Chapter 164 The Eighth World 1 (Loyal Imperial Guard X Charming Young Widow)



As noon approached, the tightly closed door was finally opened.

The people in the nearby shops were overjoyed to see the door finally open.

But it's really not easy. They're just afraid that the store won't open at noon today, which would prevent them from having a good drink.

As Qifei walked out, she saw everyone staring at her expectantly. She couldn't help but pause for a moment, thinking that they didn't need to be so hostile.

"Shopkeeper, will we be able to have a hot meal for lunch today?"

"Yeah, it was closed yesterday, so we're going to have a good meal today."

Qi Fei couldn't help but smile, her smile as bright and beautiful as a blooming peony. "Of course, now that I've opened the door, you can come for lunch."

She has been in this world for some time now.

Her current identity is that of a widow who died shortly after marrying her husband.

She originally went there to bring good luck, but her cheap husband was unlucky; he died before she even reached the door.

Her in-laws naturally disapproved of her.

However, Qifei wasn't afraid. The man died before she even entered the door, so how could she be blamed?

It's obvious that the man was just unlucky; he couldn't handle her arrival at all.

Qi Fei naturally found an opportunity to move out. Anyway, the man was already dead, so why should she be expected to remain a widow for him?

Are you dreaming?

Qifei naturally wouldn't tolerate that family, so she decisively ended things and opened the shop under the widow's name.

The restaurant serves "antique soup," which is what modern people call hot pot.

She is skilled at cooking and loves hot pot. In the past, Shura even had someone develop a special broth for it, and she now uses that broth to make hot pot.

Qifei, resting her chin on her hand, lazily asked the system, "I've been here for so many days and I still haven't seen Shura. Has he been thrown into this small world?"

[Don't worry, host, the Supreme God is definitely in this small world. However, as you know, this is a relatively underdeveloped world, so finding him will be a bit difficult.]

The system sounded a bit guilty. There was no way around it; if there were internet access, it could easily find out where the main god was by following the network cable.

The key issue is that this was a backward era, and ancient technology was inadequate, leaving them helpless.

"Forget it, whether we're meant to be or not depends on whether fate will grant us that chance." Qi Fei shrugged indifferently.

Knowing that Shura was in this small world put her at ease.

It's just a matter of whether she encounters it sooner or later. I wonder how he will react if he finds out she'll be a widow for the rest of her life.

Qifei had a strangely mischievous little expectation.

When it was time to eat, the small restaurant called "One Pot" was already packed with people.

The aroma that filled the room wafted outwards, making passersby drool.

What's that amazing smell? It smells so good!

Many people were drawn to the shop by the aroma.

Unlike other restaurants, the restaurant had benches placed at the entrance, and a table next to them had some snacks, such as peanuts and melon seeds.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Is this free?"

"Of course, as long as you want to come to our store to eat, you can eat for free even if you have to wait in line."

There are also some storybooks here; if you find the wait a bit boring, you can read them to pass the time.

Upon hearing about this treatment, some people immediately wanted to sit down and queue up.

The main reason was that the aroma in the store was too strong; it made him so tempted that he wanted to scratch it.

The waiter handed me a wooden tag, saying, "We'll call your number when it's your turn, and we'll let you know."

Those who brought attendants were also given small stools by the waiter.

"Master Xiu, that shop over there just opened recently. My brothers and I ate there before, and the taste was absolutely amazing."

"I must ask Lord Xiu to grace us with his presence today. The wine there is absolutely superb; you can't find anything like it anywhere else."

A man dressed in brocade guard uniform introduced "One Pot" to Shura.

"Don't let the strange name fool you, sir, business is booming. Many people come here just to drink, but of course, food is even better." The man chuckled and led Shura over.

Shura hummed softly, then paused at the door. This smell... it was so familiar.

A waiter approached, looking troubled. "Sirs, there are no seats inside at the moment. Please wait at the door."

Actually, quite a few officials come to the small restaurant to eat, but most of them have changed their clothes before coming.

There are very few people like Shura who come dressed in the uniforms of the Imperial Guard.

They can pretend not to know who someone is just by looking at them and they've changed their clothes.

The man who had come earlier was a little embarrassed. "This is our Master Xiu. Please have your boss come out and make room for you."

He went to great lengths to bring the adults here; should he really leave them waiting outside?

The waiter looked troubled. He was afraid of the name of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. He wanted to make room for them, but there were too many people inside. Who should come out?

"What's wrong?" Qifei asked, hearing the commotion at the door.

Upon hearing this voice, Shura's pupils constricted sharply, and he quickly took a few steps into the shop.

"Sir, sir..." The waiter hurriedly tried to stop him, but was stopped by the man with a forced smile. "You want to block the way for the sir's repair? Are you out of your mind?"

The waiter shuddered, his face turning deathly pale. "No, that's not what I meant."

【Oh my, it's the Supreme God!】The system shouted in Qifei's mind.

Qi Fei was also a little stunned. She didn't expect that she would meet Shura directly at noon after just talking to the system about Shura today.

"Shopkeeper, are there any seats left?" Shura didn't dare to make a hasty acknowledgment, as he wasn't sure if Qi Fei still had no memory, so he chose to remain still.

The waiter was dragged in by another Imperial Guard. Qi Fei glanced over and saw that the waiter's face was full of panic.

"Luo Wu, let go." Shura noticed this and said in a low voice.

Luo Wu chuckled and let go of his hand. "Yes, sir, I was just joking with him."

"Please come with me, gentlemen. If you don't mind, there's a private room inside, but it's not usually open to the public." Qi Fei stood up, nodded to the two of them, and led them to a private room she had deliberately reserved.

This shop serves a down-to-earth, local business, and the private rooms are just in case.

I never expected it would actually come in handy today.

"What would you two like to eat? What do you think of the restaurant's specialties?" Qi Fei looked at Xiu Luo and his companion with a smile, enthusiastically promoting the restaurant as if she were any other customer.

"Shopkeeper, just put up your shop's signboard and get us some more wine."

"I came here today because I've been really craving the wines from your shop." Luo Wu said to Qi Fei with a smile.

"Okay, then you guys wait a bit." Qi Fei wrote down the order, turned around and left the private room.

The private room wasn't large, but it was decorated very elegantly, unlike a place for eating antique soup.
