Qin Yunie finally got to eat the spiritual fruit as she wished. It was juicy and the flesh was crisp and sweet. The spiritual fruit, which contained spiritual energy, entered her body and she instantly felt the spiritual energy sweep over her whole body, making her limbs and bones feel relaxed. Her lower abdomen instantly felt warm and comfortable.
Qin Yunie's eyes lit up as she looked at the spirit fruit in her hand. It truly lived up to its name as a spirit fruit!
She didn't want the gift that the King of Hell brought back for her last time.
Now that she's determined to keep a distance from the King of Hell, she naturally can't accept what he offers her as readily as before; doing so would only make her sink deeper into trouble.
I thought I'd never get to eat it again since I missed it last time, but I did today, and it tasted so good!
From the moment she sat down, because Yama was sitting right next to her, Qin Yune could even keenly feel a faint warmth emanating from Yama, lingering around her.
She felt like it had been a long time since she last ate with the King of Hell, and she never expected to be sitting with him again today.
In order to ignore the powerful presence of the King of Hell beside her as much as possible, she tried to distract herself by eating.
Just as Qin Yunie was enjoying her meal, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind like lightning. She had vaguely felt that something was not right, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. But just now, she suddenly remembered it.
Because considering all previous interactions, whether when she was drunk or when he took her flying, it seems that the King of Hell never held her, but today...
Did the King of Hell not only hug her, but also seem to have tapped her on the head?
This has never happened before.
Yan Wenjing suddenly asked, "Don't you like it?"
Qin Yunie was taken aback upon hearing this, and slowly lowered his head, his gaze falling on the spirit fruit in his hand that emitted a faint white light and had been bitten into.
She gently shook her head and softly replied, "I like it."
Yan Wenjing's gaze fell on the fruit in her hand, which gleamed with a faint white light and had been bitten into. "Then why aren't you eating it?"
Qin Yunie subconsciously took a bite, chewed a few times, and then suddenly realized, something's not right!
How does the King of Hell know she didn't eat?
Thinking of this, she suddenly raised her head, wanting to find out the truth.
Unexpectedly, the moment she looked up, her eyes met Yan Wenjing's deep gaze.
Their eyes met, and time seemed to stand still for a moment.
Qin Yunie was completely unprepared to meet Yan Wenjing's gaze so abruptly, and was startled. Yan Wenjing was also slightly taken aback and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qin Yunie quickly shook her head, averted her gaze, and said in a low voice, "It's nothing."
But for some reason, her heart started beating much faster than usual.
That's strange, really strange.
This strange feeling made her feel uncomfortable all over, as if countless ants were crawling on her body.
Fortunately, at this moment, Meng Po, who was sitting to the side, suddenly spoke up and broke the awkward silence: "Little Yu Nie, would you like to try this fish? It tastes quite good. This kind of fish is a deep-sea fish unique to the West Sea, and it is not easy to eat it on ordinary days."
As she spoke, Meng Po used serving chopsticks to put a fish into Qin Yune's bowl.
"Okay." Qin Yunie nodded and took a bite.
When the delicious flavor of the sea fish spread on her tongue, Qin Yune's eyes lit up. The fish was extremely tender and melted in her mouth, with a delicate texture and no roughness. It also had a faint sweet aftertaste. When she cooked it, she did not use seasonings to cover up its original flavor, but chose the simplest method of steaming, which allowed the original freshness of the fish to be preserved to the greatest extent.
Seeing that Qin Yune seemed to like it quite a bit, Qi Yuan, who was sitting to the side, couldn't help but smile and said softly, "If Miss Qin likes it, I'll have someone send some more over."
However, Qin Yunie gently shook her head and politely declined, saying, "Even the most delicious food shouldn't be eaten in excess. Besides, there's still a lot of seafood left today. It will take some time just to finish it all. Seafood doesn't taste as good if it's left out for too long."
After hearing this, Qi Yuan nodded slightly to show his understanding and did not press the matter further.
During the meal, Fox Nine had almost finished eating and wanted to go find Qin Yunie, but Bai Bo hugged her, saying, "Don't go and ruin the atmosphere, or the King of Hell will hold a grudge against you."
Fox Nine blinked her fox eyes, staring longingly at Qin Yu Nie, then at Yan Wen Jing. Thinking of what Yan Wen Jing had done earlier, she deflated like a punctured balloon, slumping her head on the table and muttering, "Yan Wen Jing is so annoying. Sister Qin isn't his."
Bai Bo glanced in Yan Wenjing's direction, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
After a while, he murmured to himself, "Perhaps it will be soon."
Although the voice was soft, it was still caught by the sharp-eared Fox Nine.
Fox Nine was preoccupied with how to lure Sister Qin back to cook delicious food for him. Upon hearing this, he immediately perked up, looked up, and asked with a puzzled expression, "What's coming soon?"
Bai Bo ruffled Hu Jiu's head until his originally smooth fur was all messed up before he stopped. "It's nothing, just a kid, don't pry."
Enraged, Fox Nine turned to Bai Bo, baring her teeth and shouting indignantly, "Stop messing up my fur all the time, it's so hard to groom!"
Seeing his flustered appearance, Bai Bo couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hahaha... Okay."
Then, after stroking his fur, Fox Nine returned to his previous state, drooping his head and shoving the spirit fruit around like a ball.
After the meal, even Lin Lan, who was quite picky about food, had to admit that Qin Yune's cooking skills were indeed impressive.
No wonder Yan Wenjing made an exception for her and allowed her to sell food in the underworld.
After the meal, the other celestial officials took their leave.
Fox Nine jumped down from Bai Bo's arms and came to Qin Yune. She raised her fluffy little head, blinked her big, watery eyes that were as bright as gemstones, and looked up at Qin Yune. "Sister Qin, do you want to come back to Qingqiu with me? We have a lot of delicious spiritual fruits and peach blossom wine in Qingqiu. There are also many handsome men in Qingqiu."
As she spoke, a faint blush instantly spread across her fair and delicate face, and even her small, adorable ears drooped involuntarily, making her appear somewhat shy and bashful. "If you don't mind... you can wait until I come of age! I'll be an adult in just two years!"
Towards the end, he seemed to get a little anxious.
As soon as Fox Nine finished speaking, the scene fell into a deathly silence.
