Chapter 904: Chapter 56: Aren’t You Going to Give It a Shot?

Chapter 56

A good place can be without mountains or rivers, but without fun things or good food, it’s meaningless.

Xiao Jiemei saw that Yan Yuan was upset and quickly explained, “Wait, we can buy lots of snacks and bring them along, and if it doesn’t work out, we’ll shop online.”

Hearing this, Yan Yuan’s eyes lit up immediately, “That’s doable! Let’s do it that way!”

Mu Chiheng couldn’t help but laugh, “As expected, Yan Yuan is a foodie! Without food, there’s no energy to work!”

“Of course not!” Yan Yuan made no attempt to hide it.

She’s working hard to earn money, naturally for good food!

After eating late into the night, Yan Yuan finally parted ways with Xiao Jiemei to get her stuff from the dorm.

Bai Chenxi hurriedly finished a big case he was working on and returned home, only to find Yan Yuan was not there again.

He inexplicably felt upset; this girl just wouldn’t listen and kept running around.

He thought about how he would handle her when she got back.

After packing her things, Yan Yuan opened the door with her suitcase.

The room was pitch black; she turned on the lights and suddenly saw Bai Chenxi sitting on the sofa.

The man was in a white suit, with dark hair, under which his fair near-transparent face was gloomy.

“What’s with your expression? Did you get beaten up, or does someone owe you money?” Yan Yuan asked ridiculously, dragging her suitcase.

Bai Chenxi glared at her, “Didn’t I tell you to stay home, where did you run off to?”

Yan Yuan would never tell him she went out for a buffet.

She pushed her suitcase in front of Bai Chenxi, sat on the sofa opposite him, crossed her arms, and said, “The dorm kicked me out, so naturally, I had to pack my things!”

Bai Chenxi stared at her suitcase, his previously icy eyes softened a bit.

“Then what’s this?” he asked, knowingly.

Yan Yuan laughed slyly and slid over to his side, “Of course, I’m here to live with you! Cousin! We’ve such a good relationship; can you bear to kick me out?”

“Ahem!” Bai Chenxi felt a headache when she called him cousin.

He let her hold onto his arm and said with a stern face, “I’m not your cousin. If you want to live here, don’t call me that!”

“Okay, okay, you’re not my cousin. You’re my boss, my BOSS, please take me in! Otherwise, I’ll have to make do at Gan Lin’s place.” Thinking of having to draw blood for Gan Lin again made Yan Yuan frustrated.

Hearing her words, Bai Chenxi instinctively turned cold, “What are you thinking? Did I say you couldn’t stay? But if you live here, you must listen to me.”

“I’ll listen, I’ll definitely listen to you!” Yan Yuan put her hands together, looking like an obedient child.

Bai Chenxi glanced her up and down, then nodded, “Now go put the suitcase in the room, and let’s go downstairs and cook together.”

“Alrighty!” Yan Yuan cheerfully dragged the suitcase upstairs.

As long as she could stay here and mooch off food, cooking was a small matter.

Ah… where’s the cook?

This guy fishes for three days and suns his net for two, it’s too much.

When Yan Yuan went downstairs, Bai Chenxi had already rolled up his sleeves and was washing vegetables.

Yan Yuan watched his back, he was usually so busy, was even sick today, yet still personally cooking.

Somehow, such a man seemed to be working too hard.

“Bai Chenxi, how about we order takeout, you’re still sick, you probably haven’t recovered yet,” Yan Yuan suggested.

Bai Chenxi turned his head and glared at her, “Stop eating out so much. Even though it’s delicious, there’s too much seasoning; it’s unhealthy!”

“Are you tired?” Yan Yuan asked softly.

Bai Chenxi gave her a sideways glance, “Then you cook!”

Yan Yuan chuckled awkwardly, jokingly, because she couldn’t cook at all.

For dinner, Bai Chenxi made kimchi dishes, rice, a pot of braised pork, and he also added Yan Yuan’s favorite chili peppers.

Yan Yuan had eaten quite a lot outside earlier, but when she saw the food Bai Chenxi prepared, it felt like she hadn’t eaten at all.

She couldn’t help drooling with hunger.

Yan Yuan helped by setting the food on the table.

After making the last dish, Bai Chenxi breathed a sigh of relief.

Yan Yuan saw his sweaty face and quickly brought a towel over, “Here, wipe it!”

Bai Chenxi stood still and let her wipe his sweat.

Yan Yuan smiled at him teasingly, “Whoever marries you in the future will surely be very happy. You can make money, and you can cook. Will you even be taking care of kids?”

Bai Chenxi looked at Yan Yuan’s fair face, half-jokingly saying, “Really? Aren’t you tempted to try for such a good catch?”

Yan Yuan didn’t think much of it and laughed, “How’s that possible? I’m different from you humans. I don’t want to marry a human!”

Hearing this, Bai Chenxi’s eyes were filled with disappointment.

It’s an undeniable truth and a distance that can’t be bridged.

The distance between him and her was light years apart.

Bai Chenxi took the towel from Yan Yuan’s hand and wiped his sweat himself.

“Let’s eat!” Bai Chenxi said indifferently.

The two sat at the dining table, it was warm but had an inexplicable sense of heaviness.

Yan Yuan has always been carefree and didn’t care much about her surroundings.

She thought life should be simple.

Apparently, Bai Chenxi’s mind was much more complicated.

After dinner, Bai Chenxi told Yan Yuan, “Tomorrow morning, I’ll take you to meet Gu Chengxin!”

“Don’t worry, I’ve been prepared for a long time.” Yan Yuan patted her chest and assured.

That night, both Bai Chenxi and Yan Yuan had trouble sleeping.

Especially Yan Yuan, every time she closed her eyes, Bai Chenxi’s face would appear, waving back and forth.

It annoyed yet helplessly intrigues her.

She didn’t want him affecting her mood.

In the future, she still needed to cultivate and return to the Heaven Rank, she mustn’t develop mortal affections.

If she spent her whole life, giving a hundred years of feelings, she felt it was not worth it!

She still had too many things to do in this lifetime, even though Bai Chenxi was great, he couldn’t make her give up being an immortal and wander the mortal world with him.

The next morning at eight o’clock.

Yan Yuan wore a formal white fitted dress, very professional, yet elegant and generous.

Bai Chenxi noticed that Yan Yuan actually wore heels, which she seldom wore.

It was enough to show that she also cared about this deal.

After all, in the future, she could gain a lot of benefits from it.

She needed the money too!

Bai Chenxi was the same as always, dressed formally and elegantly, yet extremely aloof.

Yan Yuan held her handbag, following behind Bai Chenxi.

They arrived at a uniquely elegant mansion for their meeting.

The manager formally welcomed Yan Yuan and Bai Chenxi.

In a private room.

Yan Yuan met Gu Chengxin.

He was a mature man in his thirties, with a sculpted and profound face, exuding an undeniable aura of authority and dignity.

Yan Yuan had to admit, he looked very intimidating.

“You’re Yan Yuan, right?” Gu Chengxin smiled as he spoke, and upon seeing Yan Yuan for the first time, he truly couldn’t believe it.

The complicated blueprints actually came from her hands.

“Hello, Mr. Gu!” Yan Yuan greeted with a smile, and after a handshake, they took their seats.
