Chapter 685: Chapter 488 The World Is Ours, Also Yours_2

But just watching the show like this didn’t seem right, so it tapped its paws, drawing everyone’s attention over.

"Alright, everyone, please take a seat first."

The God of Fool snapped its fingers, and six high-back chairs and a round table rose from the floor.

"We’ll arrange the seating like this, any objections?"

The God of Fool waved its cat paw, wood shavings continuously falling from the high-back chairs and blown away by the wind, leaving behind names.

"No objections."

Everyone shook their heads.

"Then please take your seats."

The God of Fool made an inviting gesture and then took a seat at the head of the table.

Everyone exchanged a glance and sat in the seats engraved with their names.

Starting from the left paw of the God of Fool, the order was Liu Zheng, San Huamao, Tentacle Monster, Fei Shibu, and the novelist.

The God of Fool tapped its paws again, and a three-tiered gold-rimmed porcelain plate appeared in front of each person.

The first tier held beef sandwiches, the second scones, and the third cakes and fruit tarts.

Following that, around the three-tiered porcelain plate appeared strainers and small saucers, sets of cups, sugar jars, milk jugs, teaspoons, seven-inch individual dessert plates, tea knives, forks, residue bowls, napkins, fresh flowers, warm covers, wooden trays, and other small items, all laid out splendidly.

"What tea does everyone like to drink?"

The God of Fool asked.

"Anything is fine for me."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Black tea."

"Green tea."

"Oolong."

"..."

Everyone else chose something different.

"I’ll go tell the kitchen, everyone can chat a bit now. Just don’t start a fight, or you’ll end up in the little black room again."

The God of Fool stared at Fei Shibu.

"Don’t worry, Lord of Fool, I’ll keep an eye on them."

The novelist promised.

"That’s good."

The God of Fool jumped down from the high-back chair and walked into the grey mist.

"Senior, I knew you would rescue me."

As soon as the God of Fool left, the novelist spoke.

"You’ve helped me so much; how could I let you suffer in the little black room."

Liu Zheng said matter-of-factly.

"How did Senior know I was in the little black room?"

The novelist curiously asked.

"It was the God of Fool who told me."

He recounted how he got in touch with the God of Fool.

"Senior has done so much for me."

The novelist said softly, her gaze gentle like water.

"Can’t help it, I’m just this kind of guy. Owing someone makes me uncomfortable all over."

Liu Zheng said boldly.

"Is it just because you owe someone?"

The novelist’s tone was a bit disappointed.

"Of course not. You’re fair-skinned, beautiful, with a great figure; locking you in the little black room isn’t as good as holding you in my arms."

He gave a devilish smile.

"Yuck!"

Fei Shibu finally couldn’t hold it in any longer.

"Go vomit your pregnancy symptoms elsewhere, don’t disrupt our afternoon tea."

Liu Zheng said unkindly.

"Can’t you have some decency?"

Fei Shibu cursed.

"And you think yucking in the middle of flirting is decent?"

He retorted.

"So, you admit you like our novelist?"

Fei Shibu honed in on the point.

"Why wouldn’t I?"

Liu Zheng retorted.

"Then why keep her hanging? Why not seal the deal?"

Fei Shibu pressed her advantage.

"What’s the rush, we playboys are like this. Besides, I’m on the rise now, gotta focus on my career; love can wait."

He made up an excuse.

"Your little career isn’t worth a hair compared to hers."

Fei Shibu scoffed.

"Better to depend on oneself than parents. So why do you write novels, instead of listening to the family and getting into a marriage alliance?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"How do you know my family wants me to marry for alliance?"

Fei Shibu furrowed her brow.

This guy, could he have someone investigate her?

"Just guessed. That’s how big families like to consolidate relationships, right?"

Liu Zheng said.

"Hmph, you’re lacking in nothing but cunning."

Fei Shibu sneered.

"You’re low on cunning too, and it’s not like you’re making up for it elsewhere."

"Damn you!"

Fei Shibu raised her brows, ready to let the red and blue-horned demons leap from her eyes.

"I’m not scared!"

Liu Zheng, with blades in hand, was about to slice up the demons for an extra meal.

"This scene is just fantastic."

The Tentacle Monster pulled out a shorthand notebook, eyes glowing.

It would use this as material for a new book, the effect would surely be great.

If not fearing a double beating from the couple, it would have shouted "Fight, fight."

"Have you two had enough?!"

A sudden yell at the round table nearly made the Tentacle Monster poke a hole through its notebook, while San Huamao’s ears went flat.

The novelist’s angry gaze swept over Liu Zheng and Fei Shibu, the two intimidated by her aura, their eyes flickered.

"Fei Shibu, if you keep this up, I’m never taking you out to play again."

"Senior, Fei Shibu is my friend, I hope you can respect her more, otherwise I’ll be in a difficult position too."

She said sternly to the two.

"I’m sorry."

They both said in unison, then glared at each other.

"Wow, such chemistry, is this the love-hate relationship of rivals? Loving it, loving it."

The Tentacle Monster licked its pen tip and continued to write feverishly.

Seeing such a scene, even if the God of Fool doesn’t take it as an apprentice, it’s already worth it!

"Such energetic and passionate young people."

The God of Fool walked out of the grey mist, smiling.

"Only such lively and dynamic young people can create works full of spirit and possibilities."

"The Writer Association belongs to us, and to you, but ultimately it belongs to you."

"You young writers, brimming with vitality, are in your prime, like the eight or nine o’clock morning sun. The Writer Association’s hope rests on you."

It said smilingly.

In an instant, Liu Zheng felt a weight from its tone that shouldn’t belong to a popular great writer.

"Thank you, Lord of Fool, we will continue to work hard."

The novelist respectfully said.

"As long as she’s working hard, that’s enough. I’ll just write some short stories, earn a title, and make some pocket money."

Fei Shibu waved her hand.

She joined the Writer Association just to get the title of Golden Writer to avoid her family’s arranged marriage.

"Everyone has their own ambitions, I won’t force it. The short story field is also a pillar of our Writer Association."

The Black Cat nodded.

Although the short story field rarely produces "narrators," in terms of profitability and influence, it’s not much worse than the long-form field.

"Alright, gentlemen and ladies, let’s enjoy today’s afternoon tea."

The Black Cat snapped its fingers and a teapot appeared before everyone.

"Today’s tea party theme is freedom and friendship. Eat as you wish, drink as you like, no need to adhere to etiquette and status."

"However, quarreling and fighting are still not allowed."

The Black Cat hinted.

"In that case, let me share some special food with everyone."

Liu Zheng took out dried fish and placed a few on each person’s plate.

"This was prepared by our assistant chef, Salmon, using large fish selected by the Fisherman from the sewer. In terms of taste and ingredients, it’s a masterpiece."

He introduced.

"Indeed, it’s very delicious. Let us thank Mr. Takeout for his generous sharing and Lady Salmon for her exquisite preparation."

The Black Cat elegantly finished its dried fish and was the first to applaud.

Everyone else followed, clapping in appreciation.

"I’m glad you liked it, meow~ I’m very happy, meow~"

San Huamao shook its tail in delight.

"Uh, Lady San Huamao, this is..."

The Black Cat looked a bit dazed.

"Ahem, so, Salmon’s foster mother is a German Shepherd."

Liu Zheng explained on its behalf.

"I see, no wonder Lady San Huamao has such a distinctive aura, completely different from ordinary cats."

The Black Cat’s tone carried a hint of admiration.

"Hmm?!"

Suddenly, a warning bell rang in its heart.
