Xiao Shen sat on top of her shoulders but they couldn"t see him.

Xue Lian was already waiting outside her room and greeted Zi Hua when she came out, she didn"t ask about the three spirit beasts but her gaze lingered for a bit above Zi Hua"s head.

"Come on Doufu Hua"

"Okay Nian Gao" Pa.s.sersby gave confused looks towards the address of the two which earned honey-sweet giggles from them.

"Where should we go today?" They had only explored the east end of the market after yesterday"s adventure, proving how vast the market in Mauve Merchant City was.

"After east is south, so south we go!" They headed off like explorers, well they were explorers, explorers of food and desserts.

The south end was just as lively and instead of desserts it housed many restaurants with foreign delicacies thanks to the inflow of merchants from across the continent.

Zi Hua wasn"t as fond of meals as she was for confectioneries but for the sake of her spirit beast and new found friend she didn"t object.

Although Xiao Shen"s cooking was delicious, he didn"t have much knowledge of outside the Heaven-defying artifact so he could not make local/foreign delicacies from foreign places, it was a good chance for him to potentially learn some new dishes.

"Master, I"ll go look around the kitchen for a bit"

"En" Xiao Shen then hopped off Zi Hua"s shoulders and headed off, for a second, Xue Lian"s gaze darted over to where Xiao Shen was headed off to.

"Let"s order shall we?" Zi Hua got the menu and scanned it, whilst having her three spirit beasts point to those that they want, it wasn"t rare for some rich young ladies and young masters to bring around their contracted beasts to show off so most places allowed them.

"We"ll take..." The waitress had quite the hard time listing down the long list of orders.

"Customers, are you sure you want all this?" The waitress asked, it would be a jackpot for them to order so many dishes, it was equivalent to all the dishes usually ordered in a day and their restaurant was one of the most popular in the south end.

"Yes!" They answered simultaneously.

"Thank you for your order! I apologize in advance but the dishes may take a while"

"No worries" It was only understandable considering how much they had ordered.

The waitress hurriedly scurried off to tell the chefs so that they could prepare them as soon as possible, luckily due to the rich business of the restaurant, they had hired quite a few chefs so that they wouldn"t make their customers wait for too long.

After a little over half an hour, the dishes were delivered gradually one by one, those around them were astonished by the amount of food the two lean ladies could eat, the purple eyed one even gave a bunch to her spirit beasts, usually spirit beasts are seen as tools for battle and replaceable slaves but the young lady was treating hers so well.

Seeing how well Zi Hua treated her spirit beasts, Xue Lian inwardly nodded, her whimsical decision to make this friend was worth it, though she wasn"t aware about her lack of common sense in her way of making friends.

They happily ate and Xiao Hong forgot all about her master"s previous offense.

"It was worth leaving the room after all" Both Xiao Zi and Xiao Bai thought, at this point they were both practically shut ins, although being a hikkomori may be leisurely and fun but they were still "kids" and should be running around "according to norms".
