"Oh dear, where's our master? Why hasn't he returned with the food yet? Should we greet him first and tell him we've successfully entered, and even made it to the top floor of 'Hundred Flavors Pavilion'!" Mo Yuchen said, gently patting his head, a look of sudden realization on his face. At this moment, he felt dizzy from hunger, and his thinking became sluggish; he had only just remembered the existence of their master, Yun Che.

"That's right! Look at my brain, I almost forgot all about Master! I'll contact Master right away so he doesn't keep waiting for us downstairs." Song Shiyue echoed as if waking from a dream. He was obviously still immersed in the shock of being in the VIP room on the top floor and had forgotten about his master for a moment.

At this moment, Qingyan swiftly pulled a delicate, small, round pendant from her bosom. This pendant was custom-made for Tianyan Peak by Jiang Shiliu; its exquisite craftsmanship and superior materials highlighted its preciousness and uniqueness. Qingyan skillfully activated the magical artifact and softly called out to it, "Master, have you successfully obtained what you needed and returned? We have safely entered 'Baiweizhai' and are waiting for your return in the VIP room on the top floor."

However, after a moment's thought, Jiang Shiliu stood up and decisively said, "Forget it, rather than waiting here, I'd better go downstairs to greet Master myself. This way, not only will Master know where we are as soon as possible, but we can also take this opportunity to thank Young Master Jiang in person for all the help and care he has given us." With that, she strode towards the door without hesitation.

As soon as Jiang Shiliu finished speaking, she turned around without hesitation, gently pushed open the door, and stepped out with light steps, then quickly descended the stairs. At the same time, Jiang Moqi was sitting in the second-floor hall. Jiang Shiliu ran all the way and arrived at Jiang Moqi's side in the blink of an eye.

She was slightly out of breath and said with a smile, "Young Master Jiang, are you here to check on the business of your shop? Or are you worried that uninvited guests will come and cause trouble?" As she spoke, her gaze inadvertently swept over Jiang Moqi, but she did not notice that he was no longer sitting in a wheelchair.

Jiang Moqi slowly raised his head, his deep eyes gazing tenderly at the beauty before him like the warm spring sun, and asked softly, "Miss Jiang, why didn't you rest upstairs instead of rushing down to watch others queue?"

Jiang Shiliu shook her head and explained, "That's not it. My master went to retrieve something and hasn't returned yet. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to enter smoothly because of the crowd in the shop, so I came downstairs to greet him and to express my gratitude to you." After speaking, she turned her gaze to the bustling scene downstairs, and for some reason, her body suddenly trembled involuntarily, as if she felt a chill.

Seeing this, Jiang Moqi showed concern and asked, "Oh? What does Miss Jiang want to thank me for? Please tell me."

"Thank you for the VIP card! It's even a super VIP card!" Jiang Shiliu replied with a smile, her eyes crinkling. Her smile, as beautiful as spring flowers in bloom, was captivating, especially the two shallow dimples on her cheeks, which were as eye-catching as twinkling stars in the night sky.

Standing to the side, Jiang Moqi elegantly straightened his clothes and then spoke with great composure, "I'm not worried about that at all. My family is very wealthy and powerful! With your small appetites, even if you came to eat here every day, it would only be a drop in the ocean. I can afford this small amount of money." As he spoke, his face radiated confidence and composure, as if everything before him was under his complete control.

Hearing Jiang Moqi's words, Jiang Shiliu was slightly taken aback, then a helpless smile appeared on her face. She gently shook her head, inwardly marveling at how generous and magnanimous this guy was, as always. However, at the same time, she couldn't help but wonder if he really had such abundant wealth to support such reckless spending. But looking at Jiang Moqi's firm and composed expression, Jiang Shiliu ultimately chose to believe him.

"But this is only our first meeting today! Although the way we met is a bit unusual." Jiang Shiliu frowned slightly, looking at the other person with utmost seriousness, and slowly spoke. Her clear and melodious voice seemed to penetrate one's soul.

"It is quite special. I have seen many scenes of heroes rescuing beauties, but this is the first time I have seen a beauty rescuing a hero." Jiang Moqi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. He couldn't help but recall the scene of his first meeting with Jiang Shiliu this afternoon, and couldn't help but find it a little funny.

"No! I'm still the same. Aren't you good-looking? But you've been wearing a mask the whole time, so it's true that people can't see your whole face. But just from the mouth that's showing under your mask, I can be sure you're very good-looking!!!" Jiang Shiliu said, moving closer to Jiang Moqi and carefully examining his face. After a thorough observation, she came to this confident conclusion.

"Oh? You're so curious about what I look like? You know, no one else has ever seen my real face! So, do you really want to see?" Jiang Moqi looked at the curious woman in front of him with a half-smile, his tone tinged with a hint of mockery.

"Um...that...you can't go and kill me after you've finished reading, okay?" Jiang Shiliu hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn't suppress her intense curiosity and cautiously replied. Her bright eyes were filled with anticipation and nervousness, afraid that she might accidentally offend the mysterious man in front of her.

"Hahaha, don't worry, I would never do that. How could I! I'm a law-abiding citizen~" Jiang Moqi was amused by Jiang Shiliu's cute appearance and burst into laughter, instantly making the tense atmosphere relaxed and pleasant.
