Chapter 25 The Gluttonous White Goose

After a while.

On the dining table at Ping An Pharmacy.

Jade plates and silver cups are arranged in succession, their shimmering light reflecting the warm aroma of the delicacies. Each dish is a carefully prepared medicinal meal, with colors that are just right, steaming hot, and filled with fragrance.

Wang Dong'er sat at the table, her blue-pink eyes sparkling.

Without any hesitation, she picked up a piece of beef and stuffed it into her mouth, her cheeks puffed out, eating very quickly, even the sound of her chewing had a cheerful rhythm.

Jiang Ci'an sat next to Xiao Xiao, silently putting food into her bowl while casually asking:

"So, you just started fighting like that?"

Wang Dong'er nodded while chewing on her meat, mumbling, "Hmm...more or less, but who knew she was so strong!"

There was a hint of disbelief in her voice.

There was nothing I could do. I thought we were all around the same age and not that different, so we could just have some fun sparring.

But who would have thought that this guy was so strong? He picked up such a huge cauldron and smashed it on her. Who could withstand that?

Xiao Xiao scoffed: "So, you admit defeat?"

Wang Dong'er swallowed the meat in her mouth and pouted, "No way! You didn't beat me!"

"You flew using your martial spirit, didn't you? I can't fly!" Xiao Xiao retorted, her eyes full of resentment.

Wang Dong'er snorted softly, raised her chin, her long blue-pink hair swaying slightly under the light, a hint of pride on her face: "That's called outsmarting them!"

Xiao Xiao pursed her lips, her emerald eyes narrowed slightly, and a (⩌⤚⩌) expression appeared on her face.

This guy... he's shameless!

As Jiang Ci'an listened, he had already roughly figured out the cause and effect of the matter in his mind.

During the time he left the pharmacy to deal with the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife outside the city, Wang Dong'er suddenly came to his door.

Xiao Xiao, who was cultivating, naturally received her. After all, the other party was a tenant of her shop and a guest, so she couldn't just leave her standing at the door.

After that, Wang Dong'er showed great curiosity about Xiao Xiao's cultivation method, asking her all sorts of questions.

Xiao Xiao followed his instructions not to reveal the "martial arts" cultivation method to outsiders, so she did not respond to Wang Dong'er's question.

However, Wang Dong'er was so persistent that Xiao Xiao simply suggested a sparring match so that Wang Dong'er could experience it for herself.

Wang Dong'er accepted the offer without hesitation.

Then, what he saw next occurred.

One chased the other on the ground, carrying a cauldron, while the other fluttered its butterfly wings and flew in the sky. Neither could hit the other, and neither was willing to admit defeat.

Difficult to evaluate.

Jiang Ci'an pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Xiao Xiao beside him, his eyes filled with a question.

Xiao Xiao blinked, looked to the side, and remained silent.

Jiang Ci'an understood.

Okay, it's confirmed, my little childhood sweetheart did it on purpose.

As for Wang Dong'er...

Jiang Ci'an turned to look at Wang Dong'er, who was eating at a brisk pace, her cheeks bulging, her blue-pink eyes only focused on the food on the table.

Hmm, her eyes are clear and she looks very easy to fool.

He watched and couldn't help but say, "You can slow down."

Wang Dong'er looked at him intently, her blue-pink eyes filled with an air of matter-of-fact certainty: "It's delicious!"

"Don't you eat well?"

"It's not that the food is bad..."

Wang Dong'er paused for a moment, chewed twice with her cheeks puffed out, swallowed, and then spoke:

"...But my eldest and second uncles would often give me bitter herbs or pills to eat, and either I would lose my appetite after eating them all day, or I would feel nauseous after eating them all day..."

As she spoke, her face scrunched up slightly, as if recalling some unpleasant memories, but quickly, a smile returned to her face:

"But what you have here is really good; I actually wanted more after I ate it!"

Jiang Ci'an found it difficult to comment at the moment.

The young lady has grown up eating rare and precious herbs since she was a child; she's sick of eating all that stuff.

As for his medicinal diet.

This is the result of Tang San's repeated testing with poisons. The combination of each ingredient has been adjusted countless times, with the aim of maximizing the body's absorption while also taking into account the taste.

The young lady had just been floating in the sky for so long, and her soul power was quite depleted. Her body was in dire need of replenishing its energy, so she naturally couldn't stop eating these carefully prepared medicinal meals.

Seeing Wang Dong'er's incessant chatter, Jiang Ci'an's initial wariness due to her identity lessened somewhat.

After all, who can resist a gluttonous white goose?

"Eat slowly, and I'll have the servants make more if you're not full."

Wang Dong'er, her mouth stuffed with food, looked up at Jiang Ci'an, her blue-pink eyes reflecting his face. Her cheeks were puffed out, and she mumbled indistinctly:

"Hmm... Jiang Ci'an, you're a good person!"

Jiang Cian: "..."

Thank you.

……

A moment later, after finishing their meal, it was already getting late. The setting sun painted the horizon a somber orange-red, and twilight slowly crept in from the distance.

Outside the main hall, a burly figure appeared, accompanied by servants.

The man gave Jiang Ci'an a slight bow, then bowed respectfully to Wang Dong'er beside him and said:

"Young Master, it's getting late, we should head back."

Hearing this, Wang Dong'er's face fell slightly, and she sighed.

"Okay, okay, I understand."

As she spoke, she reluctantly stood up, turned her head, and gave Jiang Ci'an and Xiao Xiao a smile.

"Then I'll come visit you guys again tomorrow!"

She paused, her gaze falling on Xiao Xiao, a hint of indomitable fighting spirit igniting in her blue-pink eyes.

"Let me go back and think it over, then we'll come again tomorrow!"

Xiao Xiao blinked, clearly surprised, but soon a defiant expression appeared on her face, and she answered crisply.

"it is good."

Wang Dong'er smiled, waved her hand, and walked out the door with light steps.

Jiang Ci'an watched the blue and pink figure disappear into the pharmacy, then turned to look at Xiao Xiao, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"Looks like we're about to have another regular customer at our pharmacy."

Xiao Xiao remained silent.

Jiang Ci'an paused slightly and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you want her to come?"

"Not really," Xiao Xiao said softly.

She didn't have a bad impression of Wang Dong'er.

Although he had a fight with her and was stubborn, he wasn't a bad person at heart, and they still got along well. Plus, he was good-looking, so she wouldn't stay angry with him for long.

only...

She's possessive of her food!

Jiang Ci'an looked at Xiao Xiao and roughly guessed what she was thinking.

He paused for a moment, then looked at Xiao Xiao, his tone slightly serious.

"Xiao Xiao, you need to have one or two friends of your own. You can't always stay by my side; that won't do..."

"Why not!"

Xiao Xiao directly refuted this.

She looked up, her eyes fixed on Jiang Ci'an with the same seriousness.

Jiang Ci'an remained silent for a moment.

My little childhood sweetheart seems to be a little...too dependent on me?
