Urban Super Thor - Kapitel 69
Xue Beifan watched Xiaodao cook with such skill and found it amusing—look how capable this girl is!
As Xiao Dao sprinkled ground Sichuan peppercorn powder onto the golden-yellow fried rice with his fingertips, the aroma instantly filled the air.
Xue Beifan sniffed it and thought it looked pretty good! Xiao Dao ladled out a big bowl for him and started cooking other dishes.
"Do so much?"
"This big portion is for my older brother!" Xiao Dao said, his movements as he skillfully wielded the shovel.
"I wasn't finished talking earlier." Xue Beifan took a bite and found it incredibly delicious, then scooped out a spoonful and brought it to Xiao Dao's lips. Xiao Dao ate it in one gulp, savoring the taste, and nodded, "Mmm! Go spread some more sesame paste on it, and find a leaf of vegetable to wrap your rice in and eat it together."
Xue Beifan did as instructed, and felt that he was developing in the direction of Hao Jinfeng, the good-for-nothing.
"What I've been saying is that it's common for daughters of noble families to not be very pretty, while being perfectly beautiful is extremely rare. In addition, men in the Western Regions don't have the same soft features as those in the Central Plains, so daughters are more likely to be tall and have rougher skin. In short, I always felt that it was normal for the Queen to look like Yao Duo, and it was abnormal for her to look like the portrait."
As they were talking, Hao Jinfeng rushed in first, exclaiming, "It smells so good!"
Xiao Dao had just finished cooking his portion, so he served him rice while asking Xiao Yue, "Where's Yao Duo?"
"Chonghua is taking care of her inside. He told us to come and eat first." Xiaoyue took the large bowl of fried rice with eggs that Xiaodao handed her.
"Why did she react so strongly?" Xiao Dao asked Xiao Yue, who was taking Yao Duo to rest.
"I don't know, she's still sulking, saying something about 'those bastards'," Xiaoyue shook her head. "Mmm! Delicious!"
Xue Beifan quickly ate half a bowl of rice and asked Xiao Dao, "What are you planning to do next?"
"We'll see what she's made of once we take her out for a spin." Xiao Dao placed three bowls of fried rice on a tray. "I'll go deliver the food to them and chat with her for a bit while I'm at it." With that, he ran out of the yard, wanting to test whether Yao Duo was truly the queen.
Xue Beifan quickly ate the remaining half bowl of rice, "Hey, wait for me!"
Xiao Dao had just excitedly stepped out of the courtyard and through the corridor when he ran into two people coming from the opposite direction.
Xiao Dao sighed inwardly and glanced at Fang Tongli and Qin Ke, who were blocking his way. The expressions on their faces were quite distasteful. Fang Tongli was looking at him with ill intent, while Qin Ke's eyes were filled with hatred.
Xiao Dao ignored them and continued walking forward. Just as he passed by them, Qin Ke suddenly tripped over him.
Xiao Dao relies on three skills to navigate the world: quick wit, quick reflexes, and excellent agility. Could she possibly trip him up?!
The trip didn't hurt Xiaodao at all. With a few nimble leaps, she drew a beautiful arc in the air like a neon light and landed at the very end of the corridor.
Fang Tongli and Qin Ke were both surprised—they originally thought she was just a girl with no special abilities, but they didn't expect her to have such superb lightness skills!
Xiao Dao raised an eyebrow smugly at the two dumbfounded people behind her. Not a drop of rice or soup spilled from the tray, and she continued walking forward as if nothing had happened. Surprisingly, Xiao Dao's trick worked! Fang Tongli and Qin Ke were momentarily stunned—what kind of incredible lightness skill was this?!
With her two short, curly braids swaying, Xiao Dao skipped and hopped through the corridor and into the backyard, where she saw Xue Beifan waiting there with his arms crossed and a smile in his eyes.
Xiao Dao walked past him smugly, and Xue Beifan gently took her tray, saying, "You really can't stump me."
"That's nothing, it's no big deal." Xiao Dao pushed open the door and told Chong Hua to go have dinner with Xiao Yue, while he and Xue Bei Fan took care of Yao Duo.
Yao Duo was still sitting on the bed, angry. When Xiao Dao brought her a bowl of fried rice with eggs, she was slightly puzzled. "What's this?"
Xiao Dao smiled, pursing her lips—"See! She doesn't even know what fried rice is. She's definitely not from an ordinary family."
"It's something you can't get in the palace."
"Cough cough..." Yao Duo was about to praise how delicious her food was when Xiao Dao's words made her choke, and she coughed while pounding her chest.
Xiao Dao squinted at her, and sure enough!
Just as he was about to get straight to the point, Xue Beifan suddenly shushed him, signaling to Xiao Dao—someone was there!
Xiao Dao frowned. "Three people from the Beihai Sect?"
Xue Beifan shook his head. "Your kung fu is even better."
At that moment, Yao Duo put down her bowl and grabbed Xiao Dao's sleeve, exclaiming, "They're coming!"

As soon as Duo finished speaking, Xiao Dao heard Xiao Yue's voice coming from the courtyard, "Who goes there!"
Then came the sound of weapons clashing – a fight had broken out.
Xiao Dao quickly opened the door and saw Xiao Yue fighting with two men in black in the courtyard. Xiao Dao wanted to help, but Xue Beifan gently stopped her, signaling her to take care of Yao Duo.
He took a step forward to help, and at that moment, the three members of the Beihai Sect seemed to have been attracted by the sounds of fighting. They walked to the courtyard gate and came face to face with Xue Beifan.
Xiao Dao noticed that Xue Beifan, who was about to make a move, hesitated slightly, and a thought struck him... Strange!
"Xiaoyue".
Just then, someone called out to Xiaoyue. Xiaoyue stepped aside, making way for Chonghua, who then descended from the courtyard wall to deal with the two men in black. She seemed to give Xue Beifan a wink, which reassured him, and he waited patiently to the side.
Xiao Dao clicked his tongue twice, and asked Xue Beifan with some admiration, "Chonghua's kung fu is that good? I thought he could only recite books."
Xue Beifan looked at Xiaodao with admiration.
Xiaoyue also came to Xiaodao's side, "Chonghua is the master of Chonghua Tower, and his kung fu is no less than that of the young master."
Xiao Dao's heart skipped a beat again—Oh my? Shen Xinghai's kung fu is about the same as Chonghua's? Immediately, the scene of the two of them fighting fiercely over Xiaoyue flashed through his mind.
Xue Beifan glanced at her, shook his head, and said calmly, "Impossible."
Xiao Dao looked up at him, "What's impossible?"
Xue Beifan scoffed, "If you wanted to snatch it, you would have done it long ago. Chonghua is an idiot."
