Chen Zhao Xing

Wang Lanhua felt a bit panicked. She hurriedly grabbed Zhu Yan's arm and confessed loudly.

"M-my mission is to find the murderer who made your dad disappear, and kill him!"

Oh, another one who wanted his life.

Zhu Yan's lips curled into a smile, and just as he was about to speak, a somewhat bashful knocking sound suddenly echoed.

"Hello," a strange voice said from outside the door, sounding very much like an androgynous person. "Hewwo, I'm here to eat, can I come in?"

Zhu Yan was startled.

What the hell was talking?

Could a girl even make such a weird sound?

If he hadn't known in advance that everyone in this instance was human, Zhu Yan would have genuinely thought there was a terrifying creature standing outside the door!

Zhu Yan glanced at Wang Lanhua and sneered.

"Don't open the door yet. The ones inside are our own people; who knows what kind of thing is outside."

Right, exactly.

He was the nephew of Wang Lanhua's biological daughter, how could he not be considered one of their own?

Wang Lanhua shivered and subconsciously leaned closer to Zhu Yan.

"Yaozu, what do you say we do now? Mom will listen to you."

Zhu Yan didn't know what the mission of the woman outside the door was.

But it didn't matter, he had the ability Bring Glory to the Ancestors.

As soon as he called out "Dad," the other party would always reveal their true colors.

"Mom, my mission is the same as yours: to make the family dinner go smoothly, and at the dining table, find the main culprit who made Dad disappear."

Zhu Yan imitated Feng Yaozu's tone and gave an arrogant, cold snort.

"Could Dad have disappeared because of us? You don't even have to think about it, it must be because of the people knocking on the door."

Regardless, he had to shift the blame.

A trace of ruthlessness flashed through Wang Lanhua's narrow, cloudy eyes.

Yes.

Her good Yaozu could never do such a thing.

The only two possible murderers could only be those two wretched girls they had never met!

"Yaozu, I think you shouldn't show any mercy when the time comes."

Wang Lanhua's voice was sinister and weird.

"As soon as they walk in, use your ability to suck them dry."

"If they die, how are we supposed to hold the family dinner?" Zhu Yan retorted impatiently. "The requirement for the family dinner is five people, plus a table of meat. As for that meat, I think you shouldn't bother preparing it too much. Just blanch it first and then serve it."

Wang Lanhua's face darkened. Seeing this, Zhu Yan immediately added.

"Blanch it and slice it so they can't tell what it originally looked like, is that so hard?"

The knocking sound rang out again.

"Hewwo. Anyone there?"

Zhu Yan frowned and urged, "Hurry up and go!"

After all, it was Feng Yaozu's order.

Even though Wang Lanhua didn't understand the rules, she still mumbled and chose to believe her precious son.

"Forget it, forget it. With this kind of fresh meat, even if it's not washed much, the fishy smell won't be too strong."

She stood up, walked into the kitchen, and started washing those three hearts with a splashing sound.

Zhu Yan pretended to glare at Li Mei, then walked over and pulled the front door open.

Outside, two people stood one behind the other.

Zhu Yan was startled again.

These two kept their heads down and wore thick, long wigs, making it completely impossible to see their facial features.

They were wearing strange maid outfits, looking very much like the costumes used for cosplay.

More importantly, they were taller than average girls and had a sturdier build.

Although the two of them were artificially trying to make themselves look petite, but...

Zhu Yan gulped and instantly activated the ability Bring Glory to the Ancestors!

These were two freaking men!

"You two dads, what are you trying to do?"

Was this right?

In the information given by the female voice, there was indeed no rule stating that the participants of the Family Dinner had to be two females.

However, according to Wang Lanhua's statement, the ones attending should be two girls!

Asking about the situation at this time couldn't possibly be wrong!

The moment the word "dad" left his mouth, the two of them raised their heads in unison, revealing two faces wearing masks.

One of them looked at Zhu Yan with eyes full of fatherly love, his eyes curving into a smile.

"My name is Chen Zhaoxing," he said, somewhat smugly, his voice returning to normal.

Zhu Yan felt a slight sense of relief.

It seemed to have some effect; the levels of these two players were actually within the coverage range of his ability.

The player in front of him sounded very young, probably about the same age as himself.

"I want to participate in the instance."

Chen Zhaoxing laughed twice, lifting his leg, wanting to step forward.

"I am a freshman at Xishan University. If I participate in the instance on behalf of someone else, I can get a chance to leave Bailu City..."

"Oioioi yeah, if I don't go register soon, I'm really going to turn into a cockroach egg case..."

What the hell?

"Then the person behind you is the same?"

"That's right, son," Chen Zhaoxing said. "His name is Xu Tongguang, we're together."

Zhu Yan cracked.

These two unreliable guys were his classmates?

He turned his head and glanced at the kitchen. After confirming that both Wang Lanhua and Li Mei were still immersed in the splashing sound of water, he quickly stopped Chen Zhaoxing's nonsense.

"Dad, shut up. You will now continue to pretend to be a girl and obediently go to the dining table to eat."

Wang Lanhua was a person with no worldly experience. He was afraid she would go crazy as soon as she saw this situation, and then forget to blanch and plate the meat.

In that case, not only would the fun be cut in half, but it would also be unknown whether this family dinner that required meat could proceed smoothly.

"Don't make a sound," Zhu Yan warned again. "Dads, wear your wigs properly, keep quiet, and then come inside."

Chen Zhaoxing fell silent.

He stared at Feng Yaozu's face, and then suddenly started muttering nonsense in a low voice as if he had gone mad.

"Oh no, oh no, this isn't quite right, Dad. No, you are my son..."

"I don't have a son, I can't possibly have a son. Oh Dad, who are you?"

"Oh no, cockroaches, I have to eat cockroaches..."

What the fuck, could this guy be a lunatic?

Zhu Yan immediately stepped forward, wanting to use the ability Humiliate.

However, Chen Zhaoxing took out two cockroaches from the pocket of his maid outfit and decisively stuffed them into his mouth!

Holy crap.

Zhu Yan was stunned.

What was he eating?

Chen Zhaoxing moved his cheeks, seeming to have recovered a little; his bright eyes looked towards Zhu Yan, suddenly curving up as he broke into a smile.

"I'm normal now." He crazily raised a finger and made a "shh" gesture in front of his mask.

Was this some kind of recovery or healing skill?

"Hehe. You looked back at your mom so nervously just now, and even kept your voice down when talking to us."

"When I spoke loudly, you weren't happy about it."

Chen Zhaoxing brushed aside the wig on his forehead, his eyebrows raised high.

As if remembering something, he took out another two cockroaches, turned around, and stuffed them into Xu Tongguang's mask.

Then he turned back around, maintaining his cynical and casual demeanor, and smiled at Zhu Yan.

"Oh hahaha. You and your mom, uh no, that old woman, aren't on the same side."

"You're afraid she'll find out something, right?"
