The middle-aged man called Li Zhanglin hurriedly stuffed the jujube cake into his mouth. He allowed the woman to pull his ear as he tried to curry favor with her.
"Yingying, didn't you say that the jujube cake tasted good? I want to try the recipe so that I can make it for you when we get home!"
The middle-aged man, Li Zhanglin, pretended to be wronged, and winked at the woman twice.
The woman did not fall for his trick and said fiercely.
"That's how you tricked me back then!"
"If you hadn't winked at me, I wouldn't have left home with you for twenty years.
"Don't give me that. Let's go!"
The woman's words to Li Zhanglin were overheard by a shrewd-looking fatty behind her. The fatty thought to himself.
"I'm the smart one. Eldest Senior Brother and Junior Sister being together is not something to be proud of.
"It's not as comfortable as opening the Spirit Food Pavilion and cooking!
"Women are the scariest things!
"I'd rather use a big pot to make me happy!"
After hearing his wife's words, Li Zhanglin could not help but pout.
How could that be the same?
He had only blinked twice now. Twenty years ago, he was still pouting.
However, when he heard that his wife was going to chat with Wang Fuxiang and even addressed her as Sister Xiang, Li Zhanglin felt a little awkward.
After all, Wang Fuxiang was at least seventy years old.
Although his wife was older, she was not even forty. It was more appropriate to address her as Aunt Xiang.
However, when he arrived in front of Wang Fuxiang, Li Zhanglin still obediently addressed her as Sister Xiang.
At the same time, he could not help but think that if he addressed her as Aunt Xiang, he would probably get beaten up!
However, now that Sister Xiang had addressed him as Bamboo Monarch, he felt like he was on the same level as her.
Hehe! This feeling is quite good!
With this thought, Li Zhanglin immediately addressed Wang Fuxiang as Sister Xiang.
Seeing this, Zhang Yingying immediately knew that Li Zhanglin was sick again. She quickly pinched Li Zhanglin's waist.
Zhang Yingying had heard from her father that Bamboo Monarch had always been pursuing Wang Fuxiang.
If not for Wang Fuxiang's special circumstances, she would have long become the mistress of Purple Bamboo Forest.
Before Zhang Yingying left home with Li Zhanglin, she was the little princess of the Fragrant Kitchen Pavilion. She often went to the Elegant Jade Pavilion to buy jewelry.
Twenty years ago, when Zhang Yingying was still a young girl, she had already known Wang Fuxiang.
If not for Wang Fuxiang's guidance, Zhang Yingying might not have eloped with Li Zhanglin.
It could be said that Wang Fuxiang was the matchmaker between him and Li Zhanglin.
However, Zhang Yingying had never told Li Zhanglin about this.
Even Wang Fuxiang herself had no idea that her words would have such a huge impact on Zhang Yingying.
Zhang Yingying greeted Wang Fuxiang warmly.
When Wang Fuxiang saw Zhang Yingying, her originally calm face broke into a bright smile.
Her smile was full of charm, as if a peach blossom had blown into the inner palace of Ye Yang Palace in early spring.
Looking at Zhang Yingying, Wang Fuxiang couldn't help but reveal a look of nostalgia.
However, Wang Fuxiang's expression darkened as she spoke to Zhang Yingying.
"Little Sister Ying, I'll go and settle some other matters first."
"I'll catch up with you later."
After speaking, Wang Fuxiang walked over to Miao Qi, who was forcing himself to remain calm.
No one knew better than Miao Qi about the relationship between Wang Fuxiang and the Bamboo Monarch.
It was precisely because of this that Miao Qi, who was a pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master, was so flustered.
However, when he thought about Wang Fuxiang's Misfortune Physique and how the Bamboo Monarch was affected by it, Miao Qi's expression immediately calmed down.
Wang Fuxiang walked with graceful steps, and her purple dress swayed. It was as if yellow peonies were sprinkled on the embroidered bamboo forest on her purple dress.
Wang Fuxiang walked in front of Miao Qi and stared at him, causing Miao Qi to feel a little guilty.
Regardless of the reason, Miao Qi was morally inferior to Wang Fuxiang.
In terms of status, Miao Qi's strength as a Class 4 Creation Master and his status as a member of the Miao family's Beast Creation Garden could not be compared to Wang Fuxiang.
It wasn't because Wang Fuxiang's Elegant Pavilion had a lot of resources.
In terms of resources, the Miao family, which had a large number of Creation Masters, could suppress the Elegant Pavilion.
What Miao Qi was afraid of was the fact that Wang Fuxiang had the Bamboo Monarch's admiration.
With the Bamboo Monarch's admiration, Wang Fuxiang was an existence that Miao Qi could not easily shake. It was also the reason why Wang Fuxiang could win everyone's respect.
Therefore, the only thing Miao Qi could do was to gain the upper hand by making a show of strength and pointing at Wang Fuxiang's sore spot.
"Lord Bamboo Monarch is entangled by the aura of misfortune because of you. He can't even refine Law Crystals. Do you know that?"
Miao Qi's words caused everyone's expression to change.
Indeed, because of Wang Fuxiang, many of the top factions that had made reservations with the Bamboo Monarch for Law Crystals had been rejected.
Before the crowd could think any further, they heard a flirtatious yet solemn voice.
"Fu Wenzhu is indeed affected by me. He is entangled by the power of misfortune that I am born with."
"You are right."
Miao Qi was delighted to hear Wang Fuxiang admit it. Just as he was about to continue poking at Wang Fuxiang's sore spot, Wang Fuxiang continued.
"But no matter what, I am still a member of the Radiance Sect.
"If Fu Wenzhu really becomes a Class 5 Creation Master in name only because of my misfortune, then I will just die."
Once I die, Fu Wenzhu's misfortune will naturally dissipate. "
Upon hearing Wang Fuxiang's words, the top faction leaders who originally had a bad opinion of her looked at her in shock.
They did not expect the charming Wang Fuxiang to be such a staunch woman. She actually said that she would use her death to get rid of the Bamboo Monarch's misfortune.
Fu Wenzhu was the Bamboo Monarch's name. Even Chef Supreme's daughter, Zhang Yingying, would not be impolite to call the Bamboo Monarch by his name.
Wang Fuxiang was willing to die for the Bamboo Monarch because she respected him.
This meant that the relationship between Wang Fuxiang and the Bamboo Monarch had reached a certain level.
Miao Qi did not expect Wang Fuxiang to refute his words in such a way.
If it was someone else, Miao Qi would have sneered and said, "Who doesn't know how to die?
But not everyone dares to do it. " However, Miao Qi did not dare to say it out loud.
If Wang Fuxiang really died after he said that, the Bamboo Monarch would not let him off in his rage.
If Wang Fuxiang really died after he said that, the Bamboo Monarch would not let him off in his rage.
He would not let go of the Miao family's Beast Creation Garden, which had invited him to attend the Nyx Assembly.
Just as Miao Qi was thinking about how to make things difficult for Wang Fuxiang, Wang Fuxiang spoke.
"The assembly has its own rules. As someone from a top faction, you should be aware of them, right?"
