The girl's light purple eyes reflected the dazzling array of dish names, and her slender, childish fingers flipped through the menu.
Finally, she found what she was looking for on the second-to-last piece of silk.
"I want this, this, and this..." Although he didn't understand, it didn't stop Li Yulo from ordering all the desserts on the menu.
When the maid's notebook was almost full, she tugged at the corner of Yan Mobai's clothes and said, "Master, what do you want to eat?"
……
After the maid wrote down all the dishes, she bowed again and walked out the door with graceful steps.
The door of the private room was not closed. The two of them sitting there could hear the sound of cups being clinked in the private room opposite, as well as the conversations among several guests over tea and meals.
"...Speaking of which, Master Qian is really unlucky. He won so much money from Master Zhao last night. Just when he was about to go to the Red Mansion to have fun, he was hit by a broken tile and his blood was all over the floor. Tsk, even if he is rescued now, I'm afraid he is too weak to find a young lady."
"If he was really unlucky, how could he win so much silver? If it were me, I could win three thousand taels of silver in one night, so I would be happy to be hit a few more times."
"Haha, one hit and that's it, if you hit it twice more, do you still have the life to spend the money?"
Seeing that they were talking about the person who was hit by a tile in the morning, Yan Mobai turned his head and cast his gaze towards the private room opposite.
Through the screen, he couldn't see the faces of the guests sitting inside. He could only tell from the corners of the colorful brocade robes that fell on the ground that they should be some young men from wealthy families.
While he wasn't paying attention, the girl's hand sneakily reached out for his face, wanting to give him a taste of his own medicine, but Yan Mobai caught it easily, and placed her fingers clasped together on his leg.
"...Let's not talk about what happened this morning. Tell me, how did Mr. Qian win so much money last night?"
"What's so strange about this? When gambling luck comes, everything blooms. Everyone has their bad luck sometimes."
"Shitty luck? How much shit did Young Master Qian have to step on yesterday to win every time he bet, winning everything he bet on, from one tael of silver to three thousand taels. Young Master Zhao was so angry that he went back and smashed all his father's favorite blood corals..."
At this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted: "What do you think, Mr. Qian is cheating?"
There was silence in the guest room for a moment, and then one of them spoke in a low voice.
"I heard that the Qian family's cloth shop had some problems recently. Although it's not a big problem, Mr. Qian stopped the monthly salary of Mr. Qian in order to save money. He is short of money and can't even get the money to go to the Red Mansion to see his lover these days."
"So, in order to go to the Red Mansion to meet his lover, he cheated behind Mr. Zhao's back last night and took three thousand taels of money?"
"I didn't say that. I just mentioned it casually."
"Hiss... If you put it this way, everything makes sense. Young Master Qian cheated, and when Young Master Zhao returned, he found out that he had been tricked. In a rage, he killed Young Master Qian..."
"Hey, Master Li, you can't say that casually, can you?"
The former was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, yes! I was reckless. Come on, I will drink three cups as punishment!"
The sound of a food cart being pushed was heard in the corridor, and several rich young men from the opposite door stopped talking at the same time.
The maid in a red dress came slowly, pushing a dining cart, and entered the private room opposite.
After she came out, she closed the door.
Chapter 77: Smoothie and Sugar Water
The private rooms of the inn were well soundproofed. Once the door was closed, the sounds of clinking glasses and the chatting and laughing of a few rich young men suddenly faded away, and the only sound left in one's ears was the gentle breathing of the girl beside him.
Yan Mobai shifted his gaze back, his dark eyes staring at the rosewood table in front of him thoughtfully.
Listening to what those rich young men said, they all thought that it was Master Qian who cheated in order to have a good time at the Red Mansion, and that Master Zhao lost his money and became so angry that he hired someone to assassinate Master Qian.
However, he knew that the tiles on the eaves showed no signs of having been stepped on, nor were there any remnants of spiritual energy. It was absolutely impossible for an ordinary killer to do it so cleanly. The person who could completely eliminate both ends was definitely not someone that Young Master Zhao could afford.
If Mr. Qian really cheated as they said, it would be fine, but if he didn't cheat last night, then his luck was really good. Others would lose nine times out of ten, but he would win ten times out of ten, and he would win directly from one tael of silver to three thousand taels.
This person who was extremely lucky last night suddenly became extremely unlucky this morning and was hit by a tile and was in critical condition...
Previously it could be regarded as a coincidence, but now Yan Mobai had to be alert.
In front of him is a female cultivator from the Yaoguang Sect next door who has reached the Jindan stage, and behind him is a rich young man with strange luck. This border town close to Tianyuan seems to be hiding many hidden dangers that he is not aware of.
However...although there are hidden dangers, Yan Mobai has no plans to leave Jiuling Town and go somewhere else for the time being.
There are hidden dangers here, and there may be hidden dangers in other places. Even if you leave Jiuling Town and go to other places, you may encounter various other problems.
In the entire Yaoguang territory, except for Jiuling Town, all other towns are garrisoned by Yaoguang Sect's Yuanzhu realm cultivators all year round. They have all learned the art of sealing the heaven and earth. The power of this art does not lie in killing, but in delaying time and waiting for support. Once a dispute arises, several Yuanzhu realm cultivators can join forces to trap them.
When they broke free, they were besieged by Yaoguang monks who came from all directions.
Therefore, in terms of the threat they posed to the two of them, the difference between those Yuan-building disciples and the Yaoguang female cultivator at the Jindan stage who lived across the street was actually not much.
There is another difference between the two, that is, the Yuan-building disciples will stay in the town where they are stationed, but the Jindan female cultivator next door may not stay here for a long time. After she leaves, there will be no one in this small town who can threaten them.
Therefore, Yan Mobai would rather stay and wait and see for a while. If the hidden dangers here do not pose a threat to him, he will continue to stay. If so, he will take Li Yulo away.
He preferred the former.
What the two of them lack most at the moment is time for peaceful cultivation. With time, he can try to break through to the Yuantai realm, and Li Yulo can also try to form a pill. With her immortal body that has been reshaped by the Xuanhuang Qi, after breaking through to the Jindan realm, she may not be much inferior to when she hastily broke through to the Yuantai realm.
By then, he would have enough confidence to find out the news about the Demon Cult in Zhongzhou under the watchful eyes of both immortals and demons, and see if he could contact his disciple and ask her to provide a place for both of them to stay.
jingle……
The sound of a bell outside the door interrupted Yan Mobai's thoughts.
He saw the maid come in pushing a dining cart.
"These are the desserts you ordered." The maid said softly, placing one porcelain bowl after another on the table.
Porcelain bowls of all sizes filled half of the table. White mist rose from the ice cubes under the bowls, and for a moment the room seemed like a fairyland.
Not long after, another maid came over pushing a dining cart.
"These are the desserts you ordered." The same words as before.
Porcelain bowls of all sizes filled up the remaining half of the dining table.
"So many?" Yan Mobai glanced at the girl, and the girl turned her head away guiltily.
As the maid pushed the dining cart out, another maid came in pushing the dining cart.
Looking at the fully-stocked dining table, the maid who came later was stunned.
"These... are the sweet drinks you ordered."
She looked at the overflowing porcelain bowls on the dining car with confusion.
"I'll leave it here for you for now." The maid bowed, left the dining cart and left.
There was silence in the private room for a long time. The girl hesitated and said, "Master, can I start eating?"
"There's something I'm curious about... Your stomach is so small, how can you fit so much food in it?"
"Of course it can fit."
The girl murmured in a whisper, "Even the leader's, I can fit it..."
Faced with this shameless little girl, Yan Mobai realized that he could do nothing to her and had to let go of her little hand.
Without any restraints, Li Yulo quickly set his sights on the largest porcelain bowl.
She gently lifted the lid of the bowl, and the fresh scent of nectar immediately filled the entire private room.
The bowl also contained smoothies, but the soup base was no longer mint, but tea brewed with tea leaves, with nectar dissolved in the tea, giving it a translucent light golden color. Many tiny white flowers were sprinkled on the soup, making it look like a mountain stream with flowers floating in it, flowing around the snow-capped mountains in the middle.
"So beautiful..."
The girl murmured in praise and scooped a large spoonful of the smoothie.
She didn't rush to eat it, but dipped the spoon into the sugar water first, and waited until the smoothie was full of sweet juice before finally putting it into her mouth.
"Hmm..." The girl narrowed her eyes.
After a while, she suddenly opened her sparkling eyes and said, "Master, drink it too. It tastes delicious."
Yan Mobai was about to decline, but he found that the girl had already scooped a spoonful of smoothie towards him. She held the spoon in one hand and used the other hand to catch the dripping soup: "Come on, Master, take care of it, ah~"
"You? Wait..."
The girl's actions and words looked like feeding a child. Yan Mobai really couldn't bring himself to do this.
In terms of age, he is many times older than this little girl...
"Leader?" The girl noticed his abnormality and was a little surprised at first, then asked in a teasing tone.
"The leader is not shy, is he? The leader is really..."
Although she said this, her face turned red all the way to her neck, and her little head seemed to be smoking.
It's totally like the pot calling the kettle black...
In the end, Yan Mobai didn't insist and let the cold spoon tip go into his mouth.
The soft smoothie melted on his tongue, with a light scent of nectar, slightly sweet in the mouth, and then with a slight bitter taste of tea. The different flavors of flowers and tea leaves intertwined like threads, creating another wonderful and unique taste.
Compared to the sweetness of the sugar water, the delicate face of the girl just a few steps away is more refreshing.
After seeing him swallow the sweet water, the girl considerately wiped the nectar from the corner of his mouth with a napkin, her movements like a virtuous young wife.
After she wiped her face clean, Yan Mobai finally had time to ask, "Why are you so enthusiastic today?"
"because……"
The girl's face was so red that blood seemed to be dripping out. She clutched the napkin in her small hands and looked at him timidly with her large light purple eyes, "Because I... I am the Taoist partner of the leader..." Her voice became softer and softer, and the word 'Taoist partner' was almost inaudible, but Yan Mobai, who was practicing body cultivation and forming the elixir, could still hear it clearly.
He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood the cause of the girl's abnormal behavior not long ago.
Taoist companion...
He couldn't help but repeat the word silently in his mind.
Chapter 78: Big Belly (Please subscribe)
When they came out of the dining room, the blazing sun in the sky was already close to the center of the sky, and the clouds were as bright as fire.
The two stood in front of the door of the small building. From time to time, guests in luxurious clothes passed by them, and the wind made the corners of their robes flutter slightly.
The other guests went to the dining room for lunch, and the two had just finished their breakfast.
Yan Mobai's usually calm face now had a strange expression.
He watched with his own eyes as Li Yulo devoured most of the sweet soup on the table, and she fed the remaining half into her own mouth.
In comparison, the regular meals he ordered seemed like snacks to help him get rid of the greasiness after drinking the sugary soup.
"Wow... I'm so full..."
The girl squinted her eyes and snuggled contentedly against Yan Mobai's side, with her two small hands on her bulging belly. Her originally flat belly was now curved, making it look like she was pregnant.
The sunlight shone on the girl's long eyelashes, shining with a golden luster. After enjoying the warm breeze and the comfort of being well fed and well-drinking for a while, the girl suddenly raised her head and looked at him proudly with her light purple eyes: "How is it, I didn't lie to the leader, hehe~"
Yan Mobai knew what she was talking about and shook his head helplessly: "You... I really don't know what your belly is made of."
When a normal person eats, who can eat until their stomach is bloated?
"My belly...? The leader wants to know?"
Before he could answer, the girl grabbed his hand and stuffed it into her sleeve without saying a word, passing through the heavy, soft fabric and pressing it inside her undergarment.
A warm, soft touch came from his hand, just like the touch on her face before, but it was wider and had a slightly rounded arc. He could vaguely feel the rhythm of the pulse beneath her skin.
He subconsciously looked at the girl's face, but saw that she lowered her head, and her fair neck hidden by her black hair was flushed.
"Master... touch it and try..."
Amidst her soft requests, his hand was held by her and kept moving under the cover of the white dress.
Seeing this scene, the guests around cast envious glances, and one even left a message when passing by: "Congratulations, sir, on the birth of your baby boy!"
Yan Mobai's face froze. That wasn't the case at all, but he couldn't explain it, so he had to accept everyone's congratulatory looks.
The girl in his arms took it calmly, with a sweet and happy smile on her pretty face all the time, as if there was something else in her stomach instead of sugar water.
Yan Mobai was afraid that this guy would do something strange again, so he pulled his hand out of the girl's clothes, and pinched her face hard, taking in the girl's gentle body fragrance and the warmth of her skin.
"What are you thinking about?"
The pinch was somewhat painful, but the silly smile on the girl's face did not diminish at all.
Just now, in the eyes of the people around her, she seemed to have really become the leader's wife, and she was pregnant with a baby...
Although this wish cannot be realized in a short period of time, she is already very happy to be able to experience the feeling for a while.
I used to envy couples who could be intimate with each other when they were out and about, but now I can be intimate with the leader at any time, but I am still thinking about becoming the leader’s wife.
