Chapter 202: Chapter 202: A Surprise from the Ancestors
Xia Xin felt somewhat reluctant, wondering how much of a blow this must be for a girl?
But he sent it nonetheless.
Better a short pain than a long one.
Upon seeing the message, the girl sent a flurry of crying emojis and insisted she couldn’t believe it; she was going to sneak over right now for a surprise inspection.
Xia Xin could only wish her luck in his heart.
“Alright, I’ve replied to all of them.” Xia Xin glanced at the screen, “A few people have already said in the comments section that they are waiting for verification.”
He looked up at Jiangli.
To see Jiangli staring fixedly at the instant noodles.
Noticing Xia Xin look her way, her large eyes brimmed with anticipation, “Can I eat it now?”
Xia Xin was charmed, nodding repeatedly, “Yes, it’s time.”
Jiangli immediately lifted the lid, but upon seeing the fork beside her, she seemed unsure how to use it, “Aren’t there any chopsticks?”
Hearing this, Xia Xin ran out to fetch a pair of chopsticks for Jiangli.
“Chopsticks are more useful,” said Jiangli, grabbing them and beginning to eat with relish.
After a taste, she instantly said with delight, “Delicious! Xia Xin, you didn’t lie to me!”
Xia Xin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Before he could speak, Jiangli said, “Xia Xin, let’s eat instant noodles every day from now on!”
“Ancestor, that simply won’t do!” Xia Xin gasped in shock, protesting, “We, we can’t eat this every day, we can’t afford it, and besides, there are so many delicious foods outside, you don’t know, Ancestor, there’s so much good food, we have enough to last us a long time!”
Lin Yurong chimed in, “Isn’t this thing pretty cheap?”
She gestured towards the cup of instant noodles in Jiangli’s hand.
Jiangli asked, “You know?”
“I don’t really remember, but I have a vague feeling that it shouldn’t be expensive…” Lin Yurong spoke timidly.
Jiangli narrowed her eyes, looking at Xia Xin.
Xia Xin braced himself, “Well, Ancestor, these actually aren’t cheap anymore! She has become a ghost, her memory doesn’t count! And think about it, Ancestor, with so many delicious things out there, like hotpot, would you really want to eat this every day?”
He and the Taoist used to eat instant noodles often.
They were practically sick of it.
He truly didn’t want to eat it now.
After pondering for a moment, Jiangli said, “That makes sense, so we’ll eat them only occasionally and focus on the other delicious foods outside first!”
Xia Xin heaved a sigh of relief and, while Jiangli was busy eating, he patted his chest, still shaken.
Thankfully, the Ancestor was easy to persuade.
Lin Yurong sneaked a glance at Xia Xin and thought he was rather strange.
But as she was unfamiliar with the place, she didn’t dare to speak much.
Jiangli was completely satisfied after feasting on instant noodles, incessantly praising how tasty they were.
Xia Xin just smiled and said nothing.
Could he admit that he was on the verge of vomiting from eating the instant noodles?
He didn’t have the nerve.
Xia Xin finally managed to persuade Jiangli to let the matter go and quickly took the instant noodles out with him.
Before leaving, Xia Xin said, “Ancestor, it’s getting late, you should rest early.”
Jiangli waved her hand, patting her belly contentedly.
Only then did Xia Xin leave, ensuring to close the door for Jiangli.
Patting her belly, Jiangli thought that although many things weren’t great these days, the food really was wonderful!
Previously, she felt her Cultivation Base required no food, but now, for these delicacies, she must make room to eat!
Jiangli felt happy just thinking about all the delicious food.
Seeing her in a good mood, Lin Yurong quietly relaxed and sat down near the bed.
Standing for so long had tired her out.
Jiangli glanced at her and, while pulling out her phone, said, “In Jiaoyang Temple, you don’t need to be so reserved, just do what you like as long as you don’t harm anyone.”
