Is it just pretending?
When he came out of Yaoji Hall, Ruan Nanxing not only took away a large amount of spiritual stones, but also signed a long-term elixir supply agreement, mainly Zengling Dan and Tongmai Dan.
Only fifty pills per month.
From now on, she will have to come to the city to deliver goods once a month. Although it is troublesome, thinking about the profits, Ruan Nanxing feels that the future is full of expectations.
"Now go sell elixirs!" Ruan Nanxing was very interested. He turned around to leave, but was grabbed by Gu Jiuzhou, "It's very late, let's find a place to rest first."
It was already dark when they entered the city, and now the shops on both sides of the street were beginning to close.
Ruan Nanxing clicked his tongue, "Okay, let's find an inn first. I have money, and I'll treat you this time!"
Gu Jiuzhou did not refuse and led her through an alley to another street.
Unlike the previous commercial street, this street is mostly filled with restaurants, restaurants and inns, and the smell makes people salivate.
Ruan Nanxing's nose moved and he said excitedly: "It smells like barbecue!" He followed the smell and looked for it.
Gu Jiuzhou took her wrist and led her in the opposite direction, "This way."
Ruan Nanxing turned around obediently and continued rushing.
After a while, Ruan Nanxing dragged Gu Jiuzhou to the entrance of a barbecue restaurant called Wine and Meat Confidant.
She swallowed her saliva and muttered: "Who can withstand this?" She strode into the store and shouted: "Waiter, get a portion of your signature barbecue!"
"Okay! Guests, please come in!" the waiter who was busy serving the dishes replied loudly.
Ruan Nanxing took a look inside the store and saw that most of the tables were full. Only a few tables near the kitchen were still empty. She and Gu Jiuzhou walked over and sat down at the empty tables.
The waiter finished his work and came over to greet them, "The most famous ones here are the roasted beetle and the secret roasted goose. The smoked squab is also good, and the spicy chicken feet. How about a pot of our special wine?"
Ruan Nanxing nodded, "That's it. Hurry and serve."
The waiter responded with a smile, turned around and went to the kitchen to order the food.
Gu Jiuzhou asked quietly: "Can you finish eating after ordering so much?"
Ruan Nanxing touched her belly. She could not feel hunger in her body, and naturally she would not feel full. In other words, she could keep eating as long as she wanted!
She grinned at Gu Jiuzhou and got vaccinated in advance, "Actually, I eat very well. I didn't eat much before because my family was poor. Now..." She raised her chin and said proudly: "I am rich now."
There was something subtle in Gu Jiuzhou's plain eyes, "Have you never had enough to eat before?"
Ruan Nanxing replied thoughtfully: "I don't remember what happened before I came to the village, but I really didn't eat much during this time. Although I brought a lot of things with me, there was very little I could eat directly."
"Have you also lost your memory?" Gu Jiuzhou's expression became more and more subtle.
Ruan Nanxing nodded matter-of-factly, "Yes, my master and Youyou both know." She thought for a moment, frowned and asked, "Didn't I tell you?"
Gu Jiuzhou nodded, "This is indeed the first time I've heard of it."
Ruan Nanxing waved his hand carelessly, "It's not an important thing anyway."
Gu Jiuzhou was puzzled, "Do you think past memories are not important?"
Ruan Nanxing thought for a while, put himself in the place of his amnesia, and said with empathy: "It's not unimportant, it's just that the past is the past, and you can't change anything if you think about it. It's a good memory, but what if it's not? What if I used to
My life is very painful? It’s better to forget it. I’m very satisfied with my current life.”
Gu Jiuzhou nodded thoughtfully and waited until the dishes were served before asking again: "Don't you want to know where your home is? Don't you want to know if you have any relatives at home?"
Ruan Nanxing squinted and finished the beef in his mouth with enjoyment, and then said: "If there are really relatives alive, they will definitely find a way to find me. I just need to wait."
Hearing this, Gu Jiuzhou commented: "You are a bit heartless."
Ruan Nanxing wrinkled his nose, as if he was a little dissatisfied, but said in a serious tone: "You can't let me, an amnesiac, go to the fairy world to find them, right? Let's stop talking, let's eat meat!"
Now that the food is delicious, it would be impolite to ask.
As expected, Gu Jiuzhou didn't say much, but he didn't eat meat either. Instead, he poured a glass of the store's special brew and tasted it slowly.
Ruan Nanxing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and silently prayed that this was the first and last time they discussed the topic of life experience, and that they would never bring it up again!
Ruan Nanxing quickly ate half of the roast goose and felt it was a bit dry, so he poured a glass of wine and finished it in one gulp.
Suddenly, a burning sensation spread from his chest to his throat. Ruan Nanxing couldn't help but cover his mouth, feeling like he was going to breathe fire.
After a while, she suppressed the overwhelming feeling and complained with a frown: "This is too spicy."
Gu Jiuzhou shook his head and said, "Cow chews peony." Then he took another slow sip.
Ruan Nanxing didn't bother to reply, and asked the waiter to bring her a pot of water. She drank two glasses of water before she felt better. She spit out the smell of alcohol and said with lingering fear: "I will never drink again in the future, it will kill me."
Gu Jiuzhou said it was fair, "The special brew here tastes good." Although the taste is not delicate enough, the taste is very unique and impressive.
Ruan Nanxing snorted, thinking that no matter how much a man looked like an immortal, he would turn into a ghost when he encountered alcohol. She didn't want to talk to him and focused on eating meat. Unknowingly, she had swept away all the meat on the table. Gu Jiuzhou only
Although he had a taste, he drank not a drop of the bottle of wine.
After paying the bill and walking out of the store for a short distance, Ruan Nanxing suddenly stopped, holding his hands on his chest with a dazed look on his face.
Gu Jiuzhou's expression tightened and he asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable?" After a pause, he guessed: "But you ate too much?"
Ruan Nanxing slowly shook his head and said angrily: "I feel bad..."
"Heart?" Gu Jiuzhou was puzzled and frowned: "Is it an old illness?"
Ruan Nanxing continued to shake his head and said in a daze: "It's too expensive..."
Gu Jiuzhou was startled, "What?"
Ruan Nanxing blinked, his face changed, and he suddenly pursed his lips and sobbed: "This meal is too expensive! A whole hundred low-grade spiritual stones! Why doesn't it grab it! I will never come here again!"
Gu Jiuzhou laughed and looked at her misty and somewhat confused eyes. His heart moved and he asked, "Have you drunk too much?"
Ruan Nanxing didn't seem to hear, and murmured to himself: "It's better to eat and drink too much..."
Gu Jiuzhou felt a little funny and had a headache at the same time. It was already late at night and they hadn't even found a suitable place to stay. He suggested, "Let's talk while walking?"
Ruan Nanxing still didn't respond. She stood there muttering as if she had lost her soul. Gu Jiuzhou tried to persuade her several times. It wasn't until he said that he wanted to return the drink money to her that she slowly turned to look at him.
Gu Jiuzhou: "..."
He suspected that Ruan Nanxing's series of actions just now were all fake, and the purpose was to get back the pot of wine money.
