Chapter 870: Chapter 870: Just Asking the Lady Benefactor to Grant My Wish
Shi Yaoguang had no idea that the Little Monk was struggling over one of her chickens.
And she certainly didn’t know what a high price he would have to pay if he wanted to eat one of her chickens.
She had decided to leave after filming three days at the Love Cabin, so naturally she wanted to make the most of this opportunity.
Wasn’t Quan Feifei trying to use delicious food to win over men?
Shi Yaoguang wouldn’t stop her from taking this chance.
After all, people always need to show off their skills.
The only question was whether Quan Feifei could seize the opportunity.
There was a saying that made perfect sense.
Shi Yaoguang absolutely agreed with it.
No comparison, no harm.
If the guests had never tasted Shi Yaoguang’s chestnut roast chicken, Quan Feifei’s braised fish would definitely seem delicious.
But the problem was,
The guests had tasted the chestnut roast chicken.
With that comparison, Quan Feifei’s braised fish suddenly seemed bland and unappetizing.
Quan Feifei had already resigned herself to it.
Still, she had a glimmer of hope in her heart.
Maybe Shi Yaoguang was just really good at making chestnut roast chicken?
The next day, Quan Feifei got another lesson in humility.
Shi Yaoguang hadn’t only made chestnut roast chicken because it was her only specialty.
For breakfast on the second day, the show provided ingredients and let the guests cook for themselves.
Shi Yaoguang took the gray rabbit she pretended to faint over yesterday and made spicy rabbit cubes.
All the guests ate with great relish.
This further solidified their belief in Shi Yaoguang’s cooking skills.
Then...
Quan Feifei felt like her face was stinging from the figurative slap.
The most embarrassing part for her was when the Little Monk who came begging for food returned halfway through breakfast.
This time, the spicy rabbit cubes had already been nearly finished.
Quan Feifei had also made a dish for breakfast, which she thought was quite good.
Then...
Her dish was still mostly untouched, with just a tiny bit missing.
The Little Monk didn’t even glance at her dish; he reached out and took the almost empty plate of spicy rabbit cubes.
Qiao Yiyi looked at the Little Monk’s hand, instantly bristling.
"Seriously? Seriously? What’s your deal, monk?"
"This spicy rabbit is almost gone, can’t you eat something else?"
"Didn’t you see the other dishes still have so much left?"
Faced with Qiao Yiyi’s questioning, the Little Monk calmly replied, "The Clean Plate Campaign can’t wait."
As he spoke, he scraped the remaining spicy rabbit cubes into his bowl and nonchalantly asked, "Is there any more porridge?"
Everyone: "..."
Well, it seems their perspective was too narrow.
The Little Monk had thick skin and was inevitably going to get teased.
However, while he was being teased, he did reap real benefits.
To be fair, their perspective was indeed too narrow.
The Little Monk’s breakfast consisted of just spicy rabbit cubes and porridge.
As for the other dishes on the table, he didn’t touch a single one of them.
Quan Feifei: "..."
Though it wasn’t targeted at her, she still felt like she’d been publicly humiliated.
Netizens were almost dying of laughter.
Previously, they had a big issue with Quan Feifei being shameless.
Now...
Did they even have an issue anymore?
Hadn’t Quan Feifei already suffered enough?
The Little Monk did a great job!
With the Little Monk around, they didn’t need to personally step in to face-slap her anymore. He was essential for home defense and travel.
The Little Monk, however, didn’t realize that his image had improved so much.
In fact, he hadn’t intended to do anything special.
After all, he was just an innocent Little Monk.
He had no grudge against Quan Feifei and naturally wouldn’t do anything to her on purpose.
The Little Monk wasn’t some recluse; he naturally knew who Shi Yaoguang was and why she was here.
Knowing she would only stay at the Love Cabin for three days before leaving, he couldn’t help but sigh.
He had finally found such a good meal ticket, and he hadn’t had enough to eat yet. How could she just leave?
The Little Monk felt it was all too unfair.
Thus,
He made a decision.
He had to make an effort to stay.
He had no bad intentions.
He just wanted to get some food, that’s all.
After breakfast, the guests suddenly heard the Little Monk speak up.
"Dear patrons, this humble monk has a question. I wonder if it’s appropriate to ask."
Everyone looked at each other, but no one responded.
The Little Monk didn’t seem to need an answer as he continued.
"This humble monk has encountered a tricky problem..."
Everyone looked at each other again but still didn’t reply.
The Little Monk sighed deeply, "I believe you all have a kind heart and won’t ignore someone in need."
Although he was talking to "everyone," his gaze was fixed on Shi Yaoguang.
Shi Yaoguang blinked, looked at the seemingly hurt Little Monk, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What do you mean by that, little master?"
The Little Monk, seeing a glimmer of hope, immediately pouted and said, "This humble monk was expelled from the mountain by my master because my six desires weren’t clean. He said I can only return once I’ve broken my earthly attachments, but I just can’t seem to do it..."
"Can’t break earthly attachments? Hahaha, this monk is killing me with laughter!"
"Is he talking about breaking attachments? More like he can’t let go of his appetite!"
"Chestnut roast chicken is so delicious, spicy rabbit cubes are so delicious, the grand banquet is so delicious... Ignoring so many delicious foods to become a monk, isn’t that such a waste?"
"I don’t care if this monk can break worldly attachments or not, I just want to know if Shi Yaoguang will take him in."
"I don’t think she will."
"I think she will."
"Wanna bet?"
"Sure!"
"For a dime!"
"Two packs of spicy sticks!"
"..."
The live stream bullet comments were buzzing again because of the Little Monk.
Shi Yaoguang, however, remained expressionless as she asked, "Little Master, how do you break your earthly attachments?"
The Little Monk grinned awkwardly, "I didn’t understand what my master meant by breaking earthly attachments at first, but now I know."
He looked at Shi Yaoguang with bright eyes and said excitedly, "Miss Benefactor, you are the key to breaking my earthly attachments!"
Qiao Yiyi’s mouth dropped open, shock written all over her face.
Who could’ve thought?
A love triangle had turned into a love square.
Now it was a quadrangle, right?
Qiao Yiyi’s gaze flitted between Shi Yaoguang and Quan Jinbei, then lingered on Quan Feifei and the Little Monk.
The Little Monk had no other meaning behind his words.
Shi Yaoguang naturally understood.
Quan Jinbei also understood, but...
He didn’t want a monk with uncontrollable desires tangling with Shi Yaoguang.
So he immediately spoke, "Since you need to break earthly attachments, you should go out and gain experience. Clinging to Miss Benefactor doesn’t seem right."
The Little Monk’s eager gaze immediately shifted to him, and he said in a slightly flattering tone, "Dear benefactor, I believe you are a good person. You wouldn’t just sit by and do nothing, would you?"
He said this while blinking as if trying to charm him.
Quan Jinbei rubbed his forehead and sighed, "A monk should behave like a monk."
The Little Monk waved dismissively, unconcerned, "If worse comes to worst, I won’t be a monk anymore. Right now, I have just one wish! I beg Miss Benefactor to fulfill it..."
