Chapter 463 - A Free Riding But Meeting a Crazy Dog (I) (1/2)
The woman who loves hibiscuses is her friend, Baojia.
Baojia grew up in the capital. She is a forthright and generous girl like all girls from the North. She transferred to a high school in Rong City, a misty and rainy small town where the Lins were. There are many gingko trees and hibiscuses in this city. As time goes by, Baojia even likes hibiscuses much more than the native Rong City resident Lin Luoran.
When Baojia was a jewelry designer at the beginning, she once said that she wanted to use diamonds to make a hibiscus flower, which is really a beauty that never fades. But at that time, she was just a little famous and Huaxia always valued foreign designers much more than domestic ones. Therefore, the whole society didn’t pay enough attention to local designers. The beauty of hibiscus flowers lies in the gradual change between white and pink, which takes a lot of pink diamonds. Baojia was not famous enough at that time so Fortune House would not support her to do this kind of design for a niche market—in the eyes of smart merchants, it is convenient and easy to sell rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. At most, they may choose to sell brooches which are consumable products with huge potential.
Lin Luoran does not expect she will see that Baojia’s idea comes true perfectly at all costs on the other side of the distant starry sky one day.
From the fat man, the third prince, Lin Luoran gets a true message that there is actually a female designer called Nolan Mancia in the royal family. She is so mysterious that even royals like them have never seen her.
Aristocrats have years of history and their names can be so complex and long that even a cultivator like Lin Luoran will feel troublesome. To make it simple, fatty generally introduces himself as “Judith Windsor”. It is very girlish and it does not match his movement at the dinner table.
Although the name is girlish, Judith is still a man. He is seldom interested in women’s jewelry stuff. Lin Luoran also can’t get any meaningful clues from him.
Lin feels very nervous because she may meet her old friend. Finally, she takes her steps. She searched in Maple Leaf City with a spiritual mind which has surprised many people. However, she does not find even one cultivator.
At that time, she was very disappointed and felt that Mancia is not Baojia. Judith told her that the female designer was low-key and mysterious so she does not live in Maple Leaf City. Lin Luoran feels hopeful again.
“Will that designer show up at your sister’s wedding?”
Fatty Judith is staring at two strings of bird eggs baked by Lin Luoran. He has worked hard to steal them from a bird’s nest. Therefore, they look delicious even if he hasn’t tasted them.
“I don’t know. The royal family can’t just force a master with unique skills to show up. Maybe she will show up spontaneously if there are some jewels and masterpieces.”
Lin Luoran sprinkles chopped green onion on the golden roasted bird eggs. She says mysteriously, “Your Highness Judith, you are actually very smart.”
This Nami prince actually thinks of the same thing as her. Instead of looking for the needle in a haystack, it is better to put herself in the light and let Mancia come to her spontaneously.
Judith takes the bird egg and has a pious expression on his face, “Good… it smells so good… Oh, by the way, my sister invites you to go horse riding on the outskirts of the city in the afternoon.”
Lin doesn’t have much interest in riding. However, Windsor should know more than Judith. Unfortunately, Princess Hien Windsor who has a dual ident.i.ty is about to get married and the royal family always keeps an eye on her. She is not allowed to leave the palace again. Lin Luoran wants to see her and going to the manor is really a good choice.
“I will go. Please say thanks to Princess Hien Windsor for me.”
However, isn’t Windsor a bride-to-be now? Lin hears that the old king is in poor health and Windsor is the eldest princess. There is no elder sister nor elder brother to help her but a younger brother who only pays attention to delicious food. She should be very busy with wedding matters. Why does she have the free time to invite her to go to the manor for horse riding?
Does she feel nervous before getting married or is there something she wants to tell her?
Lin Luoran denies the former possibility just by thinking for a second. No matter how elegant the vigorous female pirate leader pretends to be, probably she will never have emotions like shyness or tension in her whole life.
Then there is only the latter possibility.
Lin Luoran thinks about it and notifies all staff in the barbecue restaurant to take a day off. Everyone thanks her and is so happy.
In fact, since Judith and Windsor came that night, the chilies were sold smoothly and they really succeeded in breaking into the royal family. They wanted to close the barbecue restaurant when Derek, the son of the Susan tavern they had once lived in, came for a job—barbecue is all about whether the materials are fresh, the timing is appropriate, and the seasoning tricks are excellent. If he really wants to learn it, it is not a secret recipe.
Lin Luoran doesn’t want to spend her life on the Nami Star so she doesn’t want to keep her recipe a secret. She is very happy to hire the red-haired boy Derek. The siblings of the Ma family are “liberated” and Colin Weir puts on decent and clean clothes again. They all feel so comfortable.
Environmental protection of the Nami Star is good. However, the Reiki in the old forest of the deep mountain is incomparable. Lin Luoran and Derek sign a contract and she almost transfers the barbecue restaurant to him.
They have to find another suitable place for self-cultivation.
Besides searching for Mancia, the other urgent thing is to build the Taoist root for Han Weiya. Of course, there is also the matter of her breaking through into the Gathering Vitality period.
Without enough personal ability, there are many hidden troubles if people try to break through forcibly. However, it is still not a good choice for a cultivator that having plenty of Wakan in the body but still pressing it without taking any advancing.
Just afternoon when it is the hottest hours, four horses pulling a gorgeous carriage stop outside “Hot Girl”. They are here to pick Lin Luoran and others to a suburb manor belonging to the royal family.
