The other side.
Lin Shuang woke up earlier than Acheron.
As soon as she turned on her phone, she saw that Tingyun had sent her a message.
She said that if Lin Shuang was free, she wanted her to go over and meet the leaders of the Sky-Faring Commission.
Lin Shuang thought about it and realized that the current leader of the Sky-Faring Commission was Yukong.
I guess she wants to ask about some secret matters of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus.
After all, if you think about it carefully, it is indeed serious that the people who received the secret teachings of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus were able to arrange manpower to attack Tingyun's Starskiff.
I guess the Sky-Faring Commission is also scared.
Thinking of this, Lin Shuang replied with a message:
[I understand. I'll come find you later.]
The message was sent, and before Lin Shuang put down the phone, the notification tone of Tingyun's reply sounded.
[It seems that you had a good rest yesterday. I wonder what kind of food you like. I will arrange it for you now.]
Lin Shuang was stunned when she saw the immediate response. She glanced at the time and realized it was almost noon.
Could it be that Tingyun had been waiting for her to reply?
[Salty is fine]
[Okay, please wait a moment, benefactor]
Lin Shuang put down her phone and climbed out of the bed, feeling relaxed.
After traveling for more than half a month, she had given herself a massage yesterday and felt really good when she woke up today.
Certainly.
Having massaged herself as well, Lin Shuang also experienced the blushing body reaction.
She couldn't help but spit inwardly.
Just looking at the techniques in her mind, this thing seemed to be just exquisite care methods and massage techniques.
Who knew that it would be so comfortable after it really fell on her body...?
This skill is indeed restricted.
Even an Emanator as powerful as Acheron was twitching all over after being pressed by her, and she herself could not hold it in at all, so how could an ordinary person suffer?
It was because Acheron had an easy-going personality; otherwise, Lin Shuang would be worried that Acheron would chop her into thirty-two pieces with one blow.
But if she used it on herself...
That was a very useful skill.
While Lin Shuang was putting on her clothes, she was also thinking about some weird things in her mind.
After all, it's just self-satisfaction; who hasn't done it?
Although this system didn't provide anything serious, it was still somewhat useful in some non-serious areas.
She got dressed and left the room.
Lin Shuang knocked gently on Acheron's door but found no response.
She didn't need to open the door to know that Acheron was probably still asleep.
After all, under normal circumstances, let alone knocking on the door, just the moment Lin Shuang pushed the door open and walked toward the room would be enough for Acheron to discover her hundreds of times.
But this also made Lin Shuang a little confused.
Why was Acheron sleeping so deeply?
"…That's not right. I also did it to myself yesterday, but I didn't sleep this deep. How could Acheron sleep so deeply? How long has it been since she last slept?"
Lin Shuang scratched her head in confusion.
Acheron didn't want to say much about the topic of sleeping, and she didn't ask much.
Could it be that she tended to sleep too deeply and deliberately slept less?
Lin Shuang couldn't help but think of this reason.
Standing at Acheron's door and shaking her head, Lin Shuang turned around and left, washing up briefly.
Just when she had finished tidying up her hair and combing it smooth—
As if it was predicted in advance, a clear and pleasant doorbell rang at the door of the room.
Lin Shuang tied her long hair into a ponytail with a hairband and walked over, pushing open the door.
Tingyun, with delicate makeup and meticulous clothes, appeared outside the door holding a paper bag and smiling.
Tingyun was holding the handle with both hands, lifting the paper bag, and shaking it in front of Lin Shuang to let the aroma of the food spread.
"Good afternoon, benefactor. I brought some food for you and Miss Acheron. Would you like to try it?"
"It smells so good, thank you, please come in."
Lin Shuang sniffed the aroma that wafted over, and the salty and fragrant taste was quite similar to the taste in her memory.
Then she stepped aside, made a gesture of invitation, and invited Tingyun, who had a smile on her face, into the room.
Watching Tingyun put the food on the coffee table, Lin Shuang followed behind, looking at Miss Tingyun's big tail, and asked:
"It's just a little lunch. You could have just asked the hotel to send it over. How could I trouble you to make a personal trip here?"
Tingyun's tail swayed a few times, and then she gently swung the folding fan open, covering half of her face.
She purposely let Lin Shuang see only those eyes that could speak.
"Oh, that's right, benefactor, you are very considerate. However, I just wanted to meet you earlier. If you don't like me, I will find someone else instead."
"…"
I can't bear it; I really can't bear it, especially Tingyun's eyes. Just one glance at her seemed to contain all kinds of charm.
Tingyun found Lin Shuang speechless and thought she was adorable. She quickly came over, pulled her to the table, and started introducing the food she brought.
"This is Songlotus Cake. You'll smile when you take a bite. Don't be scared, benefactor~ And this is Signature Chili Oil Beef Offal Stew. There are also some buns of various flavors as the staple food."
"Because I don't know whether you and Miss Acheron like to drink, I brought some Five Grains Jade Elixir, Scalegorge Spring Water, and a few bottles of just water. If you don't like any of them, I also prepared some tea leaves, so I can make you a cup of tea to relieve the greasy feeling."
As Tingyun spoke, she took out these steaming delicacies, which looked like they had just come out of the oven, from the lunch boxes one by one.
When Lin Shuang saw these very familiar foods, she revealed a complicated smile.
"Tingyun, these are all the foods on the Xianzhou, right?"
"Oh, you recognized it so quickly, benefactor? Although there are countless delicacies in the universe, if you ask me which ones I like best, I think they are the delicacies of our Xianzhou. Today I especially recommend some of my favorites to you, benefactor, and I hope you like them."
It was hard to say whether this was truly the taste that Tingyun liked.
But it was obvious that they basically all conformed to Lin Shuang's taste preferences.
She had gone shopping and eaten along the way yesterday, and the bill was charged to Whistling Flames Merchant Guild. She assumed that Tingyun had already figured out her and Acheron's tastes.
Lin Shuang picked up a bun that was oozing with oil and bit into it without hesitation.
The taste of fresh meat bloomed in her taste buds. This long-lost taste of homemade food was very satisfying.
There was no need for an answer. Just by looking at Lin Shuang's satisfied expression, Tingyun knew that the food she brought was very much to her liking.
Miss Acheron was not seen in the room, nor was she seen leaving the hotel. She might still be resting.
Tingyun did not disturb Lin Shuang while she was eating but quietly stepped aside and waited with a smile.
While looking around the room, Tingyun noticed some materials piled up in the corner.
Tingyun was naturally familiar with these raw materials. Many of the raw materials used in the ointment she used to care for her tail were also included in them.
The other things were basically used for hair care and skin care.
Tingyun's heart moved. Did her benefactor have this kind of skill?
Yesterday, her benefactor had looked at her tail very obviously. She guessed that Lin Shuang really liked furry things.
Should she let her benefactor touch her tail on the pretext of taking care of her hair?
