694. Refining Potions (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
The little sea monster stared at Mo Fei angrily and waved his paws with dissatisfaction.
As Xu Chengfei saw the little sea monster, he reflexively took back a few steps. This seemingly adorable and cute thing was actually a merciless killing machine. When fighting out of the way in Black Smoke Valley, he saw how this little sea monster killed quite a few masters of Wu family by spitting out a mouthful of black smoke.
“What do you take me as? Always abandoning me to someone else! So irresponsible!” the little sea monster stamped on his feet, while yelling at Mo Fei.
Mo Fei looked at the little sea monster in a rage, blinking innocently, “You really won’t go with him? He looks a bit shabby, but he is a true rich second generation! With him, you’d have endless food and drink, anything you want to eat.”
Xu Chengfei wore a wry smile. A little shabby? Seriously? Do I look that bad?
The little sea monster looked at Mo Fei thoughtfully, and then shifted his eyes to Xu Chengfei.
Xu Chengfei felt kind of creepy, stared by his pair of glittering eyes.
With a light jump, the little sea monster fell on Xu Chengfei’s head.
Xu Chengfei suddenly got frightened, while Mo Fei was satisfied to look at this scene, “One Hundred and Twenty asks you for food. You got to entertain him!”
Xu Chengfei said with a dry smile, “I will.”
Mo Fei nodded and said, “Good. For the record, it’d be horrible if this little thing can’t get full.”
Xu Chengfei nodded gingerly and said, “Got it.”
Soon after Xu Chengfei left, a large number of star herbs was sent to Mo Fei’s potion room.
As long as Lou Yu and others entered the door, they saw the little sea monster was gobbling by the table, while Xu Chengfei was watching jitteringly.
“What’s this little guy doing here?” Asked Lou Yu suspiciously.
“Mo Fei asked me to take care of him for a while.” Xu Chengfei replied.
Lou Yu nodded and said, “I see! Sorry to trouble you then.”
“It’s nothing.” Actually it only troubled the cooks.
“By the way, has there been any news about Shi Miaomiao?” Qian Ye asked Xu Chengfei curiously.
Xu Chengfei smiled wryly and said, “Yeah.”
Qian Ye wide opened his eyes, “Really?”
Xu Chengfei nodded and said, “She probably ran out of money and went out to pawn something. Although she changed her face, my people still recognize her.”
Head turning sideways, Qian Ye said, “Did you go to see her?”
Xu Chengfei shook his head and said, “No, but I heard that she is having some hard time. Now she lives in a basement in the city.”
Shi Miaomiao had been so spoiled since she was little. Her clothes, food and room she lived in, everything was the best. Now she lived in a basement! She was really at the end of his rope now.
“This is karma.” Qian Ye said with schadenfreude.
Xu Chengfei nodded, “Should be.”
Shi Miaomiao had cheated him, and then she got cheated by her lover. The course of nature goes round! Good retribution!
Xu Chengfei’s eyes flashed a slight cold feeling. He heard that the basement landlord Shi Miaomiao rented was an ugly bald man who seemed to have some interest in her.
The door was pushed down while Mo Fei was in the lab refining potions.
Mo Fei lifted the potion in his hand and hurled it at the door.
All five ice potions exploded, and the temperature in the laboratory dropped several degrees abruptly.
The supervisor looked at Mo Fei’s gloomy face and felt a chill in his heart.
“What are you doing here? Don’t you know that a pharmacist isn’t supposed to be disturbed when he is making potions?” said Mo Fei darkly.
The supervisor looked at the Mo Fei’s cold face, suddenly feeling kind of depressed.
“I just came to see how those ice potions are prepared.” He explained.
Mo Fei coldly smiled and said, “How many potions I make, I will directly tell Mr. Xu. It seems to have nothing to do with you.”
The supervisor frowned, giving Mo Fei an unfriendly look, “What you smashed just now is ice potion?”
Mo Fei folded his arms and looked at him. “What if I say yes?”
“Do you have any idea how much ice potions do we need now?” Said the supervisor angrily.
Mo Fei snorted and said, “Since you know there’s a great shortage, you shouldn’t have come here and interfere with my work.”
The supervisor, “You…”
“Mr. Mo, what’s the matter? Why is it so cold here?” Xu Chengfei came in and asked.
Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders and said, “Oh, I got frightened, and broke some ice potions by accident.”
“Frightened?” Xu Chengfei was confused.
Mo Fei glanced toward the supervisor, Xu Chengfei’s face suddenly darkened, “What are you doing here? I will be directly responsible for Mo Fei’s matter.”
The supervisor said awkwardly, “I’m just worried.”
“If you’re worried, think of some other method. Why come to disturb Mo Fei?” Xu Chengfei said angrily.
“I just came to see how things are going on. ”The supervisor looked down and explained awkwardly.
Mo Fei took out three potion boxes from the space ring and said, “Only these for the time being.”
Each potion box had thirty potions, and three potion boxes, that was ninety.
Xu Chengfei looked at Mo Fei with worship, “Mo Fei, you are really something.”
Mo Fei twiddled his fingers. “I’m certainly not an average pharmacist.”
