At this moment, Mr. Faxun, accompanied by Raiden Makoto and a group of Little Cuties, found a suitable restaurant.
This restaurant didn't have many customers, the environment was relatively quiet, and there were private rooms upstairs, making it quite suitable for Mr. Faxun and his group to dine.
The restaurant owners were an elderly couple.
It was easy to see that this elderly couple really liked children.
Because after the Little One entered the restaurant, the couple specially gave them many candies.
And in the udon noodles they served, they gave each child an extra fried egg.
The Little One were already starving, and upon seeing the delicious udon noodles, they immediately picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
Watching the Little One happily slurping their noodles, Raiden Makoto, who was beside them, had a faint smile on her face.
"Is this Mr. Faxun's daily life?"
"Watching the Little One eat is also quite a healing experience."
Even if it was just an ordinary fried egg, they could eat it with great relish.
Sometimes, Raiden Makoto felt that being a child was quite good.
You get free fried eggs with your meal.
Every day is spent happily and carefree.
"How wonderful."
At this moment, Mr. Faxun picked up a fried egg and placed it in Raiden Makoto's bowl.
Looking at the fried egg in her bowl, Raiden Makoto was a bit surprised: "Mr. Faxun, this is..."
"This is a fried egg. Has Makoto never eaten one before?"
Raiden Makoto shook her head, then said: "I mean, why did Mr. Faxun give me a fried egg?"
"Oh, I just think that what other children have, you should have too."
Facing Mr. Faxun's answer, Raiden Makoto was momentarily stunned.
"Is Mr. Faxun treating her like a child?"
"But I'm not a child anymore."
Mr. Faxun looked into Raiden Makoto's eyes, then retorted: "Who says only children can eat fried eggs?"
He paused, then continued: "Besides, no matter how old you are, you can still be a child."
Mr. Faxun's casual remark touched Raiden Makoto's heart.
Before this, it was something Raiden Makoto had never considered.
In the eyes of the Inazuma people, she was the divine being who led them towards eternity.
In Ei's eyes, she was the older sister who could arrange everything in an orderly manner.
Only Mr. Faxun told her that she could be a child.
Gazing at the fried egg in her bowl, Raiden Makoto was silent for a moment, then said to Mr. Faxun: "Thank you."
"I mean, being a child is quite nice too."
She took a gentle bite of the fried egg, seemingly understanding why the Little Cuties were eating so happily.
The fried eggs given to children really did taste better.
...
Mr. Faxun looked at the sky outside the window; the sun was not scorching, and the breeze was just right, making it a good day for an outing.
After finishing breakfast, Raiden Makoto put on her mask and led the children downstairs.
Mr. Faxun, on the other hand, went to the front desk to pay the bill.
The restaurant couple smilingly asked Mr. Faxun: "Young man, did you enjoy the food today?"
They could tell Mr. Faxun was a foreigner, so they hoped Inazuma's breakfast would leave a good impression on him.
Mr. Faxun nodded, giving his feedback: "The noodles were very delicious, the taste was quite good, and the Little One are all very full."
"What? You want to go to Yae Publishing House, but you don't know how to get there?"
The old man was elderly and seemed a bit hard of hearing.
Coupled with the similar pronunciation of the Inazuma words 'Little One' and 'Yae Publishing House', it led to the old man's misunderstanding.
The old man enthusiastically gave Mr. Faxun directions: "Go straight ahead, then turn left at the intersection, and you'll reach Yae Publishing House."
The old man paused, then continued: "I heard there's an event being held there today, and many young people have gone."
"You'd best go early too, otherwise you might not be able to squeeze in."
Following the direction the old man pointed, Mr. Faxun also noticed many people heading towards Yae Publishing House, walking quickly as if in a hurry.
Some uninformed people asked passersby: "Why are you walking so fast? Where are you going?"
A passerby turned back and explained to a friend: "Yae Publishing House is releasing a new book today, didn't you know?"
"I heard it's by a Liyue author, and the plot is very interesting!"
"I've read some of the preview content, and it's indeed different from the light novels on the market."
"Editor-in-Chief Yae even guaranteed that this story will absolutely be a refreshing experience for readers!"
"Really? Then I'll go check it out too!"
Only then did Mr. Faxun remember.
Today was the day Yae Publishing House released a new book.
Mr. Faxun had to go to the site.
Honestly, Mr. Faxun didn't plan to join in on the excitement.
He preferred a quieter environment over crowded and noisy places.
However, Yae Miko insisted that Mr. Faxun go to the event, saying that without the author, it couldn't be considered a signing event.
And Yae Miko also said many meaningful things to Mr. Faxun:
"Mr. Faxun, you wouldn't want the children in your home to be bullied by me, would you?"
"Mr. Faxun, you wouldn't want Gan Yu to lose her job, would you?"
"Mr. Faxun, you wouldn't want everyone to know your other side, would you?"
That lewd fox played dirty.
No choice.
Mr. Faxun could only agree to Yae Miko's request to participate in this signing event.
Regarding this, Mr. Faxun turned his head to look at Raiden Makoto and the Little One behind him.
He smiled bitterly with a hint of helplessness: "Let's go, let's go check out Yae Publishing House."
