Chapter 299

Noon, Redwood Avenue, in front of the Masaini family's Rose Manor.

"How beautiful..."

After stepping out of the carriage and looking at the sea of blooming roses in the manor, the elegant middle-aged man with a scholarly air couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart:

"Although the people of the Masaini family are not good things, their manor is a top-notch treasure.

The flowering period of most roses is between April and July. If you want to see so many blooming roses in winter, you can only come to the Masaini family's manor."

"Indeed."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, a young man with a hint of laziness in his eyes nodded in agreement and said with similar emotion:

"I really don't know how they managed it. I installed a greenhouse in my own garden just to see these beautiful flowers a little earlier. Although the flowers in that greenhouse are equally beautiful, compared to this sea of flowers blooming in the cold wind, they are really not worth mentioning."

Hmm? This person installed a greenhouse specifically for growing flowers at home?

Facing the lazy young man who suddenly walked to his side and spoke rashly, the elegant middle-aged man was slightly startled, then initiated a conversation with great interest:

"Excuse me, may I ask how exactly you set up your greenhouse?"

After receiving the lazy young man's surprised look, the elegant middle-aged man explained with some embarrassment:

"To tell you the truth, I once had a similar idea, but the craftsmen who build greenhouses said that the technology is not very mature yet. For ordinary greenhouses, it's no problem to ripen some off-season melons and fruits.

But for flowers that are sensitive to temperature changes, especially roses, the possibility of growing them is not high, and even if they bloom, they won't look good, so I wanted to ask how you managed it."

"Oh, that's not difficult."

After reaching into his pocket and rummaging around twice, the lazy young man smiled and said:

"The technology for greenhouse roses was discovered by a botanist named Li Ang in the Kewangguo Kingdom. It hasn't been popularized yet. If you are interested, I can introduce you to the craftsmen who did the construction for my house."

"Oh my, thank you so much!"

Hearing the lazy young man's words, the elegant middle-aged man, having achieved his wish, couldn't help but rub his palms excitedly, and then continued the conversation eagerly:

"May I ask, who are you?"

"My name is Jie Rui, Jie Rui Bai Ke, a fellow flower lover."

After smiling at the elegant middle-aged man, the lazy young man raised his hand to gently gesture toward the direction of the Rose Manor gate and kindly reminded him:

"Sir, we are all guests after all, it's really not good to keep the host waiting too long... Shall we go in and talk?"

"Yes, yes, yes, that's the logic!"

The middle-aged man, reminded, came back to his senses, nodded repeatedly, and then chatted enthusiastically with this friend who was proficient in roses, walking side by side into the gate of the Rose Manor, while the manservant responsible for carrying the suitcase behind the lazy young man also followed closely.

……

Good fellow, we just mixed in like this?

Looking at the guards who didn't stop them at all behind him, and then looking at the two people communicating eagerly in front of him, Li—the manservant carrying the bag—Ang couldn't help but blink in admiration, his confidence in this rescue operation increasing significantly.

After tearfully expressing his willingness to help, Senior Tang Mu let go of Senior Jie Rui, asked for something to prove his identity, and then let Senior Jie Rui go find Princess Veronika to report to the General Bureau through royal channels, and then reached out and took an apple from the plate on the desk.

And next, it's time to witness a miracle.

After the two of them left the Cleanup Bureau and walked to the main road to catch a ride, the half-green, half-red sour apple had just been finished, and the core was casually thrown onto the street by Senior Tang Mu.

Immediately after, a woman carrying soybeans tripped over the core, and the soybeans in her hand scattered across half the street. The rental carriage preparing to stop

in front of someone else skidded because of the beans all over the street, slid forward two body lengths, and happened to stop right in front of the two of them.

After greeting the shaken coachman and telling him to just drive forward, Senior Tang Mu took him into the carriage, and then when the carriage turned the corner, he reached out the window and grabbed a set of manservant uniforms directly from a clothes rack sticking out from the corner.

And after he took off his coat, changed into the manservant uniform, and got out of the car at Senior Tang Mu's request without knowing why, a person who looked like a butler waiting on the street ran over anxiously.

After complaining about his lateness, the butler-like person stuffed a set of clean formal wear over, demanding he send it to the "Master" quickly, and even paid the carriage fare.

Finally, when the confused coachman drove blindly for a while and turned his head to ask where the two of them wanted to go, Senior Tang Mu pushed the door open and got out, chatted with the elegant middle-aged man at the manor gate, skipped the invitation verification part, and easily brought him into the Rose Manor...

"Let's go, we should go underground. The Chengjin Sect's *** is opened there."

In Li Ang's admiring gaze, after exchanging contact information with the elegant middle-aged man

"Want to eat?"

"..."

"Eat!"

Li Ang, worried about Senior Ai Ma's safety, naturally had no mood to eat apples.

But having just witnessed Senior Tang Mu use only one green apple to inexplicably complete a full set of preparations and mix into the Rose Manor extremely smoothly.

Worried that if he refused, it would destroy the subsequent series of "apple effects," Li Ang reached out and took the apple, imitating Senior Tang Mu's manner and gnawing on it, however...

"Bah! So unlucky!"

Watching Senior Tang Mu, who had a bitter expression after taking a bite and spat out the apple in his mouth, Li Ang couldn't help but blink in surprise, then imitated his manner and spat the fruit flesh in his mouth onto the stairs.

"Hmm?"

After looking at Li Ang with some confusion, Tang Mu asked in surprise:

"Was your apple sour too?"

"Uh... it's quite sweet."

"If it's sweet, why are you spitting it out?"

"..."

Didn't I see you spit out the apple and think that after spitting it out, a bunch of coincidences would follow, allowing us to mix into the ***? It seems I thought too much...

"Oh my!"

Just as Li Ang was grinning awkwardly, wanting to explain his misunderstanding, he heard a panicked scream from behind.

A gorgeously dressed noblewoman, in order to avoid

the apple Li Ang spat on the stairs, accidentally stepped on her own skirt, slipped, and fell onto the stairs, groaning in pain.

And a cat-claw badge pinned to her collar flew out strangely, drawing a beautiful arc in mid-air, and happened to fall into Li Ang's hand...

This is... the Cat Spirit's badge?! Is this woman a believer of the Chengjin Sect?!

Looking at this believer's badge, which is necessary for mixing into the ***, Senior Tang Mu couldn't help but be slightly startled, then looked Li Ang up and down in surprise, and asked thoughtfully:

"Li Ang, are you... always very unlucky?"
