Chapter 249: Rich woman still likes to eat chicken, I am very relieved
Chu Wantang's eyes were filled with shame and anger, her face was frighteningly red. She glared at Lu Zhan, as if she wanted to kill him with her eyes, but it was a pity that her peach blossom eyes really had no killing power. Instead, they were full of affection and a sense of wanting to speak but not being able to.
"Why are you glaring at me?" Lu Zhan looked at her blushing face and said innocently, "I didn't do anything to you."
Chu Wantang bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth. The more innocent he was, the more embarrassed she felt. She couldn't let her take the initiative to say that her earlobes were sensitive...
This guy is obviously an expert at flirting with women, how could he not even see this?
It must be intentional!
Chu Wantang was so angry, but didn't know how to start, so he could only open the jade pendant and instantly switch to aloof mode: "How dare you!"
?
Lu Zhan saw her tone suddenly change, and even her expression became aloof, so he knew that she had switched modes. This was so unfair. She hadn't even explained the blushing thing yet, and she was forced into sage mode. This was simply cheating.
Seeing her aggressive look, Lu Zhan did not continue to provoke her, and soothed her in a gentle voice: "Alright, alright, although I don't know where I went wrong, I still apologize to you. Don't be angry, or how about I treat you to a meal?"
"What do you want to eat?" Chu Wantang asked coldly, but the last time she had dinner with Lu Zhan appeared in her mind.
It clearly happened several months ago, but she remembered it vividly as if it had just happened yesterday. She seemed to remember everything about Lu Zhan particularly clearly.
Lu Zhan was very generous: "I'll treat you to a state banquet."
The cold Xiao Chu's eyelids jumped, and he was busy turning off the function of the jade pendant, and his true nature was immediately exposed: "State banquet? State banquets can only be eaten in the palace. You dare to call your cooking a state banquet, are you going to die?"
The Great Zhou state banquet was extremely sumptuous, with hundreds of dishes. Ordinary people had never even seen it, let alone tasted it.
"It's not the state banquet of the Great Zhou. You will know it later." Lu Zhan took her towards home. Now that Jinling Duct was destroyed and the matter of Black Water Sect came to an end, the Twelve Land Alliance had the Demon Suppression Division to deal with it. It was a rare opportunity for him to have some free time, so he didn't mind playing with Xiao Chu for a while.
After going to Bian Jing, such opportunities became less frequent.
At that time, he was a small town demon master, but Xiao Chu was the direct disciple of the Grand Master, and also a noble lady cultivated by the Qin family with all her efforts. She had a noble status, so they had to choose the right time to meet.
If it were in the novel, according to his and Xiao Chu's identities, the beginning should be 'poor boy marries a rich woman, but is despised by the rich woman, and then turns into a god of war to slap everyone in the face...', it would never be as harmonious as it is now.
Chu Wantang also knew this very well. She twisted her waist to keep up, and when she thought of the delicious food Lu Zhan had made, she couldn't help but licking her lips.
……
The courtyard in autumn is not as lively as in summer. There are fewer birds and the flowers are withered. There are scattered fallen ginkgo leaves on the ground. Under the morning light, it is quiet and a little lonely.
Chu Wantang followed behind with his hands behind his back, looking extremely excited in his heart, but with a calm expression on his face: "Don't keep me in suspense, what delicious food is this? Show me quickly."
As he was speaking, Xiao Chu heard a gurgling sound from his abdomen.
Lu Zhan's eyelids jumped: "You didn't practice fasting?"
"I'm fasting, and it was my stomach that was speaking to me just now." Xiao Chu held his head high and said confidently, "My stomach is telling you that it's hungry. I hope you won't be ungrateful and take it out and eat it quickly."
Your stomach is truly magical... Lu Zhan turned and headed for the backyard, taking out several jars from his treasured collection.
"What is this?" Chu Wantang watched Lu Zhan's actions. Could it be that the state banquet was hidden in the jar?
"You'll know later." Lu Zhan opened the mouth of the jar mysteriously, took out a plate and chopsticks, and took out a small plate from each jar and placed them on the table.
Chu Wantang's face gradually fell. She pointed at the dishes and said, "Aren't these just pickles? Don't try to fool me."
If Yueyue were here, she would probably say, 'I'm not that stupid woman like Jiang Ningshuang, don't try to fool me'... Lu Zhan introduced seriously, "In a certain dynasty and a certain country, once these kimchi were served, along with a few vegetable rolls and tofu soup, it would be a state banquet. Let me show you my skills."
Chu Wantang's face completely fell, she didn't believe Lu Zhan's nonsense, but she also found his mysterious look very interesting, which made her reluctant to leave. She simply sat on the stool and waited to see what tricks Lu Zhan could play.
Lu Zhan skillfully cut tofu and cooked soup, and threw a lot of pickled cabbage into the soup. This soup looked fancy, but it actually didn't require any technical skills. It was a pity that there was no all-purpose hot sauce here, which made it a bit lacking.
After the soup was cooked, Lu Zhan took out some tofu skin and rolled it with cucumber shreds and kimchi.
Normally, even if Lu Zhan wasn't fasting, he rarely cooked by himself, but now it was worth it to be able to warm the rich woman's heart with a simple meal.
Soon, Lu Zhan brought up the tofu soup and vegetable rolls, and went to the room to get a jar of wine.
"Eat it, don't be polite to me." Lu Zhan opened the lid of the wine: "The real Imperial Jade Liquor, I made it according to the book."
Da Zhou's liquor was too strong and Lu Zhan couldn't handle it, so he mixed some boiled water into it. He would drink two glasses with his meals. It had the taste of alcohol but didn't make him drunk. The recipe given by Teacher Zhao was indeed correct.
Chu Wantang opened her mouth, a little dumbfounded. She didn't expect this to be the so-called state banquet. It was completely different from what she had imagined.
The little beauty didn't move her chopsticks, but pouted and complained, "Are you deliberately fooling me? Which history book records this country? How could it be so shabby? I don't believe it. You must be teasing me on purpose."
"I swear to God, I really don't have it this time." Lu Zhan advised: "Try it, I pickled it myself, you won't have this chance again in the future."
Chu Wantang looked at the state banquet and didn't want to eat it, but when she thought that it was made by Lu Zhan himself, she gritted her teeth and ate it. The taste was different from what she had imagined. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't delicious either.
She simply ate a few bites, drank a sip of the Imperial Court Jade Wine, pouted her lips, and gave a bad review: "It's not tasty, I want to eat chicken."
"There is no chicken today. I'll give you chicken another day." Lu Zhan refused mercilessly. It seemed that the Korean state banquet did not play its due role and failed to please the rich woman, but it was a good side dish for rice.
The rich woman still likes to eat my chicken, which makes me feel relieved... Lu Zhan is very satisfied with this result.
Xiao Chu kicked her feet, causing her skirt to fly up, and said unhappily, "Okay, then you must keep your word. Even if we arrive in Bianjing, you can't break your promise!"
"I will never break my promise." Lu Zhan stretched out his hand and high-fived her, and then said, "I will need your care after arriving in Bian Jing. How could I break my promise? I can't wait to curry favor with you."
"Why do you need my care? Don't you have a good relationship with Xie Yu and Zhu Fei?" Chu Wantang raised the corners of his lips, feeling happy in his heart, but calm in his words: "Also, Zhu Fei told me about the poem you wrote to me last time. Did you write that poem for me?"
Which poem? Lu Zhan thought for a while before he realized it was the one from Donghai: "Yes, I wrote it for you."
"I was obviously not there at that time, so why did you suddenly want to write a poem for me?" Chu Wantang was not like Jiang Jiang, who had big breasts and no brains. Her breasts were very flat, and all the nutrients went to her brain.
Lu Zhan knew that he couldn't say too much, otherwise he would be exposed. He said seriously: "Even though we are far apart, I still miss you in my heart!"
Chu Wantang's heart skipped a beat. Her face turned red and she said coquettishly, "Lu Guanqi, what are you talking about? I won't talk to you anymore. I have things to do. I'm leaving..."
After saying that, without waiting for Lu Zhan to speak, Xiao Chu hurriedly stood up, twisted his waist and walked away.
The fallen leaves are dancing in the autumn, and her aqua green dress is like a nimble butterfly, swaying gracefully in the cool breeze of late autumn.
Looking at her back, Lu Zhan suddenly thought of Jiang Jiang.
During the incident at Wangyue Teahouse, Jiang Jiang's argument with Xiao Chu ended in failure. It is said that after the gathering, Jiang Jiang went back to Tongfu Inn crying, pounding the wall, regretting that she did not perform well during the argument, and vowed to scratch Xiao Chu's face the next time she saw him.
Lu Zhan heard this rumor from the innkeeper of Tongfu Inn. At that time, the old innkeeper asked him to comfort Jiang Jiang, but considering that the two of them were not that close, Lu Zhan did not take it seriously. Now he suddenly remembered...
But now look, how can Xiao Chu be so poisonous? Obviously, he is easy to deal with, and he can defeat the enemy with just a few words.
After seeing Miss Chu off, Lu Zhan closed the doors and windows, drew the curtains, and went to bed.
He has never really had a rest since he came back from the East China Sea. Although he was quiet for a few days in the Yunshui Sect, he was either practicing or reclaiming the land. After coming back, he was even more involved in the troubles of the Heishui Sect. Lu Zhan felt tired and needed a rest.
However, as soon as he lay down, the soul bowl began to vibrate urgently.
Lu Zhan had no choice but to send his consciousness into the soul bowl, and saw that Elder Heishui was going crazy.
……
[Black Water Elder]: "Why is No. 2's soul lamp extinguished? Aren't you two together? No. 3? Speak!"
Lu Zhan was not surprised when he saw the news. The death of Number Two was not a big deal, but Number Two was rescued by Ji Mengli herself, and he suddenly died at this critical moment. Ji Mengli must be unhappy.
He had already thought of his words, so he was not panicking at all and typed quickly.
[Blackwater No. 3]: "We went our separate ways after returning to Jinling yesterday. No. 2 said an old friend of mine was leaving Jinling, and he wanted to see him off."
In an unknown cave, Ji Mengli was lying on a soft couch covered with white fox fur, her towering breasts rising and falling.
She was heartbroken by the annihilation of the entire Jinling Duo army. As soon as she returned to the temporary base, she received news that the No. 2 soul lamp had gone out, which was undoubtedly adding insult to injury.
Seeing Lu Zhan's reply, Ji Mengli's eyelids jumped, and her consciousness input: "Did he say who he was going to meet?"
As expected, he was anxious... Lu Zhan made up a story: "Just say he is a colleague from our sect."
Ji Mengli fell into deep thought. The members of the Black Water Sect in Jinling City were either killed or captured by the Demon Suppression Division. Even those who went to negotiate with the Twelve Earth Alliance were mostly captured. If Lu Zhan hadn't helped at the critical moment, even Mei Ji and Rou Ji would have been captured...
If we talk about the only surviving small force in Jinling, and the people who have a entanglement with Blackwater II...
Pei Qian!
Ji Mengli narrowed her eyes and ordered the servant beside her: "Go check Pei Qian's movements. If there is any unusual movement, kill him without mercy."
Lu Zhan was a little annoyed when he saw that Ji Mengli didn’t reply immediately. What a mean woman, is this? She won’t let him sleep.
About a minute passed before Ji Mengli replied.
[Black Water Elder]: "This battle resulted in heavy losses. Two key members, No. 2 and No. 6, were killed. No. 3, please stay hidden."
[Blackwater-3]: "Received."
Lu Zhan looked at the quiet group and thought back to when he first joined. This bunch of idiots stayed up all day long and did not sleep. Now, most of the guys who liked to hang out in the group are dead, and the group immediately became quiet.
Those divers don’t know what it is, but they will see it sooner or later.
Even the Black Water Sect chat group has changed, let alone everything in the outside world.
Lu Zhan felt a little emotional, and just as he was about to withdraw his consciousness from the Soul Bowl, he suddenly received a private message.
[Blackwater No. 4]: "I have heard about what happened in Nanjing. Are you not hurt?"
It turned out that Yueyue came to care about me... Lu Zhan replied: "No, it's just that the loss was heavy and the elders were very disappointed."
[Blackwater-Four]: "It'll be fine. You better be careful, Six-Nine."
Seeing the word "sixty-nine", Lu Zhan immediately smiled. When he and Ling Jiaoyue parted ways, they had agreed on a secret code, "sixty-nine" meant missing each other.
Although the Soul Bowl is convenient to use, the terminal is with Ji Mengli, and the stinky woman has the authority to view the records. Some things must be replaced with other words, otherwise they will be easily exposed.
