Chapter 2195: Gina Is a Good Girl
The gathering ended in a happy ambiance. Many had drunk quite a bit and left the restaurant tipsy.
Mag stood at the door, watching his guests leave. He suddenly realized the snow in Aden Square had already melted and the bare tree branches seemed to be gathering energy. Perhaps, he would see buds sprouting on the tree branches soon.
“Spring is coming soon,” Irina stood behind him and gently said.
“Are the flowers blossoming soon? Are the birds coming back?” Amy ran to the door with a glow in her eyes.
There were many kinds of flowers planted in the Aden Square. It was beautiful during spring.
“Yes, soon.” Mag nodded with a smile before he closed the door and locked the cold winds out.
Annie ran downstairs with a picture book in her arms and passed it to Mag.
“Is this your new work?” Mag received it and his eyes lit up when he saw the sexy and cute Miss Black Cat wearing a black mask in the night on the cover.
After learning and practicing for some time, Annie’s drawing style was already very stable and getting more and more mature gradually.
Picture books in this world were very limited, so Mag got a bunch of famous comics from the Earth’s source material library and let Annie learn from them.
The little one had a very strong learning ability. She absorbed the masters’ techniques while maintaining her own individuality and she came out with her own style.
It was extremely intricate and every detail was impeccable.
In this area, Annie did indeed have the focus and speed that the comic artists of Earth envied.
Her speed was really something else!
It would take a comic artist a few days to draw a cover page, but Annie could complete a whole book within the same period of time.
Mag flipped through the picture book. The story basically followed Miss Black Cat’s storyline, but Annie deftly changed it from the opera form to the comic form and it was still very fascinating.
“Hmm, it’s excellent. I think Miss Black Cat would like it very much too.” Mag nodded with a smile. The level of the comic’s completion had exceeded his expectations.
“Our Annie is a little comic genius.” Irina also marveled. She couldn’t even draw a perfect circle.
Don’t laugh. You’re no better.
Annie smiled but she soon asked with sign language, “When are we going to Rodu again?”
After pondering briefly, Mag said, “Maybe the day after tomorrow. The restaurant will open tomorrow, and it will close for one day after that. We can go to Rodu to settle the tavern then.”
Mamy Restaurant resuming its business meant that Saipan Tavern had to close down.
However, Mag thought of a solution and it was to let Miss Eiffie and Mala take over the operation of the tavern. Apart from not being able to change the side dishes, there would be no problem in supplying the beverages.
Of course, the premise was that Miss Eiffie had to be willing to take over.
Meanwhile, he was also very curious about if the Black Cat Opera House had moved into the venue he had reserved for them and how their current operation was.

Lying on the bed at night, Irina finally had the chance to be alone with Mag. “How is the situation at Lantisde now?”
“They should be choosing to join the Underground City and leave the Norland Continent forever. They won’t be interacting with us anymore,” Mag answered. He repeated Xi and Dexter’s conversation to Irina briefly.
“Then, Gina…”
“Gina chose to stay behind. She said she likes the restaurant and everyone. She doesn’t want to go to the Underground City, so she made a promise to stay on the Norland Continent,” Mag explained.
“Gina is a good girl and the restaurant will be her home in the future.” Irina nodded.
“Hmm. We will prepare a handsome dowry for her when it’s time. We will be her maternal family.” Mag nodded too.
“What if she only wants to marry you?” Irina looked at him smilingly. “Is that money going from your left pocket to your right pocket?”

“Erm…” Mag raised his eyebrows slightly and seriously said, “Am I that kind of person?!”
“I don’t know if you are or not, but Gina definitely stays because she wants to repay the kindness.” Irina chuckled.
“Gina is a good girl.” Mag didn’t dare to continue the conversation. He could only repeat what Irina said.

Frost Dragon Island.
Fox looked at the man who slowly walked into the hall with a pale face. His scary aura made Fox’s legs tremble and he finally couldn’t help but kneel on the ground.
“Great Elder, save me!” Fox turned his head and called out to Douglas on the high seat.
Douglas stayed still with a cold expression.
On the other high seats, the other elders wanted to speak out, but they chose to remain quiet eventually after they saw Rankster in his silver armor.
This was the only man who was Alex’s equal on the Norland Continent.
Fox, this useless fellow, still couldn’t advance to the 10th-tier by now.
Everyone knew what Rankster’s return meant.
The king of the Frost Dragons was back.
And based on what he did previously, everyone knew what would happen if they provoked him.
He would even kill the elders if they antagonized him.
Rankster walked to Fox and looked down at him with a cold smirk.
Next to him was Elizabeth in a long silver dress with an equally cold expression.
“I heard you want to be the chief,” Rankster said with a laugh.
“I-I…” Fox couldn’t breathe under the terrifying aura. He said with a quivering voice, “I just didn’t want the Frost Dragons to be without a leader. Now that you’re back, you are naturally still the only king, Big Brother.”
“Is this just going to end like this?” Rankster took one step forward and frost crept up Fox’s knees and froze him.
Fox crouched on the floor and kowtowed with a fearful expression as he said, “Big Brother… Chief. Mercy, Chief…”
The hall was in complete silence. No one spoke up for him.
Fox bullied and almost killed Elizabeth on the Frost Battlefield back then. It would be a wonder if Rankster didn’t kill him today.
No one could save him today.
Rankster raised his right hand with ill-concealed disgust.
“Father, hand him to me.” Right then, Elizabeth, who had been quiet, spoke up.
Rankster flicked a glance at Elizabeth and retracted his hand. He nodded and took a step back.
Fox saw a glimpse of hope and agitatedly said to Elizabeth, “Elizabeth, I have been good to you. Please spare me, spare me… I will be your slave in the future…”
“I’ll give you one chance. I’ll see you on the Frost Battlefield.” Elizabeth looked at Fox coldly. “You may leave if you win. You will die on the Frost Battlefield if you lose.”
“This…” All the elders looked at Elizabeth with shock.
However, Rankster smiled. That was indeed his daughter.
