Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

"I understand." Kal'tsit nodded, feeling slightly relieved.

At this moment, a dull mechanical sound was heard, like a sleeping giant. At this moment, the dusty lights above Xiyue and Kal'tsit were also lit, illuminating the dim corridor.

Xiyue turned her head and looked inside the room: "Congratulations, it looks like it should be usable~"

——————Rhode Island·Medical Department·Lounge——————

"Oh, it seems that everyone is quite concerned about this matter~" Xiyue looked at the tablet in her hand, "But why do I feel that there are always some problems with Eureka Live?"

"Oh, Xiyue is watching Eureka too?" Su Su Luo on the side curiously leaned over and looked at the picture on Xiyue's tablet.

In the picture, a pink-haired girl wearing a windbreaker is lively introducing the Fool behind her to the audience, while a large lighthouse shining brightly can be seen in the corner of the picture.

[…As expected, Iberia’s former golden fleet. What a magnificent ship~]

"Alfonso actually let so many people watch his boat." Xiyue looked at the picture and smiled, "Well, no, maybe this is also out of some kind of pride?"

[It is said that when this ship entered the port, it was emitting dazzling golden light. What? Now we can't see the golden light? ]

[Maybe the light from the lighthouse shone on it, and people saw it wrongly? Speaking of lighthouses, the Great Lighthouse of Glenfarlow is now also a very good tourist check-in spot~]

"Is this Iberia?" Susulo looked at the screen. "I heard that country is next to the sea. It looks like a good place to travel."

"What's wrong, Su Su Luo?" Xiyue raised her head and looked at Su Su Luo with a smile on her face, "Didn't you have enough fun playing in the water last time you went to Xiosta?"

"And I remember you went on a business trip to Xiosta some time ago, didn't you?"

"I went on a business trip." Su Su Luo looked at Xi Yue, "But it was because of work. I don't have time to be lazy."

"And when I was on a business trip, didn't Xiyue also go on a business trip with Dr. Kal'tsit? How did Dr. Xiyue know that I went to Xiosta?"

"Well~" Xiyue turned her head to look at Furong who had turned away, "I found out about it during a casual conversation a few days ago."

"I see." Su Su Luo looked up at Furong, "Okay, Furong, I'm not mad at you. We were just chatting. Why are you feeling guilty?"

Hearing Su Su Luo's voice, Furong scratched her head: "Hey, ah, it's already noon, I'm going to help in the cafeteria, you two should rest too~"

After saying that, Furong immediately tidied up a little and went out.

"Really? I've already said it. I'm not angry." Su Su Luo shook his head helplessly, and then suddenly realized something, "Wait, where did Furong say she was going to help?"

"Don't go to the cafeteria today." Xiyue patted Su Su Luo's shoulder and stood up. "It's almost noon, and I have to go back to cook for those who eat white rice. Miss Su Su Luo can go and rest too."

"Alas..." Su Su Luo shook his head helplessly, "The cafeteria has more than just one window. But then again, has Miss Xiyue finally given up on teaching Furong how to cook?"

"I have done what I can." Xiyue sighed and put away the tablet. "But the food made by Miss Furong still tastes the same. I have no choice but to let time slowly adjust."

"As for the cafeteria, I think if there are long queues at the surrounding windows but no one at Furong's window, Miss Furong will be very upset, right?"

"I think Furong probably doesn't care about this kind of thing anymore." Su Sunuo also took off his white coat. "After all, it's always like this. Furong may have gotten used to it."

"Maybe~" Xiyue smiled, "Then Miss Su Su Luo, see you in the afternoon."

"Miss Xiyue, see you this afternoon."

——————Rhode Island·Accommodation Area·Yuzuki's Room——————

"Oh." Xiyue opened the door and looked at the situation in the room. "Is it in the bamboo forest style today? It feels like a leisurely scholar."

At this time, on the walls of Xiyue's room, there were a large number of bamboo forests painted in ink painting style, and many decorations were also changed to bamboo tube style to suit the occasion.

Xiyue looked at a painting facing her room: "I think it's better to stick to one style. When you write like this, I feel like I'm opening a blind box in my room every day."

"........."

"Why aren't you talking?" Xiyue walked to the front of the painting. "I don't mean to blame you. Besides, it's time to eat, come out, don't stay at home."

"..."

"Hmm?" Xiyue looked at the silent words and after a while, "Hmm... Oh, I was wondering why you ignored me, it turns out you were drawing."

Xiyue took a step back slightly, and as she stepped back, a layer of water fell off her body, forming an extremely illusory human figure.

——————Studio in the painting——————

A portrait of Xiyue with closed eyes hanging on the wall of the studio suddenly opened its eyes, and then the portrait actually flew off the scroll.

"Xi." Xiyue looked at Xi who was still drawing at the desk, "It's noon, time to eat, stop drawing. You complained of back pain a few days ago, and now it's happening again."

"Woo!" Xi, who was still painting, suddenly trembled. He quickly put the paintbrush in his hand on the shelf beside him, stood up, and looked back at Xiyue.

"Okay, I'll be right away."

"Your back pain won't heal if you keep going like this." Xiyue put her hands on her waist, "You were complaining about your back pain a few days ago."

"Woo..." Xi shrank her neck. She now felt that Xiyue was more and more like Sister Shu, but in some ways she was also a little scarier than Sister Shu.

However, Xiyue is easier to deal with than Sister Shu.

"I know I was wrong..." Xi immediately bowed her head and apologized to Xiyue. She knew that as long as she gave in to Xiyue and apologized, Xiyue would generally not pursue the matter further for such a small matter.

Until the next time, Xiyue noticed a similar thing again, and was pointed out twice again, and then apologized again, highlighting one, actively apologizing, and not changing despite repeated warnings.

It is worth mentioning that this set of formal guidelines was told to Xi by an angel. It should be used accurately every time. Of course, it cannot be repeated too many times, otherwise Xiyue might really get angry.

Although Xiyue is certainly reluctant to carry out any physical punishment, Xiyue's other methods of punishment are also impressive enough.

As expected, seeing that Xi had apologized, Xiyue immediately put away her angry expression and rubbed Xi's head helplessly: "Okay, now go out and wash your hands and prepare for dinner, understand?"

"Yeah." Xi nodded immediately, "I'll be out right away."

"Okay." Xiyue patted Xi's head, turned around and put the portrait back on the scroll.

——————Xiyue’s Room——————

The surface of the scroll began to ripple like water waves, and then Xi's head popped out from it.

After looking around, Xi looked at Xiyue who was already busy in the kitchen, and came out of the scroll with some effort.

"Well, this painting seems a little too small." Xi pulled his feet out of the painting. "Well, if it wants to match the ink-and-wash bamboo forest..."

"I think you can leave my room alone for a while~" Xiyue turned her head and looked at Xi who was thinking, "I've only been back for seven days, and I've seen seven completely different decoration styles."

"Every time I come back from going out and open the door, I feel like I'm opening a blind box."

"I, I'm just experimenting..." Xi turned her head away, "At the moment, the ink-and-wash bamboo forest painting style doesn't seem to be very suitable for Miss Xiyue."

"I don't care." Xiyue turned back and continued to cut the tomatoes in her hand, "Just don't have too much fun. Last time, Hong thought she walked into the wrong room."

"Mom obviously thought she had walked into the wrong room, didn't she?" Hong's voice came from the door. As soon as she came in, she heard her mother talking about her, "How could you only talk about me?"

"Oh~" Xiyue heard Hong's voice and continued to cut the vegetables in her hand without changing her expression, "Hong is back? How is business today?"

"Not bad~" When this was mentioned, Hong immediately dropped the previous topic, "But I didn't get to touch many comfortable tails today."

"Hong, don't you think there's something wrong with what you said~" Behind Hong, the voice of the Angel of Exiah came over, "But it seems that Hong, your real purpose for opening that beauty salon is this."

"Yeah." Texas, who was following behind Exia, bit off the pocky in his mouth, "But Red's cooking skills are really amazing."

During the days when Hong's beauty salon officially opened, Texas also went there to show his support. However, Texas was already aware of Hong's craftsmanship, so he was not particularly surprised.

"Oh, by the way~" Angel pushed a person into the room, "Xiyue, look who's here to visit?"

"Hmm?" Xiyue turned her head to look at the direction of the gate. After seeing who was coming, she raised her eyebrows. "Good afternoon. It's been a while since we last met, Miss Mostima."

"Good afternoon~" Mostima waved his hand, "It's been a while since I last saw you, Miss Xiyue."

"Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, I still want to say hello, but here is a letter you need to sign for~"

"A letter?" Xiyue turned her head in confusion, "And it's for me?"

Chapter 190: Invitation of the Year

"Eh?" Before Mastema could reply, the Archangel beside him looked at Mastema in surprise, "How come I didn't know? I thought you were just a guest."

"Because there's no point in telling you, Xiaole~" Mostima shrugged at the Archangel, "This letter has to be received by Miss Xiyue in person."

After finishing, Mostima casually took out a letter from the inner pocket of his windbreaker.

Xiyue looked at the chili pepper pattern on the letter and raised her eyebrows: "Who sent this?"

"I don't know~" Mostima shrugged, "It seems that the boss got it from a friend, and then the boss asked me to bring it to you when I came to Rhodes Island."

"By the way." Xiyue took the letter, "It's obviously an important matter, why are you so casual about it?"

Xiyue shook her head helplessly, but she also knew the emperor's character: "Okay, it's in line with the boss's previous practices."

But Xiyue was not in a hurry to open the letter. Since the emperor had asked Mostima to deliver it when he came to Rhodes Island, it meant that the matter was not that urgent, so...

Xiyue put the letter on the cabinet beside her: "Come on, don't worry about so much, eat first."

"Wash your hands if you need to, and then sit down at the table."

Xi, who was standing by, leaned over to take a look at the letter that Xiyue had placed on the table. However, she curled her lips when she saw the pattern on it.

Who else would use this icon as an identity marker? It must be this guy Nian, but then again, this guy Nian has indeed disappeared for a long time.

"This time I sent a letter back..." Xi looked at the letter, "It's not sent directly back to Rhodes Island, what on earth is this guy thinking?"

"Okay, don't think about it." Xiyue tapped Xi's head gently, "Let's eat first. Nian hasn't sent this letter directly, or come back to talk about this directly."

"It proves that this matter is not too serious. It's okay to come and see it later."

"Hmm." Xi touched his head, "But I always feel a little uneasy."

"Don't worry." Xiyue touched Xi's head. "I'm here. Nothing will happen. Let's eat first. Eating is the most important thing."

"Well."

"Oh, so it's Nian?" After listening to the conversation between these people, Angel Neng also realized who sent the letter, "What could it be?"

"Anyway, it won't be a good thing." Xi curled her lips. "Eight out of ten things related to that guy are bad things, and the remaining two good things are mostly done in the form of pranks."

"Oh, it seems that the relationship between Miss Xi and Miss Nian..." Mostima touched his chin, with a slight smile on his face, "It feels a bit like a pair of bickering lovers."

"Who is her enemy?" After hearing Mostima's words, Xi immediately reacted, "She's always looking for trouble and running around everywhere..."

Mostima looked at Xi's reaction with a smile. They looked like a pair of good sisters, the kind that would trick each other. However, it seemed that Miss Nian liked Miss Xi more.

"Are you still chatting here?" Xiyue put the food on the table, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"Oh, by the way, last time Mostima left in a hurry without tasting my cooking, so today I can have a good taste of it."

"Then I will obey your command~" Mostima smiled. Although he did not reply to Angelica's messages often, Angelica would send Mostima's work account at Penguin Logistics every day to share some things.

This naturally includes the meals that Xiyue prepares for them every day. Every day, when Angel thinks of it, he will take two photos and send them to Mostima's work account.

Therefore, Mostima had actually been looking forward to the taste of the food prepared by Xiyue, but he just never had the time. This was also one of the reasons why he chose such a time to come here today.

"You won't be disappointed." Xiyue smiled at Mastema, then looked out the door, "But is the other friend okay?"

Mostima was slightly shocked when she heard Xiyue's words, and then shook her head decisively: "No need to worry, she will find food by herself~"

"Hmm?" Exia tilted her head and looked at Mostima, then ran to the door in two steps and looked outside, but there was no one there.

"What were you talking about just now?" Angelus turned around and looked at Mastema and Xiyue, "Was there anyone outside just now?"

"Don't worry about it." Mostima walked forward and pulled Archangel back. "Okay, let's eat. You posted so many pictures on my account. I've wanted to try it for a long time~"

------------

"Oh, Miss Xiyue's cooking skills are really good~" Mostima ate the food on the table elegantly, but not slowly at all.

"Ms. Mostima, as long as you like it." Xiyue smiled, but glanced at the Angel who had been drinking water. "Angel can't eat spicy food, so put down your chopsticks. It's not good for your stomach to eat one mouthful of rice and one mouthful of water."

"Hehe~" Angel of Exo laughed and put down the water cup, "Xiyue, where did you get this chili? It's spicy, but very flavorful. I can't stop eating it once I start."

"Oh, this pepper is the dried pepper I gave him last year," Xiyue picked up a piece of meat and threw it into her mouth, "I made hot pot for him last time, and there was a little left, so I just threw it into my clothes."

"Then I just discovered it recently. If it's been stored for a long time, I'll use it right away."

"Oh, that." The corner of Angel's mouth twitched slightly. She remembered the bright red smoke that was visible to the naked eye when she cooked hot pot last time.

"She's the only one who likes to eat spicy food every day." Xi rolled her eyes. "Luckily he's not here, otherwise most of the dishes on the table would be spicy."

"It's okay." Xiyue touched Xi's head, "The cooking power is in my hands. I decide what dishes to cook~"

"So don't mess with Xiyue~" The Angel of Power patted Xiyue's shoulder, "Otherwise Xiyue will make you feel how painful it is to have a table full of delicious dishes but not want to eat any of them."

"It's impossible to do that." Xiyue tapped the head of the Angel. "If this situation really happens, I think I can cure the picky eating problem."

"Hehe~"

——————Rhode Island·Accommodation Area·Corridor——————

"Sure enough, the food at the window where there's no one lining up tastes terrible." Fiammetta stuck out her tongue. "This vegetable juice tastes really weird."

"Oh, you're here~" Mostima walked over to Fiammetta with a small bag, "Well, what's this blue drink of yours?"
