My love game is too abstract

#214 - A date for five people

"A stage play?"

Ze Xia still had a book in her hands, her pretty face slightly curious.

"That's right, a stage play, this Saturday, Visana Grand Theatre, 'The Hero and the Dragon'. I heard that the screenwriter is Ovando." Yarrow said to her.

The silver dragon tilted her head: "Who is Ovando?"

"Uh, you've read three or four of his novels, and you don't even know who he is?" Yarrow was a little speechless.

He ran to a bookshelf on the side and threw a book to Ze Xia.

That was the first book she read:

"The Legend of the Divine Dragon Hero"

"This one is said to be the best writer at describing dragons. Several dragon-related novels you've read before were written by him. This time, he is rarely serving as the screenwriter for a stage play, choosing the dragon theme that he is best at. Many people are looking forward to it," Yarrow said.

"Moreover, I heard that the author himself will also hold an offline signing session for the collector's edition of the stage play script."

He learned about this information from the newspaper. It was for this reason that he felt that Ze Xia should be very interested in this stage play.

Who knew that Ze Xia would snort coldly:

"So, this is the guy who wrote so many unfinished works."

"Uh, unfinished?"

"Yes, not only are there several series without endings, but the endings that do exist are garbage, senselessly killing off important characters, with insane plot twists, and there's even one book that's almost at the finale and says that the previous installments will be overturned and rewritten."

"So, this is the guy who wrote the trash that wasted so much of my time."

As she spoke, Ze Xia's face turned gloomy.

"Perfect. This time, I will meet this beast."

"Uh..." Yarrow's face changed, and he twitched his lips.

"Or... maybe we should forget about it..."

"Why should we forget about it? I'm already interested." Ze Xia looked at him: "Order tickets, for the evening show."

"Evening... evening show?"

"To dispose of the body under the cover of night."

Ze Xia said indifferently.

"Ah, I hope there won't be any problems by then..."

Yarrow thought, looking at the two stage play tickets in his hand.

As soon as he finished booking the tickets and returned home, he saw Ji Xiaofei running towards him in a hurry.

"Yarrow, Yarrow! Something big happened!" She said, pulling on Yarrow's hand in a flustered manner.

"What is it now?"

"Look at this!"

Xiao Ji took out a flyer with the new product from the Rainbow House Dessert Shop:

"Alice in Wonderland Extra-Large Fruit Cream Vanilla Cup."

"Available this Saturday, limited to twenty servings."

"This is super delicious!"

Ji Xiaofei said to him with sparkling eyes, unable to resist swallowing her saliva.

"Then just go buy it, right? You get pocket money usually, right?" Yarrow said.

"But, this is a special offer for parents and children. Only adults can buy it!" Ji Xiaofei said.

"Then go find Serena."

"Ugh..." Ji Xiaofei lowered her head, "Serena said she has something to do on Saturday..."

"But on Saturday, I also..."

Just as Yarrow was about to tell her that he also had something to do on Saturday, Ji Xiaofei suddenly raised her head, looking at him with sparkling eyes, her eyes filled with infinite longing:

"But, Yarrow, you'll definitely take me, right? You will, right? This is super delicious!"

"Uh..."

Feeling the plea that was almost solidifying, Yarrow sighed helplessly: "Alright, alright, I'll take you."

"Yay! I love Yarrow!" Ji Xiaofei cheered and jumped up, running away excitedly.

"Forget it, anyway, it's the evening show. There's still time to go earlier during the day," Yarrow shrugged and said.

He came to the study, where Serena was flipping through a large book, looking for something.

Seeing him come, she immediately said: "Yarrow, you've come at the right time. Accompany me to the underground market this Saturday."

"Huh?" Yarrow frowned: "Why do you suddenly want to go to the underground market?"

The royal capital's underground market, also known as the black market, is just like the traditional concept of a black market. As long as you have money, you can get anything.

But because of this, it is accompanied by various criminal activities.

So, it's best to bring a companion with you to have someone to look after you in case of accidents.

"This..." Serena said a little embarrassedly, "Didn't I get a lot of Ze Xia's hair a few days ago? It just so happens that I can unlock a new potion recipe, but I'm just missing one alchemical material, and this kind of alchemical material is usually only available in the black market."

She looked at Yarrow pleadingly: "But you also know the environment of the black market. I'm really a little afraid to go in alone, so..."

Yarrow looked at her with a complicated expression: "Can it only be on Saturday?"

Serena nodded: "I got news from the alchemy workshop that the black market has recently received a batch of that kind of alchemical material. If I don't go in time, it will be sold out soon."

"This..."

Yarrow showed an embarrassed expression.

"Do you have something to do on Saturday?" Serena realized something.

Yarrow wanted to tell her directly that he was not free, but when he thought about how important this matter was to Serena, he couldn't say it.

Forget it, at worst, I'll just go quickly. Buying something won't take much time.

So, he said:

"I'm free, but can we go earlier?"

"Okay!" Serena said happily, clapping her hands, "Then I'll have to trouble you then."

"In the latest and greatest novel on Liu 9 Shu Ba, the first release!"

"In the end, I made plans with Serena... Sigh, I'm going to be busy that day," he thought as he walked out of the study.

After passing a corridor corner, he almost bumped into Tao Hu, who was coming towards him.

"Yarrow! I was just about to look for you!" Tao Hu said with a smile.

"You also have something to do?" Yarrow had a bad feeling.

"That's right!" Tao Hu said enthusiastically, "I recently learned a very interesting spell, but because of the special nature of the spell, I need to choose an auspicious day to use it."

Yarrow raised his eyebrows: "This Saturday?"

"That's right!" Tao Hu said: "This spell can only be used during the Fire Month, Fire Day, and Fire Hour of the year. I calculated that it's this Saturday at exactly five o'clock in the afternoon! There's only one chance a year!"

Tao Hu took his hand and asked with a look of anticipation: "I found an open space on the small hillside. It's quiet and no one will come to disturb us. Will Yarrow come to see it then?"

"This..."

Yarrow really wanted to refuse, but he couldn't bear to see the little fox's expression.

Once a year... I really can't bear to spoil her mood.

"Okay..." he said.

"Thank you!" Tao Hu said happily.

"Then, I'll tell you the place later. You have to come early!"

The little fox ran away.

"I've made plans with another one... Isn't the time even tighter now?"

"Yarrow."

At this time, Lulu La's voice came from behind.

Turning his head, he saw her with her hands behind her back, smiling at him mysteriously.

"Lulu La, wha... what's wrong?" He felt a jolt in his heart, and the bad feeling became stronger.
