Ma Lu, wearing his swim trunks, stepped into the hot spring pool.
The steamy water seed ready to take away his fatigue as well.
It was said that in earlier years this place was so emperor's garden, and emperors themselves would co for baths, which is why the hotel room fee wasn't cheap, costing 1280 yuan a room.
But now, that amount of money didn't really an much to Ma Lu, as Universe Infinite Canteen made 220,000 in sales just today, with Angie contributing 60,000 by herself.
This woman had just sent a ssage, boasting — "How do you like that, feeling the power of a top idol yet?"
Ma Lu replied in the water — "Felt it, nearly caused a fatality."
— "Ah?"
Angie sent a question mark emoji.
— "Never mind, you get so rest early, I'm going to take a bath."
With City B's future uncertain, Ma Lu was not in the mood for chatting.
The more money he made, the more things he had to worry about. Was this the trouble of knowing too much? He felt that even ordinary people were happier.
Seeing this ssage, Angie was full of question marks at the other end of the phone.
What the hell? Bath evasion is supposed to be her specialty.
She was very familiar with this business. When encountering soone she didn't want to continue talking to, she would throw out this line to politely end the conversation.
Yet she never expected that one day she would fall victim to this killer move.
Especially since Angie was in the midst of a passionate discussion, wanting to talk more with Ma Lu about investing in "cat pee" beer.
Originally, she planned to buy it as a gift, but because it was so delicious, she couldn't resist and had another pack when she got back.
She figured since she couldn't buy shares of Universe Infinite Canteen, starting a company together specifically to sell beer didn't seem like a bad idea.
With her popularity and the deliciousness of the "cat pee" beer, there was no reason it wouldn't be successful.
However, Ma Lu didn't even give her the chance to start talking about it.
Angie's fingers flew across the keyboard, continuing to type — "Don't go, it's not even ten o'clock yet, I'm not planning to rest."
But when she was about to send it, she hesitated, worried it might seem too eager, as if she had to chat with him.
No way, that would put her at a disadvantage, Angie thought, especially when it ca to investnts, the more eager party would be at a loss in negotiations.
She needed to maintain so composure and regain the poise of a superstar.
So, Angie resisted the urge to reply and set her phone aside.
She planned to wait for Ma Lu to send a ssage first, asking why she suddenly went quiet, and then after ten minutes, she'd casually respond with — "Busy, talk later."
To take back the initiative, she kept her eyes glued to the phone screen.
However, Ma Lu didn't care what Angie replied with at all, after sending that ssage he put his phone aside and started enjoying the hot springs.
Although the spring water wasn't as miraculous as advertised, claiming to lower blood pressure and extend lifespan, soaking in it occasionally was indeed quite relaxing.
And there were added bonuses.
He might not see He Xiaoqian and Zhen Ye from next door, but his shoebox was filled with many Valkyrie People, including Liliem.
The young girl had changed clothes; there's no way the hotel would have ready-made swimsuits for her size, so Liliem wore a gauze dress.
It looked quite conservative, but once she entered the water, the dress beca increasingly transparent.
Wow, that's a nice bonus.
And it was only then that Ma Lu noticed Liliem actually had quite a nice figure.
Though she was incomparably smaller than an average person, her proportions were quite astonishing.
Liliem also noticed Ma Lu was looking at her, so she slid further down in the water, burying half her head, but it was to no avail.
She was so small that even if she buried her head, Ma Lu could still see her.
Of course, Ma Lu didn't keep staring at her, if there were other Valkyrie people with good figures, he would also appreciate them, which was one of the pleasures of soaking in the hot springs.
As a result, Liliem seed even more depressed.
Ma Lu misunderstood her, thinking she was worrying about her brother and the scout team, so he took the initiative to approach and comforted her,
"They'll be all right, the Wandering Sorcerer said that the Red Little Devil wouldn't actively attack others, but through conspiracy and lies incite disturbances and collect negative emotions."
Liliem pouted, "Then why did you run?"
"I have done what I could, staying there wouldn't help, and in case sothing really happens, at least I could go and notify others," Ma Lu reasoned confidently.
"I'm not talking to you anymore, you always seem so sensible," Liliem said, huffing with irritation.
Ma Lu was perplexed, "Did I offend you sowhere? Why do I feel like you've been giving strange looks recently?"
"Don't you know what good things you've done?" Liliem rolled her eyes.
Ma Lu felt guilty, fearing that the girl had discovered him indulging his eyesight just now.
And when he raised his hand to scratch his head, the wave he caused pushed Liliem a little further away, thankfully she quickly paddled back through the splashes.
Seeing no other tribe mbers around, Liliem hesitated for a mont before speaking, "Last ti, in your bedroom, you poked there..."
"Where?"
"The butt."
"Oh, oh, oh, sorry," Ma Lu apologized again, his attitude very positive.
Although he felt inside that Liliem was making too much of a fuss, the incident had happened so long ago that he had almost forgotten about it, and Liliem seed to have no issues either.
Why was she still holding onto it?
But then he heard the girl continue, "... and then I ford a precious mory that would be passed down through the tribe."
"What?" It was Ma Lu's turn to be shocked.
"Aren't only very valuable experiences supposed to form mories worth passing on? Does that an no one in your tribe has ever been… um, poked before?"
Liliem covered her face, looking forlorn.
"I don't know, the formation of mories does follow so patterns, but it's not sothing we can really control; I… don't want future generations to rember like that."
"Is there any way to erase that mory?" Ma Lu empathized deeply.
Liliem's answer was filled with despair, "No."
"..."
Yet Ma Lu hadn't given up, "The mories you pass on are usually just short clips, right? How long do they last, is there a particular order to them?"
"It's hard to say, short ones might not even last a second, while longer ones can go for an hour or two, or even several days."
Liliem said, "But the mory I ford before should not exceed a few seconds because nothing else morable happened afterward. As for the order… it doesn't necessarily follow the ti they are ford. Future generations may suddenly receive a piece of mory from their ancestors while doing sothing at a certain ti."
"That will make things easier," Ma Lu snapped his fingers.
"Hmm?"
"mory is like text, it can be altered in aning by adjusting the order of sequence and combination," Ma Lu explained.
Liliem was smart and quickly understood what Ma Lu ant, "You're saying that I can create several more heritage mories to distort that embarrassing one."
"That's the idea." Continue reading at empire
"But I can't just create heritage mories as I wish, and how should I explain it to gloss over such an embarrassing incident."
"Well… I don't know that, just a general direction," Ma Lu said, "You don't have to worry too much, where there's a will, there's a way, and there will certainly be a solution later."
