Godslayer: You get two at the start, Supreme Divine Ruins.
Chapter 16 Dinner
As night quietly falls, soft and warm lights gently illuminate the restaurant of Team 136, creating a cozy and comfortable atmosphere throughout the space.
Around the dining table, the team members sat together, laughing and chatting. One by one, carefully prepared and fragrant dishes were served, steaming hot and mouthwatering.
Lin Wan'er inhaled the enticing aroma in the air and unconsciously swallowed, her eyes sparkling with longing for the food.
"It smells so good, I really want to try it right now."
Si Xiaonan carefully arranged the bowls and chopsticks neatly, looking at Lin Wan'er with a smile in her eyes.
"Wan'er, if you can't resist, then eat first."
Although Lin Wan'er was starving, she still shook her head and refused.
"It's okay, let's wait for the captain to come and eat together."
Xiao had taught me the rules for eating out: you can't start eating before everyone else has arrived.
Lin Xiao affectionately pinched her cheek and smiled:
"I've never seen you wait for me at home. I'm still busy in the kitchen, and you've already started eating."
Holding Lin Xiao's hand, Lin Wan'er mumbled shyly:
"That's because it's you. I don't believe you would think I'm naughty because of that."
Lin Xiao smiled helplessly, "Yes, yes, our Wan'er is the best-behaved."
Lin Wan'er gave a haughty snort, put her hands on her hips, and deliberately avoided looking at Lin Xiao.
Zhao Kongcheng stood aside, deeply moved:
"You really are both a father and a mother, you haven't even forgotten these table manners."
Si Xiaonan also cast an envious glance and said softly:
"Yes, I always dreamed of having an older brother like that when I was a child."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan'er immediately hugged Lin Xiao's arm tightly, asserting her ownership as she said:
"Sister Xiaonan, Xiao belongs only to me."
Upon hearing this, Wen Qimo couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"Haha, Wan'er, don't worry, Xiao Nan won't try to steal Lin Xiao from you."
With Leng Xuan around, Xiao Nan is practically like having an older brother.
Lin Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief, while Si Xiaonan's cheeks flushed slightly.
Wu Xiangnan patted Wen Qimo on the shoulder, looked at him with sympathy, and whispered:
"I suggest you run away as soon as possible."
Wen Qimo looked puzzled, but before he could ask,
"Click."
The sound of a pistol being cocked rang out suddenly, followed by Leng Xuan's icy voice:
"Because if you don't run, you might end up with a few more holes in your body."
Wen Qimo's expression froze instantly. He turned around and saw Leng Xuan holding a gun, the dark muzzle pointed directly at his thigh.
He chuckled twice, trying to ease the tension:
"Hey Leng Xuan, let's put the gun down. It's too dangerous."
Leng Xuan casually placed the gun aside, pulled out a sharp dagger, and approached Wen Qimo step by step.
Wen Qimo was so frightened that he turned and ran away. Leng Xuan then curled his lips, put away the dagger, pulled out the chair next to Si Xiaonan, and naturally sat down next to her.
Everyone quickly sat down again, and Zhao Kongcheng came out of the kitchen carrying a delicious dish that looked and smelled wonderful.
Chen Muyi and Hongying entered the restaurant one after the other. After everyone was seated, Chen Muyi naturally took the head seat and announced with a smile:
"Please take your time eating. The last dish will take a while, so let's eat and wait."
Hongying's gaze swept over the empty seat next to Lin Xiao, and she noticed the slightly teasing looks from the crowd, causing her cheeks to flush slightly.
She took a deep breath, deciding to take this opportunity to express her gratitude to Lin Xiao, while also not wanting her shy appearance to be seen by them.
After adjusting her mindset, Hongying sat down next to Lin Xiao with a graceful and poised demeanor.
To thank Lin Xiao for helping her upgrade the Forbidden Ruins, she appeared exceptionally cheerful, completely unlike her previous shyness.
She picked up food from time to time and gently placed it in Lin Xiao's bowl, saying softly, "Little brother Lin Xiao, try this dish. The captain's cooking is truly superb. Thanks to you, my strength has greatly increased. You must eat more."
Lin Xiao nodded with a smile, half-jokingly saying, "Oh, Sister Hongying, you're so enthusiastic, I'm almost embarrassed. But this dish is so delicious and beautifully presented, I'll definitely eat more."
Seeing this, Zhao Kongcheng deliberately pretended to be jealous and shouted, "Hongying, you're being too biased! You only put food on Lin Xiao's plate. We teammates are all watching with envy. Give us some too!"
Hongying's cheeks flushed even redder. She glared at him and snapped, "Old Zhao, don't you have hands? All you do is yell. I'm thanking Brother Lin Xiao. If you want some, just help yourselves."
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
Sitting to the side, Lin Wan'er witnessed the intimate interaction between Hong Ying and Lin Xiao, and couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy.
But considering that this was a predestined marriage pointed out by Dao Ancestor Hongjun, she naturally did not want to ruin it. So she suppressed her emotions and smiled at Hongying, saying, "Sister Hongying, you should eat more too, otherwise all the good food will be eaten by your brother in a little while."
Chen Muyi brought out the last dish from the kitchen and laughed loudly, "Haha, don't worry, there's plenty of food. Come on, try this new dish; I put a lot of effort into it."
Wu Xiangnan couldn't wait any longer. Upon hearing this, he immediately picked up a piece to taste, his eyes lighting up instantly. He praised indistinctly, "Wow, Captain, this is so delicious! Your cooking skills are amazing! No wonder Hongying keeps putting food on Lin Xiao's plate."
Wen Qimo chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, Captain, your cooking skills are good enough to open a restaurant."
As Lin Xiao ate, he gave Chen Muyi a thumbs up and praised him highly: "Captain, your cooking skills are no joke, it tastes even better than what you get in restaurants."
"You'll have to teach me sometime; Wan'er always says my cooking is bad."
Lin Wan'er's mouth was bulging, clearly her taste buds had been captivated by the delicious food.
"I didn't say it was bad, it's just that sometimes you put too much salt in it, so it's a bit salty."
Lin Qiye silently raised his hand: "Wan'er is right, Xiao-ge's cooking is the saltiest I've ever eaten."
He and Yang Jin used to complain that his aunt put too much salt in her food, but after eating Lin Xiao's cooking, he shut up.
Chen Muye waved his hand with a smile: "Haha, sure, if you want to learn, I'll teach you when I have time."
However, cooking requires patience and attention to heat control; it's not something easily learned.
Lin Xiao glared at Lin Qiye, then handed a glass of orange juice to Lin Wan'er, who was speaking indistinctly.
"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you, don't choke."
Lin Xiao was actually quite helpless. He added a lot of salt because salt is the cheapest seasoning, while other seasonings are more expensive, so he used very little of them.
While enjoying the delicious food, everyone discussed their battle experiences during the day.
The restaurant was filled with a warm and cozy atmosphere, as if it were not just a dinner, but a heartwarming family gathering.
The dinner was exceptionally lively and warm, becoming an unforgettable and wonderful time for everyone.
