Not only Ningguang, but Keqing and Beidou also showed a slight regret in their expressions, because Su Chen finally did not choose to accept their invitation, but chose to sit side by side with Qiqi.

Su Chen joined Qiqi in a seemingly responsible manner, as if to say, "I'll take care of everything here, just rest assured."

His eyes occasionally swept over Ganyu, the coconut sheep lady who was originally arranged by Ningguang to accompany Qiqi.

Su Chen understood that according to Ningguang's original intention, the position he was sitting in now should have been Ganyu's.

However, Qiqi unexpectedly chose him as her support, which not only exceeded Ningguang's expectations, but also unexpectedly provided Su Chen with the best solution to this embarrassing situation.

Sitting next to Qiqi not only avoids possible dissatisfaction, but also maintains harmony among the guests.

This choice was undoubtedly the most satisfactory solution at the dinner party. Su Chen therefore accepted this arrangement logically and easily survived a possible crisis.

Sitting next to Qiqi, Su Chen thought he had found a safe haven, but he didn't expect that this choice would bring new embarrassment.

He originally thought that even if Ningguang and the others felt regretful, they would not have any dissatisfaction with him. After all, no one would really be jealous of a child.

But the reality was far more complicated than he had imagined.

After sitting down, Su Chen found that he could hardly relax.

Not only did he feel uncomfortable because of the gazes from people around him, but he also felt a chill from the little ice-attributed zombie Qiqi beside him.

Every time he looked down and saw that cute zombie hat, he would feel deep regret.

Who would have thought that Qiqi pulled his hand not simply because she wanted him to sit next to her, but because she wanted to sit on his lap?

Qiqi's understanding of this special seat is obviously different from that of ordinary people, and Su Chen is now in a dilemma.

He even began to wonder if the charm potion in his body had also had an effect on the little zombie, although logically speaking, a zombie without a sense of smell should not be affected by the potion.

Every time Su Chen tried to lean forward to pick up the delicious food, he would feel more inconvenienced because of the "ice lump" in his arms.

This banquet experience, which went against his expectations, forced him to reflect on his choices.

What was supposed to be a pleasant dining experience has now turned into an embarrassing challenge.

The occasional whispers and curious looks from all around made Su Chen feel even more anxious.

Their eyes seemed to be questioning his preference, which made Su Chen feel more stressed.

In such an atmosphere, even if he tried his best to remain calm, he couldn't help feeling uneasy.

After several attempts, Su Chen finally reached the limit of his patience.

He realized that he had to find a way to resolve the current dilemma, otherwise this banquet would become an unforgettable embarrassing experience for him.

Su Chen, who was sitting next to Qiqi, felt like he was in a warm and subtle plot.

"Qiqi, won't this be too crowded?"

Su Chen asked tentatively, hoping to find a solution that would be comfortable for both parties.

"No crowding."

Qiqi answered in her calm voice, and then as if she suddenly thought of something, she started to use her chopsticks, took a piece of beef from the plate, slowly turned to Su Chen, and handed it to him.

"Brother Su Chen, this is for you."

"Thank you."

Although he was full of gratitude, Su Chen still hoped to maintain his image as an adult and did not want the scene to be reversed into Qiqi feeding him.

He couldn't help but glance at the people around him and found that several ladies who were originally dissatisfied could not help showing expressions that wanted to laugh, especially Beidou, she laughed out loud.

"Haha, this scene is so heartwarming. Su Chen, what are you waiting for? Enjoy it quickly!"

Su Chen thought, fortunately he did not accept Beidou’s invitation before, otherwise the current situation might be even more embarrassing.

With Shen He's gentle reminder, Su Chen realized that his situation was indeed somewhat inconvenient.

"Indeed, this is indeed not very convenient."

He responded to Shen He softly, grateful that she could consider the problem from a more practical perspective.

Shen He's arrival undoubtedly gave Su Chen an unexpected relief.

When everyone was looking forward to sitting with Su Chen, she seemed to have lost the right to choose because she arrived last.

But in fact, she inadvertently occupied an advantageous position that no one was competing for, making her the luckiest person at the banquet.

Su Chen had secretly observed Keqing and Beidou's reactions, half afraid that they would have new disputes because of Shen He's unexpected "good luck".

Fortunately, both ladies maintained restraint and did not let the situation escalate again.

Su Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, grateful that the banquet could continue in a harmonious atmosphere, avoiding more embarrassment that might be caused by seating issues.

"It really doesn't matter, as long as Qiqi is happy."

Su Chen responded with a slight smile, believing in his heart that since he had chosen to take on the responsibility of taking care of Qiqi, some minor inconveniences were inevitable.

In his opinion, children always have certain privileges that make them stand out in any occasion.

After all, if other adults in the party occupied such a "special seat", the atmosphere of the banquet might become awkward.

Shen He suggested softly, "If you feel it's inconvenient to pick up the food yourself, I can help you. This is better, and you don't always have to trouble a child."

"Um……"

Su Chen was a little hesitant, but soon his mood became relaxed.

This proposal actually sounds quite good - being fed by the hands of a dreamy white-haired fairy - his wife, and having a cute and adorable little Qiqi as a companion, this scene is just like the treatment of the protagonist in a novel.

No, it seems like I am the protagonist in the novel.

Guided by this idea, Su Chen began to relax and enjoy this unique experience.

He couldn't help but imagine that if this moment was frozen forever, it would undoubtedly become an unforgettable and unique memory in his life.

His inner sense of satisfaction gradually increased, as if he had really become the lucky protagonist, receiving special care from different characters.

Chapter 503: Effects of the God-Level Charm Potion

If the occasion was limited to the three of them, Su Chen might have gladly accepted Shen He's proposal, but when he noticed the other guests' reactions to Shen He's suggestion, he felt an indescribable atmosphere of "alertness."

It was like everyone's eyes were conveying the message "You are not really considering doing this?"

In order to prevent further disputes, Su Chen felt that he had to politely decline this seemingly warm suggestion.

"Thank you, Shen He, but I can still do it myself, so I don't need to bother you."

Shen He didn't seem to feel disappointed, he just nodded slightly to show his understanding.

However, just when Ningguang and the other guests relaxed their vigilance a little, Shen He made a move that no one expected.

She gently put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, and suddenly moved her head closer to Su Chen. This action was so sudden that people almost thought she was going to kiss Su Chen.

"and many more!"

Su Chen exclaimed subconsciously.

"Ms. Shen He, what do you mean?"

Ningguang asked, her brows furrowed.

"Hey, hey, hey, this is a public place, please be careful about the impact, okay?"

Beidou couldn't help but remind her, with a hint of teasing in her voice.

Although the reactions of the guests around him varied, they all expressed surprise and curiosity. However, Shen He's actions were not as bold as people thought.

She did not actually touch Su Chen, but after getting closer, she gently sniffed the scent on Su Chen's body with her nose like a small animal attracted by some fragrance.

This scene stunned everyone present. The guests, who had expected something big to happen, instead saw a scene that was both innocent and slightly cute.

Although Shen He's behavior was misunderstood at first, her innocent appearance actually added a relaxed and joyful atmosphere to the banquet.

Although Su Chen still felt a little helpless at this moment, he couldn't help but be infected by Shen He's simple action and a smile appeared on his face.

Su Chen's voice was trembling, as if it would break in the next second. He called out the name softly: "Shen He?"

The girl's behavior reminded him of Paimon. Such similar behavior made his heart rise to his throat in an instant. A trace of fear arose deep in his heart, fearing that Shen He would pounce on him like a beast in the next moment and compete with Qiqi for territory.

Although he soon realized that his worries were unnecessary, the awkward atmosphere inevitably spread.

In public, Shen He's bold and straightforward behavior really surprised Su Chen.

He thought he knew a thing or two about this action-oriented girl, but he didn't expect that she could express herself so fearlessly in front of so many people. This made Su Chen feel as uncomfortable as sitting on a needle tip. The gazes from all around seemed to be a heavy pressure, making him uneasy.

"I don't have any unpleasant sweat odor coming out of my body, do I?"

Su Chen asked tentatively, with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

Shen He smiled slightly and answered mysteriously: "Indeed not, but you have a very special fragrance that I can't identify."

Su Chen was stunned for a moment, and muttered to himself: "No way? Do I really have a smell?"

He recalled the bottle of "Lover's Seed" potion. This system potion should be colorless and odorless.

Its charm does not come from its scent, but its ability to enhance the user's charm and thus attract others, just like drug transformation, which is exactly what the inventor Freya said.

Facing Shen He, Su Chen's heart was in turmoil. He couldn't be sure whether the so-called "BUFF" was really flawless.

Although he asked himself in his heart, Ganyu, who also had extraordinary bloodline, was unaware of this, so how could Shen He discover anything?

However, all this did not seem as simple as he expected.

"What kind of fragrance do you think this is?"

Su Chen asked tentatively, with a hint of nervousness in his voice that was hard to conceal.

If the secret of his use of the potion was revealed, then tonight's banquet would undoubtedly become an unforgettable and embarrassing memory in his life.

Shen He seemed to be immersed in some thoughts. After a moment, she replied softly: "This fragrance reminds me of Qingxin flowers, and perhaps the fragrance of Liuli Bag. Although I can't be completely sure, it is indeed a pleasant fragrance."

After saying that, Shen He nodded, her tone revealing a sincere curiosity and appreciation.

Su Chen's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but wonder inwardly, is it possible that the fragrance on his body is really as fresh as medicinal herbs?

He couldn't help but think that if he had to make a comparison, the natural fragrance emanating from Shen He's body was truly as pure and sweet as the Qingxin flower, far beyond what he, a man, could compare to.

But then he realized that perhaps this was the unique feature of the "Lover's Seed" potion - to show the most attractive fragrance to different people based on their preferences.

This thought made Su Chen's face change slightly. He suddenly remembered Paimon's lingering attachment to his smell and couldn't help but smile bitterly. What kind of smell did he have to that little guy?

Could it be the mouth-watering aroma like barbecue?

Just as the atmosphere between the two became increasingly subtle, a voice broke the silence: "What are you two doing?"

Then, another voice continued with a helpless but concerned tone: "Su Chen, even if you don't consider our feelings, you should at least consider Qiqi in your arms. After all, the child is here too..."

At that tense banquet, apart from Ningguang and Ganyu who chose to remain silent, Keqing and Beidou's dissatisfaction spread quickly throughout the banquet like a storm.

Su Chen felt an unprecedented embarrassment and realized that half of the anger was directed at himself.

He felt embarrassed and a little self-blaming, and thought to himself with self-mockery that although his looks and charm were easy to attract people, how could that be his fault?

Although it is indeed a pleasure to have a beautiful woman like Shen He "appreciate" you up close, Su Chen knew that he had to bear the pain and stop this behavior in such a public place.

He whispered to Shen He, "Shen He, stop it. Let's concentrate on tasting the delicacies on the table. Believe me, every delicacy here is far more tempting than me."

After hearing this, Shen He felt a little disappointed, but she also realized that the atmosphere at the table was different.

She didn't want to be the spoiler of the party, especially when she saw Su Chen's slightly reproachful look, she had no choice but to return to her seat.

Her slightly regretful expression made Su Chen feel a little guilty.

Just as Su Chen was about to speak to comfort Shen He, Qiqi in his arms suddenly moved.

This time, Qiqi did not help to pick up the food as lively as usual. Instead, she quietly turned around and nestled her little head against Su Chen's broad chest.

This small action seemed to bring a touch of warmth and tranquility to this tense scene.

Chapter 504: Qiqi also joins the battle?

Su Chen's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He could hardly believe that Qiqi had also joined this subtle communication.

He could feel that the gazes around him suddenly became as sharp as knives, full of doubt and confusion.

Su Chen was almost on the verge of collapse. He wanted to loudly explain that he was not what they thought, but in this situation, any explanation seemed pale and powerless.
