The time quickly flew by, and it was already after work, so Su Chen drove to the restaurant that Qiu Yufei had mentioned.

After about ten minutes, Su Chen arrived there, and Qiu Yufei was already waiting at the entrance.

At this moment, Qiu Yufei was naturally not dressed in ancient attire, but in the fashion of a modern urban woman, giving off a different charm.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Miss Qiu."

Su Chen walked over and said with a smile.

"No worries, I arrived a bit early."

Qiu Yufei smiled and replied, and then the two of them headed inside together.

Qiu Yufei had already reserved a private room, so they both walked in together.

Shortly after, a waiter came in, handed them the menus, and they casually ordered a few dishes.

"Miss Qiu, when did you arrive in Yandu?"

After the waiter left, Su Chen asked casually, as he had only returned about ten days ago.

"I just arrived today and will be visiting a few neighboring cities in a couple of days to check on the Myriad Medicines Hall business there."

Qiu Yufei replied with a smile. She was now in charge of the Myriad Medicines Hall business and traveled frequently to various places.

"But I specifically came here today."

Qiu Yufei smiled and said:

"My grandpa said that last time Mr. Su left in a hurry and didn't even have a meal, so we must invite Mr. Su this time to express our gratitude."

Hearing this, Su Chen smiled slightly and said:

"Old Mr. Qiu is too polite. It was just a small gesture, and moreover, I don't quite like those people from Medicine King Valley either."

Su Chen said this sincerely. At the time, those guys thought he was easy to bully and even targeted him!

"They greatly miscalculated!"

Qiu Yufei laughed upon hearing this.

Actually, it wasn't their fault either. Even Qiu Yufei, who knew him relatively well, couldn't believe that he had such deep achievements in the Alchemy Dao, to the extent of crushing Zou Yuan, the top figure in the Ancient Martial World's Alchemy Dao!

...

After they casually chatted for a while, their dishes were served, and Qiu Yufei invited Su Chen to start tasting them.

"By the way, Mr. Su..."

"Alright, Miss Qiu, no need to keep calling me Mr. Su. Just call me Su Chen."

Before Qiu Yufei could finish her sentence, Su Chen interrupted with a laugh.

"Okay, then you don't have to keep calling me Miss Qiu either, just call me Yufei."

Qiu Yufei, being a casual person, said with a smile.

The two of them chatted casually while eating, and time passed quickly.

With the change in how they addressed each other, their conversation became more relaxed.

Su Chen discovered that Yufei indeed had a very good personality, and likewise, Qiu Yufei found that Su Chen was very interesting to talk to, always making her laugh!

Time flew by, and before they knew it, they had almost finished eating.

The two of them then left and came to the corridor of the restaurant. It had just rained earlier, so the air was particularly fresh.

"Su Chen, could you take a walk with me?"

Qiu Yufei turned her head and smiled at him.

Su Chen nodded in response:

"Of course, I was just thinking of taking a walk too."

So they walked onto the street; by then, the sky had darkened, and the neon lights were flickering.

They strolled around casually without a specific direction.

"By the way, Mr. Su, how is it that you have such profound Pill Cultivation at such a young age?"

Qiu Yufei suddenly asked.

"That's because I am charmingly handsome and extraordinarily charismatic!"

Su Chen casually boasted with a serious face.

Qiu Yufei couldn't help but laugh at his words:

"Su Chen, you really have a thick skin!"

"Do you not think I'm handsome?"

Su Chen asked in surprise:

"No way? Every morning when I look in the mirror, I get amazed by my own handsomeness!"

"Pfft!"

Hearing that, Qiu Yufei couldn't hold back and burst into laughter!

This guy, his words are truly… amusing!

Of course, she understood that he didn't want to talk about it, so she didn't pursue further.

She was purely curious; after all, everyone at the elixir conference that day harbored similar curiosity!

Pill Cultivation, after all, accumulates gradually over the years, and it was truly incredible for him to have such Pill Cultivation at such a young age.

"By the way, Su Chen, if you ever need any herbs or anything, feel free to contact me, and I'll arrange for the Myriad Medicines Hall team to deliver them to you."

Qiu Yufei said with a smile.

Su Chen quickly replied upon hearing that:

"How could I possibly accept that?"

"Don't say that. You helped us a great deal, so this is hardly anything."

Qiu Yufei said with a smile:

"If you don't accept, I won't be able to explain to my grandpa when I return."

"Alright then, but I'll go fetch them myself; it doesn't feel right to trouble you for delivery."

Seeing how Qiu Yufei put it, Su Chen agreed, as he indeed needed various herbs for alchemy.

"By the way, Su Chen, you should be careful of Medicine King Valley. They might take some action against you."

Qiu Yufei said solemnly after pondering for a moment.

That was an important reason why she invited Su Chen for dinner.

"Is it really that serious? It was just a contest win!"

Su Chen said upon hearing this.

"You don't know Zou Yuan; he's a vengeful person!"

Qiu Yufei said:

"Moreover, your existence might affect Medicine King Valley's position in the Ancient Martial World's Alchemy Dao!"

Thinking about Qiu Yufei's words, Su Chen realized there was indeed such a possibility!

After all, he never dared to overestimate the moral lower limit of those forces!

"I understand!"

Su Chen smiled, not taking it too seriously.

Qiu Yufei looked at him and said:

"If there's anything you need help with, feel free to contact me, and we'll do our best with Myriad Medicine Pavilion's resources!"

"Thank you!"

Su Chen chuckled casually.

They walked further while chatting for a bit and then parted ways.

Qiu Yufei had taken a cab, so she casually hailed one and left.

Su Chen also turned back the way he came; they had walked a good one or two kilometers chatting along the way.

...

As Su Chen was halfway back, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

This figure appeared just like a Ghost, suddenly emerging here, his eyes fixed on Su Chen!

Su Chen naturally realized this person was here for him and couldn't help but look back at him!

"My young master has a message for you."

The man opened his mouth, speaking in a calm tone:

"Stay away from Miss Dugu Mingyue in the future!"

His tone was incredibly arrogant, as if he were issuing an order or command!

At this moment, Su Chen couldn't help but feel baffled, with a person suddenly appearing and saying such a thing to him!

Isn't this crazy!
