Beiye Piaoling's limpid eyes swept across the room as he said in a soft voice, "Please take a seat. I have already prepared some delicious food, spring water, and fine wine. Please have a taste …"
Chu Xing Yun and Gu Man sat cross-legged next to the short table. Their noses twitched a few times. Gu Man wasn't polite either. He directly picked up a plate of vegetables and poured it into his mouth.
Guji … Guji … Guji …
While chewing, Gu Man's eyes widened like copper bells. Soon, he lifted another plate of vegetables and poured it into his mouth.
Gu Man was tall and burly. Up until now, he had already grown to over two meters tall. His body was incomparably sturdy. Compared to the gentle beauty in front of him, he was at least three times taller!
With a tall body, his head was naturally bigger, and his mouth was definitely bigger as well.
Thus, to an ordinary person, it was a small dish.
But to Gu Man, it was just a small dish.
It had to be said that although these vegetables looked simple, the craftsmanship was extremely complicated. There were a lot of processes involved, so the taste was definitely not bad.
In addition, Gu Man hadn't touched meat for two years. Every day, he would eat Green Bamboo Leaf and Marrow Cleansing Spirit Liquid. Thus … even though it was just vegetables, Gu Man ate them with a face full of satisfaction.
Beiye Piaoling looked at Gu Man with disdain as a scornful smile appeared on his face. He seemed to be very disdainful of Gu Man's table manners …
Indeed, when an ordinary person ate, they would eat one bite at a time. Even those who were bold and bold would only eat a little bit at a time.
However, Gu Man was different. He opened his mouth wide and poured the entire plate of vegetables into it. After chewing for a while, he swallowed it down with a gulp. Needless to say, he was extremely crude.
After eating three plates of vegetables, Gu Man's gaze landed on a steamed bamboo chicken. He directly pulled the plate in front of him and tore off the chicken leg. He extended it to Chu Xingyun and said in a rough voice, "Boss, this restaurant's food is pretty good. This chicken leg is for you."
Chu Xingyun bitterly smiled as he looked at Gu Man. He waved his hand as he felt his face burning. Was this the reincarnation of a hungry ghost? How could he eat like this?
He wanted to complain about Gu Man, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that this guy hadn't eaten any meat for nearly two years. Now that he suddenly had the chance to eat the most delicious dishes of the Clear Spring Villa, how could he not devour them?
Seeing that Chu Xingyun wasn't eating, Gu Man didn't hold back and directly threw the entire drumstick into his mouth. Crunch, crunch, crunch … After chewing for a while, he swallowed it down with a gulp.
Originally, Chu Xingyun wanted to get straight to business, but when he saw Gu Man eating like a hungry ghost, he couldn't bear to interrupt him. Thus … he could only sit there awkwardly and wait for Gu Man to finish eating.
Luckily, Gu Man's speed of wolfing down the food was extremely fast. Plate after plate of food was poured into his mouth. He didn't even spit out a single bone from the entire chicken. Even the bones were swallowed.
Finally … when Gu Man stopped eating with a face full of regret, the entire table was in a mess. All the dishes were gone, and only the leg bone of a wild boar was left on the table.
"How is it? Are you full? "Chu Xingyun looked at Gu Man and asked.
Patting his stomach, Gu Man bitterly smiled and said, "I only ate a few mouthfuls, but I feel even hungrier …"
Even hungrier!
Stunned, Chu Xingyun smiled and said, "Bear with it for a while. Let's finish our business quickly. I'll ask You Zai to make you a Golden Phoenix Feast so that you can eat until you're full!"
Yes, yes, yes …
Hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Gu Man's eyes lit up. He suddenly turned his head and looked at Beiye Piao Ling with a fierce gaze and said, "Hey! Girl … where is my brother You Zai now? "
Originally, Piao Ling was just looking at Gu Man eating and drinking with disdain. He didn't expect that this guy would eat until he was clean. He didn't even recognize him and directly cut into the main topic.
Faced with Gu Man's sudden question, Beiye Piao Ling was stunned. Then, he said with disdain, "I don't know where he is either. Sima Feifan only said that you guys would be coming and told me to treat you guys well. He didn't say anything else."
As he spoke, Beiye Piao Ling took out a letter and gently placed it on the table. Then, he pushed it in front of Chu Xingyun.
Chu Xingyun took the letter and opened it. The next moment, Chu Xingyun frowned.
The letter was very simple. For the next one month, Beiye Piao Ling would treat Chu Xingyun with sincerity. However, during this one month, Chu Xingyun was not allowed to take even half a step out of the Clear Spring Villa!
Of course, Chu Xingyun could disobey and leave the Clear Spring Villa at will. However, if he dared to take half a step out of the villa, You Zai's head would fall to the ground in an instant.
Coldly throwing the letter on the table, Chu Xingyun looked at Beiye Piaoling coldly and said, "As far as I know, you should be a girl who is as indifferent as water and has no desires. Why did you get involved in this?"
With a gentle smile, Beiye Piaoling curled his lips and said, "You heard it from Nangong Huayan, right? Actually … who in this world can truly have no desires?"
Chu Xingyun frowned and said, "I'll give you a chance. Tell me … where is You Zai?"
Beiye Piao Ling looked at Chu Xingyun with disdain and said impatiently, "I really don't know. I'm only responsible for treating you. I'm not responsible for anything else."
Chu Xingyun looked deeply at Beiye Piao Ling and said, "You probably don't know me very well. Although … most of the time, I'm very easy to talk to. Even if someone bullies me, I won't easily explode."
Chu Xingyun narrowed his eyes dangerously and said coldly, "However, if you really cross my bottom line, then … you will become my enemy. And I will never show mercy to my enemies!"
Hahahaha …
In the face of Chu Xingyun's threat, Beiye Piao Ling laughed disdainfully.
It was obvious that Beiye Piao Ling didn't take Chu Xingyun's words seriously. After all … all this time, Chu Xingyun's personality and characteristics had been thoroughly understood.
Think about it, if five great elites were openly pursuing his wife, if he really had the ability, wouldn't he explode on the spot and fight to the death with those five great elites?
Moreover, the five great prodigies had targeted Chu Xingyun many times in a row from various angles and levels.
They took away his Celestial Craftsmen Master, occupied his Heavenly Craftsmen Island, expelled him from school, and stripped him of his positions as the Wolf Shooting General and Heavenly Wolf Shooting Marshal …
It could be said that it was the five great prodigies' scheme that had demoted Chu Xingyun from Grand Marshal to a commoner. Even now, he hadn't done anything.
Therefore, the five great prodigies looked down on Chu Xingyun. They didn't think much of him. Even if they wanted to deal with him, what could he do about it?
Beiye Piao Ling wasn't innocent in this matter. She knew very well that her appearance here in front of Chu Xingyun was equivalent to dragging the Arctic Emperor into this matter.
With Beiye Piao Ling's appearance, Chu Xingyun's actions were bound to be restricted. No matter what he wanted to do, he had to consider the Arctic Emperor's existence behind Beiye Piao Ling.
