Chapter 274 Old Master Lu was busy showing off today, displaying the gift his idol gave him to every
"Yeah, but the small size of my backpack isn't quite big enough anymore. It would be great if it were a bit bigger..."
As I accumulate more and more things, I now need to clean out and organize my belongings from time to time, otherwise they will fill up very quickly.
【Um… how about I spend 10 to upgrade the host's inventory to a medium size?】
"No need to waste money like that! Let's wait for the next lottery and try our luck!"
Bai Mengran was just saying that; she didn't want the system to be foolish enough to spend so much money out of its own pocket. She would be happier if she could rely on luck to win next time.
Feeling that the weather outside was really hot, Bai Mengran bought herself a strawberry ice cream.
After thinking about it, I bought another one with sesame sauce flavor, intending to give it to Old Lu to cool him down later.
She had just started eating when they arrived at their destination. Her mount was already circling above the Lu residence, waiting for her "landing" command.
Coincidentally, Bai Mengran looked down and saw two familiar figures in the courtyard of the Lu residence, gazing up at the sky...
She was overjoyed and quickly bought another strawberry ice cream, planning to give them a big surprise after landing!
Before this, Lu Weihuai was discussing painting principles with his granddaughter Lu Yanran in the study when he suddenly heard a voice transmission reminding him. He immediately perked up and hurriedly called Lu Yanran to go outside together to look up at the mysterious sky once again.
Since receiving the book "Principles of Animation" from Bai Mengran yesterday, Lu Weihuai has treasured it like a precious gem, reading it constantly and marveling at the extraordinary wisdom it contains.
Recently, friends and acquaintances from afar have been arriving in droves to attend the banquet. They all first visit Elder Lu at the Lu residence before finding an inn to settle in.
Today, almost all the guests who came to visit were invited to Old Master Lu's study, ostensibly to discuss skills, but in reality, it was to show off the precious gifts he had received yesterday.
As soon as a guest enters, he is drawn to the eye-catching and novel gift on the desk and asks Mr. Lu about its origin.
Whenever this happened, Old Lu would feel a sense of pride. He would casually recount how he had met a talented young friend and how these gifts were generously given to him by her.
Next, he would introduce the unique features of these wonderful items one by one. Seeing the amazement and envy on his friends' faces, Old Lu was overjoyed.
Of course, he didn't forget to promote his idol, Miss Bai, and strongly recommended that these fellow enthusiasts who arrived early visit [Fairyland], guaranteeing that they would not be disappointed.
Today, he even asked his housekeeper to invite his granddaughter, Lu Yanran, to order a lot of takeout, especially fruits and snacks, to entertain his friends who have been visiting frequently recently.
All the friends who had tasted the delicious food at [Fairyland] at Master Lu's place were impressed by its taste and couldn't wait to head straight to [Fairyland] without Master Lu urging them any further.
Lu Weihuai would also casually mention that all the food at this banquet was generously sponsored by the owner of [Fairyland], who was also his young friend, which instantly made the enthusiasts look forward to it and praised it highly.
Seeing this, Old Master Lu was very satisfied; this was exactly the effect he wanted.
He has spared no effort in promoting his idol's online presence.
Lu Yanran was called in by her grandfather to help, but she ended up as a heartless tool for ordering takeout.
But she was gentle and quiet by nature. In addition to completing the tasks assigned by her grandfather, she also drank the fruit tea she ordered and quietly read a book, enjoying the afternoon.
As soon as the sky opened, the grandfather and grandson, both loyal fans of the Fairy Realm or Bai Mengran, naturally went out to show their support.
Afterwards, Lu Weihuai, who had already learned some theoretical knowledge from Xue Wei through books, curiously pondered the mysteries of moving screens...
Meanwhile, Lu Yanran was drawn to the newly opened Chinese restaurant advertised on the sky screen.
Just as the grandfather and granddaughter were intently gazing at the sky, which was nearing its end, Bai Mengran suddenly appeared in mid-air, riding on a magnificent koi fish, waving to them, and then descending from the sky...
Amidst their astonished gazes, she descended slowly like a goddess.
Lu Weihuai only dared to imagine and depict this scene when he was painting, but he never expected that it would become a reality in a miraculous way.
“Idol…” Lu Weihuai murmured absentmindedly, rubbed his eyes, and when he looked up again, his idol was really standing in front of him.
At that moment, he believed the rumors that his idol was truly a fairy descended from heaven!
"Miss Bai, why did you suddenly appear?" Lu Weihuai asked, looking somewhat dazed, clearly not having had time to adjust his state.
Bai Mengran dismounted, gently waved her hand to put it away, and then explained her purpose.
"Elder Lu, Yanran, I am well aware of the importance of the Flowing Wine Banquet!"
In particular, the fact that Mr. Lu, as the organizer, trusted me and entrusted me with the banquet arrangements shows that he placed great trust in me.
Therefore, I specially drafted a menu today and sent it to Mr. Lu for his review and approval.
As she spoke, she took out a scroll and handed it to Lu Weihuai.
The exquisite handscroll, when unfolded, revealed a hand that wrote elegant and fluent small regular script, quite charming.
What amazed Lu Weihuai and Lu Yanran even more were the names of the dishes!
Just by looking at its name, one can imagine its taste. Each dish is like a painting, each dish like a poem. What ingenuity and care this is!
Even without seeing these dishes, one can almost imagine vivid and exquisite dishes just from their names...
Although Bai Mengran was very confident in her proposed menu, she was still thinking about how to get Old Master Lu to approve or praise it...
However, she was clearly worrying unnecessarily.
Without any prompting, Lu Weihuai was already beaming with satisfaction, and his praise flowed freely without reservation:
"Excellent! Miss Bai's menu is absolutely brilliant!"
This shows that the young lady really put a lot of thought and effort into this banquet.
Mr. Lu had never seen such elegant dishes before; just hearing the name filled him with immense anticipation!
Upon hearing his praise, Bai Mengran immediately asked the system in her mind, "System, does this count as recognition and approval? So, is the task complete?"
After receiving a satisfactory answer from Tongzi, Bai Mengran quickly responded to the endless praise.
Then, she quickly took out the strawberry ice cream she had just eaten from her bag, and also took out the sesame sauce popsicles and the same strawberry ice cream that she had bought especially for the two of them, and handed them to them to enjoy together.
Having already accepted Bai Mengran's sudden appearance from the sky, the two found it unsurprising that she conjured ice cream out of thin air...
After thanking her, I joined her in enjoying the meal.
The coolness of the ice cream instantly dispelled the heat, and the three of them found a seat in the shade of the courtyard, chatting and enjoying the melt-in-your-mouth, soft and icy ice cream...
