Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family

"Does he have a lover?" Under the dim light, a tall and handsome orc stood quietly not far away, motionless as if blending into the surrounding environment.

Looking at the exhausted figure in front of him, he involuntarily raised his hand and gently pressed it on his chest, trying to calm the strange throbbing coming from inside. The feeling was so strong that he could hardly breathe. He couldn't help but wonder: Why do I have such strong feelings for a stranger?

"Gods... can also get sick?" the male orc murmured in a low voice.

Just like that, the male orc stood there silently until night fell. When the lights in the house came on, he slowly turned around and left with heavy steps.

After three days, the chef competition finally came to an end, and the champion was naturally Cheng Mo. At this moment, Cheng Mo stood on the podium holding the trophy, with a slightly awkward smile on his face. The trophy looked small, but when he actually held it in his hand, he could feel its heavy weight - obviously, it must have come from an iron smelter! Real iron! It's really too heavy!

Facing the excited and cheering audience, Cheng Mo tried her best to hold up the trophy in her hand and prayed silently in her heart: "Let it end soon! Let it end quickly! Let it end immediately!"

The crowd below the stage was only paying attention to what Gua Yan was saying about the dinner, and no one noticed that Cheng Mo's arm holding the trophy on the stage began to tremble slightly.

The tall orc in the corner noticed Cheng Mo's discomfort. He looked at the trophy in Cheng Mo's hand, raised his hand to summon a small ball of light and threw it over. The small ball of light instantly merged into the trophy.

At this moment, Gua Yan was still enthusiastically hosting the atmosphere on the scene. Facing the cheering crowd, Cheng Mo didn't even have the chance to put down the trophy in his hand.

However, in an instant, Cheng Mo suddenly felt that the weight in his hand had lightened a lot. He couldn't help but wonder and looked down at the trophy in his hand: "Why does it feel less heavy?"

Just as Cheng Mo was trying to further explore the reason, Gua Yan suddenly walked over and said to him enthusiastically: "Then tonight's banquet depends entirely on us contestants!"

"Ah?" Cheng Mo raised his head when he heard the voice and looked at Gua Yan with confusion on his face.

"There will be a dinner on the last day of the competition. Qiming City will provide the ingredients, and the top three contestants will be responsible for cooking. City Lord, have you forgotten?" Gua Yan leaned close to Cheng Mo and reminded him in a low voice.

"Ah...right, right! OK, I got it." Cheng Mo nodded, and then he remembered that when he was designing the process, Xiongwu had specially added a dinner party to the last process. He didn't know if he was greedy or what, but he insisted on designing a dinner party and vowed that he would be responsible for the ingredients. Cheng Mo didn't think too much at the time, and thought that multiple links were interesting, so he approved it directly. He didn't expect that he would be the winner in the end!

What a trouble! Cheng Mo was caught off guard and even forgot to study the trophy in his hand. After taking over this important task with tears in his eyes, he couldn't wait to grab the other two winners and start discussing the dinner menu. The other two looked at Cheng Mo with great admiration. No matter what Cheng Mo said, they nodded their heads in agreement, just like two little fans. Cheng Mo saw that they really couldn't come up with any good ideas, so he could only take full responsibility for the dinner menu.

With Cheng Mo's careful planning and organization, the dinner was finally held smoothly...

The next morning, an orc came to the notice board and posted a new notice. Soon, other orcs were attracted and looked at the content on the notice board with curiosity.

"Activities on the Courtship Day? Destined people will meet each other even if they are thousands of miles apart? What does this mean? Are there activities on the Courtship Day?" An orc pointed at the words above and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Wow, there are activities on Courtship Day! It looks so grand!" another orc shouted excitedly.

"But if there is no one you like, can you still participate in this event?" an orc interrupted worriedly.

"Why are you joining in the fun if you don't have anyone you like? It clearly says 'Courting Day Event' here! It must be specially prepared for those orcs who are willing to find a partner!" The orc next to him explained with a smile.

"Ah——" With this long sigh, the orc's face was full of loneliness and disappointment: "But this event looks really lively, I really want to participate..."

However, at this time, another orc's voice full of expectation came: "Who says you have to have a crush on someone to participate? Although we don't have anyone we like now, maybe we can meet the person who makes our heart beat when we participate in the event! When that time comes, I must dress up carefully and participate in this event beautifully!"

This remark was like a revelation to the former. He perked up and said, "You're right! Then I will dress up and attend this event in the most perfect manner. Maybe I can meet the person who makes my heart beat!"

"Let's go! Let's go back and get ready!" The orc next to him said and hurriedly ran back home to prepare. Seeing this, the others also left.

After the orcs surrounding the notice board dispersed, a tall orc who had been standing quietly in the corner came forward slowly. He stared at the activity information on the notice board, fell into a moment of contemplation, and then turned around and left quietly...

In order to celebrate the upcoming Courtship Day, the entire Enlightened City has begun to decorate and arrange. Every day, you can see many orcs working hard, cleaning every street and trying to keep the ground clean; or placing beautiful flowers in front of every household, making the city more beautiful and charming. Even various factories are ready to take a holiday on Courtship Day. At the same time, the shops selling all kinds of clothing in the city are also crowded with customers, and the business is extremely hot. The shop owners are even busier, smiling and collecting the vouchers that are handed over continuously.

On the busy streets, the hot topic of discussion is always about the upcoming Courtship Day. Even in the office, Cheng Mo can still hear the noise coming from the window from time to time. It seems that everyone is eager to express their love to their favorite person before the Courtship Day, fearing that their loved one will fall in love with someone else on this special day and be with someone else. If such a thing really happens, I am afraid it will be too late to cry.
