Food Fairy Lord

Chapter 510 New Issue
The fish was quickly caught.

Pei Ye and Xu Chuo stopped talking at the same time and looked down.

The little mermaid held the fish's gills with one hand and raised her sharp nails with the other hand. With a light stroke, she cut off two pieces of tender white meat from the fish's belly and put them into her mouth.

They were clearly eating raw food, but their eating style was more elegant than most people. Pei Ye could almost imagine them sitting on a deserted reef under the moon, with their tails hanging in the water, leisurely tasting the freshly caught seafood. Those rare fish that were rarely seen on weekdays were just the breakfast, lunch and dinner randomly arranged in their eyes.

The two of them watched this new scene with great interest. Pei Ye suddenly asked, "Should we give her a name? I don't even know what to call her."

"Okay." Xu Chuo drank a sip of hot tea and said, "It's fine as long as you can answer my call."

Ever since he named his residence in the Sword Training Academy, Pei Ye had discovered some of the fun in this matter. Now that he had the chance, he narrowed his eyes and said reservedly, "I haven't thought about it yet."

"Then I'll give it a name, 'Xiao Yu'."

"."

"Ok?"

Pei Ye restrained his expression and said, "Xiaoyu is too perfunctory. Is there no other fish in the world? What's wrong, little cat?"

The black cat looked away as if nothing had happened, not wanting to remind him of his attention.

At this moment Xu Chuo suddenly looked down and saw that the little mermaid who was eating raised its head again, looked at her and called out a few times in a childish voice.

"What's wrong? Is she not satisfied too?"

Xu Chuo was also a little stunned: "She said her name is Xiye."

"How did you hear that?!"

Xu Chuo was silent for a moment, raised his cup and drank a sip of hot tea without answering.

There was silence in the room for a moment. Pei Ye watched the little mermaid continue to eat gracefully. Suddenly, he seized the opportunity to snatch a piece of fish meat from her. He picked it up with his fingers and fed it to his kitten in front of her astonished eyes.

The two of them reviewed these things together again, and by the end they were both feeling more relaxed, so Xu Chuo invited him to have lunch.

Pei Ye discovered that the woman's menu was also very light. The extra sea bass was shredded and placed aside, with sweet salt and sauce, becoming the only meat dish on the table.

The rest were some vegetables and pastries. The two ladies closed the doors and windows, and Xu Chuo also changed out of his cotton cloak, revealing a light goose yellow undergarment. The way he held the chopsticks gracefully was like a white crane, and with his other hand he was flipping through a small book whose name he did not know.

Pei Ye was sometimes curious about her identity. He wondered how she had developed such a temperament that was "unique and outstanding among the crowd". He suspected that besides being "the daughter of the former prime minister", she had other unknown titles.

He had never dined at the same table with such people before, and didn't know what etiquette was. He just sat up straighter and started eating much more slowly.

"You said you wanted someone to take me to the Fantasy Tower. I wonder when that will be?"

"The Fantasy Tower is not open every day, nor is it open on a certain day. You will see the specific date later." Xu Chuo ate a piece of melon. "You will have a class in the Imperial College in the afternoon. Chang Sun Jue will introduce you then."

".Oh." Pei Ye originally didn't want to go.

"Then you can take a break. We'll talk again after we go to the Huan Tower." Xu Chuo turned a page.

"it is good."

The two of them ate in silence for a while, and Pei Ye suddenly raised his head: "That's right."

"Ok?"

"What about your story?"

Xu Chuo raised his eyes and was slightly startled.

"You said in the September court bulletin that you would stop writing this month and there would be no updates. You would write another chapter in the October national newspaper." Pei Ye looked at her, "It's already November, you didn't write it, did you?" "..." Xu Chuo smiled and lowered his head, "It was already published on October 20th. I'll send you a copy later."

"What about November's?"

Xu Chuo raised the booklet in his hand helplessly: "Isn't this being revised?"

Pei Ye's eyes lit up and he rubbed his hands: "Can you let me take a look at this first?"

"No."

"." Pei Ye curled his lips and looked away reluctantly, but he was comforted by the thought that he still had ten months to see it.

But at this moment Xu Chuo suddenly looked at him with his chin propped up, not saying a word.

"what happened?"

"You..." She seemed to hesitate a little, but still asked, "Do you want to write with me?"

".What?" Pei Ye seemed not to hear clearly.

The woman raised her hand and shook the small book in her hand: "This story has just begun and everyone knows it. We can write the rest together."

Her eyes were as quiet and clear as autumn water. Most of the time, this woman was calm and a little lazy. Only when they first met, when they drank that night, and now, did she have such a close-knit look in her eyes.

"I, can I?" Pei Ye had never thought of this before. He widened his eyes and did not bother to expose his shortcomings. "I actually don't know many characters."

"It's always easy to choose words and sentences, and it's never a big deal." Xu Chuo smiled, "Then it's settled. This time it will also be published on the 20th of this month. When you come back from Huanlou, we will start finalizing the manuscript."

Pei Ye was still chewing something in his mouth, his eyes were bright and he nodded repeatedly.

"This story should be shorter, only about seven or eight chapters." Xu Chuo held the chopsticks between three fingers and poked them into the plate in a rare and impolite manner, looking into the air and thinking, "But I hope to write it more seriously."

"What's it called?" Even though he could get it in a while, Pei Ye was already impatient.

Xu Chuo's eyes narrowed and focused, and he said, "The Swing Rope."

“What a story.”

Xu Chuo smiled again: "It's a love affair."

Pei Ye was a little disappointed, but it did not dampen his interest. He rested his chin on his hand, rolled his eyes, and did not eat for a while.

Xu Chuo finally picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of sea bass. The young man, who was still thinking about how to show off his literary talent, once again showed his enthusiasm for sashimi: "You have no cultivation, be careful not to get diarrhea if you eat it."

"."

"."

Xu Chuo paused with the chopsticks she had raised in the air, looking at him expressionlessly, as if she was in a dilemma.

In the end, she didn't respond to the topic and put it into her mouth gracefully.

The meal was finished in silence. Xu Chuo asked the maid to get an October issue of the Imperial News for the young man. The mermaid Xiye stayed here temporarily and let Pei Ye drive the carriage to the Imperial College by himself.

However, after carrying the sword and the cat, the young man still stood there, looking at the woman hesitantly, as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

Xu Chuo couldn't help but hold his brows: "I know, I have never been afraid of cold since I was a child, so I have never suffered from any disease."

"No, that..." Pei Ye paused, "Where's the wine?"
