Chapter 404

Ruan Mei covered her mouth and smiled when she said this.

(Description of her figure)

For a moment, Lu Shu felt his vision was possessed.

"Is the place you're taking me to that shop?"

"Mmh."

What to eat was not important to Lu Shu.

What mattered was who he ate with.

Ahem ahem... I really don't want to rely on a rich woman, it's just... it's just that my wives happen to be Asta and Sister Ruan Mei.

Sister Ruan Rice really has looks, temperament, and financial resources.

……

"Ahem~"

"So, my dear Ruan Rice, the place you brought me to is your home?"

"Why, is it not allowed?"

"It's allowed, it's just, this..."

Looking at the cyberpunk-style buildings below, and then looking at Ruan Mei's two-story, detached Jiangnan water town-style villa.

It always felt out of place with the surrounding world.

Moreover, Ruan Mei also had a simple little courtyard planted with flowers and plants.

If it wasn't for the higher terrain.

Standing on a high slope, one really wouldn't notice its existence.

"Strange?"

"Isn't it strange?"

"Not strange! The richer and older people are, the more they like this style of residence."

"After all, before I first descended, they were this style."

Ruan Mei elegantly shrugged her shoulders and pushed open the door with a light gait to lead the way.

"Consider it nostalgia."

Oh.

Got it.

In 2077, it's not like there isn't this style.

It's just rare.

"No security measures at all?"

Lu Shu clicked his tongue.

"Given to me by an old friend, there's nothing inside, and I don't live here often."

"Simply put, this is probably equivalent to a 'historical relic'."

Hearing Ruan Mei say this, Lu Shu had black lines on his forehead.

Ruan Mei operated something, and soon, a cyberpunk-style transporter flew over and dropped off a bunch of ingredients.

"Finding a place of tranquility in the bustling city is not bad!"

"Are you going to cook for me?"

Lu Shu was curious.

Does this count as a date?

No, cohabitation.

"No, you still look down on my craftsmanship?"

The strong woman said so.

"Ahem, how could that be!"

"Alright, I'll let you see my cooking skills in a while, consider it a reward for your hard work these days."

At this moment, Ruan Mei shed the coat of a genius scientist and was like a virtuous wife.

Twisting her slender waist, she walked into the kitchen.

Lu Shu also hurriedly followed.

The kitchen was very simple, the kind from the last century.

Large pots, firewood stoves, and the like.

But Lu Shu liked this kind of place full of life.

It had human touch.

Unlike in the city, where you can't say a word to your neighbors in a year, and even guard against each other.

Watching Ruan Rice skillfully roll up her sleeves, put on an apron, pour water, and scrub the pot.

Lu Shu had an illusion.

The brilliance of that genius scientist was gradually fading away.

"Why, don't you recognize me?"

Seeming to notice Lu Shu's gaze, Ruan Mei smiled slightly.

"A bit unrecognizable, but this kind of Ruan Rice is more fragrant."

Lu Shu had an inexplicable urge to hug her from behind.

Just live like this for a lifetime.

"Cackle~"

"For those of us who soak in the lab every day, time is very precious."

"In terms of diet, we basically just make do."

"But for me, no matter how precious time is, food cannot be handled so carelessly."

"If you ignore the original taste of food for the sake of pursuing experiments, that is putting the cart before the horse."

Ruan Mei explained.

"So you like pastries, so the 'creations' you make are all in the shape of pastries."

Rumble.

In the dull dark clouds, deafening thunder sounded again.

The rain was getting heavier.

A rainy day with a large stove was quite complementary.

In Ruan Mei's simple, two-story villa built of pure bamboo, the stove was semi-open.

One side had the primitive and classical atmosphere of firewood.

The opposite side was super high-tech cyberpunk style.

While Lu Shu felt awkward, he also felt it was very novel.

"In this weather, if the rain is still this heavy later? I can reluctantly let you stay here for a night."

Tsk tsk.

A lone man and a lone woman.

Dry wood and raging fire.

Living in the same house.

This... Lu Shu couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.

"My dear Ruan Rice, aren't you afraid of inviting a wolf into the house? I am a big bad wolf."

Lu Shu said half-jokingly.

But he was a little excited inside.

Could it be?

Can I eat Ruan Rice today?

Ruan Rice brought him 'home' from so far away.

Although she said herself that if the pastries here weren't delicious, she wouldn't have come back, but... he didn't believe it.

If so, why bring him here?

"You are a big bad wolf, but I am not Little Red Riding Hood." ===== CHAPTER 405 =====
