The chef carefully poured 400g of water, 30g of sugar, and 20g of fish glue powder into the pot, ensuring they were mixed evenly. Next, he added flowers to the infused water and brought it to a boil. Once boiled, he turned off the stove and transferred the fragrant water into a flower-shaped container.
Placing it inside the refrigerator, he patiently waited for the flowers to freeze.
The four skilled chefs had created four different flavors of flower jelly, each with its unique taste and presentation.
The staff diligently carried the frozen flower jellies to the guests. Among them,
Mi Lu picked up a jasmine-flavored flower jelly and intended to pass it to Davies, who was standing behind him. However, when he turned around, he realized Davies was nowhere to be found.
Mi Lu’s heart raced with worry. He knew that in Zhou Ye’s absence, Davies wouldn’t leave without bidding farewell to her.
Unbeknownst to Mi Lu, Davies had disappeared into the garden and was now lying in the back seat of a flying car. Sitting beside him was Lunch, a young nobleman fixated on Davies’ captivating appearance.
The young nobleman greedily admired Davies’ face, even with his eyes closed, unable to conceal its extraordinary beauty.
After a brief journey, the flying car arrived at the noble young master’s opulent manor. Impatiently, he scooped up the unconscious Davies and hurriedly stepped out of the vehicle, making his way into his residence.
Once inside his room, the noble young master gently placed Davies on his bed. He then fetched a syringe containing pink potions, intending to inject Davies with them, transforming him into a beautiful pet under his control.
Just as the silver needle of the syringe was about to pierce Davies’ skin, the seemingly unconscious young man suddenly opened his eyes and firmly grasped the noble young master’s hand holding the syringe.
Astonished, the noble young master exclaimed, “Aren’t you supposed to be unconscious from the effects of the knockout powder? Why are you awake now?” His eyes widened in disbelief, fixed on the young man standing before him.
Davies sneered with contempt and replied, “The knockout powder is useless. I’ve been pretending all along.”
The nobleman’s initial surprise quickly transformed into a twisted smile, revealing his true intentions. He spoke softly to Davies, his tone dripping with arrogance, “Oh, my dear delicate beauty, it seems you fail to comprehend the vast difference between us. I am an A-rank powerhouse with immense mental strength. Your frail frame won’t be able to withstand my wrath.”
The nobleman regarded Davies with a condescending gaze, likening him to a docile and defenseless lamb. “However, if you insist on playing games, I shall gladly indulge you.”
Davies observed the nobleman’s exhilarated expression and couldn’t help but conclude that something was seriously wrong with the man’s mind. Clearly, the tables had turned, and it was Davies who was now in control. How could the nobleman dare to claim he was fearlessly playing around?
Curiosity piqued, Davies examined the syringe in his hand. “What’s this?”
The aristocratic young master, fixated on the youth’s exquisite visage, displayed an excited grin. “It’s a splendid concoction that will grant you unparalleled euphoria!”
“I see,” Davies responded with a smile. “Of course, such a remarkable substance is best suited for a nobleman like yourself!”
Much to the aristocratic young master’s astonishment, the young man swiftly seized the syringe and plunged it into his own thigh, allowing the pink liquid to flow into his body.
Unbeknownst to the noble young master, this was an arousal potion specifically crafted for mermaids. It induced a heightened state of excitement and subdued their combative tendencies.
As the young man injected himself, the noble young master’s expression twisted into a dark scowl. His voice grew hoarse and unpleasant as he snarled, “How dare you inject that inferior concoction into my body? Do you wish to die?!”
Davies arched an eyebrow, maintaining an innocent gaze. “But you were the one who claimed it was ‘good stuff.’ Why now do you denounce it as inferior?”
“Cease these word games! I clearly underestimated you. I assumed you were just like any other obedient and beautiful plaything. Little did I anticipate that you were a cunning white rabbit capable of biting back!” The noble young master tapped into his mental strength and swiftly reached out to throttle the young man by his slender neck.
Facing the noble young master’s grasp, Davies made no effort to evade. He allowed the nobleman’s hand to easily encircle his delicate throat.
As the aristocratic young master effortlessly grasped the young man’s neck, a flicker of vigilance vanished from his eyes, replaced by a disdainful glare. “I assumed you possessed mental strength akin to mine, but it seems you’re nothing more than an ordinary individual devoid of such abilities.”
Perceiving no signs of spiritual power emanating from Davies, the noble young master loosened his grip on Davies’ neck..
