Chapter 191

191 Luo Cheng’s Versailles

The dishes arrived and everyone busied themselves again.

Because they were busy cooking, no one bothered with Ling Heng.

Seeing that Luo Cheng was also peeling garlic sprouts with his sleeves rolled up, Ling Heng squatted beside Luo Cheng and looked at him curiously.

!!

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Luo Cheng asked directly.

Ling Heng stared at Luo Cheng for a while before saying, “Seventh Brother, you seem to have changed a lot! In the past, you always stood there quietly alone. No matter what others said or did, you always looked aloof and didn’t get along with them at all. But look at you now. You actually know how to smile. You’re actually willing to participate in these things and work with the people around you! These are things you’ve never experienced before!”

When Luo Cheng heard this, he looked at Ling Heng.

“Third Brother, the reason I was like that in the past was because no one really cared about me! They all care about me from the bottom of their hearts and treat me as family! But at that time, you didn’t!”

Ling Heng was stunned when he heard Luo Cheng’s words.

Because what Luo Cheng said was true!

Even he had only completely acknowledged Luo Cheng as his brother after Luo Cheng revealed his talent after he became an adult.

Before this, he had really never cared about Luo Cheng.

Thinking of this, Ling Heng felt a little ashamed.

“I’m sorry. At that time, I didn’t know any of this!”

Luo Cheng knew what Ling Heng meant and said softly, “I know, so I’ve never blamed you, nor have I ever asked for affection from you!”

When Ling Heng heard Luo Cheng’s words, he suddenly thought of something.

“Is that why you’d rather be a civilian than anything else?”

“That’s right. I don’t care about things that you want to fight over. You gave up on me from the beginning. Now, don’t blame me for ignoring our brotherhood and giving up on you! Third Brother, don’t come again in the future! Don’t look for me if anything happens. If you really treat me like your seventh brother, it’s best if you don’t disturb me!” Luo Cheng said calmly.

These words made Ling Heng a little uncomfortable.

In the past, he didn’t understand, but now that he was older, he could tell good from bad.

His seventh brother had never been valued since he was young. He had never gotten anything, which was why he was so cold.

Ling Heng thought for a moment and said, “Alright, I won’t disturb you in the future! Let me have a good meal with you today!”

“Alright! My wife cooked for you!” Luo Cheng replied with a smile.

Soon, a large table of food was ready.

Luo Cheng and Ling Heng sat at a table alone, while the others sat at a table in the shop.

The five big fish were made into boiled fish by Li Xiaoran.

It had to be said that when a large basin of boiled fish was placed on the table and boiling oil was poured on it, it sizzled and immediately whetted everyone’s appetite.

The flesh of the carp was smooth and tender, oily but not greasy.

The large pot of chili was dazzling. It was spicy but not dry, numbing but not bitter.

In addition, the asparagus tips that were placed below tasted crispy, juicy, and delicious. It made one want to eat them one after another.

This was the first time Ling Heng had eaten such a tasty boiled fish. As he ate, he wiped his sweat with a handkerchief and kept praising, “What’s this dish called? It tastes so good! In the past, I used to think that the dishes in Sichuan weren’t very tasty, but now, I think I was wrong! This is clearly very delicious!”

Luo Cheng glanced at him when he heard his third brother’s words.

“This is because my wife is good at cooking! No matter what ingredient it is, as long as it’s in my wife’s hands, it can be made into delicious food. If you pick some wild vegetables by the roadside, they can also become delicious food after being cooked by my wife!”

When Ling Heng heard this, he suddenly gritted his teeth in hatred.

He really wanted to capture his seventh brother and beat him up.

However, Ling Heng quickly gave up on this idea.

The reason was simple. He couldn’t beat him!

Therefore, Ling Heng turned his envy and jealousy into appetite and ate the boiled fish with all his might.

Not to mention Ling Heng, even Luo Cheng liked this boiled fish very much.

The spicy and fragrant taste made him unable to stop eating.

In the past, Luo Cheng didn’t eat spicy food much. Ever since Li Xiaoran brought her family over, Luo Cheng felt that he was becoming more and more like someone born in Sichuan.

These numb and spicy things were becoming more and more to his liking.

The meal gradually came to an end while the two brothers focused on eating.

Finally, Ling Heng, who had eaten his fill, sat on the chair and took a breather as he said, “Seventh Brother, you should know that many things can’t be done just because you want them to. I can stop forcing you, but what about the others? If you really want to live a peaceful life, you have to be prepared. Some people can’t wait to get rid of you!”

When Luo Cheng heard his third brother’s words, he smiled and toasted Ling Heng with tea.

“Don’t worry, Third Brother. Now that I have to protect my family, I naturally won’t let anyone take advantage of me!”

There were some things that could only be implied.

Ling Heng didn’t say anything else and left with Gao Jian.

On the way back, Gao Jian was called by Ling Heng to sit in the carriage because of his injured arm.

“What do you think is right and wrong?” Ling Heng suddenly said.

Gao Jian froze for a moment, then replied.

“Young Master, I’m a boor. I don’t understand what you’re talking about, so I can only suggest it based on my impression of you. Your brother is not to be trifled with. You guys can’t become enemies!”

Gao Jian’s words stunned Ling Heng for a moment, then he nodded.

“That’s right, Gao Jian, you’re right! Although you don’t know the situation well, it’s precisely because you don’t know much that you won’t be troubled. Instead, you can see it more clearly! I’m looking forward to it now. I wonder what will happen to those who want to suppress him when they encounter him?”

At this point, Ling Heng laughed.

“In troubled times, many people think that this is an opportunity. Little do they know that this is also a calamity. I hope that someone can stand up and end all this chaos with a crushing force to return peace to the world. Only then can my ambitions be displayed and the empire can be peaceful!”

When Gao Jian heard his young master’s words, a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

Would such a prosperous dynasty really come?
