Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 599 - 22 You are far behind others

Wang Yunxiao carried buns back to the school, waiting for his brothers who instantly turned their heads, pretending to be busy with their hands and focused on their own tasks.

Little Gourd’s eyes bulged, staring incredulously at the steamer in his hand.

"Big Brother...when did you get a wife?"

"Don’t listen to her nonsense; we’re not that kind of relationship."

"Isn’t that just short of getting married!"

You might actually have a point, considering the general traditional views of the time. If a girl delivers food to you and you eat it, then the relationship is pretty much set – so saying it’s just short of getting married isn’t really wrong.

Wang Yunxiao said helplessly, "For an outstanding bachelor like your big brother to be favored by women outside, even to the point of them throwing themselves at me, isn’t that pretty normal? If I were really to find you a sister-in-law, could I possibly keep it from you all?"

"You’re right, Big Brother!"

Matuan immediately said, "A sister-in-law is a sister-in-law, a sweetheart is a sweetheart; the two are different. Gourd, you can’t be jealous about everything..."

Then, he felt the death glare from Little Gourd.

"What sweetheart? Can’t you die if you don’t talk!"

Wang Yunxiao lifted the steamer: "Are we eating the buns or not? She specifically made these extra ones."

Little Gourd reached out to grab a bun, took a bite, and his expression gradually turned rigid.

Dumpling came over, took one, tasted it, and then nodded, "The sister-in-law’s... cough, cough! The girl’s cooking skills are good, you can tell it’s homemade, there is something authentic about it."

Little Gourd turned and ran away.

"Isn’t that bringing up what should not be brought up?"

Youtiao slapped Dumpling on the head: "She can’t cook, and it’s not like you don’t know that."

"She can cook; I’ve taught her, of course, she definitely can’t compare to the sister-in... can’t compare to this girl."

Dumpling gave a thumbs up and praised, "Big Brother has good taste. I think that girl has both looks and figure, and she’s also skillful with her hands. You’re set for a good life in the future!"

"Can’t compare to Eldest Miss Li."

"Now you’re just being disingenuous, Li..."

Under Youtiao’s meaningful gaze, Dumpling quickly corrected himself: "What I mean is, they’re not comparable. How can you compare bird’s nest and shark’s fin with plain wheat noodles?"

Li Mumu walked by, took a bun and took a bite, then turned to look at Wang Yunxiao, "Sent by Miss He?"

Wang Yunxiao: "..."

"She didn’t make it herself, did she?"

"Eh?"

Before Wang Yunxiao could react, Dumpling became flustered feeling his expertise was being questioned, "This is obviously home-flavored..."

"Home flavor is right, but the pleats on this bun are too well made, clearly the work of a professional chef."

The buns from Tianmen require a lot of attention to detail, from the filling to the dough, and they’re made in a unique way. The most obvious sign was that each bun had to have neatly pinched thirteen pleats—although it was really just a gimmick and did not make the bun taste any better, this craft did allow one to distinguish between professional chefs and homemakers.

He Lan... although Li Mumu had only met her twice, she could see that this girl paid a lot of attention to appearances. It’s not that she had any issues with her substance; rather, she displayed the common feminine trait of loving beauty.

Seeing the dumbfounded expressions of Wang Yunxiao’s brothers, Li Mumu raised an eyebrow and said, "Don’t you know her?"

The brothers shook their heads one after another, casting subtle glances towards Wang Yunxiao.

"Her name is He Lan, she’s your big brother’s..."

Li Mumu thought about it and decided to swallow the word "mistress".

"A junior from his martial arts sect, the kind who fell in love with your big brother at first sight and won’t marry anyone but him."

Li Mumu, stop spreading rumors!

Wang Yunxiao only felt his mouth go dry and his tongue parched.

He couldn’t find a way to defend himself.

In broad daylight, under the scrutiny of the public eye, with so many pairs of eyes watching and ears listening... how could he explain? To explain is to cover up!

But Laozi is truly innocent!

Haven’t you country bumpkins ever seen a female rogue?

"Sister Mumu, why do you know this woman?"

Dumpling stared at Li Mumu with a baffled face and asked.

Usually, we brothers are inseparable from our elder brother. Why is it that we are the last to know something like elder brother having a love interest? And you, an eldest miss, how can you detect such subtle differences in these buns?

"Your elder brother asked me to treat her."

As for this skill, heh heh...

A bun that doesn’t shine simply has no soul to speak of.

If the materials are sufficient, I could make you a "Gold" laugh with a wide-open mouth.

What’s there to show off about? It’s nothing more than a countryside girl’s tactic to vie for favor.

Childish.

Li Mumu licked off the grease on her fingers and smiled at Wang Yunxiao, "You’ll be blessed in the future, having someone deliver meals to you daily, tsk tsk tsk. If I were a man, I couldn’t resist such favors from a beauty; not marrying her would leave me with an uneasy conscience."

Wang Yunxiao said helplessly, "I have no thoughts about her."

"Your elder brother says he has no thoughts about Miss He."

Li Mumu turned her head to look at the brothers and said with a smirk, "I don’t believe it, what about you guys?"

"If elder brother says he has no thoughts, then he has no thoughts!"

Youtiao decisively stood up to take the hit for his elder brother at this moment, "This steamer of buns isn’t enough for us to share; let’s go to the canteen instead. It’s just some food being delivered, what’s the big deal. I know elder brother doesn’t like that type."

Your elder brother doesn’t like D cups?

Nonsense. In this era, developing to that extent is already a gifted talent. Even I can’t help but want to give them a squeeze...

Li Mumu asked with an unchanged expression and a smile, "What type does your elder brother like?"

Youtiao answered calmly, "My elder brother likes women who are educated, the kind that are both talented and good-looking."

Good!

Wang Yunxiao gave Youtiao a firm mental thumbs-up in his heart.

Good brother, truly worthy of being the Quartermaster of the team, he speaks with such level!

The precision of his tact is just right.

Li Mumu raised an eyebrow and glanced at Wang Yunxiao, "So you’re saying you look down on Miss He because she’s uneducated? Well, that’s easy, next time I see her, I’ll just tell her to have her family send her to study, wouldn’t that solve the problem?"

Are you trying to fan the flames and make a big deal out of a funeral?

Wang Yunxiao said coldly, "Classmate Li Mumu, the school explicitly forbids early romantic relationships, please do not instigate and exacerbate the situation. Right now, I only want to study, work hard, and after graduation, become a person useful to society and the nation. Matters like romance, marriage, and having children, I have no intention of considering them at this time!"

The brothers immediately looked at him with admiration.

How else could he be the big brother, being able to say such shameless things so blatantly.

Great! It has spirit! Worthy of being the big brother of the third year!

Li Mumu nodded in satisfaction.

This is what you said yourself; your brothers all heard it, so don’t go back on your word later.

I’ll catch you dead to rights!
