Chapter 1394: Chapter 1393: Xia Jing’s Invitation
The Qinhuai River City God Temple fair is bustling with delicious food, fun activities, and many interesting sights. Together with Liu Lingxiu, we finished wandering around and it’s almost lunch ti.
However, Liu Lingxiu is genuinely happy and very content with Ye Qiu bringing her out to enjoy the day here.
“Where are we going for lunch?”
“I’m listening to you.”
Liu Lingxiu said.
If we go back to eat, we’ll surely have to go buy groceries first.
Now, eating out ans we can stroll around after eating before going ho to prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Heading straight into a nearby high-end western restaurant with Liu Lingxiu, they’re ready to have a western-style al here.
Just as Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu entered, the waitress led them to sit at a romantic seating area. The waitress glanced curiously at Ye Qiu’s attire before handing a nu to Liu Lingxiu.
Liu Lingxiu handed it over to Ye Qiu, who ordered two steaks, well-done, along with so side dishes. They had already eaten quite a few snacks at the temple fair and couldn’t eat much else.
Besides, let’s skip the red wine.
The waitress left with the nu, and when Ye Qiu noticed so gazes directed at him, he looked over and saw it was the alluring widow Xia Jing.
Ye Qiu had initially thought she was dining with so man, but unexpectedly, she was enjoying steak with her best friend Xiaoi.
Ye Qiu found it strange. Doesn’t Xiaoi need to accompany her husband? Instead, she often accompanies Xia Jing. Or is Xiaoi not interested in n?
Xia Jing, upon seeing Ye Qiu, was preparing to greet him.
The two no longer had any disagreents, just rarely contacted each other. However, Xia Jing was aware that Ye Qiu had saved her multiple tis.
“Dr. Ye, you’re here with your girlfriend for western food?”
Xia Jing greeted.
“This is Liu Lingxiu, you should have t her.”
Ye Qiu rembered that Xia Jing had t Liu Lingxiu and Ye Xue before, so he didn’t elaborate. After all, he was acknowledging Liu Lingxiu’s status in front of others.
Once Xia Jing sat nearby, Ye Qiu asked, “Aren’t you going ho for the holiday?”
“My ho is right here in Jinling.”
Ye Qiu already knew quite a lot about Xia Jing’s situation. Her father died early, her mother remarried long ago, and she was raised by her uncles.
Yet, she had poor relations with her family and had married three husbands, all of whom passed away. To their families, it seed Xia Jing brought bad luck, ensuring there wouldn’t be any interaction.
Among her close friends now was Xiaoi, and also that female secretary.
Her usual contacts were mainly business partners.
“Haven’t found your Mr. Right yet?”
Previously, Ye Qiu ntioned there were two types she wouldn’t bring bad luck to: those who had died once and were like Ye Qiu, with souls embedded in another body, or those who found the Azure Dragon.
Currently, Xia Jing is the White Tiger, and she needs to find an Azure Dragon to avoid bringing bad luck.
However, finding that Azure Dragon isn’t easy at all.
Also, even saying it makes her feel embarrassed.
“Guess this lifeti will just be like this.”
Xia Jing helplessly said.
For her, she has fa, status, and wealth, yet all she lacks is a man who truly loves her. If she truly can’t find one, Xia Jing wouldn’t force it anymore.
When the two female waitresses brought over the steak Ye Qiu just ordered, Xia Jing didn’t disturb the two eating.
After Xia Jing left, Liu Lingxiu kept feeling Xia Jing was a bit odd; maybe it’s because her mature, beautiful, and stylish appearance seed too different.
Liu Lingxiu, being a very fresh and innocent young girl, couldn’t compare with soone like Xia Jing, who seed nearly like a leftover woman.
The two finished eating, rested for fifteen minutes, then called the waitress to pay. Liu Lingxiu took out cash to settle the bill when Ye Qiu was planning to head ho with Liu Lingxiu, while Xia Jing and Xiaoi remained waiting for Ye Qiu to finish.
“Where are you going tonight?”
Xia Jing asked, looking toward Ye Qiu.
“Well, where to? After the New Year’s Eve dinner, rest.”
Ye Qiu planned to finish the New Year’s Eve dinner, continue cultivating, and aim to break through into the Peak of the Seventh Layer in Qi Refining realm tonight.
“Why not co to my club? I’ll wait for you to have so drinks and chat.”
Xia Jing looked expectantly at Ye Qiu and said.
For now, she doesn’t trust any other n. It’s only Ye Qiu who saved her repeatedly and never asked for anything in return; initially, he even had so disdain for her.
This made Xia Jing curious about Ye Qiu. Under these circumstances, she hoped Ye Qiu could accompany her for drinks tonight.
As for Xiaoi, she definitely needed to go back and accompany her family for the New Year; Xia Jing couldn’t have her stay on New Year’s Eve.
“Let’s see when the ti cos.”
Ye Qiu wasn’t sure whether he’d continue cultivating or go out drinking.
He left with Liu Lingxiu, getting in the car. Watching Ye Qiu drive away, Xia Jing then prepared to leave with Xiaoi.
Ye Qiu drove back to the Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, parked outside the villa, and headed inside, seeing that Chen Fang and Ye Xue had returned.
“Mom, sister, you’re back so soon?”
“Of course, we’re back to prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner, and we still need to pray to the gods later,” Chen Fang said.
However, Ye Weidong probably wouldn’t have ti to return as he’d be busy at the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant, so tonight’s New Year’s Eve dinner would be missing him.
With Chen Fang and Ye Xue back, besides buying fresh at and vegetables, they also needed to kill chickens and pray to the gods. It’s tradition and unchangeable, even in big cities during the New Year.
“Lingshow, why not invite your parents over for dinner tonight? Doing it yourself is troubleso.”
“I’ll go and ask my parents first.”
Liu Lingxiu said.
After Liu Lingxiu left, when Ye Qiu asked if he could help with anything, Chen Fang and Ye Xue insisted there was nothing for him to do, telling him to wait upstairs for dinner.
With such a mother and sister, Ye Qiu naturally relaxed.
Back upstairs, he turned on the computer, logged into the “Monster Continent,” and found that Li Shen and the others were offline, likely ho with their families for New Year’s Eve dinner.
Ye Qiu played for a bit but wasn’t very interested. He browsed so news and logged off.
After finishing praying to the gods, Chen Fang started preparing dinner with Ye Xue.
By six o’clock, the New Year’s Eve dinner was ready.
Chen Fang called Ye Weidong, but Ye Weidong simply had no ti to co ho.
As for Liu Lingxiu’s side, her parents had gone back to their old house in Jiangbei to pray before returning, and instead of cooking at ho, they treated the three cashiers to dinner, including this as a New Year’s Eve dinner.
Originally, the three planned to join Ye Qiu for dinner, but having agreed to dine with the three cashiers, they ate at a nearby hotel. The al cost over a thousand, which wasn’t much for Liu Daqing and his wife now.
