New Year's Eve

"To develop power, you need both ability and resources. Wen Keke has found a unique and excellent way. It can instantly replenish energy, and if it's disguised as an energy replenishment potion, it won't be hard to sell." Lin Nieran said as he closed the box and put it into his Dimensional Pocket.

[Doesn't the host use it?] 007 was puzzled. He noticed that the host usually kept things he didn't use here.

"Use?" Lin Nieran grabbed the little ball and flicked its round forehead with his finger. "Stupid, Wen Keke's Weird Object is a poppy, a kind of poison. It's hard to say whether the stuff it produces is addictive."

"I wouldn't dare use her things."

[What does the host need this for?]

"It's better to be prepared. Just because I don't use it doesn't mean it's useless."

The next morning, Lin Nieran got up very early, which was unusual for him.

Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and it's noticeably more lively outside than before. Even though it's just dawn, many people are already chatting and laughing on the streets.

Lin Nieran first went outside the shop to put up Spring Festival couplets on the door.

Wang Ding, who hadn't gone to provide support, walked back to the base from outside carrying his lunchbox. Seeing that the man was having some trouble putting up Spring Festival couplets by himself, he offered to help.

Lin Nieran took the tape. "Thanks, are you coming to work today?"

Wang Ding smiled and said, "That's right. If we're not comfortable with what we're doing, someone in the bureau needs to keep an eye on things at all times."

Lin Nieran looked at the military green overcoat he was wearing and laughed, "Everyone else looks quite nice, Minister, your outfit is really unique."

Wang Ding lowered his head and adjusted his glasses. "Practicality and convenience are all that matters."

After pasting up the Spring Festival couplets, Lin Nieran suddenly said, "Oh right, I just made some new Weird Object for keeping warm. Wait a minute."

He walked into the store as he spoke. Wang Ding wanted to refuse, but seeing that he had already gone into the store first, he had no choice but to wait where he was.

A short while later, Lin Nieran brought out some transparent glass beads, seven in total.

"I just made this. It generates heat by inputting energy, and the energy and heat are continuous." Lin Nieran handed it to him. "Take it and try it out, see if it works."

"This..." Wang Ding waved his hands repeatedly, "This won't do, I'll still buy it."

"Take it, it's not expensive. It's just that Weird Object are hard to find."

"I heard it's Weird Object that dropped from Instance in Luohai City. It's quite rare here, but it's not worth much." Lin Nieran patted Wang Ding on the shoulder and laughed, "I'm a bit older than you guys, so consider this a New Year's red envelope."

Holding these warm beads, Wang Ding felt the warmth in his heart was even more intense than the warmth in his hands.

"Boss Lin. I'll share it with them when I get back."

"Good."

Watching Wang Ding walk away, 007 muttered to himself, "[What a dog, host. That was a good move playing the friendship card.]"

This trick only works on honest people like Wang Ding; it won't be as effective on others.

Lin Nieran glanced at the system: "Have you been watching too many live streams these days?"

I think this word perfectly describes you.

[If Wang Ding knew that most of their suffering was caused by you, I wonder if he would still show that moved expression he just now.]

"So knowing too much isn't a good thing."

At this point, Lin Nieran slapped 007 aside. "You and Lin Yi should find some proper live streams to watch, instead of learning those nonsense things."

007 has been watching a lot of live streams these past few days, mainly because he's become obsessed with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi doesn't need to eat or sleep, so he has a lot of free time and Lin Nieran to show him live streams every day for the past few days.

Since live streaming became popular, all sorts of live streams have emerged, with the most popular being some silly and absurd live streams.

They would find a relatively easy Instance, go in to have fun, and deliberately make jokes to amuse others.

It must be said that no matter the era, there is no shortage of people who can make people laugh; mental entertainment is always more enjoyable than stress.

Sometimes 007 gets bored, so he watches movies with Lin Yi.

It's quite bizarre that two people who can't see each other are watching a live stream together. Sometimes, even 007 finds it strange.

After all, it doesn't even know whether it's actually watching the live stream with the host's personality or with thin air.

After resolving the issues at the shop, Lin Nieran arrived in the Boundless Land.

Everyone got up at this point; it was rare to have such a full group of people in this Boundless Land.

Serlandin transformed his healing aura into the shape of a door on the Lawn; his healing aura could restore people or Weird Object to their strongest state.

Bai Yang was on the other side of the door, throwing all his Puppet inside. After they came out, the Puppet were clean and white again, without him having to wash them one by one.

After helping Bai Yang, Serlandin went to help Lai'er comb the feathers on his back. He couldn't comb the feathers on the back of his wings by himself, and he lingered there for a while.

Serlandin guessed that Lai'er was trying to delay until the True Form returned; his intentions were obvious.

The Dessert Chef sat at a long table under Small Parasol, while a hat with cat ears sat obediently with its mouth wide open, being fed desserts piece by piece.

The Flower Language next to her was watching the mukbang video with great relish, seemingly even happier than if she were eating herself.

Wu Liang was lying on the floor wrapped in a blanket. Lin Nieran looked closely and realized that it was the blanket that had been covering his bed.

He walked over irritably, and before Wu Liang could even greet him with bright eyes, he first delivered a critical hit.

"Ah!" Wu Liang clutched his head.

Lin Nieran narrowed his eyes. "You took my things again? Don't you have things in your room?"

Wu Liang rubbed his head and lowered it, his long bangs framing his face as his eyes darted left and right, refusing to look at him.

007 comforted him from the side, saying, "[It's alright, it's the New Year.]"

Lin Nieran:...

"Master, I support giving him a beating." The Dessert Chef grinned and leaned closer.

Flower Language nodded, her eyebrows drooping. "If Master is tired, I can take over."

Serlandin pondered, "Then I can treat him without delaying the New Year."

Lai'er has already raised its large wings, ready to swat people.

"Go wash my blanket." Lin Nieran ultimately didn't do it and chased Wu Liang away.

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang happily left.

Lin Nieran:... I always felt that this wasn't a punishment for him, but rather a kind of reward.

"What about the others?" Lin Nieran asked.

"They're still busy cleaning." The Dessert Chef kept saying sarcastically, "They're too slow. Sweetie finished cleaning very quickly."

Lin Nieran praised all the different Vest, then went to look around the room.

Night Moon and the Butler were busy reconciling accounts, while Wang, Modian, Black Cat, and Cheng Shanshi were tinkering with dough in the kitchen. The Writer was nowhere to be seen.

Lin Nieran arrived at the Writer's room, pushed open the door, and saw him sitting in Wheelchair with his back to him, wrapped in something, looking mysterious.

"Ji Fengbai, you're the only one missing, why aren't you here yet?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, the Writer hurriedly stuffed his belongings into the blanket covering his legs.
