Zheng Dandan ignored her and continued to talk to Lu Sheng. âI just ⊠Oh no, I heard that these dishes are quite good. Do you want to try?â
Beside them, the little girl looked at Lu Shengâs table and raised her head to the middle-aged couple. âDad, can I go find big brother to eat with me?â
âIsnât it the same if Nannan eats here?â The beautiful woman patted the little girlâs head and gently said.
The little girl confidently said, âNannan thinks that eating next to big brother will be more delicious.â
The beautiful woman looked at her husband beside her.
The elegant man smiled. âLet her be. She wonât leave our sight. Whatâs there to worry about?â
Seeing that her husband agreed, the beautiful woman couldnât say anything else. She could only say, âNannan, be good when you go over. Donât disturb big brother and big sister eating.â
âNannan understands.â The little girl picked up the plate and quickly ran over to Lu Shengâs table.
Seeing that the little girl had successfully joined the table, the beautiful womanâs eyes relaxed a little. She turned her head and complained to the elegant man. âWhy did you let her go to a strangerâs table for no reason?â
The elegant man smiled. âYou said I was too cautious. I think youâre the one whoâs too cautious. If Nannan wants to eat with that young man, then let her be. That young manâs character is not bad. His eyes are very pure. He canât be a bad person. And heâs just a high school student. Even if heâs practised martial arts for a few years, he canât be that strong. As long as heâs within my sight, I can kill him with just a thought âŠâ
The elegant manâs expression was calm. His words revealed his strong confidence.
The beautiful woman believed him. She knew that her husband was a powerful Level 2 Spiritual Master. Even though they were currently on the run, he was still not someone an ordinary martial artist could provoke.
âBut the other two âŠâ
The elegant manâs gaze gently fell on Lin Zishan. He said with interest, âThe one with long hair seems to have noticed that Iâm not ordinary. But sheâs very smart and pretends not to know. The other one is the âbig-breasted but brainlessâ type. Her strength is average, sheâs only a Level 1 Martial Artist.
âAnyway, theyâre just ordinary people who can be easily dealt with. Iâll look after Nannan, so you donât have to worry too much.â
The beautiful woman nodded, completely relieved.
âAlright.â
The elegant man patted the beautiful womanâs hand and said softly, âNow think about what gifts to buy for your father when we see him tomorrow.â
The beautiful woman glared at him. âNow youâre thinking about buying a gift for my father? Weâre already in the mountains. What do you want to buy for him? Mountain goods? The village is in the mountains âŠâ
The elegant man was stunned. Immediately, an awkward smile appeared on his face.
âRight, look at my brain ⊠I forgot! I forgot! Hehe âŠâ
âŠ
âLittle brother, youâre eating so much?â Zheng Dandan stared with wide eyes at the table full of food Lu Sheng ordered. Her expression was a little surprised.
Lu Sheng casually responded. Then, he gently said to Nannan who was sitting beside him, âLetâs see who can finish eating first, shall we?â
âOkay!â
Nannan responded in a childish voice. She began to shovel food into her mouth âŠ
Lu Sheng also began to eat quickly.
Lin Zishan glanced at the table full of food. She couldnât help but look at Lu Sheng with a lighter gaze.
Only people with average family conditions who havenât become official martial artists would eat so much in one meal.
Generally, after a martial artist enters the ranks, they rely on supplements to replenish the energy they need for their daily cultivation.
If they donât have the means, theyâll choose higher quality ingredients instead. For example, she and Zheng Dandan carried synthetic compressed meat jerky with them.
A Level 1 Martial Artist would be full after eating a few at a time. Otherwise, eating so much food every meal would take half a day to poop.
But thinking that this little boy called Lu Sheng in front of her was still very young, Lin Zishan was relieved.
Zheng Dandan didnât mind Lu Sheng eating too much. She kept her word and ate with Lu Sheng.
Looking at the three of them wolfing down the food in front of her, Lin Zishan felt a little hungry. She wanted to eat more, but considering her ladylike image, she gave up.
Staring at the three of them eating for a while, Lin Zishan couldnât help but sigh in her heart.
To be honest, this boy called Lu Shengâs appearance was really impeccable. He could be said to be one in a million. His appearance, figure, and temperament were all outstanding. Even if it was just a meal, eating so much and eating so quickly was still pleasing to the eye.
âItâs a pity that the only thing he has is his appearance âŠâ Lin Zishan muttered in her heart. She couldnât help but think of her scumbag ex-boyfriend.
Although he wasnât good-looking and had a terrible character, in other aspects, such as martial arts, he was undeniably brilliant âŠ
âIâm full.â Lu Sheng put down the cutlery and picked up the tissue beside him to wipe his mouth.
âNannan is also full.â Nannan put down the plastic spoon in her hand and patted her round belly. She imitated Lu Shengâs way of speaking.
âBurp âŠâ Zheng Dandan also wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, all that came out was a big burp.
Her pretty face instantly turned red.
To cover up her embarrassment, Zheng Dandan quickly changed the topic. She said to Lu Sheng, âLittle brother, what are you going to do after eating?â
âGo back to my room.â Lu Sheng said calmly, âWatch TV and then sleep.â
âWhy donât we go visit the mountain village? Itâs very lively and fun. I heard that thereâs a performance by the natives.â
Zheng Dandan looked at Lu Sheng expectantly.
Lin Zishan interrupted, âWhen I asked you to go before, didnât you say that youâd be bored to death? Saying that those villagers were all outsiders in disguise, blah blah blah.â
Zheng Dandan continued to pretend that Lin Zishan didnât exist and continued to stare at Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng was thinking.
Nannan raised her hand.
âNannan wants to see a performance.â
Lu Sheng looked at Nannan and then at Lin Zishan. Finally, he nodded. âOkay, letâs go.â
âYay!â Zheng Dandan jumped up excitedly.
Lin Zishan was speechless.
Her best friend was really hopeless.
Immortal Forest Village was quite lively at night.
Walking along the village gate hung with ribbons and red lanterns, there were stalls selling all kinds of snacks and handicrafts on both sides.
Every stall had a small lantern hanging on it, and there was also a large group of natives wearing colourful clothes and silver jewellery singing and dancing on the road.
Lu Sheng held Nannanâs hand and wandered between the stalls, the elegant man and his wife following beside them. Behind them were Lin Zishan and Zheng Dandan strolling side by side.
âDonât tell me youâve really fallen for this Lu Sheng?â Lin Zishan asked Zheng Dandan beside her.
Zheng Dandan stared at the outstanding and eye-catching figure in front of her, and casually replied, âAm I not obvious enough?â
Lin Zishan frowned. âBut heâs younger than us.â
âHeâs only three or four years younger than us, and age isnât a problem. Little puppy, must be young.â Zheng Dandanâs eyes flashed, and she smiled.
Lin Zishan turned to look at Zheng Dandan carefully and said, âAre you serious?â
