Xu Liao didn't even know how much wealth he had. The North Thearch Corporation wasn't small, and he owned 65% of the shares.
Just the discounted Heaven Thearch Garden under Xu Liao's name was worth 160 million coins. His entire wealth was probably ten times that!
To ask Xu Liao to take out such a huge sum of money in one go to buy a combat beast for Bai Qiulian, he really couldn't bear to do so. Even if it wasn't Bai Qiulian but Qu Lei, he still couldn't bear to do so.
In that instant, Xu Liao felt that he was really too stingy!
Bai Qiulian might not be from Bei Du City, but the Bai Clan's influence in Bei Du City wasn't small. She probably knew more about Xu Liao's wealth than the young man himself. Therefore, the young lady from the Bai Clan didn't mock him. Instead, she giggled and said, "If you can take out a thousandth of your wealth, it is already considered generous. There aren't many girls who can resist it."
A thousandth of Xu Liao's wealth could be in the millions. He could even easily buy a demon-king-class combat beast. Ordinary young demon girls might not be able to resist such a 'nouveau riche's' attack.
Even if it was Bai Qiulian, who had an extraordinary family background, she would be a little touched when she received a gift of this level.
Xu Liao still felt that he was too stingy and didn't want to continue this topic. He changed the topic and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Bai Qiulian looked like she was in deep thought. After thinking for a while, she suddenly jumped up and said, "Come to my cave abode. I will cook for you, okay?"
Xu Liao really felt that it wasn't a good idea, but he couldn't find a reason to reject her no matter how hard he racked his brain. He was pulled by Bai Qiulian and went straight to the mountain peak where the female disciples resided.
Although Bai Qiulian came from an extraordinary family, she wasn't a girl who didn't have sex. Not only did she know how to cook, but she also practiced a set of spells.
Xu Liao watched as Bai Qiulian waved her hands, and all kinds of pots, bowls, ladles, oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar flew in the air. Like a kitchen elf, she quickly placed plates of dishes on the table. These dishes were also enchanted with a floating spell. When there was no more space on the table, they would lightly float in the air and spread out layer by layer like a pagoda.
Xu Liao had never eaten with such a big bowl. He couldn't help but be stunned. Looking at the more than ten big bowls on the table, he didn't know what to do for a moment to appear polite.
Bai Qiulian casually made a bowl of Spicy Boiled Fish. Seeing that Xu Liao hadn't picked up his chopsticks, she chuckled and said, "Our Bai family has a big appetite, so the kitchen utensils I brought from home are a little big. If you're not used to it, I'll help you borrow a set of tableware!"
Xu Liao hurriedly said, "I'm used to it! I'm used to it … "
He didn't stand on ceremony and reached out his chopsticks to pick up a mouthful of chives and scrambled eggs. It was immediately delicious, especially the fresh chives, which almost made him swallow his tongue.
The vegetables and fresh meat that he ate in the city had all gone through a cycle of all kinds of fertilizers and hormones. Although they grew extremely fast and satisfied the consumption needs of the general public, the taste was getting worse and worse.
For example, Xu Liao loved to eat chives and scrambled eggs, and he also loved to eat pork and chives dumplings. But he didn't know when it started, he could no longer taste the chives. No matter how fresh and juicy the chives his mother bought looked, they didn't have the fresh taste of the chives in the early years. They were watery and bland!
Even ordinary pork had a fresh and fragrant taste. It would only make people feel greasy. Only the more famous brands of fresh meat would give people the taste of meat. As for people who often said that they had eaten pork freshly slaughtered by a farmer in a certain place, Xu Liao hadn't eaten it before, so he didn't know if it was really that delicious.
Xu Liao tasted the taste in one bite and immediately started eating non-stop. In just a moment, he had tasted all the dishes. Not to mention Bai Qiulian's cooking skills, she was definitely at the level of a first-rate chef. The ingredients she used were also top-notch goods that many five-star hotels might not even be able to get their hands on. He couldn't stop eating!
If someone asked him what he felt like now, Xu Liao would definitely answer, "Show off!"
He believed that many people knew the advertising slogan: You can't stop eating good food!
Bai Qiulian occasionally turned back to look at the young man who was gorging himself. She couldn't help but feel a slight sense of accomplishment. Her hands that were cooking also became cheerful, and she even softly hummed an old folk song. The Bai family's girl's voice was slightly deep. It wasn't the kind of voice that was cool, but it unexpectedly had a kind of flirtatious charm. It was very easy for people to indulge in it and find it hard to extricate themselves.
As a monster, Xu Liao's appetite was quite shocking. However, the speed at which Bai Qiulian cooked was obviously targeted at the monster's appetite. She had targeted training, so the speed at which the dishes were served was still faster than the speed at which he ate.
After Xu Liao 'couldn't stop eating' at the beginning, he also felt that he had to wait for the girl who was working hard to cook. After more than an hour, Bai Qiulian finally sent the fiftieth plate of dishes to the table. She also sat on the other side of the table.
With chopsticks in hand, Bai Qiulian looked at Xu Liao with a smile. She casually opened a bottle of white wine and filled it for him and herself. Then, she raised her glass and said, "Is my cooking delicious?"
Xu Liao nodded with satisfaction. He reached out his chopsticks to pick up a mouthful of food and said, "I've never eaten such delicious food before!"
Bai Qiulian said with a smile, "I like it! I'll cook for you often in the future! "
Xu Liao slightly hesitated, but he still nodded and said, "I'll definitely feel very satisfied if I have the chance to eat the food you cook again!"
Bai Qiulian drank up the white wine in the glass in one gulp, then filled it up again. She exhaled and let out a breath of satisfaction. Then, like Xu Liao, she began to eat heartily.
When the two of them were eating, they did not like to talk. Soon, there was only the sound of the two of them eating in Bai Qiulian's cave abode. Although Bai Qiulian had cooked too many dishes, the appetite of the two young demon boys and girls soon reached the bottom.
Xu Liao even soaked the vegetable soup into rice and ate with great satisfaction. Since he awakened his monster bloodline, his appetite was like a bottomless pit. But if he really didn't eat, he didn't seem to feel hungry. Therefore, he had never really eaten his fill. This was the first time he had this feeling of 'satisfaction'.
Xu Liao put down the chopsticks in his hand and couldn't help but say, "This is the first time I know that monsters can also eat their fill! I used to think that I would never be full again. Anyway, I can't be hungry! "
Bai Qiulian chuckled and said, "Monsters are also living beings. It's not that they can't be killed, they're not that they won't grow old, and they won't never be full … In fact, I really want to be a human being. I don't like being a monster, especially in our Bai family … In fact, I'm very afraid of creatures like snakes!"
Xu Liao said without thinking, "I'm also afraid of snakes!"
Bai Qiulian's face immediately darkened …
