The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 884: Chapter 884: Zen Lifestyle

Zhang Nianping came to the kitchen, not only to ask her son these questions but mainly to help with cooking.

Letting Lin Tian work alone in the kitchen was something Zhang Nianping couldn’t accept.

Later, Yan Xinrou and Liou Qingcheng also joined in the kitchen. It seemed normal for Lin Tian to be working alone, especially since his cooking was both quick and delicious.

This was Zhang Nianping’s first time here, and she immediately stepped into the kitchen to help. How could the mother and daughter just sit?

So, they joined too.

Only the two fathers were left outside, sipping tea and chatting about their children.

Zhang Nianping reached for an apron, just about to put it on, when Lin Tian snatched it away. He said, ”Mom, I’m the chef today. You and Qingcheng can just wash the vegetables.”

”What? Me, washing vegetables?”

Zhang Nianping asked again uncertainly, only to notice Lin Tian already heating the oil.

Zhang Nianping stepped forward to take a look; he seemed quite skilled.

...

The table was filled with five dishes and one soup, the aroma wafting throughout the house.

Liou Zhengming had already glanced at the table more than once, swallowing his craving.

During this time, he mainly stuck to a vegetarian diet, yet other people’s vegetarian dishes never appealed to him, causing him to lose a bit of weight.

Now, smelling the familiar fragrance, Liou Zhengming’s stomach was grumbling.

Finally, Lin Tian brought the last seafood soup to the table, completing the meal.

Zhang Nianping was in a state of shock. Was this person... still her son? Like a new person?

She couldn’t cook such an impressive spread herself, and even if she did, it wouldn’t be this mouthwatering; enough to make everyone salivate.

Everyone washed their hands and took their seats.

Liou Qingcheng was also tempted but didn’t dare to eat as they were in front of the elders.

”Today is quite a significant day. This meal is meaningful too. Lin Tian, why don’t you give a toast?” Liou Zhengming said to Lin Tian.

Yan Xinrou clapped her hands with a cheerful smile, ”Yes, yes, Lin Tian, say a few words.”

Lin Tian stood up smiling and crying at the same time, cleared his throat and said, ”I don’t know how to give a toast, but let’s just say a few blessings. Wishing both dads and moms eternal youth and happiness, I can’t guarantee anything else, but living twenty more years should be possible.”

”Twenty years? Lin Tian, can you just blurt out such things?” Lin Hao said with a stern face, wondering what was up with this kid talking nonsense.

”Dad, I wasn’t just talking. You’ll find out later if I’m telling the truth.”

Lin Hao opened his mouth, wanting to say more, but ended up saying nothing.

Parents understand their own children; judging by his expression, he seemed serious, and it should be quite reliable.

Zhang Nianping said nothing either, as she was living the life she had once dreamed of. Her son was successful and soon to be married; she took the twenty years joke lightly.

Yan Xinrou laughed, ”How long anyone lives is destiny, as a mom, I just wish you both well.”

”Mom, don’t worry, Lin Tian wouldn’t dare bully me.” Qingcheng said while holding Zhang Nianping’s hand, with pride in her clear face, ”I’ve got a backup now.”

”Hahaha...”

From beginning to end, laughter filled the room throughout the banquet.

After they were full, Zhang Nianping and Yan Xinrou went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, chatting about the young couple having a baby.

Liou Zhengming and Lin Hao laid sprawled on the couch.

The delicious dishes and sweet meals, along with a good mood, boosted everyone’s appetite, nearly bursting their bellies.

Their conversation turned serious, discussing the children’s marriage.

Meanwhile, the central figures of the evening, Lin Tian and Liou Qingcheng, sneaked into Qingcheng’s room, sharing an intimate bath...

...

Time slowly approached the year’s end, everyone becoming busy, while Lin Tian led a more relaxed, Buddhist-like life.

Everyone seemed to be busy with their own things.

Bai Shishi and Mei Ruyan remained quite occupied, especially since Qiansimei was undergoing major changes.

Meanwhile, Bai Shishi also had to worry about Bai Tianlong’s health, Lin Tian visited him a few times, but the situation remained unpromising.

Attempts to reach Chen Moxiang by phone failed, likely due to her carrying out some mission, the risks of which always concerned Lin Tian.

Xu Ning’an’s leg had fully recovered, now in Pearl, but according to Wu Yong, she was gearing up for a trip overseas to find her father, Lin Tian immediately called to dissuade her.

After all, she’s just a girl, how can one be at ease?

Despite her compliance, secretly she remained stubborn.

Zhou Mi had also been busy as she formally decided to become a star, needing to learn a lot. After drinking with Jiang Pan Die, they became close friends, now Zhou was learning professional skills from the star Jiang Pan Die.

Meanwhile, Zhao Qingtang and Zhao Xuefeng threw themselves into research on the Sakula Country virus, their enthusiasm for medicine was something Lin Tian admired.

Miaoqiu had now returned to South City. Lin Tian gave her many pill formulas, enough to turn all of South City the Xu Family’s stored medicine into pills.

Of course, Lin Tian took royalties from the pill sales; five-tenths from other families, three-tenths from the Xu Family.

Other families took some formulas from Lin Tian too. However, Lin Tian remained unsure how much they could make; calculating royalties might result in being deceived.

So he set prices based on formula value, ranging from ten to fifty pills.

Agreements were made, although not with everyone. Due to the large quantities, he planned to collect them all later.

Lin Tian wasn’t worried about potential deceit, since ancient martial families value reputation highly.

As for the Wang Family, Lin Tian blacklisted them entirely, refusing any collaboration. Their herbal remedies couldn’t be processed into pills; coupled with suppression from the council, they incurred significant losses.

Preoccupied with their own issues, they left Lin Tian alone.

What relieved Lin Tian most was the Black Gold Security Company, quietly taking over the Kanyue City market.

Now higher-end residential areas, hotels, and bars all seemed to employ Black Gold security.

Black Gold bodyguards gradually gained popularity among the elite, thriving on reputation!

Additionally, Lin Tian’s intelligence network seamlessly integrated with the Xu Family’s, sharing information and resources.

Half a year ago still an unknown company, it now reached such a scale, a miracle.

This success was thanks to Bai Shishi, Wu Yong, Pang Yu, Tian Ming, Tie Ying, and Li Tian.
