Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system-Chapter 564 - 553: Something’s Up

After the pets finished their dinner, their owners accompanied them to play and do some interactive mini games on the lawn.

It was not until after eight that they slowly left the pet house.

Xia Yue and the otters took the pets back to their respective rooms to rest.

Xia Yue instructed the otters to get up early tomorrow morning, check on the pets’ condition when they woke up, take them out for a bit of exercise, and prepare their food.

This is also what the tourists had told them, that breakfast should be eaten by their pets here.

Having finished talking, Xia Yue tidied up, ensuring she didn’t leave anything behind before exiting the pet house.

It was so crowded in the evening that she hadn’t had time to eat dinner.

Luckily the hotel was not far away, a quick ten-minute walk, and she quickly arrived.

Xia Yue and Ziluo exchanged quick pleasantries before heading to the Dining Hall’s kitchen.

"You’re here. Your food is over there, still hot. Hurry up and eat," Ao Mi said to Xia Yue, pointing at a pot.

"Thank you," Xia Yue nodded, walked over, served herself a portion from the pot, and began eating in the small dining area.

"Why are you so late today?" Ao Mi curiously asked her, taking a seat opposite her.

"Busy. All those tourists gathered during meal times. I have to keep an eye on them. It will be better in a few days once the pet house is on track, and I don’t have to worry anymore." Having sipped some soup and taken a few bites of her meal, Xia Yue answered him.

"Oh, I have one thing to tell you," Ao Mi said, looking at Xia Yue.

"Go on." Xia Yue continued eating, not looking up.

"I think we need to expand the planting and farming areas, increase the variety of vegetables and quantity of livestock. As the vacation district grows and becomes more crowded with tourists, it may not be enough," Ao Mi suggested.

"Alright, I will discuss it with Manager Yan and Professor Hao. But we won’t be able to expand until next year," Xia Yue glanced at him, nodded, and mentally noted that it was just over a month to the New Year.

With a satisfactory answer from Xia Yue, Ao Mi returned to the kitchen to clean up.

After Xia Yue finished her dinner, she leisurely made her way back to the mansion.

"Why are you only returning now?" As soon as she entered the yard, she could hear Yan Mo’s voice.

He was standing at her doorstep, seemingly waiting for her for a while.

"I didn’t finish work at the pet house until after eight, then I went to eat. I just took my time getting back," Xia Yue explained with a smile.

"The weather is getting colder, come back earlier in the evening to avoid catching a chill," Yan Mo advised her.

Although the temperature here was not as frigid as in Kyoto, it was still quite chilly at night, tolerable during the day.

"I got it. Were you waiting for me? Do you need something?" Xia Yue nodded and asked with curiosity.

"I was worried since you hadn’t returned so late. If it wasn’t for the system alerting me that you were on your way back, I would have gone out to look for you," Yan Mo confessed.

"This is a vacation area, what could possibly happen to me, haha," Xia Yue laughed.

"It’s not early anymore, you should go in. I’m heading back," Yan Mo took a deep breath, told her, and was about to leave.

"Do you have time tomorrow?" Xia Yue, recalling what Ao Mi had said, asked him.

"What’s up? I have time at noon," Yan Mo gave her a puzzled look, but sensing that she needed him, he offered a time slot.

"Then, could you ask Professor Hao if he’s also free at noon tomorrow? I need to discuss something with you both. It would be better if Manager Zheng was there as well." Xia Yue suggested.
