Full-time Anomaly Chapter 8

Early in the morning, the sky shone indistinctly and large waves of mist wafted through the air. The distant sky was yellow with faint accents of red, appearing somewhat like the smear of an oil color.

However, one side was still sky blue, equal to the beauty of a sapphire. It appeared to be the scenery of an ascending immortal.

Yan Tian lazily opened his eyes and looked at the time. It was 5:10. Turning his head towards the window, the sky was as peaceful as the face of a mirror, as if it could illuminate the entire earth. From time to time, birds flew across the sky in graceful arcs.

"Meng'er, where are you? Are you well? I really miss you." Yan Tian looked outside the window and said in a daze.

Yan Tian took out the company suit that was prepared for him yesterday and looked it over. He then took out the pure white shirt and put it on, "The size is just right. From today onwards, I'll be a bodyguard." Yan Tian looked at the clothes on his body and was quite satisfied.

Yan Tian had barely used a minute to complete what other people would waste tens of minutes on to such the extent that it would take several tens of minutes for them to finish washing up. He then looked at the time.

Discovering it was still early, Yan Tian thought of the beautiful Sun Yue, reckoning she was still sleeping, snoring sound asleep. Thinking of this, Yan Tian then walked into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for himself. Needless to say, his culinary talent was pretty good.

It was just that when he opened the refrigerator to take a look within, there was nothing left inside to eat. Sun Yue hadn't gone out to buy more food to eat before Yan Tian had left, since she did not feel like it. The food that Sun Yue had prepared yesterday was nothing more than just a bit of sustenance. How many days had pa.s.sed without there being anything to eat in the refrigerator? There were only about four or five bottles of ice-cold beer.

"Looks like I'll have to go out and buy some things, otherwise, what's gonna happen if that pretty girl gets hungry?" Yan Tian looked at Sun Yue's room door and said to himself aloud.

At daybreak, there was no one out on the street. In the far distance you could only see the early errand-running grandpas and grannies. At this time, many young people were still snoring in their sleep.

Yan Tian prepared to go the local food market to buy some things. He knew that at this time the vegetables ordered at the market would be at their freshest. Thinking of this, he soon moved towards the food market.

"Auntie, how much are are you selling these veggies for?" Yan Tian looked at the food market's fresh produce and asked the auntie.

"Young man, the young people of today are all pretty lazy, but it looks like you're rather hard working. One catty is ¥2.20." The auntie tidied up the vegetables while beaming at Yan Tian warmly.

"I would be sleeping too if I didn't have to go out and buy food. Could you pick the vegetables for me?" Yan Tian said somewhat embarra.s.singly.

"Good. Not bad, young man." The auntie still smiled towards Yan Tian and helped him choose vegetables.

The auntie put the vegetables on the scale and weighed it, "Altogether it's ¥2.30. Young man, gimme two and it'll be OK." The auntie said, then grabbed a bag and handed it over to Yan Tian.

"Thank you, auntie, you can't be so easy-going. I could've given you less." Yan Tian said, then took out ¥2.50 and put it on top of the table. Not waiting for the auntie to speak, he then turned around and left.

The auntie watched Yan Tian put the money on the table and laughed. Looking towards Yan Tian's leaving silhouette, she said aloud: "If my daughter was still around, you would be great……"

Yan Tian carried the vegetables in his hand and strolled around the other market stalls, buying some vegetables and millet, then returning home.

After he came home, Yan Tian then softly walked to the kitchen, preparing to make a sumptuous breakfast.

Twenty minutes later, Yan Tian cooked his breakfast, using plate to set his delicious food on the dining table.

"Oh, when did you get up? You even made breakfast?" Sun Yue happened to come out of her bedroom with her eyes bleary, looking at the delicious food on the table. Doubt was clear across her face.

"I did. I woke up early. Quickly wash up and eat. I called you to taste my work." Yan Tian looked at Sun Yue in the doorway quite pleased with himself.

"Oh!" Sun Yue said, then went to wash up.

Yan Tian walked into the kitchen and took out two bowls to hold his simmering congee to serve on the table.

With everything prepared, as soon as Sun Yue came out they could eat. Yan Tian patiently looked at the scenery outside the window while waiting for Sun Yue.

However, after Yan Tian had waited for ten minutes, he couldn't wait anymore. It had to be known it only took him nothing more than several tens of seconds to wash up. Yan Tian thought to himself that women were really quite troublesome.

"Hey, can you speed it up? I'm gonna starve to death soon." Yan Tian looked at the fine food and rushed Sun Yue.

"Alright, alright, I'm coming!" Sun Yue said, then walked over.

"Big Sis, do you know how slowly you wash your face? Sixteen minutes!"

"Oh my, this can be considered fast. A lot of people in comparison are still slower." Sun Yue looked at the food Yan Tian made and licked her lips.

"Alright, eat quickly, OK? It'll get cold fast." Yan Tian said, then ate great mouthfuls of food.

"Looks like your demeanor is pretty good." Sun Yue picked up her chopsticks as well and sampled a bit.

"Huh, Yan Tian, I didn't think your cooking skills would be so good. It's delicious!" How could Sun Yue expect that this sloppy-looking Yan Tian could make such delicious food.

"Hehe, how is it? I'll tell you, this can't be considered anything. I can make much more delicious food. Chicken, fish, duck; they're are all child's play. Have you eaten scorpion or centipede? My war buddies would fight over the fried scorpion and broth-steamed centipede I made in the past. They all said I could be the world's top gourmet master!"

"What? Scorpion? Centipede?" Once Sun Yue heard this, her hair immediately stiffened.

"Ah, hiccup. I've eaten it before. Hehe, There was no food that time." Yan Tian felt that he had frightened Sun Yue, laughing awkwardly.

"Yan Tian, what did you do before?" Sun Yue was quite curious about what Yan Tian did before.

"I, uhh, I don't know. I was going around here and there, hehe!" Yan Tian naturally couldn't foolishly say he was an a.s.sa.s.sin. Furthermore, he was a Grand Master a.s.sa.s.sin.

"What did you say when your comrades had no food?" Sun Yue wasn't dumb. Naturally, she didn't believe what Yan Tian said.

"Hiccup, for the past two years I served as a soldier. When I went for field training, there wasn't enough food, so I had to pick up those things to survive." Yan Tian was currently somewhat regretting what he had just said about scorpions and centipedes.

"Eating centipedes and scorpions, how sickening……" Sun Yue looked at the congee in her bowl and was somewhat unable to continue drinking it.

"Don't talk, c'mon, there's a lot of food. Look, you're so thin." Yan Tian knew that those things were not things people would eat, so he stopped talking.

"Ok." Sun Yue said, then lowered her head to drink the congee.

Breakfast was finished in about dozen minutes, then as Yan Tian prepared to tidy up the tableware, Sun Yue suddenly thought of something: "Eh, Yan Tian, I suddenly thought of something."

Yan Tian sorted the tableware while curiously looking at Sun Yue: "What thing?"

"Since you're cooking skill is so good, I'll leave it to you cook food later, alright!" Sun Yue said, then revealed an enchanting smile.

"Oh?" As Yan Tian who was in the middle of collecting the tableware heard Sun Yue's words, he suddenly stopped the movement of his hands and looked at Sun Yue in a daze.

Yan Tian thought to himself, Is this the way of the world? In those days abroad, what kind of power and authority did I have? Unexpectedly, after he returned home, he had to be a bodyguard for someone else. Now he had to serve other people food every day? Was this an international joke?

"How about it? Do you have questions? The food you make is really delicious." sun Yue pouted pitifully and looked at Yan Tian prettily.

Yan Tian looked at Sun Yue's pitiful and lovely eyes and was immediately bereft of any bad temper: "Nope, of course there's not problem. I quite willing to to serve such a beauty." Yan Tian thought to himself, if I'm not going to h.e.l.l, who is?

"Mmm, how obedient. I'll take away the tableware, OK!" Once Sun Yue heard Yan Tian answer, her mood was great. Her food problems later would finally be solved.

Yan Tian would naturally not dim-wittedly scramble over Sun Yue scrubbing the bowl. If someone helped him scrub the bowl, then he would get what he was looking for.

Yan Tian saw that it was still not yet seven, so he laid down on the sofa and watched some television. He waited until it was seven to put on his company-issued suit and looked in the mirror. The clothing size was a perfect fit.

"I'm gonna go to work, so don't miss me too much. Bye bye!" Yan Tian shouted to Sun Yue in the kitchen and prepared to leave.

"Hey, hold up, wait a second." Sun Yue heard that Yan Tian was gonna go work, then hurriedly ran out.

"What's up?"

"Oh my, you're quite ruggedly handsome in that suit." Sun Yue looked at the clothes Yan Tian was wearing and said admiringly.

"Hehe, don't go crazy over this bro. I am but a mere legend." Yan Tian heard Sun Yue's praise that he was handsome and was immediately beside himself with pleasure, even striking a pose!

"Cut it out, you're quite narcissistic. Where are you going to work? When did you go find a job?" Watching Yan Tian actions of adopting a pose, she was rendered speechless.

"The Liu Family Conglomerate. I found it just yesterday. How about that?" Yan Tian picked at his ear.
