The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 844 - 842: Scheming Little Monk

"No, no, compared to Brother Jiang, I’m not even worthy to carry your shoes."

Xin Lin squinted with a smile.

"Feng Xi, does the sugar lotus root suit your taste?"

Xin Lin glanced at Feng Xi.

As soon as "Heavenly Lotus" was served, everyone finished it quickly.

Except for Monk Fengxi, who ate a few small bites leisurely, it was unclear if it suited his taste.

Moreover, Xin Lin noticed that she received extremely positive feedback from almost everyone; only Monk Fengxi’s review was missing.

It seemed the monk wasn’t quite satisfied with the sugar lotus root.

Xin Lin felt somewhat disappointed, gazing eagerly at Feng Xi and his lotus root.

Jiang Qing beside her was also a bit surprised upon hearing Xin Lin call Monk Fengxi by name.

Xin addressing Monk Fengxi as Feng Xi?

In the entire Purple Cloud City, only Emperor Longteng dared to call Monk Fengxi like that.

"It’s delicious."

Feng Xi looked up and said gently.

"Just delicious?"

Xin Lin’s face drooped, her big eyes filled with disappointment.

"The lotus root and glutinous rice are very tasty, but this honey..."

Monk Fengxi glanced at the honey.

"What’s the problem with the Golden Honey?"

Xin Lin was taken aback.

"The honey could be thicker."

After Feng Xi spoke, Xin Lin blushed, coughing lightly a few times.

This Monk Fengxi, who usually appeared quite honest, in fact, had a sly side?

No one else mentioned it, even Huang Xuerou, a food enthusiast, didn’t react—how come he noticed?

The ingredients for the sugar lotus root were all very fresh, and the glutinous rice had been soaked in the Jade Pure Spring for a day, except for the Golden Honey.

Xin Lin had painstakingly gathered thirty pounds of Golden Honey from the Hornet Monster.

The quantity wasn’t much; Xin Lin needed it for several days, so she mixed it with ordinary honey in a five-to-one ratio, worried it wouldn’t be enough.

However, despite that, the Golden Honey’s taste was still excellent, and no one else could tell.

Little did she expect Monk Fengxi to recognize it right away.

"It’s a unique time right now; after these few days, once I find better honey, I’ll definitely replace it."

Xin Lin’s face was full of guilty conscience.

Yet Monk Fengxi smiled slightly, leisurely finishing the sugar lotus roots.

"Life Book Tip: Congratulations, life master, you’ve received a satisfied review from the regular customer Monk Fengxi, Heaven-defying Value +2. New regular customer added."

"Actually, I’m here today for another matter. Could Chu’s Restaurant continue to supply Taichang Temple with vegetarian buns, the same as before, a hundred a day?"

Monk Fengxi asked.

"Of course, once the birthday feast is over, Chu’s Restaurant will resume supply."

Xin Lin replied with a grin.

"Then I’ll head to the temple to bring the masters to support you."

Monk Fengxi gracefully stood up, bowed to Xin Lin, nodded at Jiang Qing, and turned to leave.

"Xin, are you very familiar with Feng Xi... the monk?"

Jiang Qing looked complexly at Xin Lin.

"We are old acquaintances; I met him back home."

In fact, Xin Lin met Monk Fengxi shortly after arriving in Longteng.

He had saved her numerous times, making him a friend through hardships?

"He’s not an ordinary monk, be cautious in your dealings."

Jiang Qing pondered before reminding Xin Lin.

Not an ordinary monk?

Xin Lin hadn’t realized—what did that mean?

She was about to inquire further, when footsteps could be heard outside Chu’s Restaurant.

"Xin Lin, I’ve brought you loads of guests, come greet them!"

Huang Xuerou called out loudly from outside.
