According to the schedule, she would clear the game tonight and leave the cyber world.
All personal missions had been completed; there were no survival threats.
But the closer the departure, the more uneasy Jiang Huaying felt.
To distract herself, she planned to personally arrange a dinner.
It was both to make up for Butcher and Sinclair and a form of farewell.
She never considered revealing the truth.
Jiang Huaying understood perfectly well what their current obedience and submission were based on.
Taming wild beasts was full of uncertainty.
Even if the beasts showed submission, there was always the danger of a counterattack.
She dared not take the risk.
Having made her decision, she immediately got busy.
Since Butcher didn’t need food, to increase the hunters’ sense of participation, she planned to prepare a gift for each of them.
Dinner had to be arranged early so that after eating, she could use the excuse of going to bed early to slip back to her room and leave the game.
Even if the hunters noticed something was off, it was already the second day.
News that “The Young Mistress is having a candlelight dinner and proposing to her tamed monsters” spread quickly.
Within two hours, the entire MF Group was buzzing.
Everyone whispered excitedly, no matter how much they tried to hide their curiosity and excitement.
It wasn’t disrespect toward Jiang Huaying but admiration for the surprise she brought!
Taming monsters, challenging authority, respecting life.
She was gentle yet strong, unlike her greedy father or tyrannical brother.
So whatever she did was well accepted.
“But who is the young mistress proposing to?”
“Butcher, the classic MF model. You can’t go wrong with him!”
“I think Sinclair is pretty good too. He’s got built-in jealousy. So many fierce monsters are part of our young mistress’s private army.”
“Can’t she have both?”
“No way, young mistress! A few more won’t be a problem!”
“Who’s bigger, who’s smaller?”
The staff chatted excitedly, unaware of the tall figure standing quietly nearby.
Butcher appeared and left without anyone noticing.
Time quickly passed to the appointed hour.
Butcher and Sinclair appeared almost simultaneously at the restaurant entrance.
The atmosphere instantly turned tense.
The waiter nearby was so nervous his skin was taut and cold sweat silently dripped, afraid the gods would fight here.
Fortunately, the restaurant door was wide enough for both Butcher and Sinclair to enter side by side.
“Good evening.” Jiang Huaying did not expose their little intentions.
She clearly noticed that Butcher’s usual attire looked different tonight.
Maybe because of the candlelight, his well-defined muscles gleamed with an enticing bronze-gold hue—sensual enough to dry out anyone’s mouth.
Compared to Butcher’s low-key appearance, Sinclair was much more ostentatious in an exquisite, tailored suit.
It was the first time he wore such a complicated human outfit.
The vest clung tightly to his slender waist and broad shoulders.
His long legs were wrapped in sharp-creased trousers, resembling a young nobleman from a painting.
His bright yellow cat eyes added an otherworldly, sinister charm.
But the free-spirited cat was very uncomfortable with the tight restraint.
Sinclair kept tugging at his clothes, quickly making the outfit a mess—yet somehow even more charming.
Jiang Huaying suddenly felt her eyes were not enough.
Compared to her own lingering and indecision, Butcher and Sinclair were much more straightforward.
The hunters’ eyes locked onto her the moment she entered.
Jiang Huaying had also dressed up well.
She wore the dress Butcher had made for her.
The long silk skirt floated lightly, the gentle sway like flowing, soft moonlight.
The lustrous pearl necklace outlined a waist small enough to grasp in one hand.
The warm candlelight washed over her side, filling Butcher’s heart with warmth, filling every void and unease.
Sinclair twitched his nose, feelings of bittersweetness rising, but he controlled himself from acting out.
He silently moved his shadow until it completely covered Jiang Huaying’s.
She didn’t let the hunters stand at the door for too long and invited them to sit.
Her arrangement of the dinner was literal—arranging the staff to work.
If she expected the young mistress to cook herself, MF Tower might as well close down.
A long table sat in the center of the restaurant, covered with a luxurious, exquisite tablecloth and adorned with fresh, blooming Moonlight Flowers.
Every corner was lit with candles, and even rare green plants were luxuriously displayed as decoration.
Jiang Huaying took the main seat.
Butcher and Sinclair each occupied one side, neither gaining the advantage.
The waiter began serving food promptly.
The Chef’s carefully prepared dishes brought irresistible aromas wafting from afar.
“Ah Ying specially prepared this food for me?” Sinclair leaned over, tilting his body close to Jiang Huaying, fingers impatiently tugging at his tie.
His rough action broke a button, exposing a small patch of cold, white collarbone to the air.
Sinclair had tried to hold back—after all, this outfit was meant to seduce Jiang Huaying.
But soon he realized she preferred his messy self.
Jiang Huaying’s gaze slid over Sinclair’s open collar and corrected, “It’s for both of you.”
“Butcher doesn’t eat. It’s a waste even giving food to the hunters,” Sinclair provocatively challenged the big guy across from him.
Butcher ignored him, his red electronic eyes calmly watching Jiang Huaying.
His voice was deep and steady: “I can eat it.”
Jiang Huaying was softened by Butcher’s obedient puppy-like demeanor.
Her hidden foot under the table pressed shyly against Butcher’s leg.
“Then open it and see?” she whispered.
Butcher paused, then lifted the plate cover.
Inside wasn’t food, but a gift.
A J Pendant.
Both Butcher and Sinclair’s attention was drawn to the pendant.
For a moment, neither noticed another perfectly packaged mysterious gift below.
Butcher picked up the pendant.
Jiang Huaying gently shook it along with his movement.
Little Ah Ying wore a cute poofy skirt, carrying a large black trash bag on her shoulder.
It was a little hunter back from a hunt.
Butcher carefully poked the pendant’s cheek: “Cute.”
Little Ah Ying’s fair cheeks bounced back like a soft glutinous rice ball.
“Cute is good. You can hang this on your axe. Whenever you see it, you’ll think of me!” Jiang Huaying taught him where to hang it.
Before the pendant could reach Butcher’s hand, a furry hunter tail wrapped tightly around his wrist.
“Ah Ying is biased,” Sinclair hissed through clenched teeth, his shadow growing larger as his mood shifted.
Butcher had already looked at his own plate—it contained normal food!
No gift.
Only Sinclair had no gift!
“Biased Ah Ying! Too much, Ah Ying!”
Sinclair’s jealousy distorted his face.
With a sudden tug of his tail, Jiang Huaying was pulled, falling into Butcher’s arms.
“Not done yet,” Butcher calmly grasped her other wrist, stating the fact.
Jiang Huaying’s body swayed slightly but remained centered.
The posture was a little awkward, and she instinctively struggled.
The next second, two extra arms appeared around her waist.
The heavy pillars that required several people to move were roughly pushed aside with a screeching sound.
Jiang Huaying: …
Sinclair’s shadow beneath his feet turned into corrupted, toxic black water, attacking Butcher.
“You mutt, let go of me!”
Butcher resisted but did not release Jiang Huaying’s hand.
Seeing the two gods about to fight again, Jiang Huaying panicked and unleashed her trump card:
“Whoever dares ruin everything I carefully prepared, I will…”
Her words were cut off as the cats and big dog obediently sat down.
Even the long table was dragged back into place.
Yet, no one let go of her hands.
The restaurant fell silent once more in a tense stalemate.
Jiang Huaying sighed, first looking at Butcher.
Sinclair’s sharp gaze swept over her, filled with anger, unwillingness, and pain stirring a storm inside his chest that almost drove him mad.
But Jiang Huaying’s next words immediately calmed the tempest.
“Imon, let go. That’s an order.”
Sinclair’s dark clouds vanished, his body light as air.
“Did you hear that? Ah Ying told you to let go!”
Butcher was silent for a moment, then lowered his pale head and obediently released her wrist.
Sinclair’s cat ears twitched arrogantly, acting like a triumphant favored concubine.
But beneath the table, Jiang Huaying’s toes brushed Butcher’s abdomen, as if rewarding him with a gentle step.
Having comforted Butcher, Jiang Huaying took a small box from her pocket.
“Your gift is here. I was going to give it to you later.”
She had planned everything well.
Butcher didn’t eat.
Two gifts: one for Sinclair and one for herself.
Dinner with Sinclair, one gift.
Everything was steady and under control.
Who would have guessed that the jealous little hunter couldn’t wait even a second?
Sinclair eagerly tore open the package.
Inside was an earring.
Made of amber close to his eye color, carved with the head of a tabby hunter cat.
“Ah Ying, I like it so much!” Sinclair instantly melted from a difficult, prickly person into a soft, warm cat.
His warm body pressed close as he helped Jiang Huaying put on the earring.
Naturally, Jiang Huaying agreed.
The beautiful earring suited Sinclair perfectly.
The once-jealous cat had now become the happiest cat in the world.
After all the fuss, she finally soothed her monsters.
The cold food on the table was taken away by the waiter, replaced with a fresh batch of hot dishes.
Fine food and excellent wine—the atmosphere was just right.
Just as Jiang Huaying raised her utensils, ready to eat, the system prompt suddenly sounded in her ear.
【Dungeon “Neon Escape Kill” early settlement in progress…】
【Main Mission Completed.】
【Personal Mission (3/3) Completed.】
【Congratulations player on clearing the dungeon. Exiting this world in 5 seconds.】
Jiang Huaying’s eyes widened sharply!
Why was the clearance time so much earlier than expected?!
