Chapter 1018: Take Yuan Shang to the cafe to wash dishes!
Shao Yun touched his chin, and the image of Fu Nina on the railing over there flashed through his mind.
"Do you think she's filming with Xavier right now? I wonder what's going on with Gunrairie Films."
Ying imagined what it would be like for Funina to be a great director and couldn't help laughing.
"That's possible, but I think she's more likely to be sleeping right now."
When Shao Yun heard this, he immediately nodded in agreement.
"That's more her style. Sleeping in till dawn, getting up and having macaroni with double the tomato sauce, then curling up in bed and reading a novel..."
He paused and suddenly felt, why does it feel a little familiar?
"Why do I feel like she's similar to Sitrali? They're both the type who can live a carefree life."
Shao Yun waved his hand, not wanting to worry about Fu Nina's schedule anymore, and asked, "So what should we do first?"
Paimon immediately rubbed his belly and said with a grin, "Need I ask? Of course, we're going to Luze Cafe for breakfast!"
“When we first came to Fontaine, I loved having breakfast there!”
She smacked her lips, as if she had already tasted it: "The coffee with milk and sugar is sweet, not bitter at all, so delicious!"
"And there are freshly baked cupcakes, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!"
Shao Yun couldn't help laughing as he listened to her description.
"Since Paimon likes sweet things so much, I think you would like the drink 'bitter water'."
"Bitter water?" Paimon covered his mouth subconsciously.
"What is that? The name sounds so bitter! I don't like it!"
Shao Yun ruffled her hair and explained, "'Bitter water' is actually sweet. It's a very famous drink in Nata. Although the name contains 'bitter', it's actually sweet."
"Aren't we going to Nata in a dozen days? I'll treat you to a big drink and order you a big barbecue."
"Really?!" Paimon's eyes lit up instantly, and all his resistance to "bitter water" disappeared.
"Then I want to try it! And Nata's specialty kebabs! I want the biggest ones!"
Shao Yun was amused by her greedy look. He pinched her round face and teased, "Okay, I'll arrange everything for you. But now, let's take care of breakfast first."
……
Afterwards, Shao Yun and his family took Kavi to the lifting platform of Hailu Port.
The metal structure platform slowly rises, and the sea breeze blows in from all directions, carrying the unique salty and humid smell of the port.
When the platform reached the top floor, several people walked towards the platform of the track patrol boat, waiting for the arrival of the next track patrol boat.
There were few passengers sitting on the benches on the platform, and in the distance the mechanical gears made a regular turning sound.
Ying held Xi in her arms, quietly moved closer to Shao Yun, and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "By the way, there is something I haven't asked..."
"Why did you say Funina was a boiler operator for a 'coal-fired power plant'? I was puzzled for a long time back then."
Shao Yun lowered his voice and responded, "Isn't this simple? Think about it, in order to save Fengdan, didn't she have to continue judging, accumulating 'Law Compensation Chaotic Energy', and finally destroying the Water God's throne?"
He paused and gave an example.
"Isn't the generation of legal compensation energy similar to burning coal in a boiler to generate electricity? The Cardinals of the Decree use the people's collective belief in 'justice' as fuel. The more attention the trial attracts, the more vigorously this 'fuel' burns, and the 'electricity' naturally becomes sufficient."
"And the trial of you, a renowned adventurer, is like throwing a piece of high-quality coal into a boiler. The fire is bound to be intense. Everyone in Fontaine is watching, so the power of faith must surge."
After hearing this abstract metaphor of "burning coal to generate electricity", Ying was stunned at first, then suddenly realized and couldn't help laughing softly.
"Oh... I see. Your metaphor is still so abstract, but... it seems to be true."
Shao Yun reached out and ruffled her hair, then changed the subject.
"Okay, stop dwelling on these old things. As usual, when we get to Fontaine Court, you and your brother will take Paimeng, Shenhe, and Xi out for a stroll."
"I'm taking Kavi to do some work."
"Got it." Ying leaned her head on his shoulder and acted coquettishly, "Then don't be too tired. Finish your work early and come find us."
……
Afterwards, the family took a rail patrol boat to Fontaine.
Of course, this time, I didn't meet Lini and the others...
When the ship entered the Ting District Shipping Center, Paimon had been leaning against the window watching all the way, his eyes sparkling.
Leaving the shipping center and stepping onto the square of the Vasari Corridor, Paimon looked at the familiar scenery around him.
"Fontaine is still the same! The fountain is still beautiful, and even the pigeons in the square are as fat as the last time I saw them! Nothing has changed at all."
Shao Yun took out his pocket watch and looked at it, then said to everyone, "It's getting late, let's go to Luze Cafe for breakfast first."
"Kavi and I are going to take care of some things. When we're done, if it's early, we'll meet you at the cafe. If it takes too long, we can contact you through Catherine from the Adventurer's Guild?"
"it is good!"
Paimon responded immediately, proudly shaking the small treasury hidden in his boots to show off his wealth.
"Then I'll use my little treasury to fill everyone's stomachs!"
Upon hearing this, Shao Yun deliberately raised his eyebrows and said teasingly, "Oh? Really? I was thinking of paying for it myself. Since Paimeng is so rich, I won't reimburse you for this breakfast."
"Huh!" Paimeng was startled and waved his hands quickly, saying in a panic: "Then, just pretend I didn't say anything! I was just joking!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she flew behind Shao Yun and rubbed her head against his back, her voice so sweet that it was sickening.
"Hehe, Shao Yun is the best, you pay for it, you pay for it~"
Ying looked at Paimeng's antics, helplessly held her forehead, and said with a smile: "Alright, alright, stop it. I'll pay for this meal, Paimeng, just be reserved."
Shao Yun turned to look at Ying and asked with some concern, "Do you have enough money on you? If not, I can give you some first."
"That's enough. You're responsible for all the usual expenses. Even without the money from the International Chamber of Commerce and Ningguang, I haven't spent much of the commission fees I saved."
Ying winked at Shao Yun again, with a hint of pride in her tone.
"I can't let you pay for everything by yourself, right? We are a family, right?"
Shao Yun shrugged. Seeing her confidence, he stopped worrying about her. However, he couldn't help but tease her.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. But if you really don't have enough money, don't count on me. I'll pawn your brother off to the cafe and have him wash dishes to pay off the debt."
"Hey! I can hear you!" Kong, who was leaning over Shen He to look at the baby, suddenly turned his head and complained helplessly.
"Why me? If anyone needs to mortgage someone, it should be Yuan Shang who's washing dishes!"
……
Yuan Shang, who was far away in some unknown corner, sensed something, sneezed loudly, rubbed his nose and muttered.
"Ah? Is it the Princess or the Prince who's talking about me?
……
Ying held her stomach and laughed non-stop. Shen He couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. Even Xi in his arms seemed to be amused and let out a "yeah" laugh.
Shao Yun looked at the lively scene, shook his head and said with a smile: "Okay, I won't waste your time anymore, go quickly."
"Let's go!" Paimon rushed out first, "Luze Cafe, here I come!"
Ying and Kong hurried to catch up, while Shen He followed slowly behind holding Xi.
Shao Yun stood there, watching their backs disappear around the corner, then turned to Kawei and said, "It's time for us to get going and finish this as soon as possible."
Kavi nodded and said, "The way your family gets along is really lively."
"You'll get used to it." Shao Yun smiled and patted his shoulder. "Let's go, our next stop is Mo Mang Palace."
……
After separating from Ying and the others in the square of the Vasari Corridor, Shao Yun took Kavi and walked towards the Momang Palace.
Standing in front of Momang Palace, looking at the familiar "palace", Shao Yun put his hands on his hips and turned to Kavi beside him and said:
"Now, I'm going to go say hello to someone and take care of some things."
"You should also take this opportunity to go and catch up with your mother. I remember telling you that she works in Momang Palace, right?"
When Kavi heard this, he was obviously stunned for a moment, with a look of surprise on his face:
"Ah? Now? Shouldn't we take care of work matters first? Like the supplier of raw materials..."
Shao Yun shrugged nonchalantly, his tone relaxed: "Why rush? Just take your time with the work. It's a rare trip to Fontaine, you can't just focus on work all the time."
As he spoke, he patted Kavi's shoulder again and hinted, "The last time you mentioned you to me and your mother, she couldn't hide the longing in her eyes."
"Go ahead, go now. Your mission is to have a good chat with her and catch up on the past. Put your work aside for now. It won't hurt to have a while."
Looking at Shao Yun's expression of "no room for negotiation", Kavi suddenly felt a warm feeling in his heart.
He has been an architect for so long and has worked with countless clients, but Shao Yun is the first one who regards "going to accompany his family" as a "task".
Where can I find such a good client?
"Well... okay." Kavi sniffed and quickly nodded in agreement, with a hint of gratitude in his voice that was hard to conceal.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Shao Yun."
"What are you thanking me for?" Shao Yun smiled and waved his hand, "Go quickly."
