Seeing the expressions on their faces, Lu Chenxing quickly waved his hand, "That's not what I meant; I was just worried about your health. As long as you're both fine, that's all that matters."
Hearing this, both of them simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Zhi quietly asked, "Daddy, can I still eat a little more?"
"Of course you can, as long as Xiao Zhi doesn't feel uncomfortable!" Lu Chenxing said gently, stroking his daughter's head.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi's face immediately broke into a smile. Since her daddy wasn't angry, she also felt relieved. "Then I still want to eat a tiny bit more."
Lu Chenxing nodded with a smile, while sighing inwardly. He wondered when Xiao Zhi would truly relax. Looking at her cautious eyes, Lu Chenxing truly felt heartbroken.
Yun Qiaoqiao, on the other hand, didn't have so many worries. After getting permission, she immediately picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
Seeing that both of them were still eating, Lu Chenxing roughly understood why they could eat so much. Yun Qiaoqiao was influenced by Altria, and Xiao Zhi was most likely due to her special physique.
"Boss, I'm back!" Guo Jiahao, seeing that no one had paid attention to him for a while, cleared his throat to indicate that he had been standing there for some time.
Hearing the sound, Lu Chenxing, who had been lost in thought, immediately turned his head. "Perfect, come and eat!"
Little Fatty, who had originally wanted to share the good news with Lu Chenxing, saw Long Qifeng sitting nearby and had to stop himself. He greeted Long Qifeng, then complimented Ningning and Xiao Zhi a few times, balancing his words well.
As if sensing something, Long Qifeng didn't stay long. After sitting for a while longer, he picked up Ningning and left.
After he left, Xiao Zhi and Yun Qiaoqiao also stopped eating. Looking at their still flat stomachs, Lu Chenxing wondered if their stomachs contained a mimetic black hole...
"Alright, since everything is ready, the plan will begin tomorrow." Lu Chenxing decided, "Sister Pingsha, tomorrow you'll take Brother Hu and the others to the Nufeng Guild to register for membership. Just follow the normal procedures."
"If they ask, you can tell them the truth about everything except our specific matters. To make people believe you, you need seven parts truth and three parts falsehood. Brother Hu, you're an old hand at this, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Hearing this, Wang Hu immediately patted his chest and said, "No problem, Guild Leader, rest assured!"
Seeing him say no problem, Yan Pingsha also nodded and said, "Then I'll take them over tomorrow."
"Mm, well then, everyone, go rest first. I'll take Xiao Zhi to wash up." Lu Chenxing stood up and announced. Everyone had no objections and left to their respective rooms to rest.
Guo Jiahao, however, didn't leave. After everyone else had gone, he quietly said to Lu Chenxing, "Boss, look!"
Saying this, he excitedly released a wisp of flame, imbued with a weak but complete rule. This made Lu Chenxing slightly stunned. Having top-tier light and fire rules himself, he could tell at a glance that this rule was only a mid-to-upper-tier rule, seemingly born from the combination of mid-tier light and fire attributes.
It contained traces of the fire attribute "High Temperature" and the light attribute "Strong Light."
This made Lu Chenxing's pupils constrict slightly. Little Fatty's genius might exceed his imagination!
"How is it, Boss? I didn't let you down, did I?" Guo Jiahao said proudly.
Hearing this, Lu Chenxing patted his shoulder and said seriously, "You can comprehend a trace of complete rule power before reaching Tier 2; you're stronger than me!"
Seeing Lu Chenxing's serious expression, Guo Jiahao felt a little embarrassed. Finally, he scratched his head and said, "Not really, Boss is still stronger than me. If you hadn't helped me, I wouldn't have truly comprehended the rule."
"Alright, don't be modest. This is your talent; don't be shy." Lu Chenxing said with a smile, holding Xiao Zhi, "Tell your mom about this; she should be very happy."
After speaking, Lu Chenxing carried Xiao Zhi back to their room. He had to help the little girl brush her teeth and wash her face, then put her to bed, otherwise, she might wake up in the middle of the night crying and looking for her daddy.
・・・・・・
A moment later, Guo Jiahao returned to his small room and excitedly lay on his bed, talking to his mother. When he said that he had already comprehended a rule and that his strength had reached the peak of Tier 1, a clear look of surprise appeared on Yu Ziyue's face.
A moment later, she asked excitedly, "Are you serious?? You really comprehended a rule?"
"Of course! Could this be fake?" Guo Jiahao said with a grin, "Today, Big Brother said he had a new understanding of rules and then gave me another imprint. The previous imprint had already given me some ideas about rules, and this time I just followed my instincts, and I didn't expect to actually comprehend one!"
"Ah?!" Yu Ziyue was a little surprised, "This Big Brother of yours is really worth recognizing!"
But at the same time, she also realized that her son's talent seemed a bit too good. To be able to comprehend a rule with just two imprints, it seemed that more people were needed to guard him in secret.
As a mother, her son's success naturally filled her with excitement at this moment, but she also knew that her son had met a benefactor in his life.
Originally, she had just handed Guo Jiahao over to Lu Chenxing, wanting him to help look after the child. But she never expected that Little Fatty would now be like a transformed person. Not only did he awaken early, but he also had extraordinary talent in card-making, and now he was showing unparalleled talent in cultivation!
He even comprehended a rule at Tier 1! Although this rule was still very weak and not high in rank, and not very practical for now, it was a pass to Tier 6! How many people had fallen at this step, being rejected at the gates of Tier 6!
Before, when she heard that Lu Chenxing had comprehended a rule at Tier 2, she felt a certain degree of envy. Allowing Guo Jiahao to interact with him was also based on the idea that "one who is near vermilion gets stained red, and one who is near ink gets stained black," hoping that her son might also awaken a rule earlier under the influence.
But she only thought about it; she never expected Lu Chenxing to help so wholeheartedly, nor did she expect her chubby son to actually comprehend a rule!
After thinking for a moment, Yu Ziyue said to Guo Jiahao, "Alright, I'll go over personally tomorrow morning and bring some thank-you gifts for Little Lu. That's all for now; I'll hang up first and head over now."
With that, Yu Ziyue's call ended. Guo Jiahao didn't mind; after all, his mom was always so impulsive. In any case, whatever his mom brought would definitely be good stuff, as a meeting gift and a thank-you gift were not on the same level. Anyway, he didn't need to worry about it.
Thinking this, in his excitement, he simply decided not to sleep. He rolled over to the table, took out original cards and blank cards from his storage ring, and continued making cards.
Meanwhile, Old Butler, in a certain part of the manor, nodded repeatedly after receiving a call from the Madam: "Yes, Madam, I will definitely protect the young master's safety! Please rest assured!"
After hanging up the phone, Steward Cui looked towards Guo Jiahao's room, and a kind smile appeared on his stern and serious face.
