Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 246 Qinling Sacred Tree (5)

After a while, Ji Xiao took out a set of tables and chairs from the space he carried with him, and placed a sumptuous meal on them. Then he asked, "Um... do you want to come over and eat something with us?"

In fact, Zhang Qiling had no intention of going over at first. However, when Ji Xiao brought out the food, the unique aroma penetrated into his nose, causing his stomach to involuntarily make a "gurgling" sound.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Qiling walked towards the dining table.

The attentive Ji Xiao had already prepared two sets of bowls, chopsticks and plates. She secretly thought that since the two looked so similar, their tastes might be similar.

So, in front of Zhang Qiling, there was a plate of sweet and sour pineapple pork and a plate of delicious braised spareribs.

Seeing Zhang Qiling coming over here, Ji Xiao quickly greeted him warmly: "Come and sit over here! I don't really know what you like to eat, so I prepared some at random. Please forgive me if it's not to your taste~"

Zhang Qiling silently looked at the four dishes neatly placed on the table and a bowl of steaming soup, and replied softly: "It's okay, I'm not really picky about food. Thank you very much for your hospitality."

After Ji Xiao finished her meal, she immediately picked up the serving chopsticks and kept putting food into Zhang Qiling's bowl, because Ji Xiao found that he, like Li Xiangyi, did not like eating vegetables. If no one picked food for him, he would pretend not to see it.

So, while picking up the food, Ji Xiao kept muttering, "Eat more. You look so frail. You should eat some vegetables with the meat. You are a handsome guy, but you are so thin. Your complexion doesn't look too good. You look a little anemic."

Ever since Ji Xiao started picking up food for him, Zhang Qiling never picked up food for himself again. Even though he ate very fast, he still couldn't eat as fast as Ji Xiao. So in order to keep up with Ji Xiao's speed, he had to concentrate on eating with his head down.

When Zhang Qiling had almost finished eating, Ji Xiao filled him with a bowl of soup and placed it in front of him, gently advising him: "Don't be anxious, eat slowly. If you feel hungry, just tell me. I have more. Or drink some hot soup to moisten your throat first, don't choke."

"Well, okay." Faced with Ji Xiao's warm and thoughtful concern, Zhang Qiling seemed to have no idea how to express himself except to say thank you.

Ji Xiao had learned this unique skill when she was feeding Li Xiangyi. Looking back, Ji Xiao had taken good care of Li Xiangyi. Even with the passage of time, his charm remained the same, but his temperament was a little more stable than when he was young.

When Li Xiangyi was young, his face still had cute baby fat, which was delicate, smooth and elastic. Now facing the thin Zhang Qiling (even though he is not weak), Ji Xiao still secretly made up her mind to keep him healthy.

Even though they are two completely different people now, it doesn't prevent Ji Xiao from enjoying the fun and satisfaction of being raised.

After Zhang Qiling had eaten all the food on the table in no time, he looked up and saw Ji Xiao looking at him with a smile on her face.

Zhang Qiling's face never had any extra expressions, so even now when facing Ji Xiao's overly passionate gaze, he seemed a little shy.

However, facing this girl who invited him to dinner after just knowing her for a few minutes, Zhang Qiling's attitude was much better than before. So he tilted his head slightly in confusion, and stared at Ji Xiao silently, as if asking her with his eyes if there was anything else.

Ji Xiao, who was sitting opposite him, looked at Zhang Qiling, who was completely different from before and full of cuteness, and couldn't help but scream like a groundhog in her heart: "Ahhh~~~ How can he be so cute!"

Even so, she remained calm and composed. She just shook her head and said calmly, "It's okay. Are you really full? If not, I still have some food here."

Zhang Qiling nodded slightly, indicating that he was full, and then sincerely advised: "Thank you, but this place is very dangerous, you'd better leave as soon as possible."

Ji Xiao raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, and responded: "It's okay, the things here can't hurt me. But why are you here?"

Zhang Qiling's eyes were firm as he slowly replied, "I have a mission and must guard this place. I can't leave until the time is up."

Ji Xiao waved her hand to collect the dishes on the table, then took out some tea and poured a cup for Zhang Qiling opposite her before asking, "How long will it take before we can leave?"

Zhang Qiling thought for a moment and then said, "There are still six years left."

"Oh. Have you been alone all this time?"

"Ah."

"why?"

"Because I have no memory of the past, I don't know if there are other people, but every time the time comes, I will come here, until the ten years are up, and it will repeat like this."

After hearing Zhang Qiling's answer, Ji Xiao didn't know what to say and could only remain silent.
