The leader of Tiangong Sect immediately understood. Even though he had been imprisoned for three years, his feelings for Lu Xianyun had not faded at all!
But since I've brought him here, this kind of thing is bound to happen sooner or later. It's better to let him settle his thoughts first, so that he won't be restless for the next few days here.
"Go!"
Qiu Ji Chen felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly left the team and walked towards the restaurant.
The Tiangong Sect was not the first to arrive. Other sects had already arrived, so the business in Lu Xianyun's restaurant was quite good.
There were quite a few customers in the store at this time, but Lu Xianyun was nowhere to be seen. He must be busy cooking in the back.
But Qiu Jichen knew she would be out soon. Lu Xianyun was so perceptive about the restaurant that she would be able to spot any new guests immediately.
Sure enough, Lu Xianyun came out and casually asked, "What would you like to eat?"
But then she saw clearly who was in front of her.
For a moment, Lu Xianyun was stunned.
Qiu Ji Chen was extremely excited.
This is the person he thinks about day and night!
The person he had missed for three whole years was now right in front of him!
He wanted so badly to rush forward and hold her hand like he used to, but he knew he couldn't.
Lu Xianyun didn't expect that she would see him again.
Although Tiangongmen was invited this time, Lu Xianyun never thought that he would meet Qiu Jichen.
In her opinion, since Qiu Ji Chen already hated her, he would definitely not go with her this time.
But unexpectedly, he came. And when he came, he came to her store.
Lu Xianyun had thought she had forgotten this relationship after three years. But now, she found that after seeing him, her heart was stirred again, and she felt an emotion that she couldn't explain.
The two of them just stood there, staring at each other for a long time.
Suddenly Lu Xianyun realized that just standing there wouldn’t do, as there were so many guests here!
She suppressed her emotions and asked as she would any other guest, "What do you want to eat?"
Qiu Jichen also suppressed his surging emotions, smiled and said, "Hasn't the restaurant added a lot of dishes in recent years? I must try every one of these that I haven't tried yet."
"Okay, you sit down first."
Lu Xianyun went to the back to cook.
Dishes were served one after another.
Someone nearby shouted, "Why should he eat first? He hasn't even paid yet!"
Lu Xianyun glanced at the man and said, "Because I know he can afford it."
Qiu Jichen felt an indescribable wave of complex emotions in his heart.
This was the first time she made an exception, and it was for herself!
In fact, Qiu Jichen didn't necessarily want to break Lu Xianyun's rules, but he really didn't know how much he should pay.
He hadn't had time to look through the menu yet, so he didn't know how many dishes he hadn't tried, and how many spirit stones they would cost in the end.
Lu Xianyun didn't have time to calculate, so she just went straight to cooking. When she was done, she knew.
When all the dishes were ready, Qiu Ji Chen looked at them and sighed again.
While Lu Xianyun was cooking, Qiu Jichen had already looked through the menu and found out which dishes he had not eaten.
And the dishes that Lu Xianyun served him were just as good.
It turns out she remembers it so clearly!
She knew when she left and when she last ate her food!
The fact that she still remembered it so clearly, did it mean that she still cared about him, and did they... still have a chance?
Qiu Jichen ate his meal very slowly and continued eating until dark.
However, no one said anything about his behavior of occupying seats all the time. After all, people order more, so they pay more.
I really don't know why this person has so many spirit stones! It really makes people envious and jealous!
Lu Xianyun knew that Qiu Jichen was waiting until dark to close the shop.
But what else can they say to each other?
Finally, all the guests left and only Qiu Jichen was left.
Lu Xianyun sat down at his table.
"Waiting for me specially? I thought you had nothing more to say to me."
Lu Xianyun smiled at him and said.
It turned out that facing him was not as difficult as she had imagined. In fact, it was even easier than facing Lu Muyun after he said those words to her.
Although she was a little unsure of what to do when she first met Qiu Jichen, she felt much calmer after cooking that day's meal.
It turned out that she could really move on.
During these three years, Lu Xianyun had a new life. But Qiu Jichen was different; he was stuck in the same place, his time stuck at that moment.
Qiu Ji Chen saw that Lu Xianyun seemed somewhat relieved, but he felt as if his heart was being torn apart.
"Xianyun, I didn't mean to not go that day." Qiu Ji Chen couldn't help but say.
He had to say these words. Even though he knew that saying them now might not help, he still had to say them.
He has to explain himself!
"Xianyun, I don't know how I left you that day. But as soon as I arrived at the sect gate, I decided to return. But the sect disciples told me that the sect leader wanted to see me, so I had to go back to the sect to see the sect leader first.
“In the end, I was detained by the Sect Master and imprisoned for three years.
"During this period, I thought of many ways to contact you. But my communication symbol was taken away. I asked Lingxi to find you, but Lingxi was also detained in the sect. I..."
Even if he said these things now, Qiu Ji Chen would still fall into the same emotion as at that time.
I was so anxious and irritable but there was nothing I could do, and in the end I could only despair.
"Xianyun, I didn't look for you. It's definitely not because I care about your identity or anything like that. I just... couldn't help myself."
Only then did Lu Xianyun know what had happened that year.
So... that's how it is.
During the half month she was sad, Ji Chen must have suffered a lot too! After that, she slowly recovered, but what about him?
He was still trapped in the sect by his leader! Compared to her, who could use other things to distract her, Qiu Jichen could only stay in that day forever.
Thinking about it this way, Lu Xianyun felt that Qiu Jichen was much more miserable than himself.
Thinking back to how much pain he had felt back then, it all turned out to be a misunderstanding. Yet, it was this misunderstanding that caused them to miss out on so many years.
Why let her know this now?
Why should we break her inherent cognition?
The fixed idea in her head was shattered, and Lu Xianyun suddenly couldn't accept it. Because she knew Qiu Jichen would not tell her a lie. If he didn't accept her before, but now he was lying to her, what was the point?
