Weiwei replied Qianjie expressionlessly.

"...Forget it, whatever you want, but just don't come in and cause trouble."

With the joint efforts of the expressionless waitress Miss Weiwei and the passionate Master Qianjie, one dish after another with delicious taste and fragrance was served in front of Xia Yuan and the others.

"Wow, so rich?"

Fairy Ellie rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

I originally thought that what I would get would just be Qianjie's six equal portions of fried rice, but I didn't expect the dishes to be so rich.

"Qianjie, you..."

The fairy Ai Li looked at Qianjie, who was standing upright on the side with his arms around his chest and an apron on his neck, but the other party forcibly interrupted the nearly ten-page speech that the girl had organized in her mind to express her praise for Qianjie's behavior.

"Alicia, just sit down and eat your meal."

Seeing Qianjie trying to leave, Xia Yuan, who was sitting on the side, stretched out his hand to try to keep him.

"Um...Qianjie, do you want to sit down and eat with us?"

"No need."

Qianjie glanced at Xia Yuan and responded in a low voice.

But the fairy Ai Li had already flown in front of Qianjie and was pulling his mask to keep him.

"Qianjie, Xiao Xiayuan has already said that it is rare for you to prepare so many delicious foods for us.

Why don't you stay and eat together? It will be more lively if there are more people~ To express gratitude, the lovely fairy specially gave the seat next to Xiao Xia Yuan to you, Qian Jie~"

The fairy Ai Li made a gesture of invitation to Qianjie.

I just accidentally took off the mask on the other person's face...

"Brother Jie, what's the real face under the mask?!"

When Padofili saw the Jiemie mask in the fairy Ellie's hand, she quietly ran to a position where she could observe the other party and watched secretly. She had been curious about what was under Brother Jie's mask for a long time, but she never had the chance.

"Hey.....Brother Jie, is there still a mask underneath it?!"

Qianjie took the Jiemie mask that the fairy Ai Li had taken away. Unable to bear Ai Lixia's nagging, he quickly left the room, leaving behind only a slightly hoarse whisper.

“I’ve eaten…”

He prefers to be alone rather than being with others.

In the kitchen of [Houm Restaurant]... Qianjie is squatting outside at the moment, holding a box of fried rice in his hand. Even when eating, the Ao Mine Warrior will not easily take off the mask on his face.

Tread-tap-

The sound of crisp footsteps broke the silence. Qianjie subconsciously looked in the direction of the footsteps. When he saw that the person coming was Eden, he ran to the corner as fast as he could, leaving a deep back view to the other person.

"What's the matter?"

Qianjie's deep voice echoed in Eden's ears.

"Um...Qianjie, is there any wine here?"

Eden looked at Qianjie's back, who was squatting in the corner of the kitchen, and asked softly.

Qianjie slowly turned around and stretched out the chopsticks in his right hand to guide Eden, but the box in his left hand for cooking was empty.

"We don't have the famous wine you like, Eden, here. We only have ordinary beer."

"It doesn't matter....as long as there is wine, it will be enough."

For Eden, alcohol is an indispensable part of any party.

"Qianjie, you really won't come and join us?"

Eden carried several boxes of beer and once again politely invited Qianjie who was in the corner of the kitchen.

"Hmph...what are you doing in there? To listen to the noises you make when you're drunk, Eden?"

Qianjie waved his hand impatiently, asking Eden to leave quickly. When he saw Eden leaving, Qianjie quickly stood up from the corner, picked up the water cup on the side and drank it all.

He choked...

An hour later, all kinds of sounds in the box reached Qianjie's ears.

"Xia Yuan, can you perform that?"

"Ellie....which one is that?"

"That's it~"

Happiness is different for each person. He only felt the noise. Qianjie, who wanted to calm down outside the restaurant, unexpectedly discovered two people walking towards him from across the street.

Walking in front was a man wearing a white and black business suit with hair tied on both sides that looked like a corkscrew.

This is Qianjie’s first impression.

The person walking slightly behind was wearing the same maid style that Alicia often wore at parties.

The two were Bronya and Rita...

They are looking for Xia Yuan who was taken away by a strange cat creature.

"Hmm.....a white-collar worker and a maid."

Qianjie, who thought that he was incompatible with the two of them and didn't want to cause any trouble in his life, was just about to return to the restaurant when he was suddenly stopped by the other party.

"Please wait a moment, this...master?"

Bronya called out as she looked at the chef's hat on his head and the white apron tied around his waist.

"It seems...

“He’s the chef of this [Horum Restaurant]. Maybe if you eat here, he’ll give you a Horum doll.

"Wait, Bronya, now is not the time for you to think about this kind of thing. Your stupid subordinate was taken away by that strange cat creature and his whereabouts are unknown. How can he be tempted by a mere Homunculus doll?

"Bronya, you must be more sober now..."

Bronya slapped her cheeks with both hands, trying to sober herself up from the temptation of Horm. She had to distinguish the pros and cons of the current situation. At least... find the stupid subordinate first, and then buy the Horm set meal.

Bronya's words reached Qianjie's ears.

Qianjie couldn't help but stop, but he didn't turn around.

"Hmm? Is there anything wrong... If you want to eat, our store is closed." But Qianjie changed the subject and looked at the stores around him. In such cold weather, there were probably not many restaurants still open. "If you don't mind, there are some fried rice left in the kitchen. You can help yourself."

Qianjie exhaled a puff of hot air from under his mask, dispelling the severe cold around him.

Chapter 180 Bronya has grown up and can no longer be angry

"Hey, is the Hom set meal sold out?!"

No... No, now is not the time to think about these things. If the chef wearing a mask had been outside all the time, he might have witnessed the figure of the stupid subordinate.

With a try-it-out attitude, Bronya asked:

"Ahem... please wait a moment, Mr. Chef...

"I'm Bronya Zajcek, and this is Rita Rossweisse. Bronya wants to ask you about someone. Mr. Chef, have you seen the person in the photo?"

Bronya took a photo out of her front pocket.

The photo was kept very properly, and it can be seen that Bronya seemed to cherish it very much.

The photo shows a photo of Bronya and Xia Yuan.

When he heard that the other party was not coming to eat but to inquire about someone, Qianjie slowly turned around and carefully looked at the person in front of him and the person shown in the photo in the other party's hand.

When Rita, who was behind Bronya, saw Senjie wearing the mask, perhaps out of her body's instinctive reaction, she subconsciously put her hand on Bronya's shoulder, as if she wanted to pull Bronya back.

Rita was not frightened by the other person's appearance.

Instead, there is a terrifying aura of evil emanating from this masked man...

Although she was hidden by the other party, Rita was extremely sensitive to this dangerous aura because of her long-term companionship with Yulandel and secretly handling various difficult tasks.

"Bronya, please be careful. The person in front of you is very dangerous."

Rita secretly reminded Bronya.

Although Qianjie had restrained himself a lot, Rita still felt an aura from him that was several times stronger than that of Lady Yulandel.

No...that's not right, it's more like the murderous aura of someone who has been on the battlefield for a long time.

"Ok?"

Qianjie also noticed Rita's every move, but he didn't care about her little movements. It seemed that these two people were not as simple as their superficial identities. However, it had nothing to do with him, as long as they didn't disturb him.

Looking at the slightly familiar curly hair in the photo...

【Xia Yuan】

Since the identities of the two people in front of him are not as they seem and they possess certain martial arts skills, and since Xia Yuan is a guest of the Paradise of the Past Life, for certain safety reasons, he will not sit idly by.

A deep voice came from under the mask, Qianjie asked tentatively:

"Who are you in the photo?"

The eyes under the mask stared at Bronya in front of him. If the other party showed any hostility that he could notice, he would take action.

"He is my stupid subordinate..."

But Bronya did not remain alert to the masked man in front of her like Rita did. Instead, she took the initiative to tell Xia Yuan the specific time of his disappearance, hoping that if the other party thought of it... or saw something, he could provide her with some clues.

Bronya's intuition told her.

Anyone who works at [Houm's Restaurant] is definitely not a bad person, and he or she must love his or her job very much.

"Well...I've seen this person before."

After a moment's silence, he felt that the other party had no hostility, and a low voice came from under the Qianjie mask.

"Master Houmu, do you know where he is now?!"

Bronya looked a little excited and asked Qianjie quickly.

"It's inside the store, follow me in."

The other party's expression of urgent worry did not seem like it could be faked. After getting confirmation, Qianjie led Bronya and Rita into the restaurant.

"He is in the innermost box, just go in."

"Ms. Bronya, there may be traps around here. How about letting me investigate?"

Rita took the initiative to walk in front of Bronya.

“Alert (???)?!”

Thinking back to the previous agreement and competition, Bronya already understood what Rita was planning.

Although he didn't know where Raven was at this moment, his absence was undoubtedly a good thing for him. Now, Rita was the only competitor left to compete with him for the ownership of his stupid subordinate.

stare---

"Rita, don't think that Bronya doesn't know what you are thinking. Since it was Bronya who asked and found out where the stupid subordinate is, Bronya should be the one walking in front."

Rita lifted her skirt elegantly and kept a charming smile at all times.

"Ms. Bronya, Rita doesn't have any unreasonable thoughts. The final decision on our bet will still be made by Mr. Xia Yuan himself, right?"

Looking at the smile on Rita's face, Bronya felt a little bit of disgust and a little emotion. She knew that Rita had been following her all the way with bad intentions, and was definitely following her on purpose to snatch the person from her.

I could feel the slightly solemn atmosphere between the two of them.

"........"

Qianjie turned around and left silently. He had no interest in interfering in the other party's family affairs. Since he had already brought the person here, no matter what happened afterwards it had nothing to do with him.

In order to prevent the stupid subordinate from being abducted by Rita, Bronya took a deep breath and decided to show her best side and smile ever to the stupid subordinate, and went to the box to rescue Xia Yuan from the creature's mouth.

Bronya prepared herself mentally and came to the box at the end of the corridor.

Just as Bronya was about to push open the door, the slightly noisy sound in the room reached her ears.

"Hmm~ Everyone, Miss Pink Fairy is going to reveal Xiao Xia Yuan's past embarrassing stories."

"Ellie...what can I do?

"Hmm, someone seems to have forgotten everything that happened between him and his direct superior. It seems necessary to remind you, Xiao Xia Yuan."
