"Come on, try my cooking!"
On the table, Jiang Yuan wore a confident and composed smile.
"Did you make this?" Liu Zhaodi looked at Jiang Yuan with suspicion, as she remembered that he didn't have the skills to make these things.
“Teacher Liu, we saw Jiang do it with our own eyes.” Xu Xin and Xu Yi nodded quickly.
Jiang Yuan sighed softly, then said, "I suppose this is what a high-quality man is like!"
Xu Xin and Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh. This Jiang classmate was really interesting, daring to talk so confidently in front of Teacher Liu.
Liu Zhaodi was still somewhat skeptical. She picked up a piece of chicken, put it in her mouth, and after savoring it, she found that the taste was actually quite good.
"Teacher, how does it taste?" Xu Yi asked impatiently.
Liu Zhaodi nodded and said, "It's alright!"
"I'm glad you like it!" Jiang Yuan was overjoyed. He had to make a good impression on himself with this clever trick.
"Sit down and eat with us." Liu Zhaodi invited Xu Xin and Xu Yi to sit down. The two women were still a little reserved in front of her, and they were too embarrassed to sit down unless she asked them to.
"Thank you, Teacher Liu!"
The two girls sat down happily. Xu Xin was more considerate and kept a proper distance from the others, while Xu Yi sat down right next to Jiang Yuan and even moved her chair a little closer to him.
This action made Jiang Yuan's scalp tingle. The lady of the house was sitting right across from him. Just as he was about to get up and leave his seat, Liu Zhaodi's warning came first.
"Xu Yi, do you really like Jiang?" Liu Zhaodi asked casually during the meal, but she was actually warning Jiang Yuan.
"How could that be!" Xu Yi blushed and lowered her head.
"It's nothing. I just noticed you two seem quite close, so I asked. Of course, as a teacher, I'm always pleased that my students have a good relationship," Liu Zhaodi said calmly.
"Yes, how did you two meet? What kind of person is Jiang in your eyes?"
Liu Zhaodi finally revealed her purpose: she wanted to see if this guy was still the same old man.
Xu Yi's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said shyly, "We actually met during the last freshman assessment in Seoul. We were on the same team then. As for what kind of person Jiang is, I think he is very brave, very outstanding, and very unique."
"Hehe, that's really true!" Jiang Yuan chuckled dryly. You're not praising me, you're just trying to kill me.
After listening to Xu Yi's words, Liu Zhaodi forcefully pulled off the golden seaweed shrimp's claws and said, "Eat quickly, and then go back to preview tomorrow's lessons. I don't want to see any student fail my pharmacist course!"
"Yes, we will definitely work hard to become good alchemists and will not let Teacher Liu down!" The two sisters nodded together.
"Also, some men are all talk and no action, so you should avoid them!" Liu Zhaodi glanced at Jiang Yuan as she said this, wiping her hands with a tissue as she did so. "Alright, I'm full, you guys keep eating!"
After Liu Zhaodi finished speaking, she went into the room.
"But...but we haven't even started eating yet?" Xu Yi was a little puzzled. Why did Teacher Liu seem different from usual today?
"I'm full too!" Jiang Yuan had no appetite for food. After putting down his chopsticks, he said to the two girls, "But we haven't started eating these dishes yet. To avoid waste, how about I pack them up and take them to your dorm?"
"Isn't this inappropriate?" Xu Xin blushed. She was already embarrassed enough about freeloading, but now she was taking the food to go, which was going too far.
“What’s wrong with that? We’re all neighbors. I’ll come over for a meal next time I have the chance!” Jiang Yuan said. All he wanted to do now was see his two aunts off.
"Really?" Xu Yi asked, his eyes shining.
"Absolutely! You've tasted my cooking today, so next time I have to try your cooking too!" Jiang Yuan picked up two plates of food and headed towards the apartment next door.
Xu Xin and Xu Yi could only go along with the host's wishes, each carrying a plate of food to take home.
"Okay, okay, I live across the hall, no need to see me off."
Jiang Yuan felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders after leaving the two sisters' apartment; the woman's intimidating presence was no less than that of a Divine Realm opponent.
However, just as he was about to go back, the door was locked.
Jiang Yuan: "..."
It's obvious who locked it; it could only be Liu Zhaodi.
"Is the young lady pretty? Why didn't you stay overnight at her house? They're sisters!" A resentful voice came from inside the door.
"Zhao Di, stop fooling around. 'She' has been at the academy these past few days," Jiang Yuan said in a low voice.
"Don't worry, I've already seen her. The current 'she' has returned to the mortal world to cultivate again. She's currently at the ninth level of the Profound God Realm, but she hasn't reached the point of being able to control everything. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to your house to find you!" Liu Zhaodi refused to open the door.
"Please don't do this, I really have nothing to do with them, you..."
"Jiang, why are you standing at the door?"
Just as Jiang Yuan was about to explain, the door across the hallway opened again, and Xu Yi poked his head out, looking at him curiously.
"Oh, the wind was too strong, and I got caught in it when I went out," Jiang Yuan explained.
"Why don't you come to my place and rest for a bit? We can watch a movie together!" Xu Yi said, walking over to invite Jiang Yuan.
"No need, no need, I have the key, I'll open it right away!" Jiang Yuan hurriedly took out his key, but the door was locked from the inside, so it would be a miracle if he could open it with his key.
However, when he turned the key, the door clicked open, and Liu Zhaodi stood inside with a grin.
"Go inside first, or the girl next door will come knocking again!" Jiang Yuan quickly pushed Liu Zhaodi's shoulder and backed inside. He closed the door in a few quick movements before giving up Xu Yi's idea of inviting him to watch a movie in the next room.
