"Are these two celebrities or models? Or are they from a prestigious family? They're just too perfect."

"Ahhh, it's like a dream, how can there be such a perfect person?"

"I am satisfied with my life."

"If he could help out in our shop, business would definitely be great."

The shop manager, a mature woman in her thirties, couldn't resist Xiu Qiyu's charm. She even put down what she was making to personally serve Xiu Qiyu, carefully explaining the design concept and taste of each dessert, even revealing the ingredients.

Xiu Qiyu nodded slightly, indicating whether she could try the food.

Ye Xiruo's lips twitched. Apart from new products, she had never seen a dessert shop offer free samples.

However, the shop manager, with her short red hair, voluptuous figure, and alluring face, actually nodded and immediately instructed the staff to prepare. This thoughtfulness surprised Ye Xiruo as well.

Indeed, good looks are everything.

Xiu Qiyu unceremoniously sampled several of her favorite cakes, and finally picked out seven or eight kinds of cakes: "Ten of each kind, please."

"I'm sorry, our cakes and desserts are all made to order and we don't have that many. If it's convenient for you, you can leave your address and we will provide delivery service."

“Then pack up all the existing stock. This is our address.” It was Ye Xiruo who spoke up this time.

Although Xiu Qiyu had tried her best to restrain herself, she still left the store carrying two large bags full of sweets.

Xiu Qiyu spent a lot of time in the shop, and many girls who passed by the dessert shop took a peek and immediately discovered a new world.

She rushed in and pretended to slowly pick out desserts, her eyes practically glued to Xiu Qiyu. Before she knew it, she had taken quite a few desserts.

The sales assistants' eyes were squinting with smiles; this was the charm of a handsome man, unimaginable, truly a feast for the eyes.

Fortunately, Xiu Qiyu went in with Ye Xiruo, so others assumed he was buying it for Ye Xiruo.

After buying the desserts, it was still early, so the two decided to go shopping. Right now, all they had was the outfit they were wearing.

They found a quiet, secluded spot, put the desserts they were holding into their spatial rings, and went to a shopping mall that looked pretty good.

Upon entering, the two of them, especially Xiu Qiyu, were immediately surrounded by enthusiastic sales staff. With his looks, physique, and demeanor, he would probably be handsome even if a bed sheet were draped over him.

Xiu Qiyu frowned. He could sense that these people meant no harm, but being stared at like that still made him uncomfortable. He subconsciously released a bit of his aura: "Thank you. I brought a stylist with me. I'll ask you for advice if I have any questions." After saying that, he pulled Ye Xiruo out from behind him.

Ye Xiruo: When did I become a fashion stylist? In my past life, I was the young lady of the Ye family my whole life. Designer clothes and bags were regularly delivered to the Ye family mansion. I rarely bought clothes outside. But whatever Brother Xiu Qi says goes!

The two started shopping. Ye Xiruo picked out five or six outfits, and Xiu Qiyu also took five or six outfits for herself.

"Go ahead, go ahead, try them all on, if they're nice we'll buy them all." Ye Xiruo laughed heartily.

Brother Xiu Qi's face is indeed the biggest cheat code; every outfit looks its best on him, shining perfectly.

A group of sales assistants who had been secretly following the two were now gaping in astonishment. Good heavens! No one had ever tried on clothes with such an effect. The great designer probably never imagined his designs could be so perfect—yes, absolutely perfect. If this handsome man were to become the brand ambassador, it wouldn't be long before the brand rose to the ranks of the world's top brands.

"How is it, Little Leaf?"

"Great, all of these sets are good, I'll buy them all."

Xiu Qiyu nodded. The clothes here are just ordinary fabrics and don't have any protective skills, but since everyone here dresses like this, it's best to follow local customs!

The two then went to the third floor to buy women's clothing. This time, Xiu Qiyu took ten sets at once, including dresses, suits, tops and bottoms, and accessories.

"Little Leaf, go try it on and see if it fits."

Ye Xiruo reluctantly went to the fitting room to try on clothes.

Unexpectedly, Brother Xiuqi has a good eye for fashion and taste. The clothes he picked out perfectly match her aesthetic: simple, elegant, and lively.

Ye Xiruo tried on all the clothes for an hour, and Xiu Qiyu nodded in satisfaction: "These will do for now, we can buy more later if we have the chance!"

After paying, the two apparently left their address so the mall could deliver the goods directly to their door.

I've bought the clothes, now all that's left is to eat.

What should we eat? Ye Xiruo hesitated for a moment.

"Brother Xiuqi, let's go eat fish! Fish head hot pot."

Xiu Qiyu nodded.

The two chose a private room. Ye Xiruo ordered spicy and sour fish, along with several small snacks and local specialties.

"Brother Xiu Qi, you should try it first."

She remembered that the cream bun was quite delicious, with a rich milky aroma, but Xiu Qiyu put down her chopsticks after taking one bite.

"What's wrong, Brother Xiu Qi?"

"Something was added to it that is detrimental to cultivation."

Well, food safety in China is indeed not very reassuring: "What will be the consequences of eating it?"

"We need to use spiritual energy to force the magazine out." The implication is that eating it will consume their spiritual energy.

"What about the cakes and desserts?"

"Same."

What kind of logic is this: "It's okay, we'll just have this one meal. We'll just go back and force them out, and that'll be the end of it. When we get back to the countryside in a couple of days, I'll go and buy some fresh ingredients and cook for Brother Xiu Qiyu myself, okay?"

Xiu Qiyu felt a little embarrassed by Ye Xiruo's gaze. Actually, for high-level cultivators, food like bread wasn't essential; a single Bigu Pill could sustain them for a long time. However, seeing Xiao Yezi's expectant eyes, Xiu Qiyu still nodded: "Okay."

Soon, the sauerkraut fish was served. Ye Xiruo had chosen wild blackfish; the milky white fish soup was topped with sauerkraut and red chili peppers, and the aroma alone was enough to whet one's appetite. Of course, it also looked very appealing.

"Brother Xiu Qi, have some soup first." Ye Xiruo ladled out two bowls of fish soup.

"Acceptable." To receive this rating, the fish at this restaurant must be of high quality.

The two ordered two black carp, each weighing about two pounds, so the pot was filled to the brim, but to them it was barely enough to fill a tooth gap. Indeed, cultivators can eat that much.
