After confessing her feelings to Hu Jiu, An Ge initially thought she would feel very uncomfortable in front of him, but when they set off the next day, Hu Jiu looked calm, which made An Ge feel much more at ease.
For some reason, she always felt that the way other people looked at her was strange.
Seeing An Ge frowning, Hu Jiu asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"
An Ge touched her face, looked up at herself, and asked, "How was my day?"
"It looks great!" Hu Jiu said decisively.
An Ge blushed slightly. Once this guy got going, he didn't hold back his words anymore. "I mean, why are they all staring at us? Is there something wrong with me?"
"Cough, no, don't worry about them, let's hurry up and get there by noon." Hu Jiu naturally knew the reason and, afraid that An Ge would be embarrassed, quickly changed the subject. Taking advantage of An Ge's inattention, he looked at the onlookers with a threatening gaze.
Several customers shrank back and hurriedly left. Watching other people's shows might cost money, but watching the manager's show could be deadly! The fight between Manager Hu and the Shadow Pavilion Master was still fresh in their minds—they couldn't afford to mess with him!
An Ge nodded, ignoring the probing looks, and took the brochure that Chef Sun had just printed, heading towards Huaixi City with Hu Jiu.
Along the way, An Ge curiously observed the changes. Unlike the desolation last time, besides Linxian Village, there were now many villages along the road leading to the outside world, and some even had stalls set up by the roadside, with business looking quite good.
"I haven't been out for that long, and the changes are too great."
"With the example of Linxian Village, many people also want to make a living by relying on inns. Feng Jinghan has the idea of developing the economy through inns, and has given Yangxian and other counties adjacent to Cangshan many preferential policies in terms of land and commerce, which has accelerated their pace of settling down." After confirming An Ge's intentions, Hu Jiu did not mind saying a few good words to Feng Jinghan.
An Ge suddenly felt some pressure. "Then we need to develop the inn even better. We can't let these people down."
“Since the inn opened, the lives of the people in Huaixi City have improved significantly compared to before. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. I’ll take care of everything at the inn,” Hu Jiu reassured him.
In fact, people are now extremely grateful to the inn, and more and more people are erecting longevity plaques. Of course, Hu Jiu wouldn't tell An Ge any of this to avoid embarrassing her.
The road out of the mountain was smooth, and the two quickly reached the foot of the mountain.
As they reached the foot of the mountain, the number of pedestrians increased significantly. An Ge remembered that there used to be only one teahouse, but now the area was showing signs of becoming a market town. Seeing that An Ge had no intention of getting out of the car to explore, Hu Jiu sped up.
As noon approached, the two finally arrived at Huaixi City. Looking at the marks on the tall city wall, An Ge could almost see the fierce battle between the two armies.
Upon entering Huaixi City, An Ge was immediately drawn to the bustling scene.
The streets were bustling with people, and the cries of vendors filled the air. Although the ordinary people weren't dressed extravagantly, it was clear they were well-off. Seeing An Ge's high spirits, Hu Jiu also smiled.
When they arrived at the inn, An Ge felt a vague sense of familiarity.
Seeing that An Ge and Hu Jiu had extraordinary looks and demeanor, the waiter hurriedly went up to them and greeted them warmly: "Esteemed guests, are you here for a meal or to stay the night? This is the best inn in Huaixi City, it was even guided by immortals. You two know about Xianyuan Inn, right? Our owner went there to learn about it. You two can experience the charm of an immortal inn in advance at our inn."
Hu Jiu smiled at An Ge's embarrassed look and said, "Arrange two superior rooms for us."
"Alright, two deluxe private rooms. Would you two like to order something? Our shop offers celestial delicacies such as instant noodles, sausages, and various hot and sour noodles. In addition, our signature dishes were also instructed by immortals. However, if you would like to try them, you will need to make a reservation in advance."
An Ge found it somewhat amusing; she hadn't expected her inn to become a living advertisement, with the waiter constantly mentioning the Immortal Fate Inn.
"Then let's reserve a few signature dishes first. I haven't tried the delicacies of the immortals yet."
Seeing that An Ge was in a playful mood, Hu Jiu also chimed in, "We're from out of town, and the inns in Huai Xi City are indeed different."
The waiter said proudly, "Of course, our Huaixi City is a place blessed by immortals. No other place can compare to us."
Upon hearing that they were from out of town, the waiter's pride as a native of Huaixi City immediately flared up. He launched into a long, enthusiastic tale of the Immortal Inn and the fairy, saying, "In our Huaixi City, you can find celestial objects everywhere. There are many things that don't even exist in the capital, but only in our Huaixi City."
Even though An Ge is thick-skinned, she couldn't stand being praised to her face and urged Hu Jiu to check in quickly.
Hu Jiu listened with great interest, and felt extremely proud to hear others praising An Ge.
After checking in, the two ordered a few simple dishes. An Ge took a bite and found that although the taste wasn't as good as at Xianyuan Inn, it was much better than last time, probably because they had added a lot of new seasonings. Plus, they were quite hungry after traveling, so they quickly finished the food.
After getting ready, the two went for a stroll in the street.
"Fresh radishes! Come and see! Even the immortals have praised them. I'm not exaggerating. You know Doujiazhuang, right? That's a place that supplies food to the immortals. Doujiazhuang has bought our radishes before. Don't you think they praised them?"
"Would you like some tea, sir? This year's new tea has received rave reviews from the tea connoisseurs."
"Delicious candied hawthorns, even immortals have bought them! Limited quantity available, come and take a look!"
"Would you like to take a look at our ready-made clothes, sir? Even the immortals have worn clothes from our shop."
...
An Ge felt as if she were in a large-scale brainwashing group, where everyone doing business had to mention some kind of immortal name. She pointed to herself suspiciously, "Don't I look like a living advertisement? This is my first time in Huaixi City, how could I have been to so many shops?"
