Chapter 461: The Cool Morning Dew Did Not Wet the Black Tuxedo

Perhaps because there were few guests staying at the hotel, the number of diners in the restaurant was also small. However, this did not affect the abundance of the breakfast spread.

Pasta, fried noodles, curry noodles, curry rice, baked tomatoes, fried bacon, scrambled eggs, crispy sausages, stir-fried broccoli, steamed pumpkin, tofu pudding, steamed buns, pan-fried dumplings, porridge, fried dough sticks, puffed rice, cakes, salads, nuts, and fresh fruits—the variety made the live-stream audience envious.

As a carnivore, Xiaoxiao always upheld the dignity of being at the top of the food chain. She piled her plate high with meat, eggs, dairy, and various high-quality carbs, along with some fruit fiber and delicate pastries.

"The first bite is for my fans~~"

Xiaoxiao used her phone to take close-up shots of the large plate of food, even shamelessly applying some filter effects to make the already mouth-watering breakfast look even more enticing.

"Huadu couldn't even get a boiled egg this morning, and here you are eating like a king."

"At first, I thought the 5,000 yuan per night at Lion Lake Castle was expensive, but after comparing it to the Colorful Holiday Resort Hotel, I really think Lion Lake Castle is a bargain."

"Key point, guys, did anyone notice that the cutlery in this restaurant seems to be made of pure silver?"

A comment in the chat suddenly caught everyone's attention.

Xiaoxiao looked down at her fork. "It really does seem to be pure silver. It's quite heavy."

Facing the feast on her plate, Xiaoxiao didn't hold back and started eating heartily, even deliberately smacking her lips, much to the annoyance of her live-stream audience.

Aside from the delicious food and exquisite cutlery, what satisfied Xiaoxiao the most was the service from the hotel staff.

Every time she wanted to change her plate, a staff member would warmly come over to replace it.

Every time she wanted more milk or a different drink, a staff member would proactively come to ask. It wasn't annoying but rather gave a sense of being constantly cared for. Each action felt like a gentle squeeze on her heart, and then they would leave without any fuss.

While Xiaoxiao was eating, two people strolled into the restaurant.

One was tall, and the other was short.

As soon as they entered, the tall young man smiled and waved at the restaurant staff, indicating that they didn't need to fuss over him. He then picked up a plate and confidently walked to the noodle section, grabbing a bowl of spicy beef noodles with clams in tin foil and sitting at a table one row ahead.

The tall young man's companion simply picked up some food, carrying a bowl of porridge to the table, and quietly complained:

"Can you ask Dabao to change things up a bit? I'm getting tired of eating the same things every day."

The tall young man rolled his eyes at his companion. "You say it. I wouldn't dare~ I always leave kitchen matters to him."

The shorter young man muttered, "If you, the boss, don't dare, then I certainly don't..."

...

Eating this every day?!

Hearing this, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but take a closer look at the two.

What kind of boss could afford to stay at a hotel of this price every day!

The entire Cream Road area had no investment opportunities or good vacant land. Apart from a small town and an amusement park, there was really nothing around.

To stay in a hotel long enough to get tired of the food, they must have been staying for at least half a month.

Even if the room rate was 4,500 yuan per day, half a month would amount to at least 67,500 yuan. It was like throwing money away.

It's really scary that people are rich and willful! !

Out of curiosity, Xiaoxiao stood up and, while heading to the fruit section to grab some jackfruit, starfruit, and oranges for herself, she sneakily glanced at the two people's plates.

One person had noodles, while the other had plain porridge with pickles and a steamed bun—completely ordinary, home-style breakfast fare.

The vibe was completely different from her own over-the-top, indulgent feast, as if she were a country bumpkin stuffing herself to the point of wishing she had two stomachs. It was a totally different approach!

But so what if she was overdoing it...

At such an expensive hotel, with such a fantastic restaurant and food, not eating her fill would be a disservice to herself!!

Xiaoxiao looked down at her plate, piled high with fresh fruit. If it weren't for fear of making a bad impression, she would have secretly loosened her belt to make room for more in her stomach.

This breakfast took Xiaoxiao about three rounds and nearly 40 minutes to finish.

8:40 a.m.

Xiaoxiao, her stomach bulging, sat in her seat, burping contentedly. She pulled out her phone to contact her butler and inquire about the arrangements for visiting the amusement park later.

Meanwhile, in the Ice Demon Mountain Water World of the Magic World theme park, Huadu leaned weakly against the iron railings separating the queuing crowds, looking utterly miserable. He spoke in a drained voice:

"Honestly, guys, take my advice: never go on intense amusement park rides right after eating."

"The Wizard Zombie Mummy Chaos Battle is fun, but since I went on it right after breakfast, my stomach is really upset now."

"I'm seriously worried I might throw up on the Ice Demon Mountain Water World giant slide later."

As he spoke, Huadu raised his phone high, panning it around to show the surroundings.

The entire Ice Demon Mountain Water World venue, both indoors and outdoors, was packed with people. Even if he wanted to quit halfway and find a place to rest, it would be nearly impossible. He felt like he had no choice but to tough it out, as if he were being forced to walk a path of no return.

"It's only 8:42 a.m., but the Magic World theme park app shows that the shortest wait time for any ride is 40 minutes, and the longest is nearly 1 hour and 50 minutes—basically two hours."

"There are just too many people..."

9:00 a.m.

Huadu continued to wait in line, utterly exhausted.

Xiaoxiao, her little belly full, stood up from her seat, satisfied.

Since the hotel's amusement facilities were quite intense, her butler thoughtfully suggested that she return to her room to rest for an hour or an hour and a half, let her food settle, enjoy the post-meal ambiance of the luxury hotel, and then head out to have fun.

9:30 a.m.

Huadu exited the Ice Demon Mountain Water World giant slide area and hurried straight to the men's restroom in the park, only to get back in line afterward.

Xiaoxiao opened the window in her room and sat in a deep blue, plush sofa, leaning against a cushion with a cup of coffee in hand. She leisurely listened to classical symphonies playing through the surround sound system, savoring the peaceful atmosphere of passing time.

The autumn morning was crisp, and the sunlight was gradually brightening from the dawn. The cool morning dew didn't wet the black tuxedo but gently settled on the cream-colored Lion Lake Castle, as if nature were using a small spray bottle to wake up the entire park.

The chill that had accumulated overnight slowly dissipated under the warmth of the sun. The dew on the park's lawn evaporated drop by drop into the air, making the air feel moist and refreshing when inhaled.

In the garden not far away, a few plump little rabbits darted back and forth through the grass. From time to time, a chipmunk dropped a nut shell from a tree, and the clip-clop of a horse-drawn carriage echoed on the cobblestone path of Squirrel Carriage Road, accompanied by the sound of wheels rolling over the ground. Together, they created a strangely harmonious beauty.

"This is exactly the life I want..."

"It's so nice, no online classes! I can just sit here and daydream."

"If only I had a book in my hands, it would be perfect!"

"Yesterday, I thought it was ridiculous that this room didn't have a TV, but now I genuinely feel like not having one might actually be great!"

"After seeing the crowds over at Huadu's side and then looking at Xiaoxiao's hotel, not only do my eyes feel refreshed, but my soul feels purified too."

"Honestly, I've been following Xiaoxiao's live stream since she checked into Lion Lake Castle Hotel yesterday. Aside from the price, there's really nothing wrong with this hotel."

"The only downside is that I'm too poor... sob sob!"

People love watching these travel vlogs and live streams because, due to time, space, or financial constraints, they can't travel themselves. So, they rely on the主播's (streamer's) eyes to see the world.

And the scenery before them completely resonated with their longing for a beautiful life. The live-stream audience was captivated by the view.

Seeing the skyrocketing number of viewers in her live stream, Xiaoxiao was so excited that she almost burped up her breakfast.

Some fans even directly asked Xiaoxiao in the chat if she could open another split-screen live stream, fixing one phone by the window so they could work or study while keeping the screen on this view, creating a 24-hour immersive cloud experience of Lion Lake Castle Hotel.

Unfortunately, Huadu and Xiaoxiao's current equipment could only handle two split-screen live streams simultaneously. They didn't have an extra phone for a third screen, so Xiaoxiao decided to stay in the room a bit longer, being a fan-friendly streamer and keeping her audience happy.

10:00 a.m.

Huadu stood in line for the giant funnel water slide, looking utterly defeated.

Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa, holding a magazine, leisurely basking in the sun.

10:30 a.m.

Huadu continued to stand in line for the giant funnel water slide, still looking utterly defeated.

Gandalf Xiaoxiao Medivan had already donned her star-and-moon wizard robe and was quite satisfied as she looked at herself in the mirror.

Although the wizard robe was long, its design and fabric quality were excellent, so wearing it didn't feel strange or out of place. Instead, it felt cool.

"Guys, even though it's a bit cringe, this robe is really comfortable—super soft and lightweight."

"Although I have no idea why the hotel requires us to wear this kind of outfit to the amusement park, it does add a sense of ceremony."

"Right now, I feel like I am the Grand Astrologer Wizard himself!"

"Let's go, guys! We're off to explore the amusement park at Lion Lake Castle!!"

After putting on the robe's hood and taking a few handsome selfies, Xiaoxiao walked briskly out of her room, closed the door, and took the starry elevator in the hallway down to the first floor.

By this point, the viewership ratio between Xiaoxiao's live stream and Huadu's had reached 6:4.

Although the Magic World theme park was fun, the frequent hour-long wait times had driven many fans away, causing them to switch over to Xiaoxiao's travel live stream.

Outside the Astrology-themed tower, a horse-drawn carriage was already waiting.

Seeing Xiaoxiao come out of the tower, the carriage staff warmly opened the carriage door for her and asked, "Sir, are you heading to the amusement park?"

"Yes!" Xiaoxiao responded with equal enthusiasm.

The carriage staff closed the door, made sure Xiaoxiao was seated comfortably, and then cheerfully said, "Alright, sir, we're off!"

...

The autumn air was crisp and refreshing!

Perhaps because Cream Road was far from the city and had no heavy industry or factories nearby, the sky here was exceptionally clear and blue, pure and cloudless. The sun hung high above, casting bright, warm rays.

Under the cream-colored castle walls, vines intertwined, their lush leaves gleaming with a rich, oily green under the sunlight. The soft lawn swayed gently in the breeze. Not far away, butterflies fluttered up and down over the flowers, and a few bees buzzed around, creating a serene, warm, and lively atmosphere.

"I thought the view inside the room was beautiful, but the scenery outside is even more stunning!"

"This lawn, this sunlight—I'm in love!"

"Let me ask, if I come here in winter, will it be the off-season, and will the room rates be cheaper?"

"Hey, wake up! Once winter comes and the snow covers everything, with the lake frozen, it'll be a winter wonderland. Not only won't it be cheaper, but they might even raise the prices...!"

Xiaoxiao didn't know that her live stream had already made it to the trending section of "Big Peach Live."

Many people had heard that a streamer was doing a dual live stream of the Magic World theme park and Lion Lake Castle Resort Hotel, and that Lion Lake Castle also had an amusement park. They flocked to her stream to join in the fun, and the number of online viewers quickly soared to 140,000.

"Are we heading toward the Magic World theme park now?"

Xiaoxiao looked out of the carriage curiously. Lion Lake Castle Hotel was located in the southwest part of the Cream Road park, and after leaving the castle gates, the carriage had been moving northeast.

Gradually, a black tower spire appeared in the distance.

Xiaoxiao looked at the black tower. If she remembered correctly, that black structure should be the spire of the Wizard Castle, the iconic building of the Magic World theme park.

"Yes, sir," the carriage staff replied warmly.

"Since our hotel is quite large, to avoid disturbing other guests, our boss placed the amusement area near the Magic World theme park."

"After all, the two amusement parks are right next to each other, so the laughter and joy are connected."

"Let's all have fun together!"

As they spoke,

Xiaoxiao noticed two people in robes riding small horses, slowly making their way forward on the white cobblestone path by the roadside. Judging by their direction, they seemed to be heading to the hotel's amusement park as well.

The two figures, one tall and one short,

One of them had legs so long they almost touched the ground.

It was the same guy Xiaoxiao had seen bullying the little black horse on her first day in the park!
