Chapter 138 When a Mortal Remains (shuhaige.net)



Steaming hot buns, wontons sprinkled with scallions, sweet and sour sugar cakes, and crispy sesame-studded pastries...

Song Xiwei sat opposite Aoqian, watching him eat until his face was covered in food, looking like a little kitten.

In contrast, Song Xiwei had small, delicate mouths, making her incredibly pretty.

Aoqian suddenly felt that he looked terrible in comparison to Song Xiwei.

It made him look like a reincarnated starving ghost.

He took a steamed bun and handed it to Song Xiwei with a dissatisfied expression, "One bite at a time, that's the only way to get the right flavor!"

"My mouth isn't that big, Young Master!" Song Xi said, slightly distressed.

"You mean, I have a big mouth?" Aoqian rolled his eyes at her speechlessly.

Song Xiwei touched her stomach and said, "I'm actually full."

"Why do you eat like a woman, so delicately, and with such a small appetite..." Aoqian casually made a few sarcastic remarks to her.

No one really suspected anything, but the speaker meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart.

Song Xiwei panicked instantly, grabbed the steamed bun, and took a big bite.

Her cheeks puffed out, and her throat was so narrow that she almost choked to death when she swallowed the bun.

Hearing her painful cough, Aoqian quickly handed her a small wonton, saying, "Drink some soup!"

After swallowing the bun, Song Xiwei's eyes turned red, clearly from choking.

She looked at Aoqian helplessly, "Young Master, is this how you cause trouble? It would be your biggest loss to choke on such a loyal subordinate as me!"

"Who knew you'd choke like that on a steamed bun! Your mouth is about the same size as mine..." Aoqian didn't know what had gotten into him.

Seeing Song Xiwei eating in tiny bites, with her pink little tongue and light lips, chewing with very small movements, only four words came to his mind: "A feast for the eyes!"

He wasn't usually the type to have bad table manners, but somehow, he was completely aroused by Song Xiwei's delicious appearance.

So, one steamed bun after another, one flaky pastry after another…

After he realized what was happening, he made Song Xiwei eat as much as he did.

Unexpectedly, this caused her to choke.

At this point, Aoqian became somewhat emotional.

If such a top-level expert were to choke to death while eating a steamed bun, it would surely become a legend!

Song Xiwei didn't really blame Aoqian; she just felt that Aoqian today was full of humanity, and she quite liked his simple and honest nature.

"Shall we go to the morning market after we've eaten?" she suggested.

After being enlightened by Song Xiwei, Aoqian stopped trying to force things to grow too quickly.

He then comforted Song Xiwei by showing her what it was like to experience life as an ordinary person.

Of course, if Song Xiwei hadn't been with him, he would never have sat at such a simple wooden table eating food he didn't like.

But because Song Xiwei was with them, the food didn't seem so bad.

With her by my side, being a mortal doesn't seem so boring.

Seeing Song Xiwei's smiling face again, Aoqian felt that it wasn't such a bad thing to occasionally be an ordinary person.

At least Song Xiwei, who was beside him, always had a smile on her face, as if the distance between Aoqian, who was a mortal, and Song Xiwei was closer.

Aoqian was not unaware of Song Xiwei's ulterior motives.

She wanted to get used to being a mortal so that even if she returned to the demon realm, she would not easily attack mortals because she had experienced being a mortal and retained the beautiful memories of the mortal world.

It must be said that she has a long-term plan.

Aoqian didn't blame her; he just felt that Song Xiwei's compassionate heart and kind nature might one day influence him.

Because, in the next moment, he actually did something he would never have done before.

In a moment of impulsiveness, he handed the few steamed buns he had just packed to a beggar.
