Collect the rags and I become a clairvoyant doctor

Chapter 2638 Jing Mo's Treat

Almost on the same day that Li Wei broke through his realm, Li Yan also successfully broke through from the early stage of the Divine Radiance Realm to the middle stage of the Divine Radiance Realm.

The whole process was completely unimpeded, as if it were a natural progression.

People like Liu Wen had already broken through to the mid-stage or even late-stage of the Divine Radiance Realm, so it's perfectly normal for Li Yan to have broken through to the mid-stage of the Divine Radiance Realm now.

In fact, he could have broken through long ago, but he had been suppressing his level of cultivation.

Now that Li Wei has caught up, he has no reason to continue suppressing himself.

"The smell of gunpowder is getting stronger!"

Sensing Li Yan's breakthrough in cultivation, Li Si's eyes narrowed slightly.

Everyone in the Li family knows that Li Wei and Li Yan are rivals.

If Li Wei's level of skill were to surpass Li Yan's, they could even launch an impeachment against Li Yan and remove him from his current position.

However, now that Li Yan has broken through to the mid-stage of the Divine Radiance Realm, the talk of impeachment is definitely nonsense.

……

"Qin Fei, come with me."

On the Divine Martial Sect's side, while Qin Fei was still cultivating in his room, Jing Mo suddenly came to the door and said something to him.

"Where to?" Qin Fei looked up and asked in confusion.

“Just follow me. What kind of man are you, being so indecisive?” Jing Mo said, frowning.

"Go, go, go."

Although Qin Fei didn't know what Jing Mo wanted to do, since she had asked him, she must have something she wanted to ask him.

With that in mind, Qin Fei decisively ended his cultivation and followed Jing Mo.

Led by Jing Mo, the two of them soon left the territory of the Divine Martial Sect.

After wandering around the city, Qin Fei was finally led by Jing Mo to the front of a small tavern.

The tavern was open, but business didn't seem to be very good; there were only a few people inside.

"what do you mean?"

"Did you bring me here for a drink?" Qin Fei couldn't help but ask upon seeing this.

"Stop talking nonsense, just follow me."

As they were talking, Jing Mo went into the tavern first, and Qin Fei followed immediately.

"Holy Maiden, it's been so long since you've visited. I thought you'd forgotten all about our tavern."

Just as the two of them went inside, the tavern owner immediately came out to greet them.

It's clear that Jing Mo is a regular at this place; otherwise, the shopkeeper wouldn't be so familiar with her.

"I've been very busy lately, and I didn't even know where you moved to. I only found out your location yesterday through someone else, so I came today," Jing Mo explained.

"What to drink?"

"The same old rules?" the shopkeeper asked.

"Let's do it the usual way. By the way, there are two of us today," Jing Mo said.

"Okay, I'll go prepare enough for two people right away."

The shopkeeper merely glanced at Qin Fei once more before immediately preparing the wine and dishes.

While Qin Fei's identity piqued his curiosity, there were some things he couldn't ask, so he knew he should play dumb when necessary.

"It seems you're a regular here," Qin Fei asked Jing Mo.

“Sometimes when I’m in a bad mood, I like to come here to sit for a while. It’s kind of my private space,” Jing Mo replied.

"A private space when you're in a bad mood?"

Upon hearing Jing Mo's explanation, Qin Fei's expression changed.

Since he said this is a place to come when he's in a bad mood, doesn't that mean he brought me here because he's in a bad mood too?

Thinking of this, Qin Fei subconsciously began to back down.

This woman is not someone to be trifled with; she's the type who'll fight anyone at the drop of a hat.

Now that he's brought himself here, and given his bad mood, does he think he'll get away with this?

Thinking about this, Qin Fei began to regret coming out with Jing Mo.

However, since he had already reached the early stage of the Divine Radiance Realm, even if he were to fight Jing Mo, Jing Mo would definitely have the absolute advantage. So even though he was a little apprehensive, Qin Fei finally stopped.

He wanted to see what Jing Mo was up to.

"Just tell me straight, why did you bring me here?" Qin Fei asked bluntly.

"It's nothing really, I just wanted to treat you to a drink," Jing Mo said casually, without directly answering Qin Fei's question.

"alright."

Since the other party was unwilling to talk, Qin Fei did not force himself to ask, because he knew that since Jing Mo had already brought him here, it meant that she would definitely tell him her purpose later.

In that case, he can just wait here patiently.

The tavern owner was slow in serving the wine and dishes; Qin Fei and his companion waited for nearly twenty minutes before he finally brought them up.

Qin Fei felt that the reason his restaurant wasn't doing well was probably because of the slow speed at which he served the food.

Whether in ancient or modern times, time is extremely precious to everyone. If it takes so long to serve a dish, no wonder people don't want to come here.

The dishes looked very ordinary, lacking both presentation and color, making them quite unappetizing.

However, Jingmo did not find the dishes offensive and immediately began to eat heartily.

Seeing how much she enjoyed eating, Qin Fei subconsciously picked up a little and put it in his own mouth.

The next second, a bitter taste exploded on his tongue; the dish was actually bitter.

"Boss, oh no, shopkeeper, why did you bring out all these bitter vegetables?" Qin Fei questioned the shopkeeper directly.

"Sir, this is a specialty of our shop, called bitter vegetable, which symbolizes remembering the bitter past and appreciating the sweet present," the shopkeeper explained to Qin Fei with a smile.

"No need to explain so much to him, just go and do your own thing," Jingmo said to the shopkeeper.

"Then you can take your time eating. Just call me if you need anything."

The shopkeeper nodded respectfully and then silently left.

After everyone left, Jing Mo said to Qin Fei, "Do you know why I like to come here to find some peace and quiet?"

Qin Fei didn't speak, but simply shook his head silently.

He knew that Jing Mo was very likely to take the initiative to explain to him, so all he needed to do at this moment was to listen quietly.

Qin Fei simply couldn't stomach the bitter taste, so he put down his chopsticks.

For Qin Fei, who was used to modern delicacies, these things were no different from eating coarse grains and wild vegetables. So since Jing Mo liked to eat them, let her eat them by herself!

"Before I was taken in by my master, I was an orphan without parents. In my childhood memories, the thing I ate most often was this bitter vegetable. Because it had no value and no one wanted it, it became my natural food to fill my stomach."

“For others, these things may be hard to swallow, or they may not even glance at them, but for me, they are full of memories, so I can find a rare tranquility here, as if I am my true self here.”

"And then?" Seeing the look of reminiscence on Jing Mo's face, Qin Fei followed up with a question.

“And you are the first person I brought here,” Jing Mo replied earnestly.

"So what exactly do you want to say to me?" Qin Fei continued to press.

This time, Jing Mo didn't answer immediately, but two blushes rose on her cheeks, making Qin Fei's breath catch in his throat.

What the hell is going on?
