After the meal, Cang Wuya was as diligent as ever and cleaned up the dishes on the table one by one. His movements were quick and orderly. In short, it was just a matter of a little magic.

Afterwards, the originally empty table was placed with steaming tea and a variety of exquisite desserts.

Lu Xi picked up a piece of chestnut cake and took a light bite. It melted in her mouth, sweet and soft. It was simply the taste of happiness.

She couldn't help but sigh that in the past she had to prepare things by herself, but now she only had to sit leisurely and wait for others to serve her.

Comrade Cang Wuya, you are so thoughtful!

Lu Xi drank tea while browsing the news of the past few days.

Her eyes were fixed on two quite popular official news. Looking at the names of the things on them, these announcements seemed to be inextricably linked to their base.

I heard the system mention it some time ago. It was a project in their base. I didn’t expect it to produce results so soon. It’s cause for celebration.

Although Lu Xi herself did not participate in it, as the minister of the base, she also felt honored.

When I was happy, I put a few more desserts on my plate. The delicious food tasted even better when paired with the good news.

Next to Lu Xi, Void Whale and Xiao Cang were huddled together, concentrating on watching cartoons on their tablets.

The painting style on the screen was full of childishness, and childlike music also floated out from the tablet. Lu Xi couldn't tell which cartoon it was from the dialogue between the characters.

It seems that I haven't paid attention to it for too long. My memory only stays on Pleasant Goat and Big Bear and Little Bear. I don't even know what kids like to watch nowadays.

However, Lu Xi didn't pay too much attention to it. Based on the conversation with Cang Wuya at the dinner table just now, she knew that because the two of them had performed well during this period, they had achieved the freedom of the cartoon.

Let the two kids watch whatever they want. After all, there are people watching over them, so they won’t go too far.

Lu Xi finished the last sip of tea in her cup and turned off the screen of her mobile phone. When she looked up, her eyes happened to fall on Cang Wuya who was sitting opposite her.

He was sitting there in a very proper manner, holding a book in his hand. The four big words on the cover of the book surprised Lu Xi.

"A Hundred Years of Solitude"

She really didn't expect that Cang Wuya had already started reading foreign classics. This discovery gave her a different feeling in her heart.

This feeling is subtle and complex, as if it is a cultural encounter across time and space - the collision of ancient immortal civilization and distant Western culture.

As if he had noticed Lu Xi's slightly inquiring gaze, Cang Wuya slowly raised his head and looked at her, his eyes still gentle.

Seeing this, Lu Xi shook her head slightly and intentionally avoided making eye contact with him.

At this moment, she suddenly felt an inexplicable emotion in her heart.

I should improve my self-cultivation. At the very least, I should take out the list of books that I have collected for a long time and read them instead of letting them sleep in my favorites.

Such thoughts made Lu Xi's heart filled with excitement. The bookshelf in her study was finally no longer just a decoration.

"Ring~" A crisp bell suddenly rang.

Lu Xi looked down at the cat toy stick that had been poked in front of her, and couldn't help but shift her gaze to the system, and asked in confusion: "What?"

Her original ambitions had not yet been carried out before they were interrupted by the sudden cheerful ringing of the ringtone.

The system had long noticed that its host had been in a daze, so it wanted her to move to another place, so it suggested: "Let's go out for a walk. The weather is nice today, and these little guys haven't been out to play for two days."

As the system spoke, it gently shook the cat toy in its hand, attracting expectant glances from the surrounding kittens.

Lu Xi followed the system's line of sight and saw that a few kittens had quietly gathered around her at some point, staring at her with their big watery eyes, as if silently begging her.

Her heart softened and she nodded, agreeing to the proposal.

Although the training in the tower made her feel as if she was in an uninhabited scenic area and experienced a different kind of journey, it was just an illusion after all, and she also experienced a bloody incident.

I have been stuck at home for a long time and I really need to go out, breathe some fresh air and meet some people.
