The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 821 - 819: Combat Lobster

Xin Lin gave a wry smile.

Jiang Qing’s warning came too late.

In fact, Yang Su had already targeted Chu’s Restaurant.

Although Xin Lin didn’t know why Yang Su would set his sights on such an unknown little Spirit Food Restaurant like Chu’s, there are indeed many famous Spirit Food Restaurants in Purple Cloud City.

To say the least, even De Yue Building is much more famous than Chu’s Restaurant.

Yang Su’s reason for targeting Xin Lin was, quite coincidentally, by chance.

With Yang Su’s character, he initially looked down on little spirit chefs like Xin Lin. Before coming to Purple Cloud City, he only had two targets.

One was Master Ji from Taoyao Pavilion, and the other was Master Chen from De Yue Building.

Unfortunately, Master Ji died suddenly.

And Master Chen, because of prior reorganizational matters, was also apprehensive, cautious in speech and action.

So Yang Su changed his mind and, after planning to take over Taoyao Pavilion, set his sights on the Emperor Longteng’s birthday banquet. He hoped to use the occasion to establish his foothold in Longteng and seize control of the Spirit Food World.

Who would have thought, the head chef position he eyed was snatched away by Xin Lin, who appeared out of nowhere.

If Xin Lin had used some superb spiritual delicacy to take the position, he might have let it go, but Xin Lin used small buns to secure it. How could Yang Su not be annoyed?

Since Xin Lin was good at making buns, Yang Su decided to create Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns, directly snatching away all of Xin Lin’s bun business.

The intricacies of this affair, Xin Lin only learned later.

"Thank you for the advice, Brother Jiang. I will be careful and keep an eye on Yang Su. However, there is one more thing. Lately, Taoyao Pavilion has been giving away Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns. Brother Jiang, remember, you and your men must not eat those buns." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Xin Lin intended to warn Jiang Qing that there was something fishy about the Spiritual Longevity Peach Buns.

But before figuring out the problem with Aphron, she couldn’t casually accuse the other side and could only offer a kind reminder.

"Don’t worry. Apart from the buns you make, I won’t eat anyone else’s."

Jiang Qing simply laughed.

Xin Lin was surprised when she heard this, sensing there was more to Jiang Qing’s words than met the eye.

She glanced at Jiang Qing, only to see his handsome face wearing a gentle, harmless smile. His black eyes, however, were fixed on Xin Lin, flickering with a hesitant gaze as if wanting to say something but not speaking.

"Hey hey, Xiao Xin, the lobsters in the pond are something else. I spent ages catching just one."

Master Mo’s loud voice from outside broke their brief silence.

"I almost forgot. I promised Master Mo to make lobster tonight. Brother Jiang, since you’re here, why not stay and join us..."

Xin Lin was about to invite Jiang Qing to dinner.

Suddenly, a cold snort sounded in her ear.

Join for dinner?

Uh, uh, uh—

Xin Lin came to her senses, realizing she had forgotten about the very, very displeased Pride Corpse next to her, who didn’t take kindly to Jiang Qing.

Fortunately, Jiang Qing had other matters to attend to, so he thanked Xin Lin for the invitation and left.

Xin Lin sighed, thinking to herself that Pride Corpse was really overly petty. It’s just an extra set of cutlery; was it really necessary to be so stingy?

As she walked out of the Medical Hall, she realized that, unbeknownst to her, the golden light spread everywhere.

The sunset’s afterglow gilded the pond’s water with a dazzling golden hue.

A vast expanse of lush green lotus leaves swayed back and forth in the evening breeze.

The pond’s water, once clear, was now stirred into a murky chaos, echoing with splashes.

Chu Beiqing, Master Mo, and the temporary unpaid worker Lu Yuan collaborated, trying to catch Combat Lobsters in the pond.
