Xin Sui: "I think it's a waste of your talents to only run a barbecue stall. I'm planning to open a restaurant. Would you like to come and be my head chef?"

Shui Qingqing's eyes widened. "A chef?"

"Yes, I will teach you all the dishes I know how to cook. Once you've learned them, you'll be in charge of the entire kitchen."

"So, are you interested?"

Shui Qingqing hesitated, "Sister Lily, can I?"

Xin Sui pinched her cheek: "Why can't you do it? Have more confidence in yourself."

"Your culinary talent is even better than mine. With my guidance as a master chef, your cooking skills will surely improve by leaps and bounds."

"More than capable of managing the kitchen of a restaurant."

Her words were like a shot of adrenaline for Shui Qingqing.

Shui Qingqing's eyes lit up, and she nodded emphatically.

“If Sister Lily is willing to teach me, then of course I’ll go.”

Xin Sui smiled and said, "Aren't you going to ask about the payment? Aren't you afraid I'll exploit you?"

Shui Qingqing: "Besides teaching me how to cook, does Sister Lily also want to give me money?"

Xin Sui: "Of course, I can't just use you as a freeloader."

She then discussed the specific details of opening the shop with Shui Qingqing.

As Shui Qingqing listened to the scene she described, her original idea of ​​just setting up a barbecue stall suddenly swelled into a much bigger ambition.

Like a seed buried underground for a long time, it finally gathers enough strength, breaks through the soil, and grows rapidly.

Xin Sui did not stay at the siblings' house for long.

He said goodbye and left before the leopard woke up.

Before leaving, he temporarily entrusted Jenny to Shui Qingqing.

The afro and the wall-walker have already spotted Jenny; keeping her around could easily lead to trouble.

It would be better to leave it with Shui Qingqing for a while.

With Shui Duoduo, the male lead, protecting her, I believe Jenny will be fine.

"Qingqing, could you take care of Jenny for me for a while?"

"At most one month. Once I've finished dealing with what I'm doing, I'll take her away."

Shui Qingqing readily agreed.

Jenny held Xin Sui's hand, looking at her with reluctance, her crystal-like eyes bright yet sorrowful.

"Sister, although I don't want to be separated from you, you must have left me here for my own good. I can't be willful and insist that you take me away."

"Don't worry, I'll stay here obediently and wait for you to pick me up. I'll also listen to Sister Qingqing and not cause her any trouble."

[Tsk, this little mermaid has probably mastered the art of tea ceremony to level 10.]

Listen to those words! How sensible, how endearing, how considerate of you.

Xin Sui ignored the system, cupped Jenny's face, and kissed her forehead.

"I'll come pick you up after I've taken care of Leopard's matter."

Jenny hugged her neck and pressed herself against her.

It took a while before she let go, stepped back a distance, and waved her petal-like little hand at her.

A determined smile appeared on her face: "Sister, I'll wait for you."

As she turned around, Xin Sui glanced again at Shui Duoduo, who was leaning against the door frame, her meaning quite clear.

Shui Duoduo shrugged innocently.

Xin Sui heard Leopard's barking coming from the villa near her neck, and she knew that Leopard had woken up and was looking for her.

She didn't linger any longer and turned to leave.

Before they even left Orange Avenue, a hole suddenly appeared under their feet.

Xin Sui fell down unexpectedly.

It fell into a container.

Before she could get up, she heard a "snap" and something sealed her head shut.

She immediately realized that she was being moved rapidly.

The container was completely dark. Xin Sui took out a crystal lamp—a lamp powered by crystal cores—and shone it around.

The container was like a transparent glass jar, about half a person's height, so it wasn't too cramped for her inside.

At this moment, the glass jar is being carried on someone's back, moving quickly underground.

Why is it described as "traversing"?

Because this person wasn't using an existing underground passage, but instead was moving directly through the mud and bricks!

Xin Sui immediately thought of the wall-penetrating ability user who had sneaked into her room before.

"System, is this person the same one who walked through the wall before?"

[Yes. ]

Xin Sui immediately abandoned his plan to use the Dragon Fang Dagger to break open the glass jar and escape.

Once she gets out of the glass jar, she'll probably be embedded in the soil.

Using a teleportation spell isn't very safe either.

Let's wait and see where this person takes her, and then figure out a way to escape.

Xin Sui didn't turn off the light, still watching the scenery flashing past outside the glass jar.

This was my first time experiencing being carried underground like this.

Along the way, she saw tree roots, insects, stones, and all sorts of other things.

It feels quite novel.

After walking for about an hour, Xin Sui was led into a section of the mine tunnel.

The stone walls of the mine tunnel emitted specks of blue light, like stars.

It's probably emanating from the remaining ore.

After a while, the person carrying her stopped.

At this moment, she found herself in a spacious mine shaft.

It's clear that this mine has been altered by human intervention.

The stone walls were very smooth, and a huge crystal lamp hung from the top, illuminating the entire mine.

Xin Sui was released.

The face of the wall-walker was finally revealed.

It was a pale, stiff face, like a mask, with features that looked painted on, lifeless.

His hands, hanging limply at his sides, had nails that were as long as a zombie's, and an eerie purplish-black color.

If you didn't know better, you'd think he'd just crawled out of a coffin.
