My outrageous life in Honkai Impact 3

Xuan Yu looked at her work with satisfaction. She had to admit that Luo Chen's long hair was quite handsome, but the purple highlights in his bangs looked a bit out of place.

"Mom, Dad, he..."

Luo Chen spoke softly. For the past few days, Luo Chen had been wanting to ask Xi Lin and the others about his father, but he hadn't dared to speak up.

Although she knew he was dead, there's always an exception; maybe he's still alive?

"...Come with me."

Xuan Yu's expression gradually calmed down. After a long silence, she only said this sentence before leading Luo Chen to the outdoor garden.

The two arrived at a corner of the garden, where a row of sunflowers were planted, which Xuan Yu had planted herself a few days ago.

"It's strange, but before I married your dad, he gave me a sunflower for my birthday. I've loved this plant ever since."

Xuan Yu's eyes gradually glazed over as she reminisced about the past, her heart filled with both sweetness and bitterness.

"Mom, do you know the meaning of sunflowers?"

"Hmm? I don't know, I haven't paid much attention to these things."

Xuan Yu shook her head. She didn't know much about this, so she didn't know what Luo Chen was trying to say.

One of the meanings of sunflowers is silent love.

Luo Chen laughed and said, "Siegfried used to say that his dad was a blockhead who didn't know anything, but isn't he quite capable now?"

"That's it."

Looking at the sunflower, Xuan Yu realized that it was true; she was the one who pursued him back then. She even had Cecilia find Siegfried to be her wingman, and Kiyono Hatsuyuki occasionally provided assistance.

"Oh, right, I have something to give you."

As the two admired the sunflowers, Xuan Yu suddenly spoke up, taking a USB drive out of her pocket and handing it to Luo Chen.

"Here are some of the surveillance footage from the Tower of Babel. I think you are qualified to know this."

Chapter 250 I’m leaving

"It's another sunny day."

In the garden, Luo Chen was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, a straw hat, and a shovel in his hand. In front of him were newly planted cherry blossom trees.

"Brother Luo Chen, are the cherry blossom trees planted yet?"

Agatha walked out of the villa carrying a large bottle of soda, shouting at the top of his lungs.

"It's all better now. Agatha, your voice is so loud."

Galina, wearing a small straw hat, squatted under a tree, looking up at the sun, with a sleepy expression.

Half a month has passed since the Golden Snake came to discuss cooperation. Luo Chen originally planned to leave last week, but Xilin and the others refused to leave, so Luo Chen decided to stay a few more days.

"Galina, you didn't fall asleep, did you?"

Luo Chen straightened Galina's hat, and Agatha walked up to him and handed him a can of cola.

Didn't you bring a cup?

“She’s in Bella’s hands; she’s behind.”

Agatha pointed to the doorway, and Bella walked over with four plastic cups. When she saw the cherry blossom tree in the courtyard, her eyes lit up.

"Brother Luo Chen, this is a cherry blossom tree!"

"Yes, where are the others?"

There were more than a dozen children rescued here. It can only be said that Otto knew how to pick a location. This three-story villa had a lot of rooms, and even if each child had a room, it was only half full.

"Let me think... There are those who learn to cook with Sister Lixue, those who go shopping with Aunt Cecilia, and those who learn to sing with Sister Qiluo."

"Will we learn to sing with Sister Qiluo later?"

Luo Chen couldn't hold back anymore. Someone wanted to learn to sing from the Herrscher of Death Voice. Why would he have such a dream?

"Brother Luo Chen, I'm back!"

At the gate of the courtyard, Celine appeared carrying two large bags. Seeing the four people under the tree, she put down one bag and waved it at them.

"I know!"

Luo Chen responded, walked up to her, picked up the bag on the ground, and glanced at its contents.

"Instant noodles, instant noodles, and more instant noodles... No, Celine, how many instant noodles did you buy?"

Seeing Luo Chen's dark face, Xi Lin guiltily looked away, realizing she had bought a bit too much.

"You still haven't finished that box of instant noodles in your room, why did you buy so many cup noodles?"

"Instant noodles are on sale at the supermarket today."

Unable to argue with Luo Chen, Xilin resorted to acting cute, placing her hand next to her face and meowing like a kitten.

"Acting cute won't work. You're at the age where you're growing, and eating instant noodles every day isn't healthy."

As Luo Chen was about to confiscate Xi Lin's instant noodles, Xi Lin grabbed Luo Chen's thigh, puffed out her cheeks, and begged him.

"No way! This is a special edition, and there are many flavors I've never tried before!"

Who would have thought that the once-dominant Second Herrscher is now crying and whimpering because she has to carry instant noodles? Her tearful appearance is completely different from her former coldness.

"Okay, but you can only eat one bucket a week."

Xilin nodded quickly, afraid that Luo Chen would change his mind if she was too late. As the Herrscher of the Void, she possessed the power over space, and stealing instant noodles was something she could easily do.

"After I leave, Aunt Cecilia will keep track of the food every day, so don't even think about stealing any."

Luo Chen knew, of course, that Sirin would steal it. He handed the instant noodles in his hand to Cecilia, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, ignoring Sirin, who had turned gray.

"My instant noodles..."

Xilin was on the verge of tears. She squatted down, picked up a twig, and drew circles on it. Her only hobbies were playing games and eating instant noodles. Of course, in the future, she also planned to hack into St. Freya's forum to see Luo Chen's erotic pictures, but that was a story for another time.

"Alright, it's not like I'm not giving you any. Eating too much of this isn't good either."

Luo Chen patted Xilin's head and whispered to her, "Xilin, I'm leaving tomorrow."

"what?!"

The branch in Xilin's hand fell, she looked up and pouted, and was about to speak when Luo Chen covered her mouth.

“I’ve already stayed an extra week, and I have other things to do, so I have to leave this time.”

Xilin looked disappointed and nodded to indicate that she understood. Luo Chen was not from this timeline to begin with, and staying here any longer would probably really lead to trouble.

"OK then."

Xilin grabbed Luo Chen's hand, bumped her head against his arm, and walked into the villa.

"Xiao Chen, you're leaving already?"

Cecilia said softly, "Luo Chen has stayed here for too long. If he stays any longer, who knows what problems might arise."

"That's right, I still have something to do."

A few days ago, Luo Chen specifically asked Otto about the exact time when he was a child, because he still had to go and take care of the two little brats.

"There's nothing we can do about that. Will Xuanyu come back to take you tomorrow?"

“I told her that if I left before she arrived, she would beat me up when we meet again.”

Luo Chen scratched his face, recalling Xuan Yu's expression during their phone call yesterday. Luo Chen felt scared; his mother's suppression was just too strong.

"It's really something Xuan Yu would say."

Cecilia chuckled and nodded enthusiastically, but Luo Chen inexplicably had a bad feeling.

"Alright, then I'll cook for you today and make you a nice meal."

"Um, Aunt Cecilia. It's not that I don't trust you, but you really won't blow up the kitchen like Kiana did?"

"What are you thinking about?"

Cecilia tapped Luo Chen's head and squinted at him.

"I've been learning Chinese cuisine from Li Xue for over half a month, so don't worry!"

"Alright then, hopefully nothing will go wrong."

Luo Chen sighed. It wasn't that Cecilia couldn't cook; she just couldn't cook the cuisines she wasn't good at. She could cook European food deliciously, but when it came to Chinese food... Luo Chen wasn't sure how well she could cook it.

……

"Well, it's really good."

After dinner, Luo Chen lay on a deck chair in the courtyard and looked at the stars. He had to admit that Cecilia's cooking was really delicious, almost as good as Mei's.

"Xiao Chen, what are you doing here?"

Hearing someone speak, Luo Chen turned around and saw Cecilia and Shigure Kira. He sat up from the recliner and greeted them.

"Nothing to do, so I'm just looking at the stars here."

"Stars, are there still stars today?"

Shiyu Qiluo looked up and saw only a few stars hanging in the sky, along with large patches of dark clouds.

"At least there are a few. Aunt Cecilia, what are you all doing out here?"
