When the two came out, the rain had already stopped, and a hint of dawn was appearing on the horizon. Who would've thought they'd been in the basement for half the night!

Seeing that Liu Zixuan's car was already stuffed with treasures, Zhou Madman was overjoyed. He kept saying he'd treat Liu Zixuan to a meal when they got back.

The air after the rain felt particularly fresh, and neither of them felt the least bit sleepy as they drove straight to the city.

...

Inside Treasure Hall, Zhou Madman looked at the treasure-filled office with an uncontainable smile. He knocked hard on the wall of the next room: "Little Nian, get up and make breakfast!"

Liu Zixuan, sitting to the side, scolded with displeasure: "You're such a cheapskate. With all these treasures, you should at least arrange a good meal at a restaurant."

"Young man, it's disgraceful to waste. Nowadays, those restaurants are really rip-off. Sixteen bucks for a plate of dumplings that only cost three or four to make. Rather than giving them money, it's better we make our own; it's safer to eat!" Zhou Madman replied earnestly.

Liu Zixuan rubbed his forehead: "What nonsense are you talking! Being so stingy, no wonder you're single now, and I hope you stay a bachelor forever!"

"How can you talk like that? Do you even know how many girls chase your old man?" Zhou Madman immediately disagreed!

"Oh, you guys are finally back!"

Zhou Nian rubbed her sleepy eyes and came out of the next room. Perhaps she was still a bit muddled, wearing only a very loose tank top, making her chest almost burst out, which made Liu Zixuan a bit mesmerized.

He couldn't help but grin: "Certainly a big-breasted girl!"

"Ah!"

Zhou Nian hastily covered up and ran back to the next room, coming out with a shirt on, and shyly glared at Liu Zixuan.

"Why are you shy, girl? Haven't you already had his child! There's nothing you can't let him see!" Zhou Madman appeared quite open-minded.

It seemed that in Zhou Madman's eyes, he was stingy with treasures but very generous with his daughter!

"Dad, what are you saying!" Zhou Nian coquettishly pouted, mumbling: "You guys wait, I'll go make breakfast."

"Wait, aren't you going to ask what I want to eat?" Zhou Madman shouted.

Zhou Nian turned around, ignoring Zhou Madman, and instead looked at Liu Zixuan: "You must have been caught in the rain last night, and stayed in the tomb for so long. How about I make some bone soup for you?"

"That would be perfect!" Liu Zixuan smiled.

"Hey, you only have eyes for your man, not your dad!" Zhou Madman was immediately displeased, but Zhou Nian simply turned and walked away, ignoring him completely!

Zhou Madman's mouth twitched a few times in exasperation, and he took a deep breath: "I raised you both as mom and dad this big, and in the end, you favor your man over your dad!"

"Puff!"

Liu Zixuan had just picked up water to drink, and hearing this, he spewed it out immediately. Isn't it supposed to be favor friends over interests? Since when did it become favor man over dad!

"Don't laugh; it's all your fault, you know. Talking about looks, you're not as handsome as me; talking about charisma, you're not as outstanding as me. How did you manage to win over my daughter!"

"Don't make me vomit out the food I had last night, okay? With your demeanor, handsome? And charisma, you should splash some water and look at yourself, with shoe-like face, toad lips, paired with thick arms and thin legs, just like that toad by the river!"

Liu Zixuan pursed his lips and squatted down to look at the treasures.

Zhou Madman was so angry he almost passed out, suddenly slapping the table: "Do you believe I'll beat you up!"

"Oh dear!"

Liu Zixuan grinned, randomly picked up two weapons from the pile, and threw one at Zhou Madman: "Come on, let me see what you've got to beat me up with!"

Zhou Madman gripped the knife in his hand tightly, glaring furiously at Liu Zixuan: "With this look, I'm already killing you a thousand times!"

"..." Liu Zixuan's forehead immediately sprouted a few black lines. What kind of a childish old man is this!

In a short while, Zhou Nian brought over a steaming bowl of bone soup and a pancake. Placing them in front of Liu Zixuan, she smiled: "Hurry up and eat; it won't taste good if it gets cold!"

"Thank you!" Liu Zixuan picked up a spoon and waved it at Zhou Madman twice: "Tsk tsk, it smells pretty good!"

Zhou Madman's facial muscles twitched a few times and then looked at Zhou Nian; "What about mine?"

"Just a moment!" Zhou Nian smiled cheerfully and turned away. Not long after, she brought a bowl of white porridge and half a bun!

"Hahaha!"

Seeing this, Liu Zixuan couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud.

Zhou Madman sat on the chair, blowing his beard and glaring: "What, was I raised by a stepmother? He gets bone soup with pancakes, and I get white porridge with a bun?"

"Dad, Zixuan is a guest, so naturally, he should have the best. Besides, he definitely did the work while you were out yesterday. You were just on the side without doing much, so some porridge is enough for you!" Zhou Nian smiled softly.

At this moment, Zhou Madman's facial expression was beyond words.

He grumbled and said: "I didn't do much? Do you know how much I was scared yesterday, almost died there! Now you give me porridge and a bun; I doubt if you're really my daughter!"

"Whether I'm your real daughter, you have to ask yourself!" Zhou Nian countered.

"I!"

Well, it's one thing to admit it, but if Zhou Madman said she wasn't his daughter, wouldn't that imply he had put a green hat on himself unwittingly!

Clenching his fists, he lowered his head and started eating.

But Liu Zixuan didn't let up, sipping on the soup and muttering: "This tastes great, my whole body feels warm and full of energy!"

"Wow! There's ham and eggs in the pancake, too! It's absolutely delicious!"

Endure!

I must endure!

Zhou Madman gnawed on the somewhat hard bun, forcibly suppressing his anger, his old face turning red!

By now, he was ready to strangle Liu Zixuan!

After eating and drinking, Liu Zixuan stood up and stretched: "It's daybreak, I should head home."

"Are you going to Medical University in the morning?" Zhou Nian asked.

"Depends, I might take a nap first!" Liu Zixuan said.

"Alright." Zhou Nian nodded with slight disappointment.

Suddenly, Liu Zixuan thought of something, stepped forward, lifted Zhou Nian's chin, and teased with a smile: "Little Nian, since you told my father-in-law about the baby, how about I move in with you tonight?"

"Ah?" Zhou Nian was taken aback, her face turning as red as a ripe apple!

Liu Zixuan grinned mischievously: "That way, I can take great care of our baby!"

"Pre… Predecessor, you…"

"Don't call me predecessor, come on, call me hubby!" Liu Zixuan interrupted Zhou Nian, smiling.
