Mag and his party successfully returned to the City of Chaos. The state of emergency has been lifted. For most ordinary residents, they only stayed at home for two days. After the ban was lifted, they couldn't wait to go to the streets to find food and wind protection.
Seeing the closure announcement still hanging at the door of Maimi Restaurant, the diners who came here could only sigh and go to Maimi Hotpot to eat hot pot.
"City Lord, Boss Mai declined the request to book the venue again." Dix quickly walked into the City Lord's office and looked at Michael who was standing by the window and said.
"An expected answer." Michael smiled.
"But many representatives hope to go to Maimi's Restaurant to hold a celebration banquet. Now..." Dix was a little worried.
"This is our request. Boss Mai has the right to refuse without any conflict." Michael smiled and shook his head. "The celebration dinner will be arranged in the banquet hall of the City Lord's Palace, and the chef of Ducasse Restaurant will be invited to take charge."
"Do you want to invite Mr. Alex?" Dix asked next.
"You just need to send the invitation letter to Irina. It's up to them to decide whether to come."
"Okay." Deeks turned and left.
"It's too much to ask the most important protagonist of this celebration party to cook for everyone." Michael smiled and shook his head, thinking that there would be a smaller one at Maimi's restaurant tonight, but it would definitely be bigger. A delicious celebration feast.
…
There will indeed be a banquet at Maimi's Restaurant tonight, but it is not a celebration banquet, but a welcome banquet for the little girl Annie who has just arrived at the restaurant.
Annie and Amy were playing in the playroom on the second floor. The ladies went back to their dormitories to take a shower and change clothes.
So Mag was alone in the kitchen preparing for the evening dinner.
He was still thinking about how to talk to Irina about adopting Annie. Unexpectedly, when Irina returned to the restaurant, she found a letter from somewhere. She looked at him with a half-smile and said: "Yesterday, I opened the door at the door. I picked it up while sewing, and I read the letter."
Mag just glanced at the words on the envelope and was able to confirm that the letter was written by Gloria. His eyelids twitched wildly twice, and his smile was slightly stiff and he said: "Miss Gloria and I are just ordinary working partners. .”
"Can ordinary working partners be able to read each other's handwriting at a glance?" Irina's smile became brighter. "In other words, this is not the first letter like this."
"Uh..." Mag choked. Sometimes, having a good memory doesn't seem to be a good thing.
He was not sure what Gloria had written in this letter, but Miss Gloria was a well-educated lady. Maybe she came to him in an emergency, and he happened to be away from the restaurant yesterday, so he got this letter. .
"I have read her handwriting. You know, my memory has always been good." Mag's expression became calm. Anyway, the relationship between him and Gloria was indeed very pure.
"Well, she's a nice girl. Before she left, she didn't forget to remind you to leave the City of Chaos." Irina put the letter gently on the table.
"This makes me look bad..." Mag looked a little embarrassed. After all, when he got the news yesterday, he only thought of everyone in the restaurant at the first moment.
Irina smiled sweetly, looked Mag up and down, and asked with some confusion: "Not only has your strength recovered, but it has also gone a step further?"
"I was struck by lightning, and that's it when I came back to my senses. Now I'm almost evenly matched with the octopus monster in the seal." Mag said with a light smile.
Irina looked at Mag's smile, but the smile on her face gradually disappeared. She slowly raised her hand, gently placed it on Mag's face, and stared at him, speechless for a long time.
Mag felt the cold fingertips sliding across her cheek, but her heart felt warm.
"Next time, I won't let you show off."
"Yeah." Mag nodded slightly.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little more charming. Mag looked at Irina's beautiful face, and her cheeks seemed to have a hint of pink, which was a rare shy look.
"Michael invited us to the celebration banquet." Irina retracted her hand and said with a slightly uncomfortable expression.
"Let's not go. I have already agreed with them to have dinner in the restaurant tonight and hold a welcome dinner for Annie." Mag shook his head with a smile.
"Annie?" Irina frowned.
"I was just about to tell you about this. In the morning, I went through a thunder tribulation with the octopus monster. We almost didn't survive the last thunder tribulation. I never thought that the octopus monster was struck by lightning and a little girl was thrown out. She rescued me. .
If the octopus is the embodiment of evil, then she is the embodiment of kindness. The octopus wanted to kill her, so I took her out of the cave.
Her mind is similar to that of a newborn child, and she has a kind heart. Now she has no relatives, and she is my savior, so I want to adopt her and raise her to adulthood. I named her Annie. "Mag said looking at Irina sincerely.
It was Mag's decision to adopt Annie, but he hoped to gain Irina's understanding and acceptance.
Irina didn't speak for a long time, just staring into Mag's eyes.
Mag was a little scared when he was stared at.
"Isn't it really the child you made with another woman behind my back?" Irina's eyes were a little dangerous.
"You can verify this yourself. She is playing with Amy upstairs right now." Mag said calmly.
Irina immediately turned around and walked towards the stairs, walking briskly up to the second floor.
Mag followed behind her.
Irina stood at the door of the playroom, looking at the girl who was quietly standing aside watching Amy playing with the ugly duckling, with a bit of surprise in her eyes.
The girl looks to be twelve or thirteen years old, with a delicate face and a tall and thin figure. What is even more eye-catching is her holy temperament.
She has never seen such a clean person, just like the morning dew shining on the topmost leaves of the treetops in the morning, seemingly without the slightest smell of fireworks.
With just one glance, she was sure that Mag was not lying.
After all, eleven or twelve years ago, he was still serving in the army on the border of Los Empire.
Moreover, such a clean and pure person. It shouldn't belong to this world.
Anne heard the sound and turned towards the door, showing a polite smile.
"Mother!" Amy dropped the toys in her hands, threw herself into Irina's arms, and couldn't wait to introduce to her: "This is sister Anne. Father said she will live with us in the future. , although she can't speak now, she is really a very gentle sister, even the ugly duckling likes her."
After listening to Amy's words, Irina also had a smile on her face. She stepped forward and hugged Annie gently. She smiled and whispered in her ear: "Thank you, Annie."
Anne still looked at her with a smile.
"It seems there is no problem." Mag shrugged, turned and went downstairs to continue preparing dinner.
