[Genshin Impact]: I can become stronger by cooking.

"if not."

Chao Ke replied calmly.

Silver fell silent for a moment, and his agreement with his boss's idea of ​​keeping Miss Navia away from Chao Ke grew even stronger.

After a moment of awkwardness, out of professional necessity, Silver took a deep breath, regained his composure, and continued to ask.

"What about the number of people to hire? What are Mr. Chao Ke's plans?"

"The more who meet the recruitment requirements, the better."

Silver: "......"

"Ok, I see."

After speaking with Silver, Chao Ke stayed at the Rose of Thorns Club for lunch.

Objectively speaking, the food prepared by the Rose Society's canteen is not bad.

Unlike the lightly seasoned and nutritionally balanced food at the Bufati Mansion canteen, the food at the Rosewood Club is noticeably heavier, with rich, oily sauces and a focus on various meats.

After all, the two canteens cater to different groups of people.

The mansion's main customers are children, so a lighter diet is preferable.

Most of the attendees were adults, and many of them were doing manual labor. The heavy oil and salt flavors not only made the food more palatable, but also helped replenish the salt lost through sweating.

After the meal, Chao Ke took a walk around the land where the branch store was located.

The land was no longer barren; it was now piled high with various building materials.

It's clear that Carles and his team are quite dedicated to this project; in just one day, they've almost finished preparing the materials.

As an organization capable of constructing the Fontaine Canal, the Rose Society's infrastructure capabilities are beyond question.

It is estimated that the shed outside the Jiaziwei Restaurant in the Huihe District will be completed in a few days.

------------

at the same time.

In a theater somewhere in Fontainebleau, Linnie and Linette are performing a carefully prepared magic show.

The dazzling array of magic tricks and the captivating performances drew continuous cheers from the audience.

Ever since Cesar's case was widely reported, the popularity of siblings Linnie and Lynette has skyrocketed.

By this time, some media outlets seeking to generate buzz had already dubbed Linnie the number one magician of the new generation.

After experiencing the turmoil that comes with fame, Lynette chose to stand behind Lynnie and try to remain as inconspicuous as possible.

Most news media and industry professionals can understand this.

After all, for a magician's assistant, deliberately keeping a low profile is a necessary professional quality.

As a magician's assistant, you should only draw the audience's attention when necessary, and then give the spotlight back to the magician.

Only by distinguishing between primary and secondary elements can a performance be performed well.

As the sun gradually set, today's magic show came to an end.

However, Linnie still had to deal with various interviews from reporters, while Linette could sneak into the theater backstage early, brew a nice cup of hot tea, and wait for her brother's return.

However, when Lynette went to pick up the tea leaves today, she noticed something unusual at the back door of the theater.

"In that box..."

"There seems to be some movement..."

After some thought, Lynette walked slowly toward the box.

A cold glint flashed in her right hand behind her back, and a tiny blade appeared between her fingers.

With some apprehension, Lynette opened the slightly worn-out cardboard box.

"Meow!~"

Several kittens, less than a month old, raised their heads in alarm and stared at Lynette with uneasy eyes.

But the hunger caused by being trapped in the cardboard box left them without the strength to escape.

He could only look at Lynette with eyes filled with tension and wariness.

"It turned out to be an abandoned kitten..."

Lynette tucked the razor blade from between her fingers, crouched down, and looked directly into the eyes of the kittens.

"Meow~meow~meow~"

"Meow meow!"

"Meow meow!"

"Meow---"

It appears that the communication was encrypted.

The kittens realized that Lynette meant no harm, and slowly lowered their aching little heads.

Lynette, however, hesitated at this moment.

Chapter 122 Goodnight and Two Bunches of Slime

Should we bring them back to the mansion? Will bringing them back cause objections from the other family members...?

These are all difficult problems to solve.

But after much hesitation, Lynette picked up the box of kittens and prepared to take them home.

The box of kittens, picked up by Lynette, lay quietly at the bottom, neither making a fuss nor fuss, waiting for the girl in front of them to give them new hope.

Fate has dealt them cruel blows, but Lynette holds the opportunity to change their fate.

Looking at the kittens, weak and starving in the box, Lynette thought of herself and her brother.

No matter what, we have to give it a try.

Even if the situation is bad and the idea of ​​adopting kittens doesn't get the support of family members or [father], at least they can be fed a full meal before leaving.

"Linette, have you rested enough? It's time to go home!"

After finishing her interview with reporters, Linni walked into the theater backstage with relatively light steps.

As soon as Linnie entered, she saw the cardboard box that Linette was holding.

"Lynette, what is this?"

Linnie approached, glanced at the box in her sister's arms, and immediately understood what Linette meant.

"Brother, I want to try it."

Linni nodded, "I'll do my part too."

------------

Fontaine, next to [Jia Zi Wei Restaurant].

Chao Ke climbed out of the pipe opening in the Grey River District and breathed in the air under the sunlight.

The elemental power of water was harnessed to draw a wisp of clear, pure water from the air, which then flowed over Chao Ke's body, carrying away the musty smell unique to the Gray River District.

Seeing that it was already evening, Chao Ke headed directly towards the mansion.

It seems that after so much time, the almond tofu I put into the mold this morning should have solidified into a block by now.

I think it would be nice to add a dessert to the children's dinner.

With a cheerful stride, Chao Ke pushed open the door of the Bufati Mansion.

However, there seems to be a slight conflict among the children at home.

Fortunately, there weren't many people on either side, and most of the children didn't participate but were just watching.

With Chao Ke's arrival, the arguing between the two groups gradually subsided.

After glancing at the people arguing on both sides and then at the kitten beside Lynette, Chao Ke roughly understood the reason for their argument.

Not everyone likes cats, especially children who have been scratched by stray cats, who may be left with some psychological trauma.

It's understandable that they don't want Lynette to keep a cat at home.

But the usually taciturn Lynette acted out of character this time, arguing her case and insisting on keeping them.

He also assured that he would communicate with the kittens to prevent them from bothering family members who do not like cats.

However, the other children clearly did not have high hopes for this, believing that not keeping the kittens at home was the solution.

Seeing both sides of the dispute turn their gaze to him, making him, the "adult" of the fireplace household, participate in the decision-making, Chao Ke felt immense pressure.

Although I like Lynette and I like cats, I can't judge things based on my own preferences, otherwise it would be a betrayal of the other child's trust.

Just as Chao Ke was in a dilemma, the sound of high heels behind him made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking behind him, he saw his older sister, the children's father.

Arecino clapped her hands to draw the children's attention.

"Children, stop this pointless noise."

After Arecino finished speaking, both sides fell silent.

Glancing at the kitten beside Lynette, Arecino said, "If you want to raise one, just raise it yourself. Remember to discipline it well and don't cause trouble for others."

After saying that, Arecino paused for a moment and looked at the faces of the other children on the opposing side of the argument.

After thinking for a moment, he added another sentence.

"If you haven't taught these cats how to behave by the end of this winter, then get rid of them yourself."

After saying that, Arecino glanced at Chao Ke and walked back towards the office.

Chao Ke nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

The siblings have long since developed a tacit understanding; a single glance or gesture is enough for them to understand each other's meaning.

Chao Ke first ruffled the heads of the two arguing children, "Alright, stop arguing. I've added a dessert to everyone's dinner. Go and ask your Uncle Torre to cut it for you."
