Chapter 407: Chapter 396: Choices

"Something seems to be off, but being forced to meditate for five days straight, it would be weird if she was acting normal," Sena muttered under her breath.

"Sena, what were you saying?" Qu Xin didn’t quite catch what she had said.

"Nothing, I was just saying, let’s wait and see, maybe the Boss is just hungry and rushing to eat," Sena responded with a laugh.

"Maybe so, she did head to the Dining Hall with quite a speed," Qu Xin agreed, thinking that Sena’s explanation seemed reasonable.

Meanwhile, Xia Yue entered the Dining Hall and went straight to the kitchen. She took a plate and helped herself to a bit of each lunch dish Ao Mi had prepared for the staff. She then headed to the small dining area to eat.

"Delicious, it’s absolutely delicious. This is how humans should eat, who survives on just Flowers, Grass, Fruits, and Water all day?" After a few mouthfuls, Xia Yue was nearly moved to tears.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the old freak really didn’t prepare any tasty food for you huh," Ao Mi leaned against the doorway, shaking his head as he watched Xia Yue eat.

"Only gave me some Spiritual Flowers, Grass, Fruits and Water, not even a single bite of meat. Now I understand why you’d leave his little world, even if your cultivation base isn’t rising. The place he set up is simply not suitable for humans," Xia Yue looked at Ao Mi, now empathizing with his feelings.

If she was expected to go her whole life without eating meat or other delightful dishes, without drinking anything enjoyable, and not even allowed to play with her phone or video games, she would rather live a short life than endure such a long life of hardship.

"Great that you understand, I’ll prepare more food for you. I’ll even save some meals and desserts from the past few days for you so you don’t miss out," Ao Mi was glad Xia Yue understood his viewpoint. He felt a surge of positive emotion, and couldn’t help wanting to be kinder towards Xia Yue.

"Perfect, perfect," Xia Yue’s eyes lit up as she looked at Ao Mi expectantly.

"We can have the meals at night, but can you prepare some more desserts for me?" Xia Yue asked him.

"No problem," Ao Mi nodded in agreement.

After savouring her first meal post her meditative retreat, Xia Yue consumed a little more than usual. She sat down and took a decent break before leisurely making her way out.

By then, the Dining Hall was already serving quite a few customers.

"Sena, Miss Qu, good afternoon. Have you had your meal?" Xia Yue-friendly greeted Sena and Qu Xin with a smile.

"We already ate earlier before it started to get busy," Sena nodded in response.

"Boss Xia, were you really hungry? You seemed to have dashed off quite quickly," Qu Xin teased.

"Yes, I was famished. I had some work for the past few days and barely got to eat. As soon as it was done, I sprinted over to have a meal," Xia Yue said.

"The old saying goes, you are iron, and food is steel. If you skip a meal, you’ll definitely feel starving, and it’s absolutely true.

I was practically starving the past few days, so as soon as I had a chance to eat, I couldn’t care less about anything else."

Sitting in the chair by the reception counter, Xia Yue responded to Qu Xin’s inquiry with a sigh of relief.

"Boss Xia, are you preparing any new projects?" Qu Xin asked out of curiosity.

"Eh... The Ghost House hasn’t been open long, how could we be preparing new projects this quickly?" Xia Yue shook her head.

After casting an extended glance at Qu Xin, she asked, "Miss Qu, do you enjoy staying in our resort?"

"I love it. Moving here was the best decision I’ve ever made. Plus, I’ve made such a good friend in Sena," Qu Xin nodded, glancing towards Sena as she responded.

"Oh, that’s great to hear," Xia Yue nodded in return.

"Boss Xia," Qu Xin suddenly called out, looking at Xia Yue with great seriousness.
