People are fighting to open a pastry shop

Chapter 43

After coming out of Xiao Ning's residence, Xiao Cheng walked to the residence where Xiao Xun'er said Xiao Ning said.

During this period, he was also admiring the environment around the Xiao family. Although it was not very beautiful, it was unique in style.

"The environment is good, but it's a pity that it doesn't meet my aesthetics"

About a few minutes later, Xiao Cheng found Xiao Xun'er's residence. Coincidentally, Xiao Xun'er was about to go out, and the two met like this.

"Hi, Miss Xun'er"

Xiao Cheng stretched out his hand and said hello with a smile.

Xiao Xun'er was obviously stunned for a moment, and after coming to his senses, he said with a smile.

"Manager Xiao, why are you here at Xiao's house?"

"The first is to be a guest, the second, of course, is to bring you a cream cake, here, here you are"

He handed the cream cake into Xiao Xun'er's hand and smiled at her.

"I really need to trouble you, the store manager."

Looking at the cream cake in his hand, Xiao Xun'er was still very happy and said apologetically to Xiao Cheng.

"It's okay, anyway, it's on the way, so I'll bring it over."

"Are you going out?"

"Yeah, I'm going out to do some errands"

Xiao Xun'er said with a sweet smile.

"Okay, then you can go about your own business. By the way, where is Xiao Yan's residence? I'll go talk to him."

Xiao Cheng suddenly remembered that Xiao Yan seemed to have only visited the store a few times recently, so he asked Xiao Xun'er where Xiao Yan lived, and wanted to visit him.

"Brother Xiao Yan's residence is at."

Xiao Xun'er briefly told Xiao Cheng where Xiao Yan lived, and added one last sentence.

"If you can't find him in the room, you can find him in the back mountain of Xiao's house"

"Thank you, Miss Xun'er, I'm leaving"

After talking to Xiao Xun'er, he went to find Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan in the room was still sitting cross-legged practicing, and there was still some unfinished Misandao in the paper bag on the table next to him.

Yao Lao's figure floated in the air, looking at the Misandao in the paper bag from time to time, and sighed in admiration.

"It's really a miraculous food. I didn't find any medicinal ingredients in it. It's so strange."

With the end of a strange knot, Xiao Yan opened his eyes, just in time to hear Yao Lao's muttering, he couldn't help laughing.

"Teacher, don't study Misan Dao, even if you learn to make it yourself, it won't have such an effect."

In fact, Xiao Yan knew very well that Xiao Cheng was similar to him and had received some mysterious opportunities. That's why Xiao Yan told Yao Lao not to waste his time on research. This was just a waste of effort.

"I'm just doing research, curious, understand?"

Yao Lao retorted.

Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly. Sometimes his teacher was as wise as a fool, and other times he was just like a middle-aged boy, which made people speechless.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and a familiar voice sounded.

"Is Xiao Yan in there? I'm Xiao Cheng, the store manager"

Xiao Yan was stunned, but Yao Lao immediately returned to the ring and sent a message to Xiao Yan.

"Apprentice, Manager Xiao is here, let me hide for a while"

"Oh, ok, here we come, wait a minute"

Xiao Yan responded casually, cleaned up the room briefly, and opened the door.

Seeing Xiao Cheng looking at him with a smile, he also said with a smile.

"Why is Store Manager Xiao coming to Xiao's house when you have time?"

"Come to Xiao's house for a visit, and bring some pastries for a few people."

I explained it casually and stopped talking.

Walking into Xiao Yan's room, the decoration in the room is quite simple, and there is a faint scent of medicinal materials. He guessed that these should be the medicinal materials needed to refine the foundation building liquid.

Then he turned around and saw a wooden basin placed in the corner. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and it disappeared in a flash.

It's just that Xiao Yan didn't notice the upturned corners of Xiao Cheng's mouth.

Xiao Cheng thought to himself.

"Xiao Yan, a fellow villager, seems to have already started to practice with the foundation-building spiritual liquid. Do you want to ask Xiao Yan for some spiritual liquid to strengthen your cultivation? After all, you are always relying on missions to improve, and the progress is too slow."

In Dou Qi Continent, if one's strength is not high, one may encounter a crisis, but if one's strength is strong, one may not be able to protect oneself.

It’s just that the law of this world is that the strong survive, the weak are eliminated, the strong make the rules, and the weak abide by the rules.

Xiao Chengcai doesn't want to be a weak person who follows the rules. He is a man with a system, so he must become a strong person who makes the rules.

But the matter of asking Xiao Yan for foundation-building spiritual fluid cannot be discussed now. We can only find a suitable time to bring it up.

"Master Xiao, how did you come here?"

The hidden meaning of Xiao Yan's words is asking "How did you come to Dou Qi Continent?"

He didn't answer Xiao Yan's words, but glanced at the simple black ring on Xiao Yan's finger meaningfully, and showed a meaningful smile.

Seeing Xiao Cheng looking at the ring on his finger, Xiao Yan remembered that there was an outsider here, so he smiled awkwardly and changed the subject.

"Shop Manager Xiao, the business in your store has been pretty good recently, right?"

"Fortunately, business is good"

The two fell into a brief silence. Suddenly, Xiao Xun'er's voice sounded from outside the door.

"Brother Xiao Yan, I'm here to find you"

Hearing the familiar voice, the two of them turned to look outside the door, but Xiao Cheng said something profound.

"Brother Xiao Yan, your confidante is here"

Xiao Yan's face turned red rarely, coughed a few times and said.

"Manager Xiao is joking, Xun'er is my sister, no."

Before Yan could finish speaking, Xiao Cheng patted him on the shoulder, with an expression that I understood, and said immediately.

"Okay, I'm going to go to other places. I'll go back later to see how the store is doing. Let's go."

Xiao Xun'er happened to see Xiao Cheng walking out of Xiao Yan's room, and said with a smile.

"Master Xiao, are you leaving?"

"No, I have to take a look at the Xiao family's environment, maybe I won't have time to come here in the future, so take a look, take a look."

"Take that, Manager Xiao. Some places are not allowed to enter, so the manager should pay more attention."

Xiao Xun'er reminded.

"understood"

Xiao Cheng smiled, blinked at Xiao Yan, smiled, turned and left.

But at this time, Xiao Xun'er took Xiao Yan back to the house and took out the cream cake that Xiao Cheng had just sent from his Qiankun Ring.

"Brother Xiao Yan, this is Ruyizhai's new pastry. Let's eat it together."

Xiao Xun'er said to Xiao Yan with a smile.

Xiao Yan felt a slight warmth in his heart.

"Xun'er, thank you for taking care of me so much"

"You don't have to say thank you to me. Who used Douqi to nourish my body every night when I was sleeping when I was a kid?"

Xiao Xun'er blinked playfully, and kept staring at Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan felt a little uncomfortable being watched, his face flushed, and he coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment.

Xiao Xun'er said with a smile.

"Okay, let's eat this cream cake together"

"Um"

Xiao Yan nodded and showed a sincere and warm smile.

Time seemed to stand still, frozen in this warm moment.

Xiao Cheng accidentally triggered a limited time mission at this time, which made him feel speechless.

[Congratulations to the host for triggering the time-limited mission, do you want to check it?]

Then Xiao Cheng saw the somewhat confusing mission content.

Limited time mission: The host is asked to find a way to enter the Xiao family's fighting hall. Staying for 3 minutes will be deemed as completing this mission.

Mission Reward: Mysterious Gift Pack (Note, there is a certain chance to get rare items)
Mission failed: Xiao Zhan's favorability -99999
Mission time: before leaving the Xiao family.

This task made Xiao Cheng feel bad.

"Small point, are you taking revenge on me? I'm not mean to you, but you treat me like this. Where's your conscience?"

[Host, I have no conscience, I am just a program]

Xiao Cheng: "."

"Oh, this mission comes at the right time, and with this punishment, why don't you just change it to being hunted down by the Xiao family? It's such a fool's errand."

Although he was extremely resistant to this task, he decided to turn his bicycle into a motorcycle, gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and went to Xiao Zhan to discuss it.
