It’s a pity that with her current situation, even though she understood this truth, she still had to bow her head to face reality.
After all, her body couldn’t possibly possess any cultivation.
No matter what, she couldn’t single-handedly confront Rong Fei.
But the world is such that there is always someone better.
If she couldn’t beat people like Rong Fei, she could avoid them by staying far away.
Not just her, it was the same for everyone.
Ye Yan wasn’t something to be afraid of in front of her, but that didn’t mean it was the same for others.
After leaving the Ye Family, Gu Lili uttered a Spell.
A red light surrounded the entire blade of the sword, then quickly disappeared.
The moment she first saw it, she wanted to bond with it immediately, suppressing her excitement till now.
Long Yubei appeared in the back seat, having entered his mortal body.
"Yes, it did." Gu Lili, brimming with joy, handed over the Huiling Sword to him, then drove away.
Regaining the Huiling Sword made her exceptionally happy.
She turned on the car’s music, selecting a cheerful tune to match her mood.
Long Yubei leaned back, closing his eyes and listening, "Today your mood is unusually good."
"It’s rare, why don’t we not go home for dinner tonight and celebrate together?"
"If you’re in the mood, I’m certainly happy to accompany you."
Gu Lili found a restaurant.
After parking the car, Long Yubei pressed the lock button, and they walked side by side.
At this time, it was the peak dinner period.
The restaurant was bustling with customers.
Gu Lili glanced at the bar and asked, "Are there any private rooms available?"
"Sorry, there aren’t any left." Content orıginally comes from novel•fire.net
"How about... trying another restaurant?" he suggested.
"It’s the same around this time, let’s just sit in the main hall."
The two found a spot and pressed the table’s service button; a waiter quickly came with the menu, "Good evening, sir and madame, what would you like to eat?"
Menus were handed to each, and as it wasn’t a western restaurant, Gu Lili first ordered a crab, a large portion of stir-fried clams, then told the waiter, "Give me a large bowl of zhajiang noodles."
Long Yubei, seeing what she ordered, looked at the menu then said, "I’ll have a bowl of zhajiang noodles too, and two bottles of beer."
Gu Lili asked, "Are you not ordering dishes?"
"I’m not very hungry."
After paying the bill, the waiter left with the menus.
This restaurant wasn’t upscale, just a casual diner, Long Yubei probably wouldn’t frequent such a place if not for her.
He generally avoided dining out if possible.
Mainly because he felt the food outside wasn’t as hygienic as at home.
He seldom visited upscale restaurants, not to mention a casual one.
Sitting there, surrounded by middle-aged men with beer bellies smoking and drinking, he looked exceptionally distinguished.
Quite a few women’s gazes frequently darted their way, and some recognized them.
After the dishes were served, Gu Lili stirred her zhajiang noodles with her chopsticks, when she heard his voice, "It’s snowing outside."
Gu Lili looked outside, and it indeed was.
The two of them ate leisurely, as the staff quickly came to clear the dishes and tidy up the neighboring table.
Just as they finished, Gu Lili caught a glimpse of a green figure.
Seeing this, she visibly paused.
She nudged Long Yubei’s foot under the table with her own, then gestured with her eyes to the next table, pretending to use her phone while quickly sending him a text message.
