As for the other...

Cautiously glanced at the girl in front of her and the frog puppet with severed head in her hand, the good professionalism still made the shop owner barely smile:

"Please, what would you like to order?"

Instead of answering the owner's question directly, the girl first asked a question that was irrelevant to the present:

"The two people just now, what exactly did they say?"

"It's just some very common fights between couples."

Frightened by the inexplicable sense of oppression on the girl and the aura of the superior, the uncle owner subconsciously expressed his thoughts:

"That little brother seems to take good care of his girlfriend, and he also told me not to put too much spicy food on her - that's right! They seem to have made an appointment to go to the beach or something -"

"Boom."

A dull sound sounded on the table, startling the shopkeeper uncle.

"enough."

Throwing out a bag of heavy gold coins expressionlessly, the tall slender girl's voice could not hear a trace of joy or anger:

"Nai Nai, what do you want to eat, order it."

"Yes!"

The slightly petite girl stood at attention, and after hesitating for a long time, she cautiously pointed an index finger at the shopkeeper:

"Then, that... can I have a squid's tentacle?"

"I-Is that all?"

The uncle owner tried to make his voice sound calmer:

"Sorry, guest. If you just want a squid tentacle, a few copper coins are enough, you gave too much—"

"—Did I tell you to give you change?"

The tall girl looked into the eyes of the shopkeeper uncle for the first time, obviously looking straight up, but the latter couldn't help but feel a condescending illusion of looking down:

"Time is short, please move faster."

"Yes Yes!!"

Not daring to say more, the uncle of the shop owner didn't even dare to look at the bag of shiny gold coins on the table, and quickly cooked a grilled squid with unprecedented speed in his life:

"Here's your grilled squid."

Seeing that the grilled squid had been successfully handed over to her companion, the tall girl didn't even say a word, turned around and walked towards the direction where the young couple left just now.

On the contrary, the girl exuding a soft temperament bowed to the uncle owner with some embarrassment and apology, and said politely:

"Thank you."

"...No, it's okay..."

Staring blankly at the backs of the two girls who quickly disappeared, and then looking at the bag of gold coins on the table that could make anyone covet, the uncle owner paused for a while, tidied up the shop swiftly, and escaped into the vast night.

I slipped away, hoping that the young couple who came before are all right.

After all, when the tall female guest left, I seemed to read from her eyes... [Chaos].

Chapter 379 The Bloody Lady

"what?"

Feeling that the girl beside him stopped suddenly, Lucy looked at Celica suspiciously:

"what happened?"

"...No, it's fine."

Glancing back imperceptibly, Celica seemed to smile slightly, and then pointed to the shop on the side:

"It's the bartender lady at the guild bar! She also came to the night market to open a shop!"

?

Looking in the direction of Celica's finger, Lu Xi did see the familiar figure of the bartender lady.

As a frequent visitor to the guild bar, Lu Xi is also half acquainted with this lady bartender who is clean and agile in bartending.

Although the bartender lady looked like a cold and beautiful woman in men's clothing, she unexpectedly didn't dislike Fenmao, Lu Xi and others who started making noise as soon as they drank.As long as you give me a little tip, she will even cooperate to replace the spirits in your glass with non-alcoholic fruit juice with a similar smell and color, and she will really be invincible in the wine market.

"Since you saw it, let's say hello~"

Grabbing Lu Xi's sleeve, Celica enthusiastically waved to the bartender:

"Hello Miss Bartender~"

"Huh? Is it Miss Celica? I always feel that you have a different smell today than usual."

She moved her nose in a serious manner, and when the bartender looked at Lu Xi who was following the girl, a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes:

"There is a hint of sweetness in the greenness. Sure enough, the combination of lemon juice and white garden honey is perfect to describe you now."

"Eh? What's that? It sounds delicious!"

As if she didn't hear the ridicule in the bartender's words, Celica nodded to Lu Xi:

"My mouth was dry after eating squid tails just now. Now I want to drink an ice-cold mixed wine. I want the honey and lemon juice that the bartender just said~"

Well, here is also an opportunity to jump face and try.

"learn."

Lu Xi nodded bluntly, and said to the bartender lady:

"Please give this short Miss Celica over here a glass of healthy fruit juice that is good for the body. As for me, just have a glass of ice wine."

"What, why is he not tall!!"

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Xi said the words, he was met with fierce protests from Celica:

"I've reached the age where it's perfectly legal to even drink alcohol! Lucy looks down on people!"

... Although she resisted, neither the self-proclaimed "I" nor the nickname of "Weak Weak Xi" was forced out.

"Protesting is invalid. Since you are coming out with me, the rules must follow my hometown."

Smiling, she stretched out her hand to rub Celica's head, but Lu Xi, who was angrily avoided by the other party, was not angry, but turned back to the bartender to confirm:

"Just do what I said just now."

"Ok."

The bartender's bartending movements were as gorgeous and uncluttered as ever. In just a few minutes, she handed two glasses of colorful cold drinks to the two of them:

"Miss Celica's golden mango drink and Mr. Lu Xi's bloody lady, please use it slowly."

"Bloody... madam?"

Looking at the bright red ominous liquid in front of him, the corners of Lu Xi's mouth twitched:

"Miss bartender, what do you mean?"

"You misunderstood. There is no deep meaning behind the selection of this cup, but the tomato juice with a touch of sweet and sour taste is very suitable for this cool night."

Without revealing any flaws, the bartender responded impeccably:

"...I hope that the bright red liquid in the cup will always be [Madame Bloody] (whispers)."

Gan!Why do I always feel that there is something in your words? !

Lu Xi, who shivered for some reason, was about to ask in detail, but Celica, who happily took two glasses of iced drinks, greeted him:

"There are still a lot of good things ahead, since we got the drink, let's move on!"

Although she came here to try out Fenmao's suggestion, but it's rare to go out to play with her, it's really hard to dampen her interest.

Lucy had no choice but to follow.

------------------

"Give me my cup."

"No~want~"

"..."

Speechlessly looking at Celica who was holding two cups of cold drinks and not letting go, Lu Xi sighed deeply:

"Why?"

"Because it's cool to hold it with both hands~"

Like the evening wind in summer, Celica's answer was simple and clear:

"Besides, I heard that drinking too much cold food is bad for the stomach, so warm it up a little before giving it to Lucy~"

She does care about people.

Being caught in the heart by the childish yet caring and considerate cuteness of the girl beside her, Lu Xi slightly looked away, and said somewhat unnaturally:

"It doesn't matter, I'm glad someone is willing to help me get a drink."

"Hehe~"

Is what Cupid said really true?

Turning his eyes secretly to the petite and well-behaved Lika who was holding two cups of cold drinks beside him, this question once again appeared in Lu Xi's mind.

It wasn't the reason like "bewitched" as I guessed, it was just because Celica "wanted to change", so she got rid of her problems like this - with her "do it when you think about it!"Go, go, go! ]’s simple life attitude, the latter is quite possible.

Moreover, I have to admit that the current Celica... is very exciting.

It was only after I broke away from the rough-and-tumble behavior that I used to get along with, not treating Celica as a bad friend or something else, but simply treating Celica as [the opposite sex], I realized that Celica, um, just , It’s also quite [inside].

Slightly childish, but definitely ask for my opinion before making a decision.Occasionally, he does some rather funny pranks, but when he should be serious, he is very sensible and well-behaved.

Oh my god, how did I start counting the good things about this mere Zerika!

In such a beautiful night and atmosphere, during the leisurely walk with the lovely Lika beside him, Lu Xi's idea of ​​constantly jumping in the face to test her at first has disappeared. On the contrary, the heartbeat rate is a little subtle speed up.

until--

"Wow!"

The bouncing walking posture is obviously not suitable for Celica who holds a drink in one hand.In order to balance the drink in the cup, she unconsciously swayed faster and faster, and finally, the center of gravity was completely out of balance, and the liquid in the cup drew a beautiful trace in the air—then, part of it was spilled on the two of them body.

Not caring about checking her own situation, Celica looked at Lu Xi in a panic, with a hint of crying in her voice:

"Yes, I'm sorry! I spilled my drink!"

Normally, that one would never apologize as obediently as it does now, and I can naturally say, 'Are you an idiot? ! 'The accusation resolved the embarrassing atmosphere at the scene.

However, now that she suddenly apologized seriously, with a look on her face that was about to cry, the atmosphere has become more subtle.

Looking at the slap-sized red stain on his chest, Lu Xi quickly comforted him:

"I'm standing by your side, so there's nothing wrong with it, but you, your skirt is almost soaked—woo!"

The more he said it, the more he felt something was wrong. When Lu Xi looked at the girl's current appearance again, his nose couldn't help but feel hot.

The cup of light yellow fruit juice spilled unreservedly on the girl's pure white dress, making the originally thin fabric more transparent.

The ticking juice combined with the looming beauty under the drenched fabric constitutes an astringent picture that is enough to make people's mind collapse.

"ah!!!!"

It was only then that she realized her gaffe, Celica screamed, and quickly squatted down to protect her chest, a faint glint appeared in her eyes:

"What, what can I do about this... Although no one will notice this place for a while, as long as the night market becomes more and more lively, my appearance will definitely be noticed by everyone—eh?"

"—Relax."

Gently rubbing Celica's hair, under the doubtful gaze of the latter, Lu Xi slowly raised her hand, showing a smile that made her extremely reassured:

"Don't forget what my specialty is. Miss Celica, may I take you back to your room directly?"

"Huh? Go back to the room—"

"Snapped."
