Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Boss, Please Wait, I’d Like to Buy a Jianbing

"It’s fine," she said.

This mission was a huge undertaking. She couldn’t possibly complete it with just the villagers.

Since she had to wait for her other customers anyway, Lu Wu wasn’t bothered by whether the villagers spent money at her stall.

Good wine needs no bush, as they say. For her, it was good crepes fear no distance.

She was very laid-back about it.

Then again... she had so many customers, yet none of them had found her yet.

Boss Lu and her customers were always playing this little game of hide-and-seek. The clueless "seekers" were currently going crazy on One World Communication.

"Where’s Boss Lu? I had a whole Boss Lu, and now she’s gone!"

"Didn’t someone say Boss Lu was setting up her stall again? It’s been days, has no one caught her yet?"

"Gods, don’t tell me Boss Lu ran off into some Secret Realm again!"

Many customers were roaring in frustration.

Of course, there were also some bad apples trying to stir up trouble.

"Heh heh, she probably bragged too much and got called out for being a fraud. Now she’s too scared to show her face."

"Exactly! What ’Boss Lu’? Pulling all these stunts with her stall, she’s got some nerve."

"People like her are nothing to worry about."

The above comments were from the grudge-holding Beast Taming Sect.

Ever since their sect had been bombed three times, the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect had more or less figured out how unwelcome they were.

But not only did they not reflect on their own actions, they doubled down and completely let themselves go.

This manifested as them transforming into trolls on One World Communication, dedicated to flaming anyone who had a grudge against the Beast Taming Sect.

As someone who had publicly humiliated the Beast Taming Sect, Lu Wu naturally received their "special attention."

In the thread searching for her whereabouts, the Beast Taming Sect disciples worked together, trying their best to ruin Lu Wu’s reputation.

But the Bun Sect of today was no longer the small, scrappy group from Xiaohe Town.

Having grown to a considerable size, the Bun Sect members rallied the troops, leading numerous other customers in a counterattack against the Beast Taming Sect.

"Yoo-hoo, talk about sour grapes. A so-called ’great sect’ with hundreds of years of history can’t even compete with a single bowl of Boss Lu’s ice powder. I bet getting humiliated like that really got you triggered."

"Shhh... let’s give them some face. We’ll just talk about it quietly amongst ourselves."

"As someone who has actually eaten Boss Lu’s food, I can guarantee her skills are the best. If you don’t agree, let’s meet up offline. Oh, by the way, I’m Xia Yi from the Hehuan Sect. I’ll be waiting for you~"

"So what if I support Boss Lu? Come and get me, you little Beast Taming Sect brats! Nyeh-nyeh-nyeh-nyeh."

The formidable members of the sect were not only powerful but also incredibly united in their charge.

The Beast Taming Sect’s few comments were quickly drowned out by the vast army of customers.

Seeing the other side go silent, the sect members knew when to quit while they were ahead.

The Bun Sect didn’t go looking for trouble, but they wouldn’t just swallow their pride and take it when bullied either.

The Great Elder had told them to do whatever they wanted; he’d cover for them.

Having won a decisive victory, the sect members went back to discussing Lu Wu’s whereabouts.

Lou Xiaotian’s earlier leak had kept the inner circle of the Bun Sect in suspense for a long time.

As one of the Inner Sect Disciples, Lou Xiaotian’s words were highly credible.

But then Lou Xiaotian went dark and said nothing more, which drove them crazy with anxiety.

"You guys think Lou did that on purpose? Maybe he just doesn’t want us competing with him for the food."

One sect member boldly spoke up.

And the person behind that account was none other than Lou Batian.

No one knows a son better than his father.

If Lou Xiaotian so much as farted, he knew what the boy was thinking.

As the Town Lord, he couldn’t just leave Xiaohe Town whenever he pleased.

Seeing his son out gallivanting while he was stuck at home getting glared at by his wife every day, Lou Batian saw his chance. The man who had to meekly endure his wife’s displeasure had finally found an opportunity to get back at Lou Xiaotian.

’Son, you’d better be ready to receive this heavy love from your dear father.’

"..."

"I think the person above is onto something."

"Damn, is that something a human being would even do?"

"Yeah, it is. If it were me, I’d do the same thing."

What Bun Sect member didn’t dream of booking out Boss Lu’s entire stall for themselves?

"I heard the last place Boss Lu was seen was Yuanhai City."

City Lord Dan, an Outer Disciple who was also following the news about Lu Wu, kindly revealed this piece of information. Watching the page get flooded with replies, she smiled the smile of one whose mission was accomplished.

’This will definitely attract a lot of customers to Yuanhai City. This month’s performance quota will be a piece of cake.’

With the shining example of Hong’an City before her, she had to find a way to host these customers even better and make them feel right at home.

Hong’an City: You two-faced schemer, back off! Also, give me back my Boss Lu! (IN A VERY LOUD VOICE!)

Regardless of whether the news was true or not, many customers started to make their move.

「Hong’an City.」

Zeng Si looked at his son’s deadpan yet clearly food-desiring face, then at the veiled threats from his wife, and nodded.

"Fine. The three of us will treat it as a trip to Yuanhai City. We can even watch the Prodigy Tournament."

Once his goal was achieved, Zeng Sheng instantly hid that trace of longing.

His dark eyes glinted with a smile.

’The skewers were delicious... and those savory crepes... I want them.’

The foodie besties, Mumu and Tian Tian, also made the same decision.

"We don’t have anything going on right now anyway, so why don’t we go chase after Boss Lu? Besides, I’m planning to start a special ’Boss Lu’s Gourmet’ thread, dedicated to updating everyone on her snacks."

Tian Tian loved to eat, and she also loved to share.

That was how the two of them had met on One World Communication in the first place.

Boss Lu’s food gave her a lot of inspiration. Thanks to her previous posts, she had been gaining followers like crazy.

"I agree. I’ll help you with it."

The two of them packed their bags and left just like that.

Many of the customers who had come to the city for the skewers now left in pursuit of Lu Wu.

Even a single piece of news was enough to send these foodies on their way.

This just went to show the allure of good food.

In the face of such delicacies, even Boss Lu, the chef herself, had to take a backseat.

As the City Lord of Hong’an City, Cang watched the massive outflow of tourists with a heart full of anguish.

His sorrow wasn’t for the departing guests, but for the fact that he couldn’t follow them.

The position of City Lord gave him power, but it also came with corresponding duties.

’No, that’s not right!’

Cang He Guang remembered the Evil Dragon in the Secret Realm.

’What if...’

’If I said the Evil Dragon has been acting up recently and needs Boss Lu’s food to be placated, couldn’t I go find Boss Lu under the pretext of official business?’

Thinking this was a viable plan, Cang He Guang prepared to file a report.

’Wait a minute!’

’In all of Hong’an City, I, Cang, have the most authority.’

’Oh!’

’Never mind then, I’ll just go!’

As for the wails of his subordinates, Cang suddenly went selectively deaf. He couldn’t hear a thing.

...

The customers were on their way.

Lu Wu had been waiting at her stall all morning, and all the savory crepes she’d sold were from Lou Xiaotian’s order.

Although he had a big appetite, there was no way he could eat two thousand servings.

With the mission progress at less than ten for the whole morning, Lu Wu didn’t feel anxious. Instead, she checked the time and prepared to close up shop.

’Time to go home, catch up on sleep, and fight another day.’

"Miss, please wait! I’d like to buy a savory crepe!"

Just then, a figure appeared in the distance, waving and shouting at Lu Wu with a sense of urgency.

It was a woman, dressed entirely in black.

A skull emblem was embroidered on her sleeve with white thread.

She was clutching her stomach, her face pale. When she saw Lu Wu, it was as if she were seeing her long-lost mother, and her eyes welled up with tears.
