Chapter 716: Have You Been Drinking Juice Made from Moldy Rotten Fruit?!

"Why are you staring at me?"

After Qianshou Feijian and Yuzhibo Quannai left, Zhi Cun Tuan Zang's gaze remained fixed on Lian Ye.

Unable to bear his good brother's staring any longer, Lian Ye finally couldn't help asking.

He knew he was handsome, but Tuan Cang didn't have to keep staring like that.

To be honest, that look was making him uncomfortable.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang hesitated for a moment, then said with an admiring expression: "Lian Ye, the food you cook is really delicious. I truly like it!"

His good brother wasn't very smart; with just a little praise, he could be fooled into losing his bearings.

After all, the example of Yuzhibo Quannai from earlier was still fresh in his mind!

"Tuan Cang, have you been drinking juice made from moldy rotten fruit?!"

Lian Ye stared at Tuan Cang with a strange expression, not understanding why his good brother was acting crazy all of a sudden.

He wasn't like this before!

Most likely food poisoning...

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang: "..."

Looking at his good brother's gaze as if he were looking at an idiot, he suddenly couldn't say anything at all.

The script didn't seem to match what he had imagined.

Normally, shouldn't Lian Ye be embarrassed by the praise and then volunteer to go to the kitchen to prepare lunch?

What was going on now!

"You didn't actually use rotten fruit to make juice, did you!"

Seeing Tuan Cang not speaking, Lian Ye thought he had guessed correctly and suddenly felt the juice in his hand wasn't so appealing.

His good brother didn't need to be that frugal!

He had given Tuan Cang a generous sum for food expenses when he moved here...

"No."

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang sighed helplessly, having to admit that his good brother's thought process was different from ordinary people.

"You keep sunbathing. I'll go prepare lunch."

With that, he dejectedly walked toward the kitchen.

Leaving only Lian Ye lying on the chair, scratching his head in confusion. Today, both Zhi Cun Tuan Zang and Yuzhibo Quannai were acting strange.

Had they really not eaten moldy fruit?

But then what was with their bizarre behavior?!

Forget it, never mind. He'd just keep sunbathing.

Inside the kitchen.

Zhi Cun Tuan Zang listlessly tied on an apron and silently sighed.

"A thought process with only five points in Cultural Class really is different from normal people."

The same kind of praise...

Yuzhibo Quannai could make his good brother so happy his mouth nearly split to his ears.

But when he said it, his good brother thought he had drunk juice made from moldy fruit.

Comparing people only makes you angry.

It seemed the plan to get Lian Ye to cook by praising him had fallen through. He would have to find another plan to make Lian Ye cook willingly.

If that really didn't work, he could only seek Teacher Feijian's help.

With Teacher's intelligence, he was sure to have a solution...

Qianshou Feijian Residence.

"Yuzhibo Quannai, why did you say that kind of thing to Lian Ye?"

Qianshou Feijian hadn't forgotten the scene of Quan Nai's conversation with Lian Ye earlier.

That kind of doting, coaxing-a-child tone made his skin crawl.

"You wouldn't understand."

Yuzhibo Quannai said with a look of disdain, "Lian Yejun has a defect in his intelligence. You can't speak too complicatedly with him, or else he might not understand!"

The inherently wicked Qianshou Feijian understood nothing.

And he was supposed to be Lian Yejun's foster father!

If he hadn't died, Lian Yejun would never have been lured away by Qianshou Feijian!

Qianshou Feijian: "..."

For some reason, he actually felt that Quan Nai's words made sense.

No wonder when he hinted things to Lian Ye before, that kid had no reaction at all.

At first, he thought the kid was as arrogant and unruly as the other Uchiha, but now it seemed he simply hadn't understood the meaning behind his words.

It appeared he really did need to change his way of interacting with Lian Ye.

The old way of interacting was only suitable for Uchiha Lianye from other timelines.

Not for the Lian Ye in his timeline, who only scored five points in Cultural Class...

"By the way, why is Lian Yejun's intelligence different from normal people?"

Yuzhibo Quannai finally asked the question that had been puzzling him.

Lian Yejun from other timelines had no issues with intelligence; only the Lian Ye in their timeline had problems.

He couldn't help but suspect it was Qianshou Feijian's doing!

Qianshou Feijian was about to say he didn't know, but was stunned by Quan Nai's next words.

"Are you secretly using him for experiments, thereby causing his intelligence to develop problems?"

"No!"

Qianshou Feijian refused without hesitation.

His experiment has no problem; it could not affect Lian Ye's intelligence!

Originally Yuzhibo Quannai was just speaking casually, but seeing Qianshou Feijian's huge reaction, he couldn't help squinting.

"You, you actually used Lian Yejun for an experiment!"

Qianshou Feijian: "…"

If that kid had Yuzhibo Quannai's intelligence back then, he wouldn't have discovered the Laboratory matter so late.

Actually, it wasn't even his discovery.

It was the Second Personality…

Wait, Second Personality?!

Qianshou Feijian suddenly had a conjecture in his mind.

That the Second Personality took away half of Lian Ye's intelligence.

When he later eliminated the Second Personality, Lian Ye's intelligence also vanished by half.

The more he thought, the more plausible it seemed!

"I think I know the reason…"

Qianshou Feijian explained his speculation in detail.

Yuzhibo Quannai fell into contemplation after listening.

He didn't expect so many things to have happened to Lian Yejun…

Even the personality showed a split.

"It's not impossible!"

Yuzhibo Quannai thought Qianshou Feijian's explanation had no problem.

After all, he had never seen a personality‑disorder patient.

"So, is Lian Yejun completely beyond saving?"

"Probably beyond saving," Qianshou Feijian nodded, "Actually, that's not bad—being carefree all day."

That kid has spent these years either sunbathing or sunbathing; indeed, no worries were seen on him…

Yuzhibo Quannai also nodded in agreement.

He thought Qianshou Feijian's words were fine.

Although Lian Yejun's intelligence differs from ordinary people, at least he is happy every day.

The two no longer tangled over Lian Ye's intelligence issue.

"Hey, Qianshou Feijian!" Yuzhibo Quannai said, "I'm hungry, go cook!"

"Don't you have hands or feet!"

Qianshou Feijian muttered discontentedly, but did not refuse to cook.

"I'll go buy groceries; you cook, okay?"

Yuzhibo Quannai let out a cold snort and then headed to the market.

He planned to buy only the vegetables he liked.

As for Qianshou Feijian?

Who cares about him!

"Hey, I want fish."

Qianshou Feijian stood at the doorway, speaking to Yuzhibo Quannai.

This guy only knows how to buy food he likes, never caring about his feelings.

As long as he doesn't speak, the other pretends not to know!

Yuzhibo Quannai halted his steps upon hearing that, then waved his hand impatiently.

"Fine, I get it."

Qianshou Feijian, seeing that, returned with satisfaction.

Before, Lian Ye did the cooking while he bought groceries and washed dishes.

Now it's his turn with his archrival, and it feels a bit odd…

That kid really is something!

Just knew he was staying at Tuan Cang's place, and now he doesn't even go back home!

"Tch, I'll buy you a rotten fish then!"

Yuzhibo Quannai muttered softly.
