Rebirth: A Super Foodie and Her Cat Demon Husband

Liu Yuanyuan's brows furrowed instantly. She looked up at Tang Ziji and asked, "You've been here for a while, and you're just going to watch me stand on the side of the road with my eyes closed?"

Tang Ziji raised his eyebrows and shook his head. "I wasn't just watching. I haven't been here long. From the moment I saw you, I could see the Qi around your body was constantly flowing, and a very pure Qi without any attributes was constantly flowing into your body. That's why I said you were fighting against time to stand here and practice."

After hearing what Tang Ziji said, Liu Yuanyuan didn't explain. She reached out to open the car door, sat directly in the passenger seat, and raised the lowered window. Then she turned around and looked at Tang Ziji seriously and said, "Do you remember that among the books that Grandma Zhao gave you, there was a very worn and ancient manuscript with a magic formula in it. You said it was used to directly absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Do you remember?"

Tang Ziji nodded, and then he realized the key to Liu Yuanyuan's question: "You were practicing that spell just now."

His tone was unusually certain.

Liu Yuanyuan didn't hide anything and nodded, "Yes, I was practicing that spell just now. This is not the first time I've practiced it. Remember that bungalow? That was the first time I practiced that spell."

Because I think, for others, this technique is used to absorb spiritual energy and convert it into one's own Qi. But I am different from others. I should be considered to absorb energy and then convert the absorbed energy into Qi. I have an additional step of transforming my own energy.

So I thought, the sunlight in the sky is also a kind of energy, so can I directly use this spell to absorb the energy of the sun? So I tried it, and unexpectedly it actually worked.

But the feeling of this energy-converted Qi is completely different from the Qi I get from food. It seems purer, more concentrated, and even warmer."

Tang Ziji had been listening quietly. He nodded after Liu Yuanyuan finished speaking and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that the old lady really left those books for you, because after flipping through them, I found that most of the spells and cultivation methods in them are not suitable for me.

It could even be said that they're not suitable for most people, as they're all very ancient cultivation methods. But you're a different being. Perhaps all the ancient cultivation methods in the world today are applicable to you.

If you want to learn, I will teach you everything."

Liu Yuanyuan shook her head and sighed, "If I learn all this, I'm afraid it will take up too much of my time. Most importantly, I don't know what the point of learning all this is. Maybe you're trying to find the truth, or achieve some purpose or result."

But I've always been a passive learner. I've always been pushed into these things by the things around me. This makes me very confused. And even if I agree to join your department now, I'm more concerned about helping you. And the thought in my heart has never changed: I just want to open my own small studio to support my family of three.

Tang Ziji did not deny Liu Yuanyuan's statement, but nodded and said with a smile: "I understand, so thank you. But you can think about it from another perspective. You learn all these things to protect the people you care about most. So when it comes to protecting people, you don't have to worry about learning too much, or learning difficult or deep things.

After all, you don't know how powerful the dark forces behind the scenes are. Learning more is not only a safeguard for yourself, but also for the people you care about. Don't you agree?

Liu Yuanyuan didn't answer immediately. She lowered her head, as if she was thinking about something. Finally, she raised her head and smiled at Tang Ziji: "You are right. These thoughts of mine may just be confusion about my future. From now on, I will rely on you, Teacher Tang."

The two were chatting and laughing in the car when Liu Yuanyuan turned to look at the entrance to her living area and saw her mother walking ahead, briskly in the cold wind. Her father followed behind with a helpless look on his face. It seemed that he hadn't persuaded her mother well enough.

Mother Liu stood by the road and looked around, searching for something. Finally, she raised her hand to check the watch on her wrist, began rummaging through her small bag, and quickly took out her cell phone.

Liu Yuanyuan felt a sudden pang of sadness as she watched her mother standing in the cold wind. She was wearing a long, medium-length, reddish-brown jacket, made of cotton. The style was a bit worn, but the wrinkles at the cuffs showed that she had carefully ironed it before tucking it in. But after all, the color would fade with time. When she picked up the phone, the silver bracelet she usually wore dangled from her wrist, something she rarely wore.

This was bought by her father a few years ago. The expensive part was to make up for the hardware he owed her when they first got married.

Dad wanted to buy her a gold bracelet, but Mom thought it was a waste of money and reluctantly agreed to let Dad buy this silver bracelet.

On her chest was a cheetah-shaped brooch that looked like it was inlaid with many gems.

But she knew it wasn't worth much, because she had given it to her mother as a birthday gift for just a few dozen dollars two years ago. It wasn't actually a real gem, it just looked delicate and pretty.

The dark grey and light grey plaid woolen trousers had the same pattern as her father's woolen suit following behind her.

Because their clothes were indeed made from the same piece of cloth. After Dad finished making this suit, Mom used the remaining fabric to make this pair of pants.

Dad's suit and Mom's pants are reserved for showing off when they go out to visit people during the Chinese New Year.

It was a piece of clothing from years ago. She remembered that when she was little, her mother's factory was doing well, and at the end of the year, she received a generous year-end bonus. Her mother wanted to buy new clothes for the whole family.

But after going to the mall, they found that they could not afford the suits in the big shopping malls, so they had to go to Dapeng Street and use the bonus to buy woolen fabric to find those old tailors to make them. In any case, the suits were much cheaper than those in the mall.

That year, his mother bought him just one set of branded children's clothing at the mall. It was the first time he'd worn branded clothes worth hundreds of dollars. Unfortunately, during Chinese New Year, he got a hole in it from setting off firecrackers. After that, his mother put it away in her closet and never wore it again.

This outfit of Mom's was the best he could muster. I knew that if Mom really wore this, the Tang family manor would probably be the laughing stock of everyone in their circle.

He may not care about his own image and reputation, but he cannot ignore his parents.
