Chapter 577: Cruel Measures

Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave

Everyone got off the MCV and walked on the courtyard of a villa. That villa belonged to Zhang Mingze, but after killing him, Jiang Liushi used it to temporarily accommodate his teammates.

Next to the swimming pool was a grill and a table with various prepared ingredients such as seasoned meat, vegetables, and fungi. Apart from Zhang Hai and Sun Kun, Ling and Ying were also standing before the grill. Both of them were staring at the ingredients on the fire carefully and unblinkingly.

“Dear brother, it’s really delicious,” said Jiang Zhuying while eating.

Jiang Liushi just stared at her. “Little girl, you should try to barbecue on your own instead of eating all the time.”

Jiang Zhuying smiled and grimaced before getting close to him. Then, she looked at her brother meaningfully and whispered, “My dear brother, you’d better sort out you love affairs first…”

“Love affairs? Uh…” Jiang Liushi was stunned. He wondered whether his sister knew what happened earlier between him and Xiang Xuehai. He felt really lucky that he had controlled himself. Otherwise, he would be unable to face his sister ever again.

Soon, the other girls walked over. Jiang Liushi looked at them, and he felt rather embarrassed when his eyes fell on Xiang Xuehai.

“Come and eat. It’s indeed delicious,” said Jiang Liushi with a smile.

Xiang Xuehai nodded, and she gracefully picked a few pieces of barbecued meat, placing them on her plate. Then, she sat on a chair and tasted them slowly.

At that moment, Li Yuxin gently pulled Ran Xiyu and said, “Xiyu, Xiyu, let’s barbecue together.”

“Uh? Good idea…” said Ran Xiyu and followed Li Yuxin to the grill.

The grill was made of steel and to use it one needed to burn charcoal. Although Li Yuxin was quite good at cooking, she had never used such primitive tools. It was also the Ran Xiyu’s first time to use such an old tool. It was natural as Ran Xiyu was born in a very rich family, and she had never needed to deal with such menial tasks as cooking.

Still, they were both very careful when handling the ingredients on the fire. Ran Xiiyu’s eyes were even exuding a silver luster as she was focusing all her attention on the ingredients. At such a state, Ran Xiyu could notice every subtle change in the ingredients. She completed all the processes smoothly and beautifully. In order to barbecue, she directly used her mental powers, so the difficulty of controlling the fire was nothing to Ran Xiyu.

Upon seeing that Ran Xiyu was harnessing her power, Li Yuxin also used her special ability. As she was turning a mutant steak, she activated her power, and a scalpel appeared. She used it as a knife and sliced the steak carefully before turning it. It was not exaggerated to say that the two girls were making a piece of art instead of ordinary barbecue.

Jiang Liushi was slack-jawed. “It’s just barbecue, why are you two so serious?”

Soon, the first batch of barbecued food was ready.

“Brother Jiang, please taste Xiyu’s and my cooking. I was responsible for the meat, while Xiyu cooked the vegetables,” said Li Yuxin happily.

Ran Xiyu just stood there without saying a word until Li Yuxin spoke again. “Uh…Brother Jiang, will you have a taste?” Then, they handed the delicious food to Jiang Liushi with shy smiles.

Jiang Liushi tasted the food excitedly and said, “Wow! I’m enjoying this so much! It’s great! Xiyu and Yuxin, you’re quite good at cooking!”

Jiang Liushi’s praise made Ran Xiyu and Li Yuxin feel happy

Suddenly, Xiang Xuehai put the plate in her hands on the table. Then, she stood up and said, “Oh, I’m so hungry. I should also help to cook.” Xiang Xuehai realized that both Li Yuxin and Ran Xiyu were trying to express their feelings. Instinctively, Xiang Xuehai felt the two girls were special to Jiang Liushi. She was certain that both Ran Xiyu and Li Yuxin had deep feelings for Jiang Liushi, which was quite normal. After all, they lived in the same vehicle, experiencing many crises and happy moments together. If they didn’t like Jiang Liushi, that would be a little strange.

Even so, Xiang Xuehai could not give up because of that reason. None of them was Jiang Liushi’s girlfriend, so they all had the right to compete. When Xiang Xuehai walked in front of the grill, she became quite confused. Before doomsday, she had been a famous star, and her family had been rich. Therefore, she was similar with Ran Xiyu, inexperienced in such ways of cooking. To be frank, she had never cooked before.

Although she was had never cooked until now, it was different as she would prepare food for her loved one. Generally, grilling was simpler than cooking. Unfortunately, it was not that easy for Xiang Xuehai as she burned a little the ingredients or didn’t grill them evenly. Only then did she realize that controlling the fire was no easy task.

At that, she remembered that the two girls had used their powers, and thus she decided to give it a try too. Xiang Xuehai gently waved her hands, but…the charcoal was blown, and a layer of black ash was raised immediately. All the ingredients were skewered black.

“Uh…” Xiang Xuehai suddenly felt embarrassed as she had never expected such an outcome.

At that moment, she heard a sweet voice. “You should do like this.” Ran Xiyu was willing to teach Xiang Xuehai. Although they were competing for Jiang Liushi’s affection, they were also kind girls.

Moreover, if they competed with each other, it would be harder for Jiang Liushi to decide. After some time, Xiang Xuehai also gave Jiang Liushi a plate with food to taste.

Jiang Liushi was surrounded by everyone, talking and laughing. It was rare for Jiang Liushi to have the chance to feel so relaxed and enjoy the time they spent together. As a result, Jiang Liushi temporarily pushed all the matters weighing on his mind aside and enjoyed the moment.

On the other side, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun were grilling with their jealous faces.

“Compared to Brother Jiang, we have it hard.”

“Yeah… I really admire Brother Jiang. Don’t say any more. Let’s cherish this moment.”

After drinking and eating, night came…

Although the villa had plenty of rooms, most of them wanted to stay inside Jiang Liushi’s tour bus. In the end, other than Zhang Hai, Sun Ku and Luo Jiafeng, everyone else rested in the tour bus. The tour bus had only two bedrooms, so Jiang Liushi had to sleep in the living room. Of course, the current living room was more luxurious and spacious now.

Jiang Liushi laid comfortably in his soft sofa. Because of the daytime affair, he was unable to sleep, turning restlessly on the sofa. He was thinking about the three girls in succession, as well as Xiang Xuehai’s last words, “…you…can…see for yourself.”

Jiang Liushi felt really excited…

In one of the bedrooms were Ran Xiyu, Li Yuxin, and Jiang Zhuying. The latter, called herself an immortal girl, as she slept restlessly at night, always watching cartoons and movies. However, today, she was perversely not holding her iPad, but instead, she was sticking her little head out of bed, watching Ran Xiyu and Li Yuxin. The two girls were lying quietly with their delicate faces.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhuying shouted, “Don’t pretend to be asleep. We are all paranormals, so don’t try to fool each other. In my opinion, you should go to make love with my brother… tonight. Come on! It’s a good chance. You will both be successful.”

Upon hearing the bold statement, the two girls could no longer pretend to be asleep. Their faces flashed red, and they covered them between their pillows.

“Zhuying, what are you talking about!? The anime you’re watching daily seem to have deteriorated your brain!” exclaimed Li Yuxin.

“You’re killing me! You saw it today! My brother is as dull as a piece of wood in the when it comes to matters of the heart. If you don’t take the initiative, Xiang Xuehai may take him from you. Then, it will be too late for tears. My brother has drunk wine, so this is a good chance for you to sneak into his bed. Everyone knows that it’s easier to get laid after drinking wine,” said Jiang Zhuying.

“As long as you sleep with my brother, he will certainly take responsibility. Are you not enticed? I can also have multiple sisters-in-law,” added Jiang Zhuying.

For a while, Ran Xiyu and Li Yuxin just looked at each other without saying anything. They were rendered speechless. Jiang Zhuying’s words were too bold. Although they didn’t have enough experience in that aspect, both of them were thinking about it…

“I’m tired…” Ran Xiyu closed her eyes and covered her head with the blanket.

Unexpectedly, Li Yuxin didn’t, and she suddenly stood up.

“Woo! Sister Yuxin, you finally made your mind!” exclaimed Jiang Zhuying.

“Keep dreaming!” Li Yuxin looked at Jiang Zhuying and stormed out of the room.

Ran Xiyu was stunned and wondered whether she was too shy. At the same time, she felt a little regretful. Although she hoped that Li Yuxin and Jiang Liushi would get together, she would also feel sad if it were to happen.

Surprisingly, Ling, who was wearing cotton pajamas with carton prints and was clearly sleepy, entered the bedroom. She stood in front of the door in total confusion.

Upon seeing her, Jiang Zhuying asked, “What happened?”

Ling shook her head and answered, “I also don’t know. Yuxin told me she couldn’t sleep in her bed, so she asked to change beds with me.”

Ling did not care about her sleeping accommodation, so she walked straight Li Yuxin’s bed, lifted the blanket, and lied on the bed. After a few seconds, she fell asleep.

“Really?” whispered Jiang Zhuying.

Li Yuxin had been sleeping in that bed for some time now, so how could Jiang Zhuying guess what she was really thinking? Uncomfortable in her own bed? Impossible!

Jiang Zhuying immediately understood that Li Yuxin wanted to stay with Xiang Xuehai to supervise her. In that way, Xiang Xuehai would be unable to sneak out in the middle of the night to sleep with Jiang Liushi. It was possible that that was Xiang Xuehai’s intention, but Li Yuxin’s approach was quite cruel!

It was one of the rare times that Jiang Zhuying was rendered speechless. Li Yuxin had cut down all possibilities for her brother to get laid. Jiang Zhuying felt that her brother was unlucky.

Ran Xiyu secretly laughed in her bed. She thought that Li Yuxin’s idea was really quite good. Although Ran Xiyu liked Jiang Liushi very much, she didn’t dare to make love with Jiang Liushi like Jiang Zhuying had blatantly suggested.

Currently, in the other bedroom, Xiang Xuehai and Li Yuxin were staring at each other.

“Are you not sleepy?”

“I’m as much as you are.”

The two women knew what the respected parties were thinking. They stared at each other for some time, and then they closed their eyes.

“Good night.”

“Well, good night.”
