Futuristic Gourmet’s Spoiled Marriage Chapter 29: Euphemistic Confession
Translated by Serena Love
What will Ling Xuan give her as the second gift?
Ling Yaoyao opened the beautifully packed white box expectantly.
Then she found out that there was a smaller black box inside!
Ling Yaoyao remembered the prank he had seen on the Internet before, wrapping a gift with endless boxes, but in the end, there was only a note "teasing you."
She couldn't help but laugh. Ling Xuan would not be so bored, right?
Fortunately, when she opened the small black box, and the real gift inside was revealed.
It was a dream star stud earrings carved into the shape of a moonflower. The gorgeous red color is very pure, and the shape is round, small, and cute.
Dream star stones are the only energy stones that can store mental energy. It is dreamy and beautiful. It only exists in the meteorite remnant after an explosion of a planet. The process of mining this stone in those meteorite zones is very boring and accompanied by danger. So the stone is very rare.
Dream star stone can absorb and store the mental energy that the wearer dissipates subconsciously. When the wearer encounters a situation where their mental power is exhausted, they can draw the mental power stored in the dream star stone. Although the amount that can be stored is not much, it can at least be used in an emergency.
Jewelry made of dream star stone is very popular among assistant therapists. The specific mental energy that can be stored depends on the purity of the stone. The one selected by Ling Xuan is undoubtedly very pure. Dream star stones have many colors, among which red is very rare, beautiful, and eye-catching, and is most liked by girls.
Moonflower is a dark flower that only blooms on moonless nights. Most of them are pure white. The flower language is "Guardian." Red Moonflower is rarely seen. If there is, there will be only one in a thousand moonflowers. The flower language of the red moonflower is "Only guarding you in this life."
It is also the most euphemistic confession to a crush... representing unspeakable love. Of course, it was impossible for Ling Yaoyao, a country bumpkin who came from outside this world, to know so much. She only barely recognized that it was a dream star stone because Shen Yunjin had been wearing a pink dream star stone ring for a long time.
Ling Yaoyao can't recognize the shape or the name of the flower at all. She just knows that the earrings look very nice!
With a little infusion of mental power, the red dream star stone will also emit a faint red fluorescence, which is extremely beautiful!
It's no wonder that Ling Xuan refused to give this to her before. She was not allowed to wear any accessories during military training.
In fact, when Ling Xuan first returned to the Imperial City, he only got the rough dream star stone. His adjutant, Cheng Bin, was responsible for finding someone to carve it. It was not in his hands, so of course, he could not show it to Ling Yaoyao.
In the beginning, his request was only to smooth the edges and corners of the dream star stone to be inlaid in the earrings.
But after being stimulated day by day by Ling Yaoyao, he started to think tactfully...
When he told Cheng Bin to carve the dream star stone into a moonflower, Cheng Bin's first reaction was, "Fuck, boss, isn't this a gift to your sister? Why suddenly you decided to change it to a gift for your love sister? Which girl is it who can melt your ten thousand years of profound ice?? Tell me!"
Ling Xuan did not admit or deny it at the time. "Just do it."
But when he really got the moonflower dream star stud earrings, Ling Xuan worried that he was too obvious...
He even thought out the excuses. If Ling Yaoyao confronts him with this, he would say that it was a shape chosen by Cheng Bin on his own initiative.
But then, after he half-angry and half-seriously said, "then you should not call me brother again," he took out this gift...
In fact, he was expressing his heart tactfully...
Ling Xuan thought if Ling Yaoyao took the moonflower earrings and asked him, he would simply take the opportunity to say what was in his heart.
"I don't want to be your brother. I want to be your man."
And he will wait for her sentence.
Whether his love is dead or alive, he will recognize it.
If she was disgusted, then he will apply for a transfer away from the Imperial Capital again. It will give the two a chance to return to the very cold "sibling relationship" in the very beginning.
However, after seeing Xiao Zhen outside the door, Ling Xuan didn't think so.
Ling Yaoyao could like Xiao Ming two months ago, but now she likes Wei Yuan. Maybe she will like Xiao Zhen in two months, or someone else...
Why can these people get her, but he can't?
Any man of the Xiao family would only be a scourge, and Ling Yaoyao should never choose them.
He believes that he is much better than Wei Yuan. At least he will take care of her more meticulously!
Wei Yuan, Qiao Mingyao, and Ye Xi's enthusiasm for Ling Yaoyao are certainly inseparable from her being a very rare and highly talented food assistant therapist.
Does she have to continue to cook for them in order to prove her worth after marrying?!
Ling Xuan suddenly became unhappy. Ling Yaoyao is the daughter of his Ling family, who was raised very carefully, so why would they lose her to someone else's stinky boy!
If Ling Yaoyao stayed at the Ling family's house, she could definitely do whatever she wanted. Every time she cooks, they would worry if she was tired. There would be no such old problem about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law at odds...
Ling Xuan was comparing his own conditions with a group of "rivals" one by one, and he suddenly felt that he should have won.
Facing Xiao Zhen's enthusiasm, Ling Xuan said coldly, "It's impossible for Yaoyao to be with you. After all, your two brothers will never let your uncle's Mo family's Glory Legion and Ling family's Grey Wolf Legion be related by marriage."
Xiao Zhen was stunned, his eyes were a little red, and he roared, "What I like is only Yaoyao herself! It has nothing to do with your Grey Wolf Legion! It has nothing to do with the Glory Legion! Why don't you believe that I don't want that position?"
Ling Xuan said with cold eyes, "It doesn't matter if I believe it or not. The key is that your two brothers won't believe it. A Ling family's daughter will never marry into your Xiao family! While we are talking about this, I ask that the third prince keep a distance from my family's Yaoyao in the future. Don't futilely entangle her and cause her trouble! Otherwise, don't blame me for not being polite!"
Ling Xuan had already said so clearly and ruthlessly. If Xiao Zhen still pesters his sister, it is indeed that he is ignorant and does not know good or bad. Even if he is a prince, it will still not be reasonable.
Xiao Zhen was hit hard, but he still couldn't help but hold a glimmer of hope. "Where is Yaoyao? I want to talk to Yaoyao! I don't believe that she thinks so too..."
At that time, Ling Yaoyao was suddenly in a good mood after receiving a gift she likes so much. She immediately put on the Dream Star stud earrings very happily.
To save her time from going back to the military training base, Ling Xuan directly retrieved her personal space button that she had handed in before. He also found the Biying fruit that was hard to buy even for billions of dollars. He used military training to help her to improve her physical level personally. He also quietly prepared the high-purity dream star stone jewelry for her, which is very popular for auxiliary therapists. Even when she noticed the scars on her wrist that were just a little red...
Ling Yaoyao now feels that Ling Xuan must have just said those things in anger. It doesn't matter! She will just coax him!
She can't blame Ling Xuan for being too much. In fact, she made a lot of wrong moves just now!
Thinking about this, Ling Yaoyao quickly sprayed quick-acting medical spray on the red marks on her wrists and arms and put the Biying fruit into her space button.
She also released 012 from the bathroom, which had become very weak in front of Ling Xuan. Then she soothed the injured little mind of Baby Blood Vine.
012 was very depressed. "Baby will work hard to eat more and grow up soon!"
Ling Yaoyao remembered that since she adopted 012, she hadn't fed it anything. The reason why its body shrank so much before was also because it suffered from her mental power attack. It temporarily dropped in level, and it needed more energy to grow up.
She promised, "Don't worry, I will give you a lot of delicious food when we get home!"
Then, Ling Yaoyao wanted to go out to find Ling Xuan... But who knows, when she arrived at the one-way soundproof doorway, he happened to be in that room. After hearing the second half of the dialogue between Ling Xuan and Xiao Zhen, "I ask that the third prince keep a distance from my family's Yaoyao..."
Ling Yaoyao focused on certain words: "My family's Yaoyao"!
My brother is really upright!
He just told her not to call him brother but turned around to say "My Family's Yaoyao" to outsiders. Isn't what he meant is too obvious!
After hearing Xiao Zhen's words, Ling Yaoyao also wanted to solve this lingering suitor at once. She opened the door directly, stood behind Ling Xuan, and hugged his arm as she always does. Then she said harshly to Xiao Zhen, "My brother's words are what I am thinking! Xiao Zhen, I really only treat you as an ordinary classmate."
Xiao Zhen already noticed Ling Yaoyao's pale blonde hair with the corner of his sharp eyes. After his gaze reached the roots of the ears, her delicate and small earlobes were wearing bright and eye-catching red moonflower dream star stud earrings!
Xiao Zhen remembered the rumor that "Ling Yaoyao and Wei Yuan liked each other" and then looked at Ling Yaoyao's earrings. He suddenly thought that Ling Yaoyao really accepted Wei Yuan.
He was shocked and muttered to himself, "It turns out that you like him like that..." Then he turned and ran away with a look of despair.
Ling Yaoyao was embarrassed. She didn't quite understand Xiao Zhen's words but could faintly guess that the "he" in Xiao Zhen's mouth might be "Wei Yuan," even though she doesn't know why Xiao Zhen suddenly put her and Wei Yuan together.
Wei Yuan was obviously her own brother, but he became a shield several times. If this matter is not explained quickly, she is afraid it will cause even greater misunderstanding.
Ling Xuan's entire arm was stiff. He imagined Ling Yaoyao's reaction after seeing the red moonflower stud earrings, but he never thought it would be so... dull.
He glanced at her face and naturally saw that she was already wearing it... It matched her snow-white complexion.
He just told her not to call him brother, but now she calls him a brother again... Does it mean to decline his feelings, and she just wants to be a sibling? Then why did she wear the confession-like Red Moonlight earrings he gave?
Ling Yaoyao shook his arm when she said, "Brother, don't be angry with me, okay? Let's talk carefully, and I promise to tell you everything you ask me... Of course, the premise is that you are not allowed to be like just now... You scared me! You were like a different person! Also, it is an inexcusable sin to tickle feet or something!" In order to express her anger, the little girl pinched his waist fiercely...
That little strength was like tickling him.
In the end, she touched the red and bloody earrings on her earlobes. "Brother, what flower is this? It's so beautiful, I like it!"
Ling Xuan's heart went up and down, following her every word.
In the end, it was full of disappointment and also a relief.
Moonflower has a special flowering period. It only blooms when there is a moonless night. It is not a very popular flower. Only people with secret crushes will pay special attention to it. It is not surprising that Ling Yaoyao does not know it.
Ling Xuan did not answer her question and only calmly said, "Will you explain about your and Wei Yuan's affairs? Then you say it. I will listen."
Although no one will walk through the aisle they were in. It was not a good place to talk.
Ling Yaoyao didn't want to go back to the lounge anymore, for fear that Ling Xuan would change face again... She was a little entangled. "Let's wait until we go home, and I will tell you?... I saw Mom's message. She and Dad are going home for dinner tonight. When the time comes, everyone will be there, so I'll say to everyone!"
When Ling Yaoyao's words fell in Ling Xuan's ears, it became Ling Yaoyao was about to inform her parents about her and Wei Yuan's relationship. It should be serious, not just a whim.
Ling Xuan withdrew his arm indifferently and said, "I have something to do tonight, so I won't go back for dinner." As soon as he said this, he walked away quickly.
It's just that he was afraid that he would impulsively disagree with her relationship with Wei Yuan, but he can't give a valid reason. Then even his parents will see his mind, but this stupid girl will still be silly and doesn't know anything.
Ling Xuan had long legs and walked quickly. Ling Yaoyao couldn't catch up with him even after trotting.
This time Ling Xuan didn't say anything coldly, but his actions told her that he was really angry.
Ling Yaoyao couldn't understand. Even if she was really in love, why did Ling Xuan react so strangely?
When she found that Ling Xuan had someone she liked, she didn't want her brother to be robbed, but it was not strange when she played a little temper.
But Ling Yaoyao felt that she had overlooked something. There seemed to be something different between her reaction and Ling Xuan's.
When Ling Yaoyao walked out of the battleship hall, she met Zhen Rou.
Zhen Rou was eating happily while holding a cone. When she saw Ling Yaoyao, she waved to her quickly.
It is easier for girls to notice the changes in their good friends, especially Ling Yaoyao's red moonflower earrings are really beautiful and eye-catching. The material, the dream star stone, is also the most favorite material for auxiliary therapists.
Although it is not as hard to find as Biying fruit, high-purity Dream Star Stone is also priceless.
Zhen Rou was so shocked that she dropped her cone. "Wow, Yaoyao, you really are with Wei Yuan? He gave you these stud earrings, right? They look so good!"
Ling Yaoyao touched her ear studs. "Ah? They are not from Wei Yuan!"
Zhen Rou said strangely, "But, the meaning of the red moonflower flower is "Only guarding you in this life." It is said that it also represents the confession of a crush. If you accept it, you agree to the other party... So is it the third prince's gift? Don't you dislike him?"
Ling Yaoyao swallowed the words she almost said, "It's from my brother."
Ling Xuan may just be mistaken. Even she doesn't recognize the moonlight flower. How could he know what meaning is the flower or all sorts of flower language?
But Ling Yaoyao's heart suddenly became uneasy.
Fortunately, after confirming that the earrings were not from Xiao Zhen, Zhen Rou quickly turned her attention to 012, coiled around her wrist.
"Wow, a cute alien pet. So cool! Can I touch it?"
Ling Yaoyao conveyed Zhen Rou's request to 012 in her heart, and 012 very proudly said, "No. I only allow you to hug, kiss, and touch by yourself, owner! Hmm! Just like you and your owner!"
Ling Yaoyao's face suddenly became a little uncomfortable. She corrected 012's misconception in her consciousness: "My brother and I are not what you think! He is my brother, my brother!"
Baby blood vine could not understand the complicated kinship of humans and was stunned, "So is that to say, you can have other owners? Can you be hugged and kissed by other humans? Your human world is so complicated... The baby doesn't understand very much."
Ling Yaoyao was speechless. After she came to this world, except with her mother, Shen Yunjin, she had never been so physically close to anyone...
Even with her good friend, Zhen Rou, at most, she would occasionally pull her hand.
Also, her blood-related brother, Wei Yuan, although he was kind and defended her, they will also keep a proper distance. She can't imagine being closer to Wei Yuan than how she was to Ling Xuan...
Next, Zhen Rou told her that Su Qinghe had made auxiliary medicine in the past three days of field survival training. She exchanged many scorecards with medicines, but the story failed to attract Ling Yaoyao's attention.
She didn't know what she was worried about, but her heart was up and down, and she felt messed up.
She faintly had a terrible guess, but she denied it countless times.
Ling Xuan just regarded her as her younger sister. Ling Xuan clearly had a girl he liked. Maybe he was in a hurry and accidentally gave the wrong gift to her. Did he confuse this gift with the gift he wants to give to the "little fairy" he likes?
Maybe because he had already given out this gift and he was still angry with her, he was embarrassed to ask it back or something.
When she thought of this possibility, Ling Yaoyao's mood was not clear.
Ling Xuan had a crush on a girl and prepared such a meticulous gift for her... As she thinks about it, she knows that even though she is his younger sister, Ling Xuan will not be shaken by her opinion.
Zhen Rou thought that Ling Yaoyao's expression was not good. Maybe she was upset because she said that Su Qinghe was great. She quickly comforted Ling Yaoyao, "Yaoyao, they all said that your achievement is just freeloading Wei Yuan and the others... But I always feel that you will be very good in the future. You are no worse than Su Qinghe. Even if you can't make supplementary foods now, you can make them sooner or later. We call it late bloomers!"
Ling Yaoyao laughed and said, "If I have made them supplementary foods too?"
To facilitate their gossiping, they had chosen a small compartment. So they only need to pay attention to their volume when they speak, and others will not hear them.
Zhen Rou's eyes widened immediately. Her expression was full of joy and admiration. "Yaoyao, you are amazing!!!"
But when she was thinking about the supplementary food prepared by the food supplementary therapist for the first time, generally, the taste will be unspeakable. Zhen Rou immediately said with envy, "It's great. Wei Yuan and the others don't dislike you! I'm so afraid that even if I get lucky and able to make supplementary foods in the future, I won't be able to find anyone who will try it..."
Ling Yaoyao: '... But when she made it, are they rushing to eat it?'
However, Ling Yaoyao wouldn't say such a thing that would attract hatred. Anyway, Zhen Rou would know after eating the supplementary food she made later.
The rest of their journey in the battleship was spent in a conversation with Zhen Rou.
In order to avoid suspicion and fear of misleading rumors, Wei Yuan didn't come to look for Ling Yaoyao for the time being.
By the time Ling Yaoyao returned to the Ling family's house in the Imperial Star, it was already dinner time.
Ling Xuan did not come back...
Ling Yaoyao didn't know if she felt at loss or she was relieved.
She wanted to hold the earrings and ask him if he gave it to the wrong person or if he made the wrong shape.
But she is also afraid of hearing an affirmative answer.
However, to prevent Ling's parents from misunderstanding, she still removed the ear studs first, kept it in her space button, and stored them carefully.
Shen Yunjin hadn't seen Ling Yaoyao for a month and missed her very much. As soon as she walked in, she rushed over and gave her a big hug.
Then she took her hand and looked up and down carefully. She said in distress, "I always feel that my little baby Yaoyao has lost weight. How did Little Xuan take care of you so that you can lose so much weight like this? He is not like an elder brother at all! I specially ordered a lot of delicious food from a five-star robot restaurant. You can eat more and make up for it!"
The military training has such a large amount of exercise, and they can't eat well. How could there be anyone that is not becoming thin at all? Her life was already good. At least she could have a good breakfast at Ling Xuan's place.
Ling Yaoyao said helplessly, "Mom, haven't you noticed? I have grown a little bit taller. My physique has become C-level! Brother also found me a Biying fruit, and I will become B-level after eating it in two days......"
In front of Ling Xuan, she always threatened him that if he didn't treat her better, she would go back and file a complaint with her mother.
Now when she returned home, she was talking about Ling Xuan's good deeds.
Shen Yunjin was shocked. She didn't expect her son would quietly do so much for Yaoyao.
Then who knows what she had remembered. Shen Yunjin's face was a little uncomfortable when she said, "Ahem, your father thought that I was too weak when I had a C-level physique, and he also found a Biying fruit for me..."
Even though Ling Tianyue was a boring person, he was completely thinking about his own welfare. He looked serious, but inside is simply... indescribable.
Ling Xuan as an elder brother, considers his younger sister, it seems reasonable?
Shen Yunjin didn't think much. She took Ling Yaoyao to eat and strictly rejected Ling Yaoyao's proposal to cook by herself. She wants her to rest well.
After 012 was introduced to the Ling family's parents, Shen Yunjin also asked the housekeeper Amber to arrange a place for it and asked a maid robot to pick it up.
Shen Yunjin curiously watched the baby blood vine opened its small sharp mouthparts at the end of its vine. It wipes out all kinds of meat at a very fast speed, but its small body did not grow much larger. Who knows where all the food went.
Shen Yunjin smiled and said, "Your brother said he would come back for dinner, but who knows why he didn't come back suddenly! It's just right to have 012, so there is no need to waste food!"
Ling Tianyue had also learned more about his daughter. Seeing that the meal was almost done, he asked Ling Yaoyao with a serious expression on his face, "I heard that you made supplementary foods? And you are also close to the Wei family boy?"
Ling Yaoyao originally wanted to talk to them about her and the Wei family when Ling Xuan was there. But now that the Ling family's parents are there, Ling Xuan is absent.
But the Ling family's parents don't always have the opportunity to come back. She must take this opportunity to explain the matter and let them understand, and not cause misunderstanding...
