Free Web NovelArriving at the Liao Zhai Tavern for the second time, a hint of surprise flashed in Lu Yibei's eyes as soon as she entered.
Just as the interview records in the Night Watch's archives stated, the scene one sees in the Liao Zhai Tavern is closely related to what is in their heart.
Last night, when she came here, Lu Yibei saw a layout similar to Lus Sichuan Cuisine Restaurant, but today, perhaps because of Ju Meng's words disturbing her thoughts, what she saw was a layout similar to the Chunfeng Residence.
Bai Kai followed behind Lu Yibei. Seeing her stop, he reached out and patted her shoulder, "Go in first. Let's sit down and talk." Although he said he didn't want to hear Lu Yibei's troubles, driven by the "maternal instinct" he had developed over many years, his body was still very honest.
"Two guests, is that table okay?" "Yes, no problem."
"So, what would you two like to order?"
"Let's start with a pot of tea? We'll call you later if we want anything else." "Alright, please follow me!"
Guided by the waiter, they found a table and sat down. Bai Kai stared gloomily at Lu Yibei, who was holding her phone, and lowered his voice, "Can you hang up the phone now? I don't know who you learned this low-class trick from."
"You really learned..."
Bai Kai originally wanted to say Lu Yibei had gone bad, but on second thought, it was also possible that her bloodline had awakened after taking over that terrifying woman's God Kingdom Prototype.
In short, she wasn't like this before. Although she used to be a leaky little cotton-padded jacket, she at least had some cotton. Now, not only is she leaky, but she's also stuffed with only black-hearted cotton.
However, even if it's a leaky black-hearted cotton-padded jacket, it's still his own little cotton-padded jacket, right? He couldn't possibly just throw it aside and ignore it, could he?
Lu Yibei put down her phone, covered the microphone with one hand, and squinted at Bai Kai, "What do you mean by low-class trick? Shui Ge, you seem very unwilling?"
"I..." Bai Kai hesitated, then after two seconds of silence, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm willing, so can you please hang up the phone quickly?"
If Xiao Yuan'er finds out about this, I won't be able to leave, Bai Kai added in his heart.
Hearing this, Lu Yibei rolled her eyes at Bai Kai, released the hand covering the microphone, put the phone back to her ear, and said sweetly, "Superintendent Adult~! Hmm? No, it has nothing to do with Shui Ge! I just missed you, so I called to say hello!"
After she finished speaking, Inspector Xing Yuan on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment. Her voice trembled slightly, as if she had just drunk a bowl of old vinegar, and she said, "It's better if you don't miss me. I can't quite accept you like this, let alone..."
"You say you miss me, but if I'm not mistaken, you're actually just trying to get information about that agent from me, right?" Hearing Inspector Xing Yuan mention Jiang Hao, Lu Yibei immediately sat up straight, and her eyes lit up with eagerness, looking just like a primary school student waiting for the Teacher to hand out candy.
Jiang Hao hadn't replied to her messages for two or three days.
Although she knew Jiang Hao was at the Si Ye Hui Headquarters and had a lot of preparatory work to do for her Spirit Mark advancement, it was normal for her not to contact her for now.
But it was fine when Inspector Xing Yuan didn't mention it. Now that she had said it, how could she possibly resist not asking? "Please tell me, please tell me, I'm listening!"
"Heh, as expected!" Inspector Xing Yuan chuckled and said, "Don't worry! She's doing well. She has passed all three rounds of the Spirit Mark compatibility comprehensive tests. She will complete her Spirit Mark advancement in the next two or three days. After observing for a while, she will probably return to Hua City in about a month."
"Phew." Hearing that Jiang Hao's Spirit Mark advancement was going smoothly, Lu Yibei breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. Thank you for informing me, Superintendent Adult."
"Okay, I'm busy here, so I'll hang up now." Inspector Xing Yuan said, and then hung up the phone.
Lu Yibei put away her phone and looked up to see Bai Kai staring at her with narrowed eyes, looking like a resentful woman.
"Shui Ge, what's wrong?"
"What do you think is wrong?" Bai Kai said irritably, "You stopped me just to show me this?"
Although I've been busy recently, I know all about the mess between you and Jiang Hao. I've had my fill of dog food, I really don't need any more, Bai Kai thought.
"Uh..." Lu Yibei's lips parted slightly. After a few seconds of contemplation, she said solemnly, "Shui Ge, I actually do have something on my mind that I want to talk to you about. It's like this..."
So, Lu Yibei told Bai Kai about accidentally overhearing Ju Meng's confession and being in a dilemma, omitting some details.
"That's pretty much it. What do you think I should do?" Lu Yibei asked.
"I understand." Bai Kai said, crossing his arms over his chest and leaning back in his chair, "So, while you have someone in your heart, a friend who was originally like a father and son to you suddenly confessed to you, and then you suddenly realized that you also have some special feelings for her, right?" fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
"Mm-hmm!" Lu Yibei nodded, "You're experienced in this, aren't you?" "Indeed!" Bai Kai curled his lip, "Back then, I was also caught between a rich woman and a Senior Brother???"
Lu Yibei's expression changed, and her eyes widened, "He confessed to you too?"
Damn it! I always thought they were a bit gay, but I didn't expect them to actually be together?!
Seeing this, Bai Kai realized that Lu Yibei might have misunderstood something and quickly explained, "Uh, that example isn't very appropriate. I don't have that kind of feeling for Senior Brother, and he never confessed to me."
"I was simply caught between friendship and love, unable to make a choice." "Oh!" Lu Yibei's expression softened slightly, and she nodded.
Seeing this, Bai Kai tilted his head, "Aren't you going to ask me how I finally chose?"
"Is that even a question?" Lu Yibei shrugged, "In that situation, any hesitation for even a second would be disrespectful to the rich woman!"
"..." Bai Kai looked up at the sky, slowly closed his eyes, and sighed silently. Lu Ming, do you see this? This is your good son!
If you have a spirit in heaven, I wonder if you'll be able to rest in peace?
Seeing that Bai Kai hadn't spoken for a long time, Lu Yibei pressed on, "Shui Ge, that example doesn't work. How about you give me another example!" Hearing this, Bai Kai gathered his thoughts and looked at Lu Yibei, saying, "I..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he froze there. After thinking seriously for a moment, he realized that he really hadn't encountered a situation where he was in a dilemma.
He loved each one, and was sincere to each one, and he wouldn't choose at all, like a messenger of love.
Sometimes he even thought that if he were a urban legend, with these past ten years of experience, perhaps his Power would have changed long ago because of the existence of those confidantes.
"Forget it, I can't think of a particularly good example. I'll just tell you directly how to deal with this situation." "Please tell me, please tell me!" Lu Yibei said, fawningly pouring a cup of tea and offering it to Bai Kai with both hands.
"Two methods!" Bai Kai held up two fingers and said, "The first method is to be ruthless and choose one." "This..." Lu Yibei frowned. "You can't choose, right?" Bai Kai curled his lip.
Lu Yibei looked at Bai Kai, hesitated for a few seconds, and nodded slightly.

"Then it's easy!" Bai Kai put down one finger and said, "The second method is to be more open-minded and ignore all that moral nonsense."
Lu Yibei, "...Not talking about morals, I'm familiar with that!" "You just need to remember one thing!"
"Mm-hmm!" Lu Yibei nodded solemnly. Looking at Bai Kai's appearance, she was just short of taking out a small notebook to write down what Bai Kai was about to say!
"Remember, wife is wife, mistress is mistress, girlfriend is girlfriend, darling is darling, Baobao is Baobao. These are all different. The important thing is, at the critical moment, don't call out the wrong name!" Bai Kai said seriously.
"You don't know, one time I called out the wrong name at a critical moment, and that Miss almost fought me to the death!" As soon as he said this, even the guests at the tables next to them looked over.
Psychic B, "Damn! That's too much of a scumbag!"
urban legend A, "...Is it that exciting? Tell me more, the kid loves to listen!" Lu Yibei, "???"
Seeing the confusion in Lu Yibei's eyes, Bai Kai lifted his chin slightly and said somewhat proudly, "Little Disaster, do you feel like your worldview has been severely impacted? But you want to..."
"No." Lu Yibei said.
"Huh?"
"I said no." Lu Yibei said expressionlessly, "I just don't quite understand what you mean by 'critical moment'. Can you explain in detail?"
Bai Kai, "..."
Although, is it a bit too early to tell Xiao Bei those things now? If I really tell her, the story will end here, right? --
--
In the end, Bai Kai held back and didn't tell Lu Yibei about his Syrian-level artillery past. He just left a sentence, "Figure it out yourself!" and got up, walking out of the Liao Zhai Tavern.
He had just left the Liao Zhai Tavern's door and hadn't walked far when he heard a rapid sound of footsteps behind him. "Shui Ge, wait a minute!"
Hearing the call, Bai Kai turned around and looked at Lu Yibei who was catching up, tilting his head, "What's wrong? Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Master, I've figured it out!" Lu Yibei said expressionlessly. Bai Kai, "???"
That fast? Could this kid really have the potential to be a scumbag?
"Just kidding." Seeing Bai Kai's surprised expression, Lu Yibei waved her hand, and then her tone became serious, "Shui Ge, I heard from Brother Tire that you took a long leave, right?"
As she spoke, her gaze shifted slightly downwards, landing on the long sword that had been collecting dust in Bai Kai's hand, "And you even took out this sword. Are you preparing to do something big?"
Although she didn't know what Bai Kai was preparing to do, Lu Yibei had noticed Bai Kai's series of unusual actions recently.
"I..." Bai Kai frowned, was silent for a moment, and then said, "There are indeed some things I need to deal with."
"Is it troublesome?" Lu Yibei asked.
"Yes." Bai Kai softly replied, "It's a bit tricky." "Does Godmother know?" Lu Yibei asked again.
"She doesn't know." Bai Kai shook his head and said in a deep voice, "But even if you or she try to stop me, I must go." "Who said I was going to stop you?" Lu Yibei shrugged, "I understand this kind of thing. Men, right? There are always some things they have to do, right?"
Hearing this, Bai Kai's eyes trembled, then he smiled wryly, and then looked at Lu Yibei playfully, teasing, "You brat, talking to me about men? You're still very early!"
"First, handle those two Miss of yours!"
"I'm not bragging, back in the day, at my peak, I could handle over thirty ladies at the same time without a hitch!" Lu Yibei, "..."
After a brief silence, she asked again, "Shui Ge, is there any life danger in the thing you're going to do?"
?" Bai Kai didn't speak.
But at this time, not speaking is actually an answer. If there were no danger, he should have said it directly.
"Understood!" Lu Yibei nodded thoughtfully, and then activated the earth vein aura, opened the channel of the God Kingdom Prototype, took out a package, and handed it to Bai Kai.
"Shui Ge, there are some small things I made myself inside. They're quite effective. Take them with you, they might help a little." Bai Kai looked at the package in Lu Yibei's hand, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he didn't take it.
"Shui Ge, just take it, okay?" Lu Yibei said, forcefully stuffing the package into Bai Kai's arms, "I've already lost one father, I don't want to lose another father..." frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"Good luck! Come back soon. When you come back, I still need to ask you how to deal with relationship problems!" After speaking, she ran back into the Liao Zhai Tavern with slightly flushed cheeks, without looking back.
Looking at Lu Yibei's retreating back, Bai Kai stood in place for a long time, then let out a soft laugh, and then slightly tightened his grip on the package in his hand.
Worrying all day long! How could I die so easily? If I can't beat them, can't I run away?" --
Another night.
For Boss Hu, this night seemed no different from the countless nights he had experienced. Around the same time, around the same number of guests came and ordered some similar dishes.
Perhaps there might be some small unexpected incidents that are different from the past, but if you stretch the time to a certain dimension, those small incidents don't really count for much.
So, when Lu Yibei appeared before him, there was not a single ripple in his heart. He just lifted his eyelids and asked calmly, "I understand what you mean. You want to learn cooking from me, right?"
"Mm-hmm, that's right!" Lu Yibei nodded, "If Boss Hu has any requirements, as long as they don't violate principles, I will try my best to meet them."
"It's that something about restraint, right? I understand!"
Although Ju Meng had told her that Boss Hu would almost always teach cooking if someone wanted to learn, she felt that polite words should still be said properly.
Hearing this, Boss Hu opened his eyes, looked at Lu Yibei for a moment, and smiled meaningfully, "You said this yourself. I didn't say I wanted any benefits, but since you've already opened your mouth..."
"Then, in addition to learning, help out in the store!"
As he spoke, he sat up straight, looked around the store for a while, and called out softly, "Yaoning Ning, come here for a moment. Take her to the back and give her one of your skirts. I think your figure is similar to hers, so she should be able to wear it."
Lu Yibei, "???"
No, let me wear Yaoning Ning's skirt and work here? What happened to not ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ violating principles?
