‘This proves that when it comes to delicious food, women, too, can be irrational and selfish.’ Li Nianfan smirked, amused as he watched the mother and daughter fighting for food.
‘So what if they’re cultivators? They’re conquered by my food anyway! Seems like even cultivators wish they could live my life!’
He slowly picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth.
‘Hmph, the texture’s soft and chewy.’ He closed his eyes to indulge in the juicy meat dancing in his mouth. Meanwhile, Xiao Bai served a portion of the leopard thigh to Blackie who happily indulged himself as well.
The meal was eye-opening to the two ladies, completely shattering their world-views as they discovered the existence of such delicious food in this realm! It was not until they could no longer fit any more food into their stomachs that they finally stopped eating, rubbing their tummies, and looking satisfied as they recalled the entire experience.
“Mr. Li, thank you for the meal.” Zhong Xiu wiped her lips as she regained her composure, switching back from a foodie to the elegant lady she was when she first entered.
Li Nianfan waved his hand. “It’s just roasted meat, nothing too special.”
“Mr. Li, this meat is only available to the Immortals from heaven, right?” Luo Shiyu could not help asking.
Li Nianfan’s lips curled up a little as he shook his head.
The two ladies exchanged glances with a hint of horror.
‘Was that...a look of disdain?’
‘Does he look down on the Immortals?’
‘Or does that mean that even the Immortals have no right to eat his roasted meat...?’
In an instant, their imaginations ran wild as they looked at Li Nianfan with newfound respect and terror.
‘This expert seems to be way beyond anyone’s imagination.’
Luo Shiyu looked at Li Nianfan hesitantly, as if there was something on her mind. Not long after, she finally asked in an intimidated yet excited tone, “Mr. Li, you’re an ingenious man. May I ask for a favor from you?”
‘Huh? You—a cultivator—need a favor from me? An ordinary man?’ he thought.
Of course, he would reject it instinctively. He did not want to get involved with the cultivators. After all, he had no idea how powerful they were. What if they killed him without him knowing?
However, he did have a good impression of Luo Shiyu, and it might seem rather rude to reject her right away. Perhaps he could reject her euphemistically?
Luo Shiyu did not catch the change in his expression. She continued cautiously, “Mr. Li, I didn’t mean to lie to you the other day. Actually... I’m the Princess of the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty. My father just became the Emperor, so his throne and reign aren’t as secure. In light of that, he wanted to match me with the son of the Nation Master, a treacherous court officer...”
As she spoke, she kept close track of Li Nianfan’s expression. He did not seem surprised at all, in which she rejoiced secretly for telling the truth. She wanted to conceal her identity, but knowing how ingenious he was, she had no choice but to tell him the truth.
‘Hmm... It seems that my decision to tell him the truth is right, after all. He must’ve figured it out a long time ago.’
The only reason Li Nianfan appeared calm was that these things happened too often in the drama series he used to watch back in the Mortal Realm. In those dramas, the Princess or the Emperor would dress down as ordinary people to visit the others. He knew Luo Shiyu was not an ordinary woman since their first meeting.
