《Jenlisa | Guide To Raising The Sick Villain》38
Advertisement
Jennie knew that Lisa was very dependent on her now, but Uncle Chen’s words sounded a little weird. Despite this, Jennie didn’t think much of it.
Uncle Chen admitted frankly that he partly did this to help her, but he also really needed Jennie’s help. So Jennie felt more convinced.
Jennie went upstairs to pack her things and sighed, including food and housing, there was good food and good accommodation, why not go.
Alas, I’m so realistic.
Jennie didn’t have a lot of things, she bought some clothes and books, and soon came down. While she was waiting for the car to start she began casually chatting with Uncle Chen .
There were some things that Uncle Chen wouldn’t say when Lisa was present, but now that Lisa wasn’t here, Uncle Chen had nothing stopping. So he asked about her family situation.
Uncle Chen asked her if her parents would be anxious if she didn’t go home. Jennie didn’t have the need to hide it. From the perspective of a bystander, she talked about the people in Kim’s family. Jennie felt that she had a good mentality.
Uncle Chen glanced at the girl with a faint expression in the rearview mirror, and thought that this child was indeed much more mature than the average child of her age.
Lisa had difficulty making friends with his peers because of his AS. At the beginning, Uncle Chen thought that if one day Lisa had a close friend, that friend would be a bit older than Lisa. But if he or she was a peer, that person would also be more mature than his or her peers, because then they would have more patience in order to tolerate Lisa’s temper. It would also allow them to go through the trouble of getting past his indifference, and slowly understand him.
Uncle Chen watched Lisa grow up, from the indifference and estrangement a few years ago, until now when he slowly began to change bit by bit. No one would know or understand the pure joy in Uncle Chen’s heart when he saw this development.
Although Lisa was still expressionless, he gradually learned how to take the initiative and how to care for people; he understood a variety of richer emotions, happiness, anger, disappointment, and even grievances, and slowly his walls fell bit by bit. .
The boy will always have a black and white world, but slowly some new colors are being added, although it is slow, but it is already a progress that has surprised him immensly.
Uncle Chen knews how difficult it was for Lisa to meet such a person, so Uncle Chen would seize every opportunity to make Lisa and Jennie get closer, such as today’s favor, such as his intentions today at school. He had gone to the school’s office hoping to put Jennie and Lisa in the same class next year.

Fortunately, Jennie’s grades were also very good, otherwise it would be a little difficult to handle.
Lisa actually didn’t like having a summer vacation. Although he now had Jennie’s phone number, and Jennie had also said that she would come to him when she had time and would invite him out to eat, but she never specified a time. But even if a specific time was mentioned, the most they might meet during summer vacation couldn’t compare to the hours they would spend at school.
Summer vacation was too long, and with a vacation of nearly two months, seeing each other once or twice was really pitiful.
Why was summer vacation so long, couldn’t it be a little shorter like winter vacation?
Taking out a book from his bookshelf again, the messy thoughts in his head were cleared out, and for a moment, only the symbols and words that the peers could not understand were left.
After Lisa devoted himself to something, it was difficult for him to be disturbed. After reading all the content he wanted to read, he felt a little thirsty, so he opened the door of the room and prepared to drink some water in the kitchen.
Then he saw someone in his own house and was stunned for a long time.
Jennie was sitting on the sofa in front of the coffee table with a book in her hand. It was the set of world history that Lisa gave to Jennie. There was no movement in Lisa’s room after Uncle Chen and Jennie arrived. Uncle Chen explained that Lisa was probably reading, so Jennie didn’t bother to go in and disturb him.
Smiling and looking at the dazed Lisa, Jennie pointed to the cut oranges on the table, “After reading it, do you want to take a break and eat something?”
Lisa still didn’t react, until Uncle Chen himself came out of the room, and briefly explained to Lisa. After listening, Lisa turned around and said to Jennie, “Don’t take care of me.”
“Huh?” Jennie looked up.
“Aunt Chen is not here, just stay here.”
It’s fine if she lived here. She didn’t need to take care of him or do anything. Lisa thought that it was already very very good that Jennie was already here.v
Uncle Chen looked at Lisa’s sincere appearance, and he enjoyed it for a long time. He knew it would definitely be beneficial to coax Jennie into the house.
Lisa was unhappy from the beginning, and then suddenly he was stunned. In hindsight, it seemed like he became happy, but then there was uncontrollable tension. Although he was still expressionless, Jennie saw Lisa’s habitual circular movements that happened when he was nervous.
Dinner was made by Lisa’s full-time nutritionist, and it is delivered at a fixed time. Usually, Aunt Chen cooked it herself according to the dietitian’s meal plan. But since Aunt Chen was not there, the nutritionist had to come in person.

Although Jennie said that she used to work all kinds of jobs and so her life experience was quite rich, because she didn’t have a family since she was a child, she didn’t know how to cook.
The only good thing was that she knew how to make desserts and coffee. After all, she had worked in coffee shops for a long time. At that time, she was in college, and the cafe she went to was not far from the school. The shop was small but very distinctive. The owner was a senior sister of Jennie’s, who often taught Jennie to make desserts in her spare time.
Jennie walked around in the kitchen. Aunt Chen should be a person who liked to study cooking. There were all kinds of tools in the kitchen, and there were various fresh ingredients delivered every day in the refrigerator.
Looking at it, Jennie was moved.
Lisa liked sweets very much, Jennie discovered this after sitting at the same table with Lisa for two months.
The seemingly cold boy actually had a sweet tooth. The contrast was great, but it was also quite cute.
Jennie took her mobile phone and used her memory to search for a few desserts that she had made before. She hadn’t baked in a long time and she didn’t remember much. After some searching, she found a good dessert to make and saved it.
She’ll give it a try when she has the chance.
But she didn’t expect the opportunity to come so soon.
Aunt Chen’s hometown was not too far from here. It takes about three hours to drive by car. Before, Uncle Chen had said that something had happened in Aunt Chen’s family. He didn’t specify what it was, but after a few days, Uncle Chen told Jennie himself that he would have to go there and he will be back tomorrow. So he had to trouble Jennie to take care of Lisa for one day.
By then Jennie had lived with Lisa for several days and observed Manoban mo’s daily life closely, but found that Manobanmo was actually very independent in his daily life.
Except for the books on the high shelves, Lisa could do almost everything by himself, bathing, sleeping, and changing clothes. However, Uncle Chen still explained a lot to Jennie about what must be avoided. Things that he can’t eat, remembering to check the windows of Lisa’s room before going to bed, etc. He also reminded her that Lisa can’t stand the night breeze, and that he can’t have lights on at night.
Jennie took a small book and wrote down all of the things Uncle Chen said. Lisa, who was sitting in the room but could hear Uncle Chen and Jennie talking, began to draw circles on the book nervously.
Although he sat at the same table with Jennie for half a year, he was still nervous when Jennie came to his house. After a few days past Lisa was finally less nervous, but now Uncle Chen was leaving, which meant that there were only the two of them left in the house. So Lisa became nervous again.
Uncle Chen smiled after he finished talking. In fact, there was nothing to worry about. Lisa was not a child who couldn’t live without people. Before, Father Manoban would often let Lisa live here alone. He just took the opportunity to say this to Jennie.
In the afternoon, Uncle Chen took a short rest, and then drove away. Jennie glanced at Lisa’s still quiet room, and found out the pictures that he had intercepted that day. After some pondering she wanted to make something to eat, so she entered the kitchen and began to ponder about what to make
Lisa’s room was not big, about one hundred and forty-five, square ft. and the room was very quiet. Lisa sat in his room and could hear Jennie open the refrigerator. She was probably looking for something to eat.
Lisa stared at the book in front of him for a while, before he moved his wheelchair in order to get out of the room.
Slowly entering the kitchen, Lisa saw Jennie wearing the apron that Aunt Chen usually wore, while holding her mobile phone and looking for something. As soon as she turned her head, Jennie saw Lisa.
“Is it bothering you?” Jennie put down the phone, “Do you want me to be quieter?”
“No,” Lisa stared at Jennie’s apron. Aunt Chen wore it every day, and Lisa never paid any attention to it. But now that the person wearing it was Jennie, Lisa couldn’t move his eyes. And suddenly, like before, he felt an indescribable sense of intimacy.
“You are…”, Lisa finally set his sight on other things, “Do you want to cook?”
“I can’t cook.” Jennie smiled, “I want to try making desserts, Lisa, do you like pudding. I’m making pudding.”
Lisa pushed his wheelchair forward, and his eyes fell on the ingredients on the table, “Like it.”
He liked it, but Jennie was more interesting.
She had forgotten how to make some difficult desserts, and so she didn’t dare to show her lack of ability. The easier ones were pretty easy and she was pretty sure she could make it. Customers who came to the coffee shop liked the egg pudding that she had made for the senior sister, so Jennie decided to make that.

8 221An Id of Primal Chaos
TAG DISCLAIMER: The tags 'Portal Fantasy / isekai', 'High Fantasy', and 'Non-Human Lead' do not take place until later on in the novel. Probably mid-way through the first volume. The 'villainous lead' tag is a very loose tag. Some of the things the mc does can be considered villainous to those with a staunch moral code, however, I have not made the mc out to be overtly villainous. True Title: Advent of the Silent Storm (I came up with the original title a while ago, before I had even written a single chapter. It still kind of fits but this new title fits a lot better. I would change it but I don't know if it would screw up the recommendation algorithm.) Excerpt: My mind wanders through the soup of unconsciousness, still startlingly awake despite my physical form’s stasis. Electricity completely paralyzes the air around me and lightning flashes in a constant strobe of blinding light. The ground, thousands of feet below my being has been wiped clean of all manmade artifice and natural beauty; leveled, through absolute power. My power. Synopsis: Tetal Faelen, a very successful businessman with lofty goals, is introduced to an omniscient being through less than pleasant means. This being has an irresistible offer for Tetal with next to no downside. Tetal can’t help but wonder, “What’s the catch?” Additional Notes: Second novel I have started within the Web of Interconnected Realities. My other novel is not posted on this site so don't bother looking for it. I might post it here in the future.
8 210Cosmic Plague
In this world, everyone is cursed with a single fate: Become the most powerful. But those who do become powerful, they hate it. Power is misery and death is the solace. လလလ Nazar, a weapon of mass destruction created by the ancient God of Destruction revolted against his creator a long time ago. While he did defeat his creator, the power he was given is still within him. He is cursed with infinite power, standing at the top of the celestial hierarchy. He has more power and wealth than he needs. But even then, he craves one thing; death. He wants to die. Power is misery and death is the solace, but he cannot achieve his only goal. He cannot die. Perhaps that will change when one day, an ancient cosmic Goddess rises from her grave? Perhaps she will finally kill him? Or will she fall short before his awesome yet terrible power? Only time will tell. This is a high cosmic story about the hypocritical life of the protagonist and how it affects everyone (and everything) around him. Naturally, it features very overpowered characters with a lot of high stakes battles roaming across the cosmos. Warning: Swearing, some suggestive sexual gestures/words, gore. Feedback is highly welcomed. (The story was originally named, God's Return, but I wanted to change it.)
