Chapter 115: Bai Luochu’s Decision (1/2)
Thinking up to this point, Ying Lan suddenly thought of something and quickly called out to the waiter again and instructed him, “Go and prepare an invitation card and write the words, ‘Remote Paddy Inn came up with new dishes and desserts. As we are indebted to Young Lady Luo Chu, we would like to invite Young Lady Luo Chu to test our new dishes this afternoon.’ After writing the letter, you will quickly deliver it to the former general’s residence personally. Do not deliver it to the current great general's residence, otherwise, your life will be at stake. Do you remember my instructions?”
“I will keep it in mind. Commander Ying doesn’t have to worry, I might only be a waiter, but I carry out all my tasks properly. I will go right now.” That waiter immediately headed off to carry out the tasks instructed by Ying Lan.
Ying Lan had entrusted this task to this waiter because he was the most quick-witted among all the other servants in the Remote Paddy Inn, not counting Cai Ling who had left with Bai Luochu. Ying Lan saw that there was nothing else for him to do and he quickly left the inn. He prepared to contact all the capable craftsmen in the city. To avoid encountering any problems, he went to the accounts room to redeem some silver notes in case of an emergency.
While Ying Lan completed his work in the morning, Bai Luochu shoved the last of her breakfast in her mouth. She immediately continued her spiritual energy cultivation. Since she wanted to set up a contract with a spirit beast, she had to greatly improve her spiritual energy before anything else. Otherwise, if she attempted to make a contract without sufficient strength, she would suffer a backlash. If she was fortunate, she would suffer some damage mentally and turn into a retard. If she was unfortunate, she would have to take a trip to the netherworld. These were all bloody precedents left by predecessors and she wasn’t going to follow in their footsteps.
Bai Luochu had just entered her room for a short moment before she heard knocking at her door. She then heard Cai Ling’s voice, “Mistress, there is an invitation card from the Remote Paddy Inn.”
When Bai Luochu heard the three words, ‘Remote Paddy Inn’, she knew that Ying Lan probably had something urgent that required her attention. She immediately allowed Cai Ling to enter.
After Cai Ling entered, she closed the doors tightly in order to avoid anyone from eavesdropping. She walked in front of Bai Luochu and handed over the invitation card. Cai Ling waited for Bai Luochu to read the entire card before asking carefully, “Mistress, is something wrong?”
Bai Luochu placed the card by the side and continued her cultivation. Cai Ling left quietly to avoid making any commotions and disrupting Bai Luochu’s cultivation.
Time flashed by. For Bai Luochu who was immersed in cultivation, the long morning passed in the blink of an eye. When Cai Ling saw that it was almost time, she knocked on the door and pulled Bai Luochu back from her state of cultivation.
When Bai Luochu arrived at the Remote Paddy Inn, Ying Lan had already waited for a long time in the private room.
When Bai Luochu entered the room, she immediately heard a ‘plop’ sound and saw that Ying Lan was already kneeling on the floor.
