The dishes were quickly served.
Qianxun was pleasantly surprised to discover that the flavors of the dishes were very reminiscent of those from the Xia Dynasty.
For a moment, she couldn’t help but smile at Huo Tianzun and say, "Yanzhi, these dishes taste even better than those made by the imperial chefs back then!"
Hearing this, Huo Tianzun felt relieved and then softly said, "This restaurant is owned by a descendant of an imperial chef from the Xia Dynasty. Although the flavors have changed somewhat over the years, they definitely retain some of the original tastes. I’m glad you like it."
This restaurant only serves twenty guests a day and requires advance reservations.
But he held an Orchid Card, which allowed him to come anytime.
Hearing this, Qianxun smiled and nodded, "Hmm, I really like it."
Next, Huo Tianzun kept serving Qianxun dishes while watching her eat with a satisfied and indulgent smile.
"Yanzhi, don’t just watch me eat. You eat too," Qianxun said with a curved smile.
"Hmm," Huo Tianzun responded softly, finding that his appetite had improved a lot.
As Qianxun had to participate in a television program the next day, after dinner, Huo Tianzun took her out for a short walk before they went back to rest.
Huo Tianzun was actually very busy. Besides handling the affairs of Tianxun Company, he also had to deal with the responsibilities of the Demon Management Bureau, so he genuinely had little free time.
Seeing that he started receiving calls continuously as soon as he returned, Qianxun said, "Yanzhi, go ahead with your work. I’ll just go back to my room and check the schedule for the ’Poetry Conference’."
Hearing this, Huo Tianzun kissed her forehead and said softly, "I’m sorry; once the company is on track, I’ll have more time to spend with you."
The company was just getting started, and although everything was going smoothly, there was indeed a lot to be handled.
Hearing Huo Tianzun’s words, Qianxun chuckled, "I understand, a man needs power and position to protect the woman he loves, doesn’t he?"
Moreover, a man striving for his career is the most charismatic.
She was not like the continually whining heroines in romance novels who felt unloved if their men couldn’t accompany them all the time.
How could a man without money, power, or status protect her? How could he create romance or surprise her?
There’s some truth in the saying, "Poverty makes a bitter life for a couple."
Upon hearing Qianxun’s words, Huo Tianzun’s eyes flickered, and his deep, dark eyes were filled with tenderness and happiness, "Hmm."
She was so beautiful; if he hadn’t been an emperor in his previous life, he might not have even had a chance with her.
In this life, he had to become even stronger to protect her well and ensure she was always happy without material worries.
Then, Qianxun also kissed Huo Tianzun’s chin and then turned around playfully to go back to her room.
That night, Huo Tianzun was busy until after eleven before he embraced Qianxun and went to sleep.
While his breathing steadied, Qianxun secretly used her Spiritual Energy to nourish his body and relieve his fatigue.
Because she wanted Yanzhi to live longer this lifetime!
The next day, Huo Tianzun woke up feeling brisk and energetic.
After breakfast, he drove Qianxun to the television studio.
"Yanzhi, this is fine; drive safely on your way back, mwah~" Qianxun said, then kissed Huo Tianzun on the lips.
Huo Tianzun’s gaze darkened, and he deepened the kiss by holding her head.
After a moment, he reluctantly said, "Alright, go on."
"Okay!" Qianxun nodded happily and then got out of the car.
By then, Sun Ze was already waiting at the door.
Seeing Qianxun coming, his eyes lit up, "Su Qianxun, over here!"
