This dream is a bit unrealistic, isn't it? After all, Curry-sensei is such a talented person, and I actually fantasized about marrying him…
"How can you be so sure that Curry Teacher is a man?" Yuanbao asked, looking at Zhen Mi's embarrassed face with a strange expression. Finally, he broke the silence.
"I didn't say that Curry Teacher is a man." With her arms crossed in front of her chest, Zhen Mi said matter-of-factly, "If you truly love someone, you don't need to care about gender, right? Whether Curry Teacher is a man or a woman, I'm willing to marry him!"
"Then how do you know if Curry Teacher is already married?" The person who spoke was now Ruyi.
A closer look reveals that when this girl looked at Zhen Mi, there was already a hint of hostility in her eyes.
"If Curry Teacher is already married..."
Tilting her head in distress, Zhen Mi had never really considered this question.
However, just as her gaze inadvertently swept over the crowd in front of her, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"It seems like becoming Curry Teacher's concubine isn't so bad, is it? After all, the sisters can share Fellow Daoist Yuze's love, so I should be able to get along well with Curry Teacher's wife or husband!"
"No, aren't you the only daughter of the owner of Mirror Lake Manor? If you do this, will your family agree? Besides, shouldn't someone as privileged as you have lofty ambitions? How can you tolerate sharing a husband with someone else?"
It's clear that Ruyi is getting a little anxious.
However, Zhen Mi did not change her original intention because of this: "In the face of true love, power and self-esteem are nothing but fleeting clouds. Although I have been born in Mirror Lake Villa since I was a child and have lived a life without worries about food and clothing, if I really encounter something I like, I will definitely bravely pursue it even if I have to give up everything I have now."
"Reality and ideals are different."
Ruyi shook her head and said, "Perhaps your ideals are indeed very lofty, but the harsh reality can be deadly. However, as the young lady of Mirror Lake Manor, you have never suffered since childhood, so it is quite normal that you do not understand the sense of powerlessness after giving up everything."
"Sister, I admit you're right. However..."
Zhen Mi, as if suddenly realizing something, suddenly covered her mouth with a mischievous grin: "The reason you're suddenly being so confrontational with me, is it because... you're also a huge fan of Curry Ao's books!?"
"I... I'm not that bored!"
As if someone had poked a hole in her lungs, Ruyi immediately denied it in an extremely unconvincing manner.
"Oh? Sister, you really haven't read Curry Ao's storybooks?"
"That 'Ten Years of Scavenging Dung, and the Sect Leader's Daughter Develops Feelings for Me!' you mentioned? I haven't read it at all! And that 'The Empress's Soft Rice Man' sounds pretty boring too. Not to mention the latest one, 'Possessing the Villainous Young Master, I'll Start Doing a Good Deed Every Day from Today On,' which updates at an insanely slow pace!"
"Eh?"
After blinking and briefly pausing, Zhen Mi's emotions, which she had finally managed to calm down, suddenly surged again.
"Possessing the Villainous Young Master, I'll Do One Good Deed Every Day Starting Today!? Could this be Curry Ao's new book? But if it were a new book, I should have received the news immediately, right? Where did you see this book, sister?"
"hiss--"
Chen Yuze, who was standing next to him, immediately gasped.
Because he was planning a trip to Tushan, which would inevitably mean a few days of interruption in his updates, he hadn't even shown the new book to GuGu yet! Let alone discussed publication!
But to his surprise, Ruyi let it slip.
Moreover, this was done in front of Zhen Mi, a... die-hard fan of the book.
"Uh……"
Realizing her mistake, Ruyi's expression became awkward.
Now, she even feels like a lingerie thief who keeps saying he's not a pervert but has evidence of his crimes found on his body!
Moreover, she herself mistook this evidence for a handkerchief to wipe her sweat and pulled it out of her pocket!
"Um, I... I already said I don't like Curry Teacher at all, right? I... I must have remembered the wrong author of the different stories!"
"impossible!"
Clenching her soft, white fist, Zhen Mi said with absolute certainty, "A book title as artistic as this could only come up with by Teacher Curry!"
"Artistic, artistic atmosphere!?"
Chen Yuze, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
In other words, girl, isn't your filter for Curry Teacher a bit too strong?
I just randomly came up with this book title because it's trendy! Which word actually has anything to do with an artistic feel?
"This, this, I..."
"Actually, it's like this." Seeing that Ruyi really didn't know how to explain this, Bai Hua finally stepped in to smooth things over for her:
“We have a relative who works at a bookstore that publishes the storybooks written by Curry Ao. The new storybook that Ruyi just mentioned has not actually been officially released yet. What we have seen is just the first draft written by Curry Ao.”
"It can actually be viewed"
Curry Chef's first draft! This is just too good to be true!
After swallowing a large mouthful of saliva, Zhen Mi seemed to have discovered a new continent, and even her breathing became much heavier.
Bai Hua's solution was to cater to their preferences:
"We happen to have these drafts with us. If Fairy Zhenmi wants to see them, you can have a look. However, you must promise us that you will not tell anyone else what you see, okay?"
"Please let me see this!!! I swear by the heavens and demons that if anyone tells anyone what I saw today, my cousin will die a horrible death!"
304. You think your house isn't big enough?
"That was amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
Sitting in the rocking chair, she flipped through the draft of Chen Yuze's new book. Almost every few moments, Zhen Mi would let out a few gasps of surprise.
"Although the new story is no longer a romance, it uses possession as the starting point of the entire story, gradually unfolding a fast-paced narrative! Moreover, the changes in this young master after being possessed, and the reactions of those around him to this transformation, are all very interesting highlights! As expected of Curry Ao, he has managed to write such a unique story! I have a feeling that the response to this new story will be even greater than the previous two!"
"Fairy Zhenmi, you really enjoy reading storybooks."
Seeing Zhen Mi completely immersed in the world of the storybook, Chen Yuze smiled and handed her a cup of hot flower tea, along with some snacks that girls usually like to eat:
"Here's some hibiscus tea that I made myself, and some Meow Meow Snow Biscuits. Please try some if you don't mind. It'll be more fun to keep your mouth busy while reading the storybook."
"Thank you."
Most girls, if treated with such thoughtful hospitality by a handsome guy like Chen Yuze, would probably immediately have hearts in their eyes and start having sweet fantasies.
But Zhen Mi was different.
After glancing briefly at Chen Yuze, she continued to focus her attention on the storybook in her hands.
What's the use of being handsome? You're nothing but a pretty skeleton!
In Zhen Mi's eyes, a person's talent is the most important thing!
In this world, if we're talking about talent alone, she doesn't think anyone can surpass Teacher Curry.
So, after a while, Zhen Mi finally picked up the cup of roselle tea that Chen Yuze had placed on the wooden table and took a small sip.
This one sip, however, immediately interrupted her thoughts of reading the storybook and drew her attention to the cup of floral tea in her hand.
In fact, to avoid revealing that he had too many good things, the flower tea and snacks that Chen Yuze brewed for Zhen Mi were all handmade by himself, rather than produced by the system.
But don't forget, the tea leaves for these flower teas were all grown in the backyard of the Chen family's courtyard.
Even snacks are processed by Shan Hai Kitchenware.
Zhen Mi realized that the tea was unusual almost the instant she drank it.
It not only keeps one's mind clear and makes one's thoughts more lucid, but it also subtly helps one forget troubles and relieve inner turmoil.
Out of curiosity, Zhen Mi then picked up the Meow Meow Snow Biscuit from the plate and took a bite.
"Snap—"
As the sound of the rice cracker being bitten rang out, a rich aroma of rice burst forth in Zhen Mi's mouth.
Add to that the slightly sweet 'snowflakes' on the surface of the pastry, and it's simply irresistible.
What's even more surprising is that this snow cake actually contains a considerable amount of spiritual energy. After swallowing it, this spiritual energy quickly flowed through Zhen Mi's limbs and bones, transforming into demonic power.
"How is it? Not bad, right?" Seeing Zhen Mi finally start eating, Chen Yuze stood up from the rocking chair with extra pride: "These snacks are what my wives usually like to eat."
"snack?"
She looked at the rice cracker in her hand, then at Chen Yuze.
Zhen Mi's expression immediately turned strange.
To be fair, the effects of these snow cakes are no less than some of the top-grade pills from Mirror Lake Manor.
And you're telling me this treasure, comparable to a top-grade elixir, is just a snack in your house?
Let alone Mirror Lake Manor, even a first-class power like Tushan would not treat such a treasure as a snack!
"Fellow Daoist Yuze, why don't you take these snow cakes back?"
"what?"
Chen Yuze was completely captivated by Zhen Mi's statement.
"Could it be that these Meow Meow Snow Biscuits don't suit Fairy Zhen Mi's taste?"
"No."
Zhen Mi quickly shook her head.
Is this snow biscuit delicious? Of course it is!
Rather, it's more accurate to say that Zhen Mi had never tasted such delicious crispy cakes in her entire life.
The problem is, these snow cakes are just too expensive.
She truly did not want Chen Yuze and his group, who had invited her to read Curry Ao's new storybook, to do something like putting on a show just to fulfill their hospitality.
"These snow cakes are delicious, but they are far too precious. Rather than me eating them, I would prefer to let Fellow Daoist Yuze's partner eat them."
"Precious?" Chen Yuze's confusion deepened.
Just then, a delicate, white hand quietly reached for the plate containing the Meow Meow Snow Biscuits:
"I'm Mr. Meal Ticket's Daoist partner! So I won't stand on ceremony~"
With a crunching sound, a plate of Meow Meow Snow Biscuits was almost completely devoured by Luo Xin in the blink of an eye.
"Luo Xin!"
Chen Yuze immediately criticized her behavior: "These are snacks prepared for the guests. How could you take them and eat them yourself?"
Although Zhen Mi was also shocked by Luo Xin's actions, seeing Chen Yuze's serious expression, she immediately tried to defend Luo Xin:
“Fellow Daoist Yuze! These snow cakes are precious, but they will ultimately end up in your partner's stomach. You don't need to make things difficult for this sister over this, do you?”
