It's okay for me to bully my wife for the sake of the young master's dignity, right?

Chapter 498 [147] Ninja Shoes and Tea Bricks

Kazama replied to the young master that Koxia was practicing ninjutsu with the new Shiro, and Ichiro thought that they were the two with the worst level.

Shiro is a consumable among the "Nine Ninjas". When one dies, a new one will be recruited. For some reason, every time Shiro is chosen, he likes the nun and integrates into the group very quickly, as if he is an old acquaintance of everyone.

Qin Jiandan couldn't help but suspect that the first Silang also had some supernatural powers that could only be triggered after his death, but... the supernatural power that made his successor like nuns was too boring!

"Xiao Xia should practice more at this level...Send someone to ask her to come to the tea room. I have a gift for you."

"Flower arranging room?" Feng Jian pretended not to hear clearly, like a silver flower bud leaning in the breeze, "Young Master, are you referring to the flower arranging room?"

"Will you die if you don't tell a dirty joke every day?"

There are several teahouses on the first floor of the castle tower, which are used for entertaining guests or daily conversations. You can always find one of them by walking along the wooden corridor.

Compared with the teahouse Qin Jiandan had been to before, the teahouse in front of him had a stronger cyberpunk style.

In addition to metal sound-absorbing screens, low tables, electronic tea sets and tatami mats, there are LED screen scrolls hanging on the wall, dynamically displaying Tang poetry and landscape paintings.

Qin Jiandan took a look and the content of the scroll changed from Li Bai's "Almost Drinking" to the famous Ukiyo-e "The Great Wave off Kanagawa".

"Isn't this painting by Hokusai Katsushika?"

Qin Jiandan pretended to be an expert in front of Fengjian. In fact, due to the nuclear leakage incident that year, "The Great Wave off Kanagawa" was extremely well-known in Huanshi City, and there were many revised versions called "The Great Wave off Kanagawa".

Fengjian ordered the maid to bring a cushion, which was prepared for the young master who did not like kneeling. She herself knelt quietly behind the low table and used the electronic tea set to make tea for Qin Jiandan.

Qin Jiandan cleared his throat and summoned Ichiro the ninja outside the sliding door.

"When I first arrived, I asked the driver to give you the gift for safekeeping. Did you bring it with you?"

"Yes! I have been keeping it strictly in my possession!"

Ichiro said this and placed the two boxes of gifts on the tatami at the door, then retreated respectfully and closed the door from the outside.

Qin Jiandan pushed one of the larger gift boxes towards Fengjian and motioned for him to open it.

After Feng Jian slowly opened it, he found a set of antique high-end tea sets inside, with a compressed tea brick wrapped next to it.

"This is traditional tea set, which may be more suitable for more traditional tea rooms." Qin Jiandan looked around and saw an orange light strip on the edge of the tatami near the tea table, indicating that warmth could be enjoyed in this area.

"As for that tea brick, the seller guaranteed with his life that it is a one-of-a-kind item. Please check the goods. If it is fake, I will deal with him."

Fengjian held up the tea brick with both hands and sniffed it, a rare look of joy appearing on his face.

"Young Master, you have not been deceived. This tea brick was selected from an ancient tree that has already become extinct, and has been aged for many years. If you control the temperature and cook it with first-class water, it will probably emit a unique fragrance."

"Thank you, young master, for giving me such a valuable and unique Christmas gift. I am deeply grateful." Feng Jian was about to lower her upper body, but Qin Jiandan hurriedly stopped her.

"You are not feeling well, so there is no need to be polite."

There were Christmas logos on the wrapping tapes of these gifts, so it was not surprising for Fengjian to guess that they were Christmas gifts.

On the other side, Saburo informed Xiao Xia that the young master was coming to visit, and Xiao Xia had just finished the two-sword training at the ninjutsu training ground.

"Humph, I finally made some money endorsing 'Beautiful Feet Soda', but the young master wants to impose heavy taxes on me... This is marital robbery!"

"Ah, who spit out that gum! Is it you, Shiro? Don't think I'll let you go just because you just joined the company!"

Shiro, who did not wear a mask during the training and had an ordinary face, scratched his hair and said, "Team leader, didn't you vomit on the ground before the training and said it was okay because the servants would clean it up?"

"Yes... yes! That's why the servants didn't come to clean up right away! If you're afraid of flying ninja darts, what kind of member of the Falling Sakura Group are you!"

Sanlang and Silang did not dare to say anything, and both complained in their hearts: Team leader, you looked so cowardly when you were practicing, and now you blame the servants for not daring to come and clean?

So, because some uncivilized person spit extremely sticky bubble gum onto the ground, Xiao Xia's shoe soles were damaged. She tried to rub it off on the wooden stake but failed. She was worried that the young master would be waiting anxiously, so she had to limp to the outside of the tea room.

He pushed the magnetic sliding door open a little and peeked into the room, only to find that Feng Jian had opened the young master's Christmas present and was discussing the correct way to use the tea bricks.

"Young Master!" Xiao Xia took off her shoes at the speed of light, slid out along the tatami silk and slid to Qin Jiandan's side, her face full of flattery. The black silk mesh stockings extended from the bottom of the absolute domain to her feet. After Xiao Xia took off her ninja shoes, the stockings slightly pressed into the flesh on her white and tender feet, which was a strange combination of freshness and restraint.

Having just finished exercising, the ninja girl's feet looked slightly moist, as if she had just walked out of a spring rain, or as if she were a small flower in spring, delicate but full of vitality.

No wonder the Zhang brothers wanted Xiao Xia to be the spokesperson for "Beautiful Feet Soda". Qin Jiandan recalled the occasions when he had grabbed this pair of jade feet.

Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, Qin Jiandan first pushed away Xiaoxia who was sticking to him (stickier than chewing gum), and then gave Xiaoxia the second gift that Ichiro left at the door.

"Well, Christmas is coming. For some reason, I have started sending Christmas gifts in advance. Your gift is a pair of ninja shoes, what is it called..."

Qin Jiandan was stunned for a moment when he said this, because Xiao Xia still had the remnants of the sausage-like lips caused by the spicy food eating competition at the Special Zone market, as if she had undergone some failed lip augmentation surgery.

Originally, after taking Doctor Li's medicine, the sausage mouth condition had improved a little. However, after Xiao Xia came back, he was in a hurry to eat snacks, which caused it to recur. It looked quite funny.

"It's the limited edition 'Shadow Walker'!" Xiao Xia is a connoisseur of goods. She opened the package and grabbed the pair of shoes with great joy. "This is the work of the legendary ninja and legendary designer Ohno Kagezo! Because of a conflict with the company, the 'Shadow Walker' series was sealed by the company and banned from external sales! Where did you buy it, young master?"

"Then don't worry about it." Qin Jiandan pretended to be profound. In fact, this was an accidental encounter at the special zone market. The stall owners were most likely engaged in smuggling activities with their partners in the inner city.

"Master, you are really a timely help! My last pair of shoes just broke because the servant was too lazy. I will put them on right away and show them to you, Master!"

The "Shadow Walker" ninja shoes are one of Ohno Kagezo's representative works. He has always adhered to the design concept of "concealment and agility" and incorporated the stealth and flexibility of ninja culture into shoe design.

This shoe adopts a low-noise design, which can effectively reduce footsteps. It also combines multiple features such as a streamlined shoe body, an intelligent sensing sole, a breathable memory foam insole, etc. It can automatically adjust within a certain range according to the wearer's foot shape and exercise habits, allowing the wearer to move freely in the urban jungle like a ninja.

Xiao Xia put on the Shadow Walker Shoes easily. The automatic adjustment function worked and intelligently reduced the size to the most suitable size for Xiao Xia, which fit her feet very well.

"The soles are so soft and comfortable! How is it? Do you like it, young master?"

The red-haired girl with a ponytail leaned back on the tatami, then deliberately raised one foot, showing it in front of the young master like a ballet pose, the soft ninja shoes and the little feet inside twisting together.

Qin Jiandan pressed his foot down. Feng Jian, who was sitting opposite the coffee table, had already tried to brew some tea bricks.

"Young Master, would you like to try it? Although the process is a little simple, it should taste good."

The loli staff officer took two steps forward on her knees and handed the teacup to Qin Jiandan with both hands.

Xiao Xia did not give up and raised her other foot: "Young Master, would you like to try it? I have some here too..."

Qin Jiandan also pressed his foot down, and just took the tea offered by Fengjian and took a sip.

"It tastes good. But I don't know how to taste tea, so it would be a pity for me to drink it. You drink it slowly, Kazama."

Around the low table, the lit orange lines on the edge of the tatami represented the heating range. Xiao Xia moved inside the orange lines - this was probably the so-called "cyber kotatsu table".

"It's rare that the young master is so thoughtful and gave me such a good gift. I am not an ungrateful person. I will wrap myself with a red ribbon and give myself to the young master as a Christmas gift!"

"No need." Qin Jiandan waved his hand. "Almost everyone will get a gift this time. This is the young master's duty. I represent the guild to thank you for your contributions over the past year."

"Everyone gets a share?" Xiao Xia asked cautiously, "What is Chief Mu Yue's gift? Is it better than mine?"

Qin Jiandan raised his eyebrows slightly: "We are people who are in tune with each other. Tangible gifts are too tacky. I just asked Mu Yue to sing a Merry Christmas song for me."

Xiao Xia gritted her teeth and said, "The Sheriff is working so hard, singing Christmas songs while fucking the young master!"

Qin Jiandan almost spit out the tea in his mouth. Although it was true that they had a great time doing it later, the Christmas song was not meant to be used as an accompaniment!
"If you keep talking nonsense, give me back my ninja shoes!"

Xiao Xia dodged with a playful smile:
"Fufufufu~ Young Master asked for my old shoes. Is there any magical use for them? I can sing Christmas songs for you! They will definitely be more unique than the Sheriff's. I will wrap them with Christmas ribbons and hang bells on them... I can even dress up as a reindeer!"

Ichiro's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door:
"I'm extremely sorry to interrupt the conversation between the young master and the team leader! I just received news that the fish-man nuns supervised by Hachiro and Jiulang were harassed in the 'Neon Smile' bar!"

The fish-man sister is currently under semi-house arrest. She wants to formally join the Night Dragon Society but has not yet been approved. However, she is no longer in a cell and can wander around under supervision and look for clues about the unaccounted criminals in the "student kidnapping case".

Xiao Xia asked curiously, "Isn't Neon Smile a hostess bar? What is Yu Ren doing there? Is he going to ruin our business with his ugliness?"

Ichiro continued to report: "Hachiro and Jiulang can handle ordinary pervert harassment, but this time it's different. The opponent is actually the leader of the Cowboy Team, Minos himself! Minos seems to want to kidnap the fish nun and take her back to be the "fish concubine" of the Minos nation!"
