Chapter 69 Night Fire!
"So... are you sure you want to treat me to drinks here?"
Standing in front of the Nightfall Tavern, Shi Lan looked surprised.
After leaving the Rose Workshop, Shen Mo said he would keep his promise from that morning and treat her to a drink.
Shi Lan had assumed they were going to a bar or nightclub.
Unexpectedly, Shen Mo brought her to the Nightfall Tavern.
"The wine here is very expensive!" Shi Lan looked at Shen Mo. "Are you sure?"
"Didn't you say you couldn't be fooled with cheap liquor?"
Shen Mo stepped forward, opened the door of the Nightfall Tavern, and waved to Shi Lan:
"Since you're already here, I can afford to treat you to a drink."
Upon hearing this, Shi Lan no longer stood on ceremony and entered the Nightfall Tavern with Shen Mo.
The two of them are now quite relaxed.
The two knives that Shen Mo had were taken back by Rose Workshop.
He spent another 20,000 Alliance Coins to commission a high-quality enchanted longsword.
Although Rose Workshop has ready-made knife blanks, Wang Dongqi said that the subsequent enchanting and other matters would take at least a day to complete.
Shi Lan's heavy armor and battle axe were also left at the Rose Workshop for repair, and it might not even take a day to fix them...
Welcome!
Seeing Shen Mo and Shi Lan enter, Lin Wanshuang leaned on the counter and smiled at Shen Mo:
"Should I use night cream today too?"
"Hmm!" Shen Mo nodded, then pointed at Shi Lan and said, "Give her a drink that suits her."
"Tsk, looks like you've become obsessed with night cream!"
Lin Wanshuang chuckled softly, then looked at Shi Lan, sized her up, and smiled with narrowed eyes:
"You're treating someone to drinks? You'll have to spend money this time."
The wine that suits Shi Lan is not cheap.
"I just wonder when you'll be able to buy me a drink?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Mo remained calm and said:
"This is all yours. You can drink as much as you want. Do you need someone to treat you?"
"How can they be the same!" Lin Wanshuang said affectedly, "The wine you bought tastes much better!"
Shen Mo ignored Lin Wanshuang's deliberate ambiguity and placed the debit card on the counter.
This place is so weird, you have to swipe your card to drink.
Otherwise, ordering a few drinks would take forever to count the money...
Seeing this, Lin Wanshuang said while swiping her card:
"Five cups of night cream, 18000 Alliance Coins."
"A cup of Nightfire, 13000 Alliance Coins..."
How many?!!
Shen Mo frowned, looked up, glanced at Lin Wanshuang, and then at the menu on the wall.
A cup of Night Fire only costs 1300 Alliance Coins.
This is a rip-off!
Shen Mo's lips twitched slightly, suspecting that Lin Wanshuang was deliberately messing with him.
"Stop looking, this is a specially prepared Nightfire!"
Shen Mo flipped his debit card between his fingers, and Lin Wanshuang looked at him with a half-smile, saying:
"How about it? Still want to go? A refund is possible!"
Shi Lan, who was standing to the side, was already shocked by the price of 13000 yuan per glass of wine.
Just as he was about to persuade Shen Mo, he saw Shen Mo wave his hand and say:
"It's just a glass of wine, do it."
Since he had promised Shi Lan, Shen Mo wouldn't be stingy.
And he roughly guessed that this glass of wine must be special...
A moment later, the five cups of night cream that Shen Mo had ordered were brought to the table.
Just as Shen Mo was finishing his five cups of Night Frost, Shi Lan's cup of "Night Fire" was finally ready.
The dark black liquid had a strangely viscous texture.
It was engulfed in dark green flames, like evil fire from the abyss.
"Drink it while it's hot," Lin Wanshuang said to Shi Lan.
But isn't this a bit too "hot"?
Looking at the green flame burning in the wine glass, Shi Lan hesitated.
But thinking of the price of 13000, I gritted my teeth, picked up the glass, and poured it into my mouth...
Shi Lan's face turned visibly red.
Immediately afterwards, veins appeared on his forehead, steam rose from his head, and large beads of sweat seeped out one by one.
After drinking a cup of wine, Shi Lan felt as if she had been drenched in water, her whole body completely soaked.
"Please, have another one!"
Shi Lan gritted her teeth, as if enduring something, and took out her bank card to hand to Lin Wanshuang.
"Okay, just a moment!"
……
-----------------
One hour later...
Shen Mo and Shi Lan walked out of the Nightfall Tavern together.
The two paid a heavy price tonight.
Shen Mo had a total of 67,000 Alliance Coins spent by Lin Wanshuang!
Shi Lan also paid more than 50,000 Alliance Coins.
But both of them gained a lot.
Shen Mo's mental attribute has reached 9 points!
After accumulating experience through two sublimations over several years, Shi Lan has finally undergone her third sublimation today!
"I never expected the drinks at Nightfall Tavern to have such an effect."
Standing on the street, Shi Lan had mixed feelings.
She used to be someone who only came to the Nightclub when she had a reason to.
Every time I come, I drink the cheapest beer.
Little did they know, this small tavern was hiding such a wondrous item...
"Thanks!" Shi Lan put her arm around Shen Mo's shoulder and said sincerely, "I owe you a favor!"
"It's nothing." Shen Mo shook his head.
He thought Shi Lan knew about the Nightfall Tavern's special features.
It now seems that Lin Wanshuang is also selective in her treatment of people.
Without him, Shi Lan would never have been able to drink the Nightfire that allowed her to break through her bottleneck and complete her third sublimation...
So what did she see in me?
Shen Mo was puzzled...
"Come on!" Shi Lan patted Shen Mo's shoulder, interrupting his thoughts. "I'll treat you to a foot bath!"
This time, Shen Mo did not refuse.
He killed a lot of people last night; it'll probably cost him a lot of money to take a holy bath.
Going to the Demon Hunter Association for a massage would be a good way to relax.
However, upon returning to Shangping, Shi Lan did not go to the Demon Hunter Association, but instead went to a luxuriously decorated bathhouse further north...
Shi Lan put her arm around Shen Mo's shoulder and led him into the bathhouse, saying:
"The quality of the technicians here is much higher than that of the Demon Hunter Association."
For just 998, you can experience unbearable pleasure!
Don't get the wrong idea, I'm talking about massage techniques!!!
Shen Mo wanted to refuse, but Shi Lan's grip was too strong.
Besides, we're already here...
Two hours later, the two walked out of the bathhouse feeling relaxed. They found a restaurant nearby, had a meal, and then said their final goodbyes.
Shen Mo carried the packed food back home.
"I'm back!"
Shen's mother opened the door and welcomed Shen Mo in.
He still had a greasy smell about him; it seemed he had gone to deliver medicine again.
Seeing that Shen Huiying was also at home, Shen Mo handed the things to his mother and said:
"The mission ended early today..."
After removing his leather armor and hanging up his bow and arrows, Shen Mo sat back down by the hearth and asked:
"No one's come to cause trouble, right?"
"No, not at all!" Mr. Shen said thoughtfully. "Those gangs are actually behaving better than before."
The Bloodfang Gang regained control of several streets and alleys without causing any fighting.
I heard that most of the Bloodfang Gang's higher-ups are dead, but nobody knows who did it..."
Shen Mo remained expressionless, placed a piece of braised fish belly on Shen Huiying's plate, and then said:
"I'm taking tomorrow off to look at houses!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the whole family looked over, and Shen Huiying said with a look of surprise:
Have you received your relocation permit and residence permit?
"The captain said we can get it tomorrow!"
Shen Mo asked Lin Wanshuang at the Nightfall Tavern and received an affirmative answer.
Upon hearing that they could move out of the shantytown, the atmosphere at home immediately became more lively.
They sat around the fireplace, chatting and laughing, until late into the night before finally going to sleep...
