Rules of the Strange: Starting with the Weird Peppa Pig

But Wuxin accepted this setting in a second.

Okay, I'll go with the older sister then, because Little Pear is just too cute.

Her eyes were bright as she took Xiaolizi's hand and sat her down on the living room sofa. She piled all her treasured snacks and game consoles on the coffee table for Xiaolizi to choose from.

Little Pear gently bit her lip, looking at Wu Xin who was so enthusiastic towards her, and was momentarily at a loss for what to do.

At this moment, Wuxin suddenly leaned closer, frowning as she carefully stared at the little pear.

Chapter 204 Li Fan's Sullen Mood

Little Pear's face flushed crimson, turning bright red all the way to her ears, as she watched Wuxin get so close. But why did she think Wuxin's eyes looked so beautiful...?

wrong!

What on earth is going on in her head?!

On the other side, Wuyin invited Lucas into the villa's study, and the three of them sat around the table with Longjing spring tea in front of them.

Wuyin picked up the teacup, gently blew on it, and then took a sip of tea.

"Lucas, what exactly did you want to see me about?"

He knew that Lucas's long journey to visit him was definitely not because he missed them, as Li Fan had jokingly said earlier.

Lucas didn't drink the tea in his cup, staring at Wuyin with a very serious expression, as if he were talking about something very important.

"Now there is only one country in the world, the Dragon Kingdom. All other countries have been integrated into the Dragon Kingdom."

Therefore, we are very likely to face the final challenge of the Rules of the Strange Tales soon. Perhaps the next instance will be the last one, and of course, it is also very likely to be extremely dangerous.

If you don't mind, I'll continue to participate in the next ghost story event, which will be a multiplayer event.

Although I don't have any particularly outstanding advantages, I'm willing to contribute to the entire human civilization, even if it means paying the price with my life. In critical moments, I can be your shield.

Wuyin smiled with some surprise and glanced at the study door.

"What about Little Pear? Aren't you going to take care of her?"

Lucas sighed softly, his expression showing a hint of helplessness.

"I have donated most of my assets to various organizations in Xiaolizi's name, and kept a small portion, which has been transferred to Xiaolizi's name."

If something were to happen to me, those organizations might help Xiaolizi because of the assets I donated. That would be the last thing I can leave to Xiaolizi.

I think I might have acted impulsively when I was at the hospital, taking in Little Pear, but I absolutely do not regret it. I was just worried that Little Pear would not be doing well.

The next instance is fraught with danger. If I don't choose to participate, and the Dragon Kingdom randomly selects someone else, not to mention whether that person is useful or not, you don't even know if their heart is red or black.

You'll have to be wary of both the strange creatures and your teammates, which will greatly slow down your exploration progress.

Silent fingers tapped lightly on the table, as if deep in thought.

He suddenly turned to look at Li Fan.

"What do you think?"

Li Fan was frowning and looking down, seemingly preoccupied with something, when Wu Yin called out to him, bringing him back to his senses.

"Ah, oh, I... I'm fine with anything."

Wuyin glanced at Li Fan with a strange look, but didn't say anything. She turned her head and continued to look at Lucas.

"I believe in your abilities, and I believe you can keep your word."

As Wuyin spoke, she took out a small, jet-black card from her pocket, on which were written in white: Summoning Card.

"After the last instance ended, the system gave me several rewards."

The first reward is to upgrade my Luck talent to A-level; the second is to increase the sense of belonging and confidence of the people of the whole country in the Dragon Kingdom; and the last reward is this summoning card.

A summoning card can summon a Chosen One to the Ghost Story instance. Crushing the summoning card will return the summoned Chosen One to the real world.

"I took into account that you already have an adopted daughter, so I don't want you to be in danger in the next dungeon. But if you say this now, I will use this summoning card to summon you if it really comes to a last resort."

Lucas heard Wuyin's words and was deeply moved.

He wasn't afraid that the silence would put him in danger; he was afraid that the strange tales of rules would really affect the whole world and kill all of human civilization.

He actually wanted to take good care of Xiaolizi for the rest of his life, but that was under the premise that Blue Star was peaceful and tranquil. If Blue Star could be destroyed by the strange tales at any time, how could he be considered to be taking good care of Xiaolizi?

He stood up and bowed deeply to Wuyin.

"Thank you for believing in me, and I will never let you down."

It's getting late, so I'll take Little Pear to catch my flight.

"and many more."

Wuyin also stood up and said to Lucas.

“Little Pear has been traveling with you all day. Even if you don’t care about yourself, you should care about Little Pear. She’s still so young. Why don’t you rest here? Anyway, this villa is big enough and there are plenty of empty rooms.”

Lucas thought for a moment and then nodded.

"Then I shall respectfully comply."

The three of them came out of the study and saw two little girls sitting on the sofa in the living room playing games.

One was focused on the battle, his hands moving so fast they sparked across the screen, while the other looked puzzled, glancing at the controls around him every now and then, his eyes gleaming.

"Xinxin, you're amazing! Even though I'm terrible at this game, you carried me to victory so many times."

Wu Xin looked at the word "Victory" that popped up on the screen, put down her phone, raised her chin, and said smugly.

"I'm the King of No Cores! But Little Pear, for a newbie like you to play like this is already super impressive!"

Pali smiled, her eyebrows curving upwards.

Seeing that the two girls on the sofa were getting along well, Wu Yin felt a little relieved and called out towards the sofa.

"Wu Xin, Pa Li, let's stop playing after this round. It's almost time for dinner."

Wu Xin hummed in agreement, then turned to whisper to Xiao Lizi.

"Let me tell you a secret. Don't let my brother's cool and handsome appearance fool you. He was actually very naughty when he was a kid and often got scolded by the headmaster."

Little Pear couldn't help but giggle as she listened to Wuxin's vivid description.

Wuyin, who was standing to the side, heard her sister's not-so-quiet whisper and her face darkened.

My younger sister really tells everyone everything; I guess I really need to find a chance to teach her a lesson.

Lucas wisely pretended not to hear and turned to walk into the kitchen.

“I usually live alone and I have no one to eat with when I cook. But there are so many people here today, so let’s all try my cooking.”

When Little Pear heard that Lucas was cooking, she immediately turned around and rested her head on the back of the sofa, her eyes sparkling, looking very excited.

"My godfather's cooking is so delicious."

Wu Yin noticed Li Fan next to him again. He found that Li Fan had been sullen ever since he entered the study, and he didn't know what was wrong.

He decided he still needed to find an opportunity to ask him properly, otherwise, it would be hard for a lively guy to stay silent for so long without getting bored.

He spoke to Li Fan.

"Let's go to the kitchen and help Lucas out."

When Li Fan heard Wu Yin speaking to him, he snapped out of his daze and nodded.

"Oh, oh, okay."

Chapter 205 Thoughts

In the kitchen.

Three men wearing aprons were busy in the kitchen, and with a sizzling sound of oil, the aroma of various dishes wafted out.

The two little girls outside smelled the aroma and stopped whispering, instead sticking to the doorway and swallowing hard.

Lucas plated the dishes and placed them on the restaurant tables one by one, smiling as he spoke to everyone.

"Come on over and wash your hands and eat."

Everyone took their seats in turn. Wu Xin couldn't wait to pick up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs. The skin was covered with sweet and sour sauce, and it was so tender that it fell off the bone in one bite, leaving a lingering fragrance in her mouth.

She chewed with a happy expression, never expecting that sweet and sour pork ribs could be made so delicious, and picked up another piece and handed it to Wuyin.

"Brother, you should try it too. This sweet and sour pork ribs is really different from what we've had before. It's the best sweet and sour pork ribs ever."

Wuyin smiled and looked at Wuxin, nodded, and then looked at Li Fan beside her.

Li Fan, who had been sullen, took a bite of Lucas's cooking and his face lit up with craving. He chewed it with gusto, and all his unhappiness vanished.

Wu Yin chuckled softly. It seemed this kid had really been starving while he was in the hospital.

He tasted the sweet and sour pork ribs his sister had put in his bowl, and under the expectant gazes of Lucas and the others, his eyes lit up, and he nodded.

"Mmm, it's really delicious."

Lucas's nose was practically pointing to the sky, and even his voice had a slightly upturned tone.

"That's not true. I started from scratch by opening a restaurant. Everyone who has eaten my food remembers my cooking fondly."

Wu Xin also gave a thumbs-up while eating, and said indistinctly.

"Brother Lucas's cooking skills are truly unparalleled. It seems I'll be longing for it day and night from now on."

Lucas laughed heartily.

"Haha, if you want to eat it, Little Sister Wuxin, just call me anytime."

The atmosphere at the dinner table was harmonious and joyful.

……

At night, Wuyin lay in her room, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

He was debating whether to ask Li Fan what had happened during the day when he suddenly heard the door being pushed open.

He turned his head and saw Li Fan standing at the door, asking softly through the crack in the door.

"Big brother, may I come in?"
