Cousin Enters the Doghouse

Dongshui City.

Crystal Revolving Restaurant.

This was the finest restaurant in Eastwater, gathering master chefs from all over the world.

The finest flavors and the most refined tastes were all gathered here.

The restaurant occupied three entire floors at the top of Dongshui Building, the city's tallest landmark.

On the restaurant's first floor, gentle music played as courteous waiters served every distinguished guest who came to dine.

The restaurant operated on an invitation-only membership system. Only those guaranteed by three members were eligible to join.

At that moment, Ouyang Tian was having lunch with his girlfriend Saya in a corner by the window.

From this lofty vantage point, they could take in the scenery of all Eastwater.

"That over there is the Eastwater River. It flows all the way into the East Sea and changed course many times throughout history. Later, a certain dynasty went to great lengths to recruit a group of Otherworldly Users. Only through the Great Prophecy Art did they realize they needed to establish green conservation zones upstream, restrain the waters downstream to scour away sediment, build reservoirs, dig tributaries, and carry out irrigation before they could completely solve the perennial problem of the river changing course." He showed off his pitiful scrap of historical knowledge to Saya.

Fortunately, she merely nodded, indicating that everything he said was correct.

Just as he was getting into it, however, an unpleasant voice reached his ears.

"Oh? Isn't this Young Master Ouyang? Why haven't you visited my villa lately? The girls all miss you terribly."

It was a somewhat frivolous male voice.

Without raising his head, Ouyang Tian pretended not to hear, hoping the newcomer would read the room and leave on his own.

But the man walked right over.

Ouyang Tian had no choice but to look up.
