Chapter 029 He usually doesn't say bad things about people behind their backs unless he can't help it.
"No, am I the only one who can't bear to eat it and keeps admiring it over and over again? Laughing and crying.jpg"
"Because Blue is so delicious."
"I was planning on keeping it as a souvenir, but I couldn't help myself. Damn it."
oh.
...It's food.
He Xile felt relieved and asked curiously, "What did you eat?"
"It's Blue Blue brand pastry! It smells so good!"
"Huh? Lanlan doesn't know? Does that person really have authorization?"
"Yes, right? He was the one who sold the blue doll before, and he even showed the official license back then. And this time he said it was a promotion, just the cost price. It's really cheap, doesn't seem like someone who's trying to make money shady."
"Come to think of it, that blue doll was also sold at a very low price last time."
"That's quite conscientious."
He Xile blinked, realizing it must have been Maggie's doing. He casually scrolled through the comments and saw that before the large-scale "Eat Blue in One Bite" sale, someone had posted an address, urging everyone to hurry over and line up.
He Xile was very interested and finally got up from the beach and went to the stall.
As soon as he arrived, he found a long queue in front of the stall again.
It's almost the same as the last time I sold the dolls.
Someone in the queue saw He Xile and looked surprised: "Lan Lan is here?"
"Ha, it's really small."
"I'm already very short, but I didn't expect him to only reach my belly."
"It looks so cute, doesn't it?"
He Xile is still a little uncomfortable with the feeling of being the center of attention.
His face flushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed. At the same time, he noticed that the girl who had been praising him had a long tail with fur that looked particularly silky.
Apparently, this female regularly maintains the fur on her tail.
He Xile said seriously, "Your tail is also very cute. It looks furry and the hair is very smooth and beautiful."
"Ahhh, Lanlan praised my tail for being cute—"
The girl's tail immediately began to wag excitedly.
She couldn't help but hold her boyfriend's hand tightly.
My boyfriend smiled and said, "Yes, I said that to you before. Your tail is just very beautiful."
The girl blushed.
Like most residents of Haixinna, the girl also had many complaints about her secondary features. For example, she often felt uncomfortable where her body connected to her tail. She couldn't sleep flat for long periods of time, or her tailbone would feel uncomfortable. Her long hair often got tangled. Her hair fell all over the house. Her tail always exposed her true feelings in inappropriate situations.
But she did put a lot of effort into the second feature.
Her boyfriend knows all this and often helps her build confidence by telling her that her tail looks nice. However, it’s really great to have someone notice and compliment her tail when they meet her for the first time.
The girl suddenly felt that all her previous efforts were not in vain.
Not to mention, the person who said these words was the human being she always cared about and loved very much!
Woo woo woo.
Humans are obviously the cutest, but they still praise her like this. I’m so touched!
The girl looked at He Xile's leaving back, turned around, and smiled brightly: "I really didn't like the wrong person."
Boyfriend: "Yes, yes, yes. Little blue doll, I will definitely line up next time."
The girl burst out laughing.
She held her boyfriend's hand tighter, thinking that her statement of "I didn't fall in love with the wrong person" actually included her boyfriend.

He Xile walked around the crowd and came to the back of the stall.
As he got closer, He Xile saw at a glance that there was an elderly man standing in front of the stall.
The old man, neatly dressed, opened a basket of steamed cakes and said to the people in line with a smile, "Don't worry, they still need to be put into the cooling device. They will be ready soon."
Margery stood beside the old man and helped him.
The two have obviously been working together for some time and have a good understanding of each other.
The Star Network is different from reality; it's made up of code, after all. Therefore, many cooking steps are faster and more convenient than in reality. Soon, the pastry finished cooling in the machine, and when it was taken out, it exuded a chill.
The cakes have started to be distributed.
Steaming these pastries doesn't guarantee perfection every time. The ones that come out of the oven still look like a cute version of He Xile, about the size of He Xile's palm, but more adorable than the previous little dolls—because they've gained weight.
A serving of pastry only costs two star coins, but the cost of renting the stall is quite high, so it is indeed the cost price.
He Xile saw that everyone who received the pastries had happy smiles on their faces.
"I'm in line, look! Isn't it cute?"
"Damn it, my Lanlan doesn't look as fat as yours! I want a fatter one!"
He realized something and a small dimple appeared on his face.
He hadn't trusted Margery wrongly.
The latter does this not for the sake of making money.
"Ah, it's Lanlan who's here——"
Ma Jieli heard the voice and turned around to see He Xile standing behind him. He was stunned for a moment and said enthusiastically, "Sir, are you here? I didn't see you before. Come here quickly."
He Xile shook his head: "I didn't tell you in advance."
I haven't seen Margery for just a few days, and he's gotten several shades darker.
He took a cake on a skewer from the old man and asked the people in line, "I'm sorry, but I'd like to give one cake from this basket to Mr. He Xile. Do you mind?"
Of course, the people in the queue didn't mind and said, "No problem."
"Give it to him."
Ma Jieli handed the cake to He Xile first and asked, "Want to try it?"
He Xile said, "Thank you."
Margery pulled over another bench.
He Xile sat on it and ate the cakes obediently.
The pastry was small for Hai Xinna, but a bit big for He Xile.
He absolutely cannot call someone "Lan Lan" all the time.
In the end, He Xile had to admit that the head was the easiest place to bite.
Take a bite.
The pastry is not particularly sweet. It is glutinous at first, then soft with a slightly crunchy texture. It is icy and cool. When you put it in your mouth, you feel that all the heat in your body has dissipated.
Especially suitable for summer.
He Xile suddenly thought of an air-conditioned room in summer, holding a bowl of mung bean soup with rock sugar that had been chilled in the refrigerator.
"It's delicious." He Xile's eyes lit up.
Margery laughed: "As long as you like it."
The old man couldn't help but laugh: "It's my honor."
There were a lot of people queuing up, so Maggie didn't have time to chat with He Xile, and the two continued to be busy.
He Xile doesn't need anyone to accompany him.
He swung his legs slightly and slowly finished the whole pastry. Then he sat back in his seat, watching the people queuing up and basking in the sun. Soon, he saw someone calling him on the barrage.
He Xile: "Hmm?"
He clicked on the link and discovered that someone had taken a photo of him eating ice cream and posted it online. Within a short period of time, the post had already attracted a significant number of clicks and comments.
"Blue eat blue!"
"No nesting dolls allowed! But they're really cute, hahahaha."
He Xile looked at the photo and asked curiously, "Isn't it because of copyright issues that you can't take photos of me without permission?"
Maggie secretly sold videos and photos of He Xile and was fined after being caught.
"It's true that filming isn't allowed, but this is a gray area. Before, you belonged to His Majesty and the museum. The museum had exhibitions, so they were very strict about this, and no one dared to film. Now you belong to His Majesty and yourself. As long as you and His Majesty don't pursue responsibility, no one will come to arrest us. His Majesty, he certainly won't bother us over such a small matter."
"Don't blame me, Lanlan—"
He Xile understood.
He laughed and said, "Of course not."
"Hehehe, but I'd better go delete this post."
He Xi Le is willing to do anything.
His eyes lingered on the comment, staring at "You now belong to His Majesty and yourself" again and again.
...I always feel that this sentence is weird.
But if you think about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with it.
Wen Ji and His Majesty had emphasized before that he had spent a full 30 billion to buy He Xile on the black market.
Thirty billion.
He Xile counted on his fingers, but couldn't figure out how many years he would need to work to pay off the debt.
Forget it.
Just as he was thinking, He Xile looked up and saw a familiar face among the people in the queue in front of him. He was startled and couldn't help but stand up, wanting to take a closer look.
The man had already lined up and walked to the side with He Xile's pastries.
The figure is vague.
He Xile only saw a series of black bone spurs protruding from one of the man's arms.
Hmm?
...Maybe I saw it wrong?
But this second feature is a bit too similar?
At night, I logged off the Star Network.
On the way to the restaurant, He Xile finally met Wen Ji and His Majesty who had returned from vacation.
He greeted him as usual, but his eyes did not linger on His Majesty. Instead, he could not help but look at the guards around His Majesty frequently - one of the guards also had a series of black bone spurs on his arm.
Very conspicuous.
The guard noticed that He Xile was looking at him, and his eyes moved slightly, as if to look down at He Xile, but then he quickly looked straight ahead, as if he was afraid of hearing Ji and being blamed.
The next second, He Xile heard the emperor's voice beside him: "The Wave Festival is almost over. Did you have fun?"
This question... seems familiar?
He Xile replied: "Happy."
He wanted to say more, but recalling their last chat, when His Majesty seemed uninterested in his endless chatter, he offered only these two words of comment, adding with genuine emotion, "The Splash Festival is the happiest festival I've ever had. Many events fully demonstrate the solidarity and friendship of Hexinna, which has given me a deeper understanding of Hexinna and made me love this place even more."
That's how we should be.
You need to have a higher emotional intelligence.
Don't keep talking about topics that others don't like. Just give a brief and concise comment.
He Xile was very satisfied with his performance.
His Majesty suddenly stopped and began to stare at He Xile.
He Xile: “?”
His Majesty drawled, "How are you happy? Tell me more specifically."
He Xile: “…”
He Xile looked suspicious.
What's going on?
But His Majesty wanted to hear it this time, and He Xile, remembering the thirty billion star coins His Majesty had spent on him, organized his words and described a few interesting things in detail, concluding with the penmanship of an elementary school student: "I really like the Wave Festival."
Look up.
Wen Ji and Your Majesty both had cold expressions.
He said "Oh", walked past He Xile, and walked forward with big strides.
He Xile: “???”
Why do you look unhappy again?
He Xile looked at His Majesty's back for a long time, and finally thought to himself, this man is really hard to serve.
He usually doesn't deliberately say bad things about people behind their backs.
