Chapter 170 Absorbing Yang Qi
Duan Qingchen never expected to see the girl he had been longing for in a foreign country. He was being pushed back from a hospital check-up by his butler when he suddenly had a craving for a dessert on this street.
He doesn't usually like to eat these things, but he suddenly had a craving for them today. He asked his butler to drive him here to buy them. Outside the dessert shop he was going to, there was a figure that he knew all too well, a figure that he had been longing for, standing in the shop window.
Unlike usual, the girl's large, fluffy tail swayed behind her, looking just like a real one, and her lively ears on her head were also striking. He couldn't believe it; he didn't think the girl could be here with him.
But he didn't want to give up. What if it really was her? He couldn't get over his own conscience if he didn't go. He had originally asked the butler to go and buy it, but now he immediately stopped the butler and asked him to put down his wheelchair so he could buy it himself and see if the girl in the shop window was really his sweetheart.
He went to see it for himself, and even if it wasn't true, he wouldn't have any regrets. But if he hadn't gone to see it today, he would have felt regret every time he thought about it.
Xiao Jiu felt quite helpless. She came to this place without her phone or Little Carrot. She had no cash or gold on her, as all her gold was in Little Carrot's space, which she couldn't access.
She was brought here without having breakfast this morning. Now, looking at the cakes and desserts in the shop window, she felt hungry, but she had no money and couldn't just dine and dash. She prayed that her destined person would come soon, and that he would buy her some cakes.
"Jiu Jiu...?" Duan Qingchen didn't enter the dessert shop, but instead headed towards that familiar figure, tentatively calling out.
Xiao Jiu was drooling over the small cakes in the shop window. It wasn't that she was particularly hungry, but her mouth was just craving something. She was used to eating every day in this world, and she had also eaten all the delicious food in this world.
Looking at the little cake, she could imagine how fragrant, soft, and sweet it must be. It was just a pity. Suddenly, she heard someone calling her from behind. She thought she was hallucinating and twitched her ears.
Foxes don't hallucinate. As soon as she thought this, she immediately turned to look at the person behind her. Anyone who could call her name in this place was either calling the wrong person or was the destined person she was looking for.
When Duan Qingchen saw the girl turn around, he was stunned to see that familiar face. It really was his beloved. He was not dreaming. He was glad he came to confirm it, otherwise he would have regretted it to death.
Xiao Jiu didn't recognize the boy in the wheelchair, but she could tell that his affection for her was exactly what she was looking for—a strong, unwavering affection. There was an 80% chance that this boy was her destined one.
"Who are you?" Xiao Jiu only knew that he was her die-hard fan, but she didn't know which one of her live streamers he was, so she had to ask him to buy her a small cake.
"It's me, Mu Chen." Duan Qingchen looked at Jiu Jiu somewhat embarrassed. He had wanted to present his best self to her, but instead she saw him in a wheelchair. Would she have a bad first impression of him?
"I'm injured, but my leg is fine. I'll be able to stand up once it heals," Duan Qingchen hurriedly explained before Xiao Jiu could even say anything, afraid that the person he liked would misunderstand that he was disabled.
"Ah, I know, it's okay. Just take good care of yourself and you'll get better soon, Brother Mu Chen." Xiao Jiu was a little confused. She knew that the boy's leg was fine. She could tell. After all, she was a fox spirit, a demon. How could she not even notice such a small injury?
She was just thinking about how to ask him to buy her a small cake when she heard that he was Mu Chen. She was no longer as indifferent as before. Brother Mu Chen had been so nice to her in the live stream, so he would definitely grant her request for a small cake.
"Jiujiu, what are you doing here?" Duan Qingchen felt that the two of them were quite destined to meet, as they were able to run into each other in a foreign country.
"I came to find you," Xiao Jiu said, moving closer to Duan Qingchen. "Brother Mu Chen, can you buy me that cake?" Xiao Jiu pointed to the chocolate mousse cake she had been looking at.
Duan Qingchen blushed when Xiao Jiu suddenly approached him. "Okay, okay!" As soon as Xiao Jiu heard that he agreed, she immediately straightened up and prepared to go behind Duan Qingchen to help push his wheelchair and go inside with him to buy a cake.
Duan Qingchen's face was flushed, and his heart was pounding. The girl he liked was right beside him. He watched as the girl's playful figure leaned against the counter, asking someone to pack her favorite cake.
He felt it was all a little unreal. "Brother Mu Chen, is there anything you want to eat?" The girl suddenly turned around, and he happened to meet her eyes filled with tiny starlight. The organs on the left side of his chest had been throbbing wildly when he met the girl. He was stunned and avoided looking into her eyes, afraid that the love in his eyes would show through.
"You can pick whatever you like to eat, I'm fine with anything." Duan Qingchen originally came here because he wanted to eat the desserts, but he didn't expect to meet the person who made him feel sweet at first sight. At this moment, there was no place for the desserts in his eyes.
"Okay then, I'll have another strawberry mousse cake. We can each have one, so we can try them alternately." Xiao Jiu picked out another cake flavor that she had wanted to try earlier. It wasn't that she was greedy; she just thought both of them were delicious and that Brother Mu Chen would like them.
That way, she can share hers with Brother Mu Chen and try his, so she can taste both flavors. She's so clever!
After paying the bill, Duan Qingchen learned from Xiao Jiu that she had lost her phone, had no money, and no place to stay, so Duan Qingchen decided to take Xiao Jiu back to his home.
Xiao Jiu had no objections. Her purpose in coming here was him. Going home with him would make it easier for her to absorb his yang energy. Xiao Luobo was the same; he hadn't explained clearly how to absorb this yang energy.
She'd never absorbed anyone else's yang energy before; this was her first time doing something like this. Oh well, she didn't want to think about it anymore. She was going back to eat her little cakes.
Xiao Jiu's mind was entirely on the small cake in her hand, and Duan Qingchen's attention was entirely on her. Duan Qingchen advised her that she could eat it in the car if she wanted, but Xiao Jiu refused, afraid that if there was a sudden stop, her cake would be spilled.
She didn't think it was impolite to eat something with cream in someone else's car; she was just worried that the two pieces of cake might spill accidentally.
