Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There were many noodle shops on the street, and Jiang Hao felt it was worth a try.

But which one to choose?

He passed by the nearest one and found that it was doing exceptionally well.

There was a queue to get a meal.

Jiang Hao didn’t prefer such a bustling place.

It was noisy and could easily irritate Hong Yuye.

If he were alone, he wouldn’t mind.

If someone accidentally offended her, there would be a disaster.

These people had faced enough hardships in their lives. There was no need to put them in danger.

He continued walking forward and saw a roast chicken place, which was also crowded.

As he walked on, many shops were full of people, with only a few tables available.

However, as they progressed down the street, the number of people lessened.

Jiang Hao walked all the way forward and didn’t find a shop he liked until he saw a small noodle shop in the corner.

It was small and fairly empty. No one cared about it.

Even if people passed by, they wouldn’t give it a second glance.

It was not normal.

When things deviated from the norm, something usual was definitely bound to happen.

Just as Jiang Hao was about to leave, Hong Yuye walked inside.

He was surprised. “Senior?”

“What’s wrong?” Hong Yuye turned to look at Jiang Hao.

“This shop… is just ordinary,” Jiang Hao said.

“You never know until you try,” she said and walked inside.

Jiang Hao sighed and could only follow her inside.

He was even more certain that this shop was not ordinary. Hong Yuye had gone in willingly.

“When will your boss come out?” Bi Zhu looked at the waitress.

“I don’t know. The boss said she’ll come out whenever she’s not busy.”

She had a ponytail and stood politely on the side and waited for customers to come in.

“Why is your boss so busy when there are so few customers here?” Bi Zhu

“I don’t know. She says she’s busy every day.”

Bi Zhu didn’t know whether her luck was good or bad now.

She was thinking about how to break her good luck.

At that moment, footsteps approached, and two people entered. A man and a woman.

The woman looked ordinary and was at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Her steps were firm.

Behind her was an ordinary man at the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm.

However, when the man saw her, he seemed surprised.

‘Does he recognize me?’

Bi Zhu was also surprised.

He composed himself and looked indifferent.

She wondered if it had just been her imagination.

‘I don’t know them, but… maybe they know me.’ Bi Zhu thought.

Who could it be?

‘There shouldn’t be anyone in the West who recognizes me.’

She wanted to ask for the person’s name.

Qiao Yi noticed the two people. They seemed strange. ‘Are they like the seniors from before?’

She was on high alert.

Bi Zhu, on the other hand, was quite calm. But she found it a bit difficult to maintain her composure because the waitress suddenly looked at the kitchen. Bi Zhu was puzzled. A woman dressed as a chef came out of the kitchen.

She looked quite ordinary.

“Boss?” the waitress said.

Bi Zhu was surprised. She stood up. The “boss” had suddenly appeared.

Even more surprising was that the boss didn’t even look in their direction. She walked straight to the two customers who had just sat down. “What would you like to eat?” she asked politely.

Bi Zhu was shocked.

‘Who are these people? Why did the boss personally come to welcome them?’ She didn’t care before, but now it seemed like these two were extraordinary.

She just didn’t know why.

Qiao Yi wasn’t surprised. She realized that if someone had a lower cultivation realm, they were bound to be someone important.

Jiang Hao was shocked. ‘Why is Bi Zhu here?’

He then remembered what Senior Dan Yuan had said. He had mentioned a noodle shop to ask about her condition.

It had been several months. She was bound to be here.

He had only thought about it briefly. Who would have known they would meet here?

Moreover, the chef seemed to be the boss here.

Seeing Bi Zhu’s reaction, Jiang Hao understood that it was strange for the chef to receive customers.

Was it because of Hong Yuye?

“Two bowls of beef noodles,” Jiang Hao said.

The chef nodded. “May I ask what kind of beef you would prefer? We have regular beef, spirit beast mountain beef, and ancient azure sea beef.”

“Regular is fine, ” Jiang Hao said.

He felt that the owner of the shop was also a bit strange, so he didn’t want to hold her here for long.

He wanted to leave as soon as he finished eating.

“Alright. Please wait a while,”                said with a nod.

The waitress poured tea for them while they waited.

Bi Zhu also walked to them. “Seniors, do you know the chef of this shop personally?”

Jiang Hao shook his head and remained silent.

He didn’t know what to say.

It was better to keep quiet.

Bi Zhu didn’t dare to say much either.

She could only return to her seat and wait quietly.

This was the strangest thing that had happened here.

She didn’t know why this was happening.

She turned to the waitress. The waitress looked at her and shook her head.

After a short while, two bowls of beef noodles were served.

Meat fillings filled the bowls more than the noodles.

Bi Zhu felt that the chef was being too extravagant, but she didn’t point it out.

She wanted to see what the chef would say.

Jiang Hao looked at the noodles in front of him and felt something strange.

Beef noodles should be ordinary, but… there was something about the aroma.

He took a bite. It was the most delicious thing he had ever eaten.

Hong Yuye only took a few bites and stopped eating.

“Is it not to your taste?” the chef asked softly.

She had been standing there the whole time.

Hong Yuye didn’t respond. She just turned and looked at the chef.

Jiang Hao finished eating.

“How much should we pay for this?”

He wanted to pay and leave as soon as possible.

“Our shop has an interesting policy. Anyone who comes here for the first time gets their meal for free. You don’t need to pay, but I would be grateful if you could mention your names,” said the chef.

“Name?” Jiang Hao said calmly.

He didn’t know the chef’s intention.

It was not a big deal to introduce oneself by name, but it was strange when someone asked for it outright.

Hong Yuye remained calm.

Jiang Hao looked at the chef. “Can’t I just choose to pay with spirit stones?” He didn’t want to use Smiling San Sheng’s name since Bi Zhu was here.

He didn’t want to use Gu Jin’s either. He felt that this chef was not ordinary. The chef looked at Jiang Hao and said softly, “Senior, since you’ve already returned, why hide?”

Jiang Hao was confused.. What did that mean?
