Absolute Speed ​​of a Certain Anime

"Is it really appropriate?"

Edwards looked at him in surprise, with amazement in his eyes.

She was already in her forties, yet she imitated other little girls and wore a maid outfit, even with twin ponytails. She was very nervous at first, thinking that Jiang Li would definitely laugh at her.

"I never lie!"

Jiang Li said with a solemn oath.

"Yeah, that's good."

Edward breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the hem of his skirt and the ends of his hair.

For some reason, she suddenly became much more confident and didn't mind being stared at by Jiang Li.

"By the way, what are you doing here?"

Jiang Li shook his head and looked around the kitchen pretending to be indifferent.

No, if I keep staring at it, I’m not sure what I might do.

"work to earn a living."

Edelweiss said.

"?"

Jiang Li slowly typed a question mark.

“I don’t have the money of this country.”

Seeing his confusion, Edwards explained.

It turned out to be the case.

She seemed to have been there for several days and needed food and accommodation. Since she didn't bring any money, she had to work.

A penny can make a hero fall. Even the world's strongest swordsman or demon has to worry about his livelihood.

"You are a good person."

Jiang Li sighed suddenly.

"?"

Now it was Edwards' turn to be stunned.

"Why do you say that?"

"If it were me, penniless in a strange place, I would probably talk to those ungrateful thugs and reason with them, or seek financial support from a kind older sister. I probably wouldn't have the patience to work."

Jiang Li looked at Edwards in admiration.

Instead of talking about reason, they come to work.

Not being proud of one's own strength is worthy of Jiang Liqu's admiration.

And during their first two encounters, once he helped him comprehend the Double-Winged Sword, and the second time he helped him break through the demon, neither of them really had the slightest intention to kill him.

"You are the first person to say that to me."

Edwards looked at Jiang Li with a strange look in his eyes.

"Thank you."

No one has ever concluded that she is a good person after seeing her only one or two sides, especially when she appears as an enemy in both sides.

Let’s not talk about Teacher Nanxiang for now, because he is an elder she has known since childhood.

Over the years, she had become accustomed to being treated as the world's most vicious criminal, with people shouting and calling for her to be beaten and killed whenever they saw her. Words like Jiang Li's made her feel unusually warm.

"You're welcome. I'm just telling the truth."

Jiang Li shrugged and said indifferently.

"Ding!"

The sound of the oven was heard at the right moment, and Edwards' attention was immediately diverted to bringing out the baked cookies.

"Did you do this?"

Jiang Li walked closer to take a look. The freshly baked cookies were golden and crispy, with round curves that looked very artistic. They actually looked very good.

"Want to try it?"

As he spoke, Edwards showed a confident expression.

"I'm very particular about desserts!"

I've never seen you show this expression when talking about swordsmanship.

Jiang Li followed suit, picked up a biscuit and threw it into his mouth.

With a crunch, a crisp sound was heard in the mouth. I thought it would be like potato chips, but it was very chewy. The sweet taste emanated from the mouth and filled it up all at once.

"Really delicious!"

Jiang Li was extremely surprised.

It was much more delicious than he had expected, it was completely of royal quality!

"It's a waste of your talent to be a dessert master like you, hiding in a small coffee shop like this!"

Jiang Li was amazed at her craftsmanship.

"Like I said, I'm very particular about desserts. After all, I've been studying desserts since I was a child, and I put much more thought into it than into swordsmanship!"

Seeing this, Edwards crossed his arms in satisfaction, inadvertently highlighting the curve of his chest.

Jiang Li's eyes dimmed slightly.

Although the bikini-like armor showed off her body curves during the battle, the heavy fabric of the maid outfit also made her look quite charming!

"Bah! Why are you here again!"

Jiang Li cursed inwardly and quickly looked away.

"you……"

Edwards was stunned for a moment, and then his cheeks suddenly turned red.

As the world's strongest swordsman, her senses were extremely sharp. Although Jiang Li looked away in time, she still felt a pair of eyes scanning her chest several times.

She subconsciously covered her chest and looked away.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

"Why should I act like a pure little boy?"

Jiang Li thought resentfully in his heart.

Shouldn't actions like looking at someone's breasts and then turning away embarrassedly be exclusive to the male protagonists of slow-witted light novels?

I have always watched it openly!

Why doesn't it work on her?

"Xiao Ai, several customers are urging us to have our desserts ready..."

Another woman dressed in maid outfit walked into the kitchen.

"Oh yeah? Oh yeah? Did I disturb you?"

As soon as she saw the two people whose atmosphere was obviously not right, she immediately covered her mouth and made a funny expression.

This woman, who looks to be in her late thirties, has a plump figure and the unique charm of a mature woman. But looking at her mischievous expression, it is obvious that she is the type who really likes to eat melons.

"That's not the case, Manager. The cookies are already baked. I'll serve them right away!"

Edelweiss spoke very quickly.

As if to relieve the embarrassment, she finished arranging the dishes in less than a second, causing the store manager to exclaim "Oh!" and applaud in admiration.

"Xiao Ai, since you have friends here, take a break. I'll have someone else make the dessert."

The store manager covered her mouth with her hands and her eyes became crescent-shaped while smiling.

"Please take good care of our business, Brother Sword God!"

Ten minutes later, the two of them sat on the red leather chairs in the coffee shop, looking at each other.

"What a passionate store manager..."

Jiang Li couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere, so he took the initiative to speak up to break it.

"You're right, that person is really frustrating."

Edwards echoed, "Actually, I originally applied for a pastry chef position, but that person insisted on me wearing a maid outfit and even having this hairstyle..."

Then he threw the blame to the store manager.

Seeing that he looked as if nothing had happened, she felt a little relieved.

But there is also some dissatisfaction.

Can we just get over what happened just now so easily?

Is this all my value in his heart?

"Xiao Ai, please enjoy your meal slowly."

A waitress brought coffee and dessert and placed them in front of Edelweiss.

"Two servings."

Edwards suddenly spoke up.

"Ok?"

The waitress tilted her head slightly, looking extremely confused.

"Please give me two."

Edelweiss emphasized.

"Ok."

The waitress gave her a strange look.

"I can't believe it. Xiao Ai has such a great figure, but she's actually a big eater."

She muttered this and headed to the kitchen.

She felt that ordinary people could not hear her muttering, but what she didn't know was that the two people in front of her were not ordinary people.

"Actually, my appetite is pretty average."

Edelweiss emphasized this.

She pulled the sugar jar in front of her, picked up a crystal sugar cube and put it into the coffee.

"I know."

Jiang Li nodded obediently.

"Because it's not convenient for me to show up, please help me order."

He has been keeping a low profile and has not appeared in public, otherwise the store would have been packed with fans who had heard the news.

Although he felt a little embarrassed towards the store manager, he didn't want to be treated like a monkey by others.

Having said that, Edelweiss herself is a very beautiful woman and still attracted a lot of attention. The number of customers increased rapidly, and countless customers cast obsessed eyes over here, and some were even thinking about whether to come up and chat with her.

Edwards' mood suddenly improved a little.

It should be said that this person is very considerate of other people's feelings.

She picked up the second sugar cube and put it in the coffee.

"The second portion is here, please enjoy it slowly!"
