Chapter 450 The Trouble Caused by Cabbage
"That powerful?" Black-faced Aci's eyes widened, then she thought of something, "That makes sense, you are a spirit race, you have spiritual power."
When Bai Lingshan looked at him, he was still pondering.
For a fleeting moment, she felt that he would stop sending her cabbages to improve her meals once he confirmed her non-human identity.
No, she must continue to confess.
"Actually... I am human, and that spirit weapon just happens to be something I can use. Also... thank you for the cabbage you gave me, it was delicious."
Her voice was low, but it was earnest.
Black-faced Aci was stunned for a moment, her eyes filled with disbelief: "You're human? And what cabbage? The cabbage I planted?"
Bai Lingshan hesitated for a moment before nodding.
He was even more surprised. "You've eaten the cabbages I grew? When did that happen? How come I didn't know?"
Bai Lingshan was also stunned, and she felt a little guilty: "Didn't you... often deliver them to my room?"
"No." Black-faced A-Ci shook her head like a rattle drum.
The air fell silent for a moment, and Bai Lingshan sensed that something was wrong.
If it weren't for him sending it...
So, it was meant to be given to someone else, but was mistakenly delivered to her room? But that happened so many times over several months, it's impossible that it was delivered to the wrong room every time, right?
Bai Lingshan tentatively asked, "How many Class A rooms does the inn have?"
Dark-faced A-Ci immediately shook his head, as if he had realized something: "I know! It must be A-Tao! There are only the two of us in this shop, so if it's not me, it can only be him!"
Bai Lingshan: "?"
Bai Lingshan asked cautiously, "Was it not meant for someone else, but was delivered to the wrong room?"
Dark-faced A-Ci looked back at her with a serious expression: "Impossible. No one in the shop has ordered this cabbage so far. Besides, the only guests in the shop recently are you and another guy in a regular room, so!"
"..."
So, the cabbage wasn't delivered to the wrong room? Or did she ask the wrong person?
Oh no, they always argued about cabbage anyway, and this time they've accidentally caused a huge mess for them.
Sure enough, the side that had been under pressure would immediately strike when given the opportunity to counterattack. Bai Lingshan watched his hurried return to the inn and felt a deep sense of fear.
"You keep telling me not to promote it, but look at you! You secretly gave it to others! I'll catch you red-handed after all this time. I never expected this."
As he was about to enter the store, the dark-faced Ah Ci was still muttering to himself. But the moment he entered, Ah Ci simply stood there staring at him.
Bai Lingshan followed closely behind, her sweat dripping.
Is this the calm before the storm?
Pale-faced Ah Tao glanced at him casually and happened to see the bag of magic crystals in his hand.
"What happened? You actually got it back?" He quickly came over.
Dark-faced A-Ci chuckled, "Isn't it amazing?"
He took the magic crystal bag, weighed it in his hand, and then gave a thumbs up: "Amazing!"
At this moment, the dark-faced Ah Ci ran to his side, her grin somewhat lewd: "Ah Tao, I never knew you were this kind of guy, hehehe..."
A Tao, with his pale face, twitched at the corner of his mouth. What was this guy trying to do? "Are you sick?"
Bai Lingshan watched from the side, but the scene she had envisioned on the way here shouldn't have been like this.
"A man who says one thing but means another; he may say he doesn't like it, but in his heart he thinks this cabbage is more desirable than I am."
"What?" The pale-faced Ah Tao looked disgusted and shook off the hand that was about to put its arm around his shoulder. "What did you say? Possessed?"
Dark-faced A-Ci chuckled again, her face beaming with joy: "Stop pretending! If Miss A-Ruo hadn't asked me, I'd have been completely in the dark!" White-faced A-Tao: "What?"
Black-faced A-Ci puffed out her chest and said, "Stop pretending! You clearly really like cabbage, which is why you thought of giving it to the guests. And you were saying to me that no one in the human world would eat cabbage? You even complained that I was using it to attract customers! You didn't expect that, did you? I knew everything!"
It took Ah Tao, with his pale face, a long pause before he reacted, "Cabbage?"
"Yup!"
Pale-faced Tao sneered and glanced at Bai Lingshan, who seemed to be "stirring up trouble."
"You're talking nonsense! I'd give away cabbage? Do you think I'm crazy? You're so treasuring this cabbage! I think you're just being guilty and crying wolf!" He didn't hold back at all and started cursing at the dark-faced Ah Ci.
"Give me back the cabbage I secretly gave to Miss Aruo? She's a spirit! Would a spirit like to eat human cabbage? Besides, I'm already being kind by not throwing it away! You think I like it? Maybe in my next life!"
“?” Dark-faced Aci was stunned. He also glanced at Bai Lingshan, as if asking her: Are you sure this is true?
At this moment, Bai Lingshan felt bitter inside; she really hadn't been playing a trick on them.
However, their gazes only lingered on Bai Lingshan for a moment before the pale-faced Tao's mocking voice rang out.
"Hilarious! I get it now. Haven't you been arguing for days and are you itching for a fight? Your few rotten cabbages are just an eyesore to others!"
Black-faced Aci also laughed at herself, and slowly nodded as she looked at him.
Suddenly her eyes flashed with a sharp light, and she tapped his nose with her fingertip. "Say that again!? If you dare throw me, I'll throw you first!"
When it comes to arguing, Pale-faced A-Tao never backs down: "Then throw me! You'd better throw me onto a bloodthirsty beast! That way you can be reincarnated!"
"Okay! You said it!"
And so, just as Bai Lingshan had hoped, the two of them started arguing.
During the months they've been here, they've said the same harsh words every time they argue, but since they're a single entity with deep feelings for each other, the final outcome is always just a few days of cold war.
Moreover, this whole thing started because of her. If she tries to mediate, it will only escalate the tension between them. Besides, what if they take their anger out on her?
She may not argue, but the fact remains that there is someone who is giving her cabbages.
Actually, she's a very persistent person, so she decided to sneak back into her room.
After leaving the "war," things became much quieter, but there were still some whispers and the sound of rough pottery bowls breaking on the ground, which aroused the suspicion of the reflection in the mirror inside the room.
"Did those two fight again?"
After pressing for details, Mirror Shadow finally understood the reason behind the incident.
"Master! That's not right of you. If someone gives it to you, you should just accept it quietly. Asking so bluntly is so embarrassing."
Bai Lingshan also felt wronged; she just wanted to thank the person who gave her the cabbage.
"I just wanted to thank him when no one was around, who knew it would turn out like this."
Ugh.
Looking at the few remaining cabbage leaves on the table, Bai Lingshan was filled with confusion.
"If it weren't for the two of them, who else would it be?"
Mirror Image replied, "Maybe it is them, they just don't dare to admit it."
Looking back on the cabbages delivered over the past few months, they were always secretly put in after she had left the house.
She had never seen who that person was, and there was indeed no way to prove that it was between the two of them.
Just then, the clear sound of bells outside drew her attention.
