Chapter 648 Little Surprise
Xiao Jin's appearance once again became the focus.
The simple outfit looked even cooler under the night light. The wet hair became fluffy again, and a few strands of hair hung in front of the forehead, adding a bit of laziness.
She ignored all the looks and walked straight to the food pick-up area.
Xiao Jin's movements seemed slow, but he clamped just as much.
The huge tray was quickly filled with roasted, top-quality marbled beef, meaty deep-sea lobster tails, thick-cut tuna sashimi, and large amounts of high-energy steaks from unknown animals.
The portion was so huge that even the NPC chef who was in charge of cutting the meat was stunned.
Afterwards, Xiao Jin couldn't wait to find a relatively secluded corner and sit down. A Mo slipped out of her sleeves and landed on a chair beside her. His body grew larger silently, from the thickness of a finger to the thickness of a wrist.
Although it was still in miniature form, the sense of oppression was clearly stronger. Its scarlet snake pupils were staring at the largest roasted animal steak on the tray, which was as big as a washbasin.
Xiao Jin picked up the knife, and with a flash of cold light, his movements were so swift that only a shadow remained. The huge roasted steak was instantly divided into dozens of evenly sized pieces.
She picked up one of the pieces and handed it to Amo's mouth.
Amo opened his mouth gracefully, curled his tongue, and the piece of meat disappeared.
Then, a hint of satisfaction clearly revealed in its cold vertical pupils.
Taking out Amo's exclusive rice bowl from the space, Xiao Jin put some meat into the bowl. Of course, delicious food should be shared!
Then Xiao Jin picked up the knife and fork himself, and began to finish the mountain of food in front of him in a gentle but extremely fast manner.
One person and one snake, quietly and quickly enjoying dinner in the corner of the noisy self-service barbecue area. After finishing the meal, Xiao Jin did not forget to order a few more plates.
The chef kept looking at her with horror.
In the end, under Xiao Jin's intentional control, this kind of eating ended.
Let’s not talk about myself, let’s talk about Amo. If he really eats his fill, the food in the entire restaurant will not be enough for him.
Giving up the barbecue area, Xiao Jin strolled around and watched the small performances prepared by the hotel.
Of course, Xiao Jin would also go to the surrounding area to get some snacks, such as popcorn, small cakes, shaved ice, etc.
There is a saying that goes, snacks and meals do not share the same stomach.

As the night deepens, the noisy sound of the waves during the day is filtered into a low background sound.
At this moment, in the "Blue Reef" bar of the "Seaside Fantasy Resort Hotel", the lights were deliberately dimmed, leaving only the glittering wine bottles behind the bar and the swaying bean candle lamps on each table, casting a warm and ambiguous halo.
The lazy blues jazz music is like silky satin, entwined in every corner.
The low whimper of the saxophone, the jumping whisper of the piano keys, mixed with the crisp sound of ice cubes hitting the wall of the glass, weave a tipsy and private atmosphere that is completely different from the outside world.
Xiao Jin sat alone in a booth at the deepest part of the bar, almost blending into the shadows in the corner.
On her table stood an almost untouched glass of dark-colored "Black Sea Kiss," with ice cubes condensing on the wall of the glass and slowly sliding down.
She leaned back against the soft leather sofa, eyes slightly closed, as if taking a nap, or as if examining this false tranquility.
The sense of worldliness that came with changing into holiday clothes during the day has now dissipated in the dim light, leaving only the coldness and alienation in one's bones.
Two buttons of the collar of the white linen shirt were undone, revealing a small piece of cold jade-like skin and a well-defined collarbone. Her long hair was casually draped, with a few strands falling on her cheeks, outlining a neat yet somewhat decadent silhouette in the candlelight.
At her feet, in the deeper shadows, A-Mo was curled up in a ball.
All its breath was restrained, and its pitch-black scales seemed to absorb the light. Only occasionally, when its tongue was slightly spread out, a flash of scarlet would appear in the shadows, like a lurking ghost.
Its cold vertical pupils were half-open, alert to everything around it, but it remained dormant because of its master's calmness.
There were not many people in the bar. A few couples were whispering in the corner, and a few guests drinking alone were scattered around the bar.
Behind the bar, a tall, pointed-eared, silver-haired, and handsome elf bartender, who looked unlike any mortal, was gracefully wiping the crystal glasses. His movements were smooth and flowing, with an ancient and quiet beauty.
As time was slowly flowing, a figure quietly approached the corner where Xiao Jin was, as if blending into the musical notes.
The visitor was wearing an extremely gorgeous performance costume - a dark purple velvet tuxedo, lined with a dark-patterned shirt embroidered with silver thread, and a black silk bow tie at the collar.
He was tall and slender, walked silently, and had a perfect, professional and mysterious smile on his face, as if he was wearing a perfect mask.
However, when his gaze fell on Xiao Jin's cold and beautiful face in the shadows, there seemed to be a very subtle and deep wave passing through the depths of those dark brown eyes, so fast that people thought it was the swaying of candlelight.
It’s Jian Yiqiu… No, it’s Jian Yiqiu who plays the top magician NPC of “Seaside Fantasy”.
He stood beside Xiao Jin's desk, neither too close nor too far away, with a natural stage presence but not overly oppressive.
The next second, Jian Yiqiu bowed slightly and performed an ancient and elegant chest-touching gesture, his movements smooth as if they had been honed through thousands of trials and tribulations.
The voice was not loud, but it strangely penetrated the blues in the background and reached Xiao Jin's ears clearly.
The voice was hoarse with a hint of magnetism: "Beautiful lady, the night is so gentle, and the stars have dimmed a little because of your arrival."
His opening remarks were delivered with a gorgeous stage tone, but his eyes fell on Xiao Jin's face as if it were real, capturing the subtle changes in his expression.
"On such a beautiful night, might I be honored to present a small performance for you? Just consider it a small gift of pleasure from the night."
Xiao Jin noticed the moment he approached.
She slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes, like cold ponds, lit up in the darkness, sharp, cold, and with a hint of amusement, piercing straight at Jian Yiqiu.
There were no words, no expressions, and a powerful aura spread silently.
The smile on Jian Yiqiu's face did not change at all. Not refusing meant agreeing.
He stretched out his right hand. The knuckles were distinct, slender, white, and well-maintained. One could tell at a glance that they were an extremely dexterous pair of hands.
