On the soft cushion of the chair next to him, Leopard woke up from the smell and made a babyish whimper, as if to say, "I want to eat too."
Xin Sui would certainly not forget it.
I cut the sea cucumber in the plate into small pieces, placed them in front of it, and rubbed its head.
"Eat up, baby."
The leopard brought its head closer, rolled its tongue, and the deliciousness and softness intertwined in its mouth.
The Xuan Tu fragment residing within its body also tasted this indescribable delicacy.
At this time, Xuan Tu had been drifting on the sea on the Eyeball Sea Monster for several days without eating anything.
Upon tasting the delicious food, his long-dormant appetite quickly rebounded.
With a thought, Xuan Tu ordered his divided soul to take control of the leopard's body and taste it himself.
[Major villain's corruption value -1]
Xin Sui paused in his petting of the little leopard.
Why does Xuan Tu's corruption level decrease every time she interacts with Leopard?
She would either feed the leopard or kiss and hug it while saying sweet nothings.
There must be some reason behind this, right?
She felt like she was overlooking something, but couldn't quite put her finger on it.
The sight of Xiaoming and the leopard eating further agitated those around them.
Lou Jiali wanted to eat it, but she didn't say so directly. Instead, she raised her chin arrogantly and said, "Whether what you made is Shan Hai Dou or not, I'll only know after I've tasted it."
The implication is, "Give it to me."
Xin Suicai wasn't going to indulge her. She held out a hand and said, "Want some? 100 crystal coins each."
Lou Jiali was shocked, not by the price of the mountain and sea tofu, but by what—
"It's an honor for you that I'm willing to eat your food, and you still dare to ask me for money?"
She sneered, "What kind of delicious food haven't I eaten in my own hotel? Do you really think I care about this stuff you made?"
"But, since I haven't tried it, how do I know if what you made is actually Shan Hai Dou?"
Xin Sui: "Can't you tell if it's Shan Hai Dou or not?"
Lou Jiali: "It does look like a mountain and sea tofu, but if it only has the appearance of a mountain and sea tofu, but the taste is completely different, then it doesn't count as a mountain and sea tofu."
Xin Sui: "What if you eat it and then deliberately say it's not Shan Hai Dou in order to win the bet? Wouldn't I be at a huge disadvantage?"
Lou Jiali: "You! I'm not that despicable."
Xin Sui: "Who knows?"
She pretended not to know Xiaoming and asked, "Master Xiaoming, have you ever eaten the 'Shan Hai Dou' (a type of steamed bun) at Loujia Hotel before?"
Xiao Ming mumbled, "I've eaten it, but yours tastes better."
Xin Sui smiled at Lou Jiali: "Did you hear that? Lord Xiaoming's meaning is very clear. He admits that what I made is Shan Hai Dou, and it tastes even better than the ones in your Lou family's hotel."
"As the sole judge of this culinary competition, Lord Xiaoming has tasted all sorts of food. You wouldn't disbelieve his words, would you?"
Lou Jiali naturally wouldn't question Xiaoming, but she just felt that something was off.
Xin Sui stretched out her hand: "You lost. Here's your sentence back—you're not trying to renege on your debt, are you?"
As the daughter of the Lou family, Lou Jiali can be arrogant, willful, and spoiled, but she cannot leave behind such a lowly stigma as "reneging on debts".
That was an insult to her!
"Hmph, it's just a Crystal Source Gun! Here you go."
While throwing the items away, she didn't forget to verbally gain an advantage.
It's as if this will save face a little.
Xin Suicai wouldn't care about such verbal disputes; getting the goods in hand is what truly matters.
As the name suggests, the Crystal Source Gun's bullets are made from crystal cores and are extremely powerful.
She ran her fingers over the futuristic, semi-transparent gun and put it away with satisfaction.
Lou Jiali scoffed, "Having a gun without bullets is a waste. This gun was specially ordered by my father from the Fang family, and the bullets are also specially made; you can't buy them anywhere else."
Xin Sui: I was careless. She subconsciously treated the gun and the bullet as a whole, so she didn't explicitly mention it in the bet, which allowed Lou Jiali to take advantage of the situation.
"That is indeed a problem. So what will it take for you to give me the bullets?"
Lou Jiali: "Ha, give it to you? You really dare to dream of that. But—"
Xin Sui: "But what?"
Lou Jiali's mind raced. "Giving it to you isn't out of the question, unless you make another bet with me."
She has made so many bets and has never lost.
This is the first time.
She just wouldn't believe it; Li Xueli could beat her every time.
Today, she is determined to get something from her.
Otherwise, I won't be able to swallow this anger.
Xin Sui knew perfectly well what her purpose was in making the bet, and asked, "What are we betting on this time?"
Lou Jiali took something out of her spatial bracelet.
"This was discovered and brought out by our Lou family's adventure team from a ruin."
"If you can tell me its name and purpose, I will not only give you the box of bullets that come with it, but the whole thing will be yours too."
She placed the items she had taken out, along with a box of marbles, on the table, as if placing a bet.
"If you lose, you have to return the Crystal Source Gun to me and withdraw from the food festival competition."
"You, do you dare to bet with me?"
Xin Sui almost burst out laughing when he saw that thing.
"System, could this be the spirit-transformed calligraphy brush that Lou Jiali lost to Shui Duoduo in the novel?"
[That's right.]
"Tsk tsk, this spiritualized writing brush is comparable to the magic brush in Ma Liang's hand."
"What you draw can become real, and what you write can also become reality. That's amazing."
