Chapter 378 - 310
The story starts in Chapter 378 of "Spiritual Energy Rejuvenation: I Began Cultivating By Farming": âOwner, bring us some food, quick,â Xiaozhi said to the shopkeeper, glaring at him.Someone entered... Donât miss it!
âOwner, bring us some food, quick,â Xiaozhi said to the shopkeeper, glaring at him.
Someone entered the snack shop and glanced at her; Ding Ling was aware of it.
She saw that the man looking at her had low cultivation, merely at the fifth level of the Qi Refinement Realm, and didnât pay much attention to someone of such low cultivation.
Mo Wen noticed it too, but he also didnât take the man seriously.
In their eyes, this oily and powdered aristocrat was just staring a few times more at them, not daring to make a move.
âBring a plate of beef and a plate of mutton for this young master,â the man ordered the shopkeeper.
âYes, young master,â the shopkeeper wasnât sure if the aristocrat would dine and dash but didnât dare to refuse serving food.
The beef and mutton had been stewed before dawn, and they were kept warm on a stove.
The shopkeeper told his boy to serve the beef and steamed buns that were meant for another table first.
He personally served the beef and mutton to the young master, and had another boy help pack the buns and mutton for the other tableâs guests.
Seeing the boy bringing them steamed buns and mutton, Mo Wen and Ding Ling washed their chopsticks, ready to eat.
The young master, seeing that the man and woman at this table had been served, was just about to scold the shopkeeper for being too slow when he saw the owner carrying a tray with two dishes on it.
His eyes rolled and he told the shopkeeper,
âPut the dishes on that table.â
âYoung master, thisâŚâ The shop owner didnât quite understand the young masterâs intention.
Was he intending to treat them by sending food their way, or was there another meaning?
âOur young master told you to do it, so just do it.
How can you ask so many questions?â
The young masterâs lackey intervened, brown-nosing and scolding the shopkeeper.
âOkay!â
The shopkeeper dared not disobey and put the dishes on Ding Lingâs table.
Ding Ling and Mo Wen frowned at the annoying man.
Did he dare to try something tricky?
âHow fortunate, friends.
Itâs our first meeting, and I feel like we have a connection.
Iâd like to share a table with you and get to know you two better,â the powdered young master bluffed.
This young aristocrat with oily hair believed he was being suave, and also thought that by lowering himself to their table, they should be grateful.
Ding Lingâs brows knitted together, her eyes flashing.
She had already seen through the aristocratâs bad intentions, which he thought he was hiding so suavely while continually staring at her.
Mo Wen had guessed that this manâs so-called friendship was aimed only at Ding Ling.
The aristocratâs gaze on Ding Ling grew more ardent with the belief that she was a Heavenly Immortal descended to earth, and felt that the man beside her was unworthy of her presence.
How dare he sit so close to a Heavenly Immortal!
Hmph, he thought to himself, just wait until I send him away; if he doesnât leave, Iâll have someone kill him.
âWe donât welcome you here,â Ding Ling said angrily at the young master, feeling like throwing the meat dishes onto another table.
âFairy, donât be angry now.
Youâre so beautiful; how can you afford to be angry?â the young man coaxed.
The powdered aristocrat, seeing Ding Lingâs angry face, found her even more appealing; all the women he had met feared him and were submissive, which he found boring.
The girl before him was interesting and had character, which aroused his desire to conquer.
Without regard, the young master found a stool and sat down, the meat right in front of him, and the shopkeeper then brought him chopsticks.
âScoot overâŚâ The more Ding Ling listened to the man, the angrier she got.
Normally so gentle, she did not understand why a fire was burning in her heart today.
In the past, in the Immortal Sect or outside, she also encountered bullies who tried to harass her.
Back then, she endured it by herself and managed to escape by any means possible.
Today, she didnât know if it was because Mo Wen was by her side or because her heart was otherwise engaged, but the man before her simply annoyed her.
âWhat are you saying?
Do you know who our Princess is?
To speak to our young master like that; do you wish to not live anymore?â Xiaozhi the servant, as usual, was throwing his weight around next to the young master.
âHmph, I donât care who you are.
I just donât want to eat with you,â Ding Ling retorted mockingly.
If these two had comparable strength to them, she would have chosen to tolerate them.
Even if the young aristocratâs family was powerful, given his low cultivation, he would still be a nobody in the Cultivation World.
âLooking for a beating, arenât you?
This woman is quite maliciously beautiful, daring to talk to our Princess like that,â Xiaozhi said maliciously.
After being told to âget lostâ by Ding Ling, the powdered young aristocrat couldnât save face and became angry.
His chest heaved with fury, and before he could say anything else, his servantâs words were exactly what he wanted to hear, believing that once these two learned of his identity, they would be terrified and beg for mercy.
âHmph, no matter what your identity is, I simply donât like eating with you,â Ding Ling was thinking of sending these two flying or tossing the manâs dishes to another table.
But she was stopped by a look from Mo Wen, feeling like she couldnât eat in this restaurant anymore.
At that moment, Mo Wen called out loudly, âShopkeeper, is our food packed yet?â
âComing right now,â the shopkeeper replied.
The shopkeeper had already noticed that the overbearing young master had taken a fancy to the woman and felt sorry for her; he hoped they would leave soon, pay him, and get out of there quickly.
