Chapter 143: Extra – Modern Era 10

Qi Guanrui looked at these two country bumpkins and once again lowered their threat level by another notch.

Just based on the fact that they could be dazzled by even this little bit of stuff, even the maids by Ziche Shubai’s side were more high-end and classy than them. They completely lacked the possibility of competition.

Forget it, just treat them as Ziche Shubai’s two pets. That’s amusing enough.

Thus, Wei “Pet” Liang and Meng “Pet” Jun stared blankly at their own things for quite a while. Then, when they looked at Qi Guanrui again, it was a kind of gaze as if looking at “God.”

They were just one step away from throwing themselves over and begging to be kept.

Gu Bai very much understood their feelings—actually, if he hadn’t been a rich man for many years already, he would also have been very shocked by this level of extravagance, okay? One must know that back then, when he was first the lord of a city, he had to stare at his own private treasury and fantasize for a long time every day, alright? If it weren’t for the fact that later, tidying up the “city atmosphere” required huge expenses, he would have continued being deeply insane for a long time, alright? But, once being rich became a habit, he was as calm as still water, as steady as Mount Tai…

After finally sorting out their emotions and calming down, Wei Liang and Meng Jun sat at the dining table.

On the table, it was already filled with all kinds of dishes, rich in color, fragrance, and taste. All the ingredients were fresh, but completely unrecognizable as to what exactly they were (Note: Specialty dishes from Lingwu Continent, you deserve to have them). Just one glance made people produce endless saliva.

#Every meal has the grand style of a Manchu Han Imperial Feast#
#On how men capture a person’s stomach to capture their heart#
#The happy life of a foodie#

Wei Liang hesitated: “These are…”

Qi Guanrui was already smiling as he looked at Gu Bai. “I personally made these for gege. Is gege satisfied? It’s just a pity that I’m not used to the kitchen utensils here yet, so perhaps the taste is slightly worse. Gege, don’t blame me.”

Gu Bai: “Eat first, then talk.”

Truly noble and coldly elegant!

Wei Liang and Meng Jun looked at each other.

Damn it, although they had already heard that their best friend/boss had a habit of acting [BLEEP], they didn’t expect that once he started acting, it would actually be this ridiculous! Was he even letting people believe this was the real person? His temperament was too cold and distant, right?!

Wei Liang took a deep breath. This was exactly the type of high-and-mighty person that us lowly nobodies desperately wanted to slap in the face!

Meng Jun’s eyes sparkled. How to deal with the fact that he loved his idol even more now?!

Next, Qi Guanrui casually waved his hand at them and spoke: “You two also sit, gege is already hungry.”

Wei Liang and Meng Jun: “……”

Then, they decisively sat down.

This was a meal personally made by a freak! Who could have imagined, who had the fortune to have this bite to eat? They had to try it!

But not even two minutes later, they were already restless.

Speaking of which…

Who was that cool man stretching out his hand and having each finger wiped one by one with a towel?!

Who was that tender-faced, flower-blooming smile, deeply affectionate, attentively serving man?!

Hey, hey, is this a high-level disabled person or what? Does he need to have someone pick food, pour drinks, wipe his mouth, refill his rice, and coax him gently all together or what?!

Even five-star hotel top-class waiters wouldn’t do this, okay?!

In the damned feudal society, it wasn’t even this exaggerated, alright?!

Their dog* eyes were about to go blind… no, already blind.

*[T/N: Being fed dog food = being a dog = being single and having a couple shove their love in your face.]

Hurry and bring a dozen titanium-alloy ones!

Wei Liang was speechless and choked up, always feeling that his already very lazy shut-in childhood friend, under this kind of meticulous “care,” was becoming even more degenerate… What was with this strong sense of conspiracy, dammit?!

At this moment, Meng Jun finally stopped worshipping the idol and boss, instead sighing, looking to the side with some melancholy: “Sissy, do you feel like we are glowing?” [T/N: Out of place.]

Wei Liang solemnly nodded: “Like beacons in the dark, couldn’t be brighter!”

The two of them quickly shared less than one-tenth of the food on the table and decided to take their leave.

Not to mention anything else, one of them was Gu Bai’s close friend, who had participated in drafting the outline of Gu Bai’s first harem novel, and the other was a die-hard fan who had followed this book from the very beginning. Besides Gu Bai himself, it was just the two of them who understood the protagonist of that book the best.

A second-dimensional freak, upon reaching the third dimension, could he become a normal person? No.

For the sake of their lives, they resolutely decided to retreat—

As for Gu Bai…

Wei Liang glanced at the two men over there, practically one step away from sitting on each other’s laps… and silently turned his face away.

Little cabbage’s own son, his own lover, his own problem—solve it yourself, dear.

Soon, Wei Liang and Meng Jun disappeared outside the door.

Gu Bai lifted his head to take a look, then continued receiving the freak’s feeding.

Not long after, he felt he was about full. He lifted his face to let Qi Guanrui wipe his mouth again, then stood up and walked around to digest.

Now, he was no longer the past him. With such nutritious food eaten, he truly needed to digest well.

Afterwards, Gu Bai walked circles around the room for a while.

Qi Guanrui waved his hand, storing all the leftovers on the table into a spatial artifact, immediately making the table spotless.

When Gu Bai happened to walk back around, his gaze unintentionally swept over the sofa…

Damn, this was too terrifying!

Right there, on his own soft, comfortable, and cozy sofa, lay a person quietly.

Long black hair like satin, only wearing a simple plain robe, a handsome young man, with an appearance and temperament so flawless that there wasn’t a single flaw…

So handsome that there were no friends.

And this face, this person, in the past few hundred years, Gu Bai had seen it in the mirror at least ten thousand times!

Wasn’t this Ziche Shubai’s body?!

That freak came breaking through dimensions to find him and even didn’t forget to bring the corpse along?!

What was even more terrifying was that he had no idea, after his soul left the body, whether that freak had done anything bad to this corpse!

Just thinking about it made him want to pee his pants, okay?!

He absolutely didn’t dare to imagine further.

Gu Bai expressionlessly stared, his heart full of entanglement.

But at this moment, the door opened.

Wei Liang walked in: “Sorry to bother, Little Cabbage, I think I accidentally took your key—huh?”

Yes, at every critical moment, there would always be that one person who forgot/took the wrong key/something else, and then accidentally glimpsed an unspeakable secret, leading to getting caught up in the swirling vortex of trouble.

But the current situation seemed to be escalating from getting caught in trouble to being silenced… right?

Wei Liang: …Can I pretend I didn’t see anything and leave now?
