Chapter 38 The wife who runs away from home is always the wife
"The time of studying always ends quickly..."
This was the first thing Liu Mengchao thought of when he saw Xiu Taga again. But after seeing the expression on Xiu Taga's face, the corners of Liu Mengchao's mouth had already raised. After all... this man's expression was...
It seemed to Liu Mengchao that something was wrong.
No, not only is there something wrong, but it should be said that it is an expression filled with anxiety and jealousy, constantly mixed together. This expression can be as weird or weird as it wants.
"I really didn't expect that you could concentrate on studying until now..." Xiu Taga touched his head sheepishly, with a forced smile on his face, "But..."
"Wait a minute."
Liu Mengchao grinned, but before he could fix it, Tajia interrupted the man directly after finishing speaking. Liu Mengchao was seen smiling with a playful expression on his face.
"Your home is not small. I think it can be accommodated by one person, right?" Liu Mengchao said as he pushed the two Edward brothers outside.
"I didn't book a room in the hotel, so let me stay here tonight?"
Live here?
Edward glanced at Liu Mengchao doubtfully, and then looked at the book in Liu Mengchao's hand.
"Detailed Explanation of Advanced Alchemy"?
This should be a book that can only be read briefly after being exposed to alchemy for at least three years, right? How could Liu Mengchao read it so quickly? Could it be that...
A feeling of joy suddenly jumped into Edward's heart. Although he had some difficulties with Liu Mengchao, Edward could still vaguely sense that Liu Mengchao was not a bad person.
"Has your memory begun to recover, Liu Mengchao?"
"memory?"
Liu Mengchao curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled subconsciously. After all, his words were just to hide his ignorance of the common sense of the world. Did he really not expect that everyone seemed to be very interested in his question?
strangeness……
Should I say that my memory has been restored? But if I really say that, I'm afraid my curiosity will not be satisfied.
Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao shook his head slightly. He stretched out his index finger and tapped his head.
"Although the memory in my brain has not been restored, it seems that I have already learned this knowledge once, so when I learn it again, the progress is surprisingly fast. How can I put it... I think that I can probably not forget it.
Describe my current state?"
"It's amazing! You can actually remember it with a photograph!?"
Edward's eyes almost popped out. Although he was very confident in his concentration, he still hadn't upgraded to the level of Liu Mengchao's photographic memory!
Really... really a genius...
Xiu Taga looked at Liu Mengchao with blank eyes, his eyes filled with the word "frustration". In other words, this old man who looks like a loser in life has finally accepted the reality?
Liu Mengchao squinted his eyes and looked at the expression on Xiu Taga's face, and smiled.
"Anyway, if I hadn't revised Mr. Taggar's books today, I'm afraid I would still be like an idiot, right?"
No... He looks like an idiot there... Xiu. Taga's heart is about to explode. Today, I clearly gave Liu Mengchao "Elementary Alchemy Analysis" at the beginning, which is a basic reading book equivalent to the first grade of elementary school.
!But now... Liu Mengchao is holding a copy of "Advanced Alchemy"
Solution! This, this, this... If I insist on evaluating this, it should be said that a person has just taken a first-grade elementary school mathematics class in the morning. Although his understanding ability is very high,... but no matter what, it is impossible to start in the afternoon.
It looks like Calculus is here! And he still looks like he’s doing everything with ease?
"Have you finished reading this book, Liu Mengchao?"
Edward didn't notice Xiu Taga's expression at all. He and Alphonse were walking outside with Second Lieutenant Xiabu while turning back to talk to Liu Mengchao.
“The progress is very fast!”
"Yeah. I barely got a rough idea. It doesn't look as difficult as I thought." Liu Mengchao smiled and nodded, but he didn't know that every time he nodded, Xiu Taga's fragile heart would be affected.
Piece after piece was broken.
Completely... unimaginable!
It wasn't until Brother Edward left his home that Hugh Targa recovered from the shock.
"It's amazing..."
Xiu Taga looked at Liu Mengchao and said with sincere admiration.
"No, in contrast, I'm still more concerned about when we can have dinner. After all, this will trouble you!"
Liu Mengchao waved his hand and said with a smile.
————————————————————————————
A veal steak cooked to medium rare and a portion of cream stew per person. This was Liu Mengchao's dinner at Xiutaga. Liu Mengchao, who was sitting at the dining table, had a smile on his face and picked up the silver-white stew.
With a small spoon, I scooped out a mouthful of cream stew.
"It tastes pretty good." Liu Mengchao smiled and said to Xiu Taga, "I originally thought that since you were single, your cooking wouldn't be very delicious. I really didn't expect that the food you cook would taste so good."
"If so..."
Xiu Tajia looked at his daughter dotingly, then raised his head and looked at Liu Mengchao.
"After all, I am still a man with a daughter. I can't say anything to wrong my daughter." His face was full of a satisfied smile, which even looked a little dazzling in Liu Mengchao's eyes.
"That's right."
Liu Mengchao watched the little girl finish the rice in the bowl, then blankly turned the bowl upside down and raised it above her head.
"There's nothing left! Dad!"
Nina said to Xiu Taga extremely seriously.
"Nina is so good!"
Xiu Taga had a happy expression on his face.
Looking at this man's expression, Liu Mengchao couldn't help but narrow his eyes. Although this man was full of jealousy and anxiety, he didn't look like an unfit father.
"Speaking of which, your home is so chaotic that your wife doesn't even want to come back?"
"Sorry..." Xiu Taga showed an embarrassed look on his face, "Because my wife ran away from home, no one has been cleaning the house."
"Running away from home!?" Liu Mengchao lowered his eyes and looked at Xiu Taga with his peripheral vision and asked slowly, "Although I know it is very rude, but it is inconvenient for me to ask the reason? After all, there is such a person
My lovely daughter, what mother is willing to leave such a home?"
"The reason... I'm afraid it's because I was a failed alchemist at that time, right?"
oh?
