Chapter 369 The protective and devoted woman VS The soft-hearted man who harbors a grudge 27
Jiang Zhiyi felt that what she said was correct; the two of them were now even.
He's looking for a fiancée, she's looking for a blind date; neither of them should criticize the other, they're both the same.
Before he could react, Jiang Zhiyi took out a small plastic mooncake pendant from her pocket.
These were small gifts she received during a Mid-Autumn Festival promotion at the supermarket when she went grocery shopping during the day. They gave one to anyone who spent over fifty yuan, and she took several.
"Here you go." She placed it in his hand and emphasized, "Don't be disgusted. Although it's not as expensive as your gift, it's still my token of affection."
Fu Chengyan held the small mooncake and examined it for a long time. "Hmm."
“What does ‘hmm’ mean? So do you like it or not?” Jiang Zhiyi pressed.
"I like it." He put the small mooncake away.
At this moment, Jiang Zhiyi took out a small pomelo pendant from her pocket. "Since you like it, I'll be generous and give you another one."
Even though it was just a simple little pendant, her sparkling eyes and the way she presented it like a treasure actually made Fu Chengyan laugh.
"How many more treasures are you hiding?" He leaned in and reached into her pockets.
Her pockets were bulging, filled with all sorts of little trinkets and lots of candy.
"Oh dear, these are for my younger siblings later. You can take a few; you're such a grown-up, why are you fighting with kids for things?"
Jiang Zhiyi quickly covered her pockets, afraid that he would take them all.
She wanted to continue criticizing him for being childish, but Fu Chengyan pressed her head down and kissed her.
Although they had only parted ways that morning, he felt as if they had been apart for a long time.
I shouldn't have come out today, but I still wanted to see her, so I drove over.
He was already downstairs when I took out my phone to call her.
He suddenly felt something was off. This situation really did resemble falling in love, but it shouldn't be like this.
In this enclosed space, ambiguous emotions seem to be amplified many times over.
The two embraced and kissed passionately.
For now, they only have each other in their eyes and hearts.
After that, she obediently leaned on his shoulder and didn't move.
Fu Chengyan knew she was being coquettish, so he reached out and gently stroked her hair.
The car became quiet.
The corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.
Even just holding him like this, without doing anything, makes me feel very content.
Not long after, Li Aijin called Jiang Zhiyi, "Where did you go? Why haven't you come back yet after taking out the trash?"
"Almost there, almost there. I've finished eating and want to take a walk outside. I'll be right back."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Zhiyi showed him her phone. "My mother called and urged me to go back. I have to go."
Fu Chengyan nodded.
But as he looked at the row of call logs on the screen, he quickly realized something was wrong.
That was clearly the time he called her.
"Who is my godfather?" he asked.

Delicate Ginseng Fruit VS Easily Fooled Cultivators
He was born into a family of cultivators with a profound family heritage, but unfortunately his talent was mediocre, making cultivation difficult.
During one of his training expeditions, he found a spirit in the deep mountains, transformed from a ginseng fruit. According to her, as long as he ate her flesh, his cultivation would surely improve greatly.
But she was injured and needs to rest for a while.
"Take good care of me. Once I've healed, I'll let you have a bite, and your cultivation will increase dramatically."
He agreed, but one bite wasn't enough; he planned to devour her as soon as she recovered.
The little ginseng fruit is exceptionally delicate. It needs to wear a different beautiful outfit every day, drink spring water from the top of the fairy mountain, eat honey made by fairy bees, and sleep while being fanned with spiritual power and told stories...
After raising her for a few days, he thought that before killing her, he had to torture her severely so that she could also taste his suffering.
After raising it for several months, he thought that since he had finally managed to raise the fruit well, he might as well spare its life and eat only half of it.
After raising him for half a year, he was even more reluctant to part with him, and he was willing to eat less himself.
And then...
Let alone eating it, he was heartbroken even when the little ginseng fruit misbehaved and accidentally damaged two of its tiny tendrils. He felt a wave of fear wash over him, and his hands trembled as he wiped away her tears.
She (cautiously): Actually, I lied to you. I'm not a ginseng fruit. I'm just an ordinary little fruit. Please don't eat me, okay?
He (feigning seriousness): How awful! How are you going to repay what you owe me? You can refuse to eat me, but you have to marry me.
