As night fell and many people eagerly awaited his arrival, Lu Wu brought his steamed bun stall as promised.
The hawkers' cries dispersed the mundane atmosphere of Yanliu Street, and many serious diners came to this unconventional street.
"Good evening, Mr. Lu."
"We meet again, Mr. Lu. No new steamed buns today?"
A group of people greeted Lu Wu, their eyes fixed intently on her as she prepared.
Lu Wu responded with a smile and hung up today's signboard.
"Spicy beef and vermicelli buns, irresistible soup dumplings, wow... they really have new styles, I definitely have to eat them tonight."
The diners chatted and laughed, while the courtesans, interspersed in the queue, flirted with some of their regular customers while waiting.
"Miss Furong, would you mind paying me for tonight with two steamed buns?"
A man who considered himself dashing and debonair approached Furong with a wicked grin.
It doesn't look cool or roguish at all; instead, it's a bizarre and jarring sight.
Furong, who only seeks out high-quality clients, rolled her eyes at the other person and gently pushed their shoulder away with a finger.
"Get lost, I wouldn't even look at you."
"The only person I'd be willing to pay for is Boss Lu."
As she spoke, Furong even gave Lu Wu a flirtatious wink; her alluring and affectionate demeanor made all the men's bones go weak.
The legendary enchantress of the Hehuan Sect, who could make men submit with just a glance, truly lives up to her reputation.
Lu Wu, who has a correct sexual orientation, indicated that the signal was bad and rejected the call.
Furong's words made the man blush, and he had no choice but to give up. As a result, when he turned around, the good spot he had taken was gone.
“This is my spot!” he shouted, furious.
"Does your leaving mean you don't want this position anymore?"
"Besides, who can prove that this is your position?"
The man standing in the men's position was an old man, who arrogantly retorted.
Even if it's just moving up one place, it means being able to eat Boss Lu's steamed buns sooner.
The group of diners behind them had a glimmer of hope, so they ignored the man's plea for help.
"You, you've gone too far!"
Not only did he fail to win the heart of the beauty, he also lost his position. Who can he complain to?
The man was so angry he almost made a move, but the combined pressure of the group was enough to crush him, and he chickened out.
He should have slunk away, but he couldn't bear to part with the steamed buns, so he could only walk to the end with his head down, secretly praying that he could still get a turn today.
"The steamed buns are ready."
Lu Wu was unaware of this little incident. He called out, and the first diner in line immediately threw down two spirit stones.
"Boss, two soup dumplings, please."
That's a rare request. Most diners order two flavors. Could it be that they're regulars?
Lu Wu glanced at him and found that the other person looked completely unfamiliar.
"Is the guest confirmed?"
Lu Wu still reminded them that once sold, there were no returns or exchanges, and she wouldn't allow them to regret it later.
"Of course I'm sure."
The man nodded, very seriously.
Lu Wu didn't say anything more and packed the food for the man.
"Boss, two spicy beef and vermicelli buns, please."
The next customer made the same request, which was really strange.
She paid closer attention and noticed that the first two customers took the buns but didn't eat them right away. Instead, they walked to a corner not far away.
Lu Wu's arrival boosted business on Yanliu Street.
She became a cash cow in the eyes of those brothel owners.
To make things easier for Lu Wu, many lanterns have been hung up on Yanliu Street these past few days.
Those bright red lanterns illuminated all the darkness.
Lu Wu then saw that a transaction was taking place in that corner.
She saw one of them wearing a black hood, only revealing his eyes, looking just like the gangsters in crime movies.
This person behaves strangely, the kind who sneaks around and doesn't want to be seen by others.
Lu Wu was shocked to see the third customer also walking in that direction.
Hopefully, her customers won't be threatened by any dark or evil forces.
Just thinking about his own fighting ability, Lu Wu felt powerless.
However... Lu Wu soon realized that she had misunderstood.
The reason was that the guests left with smiles on their faces, carrying storage bags in their hands, seemingly having made quite a haul.
Strangely enough, but since it was consensual, Lu Wu regained her composure.
Today, dozens of guests at the front of the line made deals with the ruthless bandits, and many people witnessed this scene without saying a word.
None of the customers who wanted to buy out the entire steamed bun stall stopped them.
I didn't even dare to look at it for long; I was very wary.
Fortunately, this situation is not common.
Good evening, Sister Lu.
"I want red bean buns and soup dumplings."
After putting down the spirit stone, Xiao Hua smiled sweetly at Lu Wu.
Now, only a few traces of dark spots can be seen on Xiaohua's face if you look closely. Xiaohua, who has regained her original appearance, has a sweet face and looks like a porcelain doll.
Her face radiated confidence, and her eyes sparkled.
"Okay."
Seeing the changes in Xiaohua, Lu Wu was also happy for her.
"Sister Lu, the Awakening Day is in eight days. Can you come to see me then?"
Xiao Hua made way for the guests behind her, walked over to Lu Wu, and gently asked her while holding the hem of her dress.
Perhaps out of shyness, her little face was flushed. The twelve-year-old girl looked at Lu Wu with her big, watery eyes, which melted Lu Wu's heart.
"It depends. If I don't have to set up a stall then, I'll come see you."
She didn't know how the system would assign tasks.
Although she was also very curious about the Awakening Day of the Qingyuan Realm, which lasted for three days and saw many sects come to recruit disciples, making it a grand event held once a year.
"Oh well."
Xiaohua was a little disappointed, but being sensible, she didn't insist.
In no time, Lu Wu had sold ten baskets of steamed buns, and the queue was still as long as ever.
Shaking his arms, Lu Wu continued working.
"Boss, I'd like one beef and vermicelli soup and one red bean paste soup."
A gentle voice rang out, and the moment Lu Wu looked up, it was as if she had seen a fairy.
The other person looked to be in their early twenties, wearing a bright red, wide-sleeved, flowing dress that accentuated their exquisite figure.
Her exquisite features were as beautiful as flowers, and every glance and smile was unforgettable.
Lu Wu's heart pounded as she was struck by his beauty.
"Mr. Lu, this is my mother."
As a result, Lou Xiaotian stuck his head out from behind and said this.
?
Lu Wu was filled with questions.
Such a beautiful fairy sister is already taken, and yet she still gave birth to this unreliable son, Lou Xiaotian.
"puff……"
The fairy who understood Lu Wu's expression chuckled and said softly with gentle eyes.
"I'm sorry to trouble you to take care of my good-for-nothing son, Mr. Lu."
Lu Wu felt a surge of joy at being thanked by the beautiful woman, even though she didn't know how to take care of Lou Xiaotian anymore.
"Little girl, I want two soup dumplings."
Another burly man chimed in.
The other person's hand was around the fairy's waist, and their relationship was obvious at a glance.
Therefore, these two are Lou Xiaotian's parents.
"OK."
Lu Wu responded, secretly glancing at Lou Batian out of the corner of her eye.
