Futuristic Chef Transmigrated As Mother

437 God’s Chosen One

She didn’t know if her comforting words were effective, but the two of them seemed to have calmed down.

Xiaoguo knew that words alone couldn’t do much. The girls still had to interact with Xiaoyi first.

“Don’t worry. When he comes later, I’ll introduce him to you. He’s a cute little boy who likes to act cute.”

If not for his status, she would not have thought that Xiaoyi was the crown prince. How could such a lively, cute, cheerful, and kind boy be the only child of the noble emperor?

Xiao Zhu and Yu Ling nodded apprehensively, unable to hide the nervousness in their eyes.

Seeing them like this, Xiaoguo regretted telling them about Xiaoyi’s true identity. If she had known earlier, she would have told them that he was Zhuang Zhuang’s friend in the capital. It would have been more convenient than telling them that he was the crown prince.

She must have slept too much and become muddle-headed.

With that thought in mind, Xiaoguo rubbed her head and said helplessly, “I’ll go cook first.” Please visit 𝐟𝓇eℯ𝒘𝙚𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷𝗲Ɩ. co𝓶

When she arrived at the kitchen, she unwrapped the dough that she had prepared the previous night. Once she pulled the dough apart, a perfect honeycomb pattern was revealed.

Taking out the pork belly that she had taken out the night before, she diced it up, stir-fried it in bean sauce and threw in some salt for seasoning. After frying the meat, she set it aside, allowing it to cool before marinating it in a while.

When that was done, she started making the meat buns. In a while, she would prepare a plate of pickled radish. After that, she could steam some sweet potatoes and carrots with the buns. On top of that, she will also cook a pot of corn porridge and some eggs, which were always an essential item for their breakfast. A simple breakfast would then be complete.

Ever since Xiao Zhu and Yu Ling started living with Xiaoguo, they had grown much taller, which was proof of how nutritious Xiaoguo’s meals were.

On the other hand, Xiaoyi had woken up before dawn. He got dressed by himself and got out of bed. When he opened the door to look outside, he realized that the guards were still sleeping.

After stepping through the door, he bypassed the guards and went to Jiang Danhe’s room.

The room was empty—the person who was supposed to be there was nowhere to be found.

Feeling puzzled, he looked around the room but was unable to find any traces of Jiang Danhe. After thinking for a moment, he decided to look for Zhuang Zhuang on his own.

Since he couldn’t get back to sleep anymore, he might as well visit Zhuang Zhuang earlier and surprise him. Since the two adults didn’t agree to his plan, he would carry it out himself.

He is going to give him a big surprise. Haha!

Without further ado, Xiaoyi returned to his room, picked up his small school bag, closed the door, and set off.

The others were still asleep. They did not expect their crown prince to carry his school bag and go out alone secretly.

Of course, this did not include the secret guards.

“Boss, are we following the Crown Prince?”

“Of course.”

“Do you even need to ask?”

“Aren’t you asking the obvious. What is he going to do if we don’t follow him?”

“Number six, did you lose your brain too when you had diarrhea last night?”

The guard called ‘Number six’ did not expect his words to bring about so much dissatisfaction. He was on the verge of tears as he looked at his boss, who was the only one not mocking him. His boss still cares for him…

“Boss…”

“If your brain is useless, throw it away. At least your head will become lighter.”

The boss said coldly without looking back. He straightened the blanket, covered himself properly and closed his eyes.

“Hahahahaha…”

As soon as he finished speaking, laughter filled the room.

Number six looked aggrievedly at the other men who were older than him and snorted heavily. He didn’t dare to voice out his unhappiness.

Having no other choice because of his low rank and little experience, he could only bear with them.

“Alright, hurry up and follow me. If anything happens, we will get into big trouble.”

After saying that, the boss added, “Number six must be exhausted from the night shift. Get someone else to follow him.”

“Boss…”

Number six was already prepared to continue with his shift but he didn’t expect his boss to be so thoughtful. The man’s gesture really moved him.

While the others were always fooling around, the brotherly bond between the group was strong. When they heard this arrangement, nobody objected. So the three men went out automatically, leaving the others to rest in the room.

Xiaoyi’s memory of Peach Blossom Village was a little blurry. It had been a long time since he last came here. Before he came out, he was quite confident that he could find his way to Zhuang Zhuang’s house. However, after walking for a short distance, he became hesitant.

Reality had given him a hard slap across the face.

“Where am I?”

Xiaoyi was standing under a big tree in a daze. He looked up at the sky and then at the empty path. He was terrified and did not dare to move forward.

After a while, he managed to muster up his courage and took a gulp before walking forward.

In any case, one had to seek out the correct path, instead of waiting for it.

After a while…

“Number three, why do you think the Crown Prince is walking on the spot?”

“Who knows? Let’s wait a little longer. Maybe he’s exercising.”

After a while…

“What? He didn’t even walk more than a meter.”

“He didn’t move at all.”

“Is he lost?”

At this moment, someone finally pointed out the problem.

...

As soon as the words were spoken, the other men fell silent. “How could they not be aware of something that was so obvious? Why did he have to say it out loud?! That was so ridiculous!”

“Ahem.” Number Three glanced at Number Four, who immediately understood. He picked up a small stone and threw it in the correct path towards the destination.

Xiaoyi, who was in a dilemma, suddenly noticed an unknown object fly past from his right side. Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was a small stone.

The pebble landed on the road and jumped a few times before stopping on a main road.

Xiaoyi looked up and nodded to himself. This must be a hint from the heavens. That was quite amazing.

He had made his decision to go this way!

Just like that, Xiaoyi regained his full strength and strode forward with confidence, without any sign of the cowardice he had shown earlier.

Seeing that the Crown Prince was walking again, the secret guards were deeply moved. Their feet were getting numb from the cold. It was not an easy feat, getting the crown prince to start moving forward.

However, this joy did not last long because His Highness quickly got stuck again…

“… Number Four…”

Fourth Brother didn’t even need the other party to say anything. Looking like he understood, he skillfully picked up a stone and threw it forward.

...

Xiaoyi looked at the stones falling from the sky with joy. He knew that he was one lucky guy who was being watched by the heavens.

Following the pebbles, Zhuang Zhuang successfully arrived in front of the big tree closest to Xiaoguo’s house.

At this point, he could almost remember the route. He was very familiar with the big tree in front of him. At that time, Xiaohu had brought him and Zhuang Zhuang to climb it.

When Number Four saw him stop, he thought that the Crown Prince had forgotten the route again, so he instinctively wanted to throw another stone.

But before he could raise his hand, he was stopped by Number Three. The other party gestured for him to look ahead.

Number Four looked ahead strangely and realized that a tall figure had appeared out of nowhere. At this moment, the man was leaning against a big tree with his arms crossed. He was lazily looking at Xiaoyi, who was just a short distance away from him.

Xiaoyi raised his head and continued walking, suddenly feeling a little discouraged. He was feeling useless for not remembering the way. What’s worse was that after only a while, he had already forgotten where he came from. He had just walked past that route earlier on, but he had already forgotten the way.

“Sigh…”

“Hurry up. Breakfast is almost ready.”

Jiang Danhe was urging him on. He had been looking at the little guy for a long time. He watched him stop and walk so many times that he finally lost his patience.

Xiaoyi was looking dejected, but he perked up immediately when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

Looking up at the man who seemed like a savior, he thought to himself, “The pebbles have turned into a real person. God is really looking out for me.”

“By the way, what did he say just now? Aunt Xiaoguo made breakfast?! I miss it so much…”

When Jiang Danhe saw the little guy standing there in a daze, he frowned in confusion before turning around to leave.

Seeing this, Xiaoyi quickly ran after him.

As he ran, he shouted, “Wait… wait… for me…”

As Xiaoyi started to run, his bag bounced up and down, hitting his butt with each step. The continuous pounding somehow helped to carry his voice forward.

Although Jiang Danhe did not answer him, he quietly slowed down in response to his cries.
