"Vice Captain Xiyu, what kind of girls do you like?"
"I like them all if they’re beautiful! Co on, cheers! Let’s celebrate our love that will eventually fade away!"
"Vice Captain Xiyu, isn’t it boring to just drink and sing all the ti?"
"What do you an? What do you an? I’m a legit person! I only accept services registered on your business license! Cheers! To our health, that we can still drink!"
"Vice Captain Xiyu, you always co alone, don’t you feel lonely? Sotis, you should hang out with friends~"
"Friends? I’ve only got one friend, he’s always traveling for work and hardly ever in River Debris City; even if he were here, he wouldn’t fit in at your place! He’s a monk! Cheers! To us having decent jobs!"
"Masters can co too, you know. Isn’t it said, form is emptiness, and emptiness is form?"
"Hahaha, you’re right, I’ll pass this on next ti I see him! Cheers! To... what shall we celebrate?"
Oh well, nothing good to celebrate, so let’s toast to the chance encounter tonight that kept you from wrecking other people’s hos!"
"Huh? Vice Captain Xiyu, what do you an by that?"
"Don’t overthink it, just take it literally! Cheers!"
"..."
Drinks went down one by one.
People in the private room dropped to the floor one after another.
As the last woman who tried talking to Xiyu succumbed to the floor, Xiyu belched loudly and drained his bottle in one go.
Just then, Xiyu’s phone rang, the contact na shown was—
"Devout Buddhist."
Seeing the call, Xiyu’s previously muddled eyes suddenly regained clarity.
He hung up the call straight away...
And then dialed back with a video call.
Xiyu: "Haha, Buddha’s Son, why are you calling at this hour?"
Devout Buddhist: "The Rich Monk’s arrived in River Debris City, thought I’d call the local big shot?"
Xiyu: "Big shot sounds terrible, call the streetwise champion instead."
Devout Buddhist: "Alright, big shot, where are you, why is the light flickering?"
Xiyu: "?... I’m in hell."
Devout Buddhist looked at the redirected cara view, the scene was quite alluring, he closed his eyes and quietly asked:
"Are you stacking up virtues again today?"
"Hahaha, of course you get , I made it so these people can’t go harm others, isn’t that rit aplenty?"
Saying so, Xiyu belched again, then asked:
"Where are you, I’ll co get you."
"The Rich Monk just landed."
"Alright, I’m on my way... oh, lend so money, will you? Today’s abundant rit is coming out of my own pocket, I’ve already prepaid my salary through to 100 years later, the captain won’t let advance any further."
As soon as Xiyu finished talking, the call cut off.
"Stingy, it’s not like I won’t pay you back!"
Xiyu rubbed his rosy cheeks, giving his face a couple of pats to sober up a bit.
Next, Xiyu opened his contact list, and clicked on the star-marked "Captain".
The call connected quickly.
Xiyu: "Captain, the Devout Buddhist from the City Joint Committee has arrived, though he’s a good friend, he’ll surely give us a favorable review of River Debris City, but we can’t let private relations..."
River Debris City Captain: "I know about Devout Buddhist visiting here; didn’t we discuss it at today’s eting already? You zoned out again, didn’t you? Never mind, spare your nonsense, get to the point!"
Xiyu: "Requesting so hosting funds."
River Debris City Captain: "Have you been out drinking again?"
Xiyu: "No, no, definitely not, I was just released on your behalf, how could I possibly...hic~"
River Debris City Captain: ...
Xiyu: ...
After a long pause, Xiyu ekly said:
"Captain, allow to explain, I drank a lot of milk tonight, that wasn’t a booze burp, just a milk burp! You must believe !"
...
Ke Chen City.
Back room of Happy Milk Tea Shop.
"It’s alright, I believe you can do it! Just now, you almost made it.You’ve done great up to this point, the final step, completely fuse your energy into the milk tea, no rush, steady now."
Under Lin Hao’s encouragent, Qianqian took a "Grain Avoidance Pill", once again summoning her power, following Lin Hao’s guidance in imbedding her energy into the ingredients, beginning to mix the "Signature Happy Milk Tea" anew.
Having failed nurous tis, Qianqian kept reassuring herself—
After failing so many tis, succeeding is only normal now!
After failing so many tis, succeeding is only normal now!
After failing so many tis...
Not sure whether it was due to repeated failures or the influence of her superpower, this ti—
[Residual Pill Ancestor Lin Hao successfully imparts Basic Milk Tea Art to Servant Disciple Qianqian!]
[The entry is the hardest part]
[Servant Disciple Qianqian has successfully cultivated Basic Milk Tea Art, is she far from mastering Interdiate, Advanced Milk Tea Art, and Milk Tea Technique?]
[Residual Pill Ancestor Lin Hao can continue expanding sect industry!]
[In the Hundred Skills of Cultivation, Milk Tea Art will ultimately shine brightly!]
Looking at the log updates, Lin Hao smiled and said:
"Good, you’ve succeeded!"
Qianqian sowhat incredulously asked:
"Teacher Lin, you’re saying I’ve succeeded?"
"Yes, you’ve succeeded!"
Receiving Lin Hao’s confirmation, Qianqian jumped up excitedly, shouting:
"I did it! I did it! I did it!"
The jubilant cheer prompted Li Chuchu, who was doing accounts in the adjacent office, to pause her work and enter their room.
"Qianqian, what’s making you so happy?"
"Sister Chuchu, I succeeded!" I successfully made our shop’s Signature Happy Milk Tea! Have a taste!"
With that, Qianqian handed the freshly brewed milk tea to Li Chuchu.
Getting a reassuring nod from Lin Hao, Li Chuchu attempted to sip, the taste, while slightly short of Lin Hao’s current brew, still...
Was really good!
This taste, it was exactly like Lin Hao’s first brew when he first joined the shop.
Though Li Chuchu’s palate had beco more refined from Lin Hao’s milk tea, to encourage Qianqian, under Qianqian’s eager gaze, Li Chuchu gulped down the entire cup!
Qianqian: "Sister Chuchu, how does it taste?"
Li Chuchu: "Of course, it’s delicious, see, I drank it all!"
Qianqian: "That’s great!"
Li Chuchu: "That’s great, our shop finally has a second—Gold dal Milk Tea Master!"
"No, no, no, I’ve only just learned to make Signature Happy Milk Tea, how could I be on par with Teacher Lin as a Gold dal Milk Tea Master?"
Li Chuchu was about to tease Qianqian further when she suddenly felt—
So hungry, so hungry, so hungry, so hungry...
Didn’t eat lightly tonight either, why the sudden hunger?
