The Real Way to Cultivate in the City
Chapter 112 - 109: I Feel Like I’m Dying, But Please Try to Save Me, Thanks
[Lin Hao has acquired a Middle-Grade Super Five Elements Single Dog Spirit Root]
[Middle-Grade Super Five Elements Single Dog Spirit Root:
Can sense the Spiritual Qi of the Five Elements and beyond in the air, providing outstanding enhancement effects among singles, dog groups, or dogs raised by singles, doubling the effects if one remains single]
After the log change, Lin Hao could clearly feel the speed of his magical power increase noticeably.
Even without synchronizing memories with the incarnation, Lin Hao could feel the incarnation’s joy.
After all, for the incarnation, as long as there is a chance to enhance strength or gain more cultivation resources, he would smile even while meditating and cultivating...
At this moment, Li Chuchu, who was holding Wangcai, surprisingly looked at Wangcai:
"Wangcai, why do I feel your colorful fur on the forehead looks even better?"
Wangcai looked up at Li Chuchu, yawned, and snuggled back into Li Chuchu’s arms.
As a normal dog, he needs to sleep sixteen hours a day, and as a puppy, sleep time is even longer, needing to yawn from time to time...
"So well-behaved."
Li Chuchu petted Wangcai’s smooth fur and continued chatting with familiar, somewhat familiar, and unfamiliar people in the hall.
To expand the business, you have to interact with all kinds of people.
Since Lin Hao doesn’t have the habit or hobby of socializing, it had to be done by herself...
"Chuchu, your dog is so cool, can I hold it?"
"Miss Li, what do you usually feed this dog? Its fur is so nice?"
"..."
Well, strictly speaking, it’s me and Lin Hao’s dog working together.
The tea tasting event lasted for three hours, and the overall atmosphere was quite nice.
No man who couldn’t help but love Li Chuchu gave Lin Hao a hard time, no one told Li Chuchu "let’s have a fair competition," and no pretentious people said milk tea is industrial waste affecting health and needs to be vomited...
Moreover, many people also realized that the core of the Happy Milk Tea brand is Lin Hao, who mastered the milk tea-making technique.
At the end of the tea tasting event, many people left their contact information for Lin Hao.
Some even shook hands with Lin Hao before leaving, suggesting more exchanges in the future, and scratched Lin Hao’s palm when releasing the handshake...
This person scratching my palm is a guy!
Lin Hao instinctively gave a hit to his Spiritual Power, knocking the guy out straight away.
Amidst the crowd’s gasps, the private doctor of the Li Family Manor immediately appeared, and after a professional diagnosis, confirmed it as—— 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Kidney deficiency.
Narrow escape, narrow escape.
Everyone received a souvenir prepared by Mr. Li upon leaving, not very expensive, just a pure gold membership card that allows you to take someone to consume within the Li family’s dining industries.
"Ah!"
After sending off the last wave of guests at the manor gate, Li Chuchu sat in the car, exhaling a long breath and rubbing her slightly sore cheeks.
"Thank you for your hard work, boss," Lin Hao said, sitting in the front row to Li Chuchu.
"I didn’t work hard at all, it was just chatting for an afternoon, you were the one who was busy the whole afternoon."
Speaking, Li Chuchu leaned forward slightly, arms resting on the front seat’s backrest, and said:
"Speaking of which, although my dad loves me, he’s never organized an event like today to introduce me to outsiders, I really need to thank you, and this time I’m back, my dad didn’t rush me to get a match, it’s really great."
Speaking about happy things, Li Chuchu laughed, but soon, both she and Lin Hao’s gazes fell in the same direction——
In that direction, an obvious alarm was sounding.
Over there is Ke Chen City outside Chenxi District.
"Lin Hao, how many people do you think will die this time?"
"I don’t know."
"Yeah, I don’t know. I wonder if our old customers will line up again next time we open the shop."
...
"Dear, the Happy Milk Tea Shop didn’t open today, there’s no freshly made milk tea to drink."
An old man opened the house door, carrying two enamel cups.
But no one at home answered his call.
After all...
Nobody was home.
After locking each lock and closing the doors, he walked alone with a cane to the shrine.
On the shrine, there was a photo of a young woman...
This was a photo of his wife when she was young.
This was her last wish before she passed away.
"My portrait must be a beautiful photo."
"You promise me, after I leave, you will offer me a cup of milk tea every day, from the Happy Milk Tea Shop."
"And remember to talk to me every day, tell me any new things happening."
"Also, if you have a new... No, you can’t like someone new."
"Alright, I feel like I’m dying."
This woman, all her life, loved beauty and fashion, lived the same way young people do.
Don’t they say that women live longer than men?
Why did my spouse leave before me then?
Before she died, she fell in love with milk tea, took me out every day to queue up, drink milk tea together, and go for walks.
Oh, right, "going for walks" is what young people call strolling.
When I told other old men in the neighborhood about strolling, they didn’t even know what it meant, really outdated...
Outdated it must be.
The old man kind of forgot what young people nowadays say about lagging behind.
But it’s fine, now my spouse wouldn’t laugh at me for saying it right or wrong either.
"Today there is no freshly made milk tea, I’ll make you a cup of milk tea powder packet instead."
Saying this, he took out a packet of milk tea powder from the drawer in the shrine, poured a little more into his spouse’s enamel mug, and the rest into his own cup.
Picked up the thermos and brewed it.
"I know, you had me buy milk tea every day because you wanted me to go out and stroll more, but after you were gone, strolling really lost its meaning.
Coincidentally, the milk tea shop isn’t open today either, so I came home early to chat with you more and keep you company.
Let me tell you, old Li, the leader of the square dancing group in our community, wasn’t he getting close with that woman, what was her name again...
Oh dear, oh dear, the name isn’t important, anyway old Li was getting close with that woman, and when they were out walking, some young people shot videos and uploaded them online, and their family saw it, now old Li’s family member is making a fuss about divorcing him!
And also..."
The old man looked at the black and white photo of his spouse when she was young, chattering away to himself, but as he spoke he felt an increasing darkness before his eyes, feeling as if all his strength was being drained.
What’s happening?
Am I dying?
No way!
Can’t die right now!
The house hasn’t been cleaned today, can’t let others clean up and think I’m a sloppy old man.
A man’s image commonly ties closely to his wife after they have a partner.
If a married man is sloppy, others wouldn’t say something about the man, but that there is a woman at home who doesn’t care about the household...
I can’t die now, can’t disgrace my spouse.
The old man steadied himself against the shrine, instinctively grabbed the enamel cup, disregarding the steam still coming out of the cup’s mouth.
Before my spouse died, she couldn’t speak clearly and her mind became unclear, but after drinking Happy Milk Tea, she could thoroughly arrange her affairs!
The old man drank the cup down in one go, feeling slightly more clear-headed, not as weak.
But the next moment, he seemed to be weak enough to hallucinate...
Right now, on the surface of his skin, some pale green fluorescence actually seeped out.
How could a person’s skin surface glow?
Didn’t eat mushrooms today either!
But regardless, while he still had some spirit, the old man dialed the hospital.
"Hey, I feel like I’m about to die, but I think I can be saved, my address is..."
After giving his address, that weak feeling surged in the old man’s heart again, he drank down his spouse’s cup too, while feeling restored, unlocked the locks one by one at the door, leaving it wide open...
Then he went to the bedroom and tidied the quilt.
Afterward, he took out all the existing milk tea powder packets from the shrine.
Alone, he sat on the sofa with a cane, quietly watching the faint green fluorescence emerge from himself, gazing at it gathering into a small green light spot.
Really beautiful...
If my spouse could see this hallucination now, she’d probably think it looks good too.
When the old man felt weak, he tore open a packet of milk tea powder, chewed, and swallowed it...
Finally, when he swallowed the fourth packet of milk tea powder and felt a bit dry in the mouth, he heard "gonna die, gonna die, gonna die..." sirens from outside the community.
"Spouse, I am going to the hospital, don’t worry, I might have food poisoning, right now I see green light coming out of myself~
So interesting, pity you can’t see it."
After a while, he felt someone rushing into the room.
"Old sir, is there anyone in your family not feeling well? Old sir, what’s going on with you?!"
The medical staff carrying a stretcher charged into the room, only to see an old man sitting on the sofa eating something.
And he was glowing all over...
After swallowing the milk tea powder in his mouth, he pointed to himself:
"Me, I feel like I’m about to die, but please save me, um...
Can you see the green light on me? Did you also have food poisoning today?"
