Rebirth of an Idle Noblewoman

111-115

Chapter 111: Xixi and Haha

Gu Xiqiao walked into the pavilion, and only inside did they realize how spacious it actually was, at least dozens of square meters wide. Only the side that faced the lake wasn’t covered with the silk curtains, and from the opening, they could see the lake that was covered with lotus pads and lily flowers, and on closer scrutiny, koi fish could be seen swimming in the water freely.

Xiao Yun immediately took some of the fish food that was prepared for them, and scattered it into the water, causing the colorful koi fish to swarm over and fight over the feed.

Wu Hongwen dragged Yao Jiamu to the arcade machines that were set at on side, and after a while, neither of them felt awkward or uncomfortable anymore.

Not a while later, Yin Shaoyuan and Jiang Shuxuan arrived, and while the former came in with an amiable smile and seemed easy to become close to, the latter came in with his usual cold demeanor, making the air in the pavilion freeze up for a split second.

Xiao Yun and Wu Hongwen were already acquainted with him, so they were only stunned for a moment before they came back to their senses, but Yao Jiamu was completely different. Gu Xiqiao had just helped him to get rid of the blocks in his veins so that his chi could flow even better, and helped him strengthen his ancient martial arts level even further.

It was also because of this that he could feel how absolutely terrifying Jiang Shuxuan was, and for a moment, he felt a great impact on his mental power for a moment, and even the chi in his body became disorderly and even started to go out of control for a moment.

Upon seeing this, Gu Xiqiao flicked a finger in his direction, and the pressure on Yao Jiamu lightened as if it were just an illusion.

“Why did you leave without saying goodbye?” Yin Shaoyuan squinted at Gu Xiqiao. “If this happens, again, I’ll have to…I mean, my mom will teach you a lesson!”

The second half of the sentence was changed immediately upon a glance by Jiang Shuxuan.

“You couldn’t beat me up even if you tried,” Gu Xiqiao said as they all sat down, and after a while, a young and pretty waitress walked in with a silver tray. “Why did you pick this place?”

“The food here is the best in N City. Did you know that the ancestor of the head chef cooked for the emperor himself?” Yin Shaoyuan introduced the origins of the restaurant to Gu Xiqiao, before looking at Yao Jiamu. “You’re a promising one, eh?”

Yao Jiamu didn’t know why he was suddenly cued so he was taken off guard. The people at this table were all in high society, and in comparison, he felt like an ugly duckling, especially the one that sat directly across him that made his mental power crumble when he even so much as set his eyes on him.

He couldn’t even believe that he was dining at the same table as they were, and his past self would have thought he was crazy if he told him about this.

“Young Master Yin, Little Woody is an honest guy, so don’t bully him okay?” Wu Hongwen spoke up.

“I’m not bullying him! I saw him fight by himself against dozens of people once in an alley on the southern side of the city, and he reminded me of Bro Jiang back in the day.” Yin Shaoyuan exclaimed, before asking in interest, “Are you a practitioner?”

Of course, and he was taught by Gu Xiqiao! But could he say that? Yao Jiamu looked over at Gu Xiqiao.

Jiang Shuxuan picked up his chopsticks and glanced over at Yao Jiamu, his gaze emotionless but not uncomfortable as his low voice rumbled, “Don’t talk while eating, Yin Shaoyuan.”
