"Okay, you should eat more. You don't need to lose weight. In fact, compared to skinny beauties, I prefer those with a bit of flesh." I came back to my senses and felt the warmth of Guan Ruolan's thighs. My heart was filled with an indescribable sweetness.
"Oh, you mean that you like those beauties who have fleshy bodies, and you don't like someone like me who is all skin and bones?" Guan Ruolan revealed an expression of sudden realization.
"Eh …" I couldn't help but be stunned. "No, no, no. How can you say skin and bones? Xiao Lanlan, you are just a little bit skinny. Of course, this only serves to accentuate your unique fairy-like temperament."
In fact, Guan Ruolan had also become skinny recently. After all, she had experienced a catastrophic blow. Not only did she lose her cultivation, but her most precious thing was also taken away.
It wasn't easy for Guan Ruolan to endure it. After these few days of getting along, the wound in Guan Ruolan's heart gradually healed. She told herself that it was just a terrible dream. Now that she had woken up, she could return to reality.
"Pfft, see? As soon as I talk about your weakness, you start to use all kinds of sugar-coated bullets. I knew you would be like this." Guan Ruolan smacked her lips and teased me.
I could tell that she didn't mean to blame me. She was just embarrassed by my compliment, so she took the opportunity to tease me.
"Xiao Lanlan, wait a moment. I need to go to the washroom."
I was still a little worried. I had a feeling that Nan didn't have any good intentions towards Li Meiyu. So, I decided to go and have a look.
Speaking of which, if I hadn't learned about Li Meiyu's special ability from Guan Ruolan, I would have turned a blind eye to it. The less trouble, the better. After all, Li Meiyu wasn't a nobody.
Last time, I refused Li Meiyu's kindness. Now that I had a deeper understanding of the Yijin Jing, I didn't need to discuss it with Li Meiyu. However, there were still some things I didn't understand about the True Martial Seven Skills.
The effect of Daoist Zhang's teachings was immediate, but I couldn't digest it in a short time. This was the most troublesome part. If it wasn't for the Blood Demon, I could have taken it step by step, but not now.
Since I've met an extraordinary woman, I don't mind probing her for a bit. If she really does have the ability to resolve the doubts in my heart, that would naturally be for the best. Even if it isn't resolved, I won't lose anything.
Not long after, I walked to the door of the private room. I took a deep breath and gathered all of my strength. Then, I stretched out my hand and opened the door.
"Sir, there's no broccoli in the signature dish you ordered. Can you substitute something else?"
Since I pushed the door very fast, I noticed a detail in a short moment. The young man seemed to be holding something in his hand, but the moment I pushed the door open, he quickly hid it.
Li Meiyu's expression froze for a moment, especially her eyes, which gave off a dull feeling. This was different from her usual self. As for what exactly had happened, I didn't know for a moment.
"Don't you know how to knock before coming in?" The young man said unhappily with a straight face.
"Cough, I'm sorry. It's my problem."
I gave him an apologetic smile and walked over. "Sir, I'm here to help you check the dishes."
Actually, I wanted to see what he was hiding in his hand. The young man replied indifferently and was about to approach me.
A sudden sense of danger welled up in my heart. I took two steps back. Immediately after, a powerful force locked onto me. That fellow struck out with his palm as fast as lightning. At this critical moment, I didn't panic and instinctively punched out.
"Bang."
In the next moment, the fist and the palm collided, and a deep sound was heard, followed by a surging shockwave. What surprised me was that this guy had restrained his strength at almost the same time as me. This way, the shockwave wouldn't continue to spread. Otherwise, everything in this private room would have been completely destroyed, and the people eating outside would have been more or less affected.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this was like a small bomb exploding without any warning. It would definitely be a disaster. Under our intentional restraint, we retracted the force of the explosion and didn't cause any adverse effects.
"Tsk tsk, your strength isn't bad. From your accent, you should be from Nan Yun. If I'm not mistaken, you should be Zhuang Feng, right?" He revealed a playful smile. It seemed like he was praising me, but there was a hint of disdain in his tone.
As a rising star, I hadn't stayed in the capital for long, but I had already created various achievements. It could be said that I had caused a sensation in the martial arts field of the entire country.
Because of my rapid improvement, there was some public opinion. There were also many speculations. Some said that I should have learned from a famous sect. Otherwise, I wouldn't have such high attainments in martial arts. Some said that I had an unimaginable chance encounter. There were even some who said that I was a member of the demonic path and specialized in evil demonic arts.
As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous while pigs are afraid of being fat. I had experienced it firsthand. There were many people who impersonated me. However, once I met someone from the upper class who disliked me, I wouldn't have a good ending.
"That's right. Since you have such a skill, I believe that you aren't an unknown person in the True Martial Hall, right?"
I openly admitted. Although it was only one move, there was a lingering numbness in my arm. Although it wasn't an injury, it affected the speed of my next move.
"Haha, I am Chen Haonan. You are indeed worthy of the title of the Rookie King of the Hero Ranking. However …" He squinted his eyes and said hesitantly.
"Hmm?" I pretended that I was all ears.
"You are too curious. Haven't you heard that curiosity killed the cat?
I am having dinner with Miss Li, but you barged in pretending to be a waiter. Is it fun?! "Chen Haonan said unhappily.
