Chapter 17: Smelly Tofu (part 2)
Welcome back, dear reader. We are glad to have you reading with us at prosperous food dot com today.
We are preparing for this weekend special. There are 2 new novels that will be released this weekend, in addition to extra chapters of the Feast.
So enjoy the weekend novels.
At first, Shiyu was surprised to see Lu Yan. In hindsight, she should not be. After all, Lu Yan is one of the heroines. She is one of the smartest women in this world, except when it comes to matters regarding Lin Fan.
“Who are you?” Lu Yan stared into Shiyu’s eyes.
Surprisingly, Shiyu looked at the brown pupils of Lu Yan and gradually felt lethargic. Fortunately, a cool sensation came from her abdomen. The feeling of drowsiness she experienced dissipated instantly.
This is hypnosis! Lu Yan had tried to hypnotise her!
Shiyu was displeased. She thought she had not done anything to Lin Fan that harmed him. Lu Yan was too much in trying to hypnotise her!
“You really have a secret,” Lu Yan said.
Shiyu looked down coldly. "Everyone has their own secrets. Isn't Miss Lu is not the same? She has a God-like bloodline and her actions will affect the fate and destiny of the entire Lu family."
"Yet here she is, spending time with Lin Fan instead of worrying about the fate of the Lu family. I believe that in the near future, someone from the Lu family will be here and take you away. Are you so worried that worried that Lin Fan will be seduced by other women?”
Lu Yan’s eyes were a bit cold.
“Do you believe that I will kidnap you to the Lu family mansion?”
“Do your worst! At least I know that Lin Fan does not like women who are cruel and scheming. It does not matter what reasons you have for acting in the way.” Shiyu was not afraid.
This is the fault of Er Gou. In his novel, Lu Yan is a very smart woman, but when meets the male lead, Lin Fan, she becomes stupid. And there are still many other women like her.
You can say that this world is divided into two factions: All the women are inexplicably attracted by the male main character of Er Gou's novel, Lin Fan, and then fall in love with him;
The other faction is written by Fat Onion goes like this: All the men are attracted to the main character, the female lead. They could not help but fall in love with her.
Shiyu is really looking forward to the meeting between male lead from Er Gou's novel and female lead in Fat Onion's novel. Would they fall in love with each other? If this is true, then it will result in a funny show as Lin Fan had a huge harem of women, while the female lead in Fat Onion's novel had a harem of suitors.
Shiyu can imagine the chaos that this will create among the wives of the male lead and the suitors of the female lead.
Lu Yan’s scary expression eased a little bit. “I can let you off. In return, you go to Di Tou city. You cannot stay here with Lin Fan.”
Who knows what will happen when a male and female are living near each other for some time?
“You need not worry about this. There three months left before the Lin family clan tournament. I only need one month to open the shop. It’s enough to arrange everything. After I had made arrangements, I will leave.” One month seems like a long time to Shiyu. Shiyu can’t wait to get to the Di Tou City right now.
“As long as you keep your word, then I will assign some people to help to look after your family.” Lu Yan said.
Lu Yan did not have 'second meanings' for the words 'look after'. This is not a threat, but an offer.
Shiyu really did not expect this Lu Yan to be so careful. When Lin Fan comes to see her with more than a dozen wives in the future, will she explode in fury?
However, this matter has nothing to do with her.
“You came to say this?” Shiyu asked her.
“Of course.” Saying this, Lu Yan left.
Shiyu sighed thought that people could not be judged by their appearance. Accordingly to Er Gou's novel, Lu Yan is a gentle and virtuous woman, but now she seems to super protective of her man.
Actually, Shiyu misunderstood. Lu Yan is now the age when girls are more interested in a man.
She and Lin Fan love each other, but they still haven’t had sex yet and were not married. Therefore Lu Yan’s heart, Lin Fan is not hers yet. She was very prejudiced against any other women who get close to Lin Fan, and thinks they are a seductress, trying to ply Lin Fan from her.
These few days, Lin Fan frequently pays attention to Shiyu. This made Lu Yan feel a sense of crisis.
Then she came to visit Shiyu to feel her out.
In Lu Yan’s heart, Shiyu is a bad person that tried to seduce Lin Fan.
Who would like a rival that is competing against them for the affections of the one she loves?
Lu Yan could not stand it. After all, she is the eldest daughter of the distinguished Lu family clan.
As soon as Lu Yan left, Shiyu immediately closed the door and climbed to the bed. She entered the private space again. It is filled with a mist of fog.
Luckily she had read the novel and knows that this space can be used to grow crops and store items. It could also be used to escape when she is being chased by someone.
She does not know if she could cultivate. When she thought of how tough the spiritual meat is, she had a headache. Even fire could not roast it. Even if she could have more spiritual meat in future, she could not cook it. This is such a shame.
When she was thinking about, the book on top of the table suddenly open by itself. Shiyu looked and a line of words appeared.
"Common-graded fire seed, if mastered, can be used to replace spiritual attribute."
Most of the people in this world could not cultivate. Cultivation depends on if the body had any attributes. Without spiritual attributes, they are destined to be a common man.
Right now, the book informs her that there is a way to replace the spiritual attribute. If this were to be known to others, it would create havoc and chaos in the real world as people jostled for a way to cultivate.
The next day, Shiyu asked Lin Fan, "Do you know what is a fire seed?"
"Fire seed?" Lin Fan was puzzled, "I have never heard of it before."
"Fire seed? I have heard of it before." The one speaking is an elderly servant in the Lin family clan, who was sweeping the floor nearby.
"In the library, there is a record, saying that in heaven and earth give birth to thousands of things. Fire seed is one of these things. But this thing is practically worthless, except to those with a fire attribute. Even after it is mastered, it could not be used to create artefacts or refine pills. All it could be used for is to light the candle."
"….." Shiyu was stunned, "Since it is something that no one wants, it should be easy to find?"
"Although it is useless, this is a creation of heaven and earth! Do you think it is like cabbage and grows everywhere, waiting for you to pick?" The elderly cleaner rolled his eyes.
Lin Fan heard this and looked at Shiyu in surprise, "You want a fire seed?"
"Yes." Shiyu did not try to hide this. Even though the male lead had a huge harem, his character is not too bad.
"Then I will help to keep a look out for you."
"Thank you."
In the next few days, Shiyu begins to get busy as she prepared for the opening of the restaurant. Because of the agreement, the Lin family clan managed to purchase a restaurant in the grandest street of Qing Shan City. Then they invite the carpenters to renovate the place and handed it over to Shiyu.
Her goal is to make this restaurant the best restaurant in the Qing Shan City. Only when this restaurant earns a large amount of money will the Lin family honour their agreement and will take care of her family.
If it was in the past, Shiyu would be filled with confidence. But since she knows that her cooking skills were inferior to the chefs in Di Tou city, she decided not to take big risks. Who knew if there are other hidden experts in cooking within Qing Shan city? Therefore, she decided to take things one step at a time.
Notes:Horray, this chapter is back to 'normal'. Maybe the author is having a writer block in the last chapter and could not write so good or was sick. He is human too. Forgive his lapse.
