Chapter 763: Embracing Xueman Mengyao

As soon as the driver parked the car in front of Zhou's villa, Zhou Mengyao slowly opened her bright eyes. She rubbed Lin Lang's body gently, and then stretched comfortably.

Lin Lang looked at Zhou Mengyao, who had regained her energy and was radiant again, with tenderness in his eyes. He first told the driver to get out of the car.

After the driver got out of the car, Lin Lang kissed Zhou Mengyao on the forehead and said softly, "Wife, you slept so soundly just now, didn't you have a sweet dream?"

Zhou Mengyao was very excited. She shook Lin Lang's arm with both hands and said in surprise: "Husband, you may not believe it when I tell you, but my father actually came to me in a dream!"

Lin Lang pretended to be surprised and raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What dream did Master give you?"

Zhou Mengyao's eyes widened, and she said in an exaggerated manner: "After my father died, he went to heaven and became a guardian angel. He flapped his huge wings and descended from the sky with golden light."

"My father told me that he was living a good life in heaven. It is a bright and holy place with no pain, only happiness."

Seeing the excited tears in Zhou Mengyao's eyes, Lin Lang held her little hand which had regained its warmth and said, "That's great. Master did so much charity work and donated so much money during his lifetime. It's only natural that he should go to heaven."

"Now that you know that Master has gone to heaven and become a guardian angel after his death, are you not so sad now?"

Zhou Mengyao cried with joy and nodded vigorously: "Yes, I was worried every day before that my dad would be in pain in the other world after he passed away, which made me sad and worried. Now that I know he is doing well in heaven, I feel much more at ease."

Lin Lang touched Zhou Mengyao's head and said with a smile: "I feel much more relieved to hear from you that Master has gone to heaven. Don't be too sad."

"Yeah." Zhou Mengyao nodded with tears in her eyes and a smile.

Lin Lang gently wiped away the tears from Zhou Mengyao's eyes with his fingertips and comforted her, "People are born to suffer until death. Master has escaped from this rotten world and transcended the mundane world to enter a paradise that is not troubled by negative desires. From now on, he will enjoy happiness without worries in a bright and holy place. This is not a bad thing."

After hearing Lin Lang's words, the naive Zhou Mengyao became even more convinced that her deceased father had gone to heaven. She came out of her sadness and no longer felt the heart-wrenching pain when she thought of her deceased father again.

"Honey, let me use your phone. I want to call my mom and tell her that my dad has visited me in my dreams and is in heaven."

Lin Lang declined, "No, Master's Wife is a cardiac surgeon and a staunch atheist. She doesn't even believe in Chinese medicine, let alone Master going to heaven."

After hearing this, Zhou Mengyao said weakly: "I was thinking of telling my mother this good news so that she can feel better."

Lin Lang gently hugged Zhou Mengyao and told her, "Your master appeared in your dream and went to heaven after his death. Just keep it to yourself and don't spread it to others."

Zhou Mengyao was puzzled and asked: "Why?"

Lin Lang lied with a serious expression: "Angels who secretly come to earth will be punished. So the fact that Master came to you in your dream as an angel should only be known to you and me. Don't let anyone else know."

Zhou Mengyao suddenly realized, "Oh, I know, husband. I will keep this secret for Dad."

Lin Lang pinched Zhou Mengyao's tear-stained face and said lovingly, "My lovely silly wife, let's get out of the car and go into the house to eat. You haven't even had breakfast yet, and I can hear your stomach growling."

Zhou Mengyao touched her hungry stomach and smiled playfully: "Now that I know my dad has gone to heaven after his death, I have an appetite to eat."

Lin Lang said jokingly: "Wife, you are indeed a snake. You can even spit out your tongue."

Zhou Mengyao kissed Lin Lang on the side of his face and forced a smile on her face: "Hubby, let's eat. Don't keep Xue Man waiting."

"Okay." Lin Lang opened the car door and got out first. He stood beside the door and gentlemanly put one hand on the top of the door frame to prevent Zhou Mengyao from accidentally hitting her head when getting out of the car.

After Zhou Mengyao got out of the car, she closed the door casually, then took Lin Lang's arm and slowly walked into the courtyard of Zhou's house.

"Miss, you and Mr. Lin are back!" Aunt Mei, the maid, took out slippers from the shoe cabinet for Zhou Mengyao and Lin Lang.

Zhou Mengyao responded, and then asked, "Where's Xueman?"

Aunt Mei replied, "Miss Mu is cooking for you and Mr. Lin. She has been busy in the kitchen since she arrived."

Zhou Mengyao felt warm at heart after hearing this, and after changing into slippers, she said, "I'll go to the kitchen to see her now."

"Miss, the bath water has been prepared for you in advance. You should take a hot bath to relieve your fatigue, change out of mourning clothes, and then go to the kitchen to see Miss Mu."

After hearing this, Zhou Mengyao glanced at Lin Lang and asked for his advice.

After changing into slippers, Lin Lang replied, "Aunt Mei is right. You just came back from a funeral and got caught in the rain. You should take a shower and change clothes first."

Zhou Mengyao replied, "Okay, then go to the kitchen first to see Xueman and see if there is anything she can help with."

"Okay." Lin Lang walked towards the kitchen of Zhou's house.

Zhou Mengyao took Aunt Mei's arm and said coquettishly, "I want you to take a bath with me like when we were little."

"Okay." Aunt Mei accompanied Zhou Mengyao and slowly walked up the spiral staircase and walked towards Zhou Mengyao's room on the second floor.

It is worth mentioning that the maid Aunt Mei watched Zhou Mengyao grow up and has deep feelings for her. Seeing that her condition has improved a lot, she can't help but feel very relieved.

Lin Lang followed the familiar path and soon arrived at the spacious and bright kitchen of Zhou's house.

As soon as you step into the kitchen, the rich aroma of food hits your nose.

Mu Xuelan looked like a virtuous young wife, wearing a white apron that perfectly outlined her slender waist.

She was standing in front of the stove with full concentration, gently stirring the thick soup in the pot with the spoon in her hand. Her eyes were full of seriousness and carefulness, and every movement was elegant and skillful.

When the chefs in the kitchen of Zhou's residence saw Lin Lang, they all stopped what they were doing, bowed in unison, and greeted him respectfully: "Hello, Mr. Lin!"

Lin Lang walked into the kitchen with steady steps and nodded slightly in response to everyone's greetings.

Mu Xueman looked back upon hearing the voice and saw Lin Lang, who looked tired but still had a gentle smile on his face. She immediately raised a sweet smile and greeted him charmingly, "You and Mengyao are back."

Lin Lang walked up and said, "Well, Mengyao went to take a shower and change clothes. I'll come to the kitchen to see if you need any help."

As he spoke, Lin Lang looked around at the various ingredients and kitchen utensils placed in the kitchen, looking eager to try.

A trace of heartache flashed across Mu Xuelan's eyes. She quickly put down the soup spoon in her hand, waved her hand gently, and declined politely: "No, there is no place for you to help here. You just came back from the funeral and you must be very tired. Go and have a rest."

"Or you can go take a shower, change clothes, and then have dinner." As she said this, Mu Xuelan reached out and gently patted Lin Lang's shoulder, as if she wanted to convey her concern to him.

Lin Lang smiled gently after hearing this and asked again: "You really don't need my help?"

Mu Xueman's eyes were full of tenderness, and she replied, "Really, that's not necessary. Look, there are so many chefs in the Zhou's kitchen, and they are all masters. There's no need for you to help me in the kitchen. Go out quickly and don't tire yourself out."

Seeing that Mu Xueman insisted, Lin Lang could not force her any further, so he nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, then I'll go take a shower and change my clothes."

Before turning around, he secretly threw a coquettish glance at Mu Xuelan, with a hint of playfulness and intimacy in his eyes.

Mu Xuelan's cheeks flushed slightly. She glared at him gently, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

Lin Lang then turned around contentedly and left the kitchen with brisk steps, leaving Mu Xuelan standing there with a smile on her face, continuing to busy herself with preparing the dishes in her hands.

Lin Lang took a comfortable shower in the room, and the hot water washed away all his fatigue.

Lin Lang changed into a set of casual and comfortable home clothes. His hair was still a little damp, and he looked refreshed and casual.

When he passed by his master Zhou Zhongdang's study, his heart skipped a beat and the image of his master writing calligraphy in the study could still be seen in his mind.

"My dear disciple, come and play chess with the master..."

The voice of Master Zhou Zhongdang seems to still ring in my ears, but his voice, appearance and smile have become a memory.

Lin Lang couldn't help but walk into his master's study. On the display cabinet in the study, he saw the rhino horn cup that he had once sold to the Treasure Pavilion at a bargain price. Now it was back in his hands after going around in circles.

Lin Lang took a rhino horn cup from the display case, stroking it and playing with it in his hands. He had no intention of inheriting the Zhou family's tens of billions of wealth, but everything was developing in the direction of "eating the whole family".

The "eating up the whole family" here refers to having no son to inherit the family business, and the family property is finally inherited by the son-in-law.

It turns out that everything has a traceable path. When Lin Lang sold the pair of rhino horn cups, which he had picked up at a bargain price, to Zhou Zhongdang at the Treasure Pavilion, the gears of fate had already begun to turn quietly.

Don't think too much about everything. The more you think about it, the more terrifying it becomes.

Lin Lang had a bad premonition. He was worried that if the current time-travel effect continued to develop, his master's wife Zhuang Jingxue would probably die soon.

Because Lin Lang thought of Chu Yiren's father and brother who had died unexpectedly one after another, and Chu Yiren inherited all the family business of the Chu family. By marrying Chu Yiren, he could maximize his benefits.

The father and brother of the concubine Zhao Lanshan also died. Zhao Lanshan succeeded as the chairman of Taicheng Group and inherited all the family business of the Zhao family. Lin Lang still maximized the benefits.

Now that Master Zhou Zhongdang has passed away unexpectedly, the next person to hinder Lin Lang's maximization of interests will be Master's wife Zhuang Jingxue.

Thinking of this, Lin Lang couldn't help but take a breath and put the rhino horn cup in his hand back into the display case.

After leaving his master Zhou Zhongdang's study, Lin Lang, with mixed feelings, walked downstairs with heavy steps and slowly walked towards the restaurant in Zhou's villa.

Before entering the restaurant, Lin Lang used his [Super Hearing] skill to hear Zhou Mengyao say in the restaurant: "Xue Man, can you sleep with Lin Lang tonight?"

Mu Xueman was surprised and asked, "Why? Your father just passed away and you are in a bad mood. You need Lin Lang's company. Why do you want me to sleep with him?"

Unexpectedly, Zhou Mengyao replied, "Lin Lang has been busy with my father's funeral these days. He has done his best and taken care of everything. He has been with me all the time for the past three days."

"He was also sad about the unexpected death of his master and needed gentle companionship and comfort."

"It just so happens that I am having my period and it is inconvenient for me. I hope you can give Lin Lang some gentle comfort on my behalf, so that he can be happier and temporarily forget the pain of losing his teacher."

After hearing this, Mu Xueman was slightly startled. She put the last main dish in her hand on the table and replied, "Mengyao, there is no need to do this, right?"

Zhou Mengyao shook Mu Xueman's arm and said in a soft and coquettish voice, "Hey, Xueman, just promise me, please accompany Lin Lang tonight, okay?"
