Chapter 86 Unprepared
Chapter 86 Unprepared
The group took out their bedding and made their beds. With Lin Churan's help, Lu Jinyan also made her own bed and then made up the beds in Liu Xu's room. Judging from the situation, the snow was unlikely to stop today, so they would have to spend the night here.
Lin Churan had been alone here for a long time when guests suddenly arrived, making the house much more lively. She was quite happy and wanted to go to the kitchen to help prepare some food, but Lu Jinyan stopped her.
Chu Chu led Liu Xu and the others to boil some hot water so that everyone could wash up properly. After everyone had washed up and changed their clothes, it was almost noon, so Chu Chu took Liu Xu and Liu Qing to the kitchen to get busy.
Their storage bags were full of food, so they didn't use the food Lin Churan had brought back. The group busied themselves preparing several dishes, leaving Lin Churan speechless with amazement.
She was initially worried that the food she bought wouldn't be enough for so many people, but it turned out they had brought their own...
She was originally a cultivator and didn't have much need for food, only eating a little occasionally. So she didn't buy too much this time when she went down the mountain, thinking that this would be enough for her to eat until after the New Year.
She had just led everyone back when she suddenly remembered that there was enough food for her to eat until after the New Year, but now that there were a few more people, it probably wouldn't last long. The snow probably wouldn't stop anytime soon, and she was still wondering whether she should go down the mountain to buy some more.
When she saw Chu Chu and the others skillfully taking out various ingredients from their storage bags, she realized that she had been overthinking things. How could they not prepare food when they were traveling?
Chu Chu personally cooked five dishes and a soup, partly to thank Lin Chu Ran for taking them in, and partly because they were really hungry. They had only eaten a few steamed buns in the morning, and their stomachs were rumbling.
When the food was served, Lin Churan was stunned. She had never heard of these dishes or their names before, and the tempting aroma made her mouth water. She had traveled all over the years and had never seen these dishes before.
Lu Jinyan didn't dawdle. Seeing that the food was ready, she quickly called everyone to eat. With the wind and snow outside, having a hot meal was simply the best thing ever.
Lin Churan was initially quite reserved, but after taking a bite, she stopped being reserved and ate heartily, praising, "Chu Chu's cooking skills are really amazing. I've never eaten such delicious food in my life."
"Thank you for the compliment, Sister Churan. I'm glad you like it, Sister Churan. Please eat more. This dish is quite delicious, and this..." Chu Chu blushed and kept putting food on Lin Churan's plate.
The happiest thing for her is when others praise her cooking.
After a happy and lively lunch, the group went about their own business, some taking a nap, others cultivating. Lu Jinyan, however, was the type who would get sleepy after a meal.
After lunch, she went back to her room to take a nap. Chu Chu was cultivating beside her. Lying on the bed, Lu Jinyan felt a little dazed. She felt like she had forgotten something, but she couldn't remember it.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, Lu Jinyan suddenly opened her eyes and shouted, "Holy crap!" before sitting up straight in bed.
"Yanyan, what's wrong?" Chu Chu, who had been closing her eyes to cultivate, was startled by her sudden shout.
"Cough cough, no, it's nothing, it's nothing. You go and cultivate, I'm going to sleep for a while!" Lu Jinyan quickly waved her hand to indicate that she was fine.
Seeing that she lay back down and closed her eyes, Chu Chu didn't ask any more questions and closed her eyes to cultivate as well.
Lu Jinyan lay on the bed and waited for a while. When she heard no movement, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She cursed herself inwardly for being an idiot; how could she forget something so important?
She said she forgot something, right?
She forgot Lin Churan!
Lin Churan!
The female protagonist from the original story!
That innocent, naive female lead, that female lead surrounded by handsome men!
She knew it! The female lead is a white lotus, and Lin Churan is also a white lotus. Both of them are white lotuses. She thought it was just a coincidence, but it turns out they are clearly the same person!
She said that when she heard the female lead's name, she felt a little familiar with it. How could she not feel familiar with it?
But why is the female lead here? Could it be that she saved Mo Xuan and Ruo Han, causing the plot to change?
If she hadn't changed the plot, Lin Churan would probably have already been intimate with Ruohan by now, instead of being alone in this godforsaken place.
Lu Jinyan suddenly felt a little sorry for the female lead; she had made her perfectly miss out on the two male leads... Wait, isn't Ruohan right here? Was she delivering herself to the doorstep? Or was she walking into the lion's den?
If she found out that I had stolen away her two husbands, would she kill myself? No, no, she wasn't reborn or time-traveled, she shouldn't know about this.
But what if there's even a tiny bit of a chance that she's also a time traveler? If she is, and she happens to have read this book, wouldn't she know everything?
If she knew that she had caused her to miss out on two handsome husbands, would she kill herself?
Lu Jinyan's mind was a complete mess at that moment. One moment she was thinking, "The female lead is so amazing, with a whole bunch of handsome husbands. Her husband-taming skills must be pretty good. Should I go and learn them?"
Then she wondered if she should take advantage of the fact that everyone was resting and just run away, so as not to be caught by the female lead later. In short, her mind was a mess, and she tossed and turned in bed for a while. Finally, she drifted off to sleep and had a dream.
In her dream, Lin Churan held a sword to her neck, asking her why she had kidnapped her two husbands and why she had stolen their love. Lu Jinyan hurriedly tried to explain, but Lin Churan ignored her explanation and was about to slit her throat with the sword, which startled Lu Jinyan awake.
Lu Jinyan wiped the sweat from her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, it was just a dream.
She was alone in the room. Chu Chu was nowhere to be seen. It was already dark outside. Lu Jinyan quickly got up, dressed, and went out. As soon as she stepped out, she saw Lin Churan walking towards her with a smile.
Looking at Lin Churan's smiling face, Lu Jinyan felt the hairs on her body stand on end. Recalling the dream she had just had, she felt that Lin Churan had come to mess with her.
