Lin Yuan had already woken up and gotten dressed.
It was New Year’s, and Lin Yuan put on spirit qi clothes with red accessories that he rarely wore.
Occasionally, Lin Yuan wore brightly colored clothes. They made him look younger.
Genius, which was in Lin Yuan’s arms, was still rolling around lazily. When Lin Yuan dressed Genius in a red armor set that Wen Yu had made, Genius immediately perked up. It wagged its three tails and said in a child-like voice, “Yuan, do I look good in these clothes?”
Lin Yuan reached out his hand and affectionately pinched Genius’ small nose.
“You little brat. You’ve already asked this question ten times. Of course, you look good!”
The idea to make this armor had sparked in Wen Yu’s mind out of nowhere. It suited Genius well.
Since Wen Yu had never seen Genius wearing any clothes, she gave the red armor to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan had decided to dress Genius in it on a whim. It was only then that he realized how much Genius liked wearing such clothes.
Genius reveled in Lin Yuan’s praise.
Although it had already heard Lin Yuan’s reply more than ten times, Genius was still waving its tail around just as happily.
Lin Yuan smiled and asked, “How about I ask Wen Yu to make more clothes for you?”
Genius jumped into Lin Yuan’s arms in delight.
Lin Yuan stoked Genius’ head and thought to himself about how sensible Genius still was.
However, the Lin Yuan of today was different from the Lin Yuan, who used to struggle to make a living in the Xia Region.
“Genius, let me know what you like from now on. We can afford many things now,” said Lin Yuan to Genius seriously.
Lin Yuan heard knocking on the door of the loft and opened it to see Cai Cha standing there.
Cai Cha bowed to Lin Yuan and said, “Young Lord, the Moon Empress is calling on you to dine in the inner palace. Xicha went to call the Little Cold Moon Envoy.”
It took a moment for Lin Yuan to respond to the words ‘Little Cold Moon Envoy’, but he soon realized Cai Cha was referring to Chu Ci.
Lin Yuan nodded and replied, “Let’s go to the inner palace together.”
Lin Yuan could not help but think, Now that I have the Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls, the space in the Spirit Lock spatial zone that I was using to nurture the Flower Brocade Pearls is now empty. What should I do with the empty space?
Every inch of the Spirit Lock spatial zone was intended for Lin Yuan to store and accumulate resources.
Hence, Lin Yuan needed to carefully think about what was the best way to use the Spirit Lock spatial zone. It was imperative that he did not make rash decisions.
When they arrived at the entrance of the inner palace, Cai Cha bowed and said, “Young Lord, the Moon Empress personally woke up at the crack of dawn to cook today’s breakfast.”
Lin Yuan suddenly thought that he should make something for his Master during New Year’s.
Once they were done eating, Lin Yuan said to the Moon Empress before he left, “Master, you don’t need to cook during New Year’s. I’ll prepare the food in the afternoon.”
Initially, the Moon Empress thought that Lin Yuan wanted to take something from Leaning Moon Mountain. She was about to tell him that the Radiant Moon Palace had everything and that he did not need to prepare anything when she heard the rest of what he had to say.
A warm smile blossomed on the Moon Empress’ face.
She gazed at Lin Yuan with adoration and said, “Okay.”
Liu Jie was decently confident in his cooking skills. Although he was not as skilled as Liu Jie, Lin Yuan had eaten his own food before and found it acceptable.
It was just that after Lin Yuan met Liu Jie, he no longer had the opportunity to cook.
Lin Yuan contacted Ostrich Logistics on the way back to the mansion. He tasked them to give away the elemental pearls from last night’s group welfare auction and the private trades’ ones.
Once he was done liaising with Ostrich Logistics, Lin Yuan could tell that Chu Ci was very nervous.
Instead of saying something, Lin Yuan only raised an eyebrow.
They were about to arrive at the Return from Faraway Mansion that was on the outskirts of the Royal Capital.
The people who were anxious to see Chu Ci had to be far more nervous than her.
Lin Yuan saw Wen Yu and another young girl with purplish-red hair at the mansion entrance.
When Wen Yu saw Lin Yuan, she exclaimed, “Young Master.”
The purplish-red-haired girl waved at Lin Yuan and yelled, “Mister Deep Mountain Elder Lin, I’m back to being your dedicated courier again!”
Lin Yuan knew that Ah Neng had been busy participating in the Guild Alliance’s S Tournament.
“Ah Neng, how did you do at the S Tournament?” asked Lin Yuan.
Ah Neng’s eyes shone as she replied, “I ended many people’s misery with a rain of bullets. I’m just a substitute this year, so I don’t need to enter the competition anymore. But, I’ll be able to be in the main team in next year’s S Tournament!”
Ah Neng started waving her fists around as though she was cheering herself on.
Lin Yuan laughed and cheered Ah Neng on.
Ah Neng had not been a courier for some time.
The current Ah Neng was no longer the same as the careless child she used to be.
After Ah Neng left, Lin Yuan saw that Chu Ci and Wen Yu had linked arms.
Chu Ci had just been acquainted with Wen Yu in the video call, but they were already so close despite having only just met.
Was this why they said that women only needed one second to become friends with each other?
Wen Yu could finally lay her worries to rest after she saw Lin Yuan.
During Lin Yuan’s absence, Wen Yu had been tending to every aspect of the mansion, especially when Liu Jie and Zhou Luo had been in a coma.
Nothing special had taken place in the mansion during this time.
The Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce’s old rival, the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce, had started trying to overcome the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce. Thus, Listen needed to constantly handle this issue.
Only a few surprise guests had turned up at the mansion recently.
“Young Master, the main descendant of Wind Mist City’s Gao family, Gao Feng came looking for you a week ago. You were still in a coma, and I told him that you had left the mansion on business. Every few days, the phone that you gave to the Mother of Bloodbath would ring with messages from Gao Feng. He must have some urgent matter to see you about.”
Lin Yuan cocked an eyebrow.
Gao Feng sure is anxious to see me. I wonder what urgent matter he has to see me about.
Coincidentally, Lin Yuan also intended to ask Gao Feng for help after New Year’s.
He wanted to obtain some Angelfish of Bliss through Gao Feng.
