Chapter 258: “In fact, I can also touch.”

Translated by Addis of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Editor: GaeaTiamat

At the end of the day, Bai Li and Wen XingYao still shared a portion of the dish that belonged to a human meal, and while they couldn’t say that they ate as much as they wanted, they weren’t hungry either. The five old people felt the fullness in their bellies, and were so satisfied that their eyes were narrowed. Too comfortable, too good. Was this the mysterious power of the Ancient Blue Star legendary culinary delicacies? What had they been missing all these years!

“That, Little Fox, ah, you brought over this food…” Old Turtle said halfway through a pocket of saliva before he continued, “Is this the way it has developed outside, or are you two little ones only capable of doing it yourselves?”

Bai Li first pointed to himself. “I provide most of the ingredients. I also try to grow a lot of vegetables in my own yard. The finished product is better than the taste sent from the agricultural planet.” Then pointed to Wen XingYao. “However, I don’t have any culinary talent, so the ingredients being made into finished products is thanks to Wen XingYao. Is his craft satisfactory to everyone?”

Master Wen’s pupils quaked and he looked incredulously at his grandson’s hands. He had always thought that Wen XingYao’s hands would only be used to cut those dreadful Zerg. He never expected that his use of the kitchen knife would be so good! There was a feeling of having lost money in the past. What was it?

Wen XingYao nodded to acknowledge Bai Li’s statement. “Mn, I did all this. However, I wasn’t born knowing how to cook. I learned fishing and cooking as my two life skills in the game Carefree Farmstead which was designed by Bai Li. It has many recipes for us players to learn and create freely. For example, if we eat a good dish and we want to try to make it ourselves, there is a certain chance of success.”

In the game’s “icon collection system,” in addition to crops and fish, another collection that was relatively large was the recipes.

Lu Ying instantly caught the meaning, “Wait! You said ‘good-tasting dishes.’ Is this everywhere in the game? How about the taste of the ingredients in the game, it shouldn’t be the same as in reality, right?”

She actually had a vague hunch in her heart that the taste of the ingredients in the game was likely to be infinitely close to the taste of the ingredients from the Ancient Blue Star Period. In this virtual reality game called Carefree Farmstead, Interstellar people could experience a life that they may not have in their lifetime.

The culinary delicacies aspect alone was enough to make people swoon.

“Yes, it’s all there.” Wen XingYao gave an affirmative answer.

The five old people who had just had enough to eat and drink began to stir again. Before, Bai Li hadn’t specifically introduced the playing of Carefree Farmstead. He’d only given it a simple mention, and they, in the spirit of supporting the younger generation, expressed their encouragement. Now well…Since they knew that game was actually such a magical existence, and that there were various culinary delicacies in it, they were eager to enter the game on the spot to play. However, unfortunately just as that idea just emerged, Bai Li poured cold water on it.

“Sorry, grandparents, this month’s game quota…Ahem, they’re all gone. But don’t worry, when the game is upgraded for the last time next month, I will definitely leave some of the game slots for everyone!”

And he would leave quite a large number of places in his hands for the convenience of the friends and family around him. After all, it was the last time the game could be upgraded and then no one else could enter it.

Several people ate and drank enough, then they cleaned up the “battlefield,” and decided to leave to go back to the hotel. Before the official departure, Bai Li also received a message from Zhu MoLing. He said that he tried to talk to his parents, and although he couldn’t understand what they were saying, what he said was understood by his parents. After they knew that Bai Li was found, they immediately came back with Zhu MoLing.

Together with them came several old men from the Fox Clan, and Tang Ying’s family.

Bai Li hugged his parents’ beast forms, smiled, and said “yes” to everything they said to him. His eyes were red, so it was clear that his inner turmoil was not small.

“Okay, okay, you kid. You’re so old now, why do you still like to stick to me and your dad?” Bai Li’s mother, Yan Siya’s beast type was a fox covered in fiery red fur. Her eyes were full of tenderness as she looked at her little son, and smiled and teased him.

Father Zhu Shuo, on the other hand, silently squeezed his tail into his son’s hand. This little son, whom he had known since childhood, liked to touch all kinds of furry things. He and his wife had often been begged to turn into their original form. Of course, the family wasn’t missing Zhu MoLing.

As Brother Zhu MoLing coughed lightly, he said sternly with his eyes, “QingLing, let go of Mom and Dad. You can say what you want to say when we go back to the room. Right now, we are still outside.” Meaning, when the door was closed, you can rub them however much you want, and also let yourself go back to beast form to pet them.

Since he heard Zhu MoLing’s subtext, Bai Li readily let go and smilingly announced to his parents that he would treat them to something good later. Of course, they had given a portion of the food they had prepared to each person who came over with them, and how the others handed over that food was up to them.

Bai Li also introduced Wen XingYao to his parents, but when he turned around and met Wen XingYao’s eyes, he felt that there was something strange about the other’s gaze. It was a slightly darker gold but not gloomy, a bit like a vortex that almost sucked him in.

Bai Li wrinkled his nose, and didn’t take the other’s short-lived disturbance to heart, and instead took initiative to hold Wen XingYao’s hand so that his parents could get a good look at Wen XingYao.

The old man, Wen Xiao, behaved very well this time. He didn’t give Zhu Shuo and Yan Siya the opportunity to respond, just went forward to greet the “in-laws.”

Zhu Shuo, Yan Siya, “…”

The two men carefully observed the facial expressions of their youngest son and the Imperial Admiral, and found that their son was acting very intimate with the latter, with a kind of dependence that he might not even be aware of himself. The latter, on the other hand, was constantly watching their youngest son’s every move, with the rest of his attention being turned to them. However, his gaze towards the two of them held a sense of respect and humility. The two parents were satisfied, and tacitly approved of the fact that Bai Li and Wen XingYao were dating.

The only dissatisfied person in the room might be brother-in-law Zhu MoLing, who assumed his parents would be a little difficult towards Wen XingYao, but they were not. That had been his expectation.

After they ate a meal with his parents, it was late at night. The elders were not as spirited as the younger people, and while they enjoyed the spiritual and physical satisfaction that day, they  soon retired to rest. As for the young people, some got into the gaming pod, while some were lying in bed doing sports that JJWXC does not allow to be typed.

After another round of thunder and lightning ended, Bai Li shrank under the covers and panted gently. Just then, he felt that the mattress beside him seemed to be caving in. He looked up and met with a pair of golden eyes. He was at a loss for words for a moment, and his heart skipped a beat with a not-so-good feeling.

No one had told him that after some intense exercise, Therians would suddenly change back into the shape of a beast. It couldn’t be that Wen XingYao’s Genetic Collapse Disorder hadn’t been completely eradicated, could it?

“Are you…are you okay?” Bai Li stammered for the first time, and tried to get up to check Wen XingYao’s body.

The lion next to him gently pressed back, and at the same time, his hand was stuffed with a hard, slightly warm, short fluffy surface. One of the fluffy things. The tip of his tail seemed to enjoy Bai Li’s gaze, and in his eyes there was a faint shimmer, not bright and not harsh, just enough to make people feel warm.

Bai Li also muttered strangely, “Hey. Supreme’s tail tip used to be cool to the touch.”

The glowing tip of the tail stiffened suspiciously, and Wen XingYao’s voice came from overhead, “That’s not important.”

“Then what’s more important?” Bai Li had already consciously played with the new “toy” his boyfriend had slipped him.

The big lion’s body shivered sensitively, and his voice rasped, “I saw that when you met with aunt and uncle before, you seem to like to have a lot of contact with them. Do you like to touch the soft fur? In fact, I can also give you a touch.”

It was rare that he didn’t cover up and expressed his thoughts bravely. To show his determination, the whole lion also leaned in Bai Li’s direction, and already had a small half of his body burrowed into the quilt. 

Bai Li, “…” His premonition came true, but it seemed to be completely different from what he thought.

To be honest, Bai Li still missed Wen XingYao’s beast form, a powerful and dominant lion. Just seeing it from a distance, he could fall for that body’s aura, and the feeling was indescribable.

Even though he had that thought, Bai Li used his free hand to push Wen XingYao outward, but also nonchalantly let him stay.

“Why, don’t you like it?” Wen XingYao felt aggrieved for himself. Was it that his own beast type actually couldn’t attract the attention of his boyfriend?

“…” Again Bai Li took a moment to explain. “Let me put on clothes. The fur on your body is not compatible with the word ‘soft’.”

How could he explain that it was strange, prickly and scratchy.

It was Wen XingYao’s turn to be speechless. He waited for Bai Li to put on clothes, while secretly searching for hair softener on TaoTao, he threw them into the shopping cart one by one, then directly paid. There would be a lot that they wouldn’t use afterwards, but it was important to buy it first. Soon, his wounded little heart was soothed, and Bai Li, who had put on his pajamas, quickly returned to the nest, and his hands and feet moved unfaithfully over him, almost igniting a new fire.

The two of them had a good time before they went to sleep together.

When he got up the next day, Bai Li received a message from Tang Ying, the president and vice president that the people they had arranged for had arrived at Hope Star early that morning, and that it was up to Bai Li to decide what he wanted to do with them afterwards.

Bai Li was so excited that he jumped up from the bed, dragged Wen XingYao up as well, then hurriedly washed up. He was ready to go out to meet his farming troops!

Hehehe! The Ministry of the Military sent 1,000 people, and the Institute sent 500 people. With so many people, he should soon be able to plant that secret area, right?
