Zhou Qi was speechless. Who was it that looked so defiant just now? He admired Dongfang Mian even more. In such a short time, she had turned the two siblings, who were originally arrogant and looked down on others, into someone she had raised as if they were her children.
Cheng Zhiyao could understand her brother's change of heart, after all, this sect leader was really too unexpected. As a result, the two siblings of the Cheng family were successfully captivated by Dongfang Mian's personal charm. After learning that she was a freshman in the Tianyin Academy of the Flower Goddess Academy, they were even more excited about their life in the academy.
As the sun was about to set, Dongfang Mian packed up her stall again, declining Zhou Qi's offer to watch it for her there. Dongfang Mian decided to take them somewhere to have a meal together to celebrate.
To be honest, at this level of cultivation, one has almost no need for food, but Zhou Qi's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Sect Master, I know a place where the chef makes food that I guarantee you'll never forget."
The group arrived at the place recommended by Zhou Qi. It looked like an ordinary, even somewhat dilapidated, restaurant. Before entering, the Cheng siblings looked disgusted, but as soon as they entered, they smelled a strange fragrance that went straight into their bodies, making their stomachs, which had not felt hungry for a long time, rumble.
"Boss Zhu, bring me a serving of all your signature dishes," Zhou Qi called out familiarly.
A chubby figure peeked out from the kitchen, glanced at the group, and said, "Alright, almost done."
The small restaurant was packed with customers, and Dongfang Mian and a few others sat at the only empty table in the corner.
Soon, all the dishes were served. The ordinary dishes tasted so good that they made your tongue feel like it was going to melt. Even the Cheng siblings, who hadn't eaten in who knows how long, ate so much that they were stuffed.
During a break, Cheng Zhiyao sighed, "How wonderful it would be to eat this kind of delicious food every day."
While eating, Zhou Qi said, "Don't even think about it. Countless people have invited him to be their private chef, but he's completely unmoved. Besides, he doesn't open for business every day. We just happened to be here today. He's in a good mood, so he made so many dishes for us."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Mian's heart stirred, and she silently walked into the kitchen.
After a while, Zhu Quan, the owner of the restaurant, came out from the back and said to everyone, "Eat as much as you like, all the dishes are on me today."
Wow~
"What's making you so happy, Boss Zhu?"
"Yeah, let's all have a laugh together!"
Zhu Quan smiled and said, "It's nothing, I'm just not doing this anymore. Today is my last day doing business."
After he finished speaking, the whole room fell silent. Zhu Quan was still very happy, but the diners were not happy at all. Although food is not a necessity for cultivators, in the midst of arduous cultivation, occasionally eating such delicious food is a way for many cultivators to relax, after all, it is very cheap.
Even Zhou Qi suddenly found the food tasteless and said regretfully, "Alas, I never thought I wouldn't be able to eat it anymore."
Dongfang Mian glanced at him without saying a word, but the corners of her lips unconsciously turned up, as if she was suppressing a laugh.
Soon, due to the news that the restaurant was closing down, everyone left after finishing their meal, leaving only Dongfang Mian and a few others.
Seeing that Dongfang Mian remained seated and showed no sign of leaving, Zhou Qi said, "Sect Master, we should go."
Dongfang Mian shouted towards the kitchen, "Are you done cleaning up?"
Then, the restaurant owner, Zhu Quan, came out with a smile and said, "Alright, alright, Sect Master, let's go back now."
