I'm a male god in Liyue

She began to try to identify and analyze the spices contained in the flavor.

"The Sumeru Rose, Cecilia Flower..."

Ying'er's expression gradually became conflicted. She could only find a small part of it, and the remaining fragrance was extremely unfamiliar. She had no recollection of it at all.

"What exactly are the ingredients..."

Just as Ying'er was deep in thought, she heard a soft knock on the door.

She paused for a moment, then got up to open the door.

Standing outside the door was a small but enormous giant tree.

"Miss Xia Ci?"

"Miss Ying'er."

"Miss Xia Ci, is there something you need my help with that you came to see me so late?"

"No, I just couldn't sleep, and I happened to see that your room light was still on, so I thought I'd come over and chat with you, is that alright?"

"Of course, Miss Xia, please come in."

The Great Tree King entered Ying'er's room and saw various perfumery tools and several thick books on the table.

"Is Miss Ying'er very interested in spices?"

"Ah."

"No wonder there are so many tools here for making perfume."

"The tools used to make perfume are very rare nowadays, how come Miss Xia Ci recognizes them?"

"I happen to know a little bit about it."

Ying'er was somewhat surprised, but she immediately realized that the boss was a master of perfumery and would definitely be able to make perfume balms. As his cousin, Xia Ci had lived by his side since childhood, so it was normal for her to be familiar with these tools.

The Great Compassion Tree King glanced at her, noticing the change in her expression, and seemed to know what she was thinking. He simply chuckled, then walked to the table, looked at one of the small bottles, and said, "This should contain the [Hundred Flower Ointment], right?"

"Yes, how did you know?"

"I can smell it in the air."

"But the bottle was clearly plugged..."

"Although the bottle was sealed, a faint smell still leaked out. Ordinary people might not be able to smell it, but I could."

Ying'er paused, her eyes widening in surprise once more.

"Miss Xia Ci's sense of smell is truly remarkable!"

The Great Tree King smiled and lowered his head: "This Hundred Flowers Perfume Balm was prepared by Miss Ying'er herself, wasn't it?"

"Ah."

"The original recipe was probably incomplete; you completed it yourself."

"Correct."

"No wonder it tastes so close to the real 'Hundred Flowers Ointment'."

"Approaching? What does Miss Xia Ci mean?"

"The recipe you provided is inaccurate. The problem lies in the proportions of several spices, and it's also missing pearl powder..."

The Great Tree King patiently pointed out Ying'er's mistakes and then carefully explained the solutions to her. In the process, she also took the opportunity to explain some profound knowledge about the proportions of spices.

The more Ying'er listened, the more alarmed and impressed she became.

The little girl in front of me, who looks about the same age as Yao Yao, is actually a master of spices!

Are all members of the Xia family geniuses?

After his public display of divine power ended, the Great Compassion Tree King waved his hand, glanced at the convinced Ying'er, and went back to sleep contentedly.

Ying'er escorted her to the door, then quickly ran back to the table, took out paper and pen, and began frantically taking notes.

Her eyes were very bright, sparkling with relief.

Changing jobs was definitely a wise choice!

Xia Zhi's room.

After completing his daily allowance payment, he took out the master key and opened a door in the wall.

Shen He was sitting on the bed, carefully applying nail polish to his fingers.

Her fingers had been fully coated with makeup this morning, but during her massage tonight, the makeup was accidentally rubbed off, so she has to touch it up again.

It's a good time to change to a new color.

Purple.

It's just a bit inconvenient to paint my own nails, so it's very slow.

"Still applying it?"

"There's still one hand that hasn't been painted."

"Let me help you."

"it is good."

Xia Zhi walked over, sat down on the edge of the bed, took the tools from her hand, and slowly painted her nails.

Shen He raised his head slightly, looked at his profile as he focused on his work, and his eyes softened. He said softly, "You came early today."

"miss you."

"Hmm, it's purple, do you like it?"

"I like it; it has a mature and glamorous feel to it."

Should I paint my toenails?

"You can apply it too."

"You help me apply it."

"it is good."

Shen He has beautiful legs and clean, pretty toenails.

Not only does it have no odor, but it also retains a hint of essential oil fragrance.

Even though Xia Zhi wasn't a leg fetishist, he still had an urge to hold it in his hands and play with it carefully.

"Don't move."

"It's a little itchy."

"It'll be applied in no time."

"Ah."

"All right."

"Let's go."

"Wait a minute, bring your uniform too, the summer one."

"I'll get it."

After putting on their uniforms, the two returned to Xia Zhi's room.

It's not for any other reason, it's just that the beds in this room are bigger.

Shen He naturally changed into his summer uniform and came over to cuddle with him on the bed.

Xia Zhi kissed her, then took out a black bead and showed it to her.

"Boss, what is this?"

"【Silence Bead】."

"[Silence Bead]?"

"It's just a small gadget, not very useful, but it can prevent sound from spreading out in a small area, achieving a silencing effect."

Shen He blinked, as if he understood something.

"That's it."

"Here, let me tie it on your wrist."

"Ah."

Then there is no more then.

To be honest, the summer uniform is nice, but the quality isn't very good. It's nowhere near as good as the [Light Mist Silk] outfit from last night, especially the black stockings, which tore easily with just a couple of pulls.

However, the effect of the [Silence Bead] is excellent.
