"I have to go back to the manor to find my master. Take good care of Bai's shop, and you are not allowed to report to him about me."

Mu Qiu shouted slowly, but he couldn't communicate with Fang Weixuan as he did with others.

"Mu Qiu, are you hungry? Xiaobai left many dishes. I can cook you some." Fang Weixuan didn't dare to mistreat Mu Qiu.

He had seen Mu Qiu before, and the latter was always adorable in front of Gu Bai. Somehow, he was scared when he faced Mu Qiu.

Realizing Fang Weixuan had no idea of what Mu Qiu just said, the latter was annoyed.

On second thought, he remembered what Gu Bai had said about being a good boy, so he decided to spare Fang Weixuan this time.

"I'm leaving, idiot."

Mu Qiu gave up on talking to Fang Weixuan, putting the food into his pack similarly, and then left with it.

He acted so smoothly as if he had done it many times before, which stunned Fang Weixuan. When Fang Weixuan finally came back to his senses, Mu Qiu had run away.

"Mu Qiu, where are you going?" Fang Weixuan chased after him.

If he lost Mu Qiu, would Xiaobai drive him away?

If that happened, Fang Weixuan would be a chef who suffered the worst in the empire. His name would be recorded in history for being expelled by his master after he had a master for half a day.

However, after a while, Fang Weixuan didn't catch up with Mu Qiu but was left behind at a longer distance.

"Mu Qiu is a small buddy. How come he moves so fast? I'm exhausted." Fang Weixuan grumped as he panted while running.

He had to keep focus because he had to keep Mu Qiu within his eyesight. Otherwise, he wouldn't know where to find him.

Fang Weixuan felt like he had used up his energy by now. Even if he was A-level on physical strength, he lost to a baby animal today.

Even if he didn't practice frequently but spent more time on cooking, it was still humiliating!

Thinking of this, Fang Weixuan convinced himself to move faster and finally saw Mu Qiu again before he lost him.

He didn't stop until he reached a familiar manor, where Mu Qiu sneaked in as if he had done it frequently before.

"Master Weixuan?" The guard was surprised to see Fang Weixuan panting in front of the gate.

He had never seen Fang Weixuan like this before because the latter always dressed nicely and acted elegantly.

Fang Weixuan noticed where he was when he saw a familiar person standing in front of him.

He then looked around. He didn't pay attention to the environment and the direction but focused on getting Mu Qiu back before. But now, he realized he had arrived at Jun Molin's manor.

Why did Mu Qiu come here?

"Did you see a silver beast who had a pack bigger than his head? Did he run into the manor?" asked Fang Weixuan directly.

The guard nodded. The marshal's companion animal had been coming back here every day for a period, so he had a new habit of coming here and patrolling around every day. Even if Yin Feng didn't come back for several days, he still came over a few times a day.

Only he didn't expect to see Yin Feng and Master Weixuan who followed afterward today.

"Show me the way and find him," said Fang Weixuan.

"Okay," the guard said. Although he didn't know why Master Weixuan was here, he knew that the latter used to chase after Yin Feng, trying to touch his fur.

Since Yin Feng was an adult beast before, Fang Weixuan had never made it.

Did Master Weixuan think he could fulfill his wish now that Yin Feng had become much smaller?

If he thought so, he might be disappointed. The guard thought a lot but didn't show his emotions on his face, just like his marshal.

As they walked in, Fang Weixuan was full of doubts.

Why would Mu Qiu come here? Also, it looked like it was not the first time Mu Qiu came here.

Fang Weixuan couldn't figure out the answer. Perhaps his brother was right about him using all his wisdom on cooking.

"Does Mu Qiu know my cousin, may I ask?" asked Fang Weixuan.

The guard didn't get it. "Mu Qiu?"

Who was Mu Qiu?

"I mean the silver beast," explained Fang Weixuan. It was the only reasonable explanation he could think of.

"Are you talking about the marshal's companion animal, Yin Feng?"

"What? Yin Feng? Do you mean Mu Qiu is Yin Feng, my cousin's companion animal?"

Fang Weixuan didn't expect such an answer. He was so shocked that he didn't realize how he got into the living room.

How was that possible? He watched Xiaobai take Mu Qiu from M95 Planet. How come Mu Qiu become Jun Molin's companion animal?

Besides, wasn't Yin Feng an imposing giant wolf? Although Mu Qiu was also silver, he was just a wolfie.

What was going on?

Fang Weixuan felt like he had entered a large maze, yet he had no idea where he had gone wrong.

"Xuan? Are you here to see your cousin? Come here," Fang Mengshu greeted Fang Weixuan as soon as she saw him.

Ever since Jun Molin was awake, Fang Mengshu was always in a good mood, smiling at anyone she met.

"Auntie, what happened to my cousin's companion animal?" Fang Weixuan decided to ask, knowing that he wouldn't find the answer by himself.

He didn't want to waste time guessing.

"Did you see Yin Feng?" Fang Mengshu led him to the sofa and got seated, telling him about how Yin Feng became a baby monster while Jun Molin fell into a coma. Yin Feng turned smaller so that he could save more strength and energy for future recovery.

The outsiders, including the relatives except for Fang Ruichen, weren't allowed to know any of this because it was as confidential as the fact that Jun Molin went into a coma.

Now that Jun Molin had woken up, and he was getting better even if there were still risks, Fang Mengshu shared the secrets with the relatives so that they wouldn't be so worried.

"So Mu Qiu is really Yin Feng. I can't believe I didn't recognize him." Fang Weixuan was astonished, murmuring in a low voice. He even wanted to cry out.

Was he so stupid? There were times that he thought Mu Qiu was similar to Yin Feng, but the fact never occurred to him.

"Mu Qiu? Are you saying Yin Feng is called Mu Qiu for the time being? That sounds cute. Do you have any idea who he has been with?" Fang Mengshu was interested in the name, knowing he was named by someone else.

She recalled how Yin Feng brought food to the manor and then went back to his owner's place later. The food was so good that she always felt in good spirits after eating it.

She was curious about what kind of person Yin Feng stayed with willingly.

Fang Weixuan struggled for a while, hesitating whether he should tell her about Gu Bai. But on second thought, he remembered that Mu Qiu was Yin Feng, Jun Molin's companion animal. That was to say, whether Gu Bai and Jun Molin knew each other or not, they were destined to meet each other sooner or later.

Furthermore, the person who asked him was the empress of the empire. She didn't have to ask him about this if she wanted answers.

She only asked because she respected Xiaobai.

In that case, Fang Weixuan didn't struggle but told her how he met Xiaobai and ran into Mu Qiu on M95 Planet.

"Master Xiaobai is a brilliant chef. Have you heard of 'the Genius Boy', the one who participated in the Five-Star Chef Certificate test? That's him!" Fang Weixuan was so excited to tell Gu Bai's stories as if he was boasting himself.

"He is 'the Genius Boy'?" Fang Mengshu was shocked.

Everyone in the empire knew about the test. Fang Mengshu was no exception even if she didn't care much about such things. She was surprised to find out that "the Genius Boy" was actually Yin Feng's new owner.

No wonder Yin Feng wasn't willing to come back. He stayed because the dishes were so good.

Fang Mengshu couldn't help swallowing when she thought of the dishes she had before. She might make the same choice if she could have the dishes every day.

"So, you mentioned that Xiaobai is opening a branch on the Central Star later?"

"Yes, we are preparing for the opening ceremony. Today is his first day at university. We'll open the first branch of 'Blue Star Restaurant' this weekend."

Speaking of the restaurant, Fang Weixuan had more to share, especially about the chaffy dish.

They would make the chaffy dish on the opening day in the branch, just like how they did it on M95 Planet.

Moreover, Gu Bai had decided to make it a tradition in every branch because it was both convenient and delicious.

"How do you like the chaffy dish?" Fang Mengshu was attracted by how Fang Weixuan described the dish, picturing it in her mind wildly.

"It tasted so good! The best I've ever eaten! It's easy to make. I'll get you some additives from Master Xiaobai on the opening day so that you can try the same later." Fang Weixuan couldn't wait to eat it as he mentioned it.

He only ate once after bringing the additives back home because his parents and his brother took the rest after they tried it.

That was way too much!

If he had known the result, he wouldn't have shared it with any of them. He made the dish for them, considering they were his family, but they didn't hesitate to take the rest without concerning him.

Did they really share the same blood?!
