Chapter 1305: Chapter 1210: A Woman’s Heart-to-Heart (Combined)_2
After sorting this out, Su Ran finally showed a smile again, cradling Little Black in his arms and stroking its sleek and shiny fur.
"Meow?"
A puzzled look appeared in Little Black’s big eyes; it didn’t quite understand what Su Ran was saying.
"Don’t play dumb with me! But hey, your master is rich now, so Nutrient Solution is supplied in abundance, guaranteed to keep you full!"
Su Ran laughed heartily. Now with a net worth in the millions, these Nutrient Solutions were mere pocket change to him.
"Little Ran, did you get off the game? Dinner is covered in the pot, go serve yourself—I’ve got some things to take care of."
Su Ran’s mother’s voice was as penetrating as ever—stronger than a WIFI signal through walls. But that wasn’t the point. A hint of suspicion arose in Su Ran’s mind. Where could his mom be going this late? It had never happened before. How strange!
"Mom, don’t rush, I have something to ask you!"
To get an answer to his question, Su Ran called out immediately. Unfortunately, silence was all that responded, and by the time he got to the living room, his mother was already gone.
There was nothing to be done. His lung capacity was still lacking, nowhere near his mother’s penetrative power. He would have to wait till she got home to ask.
Su Ran wasn’t too worried about the situation. From his rough analysis, the fact that his mother had informed him in advance, without a hint of urgency in her voice, indicated that things were not as bad as he had imagined.
Maybe she went to meet an online friend... Pah, what am I even thinking?
Su Ran felt his imagination was running wild, even dragging his mother into it!
Just then, the doorbell rang inappropriately, interrupting Su Ran’s thoughts. His gaze instinctively drifted toward the door.
"Mom, really, you rush out so hastily and even forget your keys—now you can’t even get back home."
Su Ran complained as he walked toward the door, figuring the answer would reveal itself as soon as his mother returned. No need for idle speculation, a waste of brain cells!
The door opened.
Li Wan’er’s stunningly beautiful face appeared in front of Su Ran, causing him to startle and swallow the words he had been about to say.
"Little Brother Su, what, not happy to see your sister?"
Li Wan’er wrapped her red coat tighter around herself, feigning annoyance at Su Ran. "It’s so cold, I really don’t want to catch a cold. Aren’t you going to let me in?"
"How could that be? Wan’er, you’re always a distinguished guest. Please, come in!"
Su Ran quickly stepped aside to welcome Li Wan’er into his home. He couldn’t help but smile wryly, "Wan’er, why do you always come over at night? Aren’t you afraid of the neighbors gossiping?"
"They wouldn’t dare!"
Li Wan’er put her hands on her hips, posing fiercely only to end up laughing at her own gesture, giggling uncontrollably. When the laughter subsided, she said with annoyance, "I have to play games during the day, how could I have time to see you then? And even if I did come over, would you have time for me?"
Well, she had a point—clear and simple, leaving Su Ran somewhat without a comeback.
"Hey, Little Brother Su, I could hear you calling for your mom from a distance earlier. Did she go out?"
"Yeah, maybe she went for a night jog or something, I don’t really know where she went." freёnovelkiss.com
Su Ran scratched his head and made up an excuse on the spot. After all, as a son immersing himself in games, how could he keep track of his mother’s whereabouts?
"A night jog? How could that be possible! Most of this area has been demolished; it’s all just piles of stones and dirt, inconvenient to walk on even during the day, and there’s not a single street light at night. How could your mom go for a night jog?"
Li Wan’er widened her eyes in surprise, clearly disbelieving, then, remembering Su Ran’s frail health, she spoke with a tone of sympathy, "Little Brother Su, how long has it been since you last left? You don’t even know what it’s like outside anymore, sigh."
"Don’t talk like that, as if I’m about to die or something. Don’t curse me like that!"
Su Ran pointed to a chair against the wall, "Wan’er, you take a seat first, I’m going to serve the food. I haven’t eaten yet and I’m starving. Oh, by the way, have you eaten yet?"
"It’s so late and you haven’t had your meal yet; your eating habits are too irregular. It’s not good for your health at all!"
Li Wan’er hurried a few steps, gesturing to Su Ran, "Just wait there, I’ll help you bring out the food!"
"Wan’er, I feel bad for this, but thanks!"
Su Ran took a seat on the chair, not bothering with formalities. He knew that doing this work single-handedly was a bit troublesome, and any further politeness would feel insincere.
After dinner.
"Wan’er, you didn’t come over just to serve me food, right? Whatever it is, just say it. If I can help, you won’t hear a word of objection!"
Seeing Wan’er hesitating to speak, Su Ran couldn’t help laughing, drumming his fingers on the tabletop, waiting for her to divulge what was on her mind.
"You little rascal, what’s running through that mind of yours?"
Li Wan’er rolled her eyes at Su Ran’s all-seeing look, "I was just going to ask you about that gold Undead Pet Egg I mentioned before, did you go for the auction?"
"You know as well as I do; my character is an Undead Skeleton. If I could participate in the auction, that would really mess things up! Wan’er, just say what you mean. But before you do, please filter it through your brain first, so we don’t end up having an awkward conversation again. It’s uncomfortable."
