Chapter 331 Finally Satisfied
Perhaps this is not the person behind the scenes that Xuantian Sect is looking for, or he may be the subordinate of this person behind the scenes. In short, this person should be extremely cautious in his actions.
Would a cautious person agree to meet Qi Ying so readily?
Gu Liyue had many questions in her mind. She felt that the person behind the scenes was most likely setting a trap. So who was he trying to trap?
She still sent a message to Yun Lizhi to get the information.
When Yun Lizhi arrived at the courtyard, she was carrying a food box. She said with a smile, "I know you like to eat, too. Coincidentally, I have a chef here. I asked him to make some food for you to try."
Yun Lizhi put the food box on the table and said, "You guys arrange yourselves to eat. I'll take the information to the Sect Master and let him make a decision."
Gu Liyue stopped her and said, "Lizhi, Master, what do you think of the last message?"
Yun Lizhi glanced at the food box, a meaningful expression on her charming face. She twisted a strand of hair hanging by her face with her left hand and said, "He said he would talk about it after he intercepted the next one. Look, the next one is here. I'll go see what the sect leader has arranged. I'll let you know if there's a new mission. You guys take a break first and have something to eat."
After saying that, she ran away. Gu Liyue was a little confused. What happened to her?
At this moment, Nie Hengzhou had already opened the food box and brought the dishes to the table one by one.
Stir-fried seasonal vegetables, which looked a bit like leeks, were spirit leeks. One was made from the tail of some unknown spirit beast, braised in red sauce. One soup was lamb and wolfberry soup. One was steamed oysters with garlic. One was stir-fried kidney. One was sweet yam soup. Plus a bowl of spirit rice.
The dishes all looked good. When Gu Liyue saw the second dish, she could already taste its flavor before she even started eating it.
And I also know the reason why Yun Lizhi runs so fast.
Weren't these all aphrodisiac foods in her past life? Why was the world of immortal cultivation so particular? Why was this food cultivator so talented?
Although they are all aphrodisiac foods, they are cooked perfectly, with good color, aroma and taste, making people drool at the sight of them.
But Gu Liyue was very conflicted, not knowing whether to say it or not, nor whether to eat it or not.
Nie Hengzhou looked at Gu Liyue with a strange expression and the corners of her mouth twitching. He looked at her curiously.
"What's wrong, Yue?"
Seeing that he looked completely clueless, Gu Liyue said, "The ingredients of these dishes are said to be... aphrodisiacs in folk culture."
Nie Hengzhou couldn't react to the meaning of the word "aphrodisiac" for a moment, so he repeated Gu Liyue's words: "Aphrodisiac."
Then, when he came to his senses, he felt a surge of heat rising to his head and face.
Gu Liyue saw that his ears were slightly red and found it funny. It turned out that he was shy too.
She thought it was funny and teased him deliberately, "It's okay, I have some heat-clearing pills here. These dishes look quite delicious."
As she spoke, she served Nie Hengzhou a bowl of spiritual rice and put a piece of chives into his bowl with her chopsticks. Seeing his hand pause, Gu Liyue raised the corners of her mouth slightly and picked up a piece of kidney for him.
As she watched his stiff movements while eating, she found the food particularly appetizing.
Delicious food cannot be wasted, so she put her thoughts aside and ate seriously.
After eating all the dishes, she couldn't help but sigh: "It's worthy of being cooked by a master chef. The spiritual chives are fresh and tender; the braised tail is very tasty and full of gelatin; the mutton soup is cooked to perfection..."
Every dish was satisfying.
It seemed that Nie Hengzhou hardly ate any food.
"Don't worry, these ingredients may not have that effect, and I really do have a heat-clearing pill here, really."
Nie Hengzhou was not a person with a strong appetite. When he heard her say that these dishes were "aphrodisiac", he felt a little disgusted with them. After hearing her say this again, he simply put down his bowl and stopped eating.
With a little grievance, he murmured quietly: "I don't need 'yang enhancement' either."
Gu Liyue was so focused on eating that she only knew he said something but couldn't hear clearly what he said.
"What did you say?"
Nie Hengzhou glanced at her and found that she was not joking this time, but was really asking what he said.
He said formally, "I don't need 'aphrodisiacs'."
Gu Liyue had just taken a spoonful of soup, and when she heard what he said, she spat it out with a "plop" sound, right onto the face of Nie Hengzhou who was sitting opposite her.
She immediately took out her handkerchief and wiped his face while apologizing profusely, "I'm sorry, it was my fault just now. It was also because of your outspokenness that I got startled."
Nie Hengzhou let her wipe her face. Looking at her nervous expression, an idea suddenly occurred to him. She flirted with him just now because she saw that he was shy. If he really flirted with her, she would also panic. It turned out that she was just a paper tiger.
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and asked calmly, "Why am I the one who speaks without restraint? What I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can try it."
He slowly approached her face, watching her face quickly turn red, and finally satisfied.
Gu Liyue didn't expect him to be so bold, and this sentence scared her even more.
Looking at his face slowly approaching, she waved her hands and said, "No need to try, I believe it."
Nie Hengzhou asked coldly, "Really?"
"Really." Gu Liyue said in a panic.
I always feel like I'm shooting myself in the foot. I was the one who started the conversation, but now I'm so scared that I dare not say anything back.
Nie Hengzhou added, "Are you going to eat or not? If not, I'll put the food away."
Gu Liyue glanced at the dishes on the table and felt it would be a pity not to eat them, but she felt a little embarrassed to eat more.
Seeing her eyes focused on the dishes, Nie Hengzhou said, "Eat if you want. Don't you have some heat-clearing pills?"
Gu Liyue gritted her teeth and said, "...eat."
Looking at her expression, Nie Hengzhou also found it funny.
He sat beside her and watched her eat lovingly while brewing spiritual tea.
Gu Liyue didn't care about that. With the delicious food in front of her, she started to eat slowly.
She finished half of the six dishes and a bowl of rice. Looking at the uneaten dishes in front of her, regret was obvious on her face.
Because of her habit in her previous life, she always finished her meals, but this time the portions for two people were too large, and she was almost the only one eating.
She touched her bloated stomach and couldn't eat any more.
Nie Hengzhou knew her habit. He thought it must have been a habit she developed when she was young and often didn't have enough to eat at Gu's house. Seeing her expression, he said, "If you're full, don't eat. I'll take it."
Gu Liyue didn't know what he was thinking about. Seeing the pity in his eyes, she was a little confused.
I'm so full, what else could arouse his sympathy?
"Okay, I won't eat anymore."
Nie Hengzhou handed her a cup of tea and cleaned up the leftover food.
Gu Liyue drank tea while paying attention to the situation at Spirit Beast Peak.
