Li Mo Doesn't Want Me Anymore? A New Punishment Is Out

After coming downstairs, Li Mo arrived at the door.

The hot pot restaurant has reopened.

Everything seems unchanged.

The kitchen is still Zuoqiu Yang, but the owner behind the counter has changed to Mei Yun, and the little ones are busy running around the shop.

Jiang Chulong, with her slender frame clad in a loose hemp robe, moved about the hall carrying a plate. Although her eyes were blindfolded, she still moved with ease.

The clothes were worn by Li Mo when she was a boss; she washed them and couldn't bear to throw them away.

Without even turning around, Jiang Chulong knew who had come down. She ran over timidly, wiping her hands on her apron.

"Big Brother Li..."

"Are you having so much fun working?"

Li Mo couldn't help but smile at her appearance.

Who can find joy in doing manual labor?

But when applied to Princess Little Jiang, it seems quite normal.

"Yes... I'm very happy."

Jiang Chulong nodded seriously.

"Useless things... are... are just trash."

"Now... I can help Big Brother Li..."

Li Mo: "..."

What kind of enterprise-level understanding?

"Do things that make you happy."

"But... helping Big Brother Li... makes me very happy..."

Jiang Chulong tilted her head.

Li Mo said helplessly, "Then I'll leave this shop to you."

Jiang Chulong suddenly froze, the smile on her face vanishing.

"Big Brother Li, are you going back?"

"Mmm."

Li Mo nodded, and sighed with some emotion:

"Now that you own a hot pot restaurant, you'll never have to worry about food and drink."

"With your Aunt Mei by your side, you're not afraid of bad people."

"I can say that I have achieved my goal."

He had originally planned to bring Jiang Chulong back to Clear Abyss Sect.

However, considering her status, it would be better for her to stay in the Prefecture City.

Besides, there's Mei Yun, this young auntie is still being hunted down by the Heaven Patrol Guard.

For some reason, the search and arrest operation seemed to be all bark and no bite.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Li Mo entrusted the hot pot restaurant to them for management.

This is probably the best arrangement.

Just as Little Li was feeling a sense of accomplishment...

Jiang Chulong's face turned deathly pale, and she murmured in a trembling voice:

"Big Brother Li... don't you want me anymore?"

"Ah?"

Li Mo was taken aback.

"From now on... Big Brother Li... won't... come to see me anymore?"

Jiang Chulong seemed to have lost her soul, and the cloth strip over her eyes was stained with a wet patch.

Princess Little Jiang, your style has completely changed!

"Clam??"

Li Mo was bewildered.

Now that we have a place to live, we'll be set for life.

Shouldn't you be happy?

Why are you crying?

For a princess to be reduced to working as a cook in a hot pot restaurant is truly a fall from grace.

But it's still much better than before, isn't it?

Princess Little Jiang's thought process is just as unpredictable as Ice Block's ability to change her mind like flipping through a book.

Li Mo felt that women were harder to understand than swords.

"Big Brother Li... please don't abandon me... I..."

Jiang Chulong tried her best to hold back, but her eyes were like a broken faucet.

Li Mo: "..."

Although he did nothing wrong.

But why does he always feel like he's being overwhelmed by guilt?

The surrounding diners were all giving him looks that suggested he was a beast; if he didn't calm them down soon, someone might come up and "take matters into their own hands."

Those who frequently come here for hot pot all assume that Jiang Chulong is the previous owner's daughter.

You've misunderstood; I didn't mean that.

"Really... really?"

"My hot pot recipe is a family heirloom. I'm entrusting such an important thing to you, so I'll be coming back regularly to check on the business."

"Thank you... Big Brother Li... Big Brother Li is the best."

Jiang Chulong stopped crying and started laughing.

"Also, practice your martial arts diligently. When you reach the Inner Breath Realm, I'll give you a gift."

Li Mo helplessly patted her head.

"Um!"

Jiang Chulong nodded quickly, "I... I have twelve meridians... I'll try my best..."

"It's just... it's the martial arts I'll be practicing later... I haven't decided yet."

She has been practicing the martial arts she created.

Li Mo, the Teacher Heavenly Venerable, temporarily gave that martial art a name: <Wild Grass Sword Scripture>.

By continuously integrating and mastering other Swordsmanship techniques and skills, and absorbing the strengths of various schools, one can continuously become stronger.

Once we get back to the mountain, we need to find some more Swordsmanship to teach her.

Li Mo thought to himself, then whispered:

"Haste makes waste, so don't be too impatient."

"Uh-huh!"

Go quickly.

Li Mo patted her head again, and Princess Little Jiang reluctantly returned to the kitchen.

Hearing that a gift had been prepared for her, her steps became much lighter.

Mei Yun, who works at the front desk, saw all of this.

But after a moment of silence, he only let out a soft sigh.

If Chulong can live a normal life after this, that would be the best ending...

Isn't this what His Majesty has been painstakingly working towards?

Princess Little Jiang has been calmed down.

What sword technique should we assign her?

"With my current contribution points, I can visit the sixth floor of the Scripture Pavilion several times."

Li Mo thought to himself as he rode in the carriage.

"By the way, why hasn't Ice Block arrived yet?"

Thinking about what happened not long ago, Li Mo felt a headache coming on.

Ice Block is his biggest financial backer.

It feels like their relationship has gone back to square one overnight.

Thinking of this, he looked to the side and saw Shang Wu sleeping soundly, her arms and legs undisturbed, showing no signs of sleepiness.

Master is still easier to understand.

The beautiful master can be easily appeased with alcohol and sleep, but the icy heart of the Ice Block requires much more consideration...

Not long after.

Ying Bing also got into the car.

The carriage slowly began to move, heading towards Clear Abyss Sect.

They remained silent the entire way.

Ying Bing her eyes lowered the entire time.

Li Mo didn't know what to say.

I remained silent, and you didn't say much either.

,,,,,

As evening approached, we finally arrived at the Autumn Water Pavilion.

Li Mo went into the kitchen.

There's some truth to the saying, "There's no place like home."

Once home, Ying Bing felt completely relaxed and at ease, a sense of peace that was inexplicably comforting.

Especially when you hear noises coming from the kitchen and see that figure busy there.

Ying Bing was no longer easily able to recall what had happened that morning.

She dressed like that.

The two were separated by only a door...

My mood returned to calm.

She asked herself the question.

"What will be the punishment for the loser next time?"

The punishment had been issued long ago, but she hadn't looked at it.

[The Loser's Punishment has been determined.]

[Punishment Condition]: "Take a bath with someone who is better than you."

[Requirement]: "Wear the Flirtatious Outfit provided by the system."

Ying Bing: "..."

Why are these punishments getting more and more excessive?

Moreover, those so-called rating rewards don't really look like rewards at all.

If the disciples of the Cassia Palace in their past lives knew that their palace mistress, who demanded that her disciples sever all emotions and desires, the Phoenix Heavenly Empress revered like a god by the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, was bathing with a man...

I'd probably want to stab myself on the spot and wonder if I was dreaming.

The problem is...

Images involuntarily flashed through Ying Bing's mind.

The bathtub at the Autumn Water Pavilion wasn't very big; two people inside would definitely be pressed together...

"Little Bing, your tea."

Shang Wu raised an eyebrow.

Little Bing is acting very strange today.

"Um?"

Ying Bing looked down and realized that the tea had overflowed, wetting the table.

Are you alright?

"I was just a little lost in thought."

Ying Bing shook her head, banishing the image from her mind.

As long as we don't lose.

Punishment is as if it doesn't exist.

Then... there's no need to think about it.

That side story content wasn't deleted either; it will be added to the side stories later if it's appropriate.
