Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord

Chapter 2340: Chapter 2340: The Sweet Taste of Success

After tasting success for the first time, the Shopkeeper wanted to do it again, and for over a decade, he did not stop. There weren’t enough staff at the restaurant, so he hired a few more helpers.

The townspeople were furious when they found out. Although the Spring Breeze Building’s business was usually not very good, it had been open for over a decade, and they occasionally ate there. They couldn’t believe that the Shopkeeper was so heartless, killing people for meat to save money.

"You heartless bastard, I’ve always taken care of you...you

...actually do something so devoid of conscience." An old lady happened to have a basket of eggs, and in her anger, she took one and threw it at the Shopkeeper’s face.

Everyone in the town definitely had eaten at the Spring Breeze Building before, and they learned that the meat they had been eating was human flesh.

Some felt extremely nauseated and vomited on the side, while others, more resilient, took eggs from the old lady’s basket and threw them at the Shopkeeper, saying to her, "Old lady, I’ll pay you back for the eggs later."

Eggs usually cost one wen money each.

"No need, smash that bastard, I’m happy to do it."

In the blink of an eye, the Shopkeeper was covered in a layer of egg liquid from head to toe, even his hair wasn’t spared, making him look extremely embarrassed.

Among the crowd, Xuexue saw this, and a silent smile appeared on her lips, feeling much better dealing with this Shopkeeper.

In the alleyway, Xuexue handed twenty taels of silver to the woman, as payment for the acting earlier.

"Miss, that’s too much!" the woman declined.

Xuexue glanced at the three cute little kids and said, "Take it. Even if you don’t eat, your kids still need to!"

It turned out that Xuexue found this woman at the City God Temple, where she and her three children were begging. Hearing Xuexue say there would be income in silver if they acted in a play, they agreed without hesitation.

Initially, they were dressed in rags, dirty all over. Xuexue specially arranged for them to have new clothes and cleaned them up, turning them neat and tidy.

Taking the silver, the woman expressed her deep gratitude. This silver was very important for them, and they no longer needed to sleep on the streets with their kids.

"You all kneel quickly and thank our great benefactor." As the woman spoke, she was the first to kneel and knocked her head towards Xuexue, the three little kids followed suit.

"Thank you, great benefactor."

The three little kids said in their childish voices.

Xuexue: "Alright, don’t be so formal, get up! Take your children and go live well somewhere else!"

The woman smiled: "Now that we have money for travel, we are preparing to return to our hometown.

Xuexue bid farewell to the woman and her children, then got onto the carriage heading straight to the Capital.

Traveling for three days and nights, as the Capital got closer, Xuexue felt inexplicably excited. She had been missing for so many days, who knew what Long Rui’s condition was.

"Master, Master, Master here." While happily eating at an inn, Xuexue heard Xiao Jiu’s voice in her ears.

Xuexue was eating when she looked up and saw Xiao Jiu flying over, she was both shocked and delighted. Although this place wasn’t far from the Capital, it wasn’t close either. Xiao Jiu couldn’t have flown over by itself.

"Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu, who brought you here?"

"Evildoers, Evildoers, it’s the Evildoers."

The Evildoer in Xiao Jiu’s mouth was undeniably Long Rui; although Xiao Jiu was so mighty now, chattering away, it dared not even make a sound in Long Rui’s presence.
