Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"Hey, what do you all want to eat for lunch? Since Uncle Shenlan isn't here, I'll take care of cooking. I'm going to Babel Tower tomorrow and the day after, so you guys can discuss who will cook then!"

After asking everyone what they wanted to eat for lunch, Zhang Hao thought that tomorrow would be the weekend, but at least he had left Roy and Wei Long behind. With those two guys here, they wouldn't go hungry, right?

"Wow, it's rare to see Xiao Hao cook! To be honest, it's been a long time since I've had Xiao Hao's cooking. Xiao Hao, I want to have army stew for lunch, with lots of luncheon meat and instant noodles. That would be absolutely delicious."

Luna's eyes lit up when she heard that Xiao Hao was going to cook for her. Although Instructor Shen Lan's cooking was indeed very delicious, compared to the food Xiao Hao made himself, Luna could only say that she preferred the kind of food that contained Xiao Hao's love for her!

Zhang Hao: Hmm? Including love, infusing emotions? Isn't that something that only happens in anime? Maybe that high-class cooking plus talent combination has that, but right now... Sister Luna, you're just overthinking it.

"Tsk tsk tsk, all you ever think about is your instant noodles and army stew. It's no wonder you look so old. Xiao Hao, I want chicken soup! Can you make me some chicken soup for lunch?"

Upon hearing what Luna wanted to eat, Mai Xiaowen expressed disdain, saying that Luna was really something else, eating instant noodles every day and still not getting tired of it, while she herself was already tired of seeing it.

Besides, I can make my own army stew and instant noodles, right? There's absolutely no need for Xiao Hao to do it. The chicken soup I ordered is the real delicacy. You know, the weather is getting colder these days, although it won't get too cold in Asara.

But what a wonderful thing it would be to enjoy a bowl of chicken soup like this on a day off!

Just thinking about Xiao Hao's chicken soup made Mai Xiaowen's mouth water. Of course, she wondered if the Special Operations Department still had any frozen chicken. If not... a pork rib soup would be perfect!

"Tch, all you think about is drinking your soup. You can't even eat a little bit of chili, yet you have the nerve to make demands here. In the entire Special Operations Department, you're the only one who can't eat any chili. If you ask me, you should just obediently accept the training of the army hotpot!"

Seeing that the two women were about to start arguing again, Zhang Hao skillfully chose to ignore them. He used to try to mediate, but after each time they would hug him and "vent" their frustrations, Zhang Hao learned to simply ignore them.

Zhang Hao: I seriously doubt that my actions in the past actually had any effect on alleviating the situation. I was just like a lamb that had entered a pack of wolves. Instead of doing that, I might as well just learn from Roy and Brother Weilong and stand on the sidelines and watch the show.

"What would you like to eat? Uncle Terry, I know you want some high-protein, low-fat meals. I'll make you a special one later. Uncle Red Wolf, you're not picky, right? I'll just make a few simple home-style dishes later."

"Wait, wait, wait! Xiao Hao, what about the two of us? Why don't you ask us what we want to eat?"

Seeing Zhang Hao preparing to go to the kitchen to prepare ingredients and cook, Wei Long and Luo Yi, who were eagerly waiting on the side, got anxious. As the two most gluttonous pigs in the entire Special Operations Department, how could Xiao Hao just skip them?

"You two? Aren't you the type to eat whatever's available? Besides, didn't you just have a nice meal at Uncle Said's place a couple of days ago? You even ordered from the menu?"

Faced with these two gluttons, Zhang Hao said that he could simply ignore their ideas. Even if he made dishes that weren't what they ordered, these two would still happily finish them all.

Zhang Hao suggested that he would make a few things he hadn't tried yet. If they didn't suit everyone's taste, there were still these two "gods of war" here. With them around, there would never be any leftovers in this Special Operations Department!

"Hiss~~~ Xiao Hao, what you said does make a lot of sense. Remember to make some dishes that go well with rice, I don't like those Western-style dishes!"

Roy thought for a moment and realized, "Yeah, there's nothing I won't eat, and besides, it's Xiao Hao who's cooking today, so I might as well just wait to eat, hehe!"

"What are you, a Brit, saying here? You're really something else. Xiao Hao, I want Mapo Tofu! And if you're having scrambled eggs with tomatoes, add a few extra eggs!"

After seeing Zhang Hao give him an OK sign, Wei Long happily went upstairs to his room. With this Mapo Tofu and Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes, that was enough for him. He would pour these two over rice, and wow, the aroma would be irresistible!

So now, the most important thing for me is to figure out how to make Roy reveal a weakness. There's still some time before dinner, so I need to go back to my room and think about a better strategy.

Meanwhile, downstairs, Roy, seeing that Wei Long had actually gone straight upstairs to his room, began to think about how to make Wei Long make a mistake in front of him. Under the curious gazes of Red Wolf and Terry, he muttered to himself as he walked towards the infirmary.

"Hey Terry, don't you think Veelong and Roy are acting a bit strange today?"

Seeing this, Red Wolf turned to Terry and asked, and Terry quietly replied:

"Maybe these two have grown up. Whatever, I'm going to the gym."

Chapter 502 See You Tomorrow

"Claire, are you taking tomorrow off? What are you planning to do?"

Meanwhile, in Demulan's office at the space base, Demulan looked at the leave slip Claire handed him and asked curiously, "I was planning to take her with me to pick up my Cammy tomorrow, but Claire has asked for two days off."

Demulan: Sigh, it seems Claire is far less dedicated to the Hafk Group than Mary. It seems Mary has never asked me for leave since she joined the company.

"Oh, it's like this, Ms. Demulan, Dr. Rometheus said he wants me to come to his place this weekend. He's going to install a Relink brain-computer interface on me and Xiao... cough cough, that is, to install a Relink brain-computer interface on me."

Claire reacted just a second before Zhang Hao was exposed and immediately changed her story, but could this fool the wise Demoulan? The answer is obviously no.

Upon hearing the news, Desmoulins' eyes lit up immediately. He then looked at Claire, who had suddenly become shy and awkward in front of him, and smiled gently at her.

"Oh, I see. Well then, go ahead. After all, this is something that can improve your combat power, so you have to take it seriously. Besides installing a brain-computer interface on you, is there anyone else doing this?"

Upon hearing Desmoulins' question, Claire immediately shook her head vigorously, saying at the same time:

"No, no, I just said something wrong with my mouth. Tomorrow it'll just be me and that [Zero] together. Um... Ms. Demulan, do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll be going now."

Seeing Claire's series of abnormal behaviors, Demulan could confirm that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Xiao Hao would probably have to go to Rometheus tomorrow to have the Relink brain-computer interface installed.

Demulan: Tsk tsk tsk, this Rometheus is really generous. When he installed this Relink brain-computer interface on me, he kept telling me that it was a very valuable thing and that I should take good care of it. And now? You've turned this into a greeting gift! You're really using company assets to do favors!

"Mary, come here for a second."

After Claire left, Desmoulins immediately called Mary in and then instructed her:

"Take a look now, see if there are any flights that fly from the US and back in one day, and you can accept a delay."

Upon hearing this, Mary immediately took out her phone to check, and then, looking troubled, said to Desmulan:

“Ms. Demouran, the only flights are tomorrow and the day after. It's possible that we can't return tomorrow.”

Desmoulins nodded in agreement, then said to Mary:

"Well, it's nothing. What I was thinking was that when I came back this Sunday, I could go to Rometheus's place to replace my Relink brain-computer interface and introduce Kami to the people there. Since there are no planes available, I'll just fly over here."

Mary: By herself... flying the plane there?

“Ms. Demurean, is it really necessary to rush like this? It doesn’t need you to do it yourself. I’ll arrange a driver for you.”

Desmoulins nodded in agreement, then, as if remembering something, said to Mary:

"Get me a slightly larger plane then, otherwise we'll have to call a car to bring us back. Okay, that's all. Thanks, Mary."

Upon hearing this, Mary immediately said she would go and make preparations right away. She then went out to find a plane and a pilot for Demulan. After Mary left, Demulan leaned back in his chair. Thinking that his Camille would meet the little husband she had chosen for her the day after tomorrow, the corners of Demulan's mouth couldn't help but turn up.

Seemingly remembering something, Demulan picked up his phone and called his beloved Cammy. The call was answered shortly after.

"Hello! Mom, is something the matter? And what time are you coming tomorrow?"

As soon as the call connected, Kami's cheerful voice came from the other end. Upon hearing Kami's voice, Demulan couldn't help but smile and said:

"It's nothing, Mom just wanted to ask if you have any pretty dresses there? If not, Mom will bring you a beautiful princess dress when I go tomorrow."

"How could there not be, Mom? I've been waiting for you to come to my graduation ceremony for so long! I've prepared everything I need to. When you come, you'll definitely see a beautiful me!"

Cammy smiled happily at the thought of seeing her mother tomorrow, and seeing Cammy so happy, Demulan decided to give her more good news, saying:

"Kami, you haven't forgotten Xiao Hao, whom I showed you before, have you?"

Upon hearing Demulan mention Zhang Hao's name again, Kami was momentarily stunned, then her face flushed red once more. She stammered and asked Demulan:

"I remember... I remember, what's wrong, Mom? Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

Hearing Kami's shy tone on the phone, Demulan could already guess that Kami was probably blushing deeply, and said with a hint of exasperation:

"Why are you so shy? I'm counting on you to win over Xiao Hao for me. Mom, looking at you like this, I'm afraid you'll be the one who gets kidnapped!"

Hearing Demulan's teasing, Kami's face turned even redder. He'd only just graduated from university! Why was he in such a hurry? Besides... that Xiao Hao wasn't even as old as him!

"Mom, let me tell you, a boy as cute and capable as Xiaohao has a lot of rivals. I just don't want to see Xiaohao snatched away by someone else."

Chapter 503 Just find Demulan

Demulan felt a headache coming on when he thought about the girls in the report and the ones he had seen with Xiao Hao last time. Although he saw that some of them were relatively older, Demulan was not naive enough to think that they would really let Xiao Hao go.

In Demulan's view, those girls who spent every day with Xiao Hao in the Special Operations Department were the real rivals of her Kami.

But when she thought about her own Kamie's easygoing personality, Demulan didn't know what to say. How to put it? She was really afraid that her Kamie wouldn't be able to compete with those fierce and ambitious women.

Demulan: But it's okay, I'm here for you. Don't worry, Cammy. With your mother here to advise you, just do as I tell you, and you'll be able to win over Xiao Hao!

After hanging up the phone, Demulan realized it was time to change his clothes. He could keep his work clothes at Asara's place for now, since he was going to attend Kami's graduation ceremony tomorrow and needed to dress more formally.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . .

Time flew by and it was already the next day. The sun had just risen when Demulan, dressed in a well-fitting beige suit, boarded the plane. As the plane took off, Demulan also saw Claire, who had just come out of the dormitory building and was preparing to head to the Tower of Babel.

"I hope this little girl hasn't realized what's happening yet, otherwise it would be bad if Xiao Hao ran away, but........................ she probably won't be able to realize what's happening yet, so why am I worried?"

Thinking about her interactions with Claire in daily life, Demulan's initial apprehension subsided. Claire was probably relieved to have successfully smoothed things over with him, and might even brag about it to Rometheus and the others. Speaking of Rometheus…

Thinking of this, Demulan, who had been calm, immediately became uneasy. Yes, if Claire had told Rometheus, that cunning Rometheus would have guessed what she was thinking.

Thinking of this, Demulan immediately began to consider ways to remedy the situation. If he were to call Claire now and tell her not to say anything, his purpose would be far too obvious.

After thinking it over, Demulan called Rometheus directly. It seemed he had to keep the guy in check first, but at the same time, he couldn't let him know that he was going to raid him this weekend.

After waiting for almost half a minute after making the call, the other end answered, and a sleepy voice came through the phone:

"Ha~~~ Who is it? If you need something, go find Demulan first. If not, just hang up. I'm just an experimenter. The person in charge in Asara is called Demulan."

De Mourinho: (╬▔皿▔)╯

Now Demulan understood why so many people had called her recently. Even though so many of them were there to collaborate on Relink brain-computer interfaces, which wasn't their responsibility, Demulan still had people organize the information before transmitting it to Rometheus.

And now, his surprise inspection made everything make sense. It turned out the culprit was none other than Rometheus standing right in front of him. Demulan, unable to suppress his anger, coldly asked:

"Oh? So I'm in charge of everything? Then Rometheus, tell me, you've taken over that huge Tower of Babel just to use it for your experiments? Answer me!!!"

Hearing Demulan's voice on the phone, a voice he hadn't heard from in a long time, Rometheus was startled and immediately opened his still-drowsy eyes. He then sprang out of bed, looked at the phone screen in disbelief, and after realizing it really was Demulan on the other end, Rometheus chuckled somewhat awkwardly:

"Hehehe, this.............................I was just joking, oh well, besides, doesn't this also prove that you are the boss on our Asara's side? Look at you, don't be in such a hurry!"

Rometheus felt a little flustered. Why did Demulan always call him so early in the morning? She always caught him off guard with a surprise attack, and now she had caught him doing something bad again.

"Hmph, I'm going to the US to pick up my daughter now. I'm going to your place next week to have the Relink brain-computer interface you prepared for me installed. Any problems?"

When Rometheus heard that Demulan was planning to come next week, he breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Hao was coming to his place soon, and he was going to install Relink brain-computer interfaces on them tomorrow. If Demulan was planning to come next week, then there was no problem.

"Next week, right? No problem at all. You're picking up your precious daughter today? Time flies!"

Demulan was too lazy to waste any more words with Rometheus. He said he would settle the score with him next week and then hung up the phone. He figured everything should be fine now.

Sitting aboard this private luxury jet, Demulan couldn't help but marvel at the astonishing wealth and international influence of the Hafk Group. Back when he first joined the Hafk Group as a junior office clerk, he never imagined that he would own a private luxury jet now.

Several hours later, it was now 10 a.m.

“Ms. Demurean, we are about to arrive at the headquarters of the Hafk Group. Are you going directly to Miss Kami's school, or…”

Demulan waved his hand, looked at the towering building in front of him, and said:

"No need, just park it properly. I'll drive straight to Kami's place. You can stay here and be on standby."

After the plane came to a complete stop, Demoulins disembarked, and a car drove straight toward her.
