"He’s going to eat you!"
Wang Yueyue kept tempting Han Xiaoyue, trying to get her to flee from the internet cafe owner... but the latter remained unmoved, even showing a hint of shyness.
"What the heck?"
"Hey, did you hear, the al from Boss Wang is for you guys, take it or leave it, do you want so, Ling Pingzhi? Here’s your portion first."
"I do, I do, I do!" Ling Pingzhi grabbed a food container and scurried into his private booth.
Wang Yueyue took the food container and secretly thought, "I must see what it is. Could it be... even better than Grandma’s dumplings?!"
But when Wang Yueyue opened the al box, she was completely stupefied.
Spread on top was a layer of golden yellow chicken at!
Strands of multicolored light, like rainbows in the sky, circled around the at, giving it the appearance of the legendary dragon at.
Near the slices of at was a white ceramic cup filled with an unbelievably exquisite fish broth, the ethereal white mist forming spiritual energy that wafted into her nose and rose to her brain with a faint fragrance.
There were also the grains of rice, like pearls, filled with a spiritual charm.
All the delicacies of the world lost their allure in that instant, including the beauty before her eyes.
Most importantly, there was the Monkey Wine, droplet by droplet shining brilliantly, like the nectar containing the essence of moonlight as ntioned in Taoist legends.
"Is this... for ?" Wang Yueyue suddenly snapped back to reality, her prior crumbling thoughts completely dissipating.
One shouldn’t accept rewards without rit, gaining sothing ans losing sothing.
"Yeah, one portion each, no more than that."
"I’m off!"
Han Xiaoyue completed her task and fled like smoke.
This person truly crumbled badly, rely standing in front of her one could feel the overwhelming malice.
...
...
Wang Yueyue held the al box, struggling to endure, constantly swallowing saliva.
"Can there really be such deliciousness?"
Even without tasting it, she was certain, this al was more delectable than a human soul.
"Don’t think you can tempt with this... As long as I don’t eat, there’s no price to pay!" She slowly turned her head away.
But!
Ever since she was forcefully transford into a human, she had not yet enjoyed human food!
With this thought, she felt herself to be the most pitiful person in the world, not even having a al to eat.
Her entire face began to slowly crumble again.
From outside ca snuffling sounds, clearly her "fated nesis" who often ridiculed her, enjoying a delicious al.
Wang Yueyue just from hearing the eating noises was nearly driven to tears with craving.
The wafting fragrance sneaked in, constantly eroding her rationality. Saliva secreted in her mouth like a waterfall, and that al seed to be waving at her.
Price, price!
Price!
"Can’t... can’t I just eat my al?"
"No, that’s wrong, it was you who forced to eat, not wanting it myself." Wang Yueyue found her excuse.
"One day, I’ll overco the boss here and escape from this dungeon devoid of daylight!"
At this mont, emotions once again overpowered reason, and she no longer cared whether there were traps hidden within.
Today, she just wanted to indulge in a feast.
...
...
"How do Grandma’s dumplings compare to this, I wonder. Would it taste even better?"
"Damn it, I actually lost my senses just now... Damn it!"
Wang Yueyue nibbled away little by little at the exquisite al, taking an entire evening, and finally began to chew and savor each grain of rice ticulously.
As she ate, she cursed herself for her gluttony and falling for the trap.
Finally, not a trace of oil was left; she ate up the entire box and even the spoon, still unsatisfied.
"It’s... it’s gone, how can it be gone?!"
...
...
On the other side, after completing her task, Han Xiaoyue flew back ho.
Wang Hao had already set out the dishes and was eating and drinking by himself, his evil thoughts gradually calming down. He thought his previous ideas were sick; how could he even think of eating his cousin?
What could be more delicious than the al he prepared himself?
"How does it feel to be in college?"
"It’s similar to high school, very busy."
"The idea that college is more relaxed is just a lie." Xiaoyue sat at the dinner table, complaining a bit, "Can’t play on the computer, have to do howork every day, along with night study, and I still need to read English in the morning, at least there’s no more Chinese."
"I never said college was relaxing." Old Wang quickly denied any association, "It must be your high school teachers who said that, such claims have misled countless students."
Han Xiaoyue took a bite of the food and broke out in a slight sweat, "What did you gain from half a month out there in high spirits?"
"Half a month nurturing my spirit and nature, I’m feeling fantastic!"
Wang Hao poured her another glass of wine, "On the first day of giving up the internet, I couldn’t stop thinking about touching my phone, felt like losing a piece of flesh, utterly distracted."
"That’s the so-called internet addiction."
"But gradually, as my mind settled down, I was able to appreciate the beauty of nature, and my past desires slowly faded away. Eventually, I achieved the state of Unity of Heaven and Man. Next ti we’ll go and enjoy the beauty of nature together when we have a chance."
"Unity of Heaven and Man? That sounds so Mysterious." Han Xiaoyue took a sip of wine, the sweet breath turning into mist in her mouth.
Just one sip had her a bit intoxicated.
