Chapter 388 Wines
Shen Yuan ignored her comment and looked at the list of manuals. Inside Shen Yuan's mind, lines of golden script flickered into being, revealing the System Store's interface.
A thin, semi-translucent panel expanded, displaying various "Wine Brewing" legacies as if it were a neatly curated catalog.
Yue Lan's loud snickering could still be heard in the background, but Shen Yuan simply ignored her as he scrolled through the legacies.
"Ugh, there are too many." He groaned, looking at so many of them. "Select five at random that will be best for me."

Bing Rong opened her mouth to ask what he meant, but Shen Yuan had already connected before she could do it.
[Oh my, Yuan'er finally remembered his poor mother? I thought you forgot about me after getting two new little wives.]
Shen Yuan smiled helplessly. "Mom, you know it's not like that. I was just busy running all over the place."
[I see, I see. So my dear Yuan'er is so busy that he doesn't even have enough time for his own mother.]
"...Mom, are you jealous?" he slowly asked.
[Hehe, why would I be jealous of little girls?]
Her giggling voice sounded inside his head.
Shen Yuan exhaled a helpless sigh. "Do you mind coming over here? I need a little help."
[Sure thinggg. I'll be there in a bit.]
Shen Yuan smiled lightly before closing the link from Harem Connect.
"Hehe, looks like she also wants some attention." Bing Rong chuckled, looking at Shen Yuan's face.
"Anyways, I should quickly finish this wine for now. The rest of the matters can wait for later." He quickly picked up the jug and began drinking directly from it.
"Yuan'er~"
A sweet, seductive voice sounded from behind him. A milky-white hand extended from both sides of his neck before someone hugged him from behind.
Shen Yuan almost spat out his wine as he hurriedly pulled his hand down and felt the heavy jugs placed on his back. "Mom, were you standing outside?"
"Hehe," she softly giggled before inhaling a long breath. "Hmmm~ I missed you so much." She rubbed her cheeks against his.
Shen Yuan calmed down and placed the jug on the table before lightly placing his hand on top of hers. "I missed you as well, Mom."
Shen Yuxin removed her hands from his chest and stood up before walking in front of him. "Hmm, it feels like I haven't seen you in years."
He chuckled and pulled her hand. "Well, you aren't wrong. Each second away from you feels like years."
She sat down on his lap. "Hmm, I wish time stopped like this and we could spend eternity together."
Shen Yuan patted her back and closed his eyes in enjoyment. "Well, even if we can't spend an eternity, spending a few years is totally doable."
Yuxin's eyes lit up as she moved a little back. "Are you talking about your Dual Cultivation Chambers?"
He nodded. "Yes. I already told you that it can change the flow of time before, and you experienced it during your seclusion as well. But we just didn't properly use it before."
Yuxin laughed mischievously. "Hehe, it will be fun."
Bing Rong lightly coughed, seeing the two of them getting lost in their own world. "Master, Yuan'er had some work—that's why he called you."
Yuxin slightly turned her head and smiled at her. "Oh? Why such a hurry? Are you getting jealous?"
Bing Rong's eye twitched, and she turned her head to the side. Shen Yuan chuckled and looked at Bing Rong for a second. "She is right, Mom. I indeed have something that I need your help with. And it's quite urgent."
Yuxin's expression turned serious. She looked at Shen Yuan and asked, "What is it? Did someone outside the sect bully you?" Her body emitted a slightly cold aura as soon as this thought crossed her mind.
Shen Yuan hurriedly shook his head. "Nothing like that, it's something else." He took a deep breath. "First, I need to tell you about the Pagoda as well as the Silver Fox Sect."
