Quick Transmigration: Hosts, We're Only Responsible for Counterattacking

Chapter 163 The World Has Mermaid Language (7)

Yan Fa'an frowned and said in a low voice, "In that case, take it to the kitchen, tell them to roast it over a fire, sprinkle some seasoning on it, and then bring it back to me."

Roasted over a high flame?

Oh no, it's going to be eaten?
Although it was in pain all over its body, 2345 still struggled to move; it was still alive.

Shen Ran's lips twitched slightly when he saw the white ball under his feet move. "Patriarch, it's not dead yet."

He had always known that the head of the family was an unreliable person who always acted on a whim, but he never expected it to be this outrageous.

Yan Fa'an lowered his head and stared intently, considering whether he should add something.

Shen Ran, who had been by his side for decades, knew what he was thinking just by looking at his eyes. He nimbly kicked the white ball of fur away.

Then she smiled and said, "Master, what do you think of Lingpao's service?"

After asking this question, Shen Ran felt bitter. The elders were all anxious because the patriarch had never had a woman by his side, and the only person they had managed to keep was a man, who was said to serve them at night.

This led to him being stopped as soon as he stepped out this morning, with the implication being that the family head was testing what he thought of this Ling Paopao.

What he was really thinking was that although the head of the family might act crazy from time to time, he should be normal in terms of aesthetics.

Lingpaopao's appearance was so stunning that he couldn't utter a single word of praise.

"Not bad." Upon hearing this name, Yan Fa'an nodded with relief. These past few days, he had been waking up to find himself properly covered with a blanket, and he wasn't sleeping in any strange positions as usual, which was something to celebrate.

Shen Ran carefully examined his expression and was surprised to see satisfaction in that wooden face. His eyelids kept twitching, which was not a good sign.

He thought for a moment and said, "This Ling Paopao also has a younger sister who performed well in this trial. If the patriarch is willing, why not have her serve alongside Ling Paopao?"

If this continues, the head of the household will surely be able to see the charm of women.

"No need," Yan Fa'an refused decisively.

Shen Ran looked puzzled. "Why?" He thought the girl was quite pretty.

"I don't like the look of it."

Shen Ran remained silent for a long time, his eyes becoming vacant. Thinking of the elders' instructions, he twitched the corner of his mouth and decided to ignore it.

In any case, he's not a member of the Yan family. If he were to interfere in the Yan family head's life-long affairs, it would be like the emperor being more anxious than the eunuch.

Bah! He's not a eunuch.

"Ouch." [Nangong Fangrui has been locked up.]

2345, which finally managed to climb back up, is now unusually well-behaved and has even started a high-definition live stream.

The once proud princess of the Nangong family was now in a dark, prison-like place, her limbs were chained, and her exposed fair skin had many bruises.

His eyes were covered by a black cloth, and his pale lips were slightly chapped.

"Who avenged me?" Shen Yun began to ponder. When the original owner was tied up in the Nangong family, besides Lingzhi, was there anyone else who was on good terms with her?
"Aww." [Host, stop dreaming. In the Nangong family, you're like Tang Sanzang's flesh—everyone wants a bite out of you. How could anyone possibly avenge you?]

2345 spoke very bluntly.

Shen Yun paused, then pressed his hand firmly against his heart.

Don't be angry, don't be angry, she is a gentle and kind person.

"Aww." [It's Ai Wan, she's now Nangong Chuqi's darling.] 2345 quickly added, seeing that he was the fastest again.

Nangong Chuqi is Nangong Fangrui's older brother and the head of the Nangong family.

But Nangong Chuqi always granted her younger sister's every wish. Shen Yun's expression turned somewhat strange, thinking that even if Ai Wan had won over Nangong Chuqi, the others couldn't just stand by and watch Nangong Fangrui be punished.

But the facts are right before our eyes. There were indeed people who spoke up for Nangong Fangrui, but with Nangong Chuqi's help and Nangong Fangrui's usual ruthlessness, those who were loyal to her were only afraid of her identity.

Nowadays, Nangong Chuqi treats even the lowest-ranking servant better than his own sister.

When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down; her current predicament is not surprising.

Hearing this, Shen Yun wasn't particularly happy. After all, in her eyes, Nangong Fangrui was indeed a spoiled little princess, but such a defeat was truly unbearable.

Being treated like this by her own brother, she must feel even more resentful.

"Ai Wan is really amazing!" Shen Yun exclaimed sincerely. After all, what she had just seen on the screen showed that Ai Wan's harem had already developed into a vast empire, with Nangong Chuqi at the head and Shao Qian as her assistant.

This is the true daughter of Heaven.

Upon seeing this, 2345 quickly turned off the screen and then remained as quiet as a chicken.

Suddenly, it's terrified that its host will call it trash.

"Give me a cheat code, will you?" Shen Yun asked tentatively. "Otherwise, with Ai Wan's protagonist aura being so strong, I reckon she'd be crushed by her admirers before she even gets close to her."

2345 thought to himself, "You're kidding me. You have countless treasures hidden away, and you're still thinking about this little thing?"

It opened its little mouth and its eyes were sincere.

"Ooh." [No.]

Shen Yun glanced down at 2345, his eyes lowered so that the contents could not be seen, but one could feel an invisible killing intent gradually spreading outward.

2345 quickly activated a speed-up skill in the mall to escape the chaotic scene.

It was still thinking to itself, "I hope that when the host returns to the system space and sees that the points are negative, they won't be angry with me."

After all, its appearance in this world, in physical form, is for the good of its host.

Whether for home or travel, it can be cute and cozy in bed.

"Bubble." A voice came from outside the door, and it sounded like Ayaori.

Shen Yun suppressed his anger, tried to calm himself down, and strode out.

"Ayaori?"

Upon seeing Aya's appearance, Shen Yun was still somewhat dazed. In just a few days, Aya's aesthetic sense had completely changed.

She wore a pink fairy dress, her hair was divided into two sections and tied into two buns, each with a golden bell at the bottom. It seemed that a ribbon was tied to the bell, which would sometimes fall behind her and sometimes touch her fair earlobes as she walked.

This outfit isn't exactly unattractive.

Shen Yun asked subconsciously, "Aya, have you been dressing like this lately?"

Aya lowered her head, glanced at it, and then took two steps forward. "Shen Ran told me to come to you dressed like this."

She blinked, looking completely innocent.

Sure enough, she was still thinking, Yan Fa'an is so old and in the position of the head of the family, yet he doesn't have a single woman by his side, so why isn't anyone advising him?

So that's where the real trick was.

However, judging from Yan Fa'an's dog-like nature, he has absolutely no talent for appreciating beautiful women.
