"Little Qiang, is this the armor you recaptured?"
Yans Ruyu's beautiful eyes swept ceaselessly over the armor Wang Xiaoqiang wore, feeling that he looked exceptionally handso and imposing in it.
Yet, she was too embarrassed to express her thoughts.
"Haha, Little Qiang, you really do look too cool in that armor!"
True Person of Taiyi praised directly.
"Hehe, cool, right!" Wang Xiaoqiang, seeing that both Yans Ruyu and True Person of Taiyi were staring at him endearingly, and noticing Yans Ruxue's apparent indifference, turned to see her face blushing and her head lowered, asked with so surprise, "Ruxue, what's wrong? Aren't you happy to see back? I even brought back the Spirit Marrow..."
Yans Ruxue's heart brightened up at the ntion of Spirit Marrow, but for so reason, she felt too shy to face Wang Xiaoqiang. Talking to him used to be carefree, but now it always felt a little embarrassing.
Yet, she had so much to tell Wang Xiaoqiang – what strange feeling was this?
"Little Qiang, you're really wronging my sister here; she's been constantly thinking about you," said Yans Ruyu, "Just now she was saying if only you could co back today, and right after she finished speaking, here you are..."
"Er, to have Miss Ruxue worry so much, I truly feel apologetic," Wang Xiaoqiang, gazing at Yans Ruxue's shyly blushing face, said, "I have sothing nice to give you."
As he spoke, Wang Xiaoqiang willed the Suru Ring open and took out a sandalwood box. He opened it and stretched it forth in front of Yans Ruxue, saying, "Take a look, what's this?"
All three of them couldn't help but focus on the sandalwood box, where five transparent objects the size of eggs lay.
"Little Qiang, this can't be Spirit Marrow, can it?" Yans Ruyu leaned in closer, peering at the Spirit Marrow with wide, curious eyes.
"Exactly, this is the reward I got for winning the armor, the Spirit Marrow," replied Wang Xiaoqiang, "and now I want to give Ruxue one first."
As he said this, Wang Xiaoqiang took out a piece of Spirit Marrow and handed it to Yans Ruxue.
Yans Ruxue beca bashful and waved her hands, "Little Qiang, that's sothing you fought hard for; I dare not accept it."
"Sister, if you don't accept it, wouldn't that be letting down Little Qiang's kindness? Besides, haven't you been longing for him these past days? If you refuse now, all your thoughts would have been in vain."
Yans Ruyu teased her sister with a suggestive wink.
"You little brat, what nonsense are you talking about? What am I longing for? I'm not missing anyone," Yans Ruxue's face grew even redder, and she lifted her hand in an embarrassed threat to hit Yans Ruyu.
Yans Ruyu ran off with a giggle.
True Person of Taiyi gave Wang Xiaoqiang a knowing look, then walked away as well.
Only the two of them were left in the pavilion.
The atmosphere was awkward yet charged.
Wang Xiaoqiang walked over to Yans Ruxue, sat down beside her, drew her chiseled shoulders toward him, and said, "Ruxue, thank you!"
Yans Ruxue, who had never been touched by a man until this point, let alone embraced, trembled slightly. Although she had no aversion to Wang Xiaoqiang and indeed harbored a thought to lean into him, her modesty at that mont ant that she neither leaned in nor pushed him away, tacitly accepting his embrace. Her voice trembled as she asked, "Thank you, thank for what?"
Inhaling the faint fragrance coming from Yans Ruxue's body, Wang Xiaoqiang said earnestly, "Thank you for thinking of . In the Immortal Realm, I only had True Person of Taiyi as a fellow villager. I thought when I was hovering at the brink of life and death, he was the only one who worried about . I never expected to have such a confidante in you, in the Immortal Realm..."
"Ptui! Who is your confidante?" Yans Ruxue pushed Wang Xiaoqiang away, her face growing even more flushed.
Wang Xiaoqiang, understanding that it was just a woman's modesty, embraced Yans Ruxue's slender waist again, feeling the firm yet elastic body in his grip. He laughed and said, "Ruxue, actually, when I first saw you on Earth, I fell for you right away..."
Yans Ruxue's delicate body shivered again and she spat out, "Pah, who are you trying to deceive!?"
"Really, I fell for you at first sight!" Wang Xiaoqiang said, pulling Yans Ruxue directly into his arms.
Yans Ruxue didn't resist, but it was the first ti she leaned against a man's chest. The scent of the man enveloped her, making her feel bewildered and enchanted.
Suddenly, Yans Ruxue, who had rather traditional thoughts, abruptly rembered that they were in a public place, where people could see them. Just like touching an electric shock, she sprang out of Wang Xiaoqiang's arms and stood up, then frantically looked around. Seeing that there was no one nearby, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Xiaoqiang also stood up and said, "Ruxue, I haven't had a proper al in two days, aren't you going to treat to a al?"
"Alright, but, how about inviting Ruyu and Taiyi as well?" Yans Ruxue said reservedly.
"No need for that, who knows where they've run off to. If we wait for them, I might starve to death!" Wang Xiaoqiang said, pretending to rub his stomach.
"Stop talking nonsense, from now on, you're not allowed to talk of death. It's inauspicious," Yans Ruxue retorted with a pout.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, let's go, it's ti to eat, I need a good al," Wang Xiaoqiang said, taking Yans Ruxue's hand.
Yans Ruxue didn't refuse, but when they went outside, she still felt her face burn and heart race, especially since Wang Xiaoqiang's armor was so dazzling. It revealed that he was the winner of the first competition, attracting admiration and envy,
As if that weren't enough, he was also holding the hand of a dignified and beautiful woman, which was bound to draw attention. At that mont, all eyes on the street turned toward them.
Fearing the crowd's gaze, Yans Ruxue casually picked a restaurant, hurried Wang Xiaoqiang inside, called for a private room, and then ordered a large table of dishes, requesting so good wine as well.
Soon, the food and wine were served. Wang Xiaoqiang started eating heartily; having managed on dry rations for the past two days, he really hadn't eaten properly and now that he saw the rich dishes, he couldn't help indulging himself.
"Slow down, don't choke,"
Yans Ruxue, like a virtuous wife, served Wang Xiaoqiang food while gently admonishing him, her eyes filled with tenderness and her voice soft.
Seeing Yans Ruxue's beautiful face, Wang Xiaoqiang felt his appetite increase even more, and the more his appetite grew, the more voraciously he devoured the food.
Feast for the eyes, indeed, is no idle saying!
Having a beauty beside one can increase one's food intake. This is a great truth! This is an aphorism!
"You really shouldn't binge eat like this!" Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang devour the food on the table like a storm, Yans Ruxue glared at him severely.
After swallowing a piece of chicken tail, Wang Xiaoqiang said with greasy lips, "You're right, but Ruxue, I can't control my own hands. How about, you feed ? If you feed fast, I'll eat fast; if you feed slowly, I'll eat slowly... I'll listen to you."
"Go away, I'm not feeding you! Do you really think you're a king or sothing!?" Yans Ruxue scolded.
"If you won't feed and won't let eat quickly, then I, I just won't eat!" Wang Xiaoqiang actually put down his chopsticks.
"What are you doing?" Yans Ruxue was taken aback by Wang Xiaoqiang's earnestness. "You're really not going to eat?"
"I'm really not eating. I'd rather starve than worry you!" Wang Xiaoqiang shook his head, looking serious.
Her own words had prompted him to stop eating, and Yans Ruxue felt sowhat ashad. Looking around and seeing that there was no third person in the private room, she compromised. With a helpless sigh, she picked up the chopsticks and began to serve him, saying, "Fine, I'll feed you!"
Wang Xiaoqiang was only testing her and was a little flustered when he saw Yans Ruxue actually was going to feed him. He quickly opened his mouth wide and stretched out his head.
As Yans Ruxue brought the food to his mouth, a blush crept onto her snow-white cheeks, and she chided him with a glance, "Why does it feel like you're just a baby in swaddling clothes?!"
"Ruxue, you're actually spot on. I do like to be babied!" Wang Xiaoqiang said, his gaze involuntarily resting on Yans Ruxue's body. (To be continued.
