Somehow, Chu Ge felt like smiling whenever he saw Qiu Wuji.

She didn鈥檛 intentionally act cute; on the contrary, she often wore a stern and aloof expression that made her seem like an older sister. But he found her adorable nonetheless.

Eating chicken legs with grease all over her mouth was adorable. Sipping her cola with a gurgling sound was adorable too.

And her determined refusal to touch hamburgers was still adorable.

鈥淏y the way, why don鈥檛 you eat hamburgers?鈥?Chu Ge couldn鈥檛 help but ask. 鈥淒o you also think that eating them will cause death?鈥?/p>

Qiu Wuji looked at the hamburger in Chu Ge鈥檚 hand, hesitating. 鈥淭he vegetables are raw. We鈥檙e living in modern times鈥︹€?/p>

Chu Ge lowered his head and looked at the raw lettuce, expressionless. It reminded him of a distant memory. He used to be like that too.

As expected, Qiu Wuji鈥檚 next words were, 鈥淎nd that white sauce, it looks strange鈥︹€?/p>

Chu Ge: 鈥淓mmm鈥?Why don鈥檛 you give it a try? I used to think the same way, but then I ended up enjoying it.鈥?/p>

鈥淚 won鈥檛 eat it, so I won鈥檛 eat it.鈥?/p>

Chu Ge slammed the table. 鈥淲hy are you acting like my daughter?鈥?/p>

Qiu Wuji also slammed the table. 鈥淪o you鈥檝e raised a daughter, huh?鈥?/p>

鈥溾€o, that鈥檚 what other people say when they show off their kids.鈥?Chu Ge softened and tried to coax her. 鈥淏ut you鈥檙e different from others. If you want to experience the world, you should at least try everything.鈥?/p>

In fact, it was the same with other people鈥檚 daughters because they also used the 鈥渢ry everything鈥?approach to coax children into eating.

However, not all kids from other families fell for this trick. But it still managed to convince Qiu Wuji, making her slightly better than those little girls who refused everything.

She hesitantly opened the hamburger box in front of her. The cautious way she unwrapped the packaging paper made it seem like she had obtained a precious treasure, carefully testing the waters.

Then she cautiously picked a little bit of the 鈥渟trange white sauce鈥?and licked it.

Seemingly finding the taste strange, she frowned and shook her head. 鈥淚t鈥檚 not good.鈥?/p>

Then Qiu Wuji boldly removed the lettuce, scraped off the salad dressing until it was completely clean, and put the bread back. This time, she finally agreed to take a bite. 鈥淭his feels like normal food.鈥?/p>

Chu Ge blinked his eyes and turned to look at a table in the distance. There was a five or six-year-old girl doing exactly the same thing as Qiu Wuji.

Qiu Wuji noticed his gaze, glanced over, and then glared back with an unfriendly expression. 鈥淲hat do kids know about good food? You鈥檙e all grown-ups and you still don鈥檛 understand!鈥?/p>

Chu Ge chuckled. 鈥淵ou鈥檙e right.鈥?/p>

Qiu Wuji鈥檚 cheeks twitched as if she wanted to reprimand him, but all that remained was a glare.

Chu Ge once again picked up a tissue and gently wiped the corner of her mouth. 鈥淎lthough there鈥檚 salad dressing on the side of your mouth, it looks tempting鈥?but my Qiu Qiu is still the most beautiful when she鈥檚 clean and neat.鈥?/p>

Qiu Wuji felt like he was teasing her again, with both of his statements, but she had no evidence. As for wiping her mouth鈥?it seemed like she had gotten used to it.

Just like holding hands and taking a leisurely walk home after a meal, it had become a habit.

鈥淭here are more and more fallen leaves.鈥?The two of them walked hand in hand along the roadside, and Qiu Wuji looked at the fluttering leaves, asking in a strange tone, 鈥淏ut why do I feel like the weather is still hot? There鈥檚 no sign of cooling down, unlike the traditional meaning of an 鈥業ndian summer鈥?鈥?/p>

鈥淭hat鈥檚 how global warming is, especially in the south. If it鈥檚 going to cool down, it will probably be around the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day.鈥?/p>

鈥淢id-Autumn Festival鈥︹€?Qiu Wuji asked, 鈥淚s this festival important to you? The Qixi festival wasn鈥檛 mentioned in the book before, but the Mid-Autumn Festival was.鈥?/p>

鈥淵es, it鈥檚 a festival for family reunions.鈥?Chu Ge sighed. 鈥淚t鈥檚 been so long since I saw my parents.鈥?/p>

He tightened his grip on her hand and smiled. 鈥淏ut now, I have you.鈥?/p>

Qiu Wuji glanced at him and then turned away.

This mentality didn鈥檛 originally resonate deeply with her because it was a memory from thousands of years ago, already faded away. If it weren鈥檛 for writing her autobiography, this matter wouldn鈥檛 have stirred even the slightest ripple in her. But now, for some reason, she was starting to feel something. It wasn鈥檛 because of her parents鈥?/p>

Subconsciously, she calculated that she must come out on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. A festival symbolizing reunion, no one wants to be alone on that day, right?

As for why in the world of the book, there were so many disciples surrounding her and it still felt lonely, while the two of them huddled together in the house didn鈥檛 feel that way, Qiu Wuji didn鈥檛 think about it.

Who cares about such a boring question!

It would be better to study the fried chicken instead. 鈥淭his fried chicken is occasionally okay to eat鈥?It reminds me that I haven鈥檛 properly stewed chicken or duck soup before. I find it troublesome, and our house is not suitable for slaughtering chickens or anything like that鈥︹€?/p>

Chu Ge said, 鈥淚 heard that there are markets where people specialize in slaughtering chickens for others. We can ask about it.鈥?/p>

鈥淥h, really?鈥?Qiu Wuji became excited. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 great! I鈥檝e seen some excellent local chickens in the market. I鈥檒l stew soup with them tomorrow.鈥?/p>

Chu Ge: 鈥淚f you find it troublesome, there鈥檚 no need鈥?I don鈥檛 mind a bowl of chicken soup for my cultivation either.鈥?/p>

鈥淎re you joking? I don鈥檛 want to drink it myself!鈥?/p>

鈥淎lright, alright鈥︹€?/p>

鈥淢eng Meng said we can also make juice from fruits. Let鈥檚 buy a juicer鈥︹€?/p>

鈥淏uy, buy, buy.鈥?/p>

鈥淥h, wait, I鈥檒l buy a bag of milk candies.鈥?/p>

Chu Ge accompanied her into the supermarket and bought a pack of White Rabbit candies. He came out with a smile, holding it in his arms. The two of them held hands again and walked slowly into the residential area.

鈥淗ere, have one,鈥?Qiu Wuji handed him a pack of candy.

鈥淵ou should eat it yourself.鈥?/p>

鈥淒o you think it鈥檚 for you? It鈥檚 for you to help me unwrap it. My hands are not enough. They鈥檝e been held by a lewd writer.鈥?/p>

Chu Ge took one, peeled off the wrapper with one hand, and turned to look at Qiu Wuji鈥檚 salivating eyes. He directly stuffed the candy into her mouth.

His finger seemed to touch her lips, soft and a bit electric.

Qiu Wuji seemed oblivious to it, her mouth filled with the sweet milk candy. After hesitating for a moment, she handed him the bag of candy. 鈥淭his time, you can have one, just one, no more.鈥?/p>

Chu Ge took two.

Qiu Wuji kicked him.

The security guard watched their departure with his head turning, shivering with goosebumps. Who said it鈥檚 global warming? The autumn atmosphere is getting stronger.

By the way, why did he also feel like buying a pack of White Rabbit candies and eat them with that nagging old lady at home鈥?/p>

But no matter how he imagined it, he felt like she would scold him for being crazy. It鈥檚 better to forget about it.

The couple entered their building. They were about to press the elevator button when the doors opened by themselves, and Moon Shadow came out holding an old computer, with a monitor still inside the elevator.

Chu Ge hurriedly stepped forward to help carry the monitor. 鈥淚 said we could help with the move.鈥?/p>

Moon Shadow apologized, 鈥淚t鈥檚 too much trouble, you don鈥檛 need to.鈥?/p>

She turned to Qiu Wuji and asked, 鈥淒o you really not need the shadow ability, Sister Qiu?鈥?/p>

The shadow ability had already been developed into a set of immortal techniques by the couple and stored in the Scrolls Tower鈥?Qiu Wuji had no intention of learning it herself. It was cultivated as a special technique of the sect, and many core members of the sect were practicing it.

Qiu Wuji smiled and said, 鈥淣o, Moon Shadow, you鈥檙e such a good girl.鈥?/p>

Chu Ge glanced sideways. You were just a little girl earlier, and now you鈥檙e acting like a mature aunt. What鈥檚 going on鈥?/p>

But Moon Shadow felt touched. In her heart, Qiu Wuji was truly an older sister with a majestic aura. They obviously got along well. She smiled and said, 鈥淩egarding the box Chu Ge mentioned this morning, I have asked for permission, and you can keep it. If there鈥檚 anything else you need help with, just let me know.鈥?/p>

Surprisingly, Qiu Wuji nodded. 鈥淭here is something I need your help with.鈥?/p>

Moon Shadow was taken aback. 鈥淲hat is it?鈥?/p>

Qiu Wuji pulled Chu Ge over with a firm grip. 鈥淔ight with him.鈥?/p>

Moon Shadow: 鈥?鈥?/p>

Chu Ge: 鈥溾€︹€?/p>

鈥淎t night, it鈥檚 Chu Ge鈥檚 training time. Something feels off when I fight with him. I can鈥檛 let go. But with you, it should be better,鈥?Qiu Wuji said seriously. 鈥淐an you find a training ground or try it in the outskirts?鈥?/p>

Seeing that Qiu Wuji was serious, Moon Shadow said, 鈥淭hen let鈥檚 go to the outskirts. It鈥檚 not far from here.鈥?/p>

As she looked up and down at Chu Ge, she couldn鈥檛 help but feel that with his simple-minded appearance, she could beat him up with just a shadow. Is there really any value in sparring with him?

Chu Ge tugged at Qiu Wuji鈥檚 clothes with a guilty conscience. 鈥淗ey, it feels like I鈥檓 just being completely abused when I fight with her.鈥?/p>

鈥淎nd you think you鈥檙e not completely abused when I fight with you?鈥?Qiu Wuji crossed her arms and said casually, 鈥淵ou always use Moonshadow as a benchmark for combat strength. Now you can directly measure it against the benchmark. Isn鈥檛 that fair?鈥?/p>

Chu Ge didn鈥檛 know whether to laugh or cry.
