I had to admit, Lu Wu had been getting somewhat overconfident lately.
After all, he had been on quite a roll recently. First, it took him only a month to go from craving Li Kai to having Li Kai crave him.
Then he elevated Little Skeleton's quality to Black Iron. Although it carried a 'pseudo' tag, it was still Black Iron quality.
Little Skeleton's quality had now reached or even exceeded the level of some students in advanced classes!
Achieving these two things in just a month, Lu Wu's tiny heart was indeed swelling with pride.
He even almost forgot that he started out as a total loser. Even when Little Skeleton, who had just advanced, was nearly squashed to pieces by Dudu's family's pig, Lu Wu was so distracted by Dudu's sudden weight loss that he forgot about it.
What totally brought him back to reality was a particularly trivial matter.
Wasn't Dudu staying at his house?
Li Ruyu was worried she might go hungry, so early in the morning, she sent Lu Wu out to buy breakfast for Dudu.
Normally, Li Ruyu rarely ordered Lu Wu around, but seeing Dudu so thin, she worried Dudu might be tricked away. She wanted to boost Dudu's impression of Lu Wu, so she sent him out early, creating the illusion that Lu Wu specifically bought breakfast for her.
Although Lu Wu didn't see the point in it and didn't think it would improve her impression of him—after all, this girl's affection for him was already maxed out—
Unless Lu Wu unlocked some new moves, her approval rating should not go up further.
But since Li Ruyu instructed him, Lu Wu went. As soon as he stepped out, he ran into Lin Jianying.
The two collided head-on. Lu Wu looked at the particularly alert goblin behind Lin Jianying, which seemed to have changed significantly from a month ago.
Lin Jianying also glanced at the Little Skeleton behind Lu Wu with a look of surprise on his face.
But Lin Jianying didn't dare to speak, and after nodding to Lu Wu, he lowered his head to leave, but Lu Wu stopped him.
He didn't really have anything to say to Lin Jianying, he just wanted to touch his goblin.
"Haven't seen you for over a month, your goblin is looking pretty buff!"
Saying that, Lu Wu patted the chest of the goblin, which wore a 'don't mess with me' look. The moment he patted it, Lu Wu's eyes squinted.
He had to admit, patting it carried a hint of the mindset of 'Thirty years of turmoil.'
Hmph, a month ago you ignored me, today I'll show you what it means to be out of your league.
But one pat showed Lu Wu what it meant to be out of his league for real.
...

...
Seeing this goblin's attributes, Lu Wu's previously swelling pride almost exploded.
He truly didn't expect that in just a month's time, Lin Jianying could train this goblin to such a state.
Damn it, if Dudu using hacks was one thing, could this guy be using hacks too?
Lu Wu couldn't understand, so his expression was a bit complex.
Lin Jianying saw Lu Wu touching his goblin with a face full of complex and sorrowful emotions, thinking Lu Wu was jealous of his goblin and angry about how he had abandoned him before, so he lowered his head again.
With a very faint voice, he said, "You know, I have my reasons to become a Professional Summoner, so I'm sorry."
After saying that, Lin Jianying ran off with the goblin.
Lu Wu only reacted after Lin Jianying had run off. As for what Lin Jianying had said? Sorry, he didn't notice. Even if he did, he wouldn't care.
Now, after being hit by the goblin, Lu Wu had only one thought: training! Crazy training! Starting today, he would train Little Skeleton like crazy!
As someone with hacks, how could he lose to these lucky guys?
Thinking this, Lu Wu turned to look at his silly and dazed Little Skeleton, his eyes filled with fighting spirit and determination!
After making up his mind, Lu Wu bought dozens of big buns and seven or eight cups of soy milk and went home.
As soon as he got home, he called Dudu over to eat quickly so they could start training afterward!
Hmm, as facts showed, Lu Wu was wrong!
He thought Dudu's affection for him was maxed out and that buying breakfast wouldn't increase it, but facts proved affection could indeed overflow!
This was the first time since Dudu turned twelve that she stayed at Lu Wu's house and ate breakfast bought by Lu Wu. Her eyes immediately turned red, and tears almost fell.
The cute look made Lu Wu's heart skip a beat!
The only flaw was that this girl ate a bit too much; she downed over ten big buns and two bottles of soy milk without any signs of stopping.
Seeing this, Lu Wu's face turned dark.
He had a strong premonition that if this girl kept eating like this, her stunning beauty wouldn't last long. Lu Wuke didn't want her to revert back.
"Stop eating! Stop eating!"
Lu Wu wanted to prevent this nightmare scenario from happening again.
Dudu listened to Lu Wu particularly well; when he told her to stop, she stopped. However, she couldn't help but glance at the buns, her eyes filled with longing, looking as pitiful as could be.
In the end, Lu Wu couldn't resist the pitiful look from the now slim Dudu and had to surrender.
"Alright, alright, eat up!"
He comforted himself, thinking that this girl had a Bonds Skill that could enhance her pig by eating, so she shouldn't get fat with such a skill, right?
Hmm, theoretically, yes, but what was this uneasy feeling in his heart?
In the end, Lu Wu watched as this girl ate four or fifty buns all by herself.
This was under the condition that she showed some restraint since Lu Wu was watching her, and she only ate until she was half-full; her appetite had more than doubled compared to before.
Also, perhaps it was Lu Wu's psychological effect, but he felt that after this breakfast, the girl's entire figure seemed plumper.
"Illusion, definitely an illusion!
She has a Bonds Skill, she can't possibly get fat!"
After forcibly suppressing the terrifying thought that this girl might get fat again, Lu Wu grabbed her hand and said, "Let's go! Time to train!"
On the side, Li Ruyu watched Lu Wu and Dudu leave hand in hand, a motherly smile plastered on her face.
However, the smile also carried a bit of worry!
"Indeed, the girl is too pretty; it's a bit concerning. No, I must make more delicious food this afternoon!
I have to help Dudu put on some weight again!"
Saying that, Li Ruyu got busy with preparing lunch.
