Chapter 49: Chapter 49 Cultivator’s Banquet

Su Qingyan was somewhat puzzled, "Can’t control yourself? What do you mean?"

Chen Fan leaned close to Su Qingyan’s ear and whispered a few sentences.

Su Qingyan’s face turned red all the way to her neck in an instant. Then she looked at Chen Fan with an irritated glare and punched him, "Pervert! Get out of my car!"

Chen Fan looked serious, "I’m telling the truth, Qingyan, you have to believe me, and we must..."

"Get out——" Su Qingyan didn’t want to hear Chen Fan’s explanation and pushed him out of the car.

After shutting the car door, Su Qingyan felt a wave of heat wash over her.

"I’m so angry, I thought he didn’t want to hold hands because he wasn’t ready, but it turns out what he was thinking about was sleeping with me, and that lame excuse he had, treating me like a three-year-old kid, hmph!"

She glanced at Chen Fan outside the car and, with a press of the accelerator, she left the place.

Chen Fan watched Su Qingyan’s car drive away and sighed helplessly, "Oh well, there’s still more than a month, I’ll just have to think of a solution slowly."

...

The next evening.

Chen Fan arrived early at Qingyan Pharmaceuticals to pick up Su Qingyan.

Su Qingyan walked out of the company building and immediately put on a stern face upon seeing Chen Fan.

Chen Fan approached her, "Are you still angry about last night?"

Su Qingyan huffed coldly, "You still have the nerve to bring it up!"

Chen Fan said with a smile, "Can’t I make an apology? Actually, I was telling the truth. Any man would probably find it hard to control themselves with a beautiful, gentle, and generous girl like you. I was just so obsessed with your beauty that I got confused and said those things."

After returning home last night, he had called Lu Jinyuan, a master of romance, to ask how to appease a girl who was angry.

Lu Jinyuan had only taught Chen Fan one method, which was to flatter relentlessly, to praise to the skies.

People are vain. Even those with the strongest personalities will show a friendly side when they hear others praising them.

Especially when the praise comes from someone they care about.

Did Su Qingyan care about Chen Fan? Chen Fan wasn’t sure, but he could sense the change in her attitude towards him over this past month.

So, as soon as they met today, Chen Fan recited the lines he had found online to Su Qingyan.

"Hypocritical." Su Qingyan rolled her eyes at Chen Fan, but her demeanor had obviously softened.

Seeing that this method was indeed effective, Chen Fan continued to compliment her, "Such words might be false if said to others, but to you they are absolutely sincere. You are a celestial fairy among humans, and I speak from genuine feelings."

Su Qingyan couldn’t take it anymore and looked at Chen Fan both annoyed and amused, "Oh my, you are so cheesy. Now tell me, where are we going today?"

Seeing that Su Qingyan was no longer angry, Chen Fan quietly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mingfeng Tower."

Su Qingyan’s face showed a hint of surprise, "That’s pretty much the highest-end place in the whole of Jiang City. What kind of event is it this time?"

"Well, it’s like a cultivators’ banquet. All cultivators attending, organized by Wu Tiangang," Chen Fan replied.

Su Qingyan nodded, "Then let’s go."

Before long, the two arrived at Mingfeng Tower and ascended to the top floor.

This place offers the most beautiful night view of the entire Jiang City.

The scene was already lively with quite a few people having arrived, conversing in small groups—it was clear from their attire that the majority were cultivators.

Chen Fan walked with Su Qingyan to the food area.

"I’ve heard the food here has a unique charm that’s hard to find anywhere else, so let’s eat a bit more today," Chen Fan said with a smile.

Su Qingyan picked up a small piece of dessert. "The dishes I make are also quite unique, and they’re the only ones in the whole world. Why don’t you eat more of those?" she asked.

Chen Fan stiffened for a moment.

Just then, a server ran over and loudly announced, "Master Wu has been unexpectedly detained and may arrive a bit late, please everyone, go ahead and enjoy the food first!"

Su Qingyan curiously surveyed the attendees and, after a while, leaned closer to Chen Fan, "They all seem to be talking about some powerful Celestial Master. It sounds very impressive. Is today’s banquet in honor of this Celestial Master? Do you know who this Celestial Master is?"

Su Qingyan didn’t know who was behind the celestial phenomena at Yunwu Villas and assumed it was Wu Tiangang’s doing.

Chen Fan replied playfully, wanting to tease Su Qingyan a bit, "What do you think this Celestial Master is like?"

Su Qingyan thought for a moment, "He must be a white-haired, long-bearded old man in his seventies or eighties, right?"

Chen Fan couldn’t help but laugh, then nodded affirmatively, "Indeed, and I’ve heard that this old man likes to act inappropriately for his age, and he’s particularly fond of beautiful young women in their twenties. If he takes a fancy to a girl, he’ll cast a spell and spirit her soul away. You’re so beautiful, you better be careful later."

Su Qingyan’s face instantly filled with fear, but she quickly caught on and pinched Chen Fan hard, "You jerk, how dare you play a trick on me!"

Chen Fan winced in pain, his face puzzled, "How did you figure it out?"

Su Qingyan lifted her head proudly, glancing at Chen Fan, "If that Celestial Master really had such tastes, would you have brought me here?"

Chen Fan couldn’t help but feel delighted. It seemed that Su Qingyan really did understand him.

At that moment, Qi Rushan arrived with Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng curiously observed the guests and turned to ask, "Master Qi, these people all seem extraordinary, with an aura as powerful as yours. Are they all spell masters like you?"

Qi Rushan nodded, "The key figure today is the Celestial Master, and naturally, the ones who come to the banquet are not just ordinary people. Many of them are even more powerful than I am. But even with all the people here combined, they aren’t a match for a single finger of the Celestial Master."

Zhao Cheng’s face lit up with anticipation, "Master Qi, since you and Master Wu are old friends, please, when the time comes, help me put a good word in for me with the Celestial Master."

"Don’t worry," Qi Rushan answered indifferently.

Zhao Cheng was thrilled, thinking that once he gained the favor of the Celestial Master, he would surely be able to trample Chen Fan underfoot.

Just then, his gaze swept over to Chen Fan and Su Qingyan standing in the food area, and his expression instantaneously darkened, "Damn it! Why is he here too?"

Chen Fan also spotted Zhao Cheng, and after a moment of surprise, his expression turned playful.

Qi Rushan followed Zhao Cheng’s gaze, asking, "Who is that man?"

"That’s Chen Fan!" Zhao Cheng spoke through gritted teeth.

Qi Rushan’s face showed surprise. "He’s so young. Perhaps I’ve overestimated him?"

Zhao Cheng, with a murderous glint in his eye, made his way toward Chen Fan.

Qi Rushan quickly stopped him, "What are you doing? Even if I might have misjudged his abilities, the fact that he was able to neutralize my talisman means he’s definitely skilled, luck or not. You’d best not provoke him!"

Zhao Cheng refused to listen, "This is the Celestial Master’s domain; he wouldn’t dare to be reckless. That guy has caused me endless grief, leaving me unable to eat or sleep. Today, I must humiliate him to vent my frustrations!"
