Chapter 91 Auntie, don't cry!

The next morning, when Jiang Lan opened her eyes, it was already broad daylight outside.

He rubbed his eyes and was about to get up when he remembered that he didn't have to train today.

Su Wan gave him two days off.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lan turned over and sat up.

Shen Qingqiu had already gone to work by now.

A breakfast was placed on the living room table.

Plain congee with fried eggs, and a side dish covered with plastic wrap.

Jiang Lan walked over and sat down, finishing her breakfast in a few bites.

After finishing his meal, he yawned and sat down to scroll through his phone.

To be honest, since coming to the Martial Arts Academy, he doesn't think he's ever had a time like this where he has nothing to do.

Every day, he either goes to training, to the spiritual energy chamber, or goes hunting outside the city.

He felt a little uneasy about suddenly having so much free time.

Jiang Lan took out her phone and opened the three-person group chat.

Zhao Xuan sent a bunch of messages in the group, starting at six in the morning and continuing intermittently until after nine.

Most of it is just everyday nonsense, but there are a few useful points mixed in.

I heard the military is planning a large-scale operation to thoroughly clean up the northern frontier, and it seems several other universities will be involved as well.

Details are not yet available; an official announcement should follow.

After reading it, Jiang Lan casually sent an emoji.

After sending the message, he put away his phone and sat in the room for a while longer.

I'm just idling around anyway.

He thought about it for a moment, then decided to go back to his room and get some more sleep.

In the afternoon, I went to pick up Shen Qingqiu from get off work.

……

At 4:30 pm, at the entrance of the logistics support department.

Jiang Lan leaned against a lamppost by the roadside, scrolling through her phone while waiting for someone.

Not long after, a group of people came out from the gate.

Shen Qingqiu walked among them, carrying a canvas bag in her hand. She said something to her colleague next to her, and then they parted ways.

She looked up and saw Jiang Lan, and her steps clearly faltered.

"Why are you here?"

"I was on vacation and had nothing to do, so I came to pick you up from get off work." Jiang Lan put her phone in her pocket, took the bag from her hand, and said, "Let's go out to eat?"

Shen Qingqiu glanced at him, her tone slightly teasing:

"Are you tired of my cooking?"

"No way," Jiang Lan said, stepping forward. "Auntie has been working all day and still has to go home to cook. She must be so tired. I'm just worried about her."

Shen Qingqiu rolled her eyes, but her expression remained smiling.

After walking along the street for a while, the two went into a nearby restaurant.

He had been to this restaurant a few times before; the prices were reasonable and the food was quite good.

Jiang Lan found a seat by the window and pushed the menu in front of Shen Qingqiu.

"Auntie, would you like some?"

Shen Qingqiu flipped through the menu and ordered a sauerkraut fish, a plate of stir-fried pork, and a dish of cold wood ear mushrooms.

After the dishes were served, the two ate and chatted.

"Why are we suddenly on holiday today?" Shen Qingqiu asked casually, picking up a piece of fish.

"I've changed advisors."

Shen Qingqiu paused in her work and looked up at him.

"Change advisors? Why?"

"Teacher Lu can't teach me anymore," Jiang Lan said. "He said it himself, and asked the school to arrange someone more capable for me."

Shen Qingqiu was stunned for a moment.

She had long known that Jiang Lan's growth rate was faster than that of ordinary people.

But how long has Jiang Lan been in the Central Base City?

As far as she knew, Lu Yuan was a powerful cultivator in the mid-stage of the Blood Exchange realm.

In other words, even at the mid-stage of the blood transfusion, he is no longer able to teach Jiang Lan?

So, to what extent has this kid's strength grown?

Thinking of this, her gaze towards Jiang Lan became somewhat complicated.

Shen Qingqiu suddenly remembered that she used to be the captain of the scavenging team. Every time they went out of the city, Jiang Lan had to hide behind her. Even when they encountered an Ironback Wolf, they had to go around it.

And now...

Seeing this, Jiang Lan also glanced at Shen Qingqiu, but he couldn't figure it out either, only that Shen Qingqiu's reaction was a bit strange.

What is my aunt thinking?

However, he didn't think much of it, and simply added a piece of meat to Shen Qingqiu's bowl, saying:

"Auntie, why don't you just quit your job? We're not short of money right now, you can do whatever you want."

Although Jiang Lan is spending credits like crazy, he's earning them even faster.

It's only a matter of him going out of the city once, whether it's tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.

The meager salary Shen Qingqiu earns from his job is negligible compared to his current income.

Shen Qingqiu glanced at Jiang Lan and said:

"You think you can just quit your job like that? Are you going to support me?"

"Of course," Jiang Lan said seriously. "You're my aunt, so it's only right that I take care of you."

When Jiang Lan said it, she didn't think it was anything special.

But Shen Qingqiu's reaction was somewhat unexpected by Jiang Lan.

Her eyes welled up with tears almost immediately.

Seeing Shen Qingqiu like this, Jiang Lan immediately panicked, pulled out a piece of paper from the side, walked over to Shen Qingqiu, and wiped away her tears while saying:

"Auntie, what's wrong with you? Fine, I won't take care of you anymore!"

Shen Qingqiu: "..."

She snatched the tissue from Jiang Lan's hand, slapped his hand, and then rolled her eyes.

Jiang Lan stood there, unsure whether to stand or sit.

To be honest, he had never seen Shen Qingqiu cry, especially not in front of him.

Jiang Lan had absolutely no experience with this kind of thing before.

For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

"Auntie, don't cry. What did I do to upset you? I'll change, okay?"

At this moment, Shen Qingqiu also stopped crying, took a slow breath and said:

"It's alright, I lost my temper. Let's go home."

Jiang Lan felt as if she had been granted a pardon and quickly replied, "Okay."

After saying that, he went to pay the bill.
