Chapter 74

After walking out of the kitchen, a feeling of something being wrong arose in Bai Cangze's heart.

Why does Ji Mingqing feel weird?

In the kitchen, Ji Mingqing felt Xiaowan walking away, and then he couldn't help the joy in his heart and hummed happily.

From now on, stay at home. Otherwise, I'll just let him do whatever he wants! Xiaowan promised this herself!

Hehe, I’ll go suck in my stomach in a moment!

After calculating that the time was about right, Ji Mingqing extinguished the flame in the refining furnace, opened the lid, and a rich smell of cake hit him in the face.

Ji Mingqing smelled the sweet scent and couldn't help but sigh, "I miss it so much..."

It has been almost a year since he came to the fairyland. If it weren't for the cake he made specially today, Ji Mingqing would not have realized how much he missed this taste.

He took out the cake from the refining furnace, put half of the small cake for Xiaowan on a plate, and put the other half into the storage bag.

"Komaru! Look at the cake I just made!"

Bai Cangze's patrol was interrupted by Ji Mingqing's voice. He raised his eyes and looked at Ji Mingqing, and noticed the plate in Ji Mingqing's hand. The smell of the food in the plate was the same smell he had smelled beside the refining furnace just now.

"What is this?" Bai Cangze stood up and jumped to the stone table.

"It's the cake I just told you about, the one made with eggs, from my hometown." Ji Mingqing pushed the plate in front of Xiaowan. "Try it, you'll definitely like it."

Bai Cangze picked up a piece of cake with his claws, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it with a frown.

The texture was a bit strange, as he rarely ate something so soft, but after tasting it, he found that it was actually not bad.

Ji Mingqing also picked up a cake and stuffed it into his mouth. "I haven't made it for a long time. I almost forgot about it."

"Take out the scroll. After signing a contract with Tiandao, you can sell it in the restaurant." Bai Cangze reminded after swallowing the food in his mouth.

Ji Mingqing waved his hand. "There's no rush. I still have a lot of things to prepare. I'll sign after I've prepared everything else. This way I can save a few scrolls."

Even though Ji Mingqing was no longer financially strapped, he still maintained his frugal habits. Just as he was feeling smug, a pile of scrolls appeared in front of him.

"These are all for you. I don't need them. Don't bother about these little things in the future." Bai Cangze didn't even raise his head, but lowered his head to eat the cake on the plate, but he couldn't help but observe Ji Mingqing's expression with his spiritual sense.

"Oh my god, so many!" Ji Mingqing's eyes widened. Xiaowan was really...

Ji Mingqing took Xiaowan into his arms regardless of anything and kissed her several times. Bai Cangze pushed Ji Mingqing with his paw and wanted to refuse, but was rejected by Ji Mingqing's words.

"Didn't you say you'd stay home with me?"

Bai Cangze: "...I finally understand why I felt something was wrong when I walked out of the kitchen."

"Xiao Wan, you are so generous. Why do you give so many gifts? There are jade slips laying on the ground in our backyard now. There are so many scrolls that I can't use them all."

Although there was some anger in Ji Mingqing's words, anyone could hear the joy in his tone.

He was happily rubbing the cat as he prepared to bury his entire face in Maru's belly, wanting to suck it in deeply.

Bai Cangze jumped three feet high as soon as he felt his movements. Why did Ji Mingqing always do something more excessive when he thought he would not go any further?

Ji Mingqing was not surprised by Xiaowan's departure. He naturally put all the scrolls in front of him into the storage bag, then patted the table, picked up a piece of cake, and said to Xiaowan calmly, "Come, eat cake."

At this moment, Ji Mingqing remembered that when he ate cake in a cake shop, he always had a cup of slightly bitter coffee on hand. It was a pity that he had not found anything with a similar taste in the fairy world.

But tea is also good. Ji Mingqing poured a cup for Xiaowan, "If you feel a little greasy, you can drink some tea to neutralize it."

Seeing that Xiaowan still didn't move, Ji Mingqing laughed helplessly, "Come here, I won't suck your belly anymore."

Bai Cangze then slowly turned around. He returned to face Ji Mingqing and sternly reminded him, "Don't be too presumptuous at home."

Hearing this, Ji Mingqing couldn't help but laugh. He rubbed Xiaowan's head, then picked up a piece of cake and put it next to Xiaowan's mouth.

"Okay, I got it. Have another piece."

Looking at Ji Mingqing's smiling face, Bai Cangze couldn't get angry at all, and he couldn't put on the airs he had in front of others. He sighed inwardly and opened his mouth to let Ji Mingqing feed him.

"I'll be out for a bit and send a portion of the cake to the restaurant. I'll have them try it and give me some suggestions. We'll have dinner together tonight!"

Ji Ming was very mysterious, and Bai Cangze did not ask much. After he finished eating, he returned to his "cat's nest" and continued to patrol the fairyland with his eyes closed.

In Ji Mingqing's eyes, this behavior seemed like Xiaowan was going back obediently to wait for him, which made him feel soft-hearted.

He hurried to the restaurant, gave the food to Xu Yihe, said to him, "Please give me some suggestions," and then left the restaurant in a hurry.

His destination was a restaurant at the foot of Yuantaopo Mountain.

Since this restaurant is mainly for couples, the atmosphere must be maximized. Ji Mingqing came here just to decorate it and then experience it himself, and then find out if there is anything that can be improved.

However, in order to prepare the knowledge about the atmosphere, he could only rely on the plots he had seen in TV dramas before and the details of his date with his girlfriend that he heard from his roommate in the dormitory.

With flowers and music, Ji Mingqing might not be able to do it perfectly, but he still used what he had to decorate a room that looked very suitable for a couple's date.

After everything was done, Ji Mingqing returned to the yard and saw Xiaowan was still sleeping, so he didn't disturb her.

Bai Cangze sensed Ji Mingqing's presence and wanted to see what he was doing, but he found that Ji Mingqing had just gone to the backyard and started looking through the jade slips on the ground one by one.

It’s not that he didn’t want to collect these jade slips, but he had already sorted them all into categories and wanted to show them to Ji Mingqing as soon as possible.

I don’t know if Ji Mingqing can realize that I am doing it right.

Bai Cangze's thoughts drifted away, while Ji Mingqing was looking at the jade slip in the backyard with a headache.

How should he choose from so many jade slips?

It is impossible to learn them all, that would take tens of thousands of years. Moreover, each immortal can only choose one immortal technique as his or her own innate immortal technique, but can learn several other secondary immortal techniques.

Ji Mingqing flipped through the jade slips for a long time and only finished reading two. He didn't know what kind of magic was suitable for him, but he could also feel that the two he had just read were not suitable for him.

Maybe this is why he is not destined to be with me.

Ji Mingqing was not in a hurry. Bai Cangze appeared in the backyard at this time. He looked at Ji Mingqing carefully stacking the jade slips he had prepared in front of him, and a strange sense of satisfaction rose in his heart.

"If you think this thing is not suitable, just put it aside. The immortal method of destiny requires fate."

"Then you are my destiny!" Ji Ming smiled after hearing Xiao Wan's words, "You found all of these for me. I couldn't have done it without you."

Bai Cangze lowered his head and muttered, "Why are you always so outspoken?" Then he raised his voice and said to Ji Mingqing, "Aren't we going to have dinner? Let's go now."

"Okay!" Ji Mingqing put the jade slips he had discarded into an empty storage bag, and then picked up a few that he had not read and put them into his own personal storage bag.

"Let's go." Ji Mingqing straightened his clothes and patted his shoulder. Bai Cangze jumped up automatically and consciously. As they walked on the road, Ji Mingqing couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Komaru, how old are you?"

"have no idea."

Bai Cangze did not give any pretense. He really did not know his own age. It might be 20,000, or it might be 100,000. Who knows?

Time is the least valuable thing to him.

"You've lived too long to actually have such a problem." Ji Mingqing said with a smile, "But you're so old, and you don't even have a girlfriend or anything."

Bai Cangze retorted unconvincedly: "Don't you have any too?"

"I'm only twenty-two. It's normal to be single at twenty-two." Ji Mingqing touched his nose. "But I don't need to remember my age anymore. I'll always be twenty-two."

Bai Cangze then realized how Ji Mingqing came to the Immortal Realm. He was stunned for a moment, sighed and comforted him, "If you can see the Lord in the future, you can ask him to take you back to the time when the accident happened."

"Of course!"
