Armor: I can only summon the general
Chapter 727 Enemy Visits
In the Happy Dumpling Restaurant, today’s happy dumplings are filled with celery and beef. Minci is holding a bowl and mixing the filling, while Aunt Hui is watching over her.
Previously, at Hua He's suggestion, Aunt Hui began to let Minci take charge of things on her own, and gradually let her complete all the work in the kitchen independently.
Under Aunt Hui's careful training, Minci made rapid progress, moving from cooking at the counter to cooking in the kitchen, and is now able to cook on her own.
However, Minci also has some similarities with Xinnan. She always appears to be lacking in confidence. Even though she has done a good job, she will still pester Aunt Hui to help her check.
Sometimes Aunt Hui had the illusion that Minci was like a member of her own family. No wonder she always regarded Minci as the adult version of Xiaolan.
But since the conversation with Qiao Shefei yesterday, Minci's position in Aunt Hui's heart has changed.
"Minci has been at the Dumpling House for a while now. This girl is good in every way, but does she really have feelings for Xinnan? I can't tell.
She and Xinnan usually get along quite well, and they are no different from siblings. It's not like what Xiao Qiao said, it's really embarrassing.'
Aunt Hui was standing by the stove thinking. She looked at Minci, then turned around and lifted the curtain to look at Xinnan in front of her, but found that Xinnan was not playing the piano, but was staring at a magazine.
'No wonder I haven't heard the piano for a long time. It's good to take a break. The national competition has put too much pressure on him. He has worked hard for so many years since he was a child, and it all depends on this competition.'
Aunt Hui no longer paid attention to Xinnan, but turned to watch Minci prepare the stuffing, and carefully taught her the techniques and skills involved.
Xinnan outside gradually regained his composure and moved his eyes away from the magazine. The parade just passed by the door, leaving a magazine on the ground, which was picked up by Xiaolan who was watching the fun.
Xiaolan originally thought that there would be content that would interest her, but it turned out that the whole article was about Armor Hero. She flipped through two pages, threw it aside, and went upstairs to play with her dolls.
Xinnan had just finished practicing and came to the table to drink water. When he lowered his head, he saw the magazine on the table. The title in bright red font immediately caught his eye.
The magazine used a lot of space to describe how the Flame Dragon Man beat people, and claimed that there was solid evidence, but the CD of the magazine was lost, so Xinnan did not see it with his own eyes.
At this moment, Xinnan's heart was suddenly in turmoil. He had just handed over the Flame Dragon Armor when such a scandal broke out. He couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
"Perhaps I shouldn't have given up my armor and participated in this unnecessary competition."
Xinnan was thinking in his mind, and a long-lost hesitation and struggle appeared on his face, but he quickly suppressed it and replaced it with an indifferent expression.
"I believe in Amice's character. He would never do such a thing. The Shadow Guardians can transform into human forms. They have also transformed in front of me. This must be a conspiracy of the Shadow Realm."
When he thought of this possibility, Xinnan's worries immediately dissipated. He put down the magazine and prepared to practice the piano.
He didn't intend to interfere in this matter. After all, he had already handed over the armor. Let Hua He and the others solve these problems. Compared to the magazine in front of him, he was more worried about the upcoming competition.
This time, Xinnan has to face the champions of three other regions, including Yang Jun, who is known as a "natural pianist", which makes him feel very pressured.
Thinking back to the first time I met Yang Jun, that unfathomable feeling is still vivid in my mind. I am about to compete with him on the same stage, but I still feel a little uneasy.
After thinking quietly for a while, Xinnan put aside all the distracting thoughts in his mind and prepared to continue practicing the piano. While there was still time, he should practice for a while longer. The longer he practiced, the higher his chances of winning.
Not long after, the sound of piano rang out again. Aunt Hui in the kitchen looked outside and saw Xinnan's serious look. Aunt Hui was secretly happy. No matter what the result of this competition was, she was proud of Xinnan.
Aunt Hui turned her gaze back and saw Minci looking up and smiling gently. The two smiled at each other and continued with what they were doing.
…………
At the entrance of the alley opposite the editorial office of the Eight Days Magazine, a mighty motorcycle stopped on the side of the road. Qiao Shefei climbed off the motorcycle, fastened his helmet on the rearview mirror, and strode towards the editorial office.
At this time in the editorial office, Editor-in-Chief Liao was preparing to share the joy of victory with his five subordinates.
Just now, Editor-in-Chief Liao has received feedback from the headquarters that this issue of the magazine has sold out.
About 50,000 copies of this issue of the magazine were printed, and they were sold out in such a short time. They are already considering printing more.
Not only that, the magazine also had considerable sales in several cities around City D, which was undoubtedly the icing on the cake.
Because this magazine was different from previous issues, in order to make the content more convincing, Chief Editor Liao insisted on attaching a CD at the end of each copy, which resulted in a slight increase in the cost of the magazine.
Fortunately, Ba Tian Magazine also has related businesses, and this magazine has not yet exceeded the company's industrial chain, so the cost is still within an acceptable range.
The slight increase in cost resulted in a substantial increase in sales, so the business was profitable in the end, which is why the company actively gave feedback to Editor-in-Chief Liao.
At this time, Editor-in-Chief Liao was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He had just been kicked out of the company, but not long after, he made a brilliant comeback, causing everyone in the company to look up to him.
Although this cannot offset his previous sins, it can bring him a large bonus, which is what he is most concerned about at the moment. As long as there is money to be made, he is willing to let Editor-in-Chief Liao run naked.
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me."
Editor-in-Chief Liao clapped his hands vigorously, and the people in the editorial department immediately quieted down, and everyone turned their eyes to Editor-in-Chief Liao.
“I have good news for you all. The company just called me and said our magazine is selling like hot cakes. The results of our hard work have finally been noticed by the company.
There is even better news. This year, all of us in the D City editorial department will receive an extra month's salary, and two days of annual leave. Where are the applause? Where are the screams? "
"Wow~"
"Ow~"
"Oh hoo~"
After hearing the news from Editor-in-Chief Liao, the other five people became excited. They all clapped loudly, and some even made strange noises as if to cheer someone up.
Everyone was immersed in the joyful atmosphere and was venting their emotions in their own way. At this moment, an uninvited guest suddenly broke in.
Editor-in-Chief Liao was still waving his hands happily. When he saw someone coming in, he looked up at that person.
When Editor-in-Chief Liao saw this, he was startled and his pupils contracted.
"Amice? Why is it you? Didn't you go out of town?"
When Chief Editor Liao thought about how he had to leave the head office because of Amice, the joy on his face disappeared instantly, and he looked at the culprit in front of him with displeasure, who had caused him to fall into this situation.
