Chapter 212: Farewell
“Su Zhi is terrific.”
Qin Lang patted the little girl’s head as a sign of encouragement, and then finished the rest of the watering work with her.
During this process, both Dan Bao and Spicy put in a lot of effort, making Su Zhi, who adored food spirits, even happier.
When the watering was finished, Song Hui, who was baking desserts in the house, finished his work and came out with the dessert in hand.
“I didn’t expect you to come so early.”
In a pavilion in the Daisy Garden, Mrs. Song Hui laughed and picked up her teapot and poured a cup of flower tea for Qin Lang. “This is flower tea made from petals that fell from the daisies in the garden and were sun-dried and after. It tastes lovely with dessert.”
“Let me try.” Qin Lang looked at the pale red tea in front of him, showing some interest. He put the remaining half piece of dessert in his mouth and took a sip.
The flower tea entered his mouth, and the dessert quickly melted, releasing a sweet taste and a hint of floral fragrance. The scent of the flowers from the dessert intertwined with the flower tea, making this delightful experience even more long-lasting.
“It’s indeed delicious.” Qin Lang showed an amazed expression. After taking two bites, he remembered his purpose of coming and lifted a gift box at his feet, “Auntie Song, this is a mist sculpture I bought after my trip to Qingyang City, I hope you like it.”
“You went to Qingyang City.” Song Hui smiled, took the mist sculpture, looked at it, and showed a delighted expression. “My home needs an ornament, thoughtful of you.”
She did not refuse this gift, which was not high in value but full of sincerity.
“Brother Qin Lang, you were on vacation this time!” Su Zhi suddenly understood and then showed a curious expression, “Where were you?”
“I went to Bai Lu Mountain City and Qingyang City…” Qin Lang smiled and began to vividly describe his travel experiences to Su Zhi and Song Hui.
Unsurprisingly, in this process, Song Hui was also shocked by the speed at which Qin Lang collected the Second-Level Food Recommender Badges.
However, Su Zhi, who hadn’t been exposed to these, was more interested in Qin Lang’s skiing and adventure experiences. After listening, her big eyes were full of anticipation, as if she also wanted to explore places outside Dongxia City.
In the end, when Song Hui heard that Qin Lang was going to join Zhou Qing to attend the Leaping Fish Banquet in Mingjing Province and would pass through Miredi City on the way, she looked thoughtful.
“I didn’t expect your experiences to be so exciting after not seeing you for more than ten days.” She smiled and then said, “If you are going to Miredi City, I might have a favor to ask.”
“Please say, Auntie Song,” Qin Lang politely started, “as long as 1 can help.”
“It’s not a complicated matter.” Song Hui smiled and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, “When you go to Miredi City, you’ll seek the local second-level food recommender, Miss Tang Mi, to try and get your fourth second-level Food Recommender Badge, right?”
“Yes.”
“Miss Tang Mi is sort of my half mentor.” Song Hui showed a hint of nostalgia, “I got a lot of advice from her when I first got into contact with desserts.” “Could you help me deliver a letter to her when you meet her?” she explained, “Although communication is much more convenient now, Miss Tang Mi prefers paper letters.”
“I see.” Qin Lang nodded without hesitation, “That’s not a problem at all.”
“Thank you, then.” Song Hui sighed with relief and stood up, “Please wait a moment.”
She turned and left the garden and went into the house.
After Qin Lang and Su Zhi chatted a bit, Song Hui returned to the pavilion with a letter and a business card, “This is for you.”
“Alright.” Qin Lang took the letter and carefully kept it, and then looked at the business card.
The name on the card was Su Runian, along with his contact info.
“This is…” Qin Lang blinked.
“This is my husband’s card.” Song Hui smiled, “He works in Ye Zhi City. If your trip to Mingjing Province takes you through there, and you run into trouble, you can find him.”
Was it Su Zhi’s father?
Qin Lang realized.
Because of the near-misunderstanding before, he remembered it very clearly, the man had been transferred to Mingjing Province because of work.
Remembering this, Qin Lang expressed his gratitude.
At Song Hui’s kind invitation, he stayed and had lunch in the Daisy Garden before leaving.
“Tweet— ”
The sharp whistle echoed over the open competition venue. After counting to five, the referee of the Spirit Battle spoke up.
“Qin Lang wins this match!”
“Damn it, still a little bit short.” Zhao Chen said regretfully, and recalled his incapacitated Yangyang back into his star vein.
After Yangyang’s promotion to two stars, it awakened a fighting-based combat skill named Gilded Guard, which put it in a very high defense state for a short time. Coupled with its previous Barbaric Collision, its threat had become a lot stronger.
However, sadly, it lost to Spicy in the end and was bitten unconscious.
Since Zhao Chen had advanced to two stars, but had not yet given birth to a second food spirit, Qin Lang did not take advantage of him and chose a one on one battle to decide the outcome.
Dan Bao had already beaten Yangyang many times, so it readily handed the old rival over to an eager Spicy.
“I’m not surprised at all about this conclusion.” Qi Xiaoyu, who strode up quickly, grinned, “Zhao Chen, have you ever calculated how many times you’ve been defeated by Qin Lang?”
“Humph.” Zhao Chen’s expression returned to calm, “Qin Lang could beat me countless times. Still, 1 only need to defeat him once!”
Qin Lang looked at him strangely, “No problem, maybe next time, I could use my third pet to defeat Yangyang.”
Zhao Chen:”???”
“Pff~” Du Weiwei, who was next to them, couldn’t help but laugh. She was amused by their conversation, “There’s a new drink shop nearby, shall we go try it out?”
“Let’s go, let’s go, I saw that the second cup is half price!” Qi Xiaoyu was clearly intrigued.
Despite not seeing each other for a week, the foursome felt no unfamiliarity.
After everyone picked their drinks, they sat around a table and started chatting.
“You’re headed to Mingjing Province tomorrow?!” Once Qin Lang completed his future itinerary, Qi Xiaoyu was suddenly astonished, “So abruptly?”
“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded, “I’m not sure when I’ll be back.”
There are still nineteen days until the start of the Leaping Fish Banquet. But after the feast, Qin Lang may not immediately return to Dongxia City.
Since he’s going to Mingjing Province for the first time, he intends to look at the sea of this world.
Moreover, he promised Uncle Luo Hui to take pictures of the prettiest side of the sea for him.
“In that case, take care on the road.” Du Weiwei looked deep into Qin Lang’s eyes and said softly.
“Old enemy, the next time we meet, I will surely defeat you.” Zhao Chen chuckled, “So, you cannot be easily defeated before that.”
“I promise I won’t.” Qin Lang raised his drink with a smile, “Cheers.”
“Cheers!”
