"Alright then~" Yu Chen rubbed his stomach wearily and looked up at the Grand Diviner with longing eyes.
Her long legs, encased in white silk, were hidden beneath her skirt, slender and full, with perfect proportions. Her delicate feet wore small leather shoes tied with purple bows. Looking up, the elegant pink skirt hem just covered her knees, and a shimmering purple design reminiscent of a starry sky adorned her abdomen, with wondrous patterns embroidered upon it.
Her fair and tender shoulders were exposed, glistening and translucent, as if they were made of jade.
Above that is the snow-white goose neck, slender and soft, making one want to kiss it and leave one's mark.
Her exquisite face was undeniably beautiful. In all his years, Yu Chen had met very few women who could rival her in terms of appearance.
Her long pink hair was held up with a familiar hairpin, and she wore it in a drooping bun, hinting at her purity.
It must be said that although she is petite, her charm is absolutely top-notch.
"What are you looking at, standing there like that!"
Fu Xuan scolded him shyly and glared at him.
The guy suddenly stared at her blankly, saying nothing, just staring at her stupidly.
Her eyes were unfocused, and there seemed to be glistening tears at the corners of her mouth.
How could she not feel shy?
It's understandable to look at her a few more times if you think she's pretty, but you shouldn't stare at her like that without blinking!
"Oh, I'm sorry, Fu Taibu, you're so beautiful, I got a little mesmerized."
Yu Chen smacked his lips and smiled somewhat awkwardly.
"Hmph, I know I'm beautiful... but you'd better tone it down a bit, you're practically drooling!"
Fu Xuan gave a soft hum, his cheeks flushing slightly.
He's the first person to express his appreciation for himself so openly.
There was no way around it; her talent was too exceptional. The time it took her to rise from entering the Bureau of Apostles to this position was unimaginably fast for ordinary people.
As a result, everyone held her in deep awe, and she had very few subordinates who could truly be close to her.
No one dared to speak to her so brazenly.
"No, no... Fu Xuan, you've misunderstood!" Yu Chen quickly denied it. He was joking, after all, he had a sense of shame. If she really believed him like that and word got out, he would be so embarrassed!
"I was just drooling because I was hungry. When I heard you summoned me, I didn't even eat anything and rushed over without stopping!"
Fu Xuan glanced at him; the honorifics were gone again. But it didn't matter. As long as this guy who talked nonsense didn't spout anything outrageous, she was fine with him.
"I will trust you this once."
Yu Chen was still staring at her expectantly. He forced what he thought was a good smile and said, "Your Excellency, since you've cut my salary for this month, could you at least treat me to lunch or something? I'm broke!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan stared at him intently, and their gazes met in mid-air.
After a few moments of silence, looking into those pitiful eyes, she sighed.
"Fine, I haven't eaten yet either, so I'll take you along..."
"Yay! Thank you for the gift, Lord Fu Xuan!"
Yu Chen let out an excited howl.
Hmph~ Little girl, you've taken the bait, haven't you? I'll make you regret it if I don't order a few jars of exorbitantly priced wine!
"With such a noble status, the divination master would definitely go to a top-tier hotel, right?"
Fu Xuan stepped down from the Qiong Guan Formation. As she passed by him, she glanced at him and, upon hearing his meaningful words, gave a soft snort.
Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?
"Come on, what are you standing there for?"
"Okay~"
...
"Lord Taibu."
"Ah."
Yu Chen followed closely behind Fu Xuan, enjoying the subtle pleasure of being greeted respectfully by everyone he met.
He never had this kind of experience when he was a senior staff member in the external organization.
From the moment he infiltrated the Cloud Cavalry, he mingled with his subordinates every day, drinking and bragging, making it impossible for those rough men to do what he wanted.
Of course, they respected him deep down, but if they treated Fu Xuan with the same respect they had shown him, they would probably drive them to their deaths.
"Haha..." Yu Chen thought about the scene for a moment, and couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the awkward expressions on those guys' faces.
only…
They're all gone...
He sighed softly and looked at the peaceful and serene scene on the street with a faint smile.
Little children ran around happily chasing each other, street vendors shouted their wares, and people coming and going all had smiles on their faces. Singing filled the restaurants along the street, and hearty laughter could be heard from time to time...
Every family is safe, healthy, and happy; even when sick, there is no need to worry, as they need the physicians of the Dan Ding Si to treat them.
So-called,
In this prosperous and peaceful era, songs and dances fill the air, and people enjoy abundance and tranquility.
This is exactly what it looks like now...
That's wonderful, that's wonderful...
Yu Chen's gaze gradually became unfocused, and his thoughts drifted into the distance.
Chapter 11 Can a restaurant without alcohol still be called a restaurant?
Suddenly, Yu Chen felt a small impact on his leg, and he looked down.
A fox-person girl bumped into him without noticing. Yu Chen reached out and caught her as she swayed and was about to fall, then gently patted her head and smiled, "Are you alright?"
"I'm sorry, sir!" The little girl seemed a bit nervous, worried that he would blame her. She gripped the hem of her clothes tightly with her small hands and lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
Her friends behind her also stood behind her with their heads down, as if they had admitted their mistake.
Yu Chen smiled at them, then suddenly spoke up, "You lot..."
The children trembled and stood there nervously spinning in circles.
"She is a girl, and girls are very vulnerable, so they need someone to protect them."
"Can any of you guarantee she won't get hurt?"
Yu Chen rubbed the little girl's head and asked the older boys behind her.
"I can...I can!"
One of the boys suddenly raised his head and looked at him earnestly.
"Speaking so softly, kid, haven't you eaten?"
Yu Chen chuckled softly and stared at him as he asked.
The boy's eyes widened, his face flushed slightly, and he took a deep breath, puffing out his little chest, and shouted loudly.
"I can!!!"
"Hahahaha, alright~ then I'll hand her over to you!" Yu Chen laughed, gently nudging the fox-girl's shoulder so she could return to her friends.
"Let's go, let's watch where we're going, or we'll bump into someone again!"
The fox-girl suddenly turned around and looked at him halfway through the walk, her fair face slightly flushed.
She suddenly bowed deeply, then looked at him with sparkling eyes and said, "Sir, thank you!"
Then he quickly hid behind the kid who was yelling at the top of his lungs.
"Sir, thank you!"
The boy seemed to be the leader; he led the group of kids in saying thank you in unison, and then they all scattered.
Yu Chen pursed his lips and watched them run away, noticing that the little girl would occasionally glance back at him.
He waved to her, a smile on his face.
The fox-girl realized she'd been caught peeping, her two erect ears twitched, and she blushed slightly as she turned and ran away.
Fu Xuan stood quietly to the side, glancing at his somewhat dazed and forlorn expression, and frowned slightly.
"gone."
A gentle voice echoed in his ears, and Yu Chen finally looked away.
He looked at the Grand Diviner standing prettily in front of him with his arms crossed and smiled gently.
"Alright~ Time to get going, I'm hungry, time to eat!"
...
It wasn't that the Taipusi (a type of religious institution) didn't offer dine-in service, but it was indeed a bit late at this time.
The cook was probably on break by now, so since he had brought it up, Fu Xuan simply took him out to eat.
