Fireworks: I really want to grab Xi Yao and spank her little bottom hard!

This is the World's End Tavern, a gathering place for the Masked Fool.

It is already rife with all sorts of lies, some clumsy, some clever.

So sometimes when you tell the truth, nobody believes you.

So she simply told the truth, so they would think she was just bluffing.

As it turned out, Xi Yao's guess was correct.

……

Silence descended silently.

The tavern fell silent for a moment.

A moment later, another burst of laughter erupted.

Hahahaha!

"Many claim to be the Envoy of Pleasure, but you're the first to dare call yourself the Number One Envoy! Hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha, she doesn't actually think she blew up the company on her own, does she?"

"Speaking of which, wasn't our first messenger that bug? Although it only lived for a few days... or maybe just an hour? It doesn't matter! Hahahaha!"

"Don't talk nonsense! Isn't our First Envoy Lord Akivili? Oh, to correct you, it's... Hakivili! This is something even the God of Fun himself confirmed~ Hahahahaha!"

"Big Sister Xi Yao, I'm here to greet you!"

Faced with this sarcastic greeting, Xi Yao calmly nodded and gave the masked fool a look that said, "I'm optimistic about you."

"You're not bad, kid. I'll put in a good word for you with Lezi Shen sometime."

……

Hahahaha!

"Thank you so much, Sister Xi Yao! Pfft~ Hahahahahaha!"

Ignoring the laughter around her, Xi Yao smiled slightly and found a table close to the bar to sit down.

Fireworks had already lit the drinks and sat down opposite Xiyao.

She had taken off her shoes at some point, crossed her legs, and swung her small, white feet.

After taking a sip of her drink, Hanabi asked with a smile:

"How is it?"

"How does it feel to be at the tavern?"

"Not bad, pretty much what I expected."

"If that's the case, then how about five billion?"

Xi Yao's lips curled slightly as she looked at the fireworks with a smile:

"Since when has the Masked Fool started keeping his promises?"

Hanabi's smile froze.

No hehe.jpg

"Pfft~"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Just kidding.

"Hanabi-neechan, your expression is so funny~"

"That five billion, of course, is wiped clean!"

"Little Xi Yao, I never lie~"

"Hehe~"

Hanabi:......

Looking at Xi Yao's grinning face, Hua Huo suddenly felt a surge of resentment.

Wow!

I really want to grab her, hold her down, and then spank her little bottom hard!

Ah ah ah ah ah!

Of course, she could only dream about it.

If they really started fighting, she would most likely be the one getting spanked.

She didn't want to make things difficult for herself.

She glared at Xi Yao with a disgruntled expression, then glanced around before seemingly thinking of something interesting. A faint smile returned to her charming face.

She covered her mouth with one hand, smiled sweetly, and leaned close to Xi Yao, whispering:

Just a heads up.

"It's understandable that newcomers might find it difficult to adjust to the atmosphere of a tavern when it's their first time there."

"And some people here love to target newcomers."

"Don't let yourself become a laughing stock."

Xi Yao glanced to the side out of the corner of her eye.

Indeed, many people around us kept glancing in our direction, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

She didn't seem to care, but instead rested her chin on her hand, smiling as she looked at Hanabi and asked:

"Did I hear that right?"

"Firework-neechan, are you... worried about me?"

"Shouldn't you be with the others, trying to find ways to make me laugh?"

"Tch, who wants to team up with them!"

"My script doesn't need anyone else to tell me what to do."

Hanabi turned her head away with a haughty expression, but she quickly turned back with a mischievous grin, her beautiful eyes, glowing with a faint pink light, fixed on Yuyao.

"However, if you really become a source of amusement."

"I, Hanabi-sama, won't waste this opportunity to laugh at you mercilessly~"

Hehe~

Xi Yao shook her head without changing her expression.

"What a pity, Hanabi-neechan, you probably won't have that chance~"

Hanabi smiled and didn't dwell on the topic any further.

She pointed to the bar not far away and said:

"Wouldn't you like a drink?"

"Coming to a tavern without drinking would be a lot less fun."

Makes sense!

If you come to a tavern and don't drink, what's the difference between that and coming to Bengtie and not persecuting Old Yang?

Um... okay, actually there is a little bit.

You can come to the tavern without drinking, but you absolutely must persecute Old Yang when you come to Bengtie!

Hehe~

Xi Yao slowly walked to the bar.

The bartender here is a mature, charming, and stunningly beautiful red-haired woman.

Upon seeing Xi Yao, he smiled kindly and said:

"Miss Xi Yao, hello. My name is Dai Fu. Welcome to the tavern."

"As a gift for the newlyweds, you can order a free drink."

Oh?

interesting!

I never expected the tavern to offer benefits for newcomers!

then……

Looking at the dazzling array of menu items, Xi Yao fell into deep thought.

She didn't know any of them...

炒！

I've been so busy being a beast of burden that I've never even been to a bar!

What kinds of alcohol are these?

At this moment, Xi Yao was like a rural child who had been studying hard, who suddenly came to the city to go to university and went to a bar with her roommate, feeling lost and confused.

Seeing that she seemed a little embarrassed, Dave smiled and asked:

"Why don't you tell me your requirements, and I'll help you choose?"

"Thank you so much, sis!"

Xi Yao breathed a silent sigh of relief, feeling much more favorably disposed towards the bartender.

This older sister seems to be just as kind and understanding as Xiao Xiyao.

Subtly glancing around, Xi Yao's lips curled into a slight smile.

She whispered in Dave's ear:

"Please give me a drink that smells strong but isn't actually very strong."

"Thanks."

After hearing this request, Dave narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.

She then glanced at the masked fools around her and smiled meaningfully.

"Okay, just a moment."

Holding the drink that Daisy had mixed for her, Xi Yao returned to her seat.

I took a gentle sniff, and a rich aroma of wine wafted up.

I took a small sip; it was very smooth on the palate, and the alcohol content was indeed very low.

After a few rounds of drinks, Xi Yao's face flushed slightly, and she looked dizzy. It was obvious that the alcohol was taking effect.

"You idiot, I told you to ask me before you drank anything."

"Now look what happened, you're already intoxicated after just a little bit."

"Stop drinking, or you'll really get drunk."

Fireworks deliberately raised her voice a notch, pretending to try to dissuade Xiyao.

Just then, a handsome, masked Fool dressed in a suit walked over.

He first bowed gracefully, then smiled and extended his hand to Xi Yao:

"Beautiful Miss Xi Yao, my name is Charles. May I have the honor of inviting you to dance?"

"Get out of here! Get out of here!"

"Didn't you see that Xi Yao is a little drunk?"

"Are you up to something by asking her to dance at a time like this?"

"Let me tell you, Xi Yao is my best friend!"

"As long as I'm here, I will never let her get hurt!"

Fireworks waved his hand dismissively, feigning anger, seemingly unwelcoming of Charles's arrival.

Charles smiled somewhat awkwardly.

Although he was somewhat unwilling, he couldn't do anything to Huahuo, so he had no choice but to give up on Xiyao, this juicy prey.

However, at that moment, Xi Yao suddenly spoke up.

"Wait a moment!"

"I...I want to dance with you..."

Xi Yao lowered her head, her pink lips slightly pursed, her hands clasped together nervously, and she seemed somewhat...

Shy.

"Xiyao!"

Hanabi held Xiyao's hand with a worried (or excited) expression.

"It's okay, I'm not drunk."

"But you're feeling dizzy right now, making you an easy target for people to take advantage of!"

"It's alright, I believe Mr. Charles isn't that kind of person."

Hanabi:!!!∑(ﾟДﾟノ)ノ

P.S.: Dates are still in short supply!

Have a happy day today!

[Joyful Ideas Recruitment Office]: ...

It's a new year again!

Happy New Year to all my cuties!

The tavern story is just a transition; we'll be moving on to Belleberg soon!

The plot is still being designed and improved, and I'm trying to make it more entertaining, so I've been writing slower lately.

For now, I can only guarantee two updates a day.

Unfortunately, this incompetent author has limited abilities.

I've really tried my best to write this!

o(＞﹏＜)o

I hope you little cuties can feel some joy in this book~

Even if it's just a little bit, the young author feels like they've already succeeded!

Finally, thank you all for your love and support.

Thank you to all the lovely people for the gifts!

Thank you!

Let's go!

It's past midnight again~

Going to sleep now~
