How come this mage can fight better than a warrior?

After finishing his meal, Long Dong gently put down his bowl and chopsticks, looked expectantly at Lin Xiaocha who was sitting opposite him, and asked cautiously, "Sister Xiaocha, do you know anything about my parents?"

However, Lin Xiaocha was still worried about the incident that happened while cooking. She didn't take Long Dong's question to heart and just nodded absentmindedly. Seeing that Lin Xiaocha didn't seem to hear his question clearly, Long Dong had to raise his voice and repeat it again.

At this time, Lin Xiaocha came back to her senses as if she had just woken up from a dream. She raised her eyebrows, looked at Long Dong with a smile and said, "I have heard some unreliable news. But... do you really want to hear it?"

When Long Dong heard this, his eyes lit up instantly and he nodded hurriedly, "Ah? Of course I do! Sister Xiaocha, tell me about it!"

Seeing this, Lin Xiaocha raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and said slowly: "Longdong, you don't think I will tell you so easily, do you? There is no free lunch in the world!"

Long Dong was stunned at first, then he reacted and said quickly: "Hey, Sister Xiaocha, I've already treated you to a meal! Isn't that enough?"

Lin Xiaocha rolled her eyes and snorted disdainfully: "Tsk! You want to get rid of me with such a small favor? That's too insincere!"

Long Dong was getting a little anxious. He clasped his hands together and pleaded pitifully, "Sister Xiaocha, please, just tell me, okay? As long as it's a reasonable request, I will definitely agree to it!"

Lin Xiaocha rolled her eyes, stretched out a finger and shook it, and began to propose conditions: "Okay, since you are so sincere, I will reluctantly agree to it. First of all, from today on, you have to be responsible for cooking delicious meals for me every day!"

Long Dong didn't expect Lin Xiaocha to make such a request right away. He opened his mouth wide and was about to refute, but Lin Xiaocha raised her hand to stop him. She continued calmly, "Don't rush to refuse. This is just the first condition. There is also a second one..."

Before she finished speaking, Long Dong could no longer suppress his inner panic and interrupted Lin Xiaocha without hesitation: "Sister Xiaocha, forget it, forget it, you'd better stop talking! I really can't afford these conditions!" As he said that, Long Dong shook his head helplessly, secretly complaining in his heart.

Lin Xiaocha blinked her bright eyes, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said tentatively: "Then...then I can lower my requirements a bit, right?"

Long Dong crossed his arms, raised his eyebrows, and responded with interest: "Oh? Tell me about it!"

Lin Xiaocha coughed lightly, cleared her throat, and slowly said, "How about this, you come to be my servant for ten years and serve me wholeheartedly, how about that?"

Hearing this, Long Dong's face, which was originally slightly smiling, suddenly darkened, and he thought to himself that this woman was really pushing her too far. He turned his head away and didn't want to talk to Lin Xiaocha anymore.

However, Lin Xiaocha didn't seem to notice Long Dong's displeasure. Instead, she continued to ask, "Oh, ten years is too long? Then one year! One year shouldn't be too much!"

Long Dong was already a little impatient at this time. He frowned and replied stiffly: "Not even for a day! Sister Xiaocha, if you really don't want to tell me, then forget it!"

At this moment, Lin Xiaocha seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly changed the subject and asked curiously: "By the way, Long Dong, do you have a girlfriend now?"

Long Dong blurted out without thinking: "No!"

After hearing what Long Dong had in his mind, he quickly reminded him, "Stupid, you have a girlfriend! Your girlfriend's name is Wang Tingting!"

After being reminded by Zheng, Long Dong suddenly changed his words as if awakened from a dream: "Yes! I have a girlfriend!"

After Lin Xiaocha heard Long Dong's words, a puzzled look immediately appeared on her delicate face. She stared at Long Dong with her big watery eyes and asked impatiently: "Long Dong, do you have a girlfriend? Why do you sound so casual?"

Long Dong scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed. He hesitantly explained to Lin Xiaocha, "Yes, yes! Her name is Wang Tingting."

Hearing this, Lin Xiaocha's eyes, which were originally full of expectation, dimmed instantly, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of loss. She responded softly: "Oh, so that's the case, okay then..." Her voice sounded a little listless.

At this time, Long Dong looked at Lin Xiaocha curiously and asked, "Sister Xiaocha, why do you suddenly ask this question? Is there any special reason?"

At this time, Lin Xiaocha seemed to have no mood to continue talking with Long Dong. She just replied lightly: "Nothing, Long Dong, I have something else to do, so I'll go back first!" After that, she turned around and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Long Dong hurriedly called out to Lin Xiaocha: "Sister Xiaocha, wait a minute, don't leave in a hurry! You haven't told me the news about my parents yet!"

However, Lin Xiaocha flew away without even looking back. Long Dong stood there, looking at the direction where Lin Xiaocha left, looking at a loss.

Long Dong thought to himself, "Sister Xiaocha, what's going on? I feel like she's a little absent-minded! Did I make her unhappy?"

Zheng asked, "Longdong, if Lin Xiaocha pursues you, what will you do?"

Hearing this, Long Dong couldn't help but widen his eyes and replied in surprise: "Zheng, you don't mean to say that Lin Xiaocha is interested in me? How is this possible! Don't be ridiculous!"

Zheng shrugged and said with a smile: "Haha, maybe it's just my guess! But looking at her attitude and behavior towards you recently, it does make people a little suspicious!"

Long Dong shook his head and sighed helplessly: "Forget it! Don't think about these things! Anyway, I can't figure it out. I'll go out and find out about my parents!"

After packing everything up, Long Dong continued to go out to gather information.
