Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“After Xu Xian, who had been imprisoned in Jinshan Temple, discovered that his wife was suppressed under Thunder Summit Tower and could never escape, he willingly became a monk at Jinshan Temple. Every day, he would venture outside Thunder Summit Tower to sweep away the dead branches and leaves surrounding the tower for the snake demon until his last breath.”

This myth is commonly known as the “Legend of the White Snake.” While there are various versions of the story, Liao Ning, a devoted enthusiast, particularly favored this rendition.

This particular portrayal of the male protagonist, Xu Xian, aptly depicted a deeply infatuated man. It skillfully showcased his willingness to sacrifice everything for the sake of love, captivating the audience.

“Such a remarkable tale! It truly is an exceptional story. I hope it can grace the pages of my magazine and reach a wider audience within the alliance!” Liu Mu’s weathered eyes sparkled as she gazed at Liao Ning, brimming with enthusiasm.

Liao Ning nodded, wearing a smile. “Absolutely. This myth has been documented in ancient texts, a testament to the wisdom of our ancestors. As their descendants, it brings us great joy to elevate these stories and introduce them to a larger audience.”

Receiving Liao Ning’s affirmative response, Liu Mu couldn’t contain her joy, fidgeting with excitement. “Liao Ning, you are simply born to be a storyteller. This tale is enthralling and profound, but without your masterful storytelling, it wouldn’t have touched the audience’s hearts so deeply! ”

Liao Ning smiled, choosing not to refute Liu Mu’s praise. After all, in her previous life, there existed a profession known as “storyteller” in the country she lived in. They possessed the remarkable ability to transform ordinary stories into captivating narratives by accurately capturing the emotions of their audience. Every tale became unforgettable.

“When this article is published in the magazine, it will need to be signed.

Would you prefer to use your real name or an exclusive pen name?” Liu Mu

inquired.

Liao Ning pondered for a moment and replied, “Let’s opt for a pen name. I prefer not to draw too much attention, so let’s go with ‘Storyteller’.”

‘”Storyteller,’ it is then. I’ll make a note of it. I hope you’ll consider submitting more manuscripts to our magazine in your free time. The alliance is in great need of such exceptional stories,” Liu Mu jotted down the chosen pen name with her pen.

Liao Ning suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to mention the name of the story. “Oh, I forgot to tell you earlier. The story we heard today is called

‘Legend of the White Snake’.”

“Legend of the White Snake? Is it because the female protagonist is a white snake?” Ning Ling, looking up to her idol Liao Ning, asked curiously.

Liao Ning nodded in affirmation. “Yes, that’s right.”

“Well, today’s storytelling session was quite fruitful. I won’t be having dinner at the hotel tonight. I need to rush back and organize this story so that I can publish it in next month’s magazine,” Liu Mu said, bidding farewell to Liao Ning and Ning Ling. “You two are remarkable children. We’ll meet again next time!”

“Is Professor Liu leaving? I wanted you to taste my cooking!” Ning Ling expressed a hint of regret.

Liu Mu smiled joyfully and replied, “I’ll definitely try your cooking next time!”

Upon hearing this promise, Ning Ling’s face immediately lit up with happiness. “Alright! Goodbye, Professor Liu!”

“Take care, Senior Liu,” Liao Ning respectfully saw Liu Mu off and then proceeded to the hotel’s kitchen with Ning Ling to check on everyone’s progress for the day. The hotel had been receiving a lot of guests lately, and she was concerned that her staff might be overworked, although she didn’t voice her worries.

As the boss, it was crucial for her to prioritize the well-being of her employees. She couldn’t simply focus on managing the hotel in a Chinese way; a more holistic approach would be beneficial for the hotel’s long- term development.

Upon reaching the kitchen, Liao Ning realized that everyone seemed to be in high spirits while working. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she didn’t observe any signs of stress or fatigue among the staff.

As the school day was coming to an end, Liao Ning left the hotel and headed to the school to pick up the children.

“Aunt!”

“Young Aunt!”

The two children came out of school earlier than usual that day. As they exited the school gate, they immediately began searching for Butler Li. However, they accidentally spotted Liao Ning waiting outside the gate and joyfully rushed towards her like two little cannonballs.

Previously, Zhou Ling and Liao Ning had been too occupied to pick up the children from school, so they had entrusted the task to the butler.

“Let me see if the two of you have been eating well at school lately.” Liao Ning gently pinched the cubs’ cheeks. After confirming that they had consumed the lunchboxes she prepared for them, she smiled. “Well done, well done. You two are becoming even more adorable.”

“Of course! We have Young Aunt’s special lunchboxes!” Mili boasted proudly.

The wolf cub also appeared quite smug. “Other children are envious of Mili and me..”
