The following morning.
Upon waking up, Tang Xian wasn't in a hurry to find Ju Mang. The various changes unfolding within Pyramid didn't affect his calm state of mind.
He picked up the list of various beasts he'd written down the night before and first went to Qiao Shanshan's clinic.
There were actually quite a few patients in Baichuan City. Although the population was only about three thousand, these people lived year-round in deep underground places full of rot and decay, and the diseases in their bodies were extrely difficult to cure.
She and the bell-robed individual were very busy, but they did have the assistance of the elental fog for so of the physical tasks.
Tang Xian arrived early, just as the clinic had opened its doors.
"Why are you here?"
"The things at Pyramid are settled, so naturally, I'm back to check in."
Qiao Shanshan nodded and asked,
"Did it go smoothly?"
"Not so smoothly."
"Not smoothly? What about Song Que?"
Tang Xian said lightly, chuckling,
"Aren't you still a mber of my team? Why not be concerned about first?"
"Nothing that could kill you has been born yet, but there are many things that could kill Song Que," Qiao Shanshan retorted, not caring about Tang Xian.
Tang Xian was heartened that, though he hadn't been away long, the won of Baichuan City had all beco sharp-tongued.
"Although I lost a round, Song Que is safe. My arrangents for him were quite thorough, and he will return soon. Your Song Family clinic won't be in danger."
Qiao Shanshan beca anxious,
"What Song Family clinic? What are you blabbering about?!"
Tang Xian ignored Qiao Shanshan's pretend anger and continued,
"Regarding the matter of love, I can't provide many examples, but Tang Suoye was very proactive with Akasi.
My sister was also very proactive with Shang Lu, plus so... well, my own feelings, one should always take the initiative in life."
Qiao Shanshan looked disparagingly at Tang Xian, thinking that this was a legitimate opportunity to scorn him:
"Tsk, a virgin."
"..."
"I've been the one giving advice and strategies to the second miss; I don't need your teaching. Go away, I'll have patients coming for their follow-up soon, don't disrupt my work."
Tang Xian thought to himself that everything in the Divine Kingdom was indeed accurate, although being mocked by Qiao Shanshan, he was still certain of one thing—she liked Song Que.
But unlike Li Xiaoyu toward himself, in her case, the object of her affections was not herself.
As the boss, he was a bit oblivious. Although he couldn't offer any clever or strange tactics in love—affection should definitely be more openly expressed, and a reserved and delicate approach was not appropriate.
"I may not understand love, but I understand Song Que. The most powerful weapon for humans in this world is a resolve to risk everything.
Song Que is the kind of man who wields this weapon. If you like him, you should be more intense, because I certainly don't think he's more perceptive than I am."
After finishing, Tang Xian paused before adding,
"Also, I need so dication to help with sleep and calm the mind."
For a mont, Qiao Shanshan didn't know what to say. She knew so of Song Que's deeds; he indeed was such a man, possessing the courage to risk it all.
A man willing to risk everything was naturally cool, and those in the little world protected by him must be very happy. But to a doctor, that's akin to seeking death; one should fear death and cherish life.
She nodded her head and began to prepare Tang Xian's dication.
After receiving his dicine, Tang Xian exchanged a few pleasantries with Qiao Shanshan before leaving. They each had their own business to attend to; Qiao Shanshan had a heavy workload, but fortunately had the help of the bell-robed individual and elental fog.
Whether it was Dong Ran or Qiao Shanshan, every mber of Baichuan City's "Shengtang" team held significant status, but this position was not a result of a single person's ascent lifting everyone related.
Everyone was working hard on their own responsibilities—except Tang Feiji.
Tang Xian then went to see Tang Xiaojiu.
At this ti in the morning, Tang Xiaojiu was hugging Tang Bingxiang and lazing about in the Fresh Sense Café.
"Reincarnation" had turned Baichuan City back to such an old state instantaneously.
Many things beca reusable. Naturally, the café could again brew coffee and prepare desserts.
Liu Buding and Dong Ran had taken a particular interest in this place.
This was probably what differed from the dreamscape.
Although the two won's skills in dessert-making, coffee grinding, and even machine familiarity were just beginning, they were not lacking in enthusiastic custors—Tang Xiaojiu.
Whether it tasted good or not, Tang Xiaojiu would eat regardless.
Tang Gazi and Tang Bingxiang had also beco mascots of the shop.
Occasionally, custors would co to spend so money, pet the cats, or exchange a few words with Tang Gazi.
However, the two low-level beasts thought the opposite. This was a place of rest for the cat and bird lords, and daily, throngs of humans ca to worship them.
Tang Gazi shared the sa opinion as Tang Bingxiang regarding these people's thoughts for the first ti—a bunch of foolish humans.
This cat and bird only behaved like tad pets in front of Tang Xian.
"Brother Tang Xian!" As soon as Tang Xian walked into the café, Tang Xiaojiu ran over with short steps.
As was his habit, Tang Xian picked up Tang Xiaojiu, then looked at Dong Ran and Liu Buding at the counter and said,
"Are you two trying to fatten up with a pig? Xiaojiu has gotten even chubbier than last ti."
Tang Xiaojiu exclaid,
"I'm a little fox, Brother Tang Xian."
"Eat too much and you'll inevitably turn into a pig."
Tang Xiaojiu was startled; no one had ever ntioned this to her.
Wouldn't Sister Suoye be in danger then? If she turned into a pig, Xiaojiu would definitely not eat her!
Dong Ran was also happy to see Tang Xian because it ant that the second miss would not be so busy.
"Welco, Brother Tang,"
Tang Xian responded with a sneer, "Ah, you've managed to keep this abandoned café looking quite presentable."
