Chapter 28: The New Security Guard!

He Xiaoying’s quiet change in rating didn’t escape the eyes of her fans.

The comment section got pretty lively.

“Looks like that dirt you ate yesterday really got to you!”

“I was only mildly interested, but this sudden change of heart makes me want to try it myself.”

“Suddenly, I really want to become one of Feifei’s Bakery’s ‘fated ones’, especially if I could be Feifei’s ‘fated one’.”

“Girl, your abacus beads are practically hitting me in the face!”

Some fans even turned He Xiaoying’s live stream clips into reaction images:

[Today I’m live-streaming eating dirt.jpg]

[This flavor is kinda addictive.jpg]

The moment when Yun Tao greeted everyone while holding Tan Xue was also turned into a reaction image:

[Your cutie just popped up.jpg]

It was super useful and inexplicably became a hit in the local reaction image scene.

And it also helped boost the popularity of the Earth Toast. He Xiaoying’s review let everyone know that the toast only had an earthy aroma in the first bite, and the overall taste was actually pretty good, even profound.

The “hidden item” and “only sold to the fated ones” sounded particularly appealing, and many customers came to see if they were the “fated ones.”

At first, everyone thought it was just a gimmick, but they didn’t expect the boss to really only sell it to those who needed it.

Even if they couldn’t buy the Earth Toast, customers weren’t discouraged. Getting a scallion pork floss cake or a Worry-Free Tiramisu wasn’t a bad deal either!

Some customers with low spiritual energy came to try the Earth Toast, and they actually received the Earth God’s spiritual protection, getting rid of some of their troubles. They were pleasantly surprised and grateful, giving the Earth Toast a hundred percent satisfaction.

A week after the two new products were launched, the system declared the mission complete!

[Mission completed, rewards have been distributed!]

[Upgraded to Level 5 (0/1000 Shanhai Points), unlocked Shanhai resource: Sand Pear!]

[Shanhai Ingredient: Sand Pear Origin: Kunlun Mountain Farm Level: SR Effect: Controls water, prevents drowning when eaten. Price: 2 Shanhai Coins/pound]

Yun Tao cheered quietly, “Finally, some fruit! I used to love Sand Pears.”

Sand Pear trees were especially beautiful when they bloomed, like yellow clouds hanging on the branches, and the fruit was like plums in the human world, without pits. Eating this fruit was like being blessed by the water god, instantly learning how to swim and becoming an excellent swimmer.

Most importantly, it was super delicious!

Thinking of the taste of Sand Pears, Yun Tao’s mouth started watering. This kind of sweet and sour fruit was irresistible.

Yun Tao wiped his mouth, “Let’s draw cards first.”

[Okay, host.]

The system now had a deep understanding of Yun Tao’s strength and didn’t say much.

Yun Tao had three Shanhai Vouchers, and like last time, he pulled from three card pools at the same time.

This time, he got two cards, one from the item card pool and one from the employee card pool. The special card pool used action to tell Yun Tao that it, the special card pool, really had a low drop rate!

[Shanhai Item Card: Infinite Energy Transforming Vehicle

Level: SR

Description: Infinite energy, can transform into any form.]

Yun Tao: “This is good, very practical. There’s no parking space right now, let’s turn it into an electric scooter for now. I’ll tell Aunt Ying it was a prize from a lottery!”

He wasn’t lying, drawing cards was similar to a lottery.

Yun Tao opened the other card.

[Shanhai Employee Card: Heavenly Dog

Level: SR

Origin: Yin Mountain

Feature: Can ward off misfortune.

Note: Provide food and lodging for the Heavenly Dog and pay wages on time (internship period: 1600 yuan per month).]

“It’s a Heavenly Dog, pretty cute. Heavenly Dogs can help people turn bad luck into good, perfect for being our shop’s security guard.” Yun Tao muttered to himself, “Let it live in the basement room.”

Yun Tao immediately summoned the Heavenly Dog.

After a familiar flash of light, a little Heavenly Dog appeared in Yun Tao’s room. The little Heavenly Dog looked like it had just been weaned, it was really tiny. Its head was white, it had big ears and big eyes, and its body looked like a tabby cat.

Yun Tao stared at the little Heavenly Dog, “How can it be our security guard when it’s so small!”

It was sent to work right after being weaned? Unscrupulous system!

System: I’m offline, do not disturb!

The little Heavenly Dog looked at Yun Tao shyly for a moment, then stumbled over to him and rubbed its head against his little hand, “Mew~”

So soft!

Yun Tao carefully picked up the little Heavenly Dog and bared his tiger teeth, “Okay, okay, if we encounter bad people, you’ll just be super cute and make them surrender!”

The little Heavenly Dog bared its teeth like him, showing a gap-toothed smile, “Mew mew!”

Yun Tao: “…You like saying mew mew so much, let’s call you Xiao Wu.”

The little Heavenly Dog seemed to know it had a name, its eyes curved happily, and the next second, it tilted its head and fell asleep in Yun Tao’s arms.

It was so small, Yun Tao couldn’t let it sleep in the basement by itself, but he was still a kid himself, he didn’t know how to take care of a baby!

Yun Tao took the little Heavenly Dog to the next room. Tai Sui and Lin Xiao were playing games. As soon as Yun Tao entered, Tai Sui sensed him and asked without looking up, “What?”

“Stop playing games, I have an important task for you!”

Yun Tao’s voice was serious, and Tai Sui looked up to see a little Heavenly Dog cub handed to him.

Tai Sui was startled and quickly threw his phone aside, taking the little Heavenly Dog from his hands, “Where did you pick this up?”

Yun Tao: “It’s called Xiao Wu, our new security guard.”

Tai Sui: ?

Lin Xiao jumped down from the bunk bed and leaned in for a closer look, clicking his tongue, “Has this security guard been weaned?”

Yun Tao: “I don’t know.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the little Heavenly Dog rolled over in Tai Sui’s hands, burying its face, curled up in a ball, and hooked its fluffy tail around Tai Sui’s wrist.

Lin Xiao: “So cute!”

Tai Sui looked at the little Heavenly Dog, then at Lin Xiao, “Solved it, you’re also a dog, this is your cub, you take care of it.”

Lin Xiao ‘the fox’: ?

Although the little Heavenly Dog was called a Heavenly Dog, it looked more like a cat. He was a canine, but he was a fox, not a real dog!

Under the two burning gazes, Lin Xiao said weakly, “I’ll try.”

He carried the little Heavenly Dog to the bunk bed and placed it in his fox den, licking its fur. The little Heavenly Dog rolled over and hugged the fox’s big tail with its paws, continuing to snore.
