As he spoke, Duan Heng couldn't help but steal a glance at the girl walking ahead, as if afraid she might hear him.
Qingyin walked to the side, immersed in the joy of having new clothes to wear on horseback, and did not hear the man's words.
On the way, Duan Heng asked several passersby for directions and soon arrived at the largest clothing store in Xian County.
An hour later, when the two came out again, Duan Heng had changed into a moon-white brocade robe, looking more like a gentle and refined nobleman, while Qingyin had happily changed into a fitted dark blue dress that didn't make her look too dark and accentuated her waist.
After this makeover, Qingyin's body, transformed by the beauty pill, had undergone subtle changes in appearance, becoming more refined, even though her skin was still dark. After removing her patched long dress, Qingyin was undoubtedly a distinguished young lady with a slightly dark complexion. Standing next to the fair-skinned and handsome Duan Heng, she was not overshadowed at all; on the contrary, she suddenly became even more dazzling.
Qingyue twirled around in front of the man, her skirt trailing behind her.
Duan Heng stared blankly at the brand-new Qingyin for a moment.
"How is it? Isn't it beautiful!"
Duan Heng turned his head away awkwardly: "So-so."
Qingyin rolled her eyes. "You're so ignorant."
Passersby who saw the couple being quite affectionate showed a kind of teasing smile, thinking they were probably a brother and sister with a good relationship.
The older brother is steady and reliable, while the younger sister is lively and energetic.
This conjecture is mainly based on the fact that Qingyin's previous physical condition lacked too much nutrition, and the beauty pill would gradually improve her body, allowing it to open up. Now, Qingyin looks like a young girl.
In the crowd, two strikingly handsome men and beautiful women subtly became the center of attention.
Duan Heng noticed this and quickly pulled Qingyin away.
Thanks to the questions from passersby, Duan Heng quickly found the No. 1 Restaurant in Xian County.
At Qingyuelou, the waiter standing behind the counter was lazily dozing off.
Although Xianxian is not far from the capital, it is not close either. It is separated by Dongjiao County, which is closer, and Jiangle County, which is located by waterway. Xianxian, sandwiched in the middle, has barren soil and cannot grow much grain. The whole county is poor. Even big merchants passing through are too lazy to come to the poor and remote Xianxian, and naturally, no one is willing to eat at the county's No. 1 restaurant.
The business of the No. 1 restaurant in the county was terrible.
The waiter was always worried that the restaurant would go bankrupt one day and he would lose his job. Despite his fear and worry, he still had to work. As usual, the waiter stood at the counter door, dozing off.
Duan Heng held the curious girl, who was eager to run around like a wild horse, tightly with one hand, and knocked on the counter door of the restaurant with the other.
