Chapter 108 - Maybe There Really Is...
"Brother-in-law, I'm sorry..."
"I misunderstood you..."
After being properly lectured by Luo Ruying, Luo Ruxin, rubbing her slightly sore bottom, came before Ning Yechen and bowed in apology.
Luo Ruying had explained everything to her.
That night, Ning Yechen and Yue Qingyou were merely discussing sending Luo Hongye to the kindergarten at Nanli Academy, with Yue Qingyou taking care of the child.
As for the accusations of infidelity and betrayal, it was all her own wild imagination based on hearing only a partial conversation...
The close relationship between Ning Yechen and Yue Qingyou was indeed a bit complicated, but it wasn't what she had thought...
After dealing with Luo Ruxin, Luo Ruying brought her to Ning Yechen and made her apologize properly.
Ning Yechen also learned that the whole misunderstanding stemmed from Luo Ruxin's eavesdropping last night...
This misunderstanding almost caused him to reveal his identity and confess everything...
Although Ning Yechen found it somewhat absurd, he still chose to forgive Luo Ruxin and even put in a good word for her.
"Wife, don't blame Ruxin."
"She didn't do it on purpose."
Luo Ruxin also quickly nodded and said obediently, "Sister, I truly know I was wrong..."
"Good to know."
"Don't make such reckless accusations next time."
Luo Ruying warned sternly.
She didn't want Luo Ruxin to continue looking down on Ning Yechen or slandering him just because he was a mortal.
"I understand..."
Luo Ruxin replied, feeling wronged, then turned and walked out of the house, sulking.
Luo Ruying watched Luo Ruxin leave and couldn't help but shake her head slowly.
This girl still had the same temperament as when she was a child...
She wondered when she would mature a bit...
......
After leaving the house, Luo Ruxin strolled alone along the streets and happened to pass by Ye Tianshen's stall again.
By now, Ye Tianshen's stall had undergone another round of upgrades and renovations.
The original small cart had been replaced with a larger stall, and a row of seats had been added in front, resembling a bar counter.
Customers could now enjoy watching his masterful grilling techniques while ordering and dining...
A canopy had also been set up in front of the stall, with several tables and chairs arranged...
In his quest to create delicacies that would please Luo Hongye, Ye Tianshen was constantly researching new dishes and improving his recipes.
Now, the taste of his barbecue was so delicious that everyone who tried it couldn't help but come back for more.
Customers flocked to his stall every day, and it was so popular that it was often overcrowded...
Among the tens of thousands of demons disguised in Nanli City, Ye Tianshen was undoubtedly the most dedicated and serious...
Luo Ruxin was once again drawn in by the enticing aroma and silently changed her direction, joining the queue and taking a seat at the stall.
Ye Tianshen naturally recognized this woman who had been with the Demon Lord the other day, Madam's sister, the Demon Lord's sister-in-law...
So he was particularly polite and respectful towards Luo Ruxin. While wiping a wine glass, he asked elegantly, "Customer, what would you like to order?"
Luo Ruxin was surprised to see that the barbecue stall now offered drinks after just one day...
And observing him up close, she found that this stall owner truly embodied both elegance and aloofness.
No matter how many times she looked, he didn't seem like a barbecue stall owner...
And she couldn't help but wonder if it was her imagination, but he seemed particularly enthusiastic towards her compared to others...
"Please bring me one of everything you have that's the most delicious, and also, give me the strongest liquor you have here!"
Luo Ruxin, feeling a bit down, also ordered a pot of liquor on a whim.
The reason for her low mood wasn't just being scolded by her beloved sister, but also the worry of having to leave her sister's side in a few days...
She really wanted to ask to stay with Luo Ruying, but she knew her sister wouldn't allow it.
If she also disappeared, their father would be very worried.
Moreover, through the misunderstanding she had caused, she was convinced that her sister truly loved that man...
If she stayed any longer, she would just be a third wheel...
Ye Tianshen, noticing Luo Ruxin's melancholic expression, asked, "May I ask if the young lady has something troubling her?"
"It's nothing..."
Luo Ruxin didn't intend to have much interaction with mortals, but after hesitating for a moment, she unexpectedly asked, "Let me ask you, do you think a marriage between a mortal and a cultivator can truly be happy...?"
"I believe it can."
"As long as there's love between them, even a celestial and a demon can fall in love."
"Let alone a mortal and a cultivator."
Ye Tianshen replied calmly while skillfully flipping the skewers in his hands.
Luo Ruxin was taken aback upon hearing this, then couldn't help but burst into laughter.
She thought her statement about a mortal and a cultivator getting married was already absurd enough.
She didn't expect Ye Tianshen's words to be even more outrageous...
"Let me tell you, celestials and demons have always been mortal enemies. It's absolutely impossible for them to marry each other~"
"There has never been a single instance of a celestial and a demon becoming husband and wife~"
Luo Ruxin waved her hand dismissively and laughed.
Her initially gloomy mood was lifted, and she couldn't help but be amused by Ye Tianshen's words.
What an ignorant and naive mortal...
"Perhaps there really is such a case, young lady."
Ye Tianshen said with a smile, leaning closer to Luo Ruxin's face.
Ye Tianshen, who usually maintained a cold and stern expression, suddenly flashed a charming smile, adding a unique allure to his demeanor.
Many women who were already there to admire his handsome face were now captivated and stared at him in a daze.
Even Luo Ruxin couldn't help but blush slightly, her heart racing...
Why was he so close to her...
Could it be that he was interested in her...?
He had been particularly attentive and enthusiastic towards her from the start, which was indeed suspicious...!
Perhaps his statement about mortals and cultivators being able to marry was directed at her...!
Thinking of this, Luo Ruxin's cheeks flushed even more.
It was a pity he was just a mortal.
However, as Luo Ruxin was lost in her thoughts, Ye Tianshen's words interrupted her.
"Miss, your skewers and wine are ready."
Ye Tianshen brought the freshly grilled skewers to Luo Ruxin and also fetched a pot of exceptionally fragrant wine.
Just by smelling it, she didn't sense the harshness of strong liquor. Instead, there was a mellow, sweet fragrance that made her feel slightly tipsy...
Luo Ruxin was immediately captivated by the unique aroma of the wine and curiously poured herself a cup to taste.
The sweet and mellow flavor lingered on her palate, leaving a lasting impression...
After just one sip, she actually felt a bit drunk!
It was unbelievable!
She had never taken Mortal Realm wine seriously.
In her opinion, mortal wine couldn't even compare to water from the Heavenly Realm, but this taste surprised her and caught her attention.
"This is delicious!"
"What kind of wine is this?"
Luo Ruxin pointed at the wine jar curiously and asked.
"Miss, this wine is called 'Dreamland Intoxication.'"
Ye Tianshen replied confidently.
This was wine brought from the Demon Realm, not something ordinary people could easily get their hands on.
He only brought it out because Luo Ruxin was the Demon Lord's sister-in-law.
"How much of this wine do you have left? I want it all!"
Luo Ruxin, delighted with the taste, decided to buy it all on the spot.
She could take some back for her sister to try...
It had been a long time since she had seen her sister's adorable drunken state...
Unexpectedly, this guy not only had exceptional barbecue skills and good looks, but his wine was also fantastic…
