Morty believed that he was quite shameless. Lucas was still a kid, but he thought about the honey trap.
Thinking about the risks that his daughter would take when coming over, he was pretty worried.
However, when he was hesitating, he was taken aback suddenly.
He was worried about Michele’s safety, but how about Samuel and Nicole? Weren’t they concerned
about Lucas and Joseph? However, they still sent over their children without any hesitation.
Morty suddenly blushed.
He had always thought of himself as an outstanding man. However, compared to Samuel, he always
believed that he was born into a better family. Right now, he even couldn’t compare to a woman. What
right or condition did he have to feel so superior?
Suddenly, Morty realized something. He immediately posted his apology through his personal Twitter
account and called Michele right away, asking her to come over.
Seeing Morty’s apology, Aron was so angry that he almost fainted. It was just like making everything
open to the public and let them know what they had done to Nicole and Night Elf Empire. Besides,
Night Elf Empire had been exposed. Even if Aron wanted to deal with it in secret, it would be
impossible.
“This bastard! He even wants to ask Michele to go there! Is he out of his mind?” Aron cursed.
Michele was still preparing for setting off, but Yasmeen had arrived at the quarantine area.
Lucas was taken aback when seeing her.
“What are you doing here?” he asked.
“To help you. Daddy said the epidemic here is quite serious, and the firewall has been under attack all
the time. During the epidemic, seldom people dared to come over. Even if the hackers wanted to help,
you wouldn’t let them get involved because it’s about national security. I volunteered to come here to
help you. In the past years, I’ve been studying network technologies. Although I’m not as genius like
you, I should make the firewall last longer. Besides, Daisy said she would also help me from Country Z
if I couldn’t make it. You know Daisy is suffering from asthma, so she couldn’t get here. Right now, our
countries are in good terms and counting on each other. We could share any confidential information,”
said Yasmeen indifferently.
However, Lucas suddenly stood up from his chair.
“Are you a fool? Don’t you know it is an epidemic area here? Don’t you know your identity currently? If
you got infected, how would you go back to your country? You don’t have a small family. There are tens
of thousands of citizens in your country behind you. Yasmeen Shaw, can you be smarter?”
When Morty came here, Lucas didn’t even move. But now, he stood up in anger. Others couldn’t help
but glance at Yasmeen.
They believed this girl must be pretty special to Lucas.
Yasmeen’s eyes were darkened for a moment. She took a look at Lucas and turned away.
Lucas frowned profoundly and couldn’t help but raise his voice when speaking, “Where are you going?
Can’t you be more patient? I can’t scold you, can I?”
“I’m already here. What’s the use for you to be so angry?”
Compared to the girl a few years ago, Yasmeen was so calm as if she had changed to another person.
Her calmness and patience made Lucas frown more deeply.
Lucas believed this girl had become less adorable than when she was little.
When she was little, Yasmeen would do and say anything at will. Although she was overbearing, she
could be read like an open book. However, she looked as if she was wearing a mask, which had hidden
her real nature. Lucas didn’t like the way she had changed.
She was a princess of a country. She didn’t need to aggrieve herself in this way.
“Come with me!”
Lucas pushed his laptop away and let others take over what he was doing for the time being. He
rapidly took Yasmeen’s hand and said, “I can tell you haven’t eaten anything yet. You should have
something before working. You know what? Even if you haven’t been infected, you need a fourteen-day
quarantine after going back. By then, you’ll be locked up in a house in which you will eat, drink, use the
bathroom, and sleep. Do you think you’ll feel bored or not?”
Yasmeen listened to him, her mouth corners twitching.
She wondered how much this bad boy hated her so that he had spoken such words to scare her. He
knew that she was afraid of being alone and fond of the crowd. Since he didn’t like the lively
atmosphere, she had been suppressing her character right now. However, she didn’t expect that he
wasn’t pleased either.
Lucas didn’t care what was in Yasmeen’s mind. He pulled her into his room, which startled Yasmeen.
“Aren’t we going to eat something?”
“Wait!”
Lucas released her hand. Then he took off his coat, went to the bathroom to sterilize his hands with the
alcohol, came out, and got busy in the kitchen.
Yasmeen widened her eyes.
She wondered if he was cooking something for her.
She didn’t expect that Lucas could cook.
Suddenly, she grinned.
After five minutes, Lucas came out while holding a bowl of noodle soup. He put it in front of Yasmeen
and said, “Eat it. The resource is limited during the epidemic period. Just make do with it.”
Yasmeen realized that she had overthought.
Then she saw the instant noodles.
That was the food that he wanted her to eat, wasn’t it?
Yasmeen cast him a speechless glance. Then she went to the kitchen. Opening the fridge, she saw not
many ingredients in the refrigerator, but she saw eggs, spinach, and dried noodles.
She washed her hands, stepped on the stool, washed vegetables, cut them, and put the oil into the pot
in one go.
Lucas had been standing at the door of the kitchen. Looking at how skillful Yasmeen was when she
was cooking, he was slightly taken aback. Then a trace of complicated emotion flashed through his
eyes.
He realized that she had changed a lot indeed.
Lucas wondered why he was so idle. He kept standing at the door while watching Yasmeen make two
bowls of noodle soup. He wasn’t hungry earlier, but now he was.
“This is food. One for each. You can’t steal mine!”
Yasmeen put the two bowls in front and was about to stand up. However, Lucas grabbed her wrist.
“What happened here?” he asked.
“It’s alright. It was burned by the oil. It’ll recover in two days.”
Yasmeen’s skin was like Ashley’s. A tiny wound would be quite apparent.
Lucas frowned more deeply. Suddenly, he said, “Is it easy to learn cooking?”
“Ehn?”
Yasmeen didn’t get it, so she looked at Lucas in a daze.
Lucas suddenly let go of her and handed her the first-aid kit. He said, “Apply some medicine. You can’t
let it be infected.”
“It’s alright.”
Yasmeen shook her hand carelessly as if she was back to the tomboy she used to be.
“Do it!”
Lucas’s voice became more solemn.
Yasmeen wondered why he got angry again.
Speechlessly, she took out the Iodophor and applied it to her wound. Lucas looked at her wound
thoughtfully and took a look at the steamed noodles. Suddenly, he made a decision.
