Chapter 417 Be Careful When You See Me Again
Seeing that they were about to start cooking again, and that the food she had put into the hot pot was almost done, the bubbling broth and the enticing aroma were all reminders that the delicious meal was about to be served.
She didn't want to miss the best opportunity to enjoy the food because of their argument; if she waited another round, her stomach would start to protest even more.
Regardless of whether they want to hit or scold her, she just wants them to leave quickly and stop ruining her enjoyment of the food.
How could you talk like that? We're arguing because of you.
Sister, I'm willing to pay double the price, please let us have the private room.
"To prevent my senior brothers and sisters from fighting, you've done a good deed. Mianmian will definitely remember your kindness." Jiang Mianmian jumped out again, pretending to be kind and generous.
She wore a sweet smile and spoke in a gentle tone that seemed to drip with water. She not only gave Tian Zhenzhen seemingly generous benefits, but also showed her tolerance and kindness in front of her fellow disciples.
It must be said that her thinking was indeed quite ingenious, making it difficult for people to see through her true intentions at first glance.
"Even if you offer ten times the amount, it won't make a difference. If you waste your time arguing with me, you might even find a private room available next door."
"It's past lunchtime now, there are plenty of private rooms available, why waste my time here?" Tian Zhenzhen remained unmoved, responding calmly and rationally.
As luck would have it, just as she finished speaking, the guests in the next private room came out after finishing their meal, and the sound of the door opening seemed to be the best response to her words.
"I apologize for disturbing you." Yan Guhong spoke first, his voice still calm and gentle, with a hint of apology.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Tian Zhenzhen again, his gaze seemingly filled with a sense of inquiry and curiosity.
He then turned around and walked out of the private room with steady steps.
Hong Ling followed closely behind. With Senior Brother Yan present, she couldn't very well lay a hand on an ordinary person. However, as she left, she gave Tian Zhenzhen an unpleasant glance.
Afterwards, the group left the private room one after another, with Jiang Mianmian being the last to leave.
Before leaving, she even pretended to be kind and reminded Tian Zhenzhen: "Miss, my senior sister has a bit of a temper. If you meet her again next time, you must be careful, she might not be able to resist taking action."
"Also, you shouldn't have refused my suggestion just now, and you'd better not run into us again." After Jiang Mianmian finished speaking, she turned and walked away without waiting for Tian Zhenzhen's response. Her departing figure seemed to carry a chilling aura.
Tian Zhenzhen naturally understood the threat in her words.
Compared to her straightforward and hot-tempered senior, this seemingly weak, innocent, and harmless girl is more like a cold, venomous snake lurking in the shadows.
Just because Tian Zhenzhen rejected her good intentions, preventing her from showcasing her good image, she harbored ill will towards her.
Tian Zhenzhen found the threat incomprehensible and felt no fear whatsoever.
She wondered to herself what would happen when they met again; who knew? But she was sure she wouldn't be the one to suffer then.
Tian Zhenzhen completely forgot about those annoying little episodes and immersed herself in the delicious feast in front of her.
The hot pot is filled with a rich and flavorful broth, and various ingredients are tossed and turned in it, absorbing the savory, spicy, and numbing flavors of the broth.
She carefully prepared the dipping sauce, enjoying every bite to her heart's content.
After the meal, she felt full and satisfied, her body filled with delicious food, and her mood became exceptionally pleasant.
After finishing her meal, Tian Zhenzhen got up and went to the restroom.
She was still thinking about those people from before, and if they were still there when she came out, she might be able to watch another good show.
But when she paid the bill and left, she didn't see those people coming out to cause trouble, and she couldn't help but think to herself, "I'm really lucky."
While Tian Zhenzhen was in the restroom, Jiang Mianmian suddenly stood up and made a move to walk out.
"Junior Sister Jiang, where are you going?" Yan Guhong's steady voice suddenly rang out, interrupting her actions.
Jiang Mianmian paused, secretly annoyed. She hadn't expected Yan Guhong to suddenly ask such a question.
After a brief moment of panic, she quickly calmed down, put on a sweet smile, and casually made up an excuse, saying, "It's nothing, I'm just getting up to get a drink."
As soon as she finished speaking, she walked over to the drinks area, grabbed a can, and returned to her seat as if nothing had happened.
She knew very well that it would be a loss if she upset Senior Brother Yan because of an unrelated ordinary person.
Within the sect, Jiang Mianmian was extremely popular, and many of her fellow disciples took great care of her.
She has a sweet and lovely appearance and a gentle and kind personality, which makes it easy for her to win the favor of others.
But Yan Guhong was the only one whose attitude towards her remained lukewarm.
No matter what methods she used, the tricks that worked on others were like stones sinking into the sea, failing to stir up even the slightest ripple when they came to Yan Guhong.
Jiang Mianmian didn't really like Yan Guhong that much.
As the sect leader's most valued disciple, Yan Guhong possesses unparalleled martial arts talent among the younger generation. Moreover, he comes from the renowned Yan family, a family of martial arts masters, and is surrounded by countless accolades.
Jiang Mianmian felt more resentful. She had a high opinion of herself and had always been used to being the center of attention, enjoying the adulation and flattery of others.
In her heart, she only ever loved herself. Everything she did was to satisfy her vanity and desire for control.
Jiang Mianmian thought she had spared Tian Zhenzhen this time out of respect for Yan Guhong, but little did she know that she was the truly lucky one.
She had no idea of Tian Zhenzhen's true strength, and if a conflict were to break out, the consequences would be something she didn't want to see.
“The Taichu Temple’s actions have attracted attention from all sides. The journey ahead may not be peaceful, so you all need to be careful,” the middle-aged man, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.
He was the leader of this operation and also a senior disciple of the Heart Sword Sect.
Their purpose in going out this time was to find the valuable items in Jingyun Temple.
"Yes, Uncle-Master." The four responded in unison, eagerly anticipating the trip.
