I meet all the requirements for becoming a god in this world!

The sun is shining brightly.

On the official road at the main gate of the Martial Arts Academy.

Xu Jiayin wore a pink dress with flowing ribbons tied around her waist.

Adorned with gold hairpins and jade beads, her hair was meticulously styled, exuding both elegance and liveliness.

With a voluptuous figure, her skirt swayed as she walked, exuding an aura that combined both charm and majesty.

But at that moment, her originally bright eyes suddenly narrowed, and a look of disbelief and astonishment flashed deep in her pupils.

Her steps faltered instantly, and her rosy lips parted slightly.

After a brief moment of distraction, her gaze quickly shifted to scrutiny and inquiry as she stared intently at Cheng Laiyun.

Eyes facing each other.

Cheng Laiyun looked completely innocent.

Finally, Xu Jiayin suppressed the shock in her heart and took a deep breath:

"Get in the carriage first."

Without turning his head, he stepped onto the horse stool and entered the carriage.

I watched her back as she walked away.

Cheng Laiyun blinked twice.

He naturally knew why the young lady reacted this way.

At the same time, I gained a clear understanding of Xu Jiayin's level of attainment.

It is known that Qi Dazhuang is at a higher level than him.

However, if he hadn't happened to witness his breakthrough, Qi Dazhuang wouldn't have been able to tell with the naked eye that he had passed the physical training stage.

The young lady, however, could see it at a glance.

So the young lady is at least at a higher level than Qi Dazhuang.

And the high ones are definitely not just a little bit higher.

Let go of all distracting thoughts.

Cheng Laiyun also got into the carriage.

As soon as he entered the carriage, he couldn't help but marvel at the profound heritage of the Xu family's cloth shop.

The carriage was spacious, covered with thick embroidered velvet carpets, and the walls were decorated with dark-patterned silk.

A small table is placed in the corner, on which are placed exquisite tea sets and snack boxes.

The windowsill is framed with intricately carved wooden frames and draped with light gauze curtains, which can both block out the light and maintain an elegant appearance.

The seats are upholstered in soft brocade cushions, and the backrests are embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns in gold thread.

A faint fragrance filled the air, reminiscent of sandalwood or the delicate scent of flowers and fruits...

All of this demonstrates the meaning of "being rich".

"I just gave you the Cold Marrow Dew last night, right?"

Before Cheng Laiyun could speak, Xu Jiayin's deliberately lowered voice was heard.

Cheng Laiyun looked up and met Xu Jiayin's bright yet serious eyes.

"Yes, that's right." Cheng Laiyun nodded frankly.

"In other words, you only started cultivating 'Phoenix Nine Cries' last night." Xu Jiayin said this with a sense of utter absurdity.

She looked at the living, breathing Cheng Laiyun in front of her as if she were looking at a ghost...

"Yes." Cheng Laiyun then showed a dazed expression, before slapping his forehead and smiling as he bowed to Xu Jiayin.

"Speaking of which, I must thank the young lady for bestowing upon me the Cold Marrow Dew."

"It is truly a rare treasure, which helped me overcome the physical ordeal overnight."

At this point, he looked ashamed and said, "I suppose my speed is not as fast as the young lady's extraordinary talent."

Xu Jiayin: ...

She opened her mouth, momentarily at a loss for words to answer Cheng Laiyun.

But she's not stupid.

One could clearly sense a hint of smugness in Cheng Laiyun's raised eyebrows.

"snort."

The young lady gave a light snort, raised her chin, and said defiantly:

"Although she can't compare to me, she's still quite talented."

Looking at the arrogant Miss Xu.

Cheng Laiyun chuckled inwardly, then his expression turned solemn. He bowed respectfully to Xu Jiayin and said:

"Please keep this a secret, Miss. This matter must not be easily publicized."

Xu Jiayin, of course, knew the gravity of the situation, but her expression was one of disdainful smiles:

"Who dares to make a move against my Mo Sect disciples?"

However, when she met Cheng Laiyun's serious and sincere gaze, the disdain on her face slowly disappeared, and then she waved her hand dismissively:

"Oh, don't worry, my mouth is sealed tight."

is it?

I don't know if it's tight or not, but it's definitely hard.

Cheng Laiyun nodded with a sigh of relief: "Then I'll leave it to you, Miss."

Neptune Code, Article Sixteen.

When you don't know how the relationship has made substantial progress, it's appropriate to add some shared secrets.

"Tell me first what colors your cousin usually likes, and what her general figure is like..." Xu Jiayin hadn't forgotten the purpose of their meeting today.

As she spoke, she instinctively reached into her purse, only to find nothing.

Seeing this action.

Cheng Laiyun understood immediately and, as if by magic, pulled a handful of melon seeds from the cloth bag at his waist:

"Please have some. I cooked this myself; I don't know if it suits your taste."

As a sea king.

How could we not try to understand the fish's preferences?

"Huh?" Xu Jiayin's round eyes lit up when she saw the sunflower seeds. She took one, cracked it open, and then looked at Cheng Laiyun with a puzzled expression.

"What is this flavor? How... can it taste so good?"

Cheng Laiyun simply smiled faintly:

"Five-spice flavor."

He naturally knew about the impact of spiced melon seeds on the world's simple roasted melon seeds...

"The taste is just so-so to me, probably because there wasn't enough time."

"I'll make a caramel flavored one later, that's even better."

Xu Jiayin blinked her eyes, her tone full of anticipation:

"Is there anything tastier than this??"

"Five-spice, cream, walnut, green tea, preserved plum, salt-baked..." Cheng Laiyun counted on his fingers, listing them one by one.

With each name she mentioned, Miss Xu's eyes brightened a little more:

"really?"

Why would I lie to the young lady?

"Okay, okay!"

……

This was the first time Cheng Laiyun had learned about the shopping habits of a wealthy young lady like Xu Jiayin.

First look, then check, then pack.

"This looks good, shopkeeper, wrap it up."

"Oh? They've released a new style of jade hairpin! Wrap it up!"

"Hmm? This fabric looks quite fresh, just to my liking. How much is it?"

……

If you like it, just wrap it up.

On the street.

Cheng Laiyun carried about ten packages in each hand.

There were also two or three tucked under each armpit.

He also had a huge backpack on his back.

He looked at Xu Jiayin, who was still excited but whose face showed lingering enjoyment, and was unable to speak:

"Young Miss, there's too much... I can't carry it all..."

Xu Jiayin was slightly taken aback, then turned her head and saw Cheng Laiyun's comical appearance.

"Puchi~"

Unable to contain herself, a bright and beautiful smile bloomed on her face:

"Haha! Cheng Laiyun, you look exactly like a... giant tortoise now!"

"Ha ha ha ha!!"

turtle?

You haven't seen a place that looks more like a turtle yet.

Cheng Laiyun simply turned his head away and ignored the girl.

My gaze swept towards the setting sun on the horizon.

The sunsets in this world are beautiful.

"Huh? You're getting angry already? You're so tactless!"

Seeing that Cheng Laiyun was ignoring her, Xu Jiayin quickly went up to him, stuck out her tongue, and winked at him, saying:

"Cheng Laiyun is a cheapskate!"

Cheng Laiyun turned his head to the other side again.

"Hey! Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore!" Xu Jiayin said playfully, patting Cheng Laiyun's shoulder with a smile.

"Let's buy one last thing and then head back."

Fine.

Although they look exaggerated on the surface, these things are not heavy for Cheng Laiyun, who has already passed the physical test; they are just a little difficult to carry.

Just as the two were about to enter the new store.

A familiar cry suddenly rang out.

Ok?

Upon hearing the voice, Cheng Laiyun instinctively looked over.

A slender, alluring girl with tear-filled eyes walked towards them from the side of the street.

Sister Xinxiang?
