Chapter 330 Open the Door

The man worked very hard, knocking on the flimsy wooden door loudly.

He had a loud voice, like a loud speaker in his mouth, and the sound of his voice could be heard throughout the entire corridor.

Even the sound of reading on the third floor stopped, and the door was opened to listen to the noise.

After a while, three strong young men came up the stairs.

"Uncle, why are you knocking on someone else's door so late at night? Are you drunk? There's a girl in here, don't scare her."

"Come, I'll take you back."

The young men glanced at the man next to them who had his face buried in his collar.

I didn't recognize who it was for a moment.

I just kept saying in my heart: You are dressed really well, you have a crystal core.

The man was stunned. "I'm not drunk. It's not me looking for Fu Niang, it's Boss Xia looking for her. I just came over to help knock on the door! What are you thinking?!"

Is this person Boss Xia?

The three guys exhaled a large puff of white mist. "Huh? Boss Xia?"

Xia Yan showed his face and smiled: "Yes, it's me."

One of the guys blurted out: "Why are you here so late at night instead of resting in the store?"

The person next to him hastily nudged him with his elbow and said with an apologetic smile, "Please be busy. We're just worried that the girl will be wronged. We don't mean any other harm. Then, Boss Xia, we'll go downstairs and recite the text first."

Xia Yan: "Well, if you are missing textbooks or something, you can go to Xiong Xiong to register later."

"Hey, okay."

The young men smiled and nodded, pushing and shoving each other downstairs.

A rebuke could be heard faintly, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Does Boss Xia have to explain to you what he wants to do?"

"...I said it without thinking, and now I regret it... Boss Xia won't hold a grudge against me, right?"

"Teacher told you to think twice before you act. You have to hit your head against a wall and bleed to understand! It should be fine. Boss Xia doesn't care about us little guys. Didn't he just tell us to register if we need anything?"

"...That's good...I always feel a little panicked..."

The door to the third floor opened, and a small, mature female voice sounded:

"Is nothing wrong upstairs?"

The young man replied: "It's okay, it's Boss Xia who's here."

"Well, come in now. You don't even have a hat on, and your ears are all red from the cold."

"Bang—"

The door was closed gently and no more sound was heard.

The man lay on the wooden door, listening carefully to the movements inside.

"No, my voice is so loud."

At this time——

"Who's outside?"

Suddenly someone spoke from behind the door.

"Oh my god!" The man pressed against the door was frightened and took a big step back. His face turned pale. "I-I-I didn't hear any footsteps behind the door!"

Xia Yan stepped forward, "It's me, Xia Yan."

There was a noticeable pause behind the door.

Fu Niang sniffed softly, "I'll open the door right away."

I heard a crawling sound behind the door, rustling, very much like the movement of a snake.

The man swallowed his saliva and said sensibly, "Boss Xia, I'm going to go back and rest first. You guys chat!"

Xia Yan looked at him with a smile, "Thank you for tonight, I hope you will come to the store often in the future."

"Of course, of course!"

The man retreated back into the house, closed the door quietly, and the footsteps gradually faded away.

At this time, the door behind her opened and Fu Niang stepped aside to let her in.

Seeing that the floor of the room was covered with large green leaves, Xia Yan took out disposable shoe covers from the system grid and put them on.

"Just come in." Fu Niang reached out and pulled her.

"There's snow on the soles of my feet, and every time I walk, it leaves a watermark. Besides, it's not convenient to mop the floor in winter."

Fu Niang bit her lower lip lightly and lowered her still slightly red and swollen eyes.

After Xia Yan came in, she closed the door and controlled the vines to cover the entire door.

It seems that this was the sound it made just now.

The whole house of Fu Niang is surrounded by green plants, and the ground is covered with thick leaves, which feel soft when stepped on.

It’s not too cold in the house, and you can safely spend the winter wearing cotton clothes.

Moreover, small white spots of light will flash on the leaves, and you can see them clearly even without turning on the lights in the room.

"Let's go to the inner room. It's still a bit cold here."

Fu Niang looked up at her, her slightly drooping eyes making her look innocent and pitiful.

"good."

When I opened the door, I saw that it was empty all around, without a single piece of furniture, except for a particularly large flower bud blooming in the center.

Unaffected by the cold, it remains beautiful and charming.

Xia Yan recalled what the man had just said, that she lived in a flower bud.

It seems that this is the one in front of me.

The Fu Niang approached the flower bud, and a thick petal slowly fell down, revealing the flat, yellowish pistil inside.

The bed, single sofa, and even the wardrobe are all placed inside.

The space is very clean and tidy, with a faint floral scent wafting in the air.

Fu Niang hesitated for a moment, but still took off her cotton shoes. When she looked back at her, she found that Xia Yan had already changed his shoes and arranged them neatly around the flower bud. He even took off his down jacket and hung it on a small section of the protruding leaves.

She breathed a sigh of relief, "Please come in."

This was Xia Yan's first time visiting Huabao, and he was very curious.

The temperature here is very pleasant, and the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers, which is pleasant but not pungent and not too sweet.

It's a taste that's easy to accept.

After the bud closed, five or six spots of light appeared on the inner petals, which were larger than those on the outside, illuminating the room.

In addition to some necessary furniture, there are also some small baskets that should have been woven by Fu Niang herself, filled with fruits of various colors.

Fu Niang picked out a few, cut them into small pieces and placed them on a plate.

Then she brought a coffee table made of vines, placed it in front of the sofa, put a fruit plate on it, and then busied herself washing cups and pouring water.

Xia Yan relaxed his shoulders and neck, leaning back on the sofa. He ordered food from the food court while chatting with her, "Fu Niang, are you going to upgrade your supernatural power?"

Fu Niang nodded, "The room was getting colder, so I absorbed all the high-level crystal cores. Fortunately, I was on the verge of upgrading."

She picked up the thermos and poured two cups of boiling water, then walked over carefully holding them. When she saw the table full of food, her hands suddenly trembled.

The hot water instantly flowed over the edge of the cup and poured onto the back of my hand.

“Hiss—it’s so hot!”

She quickly put down the cup, found a leaf in the drawer, tore off the film and applied it to the area where the blisters were burned.

"Boss Xia, why did you buy so much food? Take it back quickly! I'm going to have a full meal tonight!"

Xia Yan met her eyes, seemingly not noticing her sharp chin, and said with a smile, "I left in a hurry and haven't eaten yet. Just think of it as accompanying me. Come quickly."

Fu Niang had no choice but to say, "I'm really not hungry. I'll chat with you."

After she sat down, Xia Yan took out a bowl of hot rice, took out a new pair of chopsticks, and placed them in front of her.

"How can I eat while you watch? Let's eat together. Don't worry about the points. I didn't spend a single cent. This is Chu Wanfu's treat. Don't be polite, eat to your heart's content!"

Fu Niang looked at the smoked chicken, lamb chops, tripe-wrapped chicken, blanched prawns and steamed sea bass on the table and swallowed silently, but she was too embarrassed to pick up her chopsticks.
