The grand hall's doors swung open, and Mien walked out. As she glanced ahead, her eyes stung with pain.

"Cough, cough. If the master and madam wish to kiss, I have no objections; however, this is still my home. Please consider my feelings," she said.

Influenced by Mien's words, Wang Xiaole quickly separated from Mewo White. At that moment, Wang Xiaole's emotions mirrored the subtlety of discovering that a roommate had a girlfriend.

Mien made an effort to avoid the lingering sour smell and clapped her hands lightly. With a sound like a "pat," grass sprouted miraculously beneath Mewo White and Wang Xiaole's feet, making it seem as though spring had suddenly arrived.

"Sit," Mien gestured for the two to sit opposite her. Wang Xiaole complied, while Mewo White followed suit, imitating the behavior of this "big brother."

Once the two were seated, Mien nodded and began a conversation with Wang Xiaole.

"Master, care for a drink?"

"What?"

"I'm asking what beverage you'd like. Coffee from the West Continent, spirits from the East, or perhaps the cola you are accustomed to drinking?"

"Mien, I don't understand what you're saying."

"Master, don't deceive people. Even if you wanted to, you couldn't deceive me."

To ease Wang Xiaole's guard, Mien turned her back and brought out something from the hall. The object was rectangular, covered in peeling paint, and made of stainless steel. Both in the Celestial Empire and in other countries beyond, this object had a common name - "refrigerator."

Seeing the refrigerator, Wang Xiaole felt as though he had suddenly grasped something. His gaze towards Mien shifted.

"Have you been to the world where I live?"

"In response to the master, I visited that place a long time ago. I remember during one visit, the men there still wore their hair in braids."

"So, you can freely travel between the two worlds?"

"It's hard to say... the meaning of 'freely' depends on the master's interpretation. If I were to use magic and go to the master's homeland, it wouldn't be much harder than stepping out the front door."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaole's view of the girl before him suddenly became dazzling. He didn't think Mien was lying; the refrigerator served as undeniable evidence. Moreover, with his keen eyesight, he could vaguely make out the words "made in China" on its surface.

Since Mien could bring a refrigerator from the Celestial Empire, Wang Xiaole was inclined to believe that fulfilling his wish - whether for Mien to bring his sister or to allow him to return and meet his sister - was not a difficult task.

Mien's intention was simply to host Wang Xiaole, allowing him and Mewo White to rest before facing the impending challenge. Later on, Wang Xiaole would find himself increasingly trusting her, a result solely of Mien's unexpected hospitality.

"I ask again, what would the master like to drink?" Her second inquiry snapped Wang Xiaole out of his excitement.

He realized clearly:

No matter how beautiful the moment of wish fulfillment might be, if he couldn't successfully overcome the obstacle, then all expectations would turn into a bubble at that moment.

Even from the perspective of results, he had to take a good rest now, eat and drink to accumulate energy.

"I want a bottle of cola, some meat and vegetables, preferably with chicken wings."

"Understood. What would the lady like?"

"......"

"Oh, some dried fish, layered cakes, and an extra cup of juice, got it."

After receiving the order, Miin immediately started rummaging through the refrigerator.

Cola from '82, peanuts from the last century... None of these would be found in the refrigerator.

Every week, Miin would make an effort to cross over to the market in Heavenly Dynasty to restock supplies, ensuring that the food in the refrigerator would never go bad.

Once she found the food and drinks, she used flame magic to heat up the ones needing to be warmed and placed the cold drinks with a straw.

After a few minutes of bustling, she placed all the food and drinks Mewo White and Wang Xiaole desired in front of them.

Originally, Mewo White wanted to eat a cream-covered sausage, but Wang Xiaole persuaded her to give up that thought obediently;

Wang Xiaole did so mainly because she didn't regard that kind of food as good, and it would be awkward for her to watch from the side.
