Chapter 27: Bai Jing’s Shock
“Doctor, this ceramic doesn’t keep warm!”
Song Tiantian glanced at the thermos cup in front of her. It was one Dr. Bai had used. Although she had just washed it and poured juice into it,
she also had germophobia, but it was directed at outsiders. She herself was clean even if she slept in a doghouse.
“This juice is cold! Why would you need it to keep warm?”
“Then what about your tea tomorrow!”
“Cold tea is more thirst-quenching.”
Song Tiantian could only take out a straw, insert it into the thermos cup, and finish the juice in one go. Many precious materials had been added to it, and she had planned to take it back to drink slowly!
She might as well take this thermos cup; she would just sterilize it with hot water when she got back, and it would be fine. She had never used such a precious cup in her life!
“Doctor, I’m leaving now. I need to rest. I’m too tired today.”
“Alright! I want juice tomorrow too, and add more flower nectar to the flower tea, it’s too bland, it has no taste.”
“I know.”
Song Tiantian had confirmed one thing: Dr. Bai had a sense of taste, and he even tricked his Pet Beasts.
Song Tiantian wondered if Dr. Bai didn’t need to Cultivate?
Could he be this Powerful just by doing research every day?
She practiced Cultivation every morning and evening. She believed that absorbing the essence of the sun in the morning and the essence of the moon at night would allow her to Increase Strength faster.
Big White was the same; it had to practice Cultivation with her every morning and evening. The rest of the time was spent eating and sleeping.
It wasn’t for long, two hours in the morning and two hours in the evening, four hours a day.
Song Tiantian was still very busy every day.
She also had to be busy making Gourmet Food that could help Big White evolve according to its Recipe Book.
The Ingredients required for White Lotus were too high-grade, and Song Tiantian couldn’t find them all. Even using Dr. Bai’s Private Treasury, she could only make the weakest basic version of the Gourmet Food.
Even so, White Lotus was already moved to tears. Although Song Tiantian didn’t know where White Lotus’s eyes were, some dewdrops appeared on its flower petals. Coupled with the fact that she could hear White Lotus’s Inner Voice, she concluded that these were White Lotus’s tears.
“Tiantian, why are you drinking water from the Doctor’s water cup! The Doctor doesn’t like people touching his Things.”
Bai Jing looked at Song Tiantian drinking from Dr. Bai’s cup in shock.
She didn’t know what Song Tiantian had done again to make Dr. Bai change his mind so quickly. Although Dr. Bai hadn’t let Song Tiantian join his Research Project, his attitude towards Song Tiantian had improved significantly. He allowed Song Tiantian to touch his personal belongings and even gave her a separate Laboratory.
Most importantly, Dr. Bai actually let Song Tiantian make tea for him every day.
Yesterday, she saw that dark, sulfur-like tea water emitting a disgusting odor, and she was stunned. Was this tea something humans could make?
“The Doctor said he didn’t want this cup anymore. I thought the material of this cup was quite good. It wasn’t iron, but made of Ore. It kept warm exceptionally well and was of good quality, so I kept it for myself to drink water.”
“It’s normal for him not to want it after you put such disgusting Things in Dr. Bai’s cup yesterday. Why did you make such tea!”
At this moment, Bai Jing suddenly understood why Dr. Bai didn’t want the cup. She felt that Dr. Bai must have thought it was contaminated, so he didn’t want it.
“This is fertilizer I researched based on Dr. Bai’s Pet Beast, White Lotus. It’s not tea. He thought it was poisonous, so I let him taste it himself to confirm it was non-toxic and could be used for White Lotus.”
“Fertilizer?”
At this moment, Bai Jing felt that Song Tiantian was defying heaven. She actually dared to give it to Dr. Bai to drink.
She remembered that Song Tiantian had brought six pots of different kinds of dung before, and White Lotus had smeared it all over her face.
She hadn’t seen Song Tiantian for several days afterward. She didn’t expect Song Tiantian to have recovered so quickly and regained Dr. Bai’s trust so soon, to the point where he let her make tea.
“You’re not going to give all of this big pot to Dr. Bai, are you!”
Bai Jing thought the large bottle looked quite nice. It was overall cyan, with a black and white Iron-eating Beast at the bottom, looking very cute.
However, this large bottle and large straw felt completely out of sync with Dr. Bai’s demeanor.
“Yes!”
Bai Jing found it unbelievable.
But then, when she saw Dr. Bai actually drinking from this water bottle, she suddenly realized that she actually didn’t understand Dr. Bai at all.
However, with this water bottle, Dr. Bai’s entire aura seemed to soften, and he didn’t look as terrifying as usual.
Bai Jing felt both respect and fear towards Dr. Bai.
She felt a little jealous that Song Tiantian could be so informal with Dr. Bai, but she also admired Song Tiantian’s mindset. She was always cheerful, like now, picking up a discarded old water cup and showing off to the new colleague how highly Dr. Bai regarded her.
She felt that Song Tiantian, lacking Strength, was trying to disguise her good Relationship with Dr. Bai so that people wouldn’t look down on her.
However, Song Tiantian’s intimacy with her Pet Beasts was genuinely high.
Dr. Bai’s Pet Beasts were truly good to Song Tiantian.
As long as she heard White Lotus speaking all day, it was White Lotus praising Song Tiantian for being so good and Excellent, urging Dr. Bai to promote Song Tiantian.
This was Talent; she truly couldn’t envy it.
To be able to have Dr. Bai’s Pet Beast constantly whisper sweet nothings.
That Laboratory was even more outrageous. She took a peek; it was Song Tiantian and White Lotus making Ceramics.
Using Dr. Bai’s precious Instruments to make Ceramics.
And White Lotus would randomly give away water cups.
She had received a crooked, three-legged ceramic water cup from White Lotus, and if she didn’t use it, White Lotus would be unhappy.
The red, yellow, and blue color scheme on it was truly ugly.
But this was given to her by Dr. Bai’s Pet Beast, so it was exceptionally meaningful, and she had to use it.
And hers was considered good; many people received pots, but White Lotus insisted they were cups, and they were too lazy to argue, so they defaulted.
As a result, many people in the entire Laboratory used strange water cups.
Later, some people discovered that White Lotus didn’t give them to just anyone; it basically gave them to those who had a certain Strength in the Laboratory.
Those who didn’t receive one later became anxious.
When they received one later, they no longer disliked its ugliness; this was a trophy!
Some people accidentally chipped their cups and specially repaired them themselves.
In fact, they didn’t know that after White Lotus’s ceramic craftsmanship improved, it wanted to throw away the old cups. Song Tiantian reminded it that they could be given away as gifts, as they were personally made and exceptionally meaningful.
White Lotus felt that what Song Tiantian said made a lot of sense.
White Lotus then felt that its creations shouldn’t be given to just anyone; they should be given to those with merit, so it screened them again.
