Chapter 568 -265: Stepfather, You’ve Finally Returned! _2
While Kana had just fallen asleep, Ye Fan opened his eyes.
He shook his head helplessly as he looked at the sleeping Kana.
This woman, really knows how to slack off.
It wasn’t even the middle of the night yet, and she was already tired.
She fell asleep just by leaning against a rock.
She’s incredibly tough!
Ye Fan didn’t wake Kana up; since she was tired, let her sleep.
Anyway, it was his duty to stand guard.
…Before they knew it, it was time to return to the city, and Ye Fan and Kana could only rush back to the city disappointedly.
They hadn’t found any traces of demons and didn’t know if other groups had encountered any.
Of course, the journey back was much quicker than the journey there.
When they reached the city gates, they saw other teams were also returning.
It seemed that none had found traces of demons.
Now, they could only prepare for the upcoming black hole.
In a few days, the black hole would open again.
They needed to be ready for everything.
No doubt, the demons this time would be tougher than the last.
After a few people went to report their findings, Ye Fan returned alone to his small courtyard.
As he walked through the entrance, he heard hurried footsteps.
He knew who it was just by the sound of the footsteps.
“Foster father, you’re finally back, you’ve been gone for seven and a half days. I’ve been counting the days, waiting for you to return. You’re finally back. I really missed you. I thought I was abandoned once again,” Guangyao said, clinging to Ye Fan’s leg.
His little face looked pitiful.
Truly, he thought he might be left behind once again.
He had heard many rumors about how perilous this mission was.
Searching for traces of demons could lead to no return, and there were chances of injury; hearing all this scared him terribly.
But other than counting the days and worrying in his heart, there was really nothing else he could do.
Indeed, he was very worried, afraid of being alone once more.
“Silly child, isn’t your foster father back now? Don’t worry, I’m strong, those demons can’t hurt me,” Ye Fan comforted Guangyao with affection.
This child, he felt extremely tender towards him.
Just look, his little face is so worried, his eyes are red, as if he’s about to cry.
“Mm-hmm, foster father is the strongest, everything will be okay. Foster father, promise me, please be careful and never leave me behind,” Guangyao said, looking up at Ye Fan, his little face full of concern.
“Don’t worry, foster father won’t leave you behind,” Ye Fan reassured him.
The child really had suffered a lot.
Such worry for a person shows a lack of security in his heart.
“Mm-hmm, foster father, you must be hungry. I’ll go cook for you!” With that, the little guy let go of Ye Fan and ran towards the kitchen.
These past few days outside the city, his foster father must not have had good food or drink and must have had a hard and tiring time.
So, he wanted to make something delicious for his foster father.
“I’ll help you!” Ye Fan said, watching Guangyao run into the kitchen, intending to help.
How could he possibly let a seven-year-old child wait on him!
That was definitely not okay.
After all, Ye Fan didn’t take in the child just to have someone cook for him.
“Foster father, you just got back, you go rest. I can do it on my own, trust me, I can handle this little task!” Guangyao stood at the kitchen doorway, his little face resolutely speaking to his foster father.
His foster father had just returned; how could he let him cook?
Besides, he was already seven years old and could take care of some of their living needs.
His foster father had helped him so much, and he wanted to relieve some of his burden, to do some things for him.
Of course, he was still young and couldn’t take on any real pressures or difficulties.
For now, all he could do was what was within his ability.
That was the right way.
And this was also a way to help his foster father, to give him a chance to rest a little.
Cooking was a simple task, and Guangyao was sure he could handle it.
Ye Fan looked at the resolute little face before him, and his eyes were brimming with tenderness.
This child, so young and yet so capable of caring for others, truly impressive!
The child has a good heart.
Ye Fan watched the firmness in the child’s demeanor and knew that he would not be much help.
“Alright then, stepfather will go rest for a bit. Remember to call me if you need anything!” Ye Fan raised his hand and ruffled Ye Guangyao’s little head, his eyes filled with affection.
This child was really charming!
‘Don’t worry, stepfather, it’s just cooking. I can handle it,’ the little guy confidently said with a smile.
“Ok then, thank you for your hard work!” Ye Fan gave a smile, turned around, and headed to his room.
Ye Guangyao watched his stepfather enter the room and then turned and headed into the kitchen to start the bustle of cooking.
Once back in his room, Ye Fan took off his jacket, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep within moments.
He slept exceptionally soundly.
And he slept like that for several hours…
Ye Fan was truly exhausted.
Ye Guangyao had finished preparing the meal and was just about to call Ye Fan to get up when Ye Fan opened his eyes and saw the little fellow entering his room.
“Stepfather, did I disturb you? I just wanted to call you for dinner,” Ye Guangyao said with some surprise.
As soon as he had approached, his stepfather had opened his eyes.
“No, I have slept enough, and I feel very rested. Let’s go have dinner, and I’ll see how your cooking turned out!” Ye Fan got up from the bed, ruffled Ye Guangyao’s little head, and said with a smile.’
The smell that wafted in seemed quite promising!
Delicious.
“The dishes you made, they smell like, seems to have chicken?” Ye Fan said with some doubt.
After all, preparing chicken could be complicated, could a seven-year-old child really manage to cook it?
But the aroma was very reminiscent!
“Stepfather, you guessed it right!” Ye Guangyao immediately beamed with a smile.
Today, he had made mushroom and chicken stew.
“You child, how did you do it, who taught you? This kind of complex dish shouldn’t be something a seven-year-old could cook?” Ye Fan remarked.
“Hehe, of course, I’m self-taught! No, no, I looked it up on my mobile phone,” the little guy spoke with pride.

The stepfather gave him the mobile phone, and he had used it earlier to check out recipes and cooking methods online.
How else would he possibly know how?
“You’re really clever!” Ye Fan praised with a laugh.
This child’s mind was quick.
Very good, very good!
“Hehe, stepfather, let’s hurry and eat before the food gets cold, it won’t taste as good then!” the little guy urged.
If the dishes got cold, it wouldn’t be nice for the stomach!
‘Alright!’ Ye Fan took Ye Guangyao’s hand, and they went out into the yard.
The little guy had already set up a small table with a bench, and laid out three dishes on the table.
One was stir-fried greens, one was spicy tofu, and the last was the mushroom and chicken stew.
Looking at them, they seemed quite impressive!
‘Dad, you sit down first. I’ll serve you some rice!’ the little guy said as he dashed into the kitchen.
Ye Fan watched the little guy’s retreating figure and smiled.
This child was really great!
Ye Fan felt very fortunate to have met this child.
It made his life here less lonely.
It seemed to become much warmer.
“Stepfather, time to eat!” the little guy came out with two bowls of rice, his smile especially bright.
“Take it easy,” Ye Fan said as he took the bowl.
“Alright, let’s start eating. Try the mushroom and chicken stew; I specifically made it for you to nourish your body. I know you’ve had a hard time these past few days, not eating or sleeping well outside the city!” the little fellow said with concern.
“It’s alright, that’s what a stepfather should do!” Ye Fan replied.
“Mm-hm, I know. I will be as strong as stepfather in the future and help you overcome difficulties together,” the little guy declared with certainty.
“Good, our Guangyao is growing up, ready to stand by my side and face challenges. But for now, let’s eat!” Ye Fan said with a smile.
“Mm-hm, stepfather, please eat plenty!” The little guy put a chicken leg into Ye Fan’s bowl.
