This is my first time playing the female lead, what's wrong with the tea and snacks?

Seeing that he was only wearing a thin white dress with a coat over it, Ye Xuan felt a pang of heartache and said:

"Qingyi, are you really alright?"

Su Yu shook her head, gesturing for him to follow her.

"Let me help you." Ye Xuan immediately stepped forward to support Su Yu, placing his hand on her shoulder.

Su Yu was slightly taken aback, then looked at him with a half-smile, "My senior sister said before that she wouldn't let you take advantage of her, but now you can't help but make a move?"

Ye Xuan blushed and immediately let go. "I was just worried about you. Since you don't want to, Qingyi, I certainly won't do it."

"What happened after I fell unconscious in Thundercloud Valley?"

"It's nothing. I carried you away from Thundercloud Valley after you fell unconscious."

"But I heard you went to the Enforcement Hall jail for this?" Su Yu hesitated for a moment. "They didn't do anything to you, did they?"

Ye Xuan patted his chest and puffed out his chest. "Of course I'm fine, I was just locked up for a few days and then released."

"Has your Battle Celestial Body been exposed yet?"

"No, they just think I've awakened a general divine body. The secret of the Battle Celestial Body is known only to you."

At this point, Ye Xuan felt guilty.

"Qingyi, the public opinion after this incident may cause you inconvenience, but I will come forward to clarify when the time is right."

"Don't worry, I won't let your reputation be tarnished."

Su Yu denied it, saying it didn't matter, "It's nothing, it's just public opinion, there's no need to pay attention to it."

With that, he led Ye Xuan to the hall.

After giving Ye Xuan a few instructions, telling him to stay put, Su Yu went to prepare tea.

This is certainly not ordinary tea; it contains rare and precious ingredients.

Su Yu had wanted to invest before, but he fainted at that time, so he didn't get a single penny.

He has to make a move now, no matter what, otherwise he'd feel guilty for risking his life to save her.

This is also why he insisted on spending time with Ye Xuan.

He has to succeed today, no matter what! Otherwise, none of us will be able to play anymore.

Su Yu took out the Spirit Pear Moon Fruit and condensed it directly into the fruit.

He even felt it wasn't enough, so he refined all the remaining rare and precious materials in his spatial ring into it.

Su Yu looked at the fragrant tea set in her hand and was very satisfied with her masterpiece.

"That's right. As long as Ye Xuan drinks it, I'm sure I can break through to the King Realm based on the return on this investment."

After finishing, Su Yu poured herself another half glass.

He carried two teacups back to the hall.

Su Yu placed the tea set filled with rare and precious ingredients in front of Ye Xuan's tea table.

She lifted her skirt and took a seat opposite her.

"What is this?..." Ye Xuan looked at the tea set in front of him and silently swallowed.

This color looks like something no human should drink...

The intense spiritual energy fluctuations, mixed with multiple attributes, would be too much for an average person to handle.

"This is tea I brewed for you, please drink it," Su Yu said with a gentle smile.

"Gulp~ Qingyi, can, can I not drink this?" A stiff look flashed across Ye Xuan's face.

Su Yu asked in confusion, "Is it because you don't like the taste?"

"Don't misunderstand, I usually brew my own tea to serve guests when they come over, that's how it is."

So in your eyes I'm just an ordinary guest, right? ... Ye Xuan felt a pang of sadness.

He originally thought that Qingyi was a unique gift carefully prepared for him.

He really hoped that he could hold a special place in Mu Qingyi's heart.

But he dared not say it aloud, because he had never given anything to Qingyi so far.

He is not qualified yet.

Ye Xuan kept his head down, silently holding the tea set in his hands, without saying a word.

Sitting opposite Ye Xuan, Su Yu was completely bewildered by his dejected mood.

What's going on? What's wrong with him?

Something's not right, it was fine just now....

Wait, is it because I hurt his feelings with what I just said? Does he think he's nothing special to me?

"......"

Gan!

He originally said that because he was afraid Ye Xuan would overthink things, but it turned out that Ye Xuan really did overthink things.

"......"

"Ahem..." Su Yu coughed lightly, then a warm smile appeared on her face.

"Ye Xuan, actually, I don't usually have many guests in my side hall. You are the first one."

Ye Xuan looked up. "Qingyi, is this true?"

"Of course it's true, would I lie to you?"

Ye Xuan thought about it and realized it made sense. After all, Qingyi was known for her aloofness, and it would be difficult for ordinary disciples to even get close to her.

His mood instantly brightened.

He picked up the tea set on the tea table, took a sip, and swallowed one-seventh of it.

"......"

It tastes pretty bad.

But... he felt sweet inside!

Su Yu saw that coaxing had worked.

"Qingyi, you sent your senior brothers away to be alone with me, is there something you want to discuss?"

Ye Xuan asked Su Yu curiously. Despite the pressure of sending his fellow disciples away, he believed that Qingyi must have something to discuss with him.

"this......"

Now it was Su Yu's turn to be in a dilemma.

He said he just wanted to invite him for a cup of tea. Can he believe him?

"I'm just a little curious about your Battle Celestial Body. I'd like to see it after I finish this cup of tea, is that alright?"

"Witness my Battle Celestial Body? Of course, no problem." Ye Xuan said generously. Qingyi knew his secret, so it wouldn't hurt to let her experience it.

"But Qingyi, you're still injured, so why don't we talk about this later?"

"It's alright, let's do it this time."

"Alright." Seeing that Su Yu insisted, Ye Xuan couldn't refuse, so he could only try to control himself during the presentation.

"correct."

Seemingly remembering something, Ye Xuan took out a sword box from his spatial ring and handed it to Su Yu's tea table.

"what is this?"

"This is a gift for you. Your Azure Water Sword broke back in Thundercloud Valley, didn't it? I got you a new one."

"Look, do you like it?"

Su Yu glanced at Ye Xuan with some surprise, not expecting that this guy would have such a delicate mind.

His Azure Water Sword had only been broken for three days.

He didn't mince words and opened the sword case directly.

On a piece of brocade made of a special material, there was a three-foot-long, silver-white sword.

Its blade is engraved with exquisite patterns, and its shape resembles a white crane spreading its wings. The entire sword is light and sharp, and its design is that of a woman's sword.

The fluctuations emanating from the sword indicate it's a sixth-tier spiritual weapon!

"White Crane?" Su Yu gently stroked the sword's blade; it was sharp and smooth.

The words "White Crane" are engraved at the lower end of the sword hilt.

He never expected that Ye Xuan, with his current strength, would actually provide him with a peak sixth-tier spiritual weapon.

"This... Ye Xuan, isn't this gift far too expensive?"

Ye Xuan looked at Su Yu gently, the tenderness in his golden pupils seeming capable of melting glaciers. "Qingyi, compared to your selfless help, what is this sixth-tier spiritual weapon?"

"I promise you, when I become a great power in the world, I will let you wield the most powerful and exquisite divine weapon in the world. This is my promise to you."

Seeing the boy's confident demeanor, radiant spirit, and high morale, Su Yu felt a slight sense of awe.

I go.

No wonder most women like sweet talk and romantic words; Su Yu was almost smitten.

Moreover, there is a very high chance that Ye Xuan's words will come true!

"System, if I accept this sword, will it offset the resources I've invested?"

No, because any losses incurred by the host during the investment process are causally related to the investment target, such gifts from the investment target will not have an offsetting effect.

"That's good."

Relieved to receive the reply, Su Yu had no reason to refuse since it was a gift, especially since Ye Xuan had wronged him.

He accepted it without feeling any discomfort.

So he readily agreed.

"Then I'll accept this gift."

"I'm glad you like it." Ye Xuan was secretly delighted.

He thought Qingyi would refuse, so he would pester her relentlessly, but he didn't expect her to agree so easily.
