Chapter 447 The Precious Ginseng Fruit VS. The Easily Deceived Cultivator (50 chapters)
Meng Qizhou's breathing became lighter, and he dared not make a sound.
He had initially hoped to leave a good impression, but after all this turmoil, Jiang Taining and Su Fangyun probably already have quite a few complaints about him.
He didn't say a word, for saying more would only lead to more mistakes, and besides, he didn't know what to say at that moment.
well……
Meng Qizhou was very worried.
Jiang Zhiyi was focused on eating and unaware of anything else.
She picked up another steamed bun and took a bite.
This time, we had vegetarian filling.
She chewed a few bites with some disgust, barely managing to swallow them, but she had absolutely no desire to eat any more.
She moved quickly, shoving the bun into Meng Qizhou's hand, saying, "It's not tasty."
Give him whatever he doesn't like to eat.
It was the same way when I was in the sect, and now that I'm home, I can't break the habit.
Meng Qizhou glanced at it and, seeing the green filling inside, understood. He then got her another fragrant meat bun.
Ginseng fruit is very picky; it loves to eat meat and also loves sweets.
Afterwards, he naturally ate the remaining vegetarian bun she had made.
Jiang Taining and Su Fangyun exchanged a glance, and they understood quite a bit.
Just moments ago, they were worried that their precious daughter might be bullied or deceived, but now the situation has completely reversed.
Someone else was being bullied.
Jiang Taining's expression turned serious. He said, "You should be more obedient. How can you give away your leftovers to others? That's very rude."
He then said to Meng Qizhou, "She is spoiled and immature. We have spoiled her. You don't need to indulge her."
Meng Qizhou shook his head. "It's alright."
I've gotten used to it by now, so I don't feel offended at all. On the contrary, I'm delighted by her natural closeness.
Jiang Zhiyi didn't expect to be lectured. She pouted and immediately retorted, "He did it voluntarily. It would be a waste if he didn't eat it. It's not like he can't eat it. Besides, Father, don't you often eat Mother's leftovers?"
"Oh, you child..." Su Fangyun quickly stuffed a steamed bun into her mouth, "Alright, alright, I won't say anymore, hurry up and eat."
Jiang Zhiyi hummed a few times and continued to eat her steamed bun.
...
Noon.
Jiang Taining and Su Fangyun went back to their room for an afternoon nap, a habit they always had.
Jiang Zhiyi took Meng Qizhou for a stroll nearby.
“This is the swing my father made for me!” Jiang Zhiyi pointed to the swing in the courtyard.
Vibrant flowers climb up the swing set, their petals layered upon each other, and the ground around them is also covered with flowers, filling the air with fragrance—it's a beautiful sight.
Judging from the way these flowers are in full bloom, they must have been maintained with spiritual energy, which shows how much care was put into them.
"And those..." Jiang Zhiyi showed Meng Qizhou many things with a hint of showing off.
Meng Qizhou listened attentively, occasionally asking questions and silently making notes.
These things aren't difficult. As long as he's willing to put in the effort, he can make her an exact replica at Lingyun Sect, or even better. However, he'll need to carefully remember her preferences to avoid making mistakes.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Zhiyi assumed he was very envious, so she became even more enthusiastic in her introduction, her mouth never stopping, chattering away.
"Don't be envious. As long as you listen to me, I'm willing to share with you."
Jiang Zhiyi acted very generously, and then, mimicking his usual refrain, she tried to get him to listen to her.
Meng Qizhou leaned closer and tapped her head, "Who's the most disobedient? You're trying to tell me what to do now? I'm much more obedient than you."
Jiang Zhiyi touched her forehead, too lazy to pay attention to him, and picked a few small flowers.
She pinned a flower in her hair and then took another one, intending to place it on Meng Qizhou's head.
Meng Qizhou reached out to grab it, saying, "You can wear it."
He smiled and placed the flower behind her ear, then gently tidied her wind-blown hair.
His Adam's apple bobbed a few times.
He leaned down and kissed her on the cheek.
Jiang Zhiyi's eyes widened slightly, then she frowned and looked at him, her tone haughty: "You're not allowed to kiss me!"
Meng Qizhou raised an eyebrow. "Didn't you always kiss me before?"
He seemed to recall something amusing, "You were often in such a hurry, still eating, your mouth still greasy, and you'd suddenly try to kiss me... I never complained then. Think about it, did I ever say that to you?"
Jiang Zhiyi frowned.
She wasn't in a hurry to kiss him; she was just deliberately trying to get close to him.
Seeing that she seemed unhappy, Meng Qizhou added, "Of course, if you really can't wait, just kiss her. It's okay if there's oil in the kiss."
He looked down and noticed, "It looks like my mouth isn't clean."
Jiang Zhiyi subconsciously reached out to touch it.
Taking advantage of her momentary lapse in attention, Meng Qizhou kissed her on the other cheek.
"Don't kiss me!" She reached out to hit him.
Meng Qizhou stood still without flinching, his smile widening.
Jiang Zhiyi covered her face with her hands, hiding it completely.
She looked like she wouldn't let him kiss her anywhere.
Meng Qizhou looked left and right, then asked with feigned distress, "What should I do? I really can't kiss you now."
Jiang Zhiyi smiled and couldn't help but laugh.
Meng Qizhou also laughed out loud, looking at her with eyes full of tenderness.
He slowly raised his hand, his fingertips touching the skin on her face that wasn't covered, bringing a tingling sensation.
"You can't do that!"
Jiang Zhiyi shook her head, dodging his hand.
Then, Meng Qizhou lowered his head slightly and gently kissed her lips through her fingers.
The movements were as gentle as a spring breeze.
"We still managed to kiss," he said.
Jiang Zhiyi moved her hand away and angrily accused him, "You're being unreasonable, that doesn't count!"
Even if...
"Hmph—" Jiang Zhiyi simply ignored him and ran away.
Meng Qizhou hurriedly chased after him again.
"Okay, okay, whatever you say goes... I'll do whatever you say, alright?"
"No, it's too late!"
She's angry now.
Not far behind them, Jiang Taining and Su Fangyun, who had just woken up, could see the two's movements clearly through the window.
"These two children..."
Su Fangyun wanted to say something, but then stopped herself.
Jiang Taining asked her, "What's wrong? What do you want to say? I think this young man is quite good. He's good in appearance, family background, personality, and cultivation. Our daughter likes him too."
Su Fangyun: "The divination we performed for her before should have predicted a hundred-year-old demon. But who would have thought that she would bring back a cultivator from the Lingyun Sect, and the future sect leader at that..."
Jiang Taining reassured her, "Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed, and there are many things that cannot be predicted accurately. If everything could really come true, I would actually feel uneasy. In the end, it's up to her to be happy."
