Chapter 279

"No… um… if it's the boss, then there's no problem."

After saying that, Noel lowered her head, not quite daring to look at Han Feng.

Seeing the little maid's state, Han Feng smiled and didn't continue to tease her.

Otherwise, he felt she was almost so shy she wouldn't be able to face anyone.

"What are you thinking? I was just joking with you, hurry up and eat."

"Eh? The boss really was teasing me?"

Noel breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, thank goodness, the boss was just joking.

If she really had to warm his bed, she would be extremely embarrassed.

Um… but why is there a tiny bit of regret in her heart?

Han Feng smiled and said nothing more.

Of course, it was just teasing.

Noel is only 14 years old right now!

How could he possibly have that kind of thought?!

At the very least, he'd have to raise her for a few more years!

After this little teasing incident, the two of them became much closer.

For a while, they chatted and laughed, and the atmosphere of eating and drinking livened up.

At this point, Han Feng also materialized a bottle of some Moutai liquor.

A drink was just perfect for this atmosphere.

"Boss, what are you drinking? Water?"

Watching Han Feng drink cup after cup, Noel grew a little curious.

"This is liquor from my hometown, the taste isn't bad."

Han Feng said with a smile.

"It's actually liquor from the boss's hometown?"

Noel was a little surprised.

Like many others, she was very curious about her boss's origins.

After all, someone who could open such a miraculous comic shop must have extraordinary origins.

And now there's actually liquor from the boss's hometown!

So should she try a sip?

But she hasn't reached the age to drink yet, has she?!

But she should be the first person to come into contact with liquor from the boss's hometown, right?

If she didn't drink, that would be too much of a shame.

Um… then she'll just have a small cup.

Noel quickly made up her mind.

"Can I have a cup?"

Hearing Noel's request, Han Feng's expression turned strange.

He remembered that in Noel's voice lines, she had said to keep the mystery of alcohol until she came of age.

But since she had brought it up herself, Han Feng naturally wouldn't refuse,

and directly poured her a full cup.

Heh, the taste of baijiu would definitely leave a lifelong impression on her!

"If the boss hadn't said so, I would have thought it was water."

Taking the liquor that Boss Han handed over, Noel examined it curiously.

She had never seen such clear, transparent liquor before.

And, it seemed to have a slight spicy kick?

But it should be fine, right?

The boss seemed to have downed it in one gulp just now, so it probably wasn't a big deal.

Thinking of this, Noel also imitated him and gulped it down in one go.

"Ah… so spicy!"

After drinking it, Noel quickly couldn't take it anymore.

She felt her throat burning hot.

And not just that, her face also flushed red all at once.

This wasn't from shyness, but caused by the liquor just now.

"Eh? Boss, why are you getting all blurry? There are two of you now?"

Noel felt her head getting a bit dizzy, as if she was about to pass out.

"Baijiu isn't meant to be drunk like that, aren't you a bit too brave?"

Han Feng couldn't help but find it a little funny.

Just now, he had thought Noel would sip it little by little.

Who knew she was so bold, downing it all in one go.

Now, this situation was clearly the look of being drunk.

"This liquor… is… is amazing!"

GLOSSARY

【Han Feng】

Noel's mind could no longer think clearly.

After muttering those words drowsily, she fainted outright.

"So her alcohol tolerance is this weak."

Han Feng found it slightly amusing.

She probably won't touch alcohol again for a long time.

With the little maid unconscious, Han Feng naturally couldn't just leave her like that.

He picked her up and carried her back to her room on the second floor.

Afterward, Han Feng ate something simple, and the celebration ended.

At this moment,

Han Feng looked again at the system panel.

【Host: Han Feng】

"I already have eleven manga now; tomorrow I'll probably get even more."

Han Feng thought to himself.

After all, he had already opened a branch store in Liyue.

The number of customers would definitely increase.

Thinking of the familiar characters from Liyue, Han Feng smiled faintly.

I wonder what expressions they'd make when they see these manga?
