Chapter 260 Pandora's Feast for the Eyes
This long-planned battle was initiated by Luna.
She placed the small bowl of porridge on the table, then picked up the plate of pre-cut fruit and placed it in front of Sean.
"Uncle Hack~" Luna called out "Uncle" after a long time. "Would you like some fruit after your meal?"
Sean has no problem with it.
He nodded and obediently opened his mouth.
What kind of fruit would you like to eat?
"apple."
"ah-"
Luna gently picked up a piece of cut fruit with her fork; the apple glistened enticingly, and she carefully brought it to Sean's lips.
Sean took a bite, and the sweet juice instantly filled his mouth.
"Mmm, it's very sweet," Sean commented with a smile.
"What fruit should we eat next?" Luna's question sounded more like a self-answered question. Before Sean could swallow the apple in his mouth, she picked up a strawberry and put it in her mouth.
Sean watched with great interest as Luna ate the strawberries.
Every now and then, bits of fruit would spill out between her teeth, which she would then roll into her mouth.
What Sean couldn't take his eyes off was the way Luna ate strawberries—she would first put the whole strawberry into her mouth, then gently bite off the skin, and then impatiently stuff the whole fruit into her mouth, letting out a satisfied hum.
Are strawberries... really that delicious?
Before Sean could even ask the question, Luna had already provided the answer.
"Hmm... the strawberry tastes pretty good too!" Luna mumbled between chewing her food.
There was even a trace of glistening red juice remaining at the corner of her mouth, making her look exceptionally alluring.
Sean's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he unconsciously swallowed.
Luna, who was eating strawberries, noticed Sean's subtle movements, and a mischievous smile appeared on her lips.
She deliberately took another strawberry from the plate, took a bite, and the bright red juice overflowed again, slowly sliding down the corner of her mouth, leaving an enticing mark.
"Uncle Huck, would you like to try some strawberries too?" Luna blinked and asked in a slightly teasing tone.
Sean was somewhat embarrassed by Luna's question. He coughed lightly, trying to cover up his embarrassment. "Ahem,"
"I just thought the strawberries looked really good, and you were eating them so deliciously, it made me a little hungry too."
Luna smiled even more broadly after hearing Sean's explanation. She picked up a slice of strawberry and gently held it to Sean's lips. "Then, Uncle Huck, you should try some too. This strawberry is really sweet!"
Sean hesitated for a moment, but finally opened his mouth.
But as expected, I didn't get to eat any strawberries.
Luna withdrew her hand, put the strawberry in her mouth, gently bit off half of it, and then looked at Sean rather provocatively.
As if possessed, Sean reached out and gently pressed Luna's head, then pulled her closer.
"Huh?!" Luna's eyes widened in surprise, seemingly not expecting Sean to do such a thing.
But she soon realized what Sean was planning to do.
"Hey, Uncle Huck, what are you doing?!" Luna struggled to break free from Sean's grip, but Sean only held her tighter.
"Don't move, be good," Sean commanded softly.
As he spoke, his lips covered Luna's red lips, and he shoved the half-eaten strawberry into his mouth.
"Eek..." Luna exclaimed, but she quickly realized that Sean was just eating the food in her mouth.
This simple kiss made her heart skip a beat. Sean's warm breath washed over her, making her feel weak all over.
"Uncle Huck..." Luna murmured Sean's name, her eyes misty.
Seeing this, Sean also became somewhat tempted, but he managed to suppress his impulse and released Luna.
"You ate it all. Are you satisfied now?" Sean laughed.
Luna's cheeks were now completely flushed, and after stammering for a while, she managed to squeeze out, "Uncle Huck is such a pervert..."
"
"Uncle Huck..." Luna murmured, her hands beginning to wander restlessly over Sean's body.
She stroked Sean's broad chest through his clothes, then moved downwards, reaching inside his garments.
Sean suddenly snapped out of it, pushed Luna away from him, and took a few deep breaths.
It was at this moment that Luna, having calmed down, realized that Sean had regained some of his bodily functions.
"Luna, what are you doing?! Are we joking?!" Sean questioned in a deep voice.
Luna looked aggrieved, her lips trembling as she gazed at Sean with teary eyes.
"Uncle Hack seemed to be enjoying it too... so why did he push me away..."
Sean was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"Fine, I get it. Uncle Huck never really liked me; he was just teasing me." Luna wiped away her tears and said, trying to sound relaxed, "I understand what love is now..."
Seeing Luna with tears streaming down her face, Sean felt his heart break.
He couldn't resist pulling Luna into his arms and fiercely kissing her moist lips.
"Ugh..." Luna's body trembled slightly; she couldn't believe that Sean would actually kiss her on his own initiative.
His kiss was passionate and wild, as if he wanted to devour her completely.
After a long while, Sean finally let go of Luna, who was almost suffocating. He looked at Luna's swollen red lips and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.
"My good girl, this is my little Luna." Sean gently stroked Luna's long hair, his voice filled with affection.
Luna stared blankly at Sean, then suddenly burst into tears.
"Beep beep beep... Uncle Hack... You're so mean... You're bullying me..."
Sean was somewhat exasperated by Luna's sudden crying. He sighed softly, lowered his head, and kissed Luna's cheek.
He tried to calm her down.
"Okay, okay, don't cry. It's all my fault, I shouldn't have rejected you. Please forgive me."

"Uncle Huck..." Luna looked up at Sean, her eyes blurry with tears, and suddenly nodded forcefully.
"I forgive you... I'll forgive you as long as Uncle Huck likes me."
Sean chuckled, ruffled Luna's messy hair, and leaned down to place a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"Don't worry, you silly girl. How could I not like you?"
?
Luna smiled brightly after hearing Sean's words.
In love, there is never a right or a wrong.
Therefore, the battle ended in a draw.
Since that day, Sean's health has fully recovered.
He is now terrifyingly strong.
Ever since Luna confessed her feelings that day, the relationship between the two has quietly changed.
For Luna.
Previously, Sean always maintained a distant and restrained attitude towards her, like an elder, but now he often hugs and kisses her.
Moreover, whenever the two were alone, Sean's eyes would linger on her, as if searching for some treasure.
All of this filled Luna with ecstasy; she felt she was getting closer and closer to Sean.
As for Sean...
Since Luna confessed her feelings to him, she has become increasingly bold.
Sometimes I wouldn't even sleep at night, sneaking into his room...
The sweet atmosphere between the two gradually intensified.
This day, in the morning, at breakfast time.
Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, falling on the dining table of Sean and Lovegood's family.
The table was laden with a variety of breakfast foods, from freshly baked bread to steaming hot oatmeal, as well as perfectly fried eggs and sausages, all emitting an enticing aroma that whetted the appetite.
Sean sat next to Xenophilius, with Luna and Lady Pandora sitting opposite him.
"Hark, you seem to be recovering well," Xenophilius said, chewing on his bread. "Any plans for the future?"
Sean thought for a moment, swallowed the food in his mouth, and replied, "I have something to do tomorrow. I have to go on a long trip and may not be back for a while."
In fact, Sean has been thinking about his next plan for the past few days.
After returning from ancient Egypt, he never contacted Lily again.
They say there's no contact, but in reality, they can't get in touch with them.
Before the two decided to go to ancient Egypt together, they communicated entirely by telephone.
But for some reason, he couldn't get through to Lily on the phone these past few days.
It was as if... she had vanished from this world.
This inexplicable loss of contact made Sean anxious, so he decided to go to Lily's place to check on her.
"Going on a long trip? Is there something important?" Xenophilius asked with concern.
Sean shook his head. "I'm just going to visit an old friend I haven't seen in a long time."
"Visiting old friends, that's certainly an important matter." Xenophilius nodded understandingly. "Is there anything I can help prepare? Like travel supplies or gifts, for example?"
Just as Sean was about to politely decline, he heard Mrs. Pandora exclaim in surprise.
"Luna, what happened to your lips?"
Upon hearing this, Luna unconsciously touched her lips, a hint of embarrassment flashing across her face.
She and Sean have been practicing "The Meaning of Love" frequently these past two days, which has made her lips look swollen.
"Oh, this... I probably bumped into it by accident last night, it's nothing serious." Luna tried to respond in a relaxed tone, but the unease in her eyes was hard to hide.
Sean, who was the culprit, was even more embarrassed. He wanted to start a new topic, but for some reason, when he looked at Luna, he couldn't bring himself to say what he wanted to say.
Lady Pandora was clearly not so easily dismissed. She stood up, moved next to Luna, and examined her lips closely. "This doesn't look like a simple bruise, Luna. Are you...?"
Hearing Mrs. Pandora's words, Sean and Luna's hearts jumped into their throats, so tense they almost jumped out.
However, the conversation that followed brought them a genuine sense of relief.
"Did you—steal some mangoes?" Mrs. Pandora's tone was stern, clearly reproachful. "Don't you know you're allergic to mangoes? Every time you eat them, your lips swell up like this. And you still dared to steal some? You're such a worry!"
Upon hearing this, Luna was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening and a big smile spread across her face. "Ah, haha, yes! Mom, I did sneak a few mangoes last night, I didn't expect my lips to be so swollen."
As she spoke, she touched her lips somewhat shyly.
Looking at Luna's appearance, Lady Pandora's reproach was instantly replaced by helplessness and doting affection.
She sighed softly and shook her head. "You little glutton, you're allergic to mangoes and still so greedy. Don't do it again next time, okay?"
Luna nodded obediently, and then continued to eat the bacon on her plate.
Sean sensed her gaze out of the corner of his eye.
His expression clearly said: Look, Uncle Huck, look what you've done!
Looks like I'll have to use a different mouth to kiss next time.
After this little incident, the atmosphere at the table returned to its previous harmonious state.
After finishing her bread, Pandora seemed to have thought of something and slowly said, "Oh, right, I have something to announce."
The three people's eyes focused on Pandora almost at the same time.
Even Xenophius, who had just been about to get up to use the restroom, sat back down on the bench, waiting for her to continue.
All three of them, including Sean, wanted to know what this "thing" Pandora was talking about was.
Pandora smiled slightly, seemingly quite satisfied with the effect she had created.
She took a small sip of orange juice, then slowly put down the glass, her tone tinged with pride. "Actually, it's nothing big. It's just that little project I've been busy with lately—the potion I painstakingly created by imitating an ancient potion recipe—has finally made progress."
Her voice rose slightly, tinged with excitement and pride, "To change the history of potions, I'm preparing to begin my experiment the day after tomorrow."
If successful, this would be a major breakthrough in the field of potions, enough to astound all potions scientists!
As she spoke, she looked at Sean sitting to the side, a hint of regret in her eyes.
She said softly, "It's a pity, Mr. Hark, that you won't live to see this event that will change the history of potions. However, I will record the results of the experiment in detail, and I will definitely show them to you when you return."
Sean's heart tightened when he heard the words "potion experiment".
Given the timing, he had already connected it to some unpleasant things.
He hesitated for a moment, then looked at Pandora and said seriously, "How about... I stay one day longer?"
I think I'd feel more at ease if I saw you start the experiment with my own eyes.
Pandora was stunned; she hadn't expected Sean to make such a decision.
She looked at him gratefully. "No problem, Mr. Huck, I guarantee you'll have a feast for the eyes."
Will it really be a feast for the eyes?
Sean expressed strong skepticism about this.
If... Lady Pandora tragically perished in this potion experiment.
Luna: You must be very sad.
With these thoughts in mind, Sean's gaze involuntarily turned to Luna sitting opposite him.
At that moment, she was looking intently at her mother, her eyes filled with admiration.
He: What should I do?!
