Chapter 191 Helping Ying Deliver Takeaway
Xinyang was a little dazed by Linghua's sudden hug. Feeling Linghua's warm embrace, he felt touched but also a little embarrassed. He said hurriedly, "I was worried that you were still angry, so I wanted to avoid causing you any more trouble."
"I hate it when you're like this," Linghua loosened her arms slightly, looked up at Xinyang, a hint of resentment in her eyes, "You always think about it on your own and never tell me the truth, as if I'm the kind of unreasonable person. If you're cold, just say it openly. I'm not really going to ignore you. Why do you have to make so much trouble? What if you really get sick because of this?"
Xinyang listened to Linghua's scolding, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice. He said with a look of regret, "Wife, I know I was wrong. I will never do this again. I will tell you everything and I will never do it myself again. Please don't be angry, okay?"
Linghua snorted softly, then leaned back into Xinyang's arms, mumbling, "How could I get mad at you over a joke? I just think you're too distant sometimes, taking everything on yourself. We're the closest people, and you make me feel so empty inside, like an outsider."
Xinyang hugged Linghua tightly and promised, "There won't be a next time."
The two of them hugged each other like this. After a while, Linghua yawned and said, "Okay, I'm so sleepy, let's go to sleep quickly. You kept me up so late tonight."
Xin Yang responded and lay down with Ling Hua. He kissed Ling Hua lightly on the forehead and said softly, "Good night."
Linghua kissed Xinyang on the cheek and replied, "Well, good night."
The next day, egrets were covered with frost.
"Boss, we're running out of takeout orders today." Nana Kane anxiously approached Xinyang, beads of sweat covering her forehead.
"What happened? Don't be anxious, tell me slowly." Xin Yang comforted him when he saw this.
Nana Kano calmed down a little, organized her words and said, "Boss, originally Ying could handle half of the store's takeout orders, so our store has never arranged too many deliverymen. But who knew that today, Ying and Miss Xianyun did not come to work, and today's business is unusually hot. The few of us are already very busy just entertaining the customers in the store, and we really can't spare anyone to deliver the takeout." Nana Kano spoke quickly, her voice full of anxiety and helplessness.
"I know you are in a hurry, but don't worry. Ying can't come these days because of something. Let's put it this way, leave the takeaway to me and Linghua, and you just focus on serving the customers in the store." Xinyang said calmly.
When Nana Kane heard this, a hint of hesitation suddenly appeared on her face, and she said with some concern: "Boss, will this work?"
At this time, Linghua had already put on her clothes neatly. She also picked up Xinyang's coat and handed it to him, saying with a smile, "It's just a delivery. It's not difficult, Nana, don't worry. We will definitely deliver these orders as soon as possible."
Xinyang reached out to take the coat and said confidently, "Special circumstances warrant special treatment. Besides, Linghua and I have been in Liyue Harbor for so long that we're already familiar with the area. Just leave the takeout orders to us. I'll have to trouble you to take care of the customers in the restaurant. We can hire a few more employees when we have more time."
Seeing Xinyang and Linghua were so determined, Nana Kane didn't know what to say. She could only nod and say, "Okay then. Be careful on your way."
Xinyang glanced at the takeout orders and pondered for a moment. "These orders can be roughly divided into two categories: one for orders within Liyue Harbor, and the other for orders outside of Liyue Harbor. So, let's split up. I'll take care of the outside deliveries, and you'll take care of the inside. Whoever finishes first will help the other deliver, and we'll try to get it done as quickly as possible. How do you think?"
Linghua nodded slightly and replied, "Alright, let's do as you say. Be careful when you deliver orders outside of Liyue Harbor. The situation out there is unpredictable, so make sure nothing goes wrong."
Xinyang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Don't overwork yourself."
The two of them walked out of the store, each carrying a package full of takeout.
It was winter, the wind was biting, and the wilderness was completely silent, with not even a single pedestrian in sight. Fortunately, Xinyang could control the wind element, and with its power, he was incredibly fast, finishing his takeaway before noon.
On the way back to Liyue Harbor, Xinyang began to wonder. He'd noticed something quite odd: It was so cold, and the people who'd ordered takeout were probably just looking for convenience, not wanting to get out and chill. However, the food he'd just delivered was mostly to camps in the wild, and the distances between them were incredibly long. Even stranger, no one was actually there. It felt like a prank, and yet the orders had already been paid for. Xinyang didn't think much of it, and simply hurried back to Liyue Harbor to help Linghua deliver the order.
If nothing else, there will be an accident.
Back at Bailu Shuanghua, Nana Kane told Xinyang, "Linghua went to deliver takeout outside Liyue Harbor and has been out for a while."
When Xin Yang heard what Nana Kane said, she was stunned and her face was full of surprise: "What? How is that possible? I have clearly finished delivering the takeaway outside."
Nana Shikano quickly explained, "Not long after the boss lady returned, a man in yellow and black clothing, masked, placed a takeout order for food to a location quite far outside of Liyue Harbor. The boss lady volunteered to take the order and immediately set out to deliver it."
When Xinyang heard the words "yellow and black clothes", his heart suddenly skipped a beat and a strong bad premonition instantly came to his mind.
Xin Yang quickly asked, "Is he a yellow-haired man like Ying? He also looks like a traveler?"
Nana Kane's face was full of surprise, her eyes widened as she said, "Hey, Boss, how did you know that? It's true, she does look a bit like Ying, also with blond hair."
Xinyang's face changed and he said anxiously, "It's bad! If Linghua comes back, you must keep her in the store and tell her that I told you to do so. You must stop her!" After saying this, Xinyang did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately used all his strength to drive the power of the wind element in his body. He rushed out the door like a gust of wind.
Xin Yang, using the power of the wind element, arrived above Liyue Harbor. As the sea breeze roared through Liyue Harbor once again, Xin Yang concentrated on sensing the surroundings. However, this time, he didn't notice anything unusual.
"Looks like we're outside." Xinyang muttered softly, then flew quickly towards the outside of Liyue Harbor.
At this moment, Xin Yang's mind was completely focused on Ling Hua's safety, and he didn't notice that two Water Abyss Apostles had quietly followed him not far behind. These two apostles had already activated their shields and were now charging towards Xin Yang with a fierce look on their faces.
One of the apostles suddenly swung the strangely shaped weapon in his hand, and in an instant, a water blade shot towards Xinyang like an arrow.
The other apostle used the shield in front of him as a cover and followed closely behind the apostle who shot out the water blade, staring at Xinyang, ready to attack at any time.
Just as the water blade was about to hit Xinyang, Xinyang finally reacted, but it was too late for him to dodge. Helplessly, Xinyang could only quickly gather wind elemental power in his arms, trying to withstand the water blade.
The impact of the water blade was quite strong, and Xinyang only felt a sharp pain in his arm.
Just as he took the water blade head-on and his body swayed slightly due to the huge impact, the Apostle of the Abyss who was hiding behind the water blade seized this opportunity and suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Xinyang.
He raised the weapon in his hand and stabbed Xinyang fiercely.
Xinyang used all his strength to dodge to the side and finally avoided the vital parts, but the tip of the weapon still grazed his arm and instantly pierced his arm.
Xinyang couldn't help but groan, and felt a piercing pain in his arm. Blood suddenly gushed out from the wound, quickly staining his sleeves red.
But even so, Xin Yang didn't care about the wound on his arm at the moment, because Xin Yang clearly saw that the enemies in front of him were two Abyss Apostles.
Xinyang's anger suddenly rose up.
Xin Yang summoned the West Wind Sword and said, "I was just worried that I couldn't find you guys, yet you dared to attack me? Go back and tell Kong to clean his neck and wait for me to kill him!"
