Chapter 157 "My Confused Water God Girlfriend"
"But you can't peek at a candlelight dinner."
Nashida took off the communication device on Liu Bai's ear, then flicked it gently, allowing it to be wrapped in the grass elemental force and fly towards Navia on the hot air balloon.
Then, while they were still not getting off the hot air balloon, Nashida took the lead and pulled Liu Bai towards the Debo Hotel.
Navia reached out and caught the communication device flying over, then looked at Clorinde and Charlotte awkwardly.
She already knew...
"Ahahaha... Well, anyway, they succeeded. Even if we didn't contribute any credit, we still worked hard, right?"
Navia, wearing sunglasses on her face, scratched her cheek awkwardly and spoke.
"...Why don't we go down? It's a bit windy up here."
Charlotte suggested somewhat awkwardly.
"good idea."
Clorinde immediately nodded in agreement, then maneuvered the hot air balloon to slowly land in the designated area.
"..."
Only when the hot air balloon landed did they find a girl named Funina waiting on the ground with her arms folded.
Although her right hand was holding her left arm, the handle of the cake box was still hanging on her fingers.
"You guys are quite brave. Don't you know that it is forbidden to fly flying objects in the city during the first three days of every month?"
After the three of them got off the hot air balloon, Furninna stared at them with dissatisfaction.
What she just overheard Nashida said made her guess what was going on. These three people were actually helping Liu Bai with a date!
"Ahahaha, Lady Funina, you misunderstood. We all have our reasons..."
Navia quickly waved her hands to explain, and then whispered to the two people beside her: "Something is wrong. Lady Funina looks very serious today. This is the first time I've seen her like that..."
"Oh, what's the reason? Then tell me. Let me hear your arguments."
When Furninna heard Navia's words, she continued to speak with her arms crossed over her chest.
Seeing her serious look, Navia and the others looked at each other and had to tell the truth, explaining today's plan in detail.
"I see... I can understand your mortal desire for affection and love."
"But as the planners of this date, as far as I know... none of you have ever dated anyone of the opposite sex, right?"
Finina nodded slightly, then looked at the three of them suspiciously.
“Ahahaha… this is because… because of this…”
Navia looked around awkwardly, but soon cooperated and took out the book "The Domineering Judge Falls in Love with Me".
Charlotte immediately followed suit and took out "My Confused Water God Girlfriend".
"We learned everything from books...but we studied seriously, and at least we passed the theoretical knowledge test."
Navia explained to Furninna while holding the novel in her hand.
Furninna didn't look closely at the books in their hands, but looked at Clorinde.
"..."
Clorinde, who had remained unmoved, remained silent for a while, and finally took out a book silently.
Title: The First Young Mistress of Momang Palace: Spoiled by the Water God Husband
"...?"
"Don't worry about it, Lady Furninna. The stories in the book are all fictional. Changing your gender is also a dramatic expression."
Holding the book in her arms to prevent others from seeing its contents, Clorinde calmly explained to Funina.
After hearing what Clorinde said, Funina had to take a deep breath to calm herself down.
"I see. So you learned all these theories from books? This can help him get a date... Is it that simple..."
As Furninna spoke the latter part of her speech, her voice became quieter and she began to mutter to herself.
In response to Funina's question, the three of them nodded in unison.
"Hmph, then I want to see how you learned it... This is the one. You actually dared to write about me. I will requisition it as evidence in court. Later, I will ask the security team to summon the author of the novel."
Finina thought for a moment, then reached out and took the book "My Confused Water God Girlfriend" from Charlotte's hand.
Although the book in Clorinde's hand also wrote about the water god, Furninna was not interested in it. She didn't want to see herself of another gender falling in love with another woman.
"Uh, Lady Furninna, this book may not be suitable for you..."
Seeing that the book in her hand had been taken away, Charlotte reminded carefully.
"Oh why?"
Furninna asked doubtfully after looking at the book in her hand.
The book cover probably did not dare to use the image of Furninna, so a fictional girl's image was printed on it, which is very different from Furninna's image.
"Well... because it doesn't have a happy ending. I'm worried that it will affect your mood after reading it."
Charlotte explained briefly, looking eagerly at the book in Fernina's hand.
"That's perfect, I like the tear-jerking and heart-wrenching plots, otherwise it's too bland."
"I'll let you off this time. I'm going back to eat my cake. I'll return the book to you next time."
After saying that, Funina took the novel and her cake and walked towards Momang Palace.
Navia and Clorinde breathed a sigh of relief and put away the novels in their hands. Only Charlotte watched Fernina leave with eager eyes.
Furninna quickly returned to her room with the novel and cake and locked the door.
"Is it too late for us to learn the skills of love now?"
While enjoying the delicious cake, Furninna picked up the novel and asked Fucarlos.
"……Try it."
"Ah."
After receiving Fucaros' response, Furninna began to look at the contents of the novel carefully.
"My Confused Water God Girlfriend", Fu Fu is washing herself.
"Huh? It was published... about four years ago?!"
The author's pen name made Funina stunned for a moment. She quickly looked at the publication time and found that it was just a few months before Liu Bai was exiled.
……
"You can't drink alcohol, red wine probably isn't okay, so I poured you some black tea to pretend~"
In the private room of the Debo Hotel, the dim atmosphere was illuminated by candlelight. Nashida placed an exquisite red wine glass in front of Liu Bai and spoke to him.
There was a not-too-big table between the two of them, so even if they sat opposite each other during a candlelight dinner, they would not feel the distance between them was far.
"What about yours, girl?"
Liu Bai looked at the liquid in Nashida's cup curiously.
"I am five hundred years old, I can drink."
Nashida said as she held up the wine glass, her face slightly blushing.
“…Then I want to drink too!”
Liu Bai looked at the black tea in his cup, then looked at the red wine in Nashida's cup, and felt that the latter tasted better.
"Why are you acting like a child now? Okay, okay, I'll give you a drink."
Liu Bai's reaction made Nashida feel a little funny, and then she stood up and handed the wine glass in her hand to Liu Bai.
Looking at the wine glass handed to him, Liu Bai did not reach out to take it, but opened his mouth and held the edge of the glass.
Nashida had no choice but to cooperate by tilting the wine glass to let the red wine flow into Liu Bai's mouth.
“…It doesn’t taste good either.”
Liu Bai smacked his lips and shook his head in disappointment.
“No one said it tasted good.”
"Okay, let's have our meal. This candlelight dinner is their token of appreciation after a busy day. We have to take it seriously."
