Chapter 381 Ten Miles of Lake Blanketed with Frost on a Cold

cloud layers. It seems like it could help with my cultivation in Splitting Light and Shadow Art."Hearing this from Huo Ren, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili looked at each other on his sides, then giggled separa...Chapter 381: A Frosty Sky Over the Ten-Mile Level Lake

Sunny and fragrant with blossoms everywhere.

They were seated around a picnic blanket, with Hao Zhonghua taking out the steaming dishes from sealed lunch boxes one by one.

The atmosphere of this picnic was truly invigorating.

Hao Zhonghua opened the thermos and couldn't help but praise it: "What fragrant fish soup!"

The white, thick broth emitted a tempting aroma.

"Little Jia got up very early in the morning to make this personally," Granny said happily.

Xie Yujia stuck out her tongue slightly and blushed.

"It's just cooking fish soup, I can do it too..." Zhao Yanzi murmured softly.

However, with an empty stomach, she didn't refuse the fish soup that Hao Zhonghua gave to her.

Eating at home and eating outdoors were two different concepts. Sitting on the grass, enjoying food while watching clouds drift by, this relaxed feeling was something you couldn't get from a dining table at home.

Occasionally Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu would take Zhao Yanzi to play in the countryside but they never took her out for a picnic before. The reason being that it's much less lively with just three people compared to four or five.

Todays unexpected acquisition of a suitable weapon made Zhao Yanzi very cheerful, and her radiant smile complemented the sunlight in the valley, making it seem even brighter.

In the background of green mountains and clear water, Zhao Yanzi's sweet face, like cake, everything felt like slow-motion television commercials.

Yue Yang saw Hao Ren staring at Zhao Yanzi opposite him, eating with a slightly dazed expression. He smiled輕鬆地笑了笑。

The beauty of Zhao Yanzi today was indeed very beautiful. If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Yanzi had already been regarded by Yue Yang as his future wife, he would really want to take Zhao Yanzi in as his daughter.

"Yujia, you've worked hard today. Eat more," Hao Zhonghua scooped up a large piece of fish meat and placed it in Xie Yujia's bowl.

He deliberately treated Xie Yujia specially, which represented his recognition of her.

"Thank you for your kindness, Uncle," Xie Yujia was flattered and quickly held the rice bowl with both hands.

Hao Ren turned to look at Xie Yujia and found that she looked very pretty in the sunlight too. This kind of gentleness and tranquility was something Zhao Yanzi's lively and mischievous character lacked.

"Mom, would you like a glass of corn juice" Zhao Yanzi proactively picked up the drink and filled a cup for Yue Yang.

"Aizhi is really obedient," Yue Yang laughed happily.

"Hao Ren, what kind of drink do you want" Xie Yujia suddenly asked Hao Ren.

Zhao Yanzi suddenly stared at Xie Yujia.

"I'll have apple juice." Xie Yujia calmly picked up a drink and poured one for Hao Ren.

sizzle...

The feeling of two barriers rubbing against each other spread around Harker.

One was at the Foundation Establishment stage, and the other was at the seventh layer of Qi Refinement. They were secretly competing with each other, trying their best to release their auras.

At this lunchtime, there were some young people around who had come here for spring outings. They seemed to sense two dazzling lights flashing in their eyes and turned to look at Harker's direction. Upon seeing Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia, they couldn't help but stare.

Zhao Yanzi was dynamic while Xie Yujia was serene; both exuded a unique aura that set them apart from ordinary people in the eyes of common folks.

"Sir."

The two clear voices rang out simultaneously.

Everyone who had been captivated by Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia turned their heads.

They saw Lu Lingling and Lu Lili, sisters dressed in colorful fruit-toned cardigans and floral dresses, holding hands and running over to Harker's direction.

The two of them were wearing small sun hats and carrying pink handbags. Running through the field of wildflowers made them look as light as if they could fly.

Core Formation stage

A grandiose aura, blinding beauty

Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia, who were secretly engaging in a competition, instantly paled in comparison.

The nearby crowd gawked at Lu Lingling and Lu Lili, finding them to be divine.

"Sir..." Lu Lingling and Lu Lili rushed up to Harker's side, each gently linking their arm through his left and right arms respectively.

Sput...

Seeing this scene, those young men almost spat out blood.

"Little Lingling, Little Lili, how come you two are here" Grandmother looked at the Lu sisters with surprise and asked.

"The weather is nice. We came to play too and coincidentally saw Grandma and Sir," Lu Lingling replied with an incredibly sweet smile.

They kept their actions consistent: one hand holding onto Harker, the other fixing their sun hats, proving that this outfit was for a spring outing.

Yue Yang slowly let out a sigh upon seeing how close the Lu sisters were to Harker. He felt rather helpless about it.

Grandmother didn't mind at all and took out two more pairs of chopsticks, "What a coincidence! Why don’t you sit down and eat together then"

"Thank you, Grandma," the Lu sisters accepted the chopsticks without hesitation. They gently let go of Harker's arms and smiled as they started eating the dishes on the tablecloth.

Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia exchanged glances before averting their eyes from each other. It was obvious that with the Lu sisters around, there was no way for them to continue their competition.

The Foundation Establishment stage and Qi Refinement stages were mere grains of light compared to the strength of the Lu sisters.

"Grandma, the whole city had an alarm last night because of a tornado. Everyone was scared," Lu Linnin and Lu Lili said to their grandma after sitting down.

"Haha, you were better off in the city. We were by the seaside and that's when things got scary," Grandma smiled as she replied.

Lu Linnin and Lu Lili looked confused like two little chicks pecking at rice. This cute appearance made Grandma smile broadly.

"When I woke up in the morning, there were fish and shrimps all over the streets. They were all washed ashore from the sea," Lu Lili said while gnawing on her chopsticks and pouting.

"The news also reported that it was fortunate the alarm went off in the middle of the night because otherwise, the tornado would have caused a lot more damage when it landed by the coast," Lu Linnin added.

The midnight alarm had been initiated due to a call from Yue Yang. Therefore, upon hearing this information, Yue Yang felt very relieved.

As a result, Yue Yang's attitude towards them became much more pleasant.

"Donghai City's weather forecast system is operational all day and night. Furthermore, the detection systems used in the Donghai area are also among the most advanced," Yue Yang happily explained to Lu Linnin and Lu Lili.

Lu Linnin and Lu Lili responded with sweet smiles, "Yes, Aunt seems to be responsible for weather work in Donghai City."

Yue Yang couldn't help but laugh; he simply could not resist the charm of the Lu sisters.

The playful conversation between Lu Linnin and Lu Lili made the picnic atmosphere even more lively.

Zhen Ciming initially wanted to maintain a solemn demeanor, pretending to be mature. However, as it was his first time going out for a picnic, he eventually started to feel happy as well while chatting with everyone.

After all, Zhen Ciming had only just transformed and was still like a child in many ways.

The impatient Xiao Bai, after eating halfway through her meal, rolled around on the grass, circling aimlessly around Hao Ren and Grandma. She would then dash forward for ten or so steps before pouncing on butterflies resting on flowers.

This lively posture of hers made several girls nearby unable to resist reaching out to call her over. Xiao Bai didn't know about modesty; she immediately ran up happily, sticking her tongue out and rubbing against the girls' waists, eating their sausage.

"Xiao Bai!" Hao Ren pretended to be angry as he called out. Xiao Bai jumped up abruptly and ran back to Hao Ren's side with a wagging tail.

"You dead Xiao Bai, you just like hanging around other girls," Zhao Yanzi tightly hugged Xiao Bai, using her arm to pin down Xiao Bai’s neck so she wouldn't escape again.

Chu chu chu

Xiao Bai flailed her limbs, struggling hard.

Hao Ren suddenly felt a chill run up his spine. Could Zhao Yanzi's words be directed at someone other than Xiao Bai

The picnic ended with Yue Yang accompanying Zhao Yanzi to fly kites while Hao Zhonghua took Hao Ren to the nearby little river for fishing.

Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang were so busy with their research that they often neglected communication with their children. Today, they wanted to strengthen family ties.

Hao Zhonghua and Hao Ren put fish bait and fishing lines into the river and sat side by side under the shade of an osmanthus tree.

The sunlight shone on the river, reflecting silver rays.

"Ren, what are you thinking" Hao Zhonghua looked at Hao Ren and asked.

Hao Ren looked at him.

Hao Zhonghua turned around to look, and Hao Ren followed suit.

In the nearby grassland, Yue Yang was leading Zhao Yanzi in flying a kite. Due to the suitable airflow in the valley, Zhao Yanzi’s kite kept rising higher and higher as she grew increasingly delighted, pulling on the kite string while laughing heartily.

In another direction, by the car, Xie Yujia was packing up the picnic mat and leaning against a tree chatting with her grandmother.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were walking along a path lined with flowers when suddenly, after an unknown conversation, Lu Linlin cleverly ran away, leaving behind red-faced Lu Lili who dashed through the flower beds in pursuit.

Farther off, Zhen Congming threw a frisbee high up into the air; Xiaobai took off running full speed to chase it.

"What are you thinking" Hao Zhonghua asked Hao Ren again.

Xiaobai made an impressive jump and caught the frisbee in its mouth.

Lu Lili caught up with Lu Linlin, sending them tumbling into a flower bed where they began to playfully wrestle.

By the car, Xie Yujia who was chatting with her grandmother suddenly burst out laughing joyfully.

Zhao Yanzi looked up at the kite soaring high in the sky, slightly squinting due to the glare of sunlight as she shaded her forehead with her fair hand.

Hao Ren gradually drew his gaze back.

"A frosty night on a ten-mile lake, sorrow fills each year of my youth. Looking at the moon alone I long for companionship, preferring lovebirds to immortality." Hao Ren said.

"Preferring lovebirds to immortality..." Hao Zhonghua recited in a light tone.

“Sir”

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili ran over. "Is Sir fishing"

The warm weather made them pause before Hao Ren, both with rosy cheeks.

"Mm." Hao Ren nodded.

“We will watch Sir fish,” said Lu Linlin and Lu Lili as they sat down on either side of Hao Ren.

Their puckered mouths made them look like two little fish.

Their appearance disrupted the conversation, leaving Hao Zhonghua to smile helplessly and make a double entendre at Hao Ren: "If your heart isn’t calm enough, you won’t catch even one fish."

Swish...

Hao Ren’s fishing rod suddenly lifted.

A silver carp weighing two pounds splashed onto the grass behind Hao Ren.
