Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 815 Early Morning
When the mountain eagle awoke from its slumber, the sky was already beginning to lighten...

Mountain Eagle sat up, carefully put his arm around Xiao Wan's slender shoulders, and looked at her as she slept with her brows relaxed and a faint smile on her lips. He suddenly felt very content.

A night of passion allowed the two to fully release their emotions...

Perhaps sensing the eagle's movement, Xiao Wan slightly opened her eyes and saw the daylight through the window. She was stunned for a moment, and just as she was about to sit up, the eagle pressed her down...

Mountain Eagle lowered his head and kissed Xiao Wan on the forehead, then turned and wrapped his arms around her body, groping her for a moment...

Feeling a little weak, Xiao Wan playfully nibbled on the eagle's shoulder and said, "Stop being naughty, I have to get up and make breakfast."

Mountain Eagle rubbed his head against Xiao Wan's neck and said, "You're the boss, what kind of boss makes breakfast for his employees?"

Xiao Wan couldn't help but let out a soft moan as her earlobe was being sucked. Then she pinched the eagle's strong waist hard and said, "Then you should find me some employees who can cook. Griffin and the others have tried to make breakfast, and Razer's daughter has also tried. Your son and I, on the other hand, can't eat a single bite."

As the two were talking quietly, the sound of children playing next door came from...

Luna woke up early in the morning and rushed downstairs, bursting into Yue Yi and Zack's room, causing Yue Yi to let out a dissatisfied shout.

Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle sighed and stopped talking to his wife. He pressed Xiao Wan back down to lie down, got up and dressed, and said unhappily, "I'm going to post a job ad right now. I need to find someone who is good at cooking and housework to help you."

I'll make breakfast today, you can rest a bit more..."

Xiao Wan nestled under the down comforter, gazing at the eagle's sculpted muscles. As he put on his underwear and turned to look for other clothes, the eagle's armor-like chest muscles and naturally defined abdominal muscles made Xiao Wan feel slightly hot.

Listening to Mountain Eagle's complaints, Xiao Wan, who was huddled under the covers with only her head sticking out, said with a smile, "Griffins and the others are just bodyguards. It's already quite good that they can help me share some of the work of taking care of the children. You can't expect them to do everything well..."

You don't need to bother hiring anyone; if we weren't in Alaska, it would be easy to find people.

Mountain Eagle quickly put on his clothes, then bent down and kissed Xiao Wan on the head, saying with a smile, "If we were in China, you could definitely solve these problems..."

However, you will inevitably have to take your child out in the future, and someone who only knows how to cook and do housework will find it difficult to keep up with your pace.

Don't worry, I'll figure something out. I'll definitely arrange two reliable helpers for you..."

Xiao Wan roughly understood what Shan Ying meant. She smiled and said, "Then I'll wait and see where you're going to find a life helper who can do housework and fight battles at the same time?"

Seeing that Xiao Wan looked a little incredulous, Shan Ying smiled and shook his head, saying, "There aren't many things in this world that money can't solve, and your husband just happens to be exceptionally wealthy."

There are quite a few female special forces veterans in China who can't find jobs after their service, so let's hire a few and send them to Lanxiang Technical School for culinary skills training...

By then, they'll not only be able to do housework, but they'll also be able to operate an excavator skillfully!

Xiao Wan chuckled and said irritably, "You're just talking nonsense..."

As she spoke, Xiao Wan suddenly remembered something and said to the mountain eagle, "Don't give the griffins a hard time today. They've really had a tough time."

Mountain Eagle waved his hand dismissively and said, "They approach work and competition from a male perspective, completely unable to balance the problems brought about by gender differences."

They see themselves as men, so they have to face the same dilemmas that only men face!

I was just reminding them, even though what I said was a bit harsh, but I'm the boss, right?
If they become negligent in their work because of me, then they are unqualified.

Xiaowan understood Shanying's point of view. When she couldn't be tough on those around her, she needed her husband to provide external pressure so that she could manage them.

This approach is somewhat utilitarian, and Xiao Wan doesn't feel she needs to use such methods to manage the griffins. However, when the mountain eagles take action, she is still willing to cooperate.

After all, this is the sentiment of the Mountain Eagles, and at the same time, it is also an internal announcement with a warning connotation!

According to the traditional saying at Dongda University, this is called "using both kindness and severity": Mountain Eagle is responsible for the punishment, and Xiao Wan is responsible for the reward...

Mountain Eagle opened the door and went out. As soon as he reached the hallway, he heard a scream coming from the next room. Then he saw Luna dragging Little Ava, screaming and running out of the room, and dashing upstairs in a flash...

Mountain Eagle, curious, walked to the door and peeked inside. He saw his son standing on the floor wearing only his underwear, holding snow he had scooped in through the window...

A large snowy owl stood on the windowsill with several smaller snowballs. They watched curiously as the two-legged creature in the room went berserk. Every time he yelled, the snowy owls would chirp along.

Balang's two sons are already over a year old. Although they are still a bit smaller than Balang, they are already taller than Yue Yi when they stand up.

Right now, the two Malinois were excitedly pouncing on Yue Yi. Yue Yi shoved a snowball into the mouth of one of the dogs, pushed away his two companions' enthusiasm, grabbed one of them, and pinched its mouth, saying disdainfully, "'Shuke,' from now on, if I tell you to bite her, you have to listen to me..."

As he spoke, Yue Yi grabbed the cheek of another Belgian Malinois and said angrily, "'Beta,' we're on the same side! You can't help Luna, you have to help me..." Zack, who had been sitting on the bed watching Yue Yi's erratic behavior with amusement, saw Mountain Eagle standing at the door. Just as Zack was about to get up, he saw Mountain Eagle wave at him...

Mountain Eagle chuckled and gestured to Zack to leave him alone, then turned and walked away, not wanting to get involved in this childish feud.

Especially seeing my son almost completely break free from the shadows of the past and show the qualities that a child his age should have…

From the bottom of his heart, Mountain Eagle felt that bringing Luna and the others back to his home was the best decision he had ever made!
In high spirits, the mountain eagle first went to the bathroom to wash up, and then went to the kitchen...

As they stood still in the kitchen, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Tiffany, along with the griffin and cardinal, returned from their morning exercise, their heads covered in snowflakes...

Seeing that the griffin and cardinal instinctively avoided his gaze, the mountain eagle said irritably, "Do you have any eggs at home?"

The griffin paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "There should be some in the cellar..."

Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle spread his hands and said, "Then go get it! What are you standing there for? Eggs, ham, bacon, flour..."

"You can't cook, but you can't even make coffee?"

The griffin nodded decisively after listening and said, "Understood, boss..."

Seeing the griffin turn and leave, the mountain eagle didn't know what she had understood...

The fiery-tempered Cardinal changed her argumentative attitude from the previous night. Although she was still muttering some Spanish slang, she didn't stop working and took the initiative to make coffee.

Mountain Eagle wasn't idle either; he went outside and found a pork chop, chopped it up, and put it in the oven to thaw...

While the ribs were thawing, he quickly prepared the ingredients such as scallions, ginger, garlic, lemon, and small chili peppers, and then soaked the rice noodles in warm water.

He was going to make a pot of Thai-style hot and sour soup...

After the pork ribs are thawed, they are blanched and rinsed, then put into a large pressure cooker with a few pieces of radish to remove the gamey smell and start making soup.

At this point, the griffin brought out everything he needed from the cellar...

Looking at the proud woman with a weathered face standing helplessly in the kitchen, Mountain Eagle sighed and shook his head, saying, "There's not much water left in the tank. Take some people to the lake to fetch water, then boil some water to refill the tank. Also, replace the torch stove under the tank."

As he spoke, the mountain eagle glanced at the griffin's obviously unwashed face, shook his head and chuckled, saying, "Washing your face with hot water in this weather is always comfortable."

After saying that, the mountain eagle ignored the griffin's complicated expression. He found the flour and poured it into a large bowl. Then he took a handful of chives from the vegetable bag, washed them briefly, chopped them up, and put them into the bowl along with chopped green onions. Next, he cracked a dozen or so eggs into the bowl...

Mountain Eagle isn't a god, and it's impossible for one person to prepare elaborate breakfasts for a dozen people, so he decided to make the simplest scallion and egg pancakes.

After alternating between adding flour and water and experimenting for a while, Mountain Eagle finally found the right consistency and then added salt and chicken bouillon based on experience.

After tasting it and confirming that it was alright, Mountain Eagle took out a frying pan and poured some lard into it.

He developed this habit while working in St. Petersburg, where the weather was cold and he set a high standard of exercise for himself, so he needed to maintain his calorie intake. Therefore, he would not use vegetable oil whenever possible, even if it was animal fat.

Moreover, food fried in lard does indeed taste better than food fried in soybean oil!
After the oil was hot, Mountain Eagle picked up the basin and poured some into the pot...

Rotate the pan to let the batter flow naturally, forming a thin pancake. With the help of the oil, the chopped green onions and chives in the pancake begin to release their aroma.

Once one side of the pancake was almost cooked, Mountain Eagle gently pushed the pancake with a spatula, then pushed and tossed it forward with his wrist, and the pancake obediently flipped in the air and fell into the pan.

It only takes three to five minutes to fry a scallion pancake, and soon Mountain Eagle had fried five or six...

Just as he was preparing to keep going, Selena, the Russian woman, came downstairs carrying the 'perfect baby'.

She made a bottle of baby formula for the baby, and then took out adult milk powder to prepare a large pitcher of milk and coffee creamer for the others.

After handing the baby bottle to the baby so she could feed herself, Selena walked over to the mountain eagle, observed it curiously for a moment, and then said, "Do you need any help? I can make pancakes."

Mountain Eagle glanced at Selena, the Russian girl, and nonchalantly gave up his seat. He walked to the side, took out another frying pan, poured in oil, and used half to fry bacon and the other half to fry eggs.

Selena frantically poured the batter into the pot, then realized with dismay that she had poured in a bit too much.

However, seeing that the eagle beside her didn't say anything, she carefully pushed the dough to prevent it from sticking to the bottom, and said to the eagle, "The Alaska matter is over. When do you think I can go back?"
