Chapter 40: God Demon Restaurant
Kids, Jiuge unfortunately caught a cold, so this chapter will be updated later!
If the happiest person in this world is someone who knows nothing; then the most unfortunate person would be someone who doesn't want to know but ends up knowing everything. Su Qi became extremely unlucky and became the most unfortunate person in the world, if she had a chance to regret it, she would definitely say: I absolutely did not intentionally bring up eating in front of Shi Ruiwen! And also absolutely not because of Shi Ruiwen's so-called feast!
Su Qi had lived for 24 years as a good student and a well-behaved girl, firmly believing that the world was purely materialistic, with no gods or ghosts. The occasional appearance of divine and demonic beings only made Su Qi believe they were accidental products, and she herself... was an even bigger accident. However, Shu Ruiwen led Su Qi into a whole new circle, the divine and demonic circle, making her clearly realize that this world really did have divine and demonic beings existing in it.
For example, the man in front of you who is talking at the dinner table, can't you put away your fluffy tail? It's easy to drop your fur on the dinner table with all that swishing back and forth!
"Waiter, bring me a plate of egg fried rice, I don't need to say more, do I?" Si Ruiwen gave the man in front of her a flirtatious glance and a knowing expression.
"I know." The waiter also gave a charming and flirtatious glance to Si Ruiwen, with a deadpan expression, I still don't know what your expression is.
Su Qi Ruo stared blankly at the two people in front of her, their eyebrows and eyes conveying a message. If Su Qi Ruo hadn't known about She Rui Wen's orientation, she would have suspected that the two people in front of her were a pair of lifelong best friends. However, Su Qi Ruo thought again, and actually, she wasn't very sure about She Rui Wen's orientation either...
"Beauty, what are you eating?" The waiter glanced at Su Qi Ruo with a flirtatious gaze again. Su Qi Ruo hastily lowered her head to look at the menu, thinking that ordering food was just a simple matter, why was he being so forward?
"Oh... I'll have a fried rice with egg too." Su Qi Ruo flipped through the menu and suddenly felt dizzy, the words on the menu became blurry and she couldn't make out what was written. She suddenly thought of the sign on Mao's collar, which looked similar to the font on the menu. Actually, she wasn't interested in fried rice with egg at all, who hadn't had it before? But under the current circumstances, she couldn't say that she couldn't read, or else she would be exposing her true identity.
"Oh, is that all? Is there anything else you'd like to order?" The waiter kindly asked.
"No." Su Qi shook her head quickly.
"Oh my, Master Cui, you rarely bring a woman here and yet it's just this little place?" The soft and fluffy voice grew louder, making one's bones feel three parts tender. Su Qi Ruo immediately conjured up the image of the madam from the brothel in her mind, and couldn't help but wonder if Cui Rui Wen was sure he hadn't come to the wrong place - was this really a restaurant?
The boss's wife minced her way to Su Ruiwen's side with three swaying steps, and placed her white, smooth hands on his shoulders. She looked up at Su Qiuruo, her expression clearly taken aback, and carefully sized him up from head to toe before saying with a pout, "Mr. Su, it's been ages! Ah, I see why you haven't come to our humble shop in so long - you've hooked up with someone as amazing as this!" As she spoke, the boss's wife immediately let go of Su Ruiwen and turned to face Su Qiuruo, her hands constantly feeling him up on his shoulders.
"Hey, can't you hurry up with the dishes?" Su Qi felt uncomfortable being touched by the boss's wife and dodged to the side to avoid her hand. But unexpectedly, as soon as she dodged, a tingling sensation came from her feet, and when she looked down, the furry tail of the waiter was rubbing greedily against her leg, who knows for how long. Why are all the people in this store so strange?
"Alright, hurry up and serve the dishes to our grandfather, we have to get back to class!" Si Ruiwen reminded them as he saw that the people in the store were getting too rowdy.
The boss's wife rolled her eyes and said with a hint of dissatisfaction, "We're from a poor and remote place, aren't we unsophisticated? It's rare to see a great god, but can't even hug his feet and get some spiritual energy."
"Hmph! Don't blame me for not warning you, if she gets angry, the entire area within a hundred miles will be flattened, and your small shop is not even worth her attention!"
She Ruiwen's words with a hint of threat made the boss lady immediately withdraw her hand that was about to stretch out, and said with an embarrassed expression, "This small shop is just a small business, Master She, you're scaring me!" Turning around, she sternly scolded the waiter who was wagging his tail, "Are you blind? Such a great god isn't being served well, are you looking for death?! Hurry up and bring out the dishes!"
The change in attitude was too fast... Su Qi couldn't help but roll her eyes, it was really hard to imagine that someone with such a vastly different tone and attitude could be the same person. However, as the saying goes, the boss's wife isn't one to be trifled with, and this woman was a perfect example of that. But what kind of demon clan was she from?
The ambiguous boss and the waiter left one after another, and Su Qiye was finally able to observe the environment around the small store. The decoration of this small store is quite elegant, with a mix of Chinese and Western styles, but it doesn't look out of place at all. On the contrary, everything is arranged just right, giving people a comfortable feeling as if it were originally so. The store was playing music that Su Qiye didn't know, light and leisurely, allowing people to relax and savor the taste of the food. Everything would be even more perfect if one could ignore the gazes of the surrounding people.
Unconsciously, the eyes of everyone in the store had already focused on Su Qi Ruo, but it didn't make Su Qi Ruo feel like a superstar under everyone's attention. Instead, it made her feel quite strange. Those gazes contained too many inexplicable meanings, making Su Qi Ruo feel as if she was sitting on pins and needles.
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm here!" Si Ruiwen spoke up to comfort Su Qiyue.
"Are they all from the God clan or the Demon clan? Why aren't they killing each other?" Su Qiruo had always wanted to ask this question, but no matter how she thought about it, the relationship between the gods and demons seemed strange. Weren't the two clans born to be opposed to each other? Just like Lu Ke and She Ruiwen who were obsessed with their own spiritual origins.
She Ruiwen lazily rolled her eyes and said, "Who told you that the two tribes would slaughter each other?"
Su Qi was shocked by Ye Ruiwen's words and stuttered, "Isn't that so? Then you and Lu Ke..."
"The two tribes of gods and demons have withered to such a state, yet they still slaughter each other!" Si Ruiwen propped up her chin, her gaze drifting aimlessly into the distance. "Each god and demon tribe has different pursuits, even if they can absorb others' spiritual energy and lifespan, it won't exceed a hundred years. After that, who knows where the inheritance will be passed on? But... anyway, that's just how it is! Why do you ask so many questions?" Si Ruiwen suddenly stopped talking, giving Su Qiruo an annoyed glance. This Su Qiruo always brought up uncomfortable topics, she was really detestable!
Doubt! Great doubt! Why didn't Si Ruiwen finish speaking at once? What does that "however" mean after all? Su Qi's mind was spinning with a big question mark.
