Fairy, I really am a villain!

"Because I suddenly thought that this thing could be used to liven up the mood... Hee, I'm going to ask the seductresses for something better. This common stuff can't satisfy me."

As if he was just taking it out to tease him, Jiang Xingchu casually put away everything on the plate and his tone became serious.

"But," she suddenly came closer and whispered, "Although I won't eat it now, but if you want to eat it... what?"

The warm air blew on his earlobe. Fang Xiwen covered it with his hand and said expressionlessly, "Not interested."

After saying that, he glanced at Jiang Xingchu.

He made up his mind that if this guy dared to instigate him a few more times, he couldn't be blamed for breaking his promise.

~~

Perhaps she understood the hint in his eyes. For a while after getting off the boat, Jiang Xingchu became much quieter. She just quietly walked with him through the streets and alleys, and then went for a stroll.

Noodles with toppings, soft-shelled eel, bamboo shoot and fern wontons...When talking about her favorite things, the Saint's eyes would light up rarely and her attitude would seem very arrogant.

Although she was usually like this, she was obviously getting worse at this moment.

For example, a dish with a normal-sounding name turned out to be a bug when it was put in front of him. He didn’t want to eat it, but the bug was forced into his mouth after it was forced open.

Although it tasted surprisingly good, crispy and fragrant, the touch of those insect legs was... gross.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll bite you?!" Fang Xiwen didn't want to be eaten a second time, so she said viciously.

However, Jiang Xingchu was not afraid at all. He even licked his fingers and grinned at him: "If you have the guts, try it. I can always bite it back. Believe it or not?"

"Put your hand over here!"

Of course, in addition to these very distinctive local snacks, there are still normal cakes in the city, such as dragon beard cakes, osmanthus cakes, etc. However, there are some problems here.

'I heard that the taste of the food has been getting worse since the shop was passed on to his son. Now I see that it is true. The sweet and refreshing taste has become so pungent... I don't want to eat it anymore.'

Walking down the street, Jiang Xingchu was frowning as he looked at the cake he had taken a bite of, but soon his eyes turned and he smiled sweetly at the person beside him and said, "Brother Xiwen, this is delicious, but I need to save some space for something else, can you help me~"

"No, do you think I can't see your expression?" He wouldn't be fooled.

“Ah——” “Take your hands away and finish what you ordered.”

After pushing him a few times, Jiang Xingchu narrowed his eyes slightly, "...Do you dislike me?"

She is really a person who can hold a grudge.

When the two of them first met, Fang Xiwen ordered two of the same dish. She still remembers this little thing today, and has done countless outrageous things because of it.

"If I keep pushing it back, she'll probably kiss me right there and then, and then I won't be able to eat...sigh."

Under that scrutinizing gaze, Fang Xiwen didn't dare to show any resistance, so he reached out to take it and ate it openly.

Not only that, when Jiang Xingchu asked "Is it delicious?" he had to nod his head vigorously and smile... Although he was a little reluctant, if he regarded this as the other party's little willfulness, he would still be happy in his heart.

"Xiwen, do you have any wishes? I can promise you anything I can do."

Late at night, on the way back to Xinggong, Jiang Xingchu suddenly asked this question.

He wanted to respond casually, but when he saw the fixed look in his eyes, he knew it was not a joke.

For example, if he asked for a magic weapon, even if Jiang Xingchu would not take the ready-made one from the Xing Palace, he would mobilize the entire sect to make or replace one, and would use every possible means.

Does this count as making her happy?

"Anything is fine?" Fang Xiwen blinked and pretended to ponder for a while.

"Except for not being involved with other women, everything else is fine."

“Oh…” “So you’re thinking about someone else?!”

Although he was caught for a pause, he was not in a hurry and smiled: "No, I do have something I want... It's related to you."

"Hmph~ Let's hear it."

The night was quiet, the mountains were sparse, and the girl's side profile seemed to be coated with a layer of silver light.

While she was happy, Fang Xiwen told her all about his Taoism, skills, plans, etc.

Jiang Xingchu listened after a few steps. During this time, his expression kept changing from ecstasy to gloomy, and from indifference to anger. After repeating this several times, he finally gritted his teeth, reached out and pinched the soft flesh on his waist.

"You're awesome, Fang Xiwen," she sneered, "You gave me a big surprise on the first day, right? You don't deserve to be called a righteous young man, could it be that you were a furnace cauldron of the Hehuan Sect in your previous life?!"

"The reason I'm telling you this now is simply because I don't want to hide it from you. Don't be angry, don't be angry..." "I'm already angry!"

Seeing this, he walked around behind Jiang Xingchu, massaged her shoulders to help her relax, and coaxed her in a gentle voice.

After a stern face and enjoying the treatment of being Fang Xiwen's master for a while, she changed to a half-smile, took the initiative to pull him, and entangled his fingers, "Actually, if you think about it carefully, this is also a benefit for me."

"That's not what I meant... Have you come to terms with it?"

"Yes, I've let it go," Jiang Xingchu emphasized the two words, gnashing his teeth, and then his voice gradually became lower, "Then you can't blame me..."

She quickly returned to her residence, and until they parted, she didn't say anything more, but just muttered to herself, no one knew what she was thinking about.

Looking at Jiang Xingchu's departing back, he pondered for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he thought of those four words for no reason -

Stand up and kick.

Chapter 460 Burning

As one of the nine evil sects and one of the largest sects in the world, the power of Xinggong is not limited to one state, but has branches all over Dajin.

These sub-divisions exist in various forms according to different situations: those with strong control over the local area stand out in the open like the Sword Hall in Yiling;

However, if the local family is prosperous, or is under suppression by other sects, they will move into the dark and do business such as weaving and dyeing, or running musical instruments and music studios.

In addition to transferring resources to the headquarters and assembling local manpower, they also have the function of transmitting information.

Because each branch has a certain degree of independence and the situations in different places are different, the news reported to Longchuan is naturally varied, and sorting them out has become an extremely difficult task.

These were usually done by "Tianshu" among the Seven Stars, and sometimes Jiang Xingchu would take over. After finishing, he would give instructions to all parties such as resource allocation, and occasionally Palace Master Jiang Li would also take a look.

However, even though these three are all free, the task was ruthlessly thrown onto Fang Xiwen... It cannot be said that he was completely ruthless, after all, the little fairies sweetly called him Young Master many times.

Three days later, Zhu Guang Palace.

The pearwood desk used by the Saint was already filled with two thick stacks of books. At a glance, there were accounts of shops from all over the country, lists of internal and external members, notices of appointment and dismissal, and so on.

He sat on the floor behind the desk in a plain blue shirt, picking up his brush and sketching fluently.

Fang Xiwen subconsciously reached out his hand and touched nothing. He suddenly realized something and after checking thoroughly to make sure there were no omissions, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though he was always good at these things, these matters that had been piled up for a while still took him a lot of effort.

After all, time-sensitive messages have been processed early, and the remaining ones are all "not urgent, but very troublesome" tasks.

Of course, he didn't think it was a waste of time.

As a reward, he can make a list of the large amount of natural treasures he needs and distribute it to various branches for the people of Xinggong to collect, or take them directly from the local treasure house.

Although this was just a matter of saying hello to Jiang Xingchu, he was always reluctant to owe others anything, so he agreed to help.

"Dong dong dong."

As if calculating his rest time precisely, after the palace door rang three times, a slender figure slipped in and pounced directly on him.

It’s Luo Qingni.

She was seen holding Fang Xiwen's shoulders, closing her eyes, and moving her small nose forward as if she wanted to get into his clothes to smell him.

"What are you doing?" Fang Xiwen reached out and grabbed her collar, pulling it forward. "Do you suspect that I smell like another woman?"

"I didn't. Xiao Jiang specifically told me to do that... ahem."

Even though she came up empty-handed, Luo Qingni still seemed to be justified, "Anyway! You are not allowed to do bad things, do you hear me?"

"Who else can I do bad things with besides you two?"

"Good question!"

Luo Qingni was about to leave, but after hearing what he said, she immediately crossed her arms and snorted:

"Look at how those girls are fascinated by you. If I hadn't stopped you, would you still be able to do your job peacefully?"

"One moment he said he wanted to bring you some water, the next moment he said he wanted to bring you a towel because you were tired, and the next moment he said he wanted to rub your shoulders..."

As she spoke, she snapped her fingers, and at the end the silly girl raised her eyebrows: "I can't stand it any longer! If there weren't so many delicious foods in Longchuan that I haven't tried, I would have knocked you out and taken you away long ago--"

"alright."

Jiang Xingchu walked over the palace door, took her hand affectionately, and said with a smile: "With me watching, I don't think he would dare. By the way, Xiaoqing, Xiaoxuan has reserved Tianshuizhai, and is waiting for you to go over and have a banquet."

"it is good!"

If there is anything in this world that can make a silly girl calm down quickly, it is either delicious food or delicious food made by Fang Xiwen herself.

"Then I'm leaving. You have to keep an eye on Xiwen."

After they held hands and whispered for a while, Luo Qingni stuck out her tongue at him and said, "Remember to save some food for dinner. I'll bring something back for you to eat!"

After saying that, he left happily. Fang Xiwen could only hold his forehead helplessly.

What do you mean by 'stare'? Isn't she the person you should be most wary of?

"You have the heart to lie to her like this?"

"What do you mean by lying? Xiaoqing and I have a good relationship. Stop trying to sow discord between us." Jiang Xingchu blinked and took his hand with a smile. "There are still many places I want you to go with me. Let's go~"

~~

In fact, he soon realized that Luo Qingni was not that stupid, so there was another possibility -

During this period of his busy life, the two of them must have reached some "agreement" in private, or Jiang Xingchu was simply plotting some conspiracy.

"No, I just want to reward Brother Xiwen for his hard work."

Facing his doubt, the Saint Lady's eyes curved and her words sounded as if she was holding a piece of sweet honey.

As the saying goes, a short absence is better than a new marriage. Under Jiang Xingchu's sweet offensive, he gradually lost his guard and simply enjoyed the feeling of having each other by their side.

As the sun set in the west, Fang Xiwen was dragged by her to walk around the city for a few times, and finally entered a private room in the restaurant.

"I recently bought a good thing at Jubao Pavilion. Guess what it is?"

Putting an object covered with red cloth on the table, Jiang Xingchu looked at him with a smile.

"Well, it's sealed very well..." "Don't use your spiritual sense! Forget it, I won't keep you in suspense."

As he spoke, Jiang Xingchu took off the red cloth and the cover together. He first saw a porcelain plate, but before he could see what was on it, a cold air like fog spread out, causing the temperature in the private room to drop a few degrees.
