Just had a lot of trouble and discussed it for a long time.

After all the hassle, it's already past eight o'clock in the evening.

Wen Jiu was thinking about the problem when he suddenly heard a slight growl from his stomach.

hungry.

Since she couldn't think of an answer for the time being, she looked at the table full of food and simply picked up her chopsticks to express her opinion.

"Now that things have come to this, let's eat first. Originally, I wanted to have a big meal to celebrate, but I didn't expect something unexpected to happen. But even so, I don't want to ruin the mood. As the saying goes, there is nothing bigger than eating. Why don't we start eating first and continue thinking after we are full."

She really didn't want everyone to discuss while hungry, not to mention that what she hated the most was the feeling of being hungry.

No matter what she does, she likes to do it after she is full.

There was no way. As someone who had experienced extreme hunger, she really couldn't feel hungry at all.

Not only Wen Jiu was hungry at this moment, but everyone else was the same.

Thinking that there are not enough clues at present, continuing the discussion would be a waste of time and a waste of the delicious food on the table.

So Yu Ruman was the first to sit down again, "Okay, I'll listen to you, let's eat first."

Just at this moment, Xi Qingyu and Stephanie had also calmed down. The former was helped back to her seat by Xi Zeyu and Xi Xuehua, while the latter sat down again with the help of Fang Xinyue.

After everyone was seated, Wen Jiu reminded them, "The crispy oak bird, sour soup beef, spicy fried ox-bone meat, sand bean salad, tofu with sedge and steamed manta ray, as well as the prepared dessert danmu fruit pudding, are not allowed to be eaten by the five of us. This is because the ingredients used in these dishes are all highly concentrated in spiritual energy. One bite is equivalent to at least five glasses of mulberry wine."

Upon hearing that half the dishes on the table were inedible, Xi Qingyu let out a howl of despair.

"No! When you were cooking these dishes, I was almost going crazy with greed! If I wasn't worried that I would eat all of them if I stole a bite, I would have eaten them all in the kitchen a long time ago. I have endured all this hardship until now, but in the end I can't eat a single bite! What a miserable life this is! Damn it, I must find the person who did this and beat him up! I am so angry!!!"

Qiao Shishi also felt somewhat regretful. She had been looking forward to Wen Jiu cooking for a long time, but she never expected that such an accident would happen at the last minute.

But rather than regret, there is more doubt.

Because she remembered that the ingredients used in Wangyue Tower were either delivered regularly by the Jade Rabbit Clan or provided irregularly by Hu Xiaosi.

Therefore, these ingredients should all have a certain spiritual energy to a certain extent.

In that case, can they really eat the leftovers?
Qiao Shishi thought about it and asked.

Wen Jiu patiently gave an answer to this question.

"Of course they can be eaten, because it takes time for plants and animals to absorb spiritual energy. But the ingredients in Wangyue Tower are consumed very quickly and in large quantities. Therefore, the Jade Rabbit Clan and the Fox Xiaosi will pick or process them as soon as they reach maturity and deliver them as quickly as possible. As a result, the spiritual energy contained in the ingredients used in Wangyue Tower is very scarce."

After answering the question, Wen Jiu asked while serving himself some soup.

"And we've been eating takeout from Wangyue Tower before, and we didn't find any problems. So don't worry too much about eating your partner's food that doesn't use special ingredients. But I'm also thinking about a question. When you were eating takeout recently, did you feel anything wrong? In other words, did you feel any discomfort?"

Listening to Wen Jiu's question, Qiao Shishi thought carefully. Soon, she remembered how she felt about eating takeout in recent days.

"Well, Jiujiu, now that you ask me that, I really remembered something was wrong. The food at Wangyue Tower has always been delicious and suits my taste. Every time the food is delivered, I can eat three big bowls. But in recent days, I don't know why, the more I eat, the less delicious it tastes, and even my appetite is not as strong as before. I originally thought that this was because I ate too much and felt a little sick, but now I think there must be something wrong."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xi Qingyu beside him also spoke.

"Oh! Yes! That's right! I've seen you only eat one bowl of rice each time these past few days, and you only ate half a bowl at noon today. I thought you wanted to lose weight, and I was thinking about how to persuade you not to lose weight... Fortunately, you didn't give up."

As soon as Xi Qingyu finished speaking, except for Qiao Shishi, everyone else's eyes looked wandering and the corners of their mouths slightly raised.

Obviously, everyone has more or less sensed the subtle feelings between these two people.

But Xi Qingyu didn't want to break the window paper, and Qiao Shishi didn't notice it.

No one was a gossipy person, so naturally no one would bring it up. They just pretended not to notice. In fact, they were all patiently waiting to watch the show one day.

Especially the three family members of Xi Qingyu, they all understand that children will fall in love when they grow up, so they are naturally looking forward to it even more.

But at the moment, everyone present was still pretending not to notice. Those who were supposed to eat the vegetables were eating the vegetables, and those who were supposed to drink the soup were drinking the soup, as if they were all busy.

Qiao Shishi didn't notice anything was wrong, and glared at Xi Qingyu, "I'm not losing weight! I'm so strong! How could you think I want to lose weight? Do you think I've gained weight?"

"...It's unfair!" Xi Qingyu felt very aggrieved, but still tried to explain, "I just noticed that you have been eating less recently, and I am worried about you. You are...very beautiful and perfect now, and you don't need to lose weight. I don't think you are fat."

Hearing Xi Qingyu's sudden praise, Qiao Shishi actually felt a little embarrassed.

She didn't know why, but her mood seemed to have improved, as if she had eaten delicious food.

In fact, after Xi Qingyu finished speaking, she also felt embarrassed, so she coughed a few times to change the subject.

"Ahem! I just remembered that I also found that the takeout delivered by Wangyue Tower these days is not as delicious as before. I used to look forward to three meals a day and afternoon tea, but now I don't think about it so much. And the Longjing shrimp from Wangyue Tower, which I used to love, was delivered yesterday. I felt that it was not as fragrant and tender as before, and I even tasted a faint fishy smell for some reason."

Since Xi Qingyu wanted to change the subject, Chu Jiayan took over the topic and said that he felt something was wrong with eating takeout these days.

However, he just thought that Wangyue Tower was too busy, which led to the temporary drop in standards, and he planned to find an opportunity to mention it to Wen Jiu.

Unexpectedly, the problem was not with the takeaway from Wangyue Tower, but with him.

Then Stephanie pouted and complained.

It means the same thing. She feels that the sweet dishes at Wangyue Tower and the desserts at Taoyao are not as sweet and delicious as before.

After collecting everyone's comments, Wen Jiu's guess became more obvious.

But she would have to wait until she got back to the hotel to ask He Anna and other teachers for details. (End of this chapter)
