. Zhao Yuanzhen didn't believe it, so he picked up another dish with his chopsticks and tentatively put it into his mouth.

"This dish is too bland. I can't taste it." The demon sect witch sighed and put her chopsticks on the table. "I really don't have an appetite."

Yan Yu was immediately horrified: What happened? Even Zhao Yuanzhen had lost his appetite. How terrible could these dishes be?

"Ningning seems a little distracted," Chen Lingyun asked quietly, "Do you have any clues?"

"I don't have any idea at all..." Yan Yu turned around and saw Lin Ning absentmindedly pouring the vegetables back into the soup pot, adding half a bowl of boiling water, and then stirring it non-stop with a spoon.

Like a mechanically numb cement mixer. Hey, you didn't even turn on the gas stove downstairs!
"What's wrong with Ningning?" Su Yunjin also returned to the table and asked worriedly, "She seems a little off."

Although it seemed like he was asking everyone, he was actually staring at Yan Yu, and his meaning was clearly "Captain, what did you do to her again?"

Xie Ruoxi also came down from the second floor and saw Lin Ning busy in the kitchen. A group of people gathered around the dining table, but no one was eating. Not even Sister Zhao!
She slowly came to the dining table, looked at it for a long time, and asked hesitantly:
"These vegetables...are they poisonous?"

"Forget it." Yan Yu stood up, "I'll go ask."

He walked into the kitchen and slowly came to Lin Ning's side. He glanced at the girls behind him who were listening attentively, and whispered to Lin Ning:
"what happened?"

"Sorry, I've been a little tired lately." Lin Ning replied softly, "This dish may not be salvageable, why don't we go out for dinner tonight."

Yan Yu:………………

If it were anyone else, he'd have thought she was deliberately seeking revenge. But Tsundere Ningning's worries were written all over her face. The caption read, "I'm unhappy," and the content read, "Because the captain refused to come to my house for dinner, I'm feeling a bit down and can't muster the energy to cook properly."

Cooking is fine, but what about training? Will he fail again? Will he be in poor form and underperform?

Yan Yu was silent for a while and said:
"I have something to do on New Year's Eve. How about moving it up a few days? The 29th or the 28th?"

Lin Ning frowned upon hearing this, the melancholy on her face quickly turning into irritation, and she frowned and asked:

"Captain, are you feeling sorry for me? I don't want your pity. I will explain this to my dad."

You are really difficult to deal with... Yan Yu complained in his heart, but smiled:

"No. It's just a normal visit, just like leaders from other companies visit the families of outstanding employees during the Spring Festival. But if you don't want to, then forget it."

Perhaps the word "excellent employee" touched her heart, Lin Ning did not continue to resist, but just stared at the soup pot for a moment, and finally pouted and said:
"Hmph, if the captain insists on coming to my house to offer condolences, there's nothing I can do."

She seemed to want to maintain her original depressed state, but her brows soon couldn't help but relax.

Yan Yu finally got it done, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He returned to the dining table and announced:
"Let's eat out tonight."

The girls got up and prepared to go out.

Yan Yu was about to go back to his room to change clothes when he heard Su Yunjin suddenly ask:
"What date next month does the captain plan to visit Ningning's house?"

"Ah, this..." Yan Yu was also stunned. After a while, he asked, "How did you know?"

"I saw Ningning talking to you just now, and she seemed to be mouthing the words 'come to my house.'" Su Yunjin smiled faintly, "So, you want to pretend to be her boyfriend and go home for the New Year?"

Although there was a smile in her tone, a heaviness like a black hole had spread through the voice transmission, as if it could crush all the air around them.

"No, no." Yan Yu immediately denied, "It's just that her father wanted to thank me for taking care of his daughter this year, so he invited me to dinner. I went there as the captain of the team, not as a fake boyfriend."

"I see." Su Yunjin pondered and said, "It just so happens that my parents also want to thank the captain for training me. You should be able to spare a day next month to visit my house, right?"

"Ah?" Yan Yu was stunned for a moment, "Really?"

"of course it's true."

"But why do I feel like you did this on the spur of the moment? You haven't even called your parents."

"My parents mentioned this a long time ago," Su Yunjin lied seriously. "I originally felt that it would disturb the captain too much, so I was embarrassed to say it. But since the captain has already accepted Ningning's invitation, I want the same treatment."

No, no, no, actually, your parents have nothing to do with it. You just want the same treatment, right? As you were talking, you blurted out what was really in your heart, right?
Yan Yu was also feeling overwhelmed. Considering that the strongest person in the world wouldn't be afraid of any challenge, he could only agree to it for now and wait until the New Year to make a decision.

"Yan Yu." Chen Lingyun suddenly sent a voice message, "Are you free recently..."

"No, I won't go to your house!" Yan Yu immediately refused firmly.

"...Help me study my Prison Banner." Chen Lingyun smiled sweetly. "By the way, was it Ningning who invited you to her house? Oh, it's New Year's, and you're going to meet relatives, right? She was upset because you refused to agree, and now she's in a better mood... because you softened your heart and changed your mind, right?"

"It's useless even if you guessed it." Yan Yu's heart was as hard as steel, his voice was cold, and he emphasized firmly, "I'll say it again, I won't go to your house during the New Year."

"It's okay." Chen Lingyun said with a smile, "I can come to your house."

Yan Yu was stunned when he heard this. The scene of the New Year's Eve night when this scumbag princess had her parents and sister under her control appeared in his mind. He couldn't help but feel his hair stand on end.
