Night, quiet.
—23:59—
—00:00—
Time is up.
It's not a special time.
In the dean's room, a light door rose. Andy took out the key and opened the door.
"Okay, let's go."
Andy took Baili Yuan and Nicole into the light door.
This door leads to a restaurant in the gap between time and space. This restaurant can soothe the traveler's heart through delicious food.
Stepping through the light door, the three of them arrived at a quaint little restaurant.
Bailiyuan has only been to this restaurant once, but he still has fresh memories of the restaurant.
However, compared to the last time, the restaurant has become bigger and there are more waiters, but Zhao Xing was not seen. I guess he must be busy in the kitchen.
In addition to these, there is an additional bar in the restaurant, and behind the bar is a shelf holding various bottles and cans.
Between the bar and the shelves, the restaurant waiter Rei was busy.
"That's a newly opened water bar. Some guests can taste wine or drinks there. Lian is in charge. The drinks and wine she prepares taste quite good." Andy explained to Bailiyuan.
Bailiyuan nodded. The last time he came, Lian was an ordinary waiter, but now he can make delicious drinks and wine.
But Nicole ran to the water bar with ease and climbed onto the high chair.
Hey~
"Have a glass of Tianhe bubble water~" Nicole said, patting the table very skillfully, looking like a big brother who often hangs out here.
"It's Nicole." Lian smiled when she saw Nicole. She was also familiar with Nicole. "If you are here, that means..."
Lian looked towards the door and happened to see Andy. She nodded politely to Andy. Then Lian saw Baili Yuan and opened her mouth in surprise.
Although Bailiyuan was not dressed so formally this time, she still recognized Bailiyuan.
Bailiyuan was still fresh in her mind.
After all, Bailiyuan was the one who defeated boss Zhao Xing, and he was also the only one who defeated Zhao Xing in cooking.
Occasionally, chefs would pass by this restaurant, and the chefs were also very interested in this special restaurant. Naturally, a competition was unavoidable, and Zhao Xing also used his cooking skills to defend his status as a restaurant owner.
In private, Zhao Xing also said that if it hadn't been for the competition with Baili Yuan, it would have taken more time for his cooking skills to grow, and he might not have been able to defeat those challengers.
Zhao Xing also wanted to compete with Bailiyuan, but Bailiyuan never came to the restaurant again.
Unexpectedly, Andy came with him this time.
Because there were still guests waiting, Lian did not come out to say hello, but he bowed respectfully to Baili Yuan.
When Andy saw this scene, he naturally noticed the difference in Lian's attitude. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and glanced sideways at Baili Yuan.
"I didn't expect you to come here just once and you would be more honorable than me."
"?"
Andy didn't say anything more, but asked Nicole to drink sparkling water slowly at the water bar.
A female elf waiter came up to ask Andy what he wanted, and Andy said he wanted a private room with the same specifications as last time.
Baili Yuan was unclear, but Andy was a regular customer of the restaurant, so the waiter naturally understood what Andy meant.
Then, Andy led Baili Yuan to the side where a passage opened on one side of the restaurant. There were many private rooms in the passage, and the hollow windows were covered with embroidered white curtains, which gave them an antique feel.
"These private rooms are also a newly opened service, but not all guests can enter the private rooms. They need to spend a certain amount to have their own exclusive private room." Andy explained while taking Bailiyuan to a private room. .
"How much does it cost?" Bailiyuan asked curiously. He knew that the cost of this restaurant was not cheap.
"a lot of."
"Then you are really rich."
"Um...hehe~" Andy did not respond directly.
Bailiyuan blinked, feeling something was wrong.
Caroline explained, "As someone who has been a dean, Andy's account is connected to the account of Yuncheng College. This is a benefit that previous deans can enjoy."
Wait, is it connected to the Yuncheng College account?
Isn't this embezzlement of public funds?
"Okay, let's go in quickly." Andy changed the subject.
Baili Yuan also raised his head and saw the name of the private room - [Modern Restaurant].
"What kind of name is this private room?" Bailiyuan complained.
"You'll find out when you get in." Andy smiled mysteriously.
Andy opened the curtain and led Bailiyuan into the private room.
Stepping through the curtain, Baili Yuan's eyes flashed. When he looked around clearly, he found that he had stepped into a magnificent and brightly lit restaurant.
Behind them are modern doors instead of antique curtains.
The building is in the shape of a semicircle, and the curved walls are entirely composed of windows.
Standing at Bailiyuan, you can have a panoramic view of the entire hall and the scenery outside the window.
There are various noble furniture placed on the floor of the hall, which does not appear chaotic at all, but makes people feel that nobility and art are combined with each other.
It is already dark outside, and you can see the shadows of tall buildings outside the window, dotted with lights of various colors.
Standing at Bailiyuan, it feels like you are looking down at the outside, which reflects the fact that the location of this restaurant is absolutely high.
Andy walked toward the center of the hall.
"This is where I will take you..."
Andy clapped his hands.
The lights in the hall gradually dimmed, and finally the entire hall fell into darkness. Only the lights outside the window and the slightest light from the lights allowed Bailiyuan to still see the shadows of Andy and various furniture in the hall.
"Bailiyuan." Andy suddenly called out Bailiyuan's name in a serious tone.
"I'm here." Bailiyuan couldn't help but become serious and stood up straighter.
He didn't think wrong this time, because before he came, Andy had already said what he was going to do here.
Andy spoke slowly, and this time her voice seemed to have strange power, resonating with something.
Bailiyuan's eyes shone with golden light, allowing him to see clearly that Andy was surrounded by the power of the contract, and her words triggered a special and powerful contract.
"After my review, combined with your actions, your character and abilities have been recognized by me. Therefore, I formally invite you to join the [Guardians] to protect our world and the continuation of civilization. Are you willing? ?”
"I do." Bailiyuan accepted seriously.
"Inviter, Andy, joiner..." Andy's voice paused.
"Bailiyuan!" Bailiyuan said his name.
A faint light lit up Andy's chest, and she said: "From today on, I will protect the light. When darkness falls, I can also transform into light!"
"From today on, I will protect the light. When darkness falls, I can also transform into light!" Bailiyuan repeated Andy's words, and at the same time, his chest also lit up with a faint light, weak, but firm.
The contract is established!
The contract on Andy continued to extend, split into two, and wrapped around Baili Yuan.
At the same time, several figures continued to appear in the dark hall, and the same thing was that they all had that faint light on their chests.
They are all [Guardians]!
