When morning came, Lin Fan was the first one to wake up.

He had fallen asleep in Ming Xin's room after being exhausted by their love making session last night.

For the first time, he had actually found someone that was able to keep up with him and had been able to fully finish with just one person.

He couldn't help looking at Ming Xin who was lying there with a satisfied look on her face as she dreamed about something with an impressed look. Normally, it would take several girls for him to be satisfied because no one could keep up with him, but she had done just that..

Of course, he did have another session with Duanmu Ming Yue and Duanmu Yi earlier, but it was still very impressive.

Making sure not to make too much sound, he let her sleep as he slowly got up and headed out the room.

When he came out, he could see from the door to Duanmu Ming Yue's room that she was still asleep.

Normally, she would already be up since she was the one that cooked breakfast for all of them. However, since she was sleeping in today, Lin Fan didn't wake her up since he knew that she would be tired after what happened last night.

So he quietly made his way down to the kitchen before heading into the pantry to see what they had.

He wasn't someone that cooked normally, so there wasn't much that he could make in the first place.

What he did find was some eggs and bacon, so he decided to make a famous dish from his world. To try and make it a bit better, he also took a few tomatoes, some beans, and a few pieces of bread.

It was just too bad that he didn't know how to cook it properly, so it turned into one large circle instead.

There were hints of red, brown, pink, white, and yellow here and there.

In short, it was just a large mess.

And as for the flavour..

As he was cooking, there were girls that suddenly walked in.

It was Yue Lan and the others who had finally come home after a long night of work.

They had fallen asleep outside, so they were coming home early in the morning.

When they saw Lin Fan cooking there, they couldn't help being surprised. That was because they were already used to seeing Duanmu Ming Yue cooking early in the morning.

Yue Lan took the lead and asked, "Why are you cooking?"

Lin Fan revealed an awkward smile as he said, "Well, Ming Yue was a bit tired, so she's still sleeping."

When she heard the word "tired", Yue Lan immediately narrowed her eyes to look at him.

Lin Fan felt like this gaze was burning him, so he couldn't help turning away as he didn't dare look directly at her.

Seeing that he wasn't saying anything, it basically confirmed what Yue Lan was already thinking. However, she didn't say anything as she led the other girls to sit down and have breakfast.

When Lin Fan saw this, he revealed a bitter smile, but he went back into the pantry to get more ingredients to cook for them.

The food that he made..it couldn't be considered good, but it also couldn't be considered bad. The best way to describe it was that it was..edible.

Still, the girls were very happy to eat this because this was something that Lin Fan had made for them.

As long as it was something that Lin Fan made, they would happily eat it.

When Duanmu Ming Yue came down with Duanmu Yi, she was surprised to see everyone already sitting there eating. At the same time, she couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed since she saw that it was Lin Fan cooking.

She had already vowed to serve Lin Fan to the best of her abilities, so letting him cook for her was..something that went against that vow.

It was hard not for her to feel bad when this happened.

She was about to apologize, but Lin Fan waved his hand to cut her off before putting a plate in front of her with some eggs and bacon.

She looked down and she could tell immediately how poorly it was made, but she also couldn't help revealing a smile as a warm feeling filled her heart.

This was something that she had never experienced before, so having it happen for the first time was very touching to her.

With Duanmu Yi, she began eating the plate of eggs and bacon.

Yue Lan saw this and couldn't help saying, "It really was hard for us yesterday and you seemed to have had quite a bit of fun by yourself."

Lin Fan jolted when he heard this.

The same with Duanmu Ming Yue, but before she could say anything, Yue Lan raised her hand to cut her off. After all, this comment of hers wasn't directed at Duanmu Ming Yue or Duanmu Yi.

She had already expected that they would become Lin Fan's women eventually with how they acted and she personally quite liked them. She knew that they would be a great fit in Lin Fan's harem, so she already knew that it was just a matter of time.

But for some reason, there was a bit of an annoyed feeling that was inside of her.

While they had been working hard, Lin Fan had snuck back and had fun with Duanmu Ming Yue and the others still at the manor.

It was almost as if he was sneaking around their backs which gave her a slightly uncomfortable feeling.

If he was starting to sneak around now..then what would he do in the future?

If he was starting to do things like this..who knew what he might do?

This could be the beginning of the end of their relationship. After all, this might be a sign that he was already getting tired of them.

So in the end, it was her insecurity that made her feel slightly annoyed with Lin Fan.

Lin Fan could see that she was angry, so he didn't say anything and just nodded along as she complained.

Yue Lan continued by complaining, "You were here having fun at the manor while we were stuck with a big problem. The waterway was freezing up because it's getting colder and we had to manually defrost it to get it working again. Do you know how many people it took just to do all of that?"

Once again, Lin Fan nodded along as Yue Lan kept spoking.

This was the technique that Lin Fan had learned from his father..not the father of the current body, but the father of the Lin Fan from Earth.

Through his relationship with Lin Fan's mother, he had taught Lin Fan that sometimes when women complained, it was because they just wanted someone to listen to them complain. There was no need for him to say anything, he just needed to listen to her.

However, he couldn't just pretend to listen and had to actually listen or it would make her even more angry.

So while she complained to him, he nodded and shook his head according to the complaint that she made to him.

After all, he was responsible for most of her complaints. Even though she had happily taken on the job, it was still his work that she was doing since it was his town and his business that she was managing.historical

Honestly, if it wasn't for Yue Lan, Lin Fan really wouldn't know how to manage a business of the scale that she had built. If she did one day leave him, he would become as helpless as a child in terms of managing this business and town.

But of course, that was impossible because Yue Lan was already deeply in love with Lin Fan. She would never leave him if she could and even if she was forced to, she would fight to her last breath to stay.

Slowly as she complained, she couldn't help feeling better and better.

That was because she was indeed too stressed out from handling all of these matters.

But as she was complaining, Ming Xin also came down for breakfast.

She had been standing outside for a bit, listening to Yue Lan's complaints before coming in.

When she walked in, Yue Lan had been in the middle of complaining, but Ming Xin cut her off by saying, "If you line the walls of the waterway with some dried Fire Stone Powder, you'll be able to keep them from freezing over. At the same time, the Fire Stone Powder will last for over ten years, so we only need to replace it every so often, which is quite cost effective."

Yue Lan suddenly stopped complaining to look in Ming Xin's direction.

Her face was covered in shock because she knew that Ming Xin's suggestion would work, it was just that she had never thought of it.

But before she could say anything, Ming Xin started giving her more and more suggestions that would solve most of the complaints that she had made to Lin Fan.

Yue Lan had a shocked expression on her face at first when she heard this, but then she couldn't help revealing a more and more cautious look, as if she suspected Ming Xin of something.

Ming Xin finished up her suggestions and said, "If you want, I can work with you to solve all of these problems."

Yue Lan didn't say anything at first as she knitted her brows in thought while looking at Ming Xin. After a long period of silence, she finally asked, "Why are you only coming forward to help now?"

Ming Xin just replied with a calm look on her face, "I felt that it was the right time now."

Yue Lan kept looking at Ming Xin for a while before suddenly giving a nod and saying, "Alright, you'll work for me from now on."
