Chapter 107: Cold
The next day.
Jiang Huai got up early to prepare breakfast, but Luo Qingyu clung to him for a long kiss before letting him go. After Jiang Huai dressed, he patted Luo Qingyu, who was still lying on the bed, and she pouted in response.
For breakfast, Jiang Huai decided to make sticky rice balls. Once ready, the entire courtyard was filled with a light rice fragrance. He went to Bai Li’s room, where she obediently got up. Bai Li had stripped clean the night before, and she began to dress in her underwear in front of Jiang Huai. Then, turning her back to him, she glanced over her shoulder.
“Buttons.”
Jiang Huai reached out to fasten them for her.
Bai Li donned her black cheongsam and then joined Jiang Huai in the courtyard. He had intentionally made a lot more because Bai Li had a big appetite. Many of the sticky rice cakes ended up in Bai Li’s stomach. After a full meal, Jiang Huai looked at everyone and, having nothing else to do, simply called Luo Qingyu and Bai Li to join him for a stroll at the Qingxuan Sect.
Bai Li had never been to a human cultivator’s sect before, so she was quite curious about everything. She stayed close to Jiang Huai, with Luo Qingyu’s hand occasionally fluttering by his side, which he gently caught, causing the girl’s lips to curve into a smile.
Today, she wore a gorgeous purple palace dress with an intricate hairstyle and beautiful hairpins. The accessories on her dress were luxurious, dazzling countless sect disciples.
Compared to her lavish dress, Bai Li’s attire was much simpler. The cheongsam on her looked cute. Her eyes were filled with curiosity about everything, having never been here before. However, her gaze was somewhat shy, so she stayed closer to Jiang Huai.
When she first entered the Eastern Region, it was the same. Everywhere were human beings, and she was a stranger, always full of unease. She had encountered many cultivators who wanted to subdue her, so she was always hiding. She didn’t have much affection for human cultivators, feeling at ease only when she was with Jiang Huai.
Jiang Huai spent the day with the two of them, and when they returned to the courtyard, he started preparing dinner. Luo Qingyu came into the kitchen to help, while Bai Li, unsure of what to do, sat in the courtyard, resting her chin on her hands, staring at the white birds in the trees and daydreaming.
