Chapter 165: Chapter 165: Another Identity

"Hehe!"

Xiao Nihuang smiled happily, took the initiative to kiss Wu Xia, "Thank you!"

Wu Xia pursed his lips and didn’t say anything, just left with Xiao Nihuang.

The sky in the Capital City lights up earlier than in other places.

It was not yet six o’clock, but the sun was already hanging halfway up the mountain.

Although it was the scorching summer, the mornings in the north still carried a thick chill.

Wu Xia had always wanted to come to the Capital City since he was a child; even his university dream was to attend Kyoto University.

But his abilities were not enough to enter its gates.

Now, walking on this land, feeling the trees just starting to sprout green leaves, was like spring in the south.

"This is how the north is; the four seasons are not distinct!" Xiao Nihuang tenderly explained to Wu Xia.

At this moment, she didn’t resemble the War God at all, merely an adorable woman bringing her boyfriend back home from out of town.

"Let’s go, I’ll take you to eat some super delicious Zhajiangmian, I guarantee you’ll savor it endlessly!"

Wu Xia nodded and followed Xiao Nihuang into a red-flagged car parked at the roadside.

Wu Xia thought they were getting into a ride-hailing car, but after getting in, he realized something was off.

"Miss!"

The driver in front respectfully addressed Xiao Nihuang, his eyes couldn’t help but dart a glance at Wu Xia beside her.

Wu Xia’s face twitched; the driver did not address Xiao Nihuang as War God but as Miss, proving that it was someone from the Xiao Family who had sent the car.

This piqued Wu Xia’s curiosity even more about Xiao Nihuang’s other identity.

After all, since leaving Wujia Gully yesterday, Xiao Nihuang had been with him all the time and hadn’t contacted the outside world. How did her people know she was here?

But one must know, this is the Capital City, not Hai City, such a vast place, looking for a person here is like searching for a needle in a haystack.

Furthermore, on their way to the city yesterday, they were flying and teleporting the entire time, so it was impossible for any cameras to have captured them.

Xiao Nihuang smiled faintly, "I’ve been injected with a micro-locator so they can find me straight away, no matter where I am."

"Oh!" Wu Xia suddenly understood, recalling Xiao Nihuang’s earlier remarks about checking on the Inner Court, he suspected that her father might be an elder there or something similar.

The car drove towards the city center and stopped at an intersection within a village in the city.

Xiao Nihuang pulled Wu Xia out of the car and said to the driver, "No need to wait for me, I’ll walk back on my own after eating here!"

"Yes, Miss!" The driver took the command respectfully and drove away.

Wu Xia looked confused, as the surrounding environment was quite dilapidated, in stark contrast to the high-rise buildings nearby.

"Don’t judge it by its dirty and messy appearance, this place’s taste is the best old brand in the entire Capital City."

Xiao Nihuang said with conviction, "If you’re not a true native of the Capital City, you wouldn’t be able to find this place!"

"Yes!" Wu Xia nodded, "The truly delicious food is always hidden in alleyways; this is a truth."

"I just didn’t expect the mighty War God to enjoy eating at these roadside stalls!"

"Hehe!" Xiao Nihuang smiled slightly, tenderly linking arms with Wu Xia, "I’m back home now, so I’m not the War God anymore, just an ordinary person!"

Wu Xia, affected by Xiao Nihuang’s transformation, gently pinched her face, "Lead the way, I want to see how delicious it is!"

Xiao Nihuang wrapped her arm around Wu Xia, leading him into the alleyway.

The two of them really looked like a sweet couple at this moment, very much in love.

Especially since Xiao Nihuang had left her military jacket in the car and was just wearing a shirt and trousers, which made her look very ordinary, without a hint of arrogance, fitting in well with the surroundings.

Xiao Nihuang took Wu Xia to a breakfast shop, where the owner recognized Xiao Nihuang at a glance.

"Xiao, you haven’t come to eat for a long time. What will you have today?"

"Ah, is this your boyfriend? He’s really handsome!"

"Hehe!" Xiao Nihuang was very happy, "Mr. Zhou, two bowls of zhajiang noodles, a steamer of buns, and two cups of soy milk."

"Alrighty!" The old man happily responded, with a northern accent, and called out the order to the kitchen.

Then, in no time at all, he came out with a tray.

In addition to what Xiao Nihuang had ordered, there were also two servings of shredded radish and two servings of fruit pastries.

Although the shop’s environment was average, the dishes prepared looked very exquisite and appetizing.

The sauce for the zhajiang noodles, as well as the shredded green onions and cucumbers, were all served in separate small containers for customers to add according to their own taste.

Xiao Nihuang helped Wu Xia mix the noodles and said, "Try the buns; the taste here is exceptional. You’ve definitely never had anything like it!"

"Mhm!" Wu Xia gently nodded, picked up a bun and put it into his mouth. The soft dough brought a fragrance of flour as it touched his teeth, breaking like a baby’s skin upon the slightest touch.

The juice inside immediately burst out, with the rich flavor of the meat filling piercing through, mingling with the dough.

There was a tender yet chewy texture, like biting into a juicy piece of meat, and tapping into the real deal.

"Tastes good, doesn’t it?" Xiao Nihuang could tell from Wu Xia’s reaction that he was pleased, and she too wore a happy smile.

Wu Xia nodded excitedly and then tried the noodles, which were also excellent.

Xiao Nihuang recommended Wu Xia to pair the shredded radish with the noodles. After a bite, the sweet and sour radish combined with the zhajiang noodles elevated his taste buds to an utmost level, incredibly delicious.

"Haha!"

Xiao Nihuang laughed very happily, and her blissful demeanor made others around cast envious glances.

Just as the two were enjoying their meal, a figure approached them.

Wu Xia looked up in confusion, his pupils slightly constricting as he showed a surprised expression, "Juan!"

Chen Juan looked at Wu Xia with a mix of deep sorrow and icy coldness in her eyes, then glanced at Xiao Nihuang beside him.

At that moment, Xiao Nihuang, looking like someone toiling away, and her hair disheveled from last night’s lovemaking, obscured her face and charm.

Moreover, having just eaten zhajiang noodles, Xiao Nihuang had a mouthful of paste and really looked defeated.

And since this was an alleyway, who coming here to eat would be a wealthy person?

So, in Chen Juan’s eyes, Xiao Nihuang was just an ordinary person, as mundane as she was.

"Wu Xia, you went to great lengths to drive me away. I’m not clinging to you anymore, so what are you doing coming to me now?"

Chen Juan looked sorrowfully at Wu Xia, throwing a glance to the seemingly shabby Xiao Nihuang, "Are you trying to sicken me by bringing someone like this on purpose?"

"Can’t you stand to see me doing well? I’m not your enemy, am I?"

"Why do you keep provoking me over and over again?"

"Haven’t I told them to keep you from bothering me?"
