"Damn it, so many people bought this thing?!"
In a restaurant by the window, Hongli slumped in her seat, looking at two bags of bitter melon-flavored biscuits on the table, rubbing her brows to confirm that she had bought them correctly, and stuffed them into her storage bag.
Originally, she thought that for weird snacks like this, she should look for them in remote shops, or browse in the corners of large stores with a wide range of varieties.
I searched around but couldn't find it. When I came back and walked to the best-selling products shelf, I suddenly found that the bitter melon-flavored biscuits were neatly arranged there.
"Am I not keeping up with the times?"
Hongli sighed: "It turns out that I am already old..."
"Mom, stop complaining now."
Xiao Huo jumped up and down on the menu: "Order, order!"
"Ah, just watch it."
Hong Li waved her hand: "No wine, no animal offal, no greasy food, whatever you want with the rest..."
"Ah, good."
Xiaohuo lowered his head and continued to look through the menu, thinking hard.
"I have been busy all morning, and finally I bought all the things for my aunt and Xingyun."
Hongli sighed: "I didn't buy anything myself!"
"Then go buy it this afternoon."
Xiaohuo responded casually: "This is the first time I've seen so many people."
"Wow, one morning isn't enough? I need another afternoon!"
Hong Li's eyes widened: "Just kill me, mom, if you can tire me to death!"
"What should we do?"
Xiaohuo still didn't raise his head, but concentrated on studying the menu: "Mom, aren't you going to buy those things?"
"Ah...it doesn't matter..."
Hong Li looked lazily: "Things like that aren't very important anyway.
Just like those tableware and the like, if I bought them, I would probably just put them at home to gather dust. After all, I am too lazy to cook by myself.
There are also flying pigeons in the snow mountains, this and that, it sounds very troublesome, why did I write about that stuff at the time..."
In addition to eating, she initially wanted to go to the bookstore to see if there were any new novels that she had not read yet, but when she thought that there were comics waiting for her, she instantly lost interest.
At least wait until she finishes reading those comics before finding new novels to read.
Although the illusion trial was very difficult, Hongli felt that she could break it by doing it a few more times!
The key point is that the illusion is so false that it can only be seen but not touched...
Ahem, in short, the comics are already in her possession. It is a beautiful thing to regain more lost ones!
To put it bluntly, she just didn't want to move anymore. It was a lie that she felt energetic in the morning. After taking two steps, she was instantly back to reality.
We might as well rest in this restaurant until night, just like before, with Hei...
Hong Li suddenly reacted. Looking at the empty seats in front of her, she felt a little empty in her heart...
[Hongli: Black Yang? 】
[Heiyang: Uh-huh, what's wrong? 】
Damn, what’s wrong? I miss you so much. Is it okay to say this? !
Hongli curled her lips, a little depressed.
[Hongli: What are you doing? 】
[Hei Yang: Let’s eat. What else can I do for dinner? 】
[Heiyang: [Picture] Want a bite? 】
[Hongli: Come on, I’ll chew your head raw in the rice! 】
Looking at the picture, there are a bunch of smiling Hei family members surrounding Heiyang's dining table, and there are several dolls chasing and playing behind them. Even if she can't hear the sound, Hongli can feel the excitement there.
On the other hand, although it was equally noisy on her side, she felt isolated from the world. The feeling of being unaccompanied was a bit suffocating.
She is not the kind of person who likes liveliness, but now she feels a deep sense of loneliness. Subconsciously, she wants to cry...
I don’t know why, I’m just unhappy…
[Hongli: Can you turn on the video over there? 】
[Hei Yang: Wait for me five seconds and I will eat these two mouthfuls of rice! 】
[Your contract partner (Hei Yang) sent a video invitation, do you want to accept it...]
"accept!"
"Can you see it? Can you see it?"
Hei Yang ran out of the house at some point, jumped to the top of an attic, and sat on the edge of the building, with the blue sky behind him: "Hongli? Hongli? Please answer when you receive it!"
"Ah, I saw it."
Hongli lay on the table and stared at Hei Yang's face. She subconsciously wanted to smile, but she felt something was wrong and pulled the corner of her mouth down: "You are still in the capital, and you have no plans to go back?"
"It's coming soon, about a week at the latest."
Hei Yang looked into the distance and shook his head: "I will leave in a week at the latest. This city is very good, but I am not used to it."
"Hey, hypocritical."
Hong Li rolled her eyes: "You said something about scheming before, what's going on?"
"Ah, it's a small matter, there's nothing to say."
Hei Yang waved his hand casually: "Don't worry about it."
"real or fake?"
"When have I ever lied to you?"
"Aren't you lying to people now?"
"This time it's true!"
"Oh, then I believe it... Oh, wait, my food is here."
Hong Li saw that Xiao Huo had not only finished ordering the food, but the shopkeeper had also brought it to her respectfully. She moved her neck and moved her head away from the table.
Different from the Five Elements Sect where spiritual stones are required for meals, in the taverns opened by mortals outside, all payment is made with worldly goods.
She is a poor person in the sect, but outside she is still the young lady from the Hong family. Anyway, she doesn't have to worry about eating.
He moved his chopsticks, but didn't do much to pick up the food. He looked at Xiao Huo on the side and tried to hold the chopsticks with his claws and wings, but finally gave up and started to eat.
If it were a person like this, he would definitely be laughed at, but Xiao Huo's appearance attracted the attention of people around him from time to time, with smiles in their eyes, probably because they were attracted by the cuteness.
In fact, living in Five Elements City, the residents here often see Five Elements Sect disciples and various spiritual beasts, but this is the first time for them to see a little crane like Xiaohuo who has just been born.
Hong Li thought about it casually and knew what those people were thinking. She also thought that this kind of little fire that could be grabbed was quite cute, but children would eventually grow up. I am afraid that after a while, Xiao Huo would grow bigger than her. .
Thinking that she wouldn't be able to rub Xiaohuo like this until then, Hongli suddenly felt a little lost again.
She doesn't know what's going on lately, she's always worried about gains and losses, and feels like she's not the same as herself.
"Hello, Xiaoli?"
Hei Yang's confused voice came: "Why do you look a little unhappy? What's wrong? Did you lose the fight?"
"Oh, I'm so happy."
Hong Li said harshly: "Look at me, look how happy I am smiling, hahaha, I'm so happy!"
Hei Yang: "..."
"Okay, okay, it's a little depressing."
Hong Li muttered in a low voice: "I don't know what's going on, maybe I'm just acclimatized."
"I guess it's possible."
Hei Yang frowned and thought: "Look, you can't even pick up the energy by scolding me. The situation is a bit serious!"
"Are you really sick? You like to be scolded?!"
Hongli couldn't help but cursed in a low voice: "If I hadn't been outside right now, I would have scolded you and made you cry for mother!"
"Yes, yes, you are right."
"Don't blame me!"
"Oh well."
There was something in Hei Yang's mind, and he narrowed his eyes slightly: "By the way, let me tell you something."
"What's the matter?"
Hongli tilted her head curiously: "Let me guess, what gift do you want to give me for your birthday this year?
Please, my good brother, your birthday is nearly a month away, and you have to ask now? "
"Ah...what you said..."
Hei Yang was stunned for a moment: "It's indeed a matter of course, so what are you going to give me?"
"Can I slap you twice?"
Hongli said angrily: "So since you are not asking about birthdays, what do you want to say?
Don't ask me what gift I like. I won't tell you that my birthday wish is to see your... diary! "
"What a deliberate statement."
Hei Yang snorted softly: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I just plan to go visit you in a few days. Please remember to pack up and welcome me!"
"boom!"
"Chirp!"
Xiaoli Huohe was eating vigorously when there was a loud noise next to her. She turned her head subconsciously and found that her mother had fallen to the ground for some reason.
"I'm stupid, I'm stupid, what the hell are you talking about!"
Typhoon and tsunami with red eyes: "How could you come here now..."
No, I mean, how do you conduct a surprise attack...
No, I mean...I mean..."
