"Of course, but if I can't finish it, I can store it in the System Space. The next time I take it out, it will be stored at the same moment, which means I've eaten all the food at once."

Su Rui emphasized, glanced at the menu, and ordered several more dishes.

Faced with the somewhat puzzled question from the receptionist, Su Rui said impatiently:

"Anyway, it's not like I'm not paying. You just need to cook it well and bring it up. There are a lot of people here, so of course we can finish it."

Actually, Su Rui wanted to take some of it with her as snacks. Syracuse has a rich food culture, at least more so than Columbia or Victoria.

Columbia is a melting pot, with no shortage of delicious food, while in Victoria, the Gaul Victoria.

"Then eat more, but remember not to overeat, and eat within your limits."

Vulpisfoglia smiled, "I don't want my husband to eat himself into a gas cylinder."

'Of course not, in fact, my body might not even be able to sustain itself until then.'

Su Rui said irritably, then ended the call with Vulpisfoglia, because the delicious food had arrived.

Volume 7, Chapter 441: Wake up, you silly dog!

"Get up, you silly dog! And Lavinia too! We haven't had lunch yet!"

After the waiter helped arrange a large amount of food in the living room, Su Rui stored some of it into her system expansion, then abruptly opened the door and patted Lappland and Lavinia on the shoulder in an annoyed manner.

"Hmm~ Is that silly dog talking about me?"

Lappland looked at Su Rui with some confusion. Although her relationship with Su Rui might not have been very friendly because of her actions just now, Lappland really didn't expect Su Rui to treat her with such a form of address.

"Hmm, I can't explain that to you. I thought you, Lappland, were a stupid dog."

Su Rui stood with her hands on her hips, meeting Lappland's gaze without a hint of worry, then reached out and patted her on the shoulder:

"Alright, don't waste my time, hurry up, it's time for lunch."

Lappland reached out and grabbed Su Rui's wrist, sniffed it gently, and then rubbed it against Su Rui's hand:

"Okay, I understand."

"You still say you're not a stupid dog." Su Rui muttered under her breath as she watched Lappland walk out of the bedroom. Lappland twitched her ears, a cryptic smile playing on her lips, and sat down on the sofa.

Su Rui gently patted Lavinia's cheek with her tail, waking her from her slumber.

"What's wrong? Wake up, you need to get some sleep and rest."

Su Rui deliberately spoke in a gentle tone, but she had no intention of letting Lavinia continue to rest.

Lavinia didn't understand the logic in Su Rui's words for a moment, staring blankly at Su Rui before finally coming to her senses:

"If you want me to rest on time, why not just not wake me up at all?" Lavinia couldn't understand the reason at all.

"Because I didn't come to wake you up for sleep, I came to wake you up for lunch." Su Rui smacked Lavinia's cheek with her big tail again, annoyed. "Get up right now!"

"Hmm~" Lavinia hugged the big tail that Su Rui was slapping on her cheek and answered in a muffled voice before slowly sitting up from the bed.

"Oh, you're finally awake? I thought you two were planning to continue your lovemaking inside."

Lappland greeted Su Rui and Lavinia with a half-smile, scrutinizing them carefully from head to toe.

Lavinia awkwardly avoided Lappland's gaze and sat a little further away from her.

Su Rui sat down on the single sofa, casually picked up a piece of mille-feuille, and didn't answer Lappland's question.

Since it was unnecessary, Lappland hadn't expected to get an answer anyway.

However, after her question was ignored, Lappland glanced at Lavinia sitting on the other side, then turned to ask Su Rui:

"So, now that our judge has been persuaded by you, is the matter of Wolseini temporarily settled?"

"What else did you think? You've already caused a scene in downtown Wolseini, what else do you want to do here?"

Su Rui gave Lappland a disgruntled look, continued eating her mille-feuille, and mumbled:

"You actually have a plan for what's to come, right? Of course, it's to get the attention..."

"New Wolseini." Lappland picked up where Su Rui left off, nodding. "After all, it's a place the families have gone to great lengths to obtain. Now they've all been excluded, but I'm sure they won't give up trying to extend their reach into that city."

"Hmm, that's not my concern. After all, I won't be staying in Wolseini or Syracuse forever."

Su Rui shrugged. Lappland didn't ask any further questions, but simply smiled and began eating her lunch. Lavinia, however, gave Su Rui and Lappland a questioning look.

"Your plan isn't over yet? What will happen next?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Everything will proceed smoothly from here on out, and there won't be any unexpected incidents."

Su Rui smiled at Lavinia, "However, if Lavinia wants to come along, that's fine too."

"...I want to go with them." Lavinia thought for a moment. If she stayed here, even if she insisted on enforcing the law, under the current framework of Wolseini, it would still be impossible to bring all criminals to justice.

So although she was upholding justice, her efficiency was still too low.

So, why not go with Su Rui to New Wolseini? Maybe we can find a solution or some new inspiration.

Lappland's eyes flickered. "So, how does Su Rui plan to get us there? By pretending to be tourists? Or do you have another way?"

"What are you thinking?" Su Rui looked at Lappland with some doubt. "Although Mrs. Sicilian forbids the family's influence from going there, you should know that there aren't any checkpoints there specifically to check this matter. Why don't you just go directly there?"

"... You didn't make any plans in this regard?"

"There's no need to prepare," Su Rui said irritably. "If you really want to find something to do, I think being a taxi driver would suit you quite well."

"Taxi driver? Maybe. I'm somewhat interested; perhaps I could give it a try."

Lappland nodded without saying anything more, while Lavinia looked at Su Rui: "What about me? Don't I have any plans either?"

"Yes, I'm going to New Wolseini to meet a few people, but it's not really important, so you can come with me, or go by yourself."

Lavinia nodded. "I'll go with you."

Anticipating this, Su Rui didn't say much, simply giving Lavinia a casual reply, then mentally connecting it to Vulpisfoglia:

'It seems like it's time for Penguin Logistics to return to Lungmen, isn't it?'

'Yeah, Penguin Logistics is planning to go back tomorrow, so I'll come back to the hotel to see you tomorrow too. What's wrong? Are you going to miss those two?'

Vulpisfoglia's words carried a hint of teasing and a touch of sourness.

'It's nothing, I just wanted to let you know that I'm planning to go to New Wolseini next. Do you need to make any preparations?'

'No problem, is it still because of your and Lappland's plans? What preparations do I need to make?'

From my perspective, we don't need to prepare anything, but Vulpisfoglia, please let me know if you need anything.

"No need, but I do want to take Suzuran to see New Wolseini. After all, it's a relatively new city in Syracuse, and I wonder if it will be any different."

'Different things may not happen, but there will definitely be a Fireworks Festival in New Wolseini, which we can enjoy with Suzuran.'

Volume 7, Chapter 442: You Go Drive a Taxi

However, although they said they would participate in the Fireworks Festival, neither Lavinia, Lappland, nor Vulpisfoglia anticipated that the Fireworks Festival Su Rui was talking about would be a year later.

"... Why are you looking at me like that? A year isn't much. Sometimes I sleep through decades."

Su Rui shrugged, facing the three people sitting in front of him listening to his explanation. Well, Little Suzuran was sitting in Su Rui's lap at the moment, so there were only four people in front of Su Rui.

"I know, but you've probably been by my side for more than a year. The last time Exusiai was with you, she was only with you for a few months."

As Vulpisfoglia spoke, she felt a sense of relief, because she realized that she had spent the longest time with Su Rui among all the hosts. After her, the hosts only spent a few months with Su Rui, while Vulpisfoglia had lived with Su Rui for many years.

This is also what Vulpisfoglia is worried about. Since Su Rui's stay time is not fixed each time, he may not be able to stay here for another year.

Su Rui shook her head. "Don't worry, actually, I just... cough cough... anyway, I just found out that I'll be here until the next celebration ends."

Su Rui's words made Suzuran of the Valley in her arms twitch her ears happily, and her big tail swayed in Su Rui's arms. Anyone who saw it could tell that Suzuran was very happy at that moment.

Su Rui reached out and pinched Lily of the Suzuran's cheek, telepathically telling Vulpisfoglia, "Actually, this is something I fought for. I had a fight with Old Deng just so I could stay by your side for another year. How about that? I love you enough, don't I?"

'Yes, it would be even better if you could stay by my side longer.'

Vulpisfoglia smiled, and in her happiness, she didn't make any further demands.

For Su Rui, achieving all this must have been very difficult, right?

Although Su Rui's attitude towards the Upper System is never very polite, if he wants the Upper System to make concessions, Su Rui will probably have to pay a price.

As Vulpisfoglia thought this, her gaze towards Su Rui was filled with tenderness:

"Then, shouldn't we take this year to rest and recuperate?"

"We should enjoy this year; it takes a year to recover there."

As Su Rui spoke, she clapped her hands while holding Suzuran, and said to Lappland and Lavinia:

"Alright, I've finished speaking. You two can go back now. I'll contact you when the time comes, don't worry, I'll be right on time."

Lavinia hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "I understand, but... where do you plan to spend this year?"

"Of course it's in Lungmen... huh?"

Su Rui glanced at Vulpisfoglia with a puzzled look, then looked at Lappland and Lavinia and changed her tune:

"Ahem, I mean, it's in New Wolseini. It's a pretty good new city. I'll treat this year here as a vacation."

Vulpisfoglia nodded in satisfaction. With Su Rui as her teacher, there was no need to worry about Suzuran's studies. However, she was a little worried that Su Rui might spoil Suzuran too much.

Suzuran is already so old, it's normal for her to go out and do some things, but Su Rui is showing a very protective attitude. Vulpisfoglia is very worried that Su Rui's excessive pampering will prevent Suzuran from developing herself.

"Your eyes tell me you're definitely thinking something rude, right?"

Su Rui glanced at Vulpisfoglia with annoyance, then said:

"It looks like we'll be spending a lot more time together. Lappland and you two are also going to New Wolseini, right? How about I make the arrangements for you?"

"Okay, so, what are your plans for me?"

Lappland gave a subtle smile, looking at Su Rui in front of her, waiting for Su Rui's answer.

Lavinia hesitated, saying, "I have no problem with working in New Wolseini, but the job transfer will probably take some time."

"No problem, with me here, the job transfer is a very simple matter."

Su Rui clapped her hands. "Then, it's settled. Lavinia's transfer order will be delivered to you soon. Welcome to New Wolseini then."

Lavinia nodded and said nothing more. She already understood enough about the boy's extraordinary abilities and had no doubt that Su Rui could do what he said.

Lappland urged impatiently:

"And what about me? Tell me, what are you planning to do with me?"

"Didn't I already tell you? You can work as a taxi driver in New Wolseini."

As Su Rui spoke, she glanced at Lappland with a puzzled look. "I've even prepared a taxi for you."

"Ready? Where?"

"Here, I'll give you a map. You'll need to go get it yourself. Remember to bring car repair tools and a staff; you need to charge the car's Originium Engine."

"... What you prepared for me, it's not some abandoned taxi in the wilderness, is it?"

Lappland's lips twitched involuntarily. "I have to fix it myself? I can just buy one with my own money, I'm not short of cash."

"But this is fun! Don't worry, it's quite convenient to get from here to New Wolseini."

As Su Rui spoke, she pushed her phone in front of Lappland. Although she certainly couldn't help Lappland find the taxi that would be abandoned in the wilderness a year later, with her ability to Scanning Vision, it would be quite easy to find a wrecked taxi that wasn't heavily insured.

Lappland sighed, picked up Su Rui's phone, glanced at it, and shook his head.

"How about you try a different approach? Like, how about I steal one from the taxi company?"

Lavinia looked at Lappland, "Is it really appropriate to say this in front of the judge?"

"I don't object to that. After all, the taxi company is owned by a mafia family. They make dirty money so quickly and easily, they don't need another taxi."

Su Rui nodded. Lavinia, who was listening to their conversation, coughed softly, got up, and went outside.

"That's all for today. I won't disturb you any longer; I'll head back now."

"Okay, have a safe trip."

Su Rui waved to Lavinia and watched Lavinia leave.

Lappland smiled as she looked at the newly appeared map and markers on her phone. Su Rui had already prepared a new plan for her, and she was very efficient.

"You've prepared very well. Well then, I'll give it a try being a taxi driver."
