Chapter 103

"Aze is waiting for you outside, are you really not going out?" Ji Lin asked teasingly as she looked at Ji Mingqing who was lingering in the room.

When Ji Mingqing came back that day, he looked dazed. When I asked him what had happened, he hesitated and didn't answer.

However, Bai Cangze's behavior of walking in and calling her "mother" that day really scared her.

Ji Lin couldn't help but laugh as he recalled the chaotic scene of that day. He also remembered Ji Mingqing punching Bai Cangze in anger, but Bai Cangze was confused as to why Ji Mingqing had punched him.

"The book says that after meeting the parents, you should address them as Dad and Mom. You just told me to follow the book's instructions. Are you wrong again this time?"

Ji Mingqing was really at his wit's end. He was practically driven crazy by the book in Baifenzi's mouth. It seemed as if this book was written specifically to contradict him.

"You and I haven't gotten married yet, that is, we haven't signed a contract yet, and you are not my official partner yet, so you can't call my mom mother, do you understand?" Ji Mingqing explained with his last bit of patience.

Bai Cangze pondered, "Then when are you going to sign the contract with me?"

Ji Mingqing: "..."

To this day, Ji Mingqing has been avoiding Bai Cangze. Bai Cangze also knows it, and he just goes along with Ji Mingqing's thoughts. The book says that when Ji Mingqing calms down, he will naturally appear.

Although Ji Mingqing didn't allow him to follow the methods in the book, Bai Cangze still couldn't help but guess Ji Mingqing's thoughts based on the contents of the book.

Anyway, as long as Ji Mingqing doesn’t know about it, it will be fine.

"Aze, Auntie made some mung bean soup, come in and have some." Ji Lin warmly invited Bai Cangze in. After hearing what Ji Lin said, Ji Ming immediately stomped his feet at Ji Lin and looked at her with some resentment.

Ji Lin was unmoved. She looked at Bai Cangze who was guarding the door and said more enthusiastically, "Auntie made a lot. We can't finish it between the two of us. It's just right for the three of us. Don't waste it."

"It won't go bad if it's kept in the storage bag!" Ji Mingqing lowered his head and scratched the table, muttering to himself in a voice that everyone could hear.

Seeing Ji Mingqing's reluctance, Bai Cangze hesitated for a moment before stepping into the courtyard, but finally walked in and sat next to Ji Mingqing.

Ji Lin smiled and poured a bowl for Bai Cangze, "He really loves mung bean soup. He likes it even better if you add some crushed ice to it. It's a pity we don't have any at home. Aze, you know..."

Before Ji Lin could finish her words, a large bowl of ice appeared on the table. Bai Cangze moved his fingers and the ice turned into crushed ice.

Bai Cangze pushed the bowl in front of Ji Mingqing and asked cautiously, "Do you want to add some?"

It is impossible to say that Ji Ming is not soft-hearted, but Bai Cangze is really hateful. He wanted to keep Bai Cangze hanging for a few days, but he saw Bai Cangze lowering his head, looking a little lost, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Ji Mingqing sighed and pushed his bowl in front of Bai Cangze, "Add some ice to it."

Bai Cangze's eyes lit up, and he immediately took the bowl. Obediently, he followed Ji Mingqing's instructions and added crushed ice to the bowl little by little. At the same time, he didn't forget to ask considerately, "Is this enough?"

Even Ji Lin, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand it anymore. She patted Ji Mingqing's shoulder and said with some complaints, "Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, go out with Aze to check the inn. Let Aze help you check if there are any problems. It will open tomorrow. Don't waste time at home."

Ji Mingqing turned around and looked at Bai Cangze. Bai Cangze's eyes were bright and shining. This look was particularly similar to the look he had when he first met Xiaowan, which hit him instantly.

Ji Mingqing lowered his head, picked up the spoon, and haphazardly stuffed the green bean paste in the bowl into his mouth. Bai Cangze also took out a handkerchief at this time. He looked at Ji Mingqing and reminded him, "Eat slowly, don't rush."

Ji Mingqing immediately lost his temper. He stood up and said to Ji Lin, "Mom, I'm leaving. I'll be back for dinner tonight. I want to eat cola chicken wings."

There was no Coke in the fairyland before, which made Ji Mingqing very depressed. This time when he went to the small world to buy things, he did not forget to buy hundreds of boxes of various drinks. Now he didn't feel sorry at all when asking Ji Lin to make Coke chicken wings for him.

After saying that, Ji Mingqing pulled Bai Cangze out the door. After they reached the door, Bai Cangze stopped. Jin Mingxian saw that he couldn't pull him, so he turned around and asked in confusion: "Why don't you leave?"

Bai Cangze looked at Ji Mingqing who was holding his sleeve, frowned slightly and said, "Why don't you hold my hand?"

After listening to Bai Cangze's question, Ji Ming was speechless. He was still angry!

Bai Cangze understood the emotions in Ji Mingqing's eyes without Ji Mingqing saying anything. He stood in front of Ji Mingqing, lowered his head, and held Ji Mingqing's face with both hands. Ji Mingqing was startled and wanted to take a step back, but Bai Cangze stopped him and whispered.

"If we don't kiss, we can't even hold hands?" Bai Cangze frowned after saying this, revealing a look of confusion and regret. "I've never been with anyone else. Everything I know comes from various books. If anything makes you uncomfortable, please tell me, and then reject me. I will apologize."

Looking at Bai Cangze who was so serious, Ji Mingqing could no longer be angry, but he still had not forgotten what Bai Cangze had done before. However, he was in the mood to remind him at this moment.

"Next time, don't kiss me for so long when I'm not ready. You kissed me for 25 minutes that day and my lips are swollen."

Although Bai Cangze later used his lips to pass some spiritual energy to reduce his swelling, this could not make up for what Bai Cangze had done!

"Actually, it's more than half an hour. According to the time of the small world, it's about one hour and fifteen minutes." Bai Cangze replied seriously.

"That long?" Ji Mingqing tilted his head in confusion, but then realized he had missed the point. "Next time if I say stop, you must stop! It absolutely can't be like last time!"

The feeling that time was really too much. Ji Mingqing felt like a fish struggling in a hot spring, about to suffocate slowly in his familiar environment, but the whole process was intoxicating and fascinating.

And he almost lost his composure! But fortunately, Bai Langzi didn't seem to notice his unusualness. All his attention was on his lips, as if they were some kind of delicacy that was intoxicating.

"Okay, I understand." Bai Cangze agreed readily. Ji Mingqing then took Bai Cangze's hand again. Bai Cangze took the opportunity to hold their fingers together. Seeing that Ji Mingqing did not refuse, he couldn't help but curled up the corners of his mouth.

After arriving at the inn, I found that many people were busy in the inn. Tomorrow is the opening day of the inn. Ji Mingqing has been warming up for a long time this time. He even made a video recording before the opening to show the different styles of the 123-story inn.

This time, he used not only paper flyers for promotion, but also jade slips. The jade slips contained images of the inn and the various scenery in Fengxi Garden. One could tell at a glance that he had put a lot of thought into it.

"My lord, Ji...Boss Ji." After seeing the two men shaking hands tightly, Cui Ding calmly looked away, turned around and pointed at the huge plaque and said.

"This plaque was written by Xu Yihe. What do you think of it, Boss Ji?" Ji Mingqing looked at the majestic Fengxi Inn and couldn't help but applaud. "It's really well written! Let's cover it with red cloth now and wait for tomorrow's opening ceremony."

Cui Ding raised his eyebrows, as if Ji Mingqing was praising him. "Okay, I'll put it up later. I want them to see how beautiful the handwriting is first."

After hearing this, Bai Cangze looked at the red cloth beside him and covered the plaque with a wave of his hand. "If you want to appreciate it, go back to the restaurant and Yuantaopo. Don't waste time here."

Cui Ding immediately lost his temper, but Bai Cangze didn't care. He turned around and looked at Ji Mingqing: "Let's go in and take a look."

Ji Mingqing nodded and patted Cui Ding on the shoulder when he passed by him. Everything was said without words.

After entering the inn, Ji Mingqing began his final inspection. He and Bai Cangze carefully checked each layer of the formation and each facility with the floor number "one" to see if there were any problems.

In fact, Bai Cangze and Ji Mingqing had checked everything several times over the past few days, but today was the final test. The two of them couldn't help but be extremely alert and checked everything carefully from beginning to end until they were sure there was no mistake.

"I feel like there really aren't any omissions this time." Ji Mingqing wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead and said with some relaxation.

Bai Cangze took out a bowl of mung bean soup. Ji Mingqing was a little surprised: "Why did you take out a bowl of mung bean soup when you went out? I didn't see you take it."

Bai Cangze smiled at Ji Mingqing in an enigmatic manner, "Whatever you want, I will find a way to get it for you."

Ji Mingqing smiled as he drank the mung bean soup and teased, "I think you took out the bowl my mom gave you while I was out."

Bai Cangze didn't care about being exposed. Instead, he raised his hand and wanted to pinch Ji Mingqing's white earlobe. However, when his hand just touched Ji Mingqing's shoulder, Bai Cangze suddenly hesitated.

He stopped, moved closer to Ji Mingqing, and asked in a low voice, "Can I touch your earlobe?"

Ji Mingqing was satisfied with Bai Cangze's progress. He nodded and agreed, "Okay, you can touch it."

With Ji Mingqing's permission, Bai Cangze seemed to come alive immediately. He gently pinched Ji Mingqing's earlobe with his thumb and index finger. Ji Mingqing's earlobe was soft, smooth and plump, and would turn pink when touched. Once you touched it, you wouldn't want to let go.

Ji Mingqing originally thought that there was nothing to play with the earlobe, so Bai Cangze just touched it. However, Bai Cangze's movements became more and more affectionate. The originally normal movement took on a hint of other meaning in his hands.

"Okay, I'm done." Ji Mingqing stuffed the empty bowl back into Bai Cangze's hand. Bai Cangze withdrew his hand with some regret and put the bowl away.

"Let's just leave this place to Cui Ding and Xu Yihe. Shaoyang and Su Jinglin are also helping. We have nothing to do here. Let's go back and rest early and get up early tomorrow morning." Ji Mingqing was embarrassed to look at Bai Cangze's face. He just hooked Bai Cangze's hand with his little finger, shook it slightly, and then said.

"Will you still be waiting for me at my door tomorrow morning?"

Bai Cangze shook his head and said, "I'll wait for you in the dormitory."

Ji Mingqing stayed in the dormitory these two days, but he got up very early in the morning just to have breakfast with Ji Lin.

Ji Mingqing nodded. This time, the two of them did not go downstairs through the formation, but walked down the stairs step by step. Bai Cangze did this just to prolong the time they were alone together. Unexpectedly, Ji Mingqing did not refuse. This was a pleasant surprise for him.

After walking a few floors, Ji Mingqing felt a little bored. He pulled Bai Cangze and walked towards the formation, but was pulled back by Bai Cangze.

"Why do we need to go to the formation?"

"Because I find it boring." Ji Mingqing shrugged. "We just walked down the stairs in circles without talking. It was really boring, so I thought I'd just set up a formation and go home early to eat the cola chicken wings my mom made."

Bai Cangze tsk, "Are you bored?"

Ji Mingqing nodded honestly, and the next moment Bai Cangze grabbed Ji Mingqing's waist and pulled him into his arms.

Ji Mingqing let out a light cry, and then Bai Cangze's action of holding the back of his head set off alarm bells in his heart.

As a result, Bai Cangze just lifted Ji Mingqing's head, and lowered his own head. The two foreheads touched together, their breaths entangled, and the temperature around them suddenly increased.

"I want to kiss you." Bai Cangze stated his needs bluntly, "You are the partner I have chosen. I will only have you in my life, so can I kiss you now?"

Ji Mingqing tightened his grip on Bai Cangze's back, "Did you learn this from a book?"

Bai Cangze chuckled after hearing this, and then he answered truthfully: "Of course it's not taught in the book, it's my real thoughts."

Bai Cangze's voice was low, and Ji Mingqing even felt that the voice caused a slight vibration in his ears, making his ears slightly itchy.

"What does the book say you should do now?" Ji Mingqing raised his eyes and looked directly into Bai Cangze's eyes, but just this one glance made him realize that Bai Cangze, who had been as white as the snow on the top of a mountain before, now had a trace of an inextinguishable fire in his eyes.

"The book says that I should proceed step by step and take my time, but I can't do it." Bai Cangze said word by word. At this moment, the chicken star immediately understood what "ear pregnancy" meant. Before, when he heard those voices on the Internet, he just thought they were ordinary and nice, and there was not a ripple in his heart.

But at this moment he was truly conquered. When Bai Cangze asked again, "Can I be closer to you?", Ji Mingqing nodded in agreement without any resistance.

Bai Cangze's palms were sweating after getting permission. He had just prepared himself to be rejected, but he didn't expect Ji Mingqing to agree to his request.

Bai Cangze lowered his head without thinking, but he didn't dare to be as intense as last time. He only dared to do it lightly, just like a child who got a candy he liked but was only willing to take a few bites. He licked Ji Mingqing's lips lightly.

On the contrary, Ji Mingqing was a little uncomfortable with this superficial intimacy. He waited for Bai Cangze to use more force, but Bai Cangze seemed to have obtained a fun but fragile toy and did not dare to use any strength at all.

Ji Mingqing suddenly felt a little annoyed. He pinched Bai Cangze's waist, moved forward with force, and at the same time bit Bai Cangze viciously.

"Are you still a man?" How can you hold back in this situation?

Bai Cangze tightened his arms and immediately returned to his previous offensive stance, which only made Ji Mingqing gasp repeatedly. Taking the opportunity to take a breath, he pushed Bai Cangze away and said, "Alright, if you keep going like this, you won't get a next time."

The satisfied Bai Cangze put his chin on Ji Mingqing's shoulder and hugged Ji Mingqing tightly, with a smile on his face.

Ji Mingqing took this opportunity to practice some magic spells to make Bai Cangze realize how useless he was - his legs had just gone weak again.

"Okay, let's go home and have dinner." Ji Mingqing waved his hand, and the two returned to the first floor. There were people on the first floor, so it was not appropriate for the two to be too close, but Bai Cangze still held Ji Mingqing's hand tightly and announced their relationship to others.

Although the relationship between these two people is no longer a secret.

The next morning, when Ji Mingqing opened the door, he saw Bai Cangze standing at his door, which scared him.

"What are you doing here so early?" Ji Ming leaned back and took a step. Bai Cangze scared away all his sleepiness, which made him completely and totally awake.

"I'm here to pick you up. Aunt Ji cooked porridge for you this morning. She also made tofu stew and braised eggplant with sauce."

"Did you make tofu stew?" Ji Mingqing was a little excited. He rubbed his hands, then looked at Bai Cangze and asked curiously, "How do you know what my mother made?"

Bai Cangze took Ji Mingqing's hand and walked out the door, explaining as he walked, "I went to ask Aunt Ji first, and then came to see you."

"Isn't this a menu you two came up with?" Ji Mingqing said casually, but Bai Cangze nodded solemnly and replied, "Indeed, I also taught her how to use the scroll to sign a contract with the Heavenly Dao, just like I taught you before."

Hearing this, Ji Mingqing couldn't help but smile, "This way you won't be afraid that the recipes of the Immortal Realm will be monopolized by my family. Monopolizing everything is not a good thing."

"I've already had each family engrave their secrets on scrolls and sign a contract with the Heavenly Dao. It's not just Feng Xiyuan, so there won't be any problems in the future."

"You think so comprehensively, are you afraid that I will be targeted?" Ji Mingqing smiled and pinched Bai Cangze's fingers, sighing in his heart that Bai Cangze is indeed a meticulous person. If only he were not so...

Thinking of Bai Cangze's enthusiasm, which was like a beast out of a cage, Ji Mingqing shuddered.

After dinner, Ji Mingqing brought Ji Lin to the inn. Ji Mingqing invited Ji Lin to help him with the accounts. Ji Lin had been an accountant all her life, so this amount of accounts should be no problem for her.

Moreover, it was Ji Lin who took the initiative to ask Ji Mingqing to help. Before, Ji Mingqing just wanted Ji Lin to practice well and become a free immortal without being burdened by work. Unexpectedly, Ji Lin really liked the accounting industry and really wanted to help Ji Mingqing. She couldn't rest at all.

However, the two of them agreed that even though Ji Lin had to help out at Fengxi Garden during the day, Ji Mingqing would still urge Ji Lin to practice at night. Ji Lin even smiled and said, "Did Aze urge you to practice in the same way back then?"

Ji Mingqing recalled it and couldn't help laughing out loud. Yes, Bai Cangze's behavior at that time was exactly the same as his current behavior.

After practicing, Ji Lin's physical condition improved greatly. When a few people arrived at the inn, no one had come yet.

"The official opening time is still quarter of an hour. What if no one comes today?" Ji Lin said nervously as he looked at the empty square.

After saying that, Ji Lin said "Pah, pah, pah" three times, "We will definitely have a lot of guests coming today. Mom was wrong just now."

Ji Mingqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Mom, you're a fairy now, and you're still superstitious. Don't worry. Fairies usually appear at the last moment, and their magical instruments will arrive at their destination at a specific time."

Ji Lin heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Ji Mingqing's explanation, not knowing that this was the experience Ji Mingqing had summarized from previous times. If it had not been like this every time the business opened, Ji Mingqing might be as panicked as Ji Lin now.

"Someone's coming!" Ji Lin excitedly pointed in a direction. After a closer look, she said with a bit of disappointment, "It's Xiao Cui and Xiao Xu."

Ji Mingqing held Ji Lin's hand tightly. "Mom, you really don't have to worry. We will definitely bring it here. If no one comes, let Aze order them to come to my place as guests. The whole fairy world listens to Aze's words, and they dare not not come."

Originally, he wanted to make Ji Lin relax a little, but just as Ji Mingqing finished speaking, Bai Cangze, who was standing beside him, said as if he had suddenly realized something: "So this is actually possible!"

It's like opening the door to a new world.

Ji Mingqing pushed Bai Cangze's arm hard, "No, we can't do this. Not only do you let the people from Kunze Palace come to work for me, but you also want to force other immortals. Aren't you afraid that they will rise up in rebellion?"

Bai Cangze answered seriously: "They can't beat me, they don't dare."

Before Ji Mingqing could refute, Ji Lin beside him said with some emotion: "Luckily Mingming has Aze by his side, otherwise there would be no one to make Mingming relax during such a tense time."

Cui Ding and Xu Yihe's faces froze when they heard Ji Lin's words. It seemed that she really didn't think this was something Bai Cangze could do.

"Hey! Someone is coming!" He shouted excitedly as he saw a high-end car with a white background and gold threads flying from a distance.

"Don't worry, Mom. Look, someone's coming over there!"

The Duanyun car, which exuded a sense of wealth inside and out, was parked in the yard at the entrance of the inn. Soon the car door opened and Ji Mingqing saw a familiar face.

"Huang Dingzhi!" Ji Mingqing ran forward excitedly and shook Huang Dingzhi's hand. "Isn't your home very far from here? How come you can come here when you have time?"

Huang Dingzhi saw Ji Mingqing, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and wanted to give Ji Mingqing a hug. However, when he opened his arms, he found that he could not move forward at all.

Ji Mingqing patted Huang Dingzhi's hand somewhat awkwardly, then turned around and gave Bai Cangze a warning look. Then he faced Huang Dingzhi and said happily.

"You've come just in time. I'll show you the little fairy beasts you entrusted to me. They're now being kept in this inn!"
