Xiaoying 10086 Ships This Couple

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

Cong Yu, his forehead beaded with cold sweat, looked at Little Shadow beside him, her face beaming with smiles, and reassured Zongzheng Ximei with lingering fear, "You can continue, don't worry about me."

After being comforted by Cong Yu, Zongzheng Ximei stopped apologizing and began to seriously fiddle with the cocktail shakers.

The drink from the Cong Yu is called "Blackberry Special," made by mixing champagne, syrup, and lemon juice and pouring it into a glass filled with crushed ice.

Then drizzle with some blackberry liqueur, and finally garnish with blackberries and mint leaves. It looks beautiful and has a low alcohol content.

It's a cocktail with very low alcohol content, so you won't taste much alcohol in your mouth... which will save you from being nagged by Yaochuan Guang when you get home tonight.

Sigh, even though we're not married yet, he's already prematurely transitioned into being afraid of his wife. It's truly remarkable.

But there's no need to worry about it so much...

Afterwards, I'll go take a bath at Saint King's place.

As Cong Yu was thinking this, Zongzheng Ximei skillfully poured the chopped ingredients into the cocktail shaker, gently shaking it to mix the various components thoroughly.

They seem quite skilled; at least they look quite professional.

Little Shadow watched Zongzheng Ximei's every move with admiration in her eyes, probably because she thought she was learning very quickly...

Then, Zongzheng Ximei carefully poured the prepared cocktail into a stemmed glass and gently sprinkled a layer of sugar on top.

Then I searched for a long time but couldn't find blueberries in the ingredients list.

After hesitating for a moment, Zongzheng Ximei casually picked up a strawberry, handed it to Cong Yu, and coughed lightly, saying, "Please enjoy."

Cong Yu looked up at the blueberry basket placed behind Zongzheng Ximei's head...

Well, aside from the rice noodles, the strawberries are pretty good too.

It's good that you can get fruit in Japan.

Taking a sip of his drink, Cong Yu looked at Zongzheng Ximei, whose face was filled with anticipation. He nodded and gave a positive response. "Pretty good."

In response, Zongzheng Ximei gave a typical high school student's reaction—she smiled shyly and said nothing more.

Of course, Cong Yu doesn't need to pay for his drinks.

This is what cadres are like!

Tereido nearby, also ordered a drink, reached into her pocket, pulled out a bill, and handed it to him without even looking at it. "The extra is for your tip."

This... is what a rich woman is like!

Little Shadow scoffed at Cong Yu's words, "Don't you even know who taught you that... So, what brings you here today?"

"..." To this, Cong Yu didn't say anything like, "Can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong?" He simply stated his purpose. "Give me a clone, and I'll take you to Europe to meet your people."

Upon hearing Cong Yu's words, Little Shadow was suddenly stunned. "My kin... what do you mean? You mean other Monster?"

Here, Little Shadow is not referring to ordinary Monster, but rather Monster like herself that have taken human form.

"Yes, it would take a long time to explain... Never mind, I'll explain it to you slowly, there's no rush anyway."

As she spoke, Cong Yu propped herself up at the bar, drinking her wine while recounting the entire incident to Little Shadow.

Little Shadow was clear about some of it; Cong Yu mainly talked about what happened after those Monster arrived in Europe and the agreement he made with the Saint King.

And there's that prophecy about the Demon King [Light Night].

At this point, Cong Yu couldn't help but ask Little Shadow a question, saying, "So, in the Monster Tongue, is the pronunciation of [Light Night] really 'gurgle gurgle gurgle'?"

Cong Yu had really wanted to know this before.

Was it those Monster playing a trick on them...?

"More or less... After all, you can't expect Monster to make any noise other than roars, gurgling, and snoring. How much difference is there in the pronunciation of their languages?"

Little Shadow responded like that, then realized something and guessed, "So, you want me to spy on them?"

That's a really harsh way to put it...

That is indeed the case.

I prefer to call it something like "witnessing".

As Cong Yu was saying this, the bar door was pushed open, and Dente walked in, dragging large bags and small packages.

Panting, she handed the things to Tereido.

"Here you go! I've run errands for you, Stone City you wanted... I'm exhausted, I'll ask someone else next time!"

Tereido smiled at her words and said, "This is something I'm planning to make into a magical tool. I'll give you one later."

Upon hearing this, Dente's attitude changed 180 degrees. "Really? Thank you, sister!"

"..." Cong Yu: Joy--

"Jingle--"

With the crisp sound of bells, the bar door was pushed open once again, and everyone looked towards the entrance once more.

Then...

Cong Yu, holding the triangular cup, met Yaochuan Guang's gaze.

Cong Yu: "..."

Yaochuan Guang: "..."

Chapter 293 Little Shadow wants to ship this couple

Tonight we're having sukiyaki.

However, the food reserves at home are still lacking some ingredients for a standard sukiyaki... such as konjac and tofu.

So Yaochuan Guang would buy some on his way home from school.

"Little Guang, are you here to buy groceries again?"

Inside the supermarket, a familiar housewife struck up a conversation with Yaochuan Guang, who also inexplicably possessed the air of a housewife.

"Yes, Auntie."

Yaochuan Guang responded politely, smiling as he addressed the housewife... They weren't actually very close; they had only met a few times.

However, I often see this supermarket when I'm buying groceries.

What should I buy today?

The housewife asked curiously.

"I want to make sukiyaki, so I'll buy some tofu and stock up on other ingredients while I'm at it... What about you, Auntie?"

As Yaochuan Guang made this remark, he picked up a box of tofu.

"Make curry..."

The housewife said with a smile, her face beaming, "Your family is so lucky; you can cook at such a young age."

Faced with the praise, Yaochuan Guang didn't know how to respond, so he could only smile awkwardly and shyly and nod slightly.

Just then, a little boy ran over, grabbed the housewife's hand, and said, "Mommy, I want Häagen-Dazs."

The woman's expression changed instantly. She reached out and punched the little boy's forehead repeatedly, yelling, "Häagen-Dazs- Dazs! All you ever think about is Häagen-Dazs!"

"Waaaaaah!!"

The little boy screamed and ran away, while the housewife chased after him and beat him.

"Hahaha..."

Yaochuan Guang watched this farce, smiled sheepishly, then his expression turned melancholic... Family?

Her family... are already...

"..." However, as always, the emotion called "sorrow" did not linger in Yaochuan Guang's heart for long.

This melancholy only lasted until Yaochuan Guang boarded the tram, because there was nothing left to worry about.

She has now found a new family.

Thinking this, Yaochuan Guang was tapping on his phone when he noticed something... It was a familiar person wearing red.

D? Isn't that Senior D?

Yaochuan Guang noticed Dente standing at the tram exit, carrying a large number of bags that almost obscured his figure.

Dente, who previously fought alongside Yaochuan Guang against Vampire, is now riding the train with them.

That's strange, didn't she go back to China?

Why are we in Wind City again?

Thinking this, Yaochuan Guang watched Dente get off the bus. After pondering and hesitating for a moment, she also got off the bus.

Could it be that there Vampire in Wind City again?

With this in mind, the responsible Yaochuan Guang felt he couldn't just ignore the Wind City of tomorrow.

However, when Dente pushed open the door to a bar, Yaochuan Guang, who was carrying ingredients, realized that he might have misunderstood.

Dente was probably just here Wind City fun.

Judging from her appearance, she's not some innocent magical girl; it's probably normal for her to frequent bars and such.

"..."but...

"..." Perhaps it was due to a keen sense of smell, or intuition, a sixth sense, or perhaps it was the instinct of the person named "Yaochuan Guang".

For some reason, she always felt...

I felt it necessary to go in and find out for myself.

Yaochuan Guang stared at the deserted bar entrance where Dente had disappeared, a sense of uncertainty creeping into his heart...

She glanced at the ingredients in her hand, then looked in the direction of the bar, feeling that inexplicable guidance deep within her heart.

Finally, she gritted her teeth, mustered her courage, and went over.

He reached out and pushed open the bar Gate.

"Jingle--"

Accompanied by the crisp sound of bells, Yaochuan Guang looked ahead... and then his eyes met Cong Yu's.

He glanced around out of the corner of his eye.

Dancing, drinking...

They're all weirdos.

--

Cong Yu: "..."

Yaochuan Guang: "..."

Wait a minute! What's going on here?!

Cong Yu, holding her triangular wine glass, was somewhat stunned, completely unexpected as to why Yaochuan Guang would be here... Had he sensed the dispelling barrier at the bar entrance?

No, that possibility is unlikely.

Moreover, more than that, more than "why," the question Cong Yu needs to consider now is... what to do?

What should he do?

Cong Yu was filled with countless thoughts...

Should I put on a mask immediately?

No matter how I think about it, it won't work... We've already been staring at each other for a while now.

So, should I pretend to be the weirdo disguised as Cong Yu?

No way! That would be too embarrassing.

Although Yaochuan Guang is a fool, he's not mentally challenged; there's no way he could possibly get away with this.

"... Confess!"

At this point, the only option is to be honest.
