Standing at the door, he could see You Ruo busy inside. Was it not appropriate for him to go in now?

But not helping doesn't seem right either.

What to do? I'm so conflicted.

You Ruo was busy in the kitchen by herself, but she didn't seem flustered. She turned around and saw Yun Si standing at the door with a frown on his face. She was taken aback and asked curiously, "Junior Brother, is something bothering you?"

Why does he look so conflicted?

Yun Si was taken aback, then smiled subconsciously and said, "Senior Sister is busy all by herself, it seems wrong if I don't help, but she's all alone, would it be inappropriate for me to go in?"

Hearing his answer, You Ruo was taken aback, then burst out laughing: "Junior Brother, it's alright, no one will misunderstand."

You Ruo looked at Yun Si with a smile on her face, her eyes crinkling into crescents. From Yun Si's perspective, it seemed as if there were stars in her eyes.

Yun Si's ears felt a little hot. He touched his head and walked into You Ruo's room somewhat awkwardly, looking like an honest person.

You Ruo had already prepared the side dishes and everything, so there was nothing to help with. He was just asked to sit for a while, and the others would be arriving in a few days.

Yun Si nodded, sat up straight and stiffly on the stool closest to the window and furthest from You Ruo, staring down at the ground without looking to the side.

To anyone, including You Ruo, this was an honest child.

As she cooked, she thought to herself, "My junior brother is so adorable."

The honest and adorable junior brother sat obediently, lost in thought, sometimes thinking about the things he had dealt with during the day, and sometimes thinking about what to do next and how to quickly achieve his goal.

He's living a comfortable life in the Jingyou Sect right now, and he doesn't want anyone to cause trouble, so he... decided to strike first.

The advantage of living in the same building is that if everyone pays attention, they can know where each other is going.

Hua Xi and the other two came down quickly, followed by Old Man Pingnan.

"Junior Sister, what delicious food did you make this time?"

Before he even arrived, his voice preceded his entrance. Before he even stepped inside, Huo Wenyu impatiently asked in a loud voice.

Yun Si stood up and said with a smile, "You've finally arrived."

Huo Wenyu turned his head and looked at him enviously: "You're so clever, knowing to live next to Junior Sister. It'll be much easier for you to mooch meals from her in the future."

With my junior sister's cooking skills, the aroma of her food is so strong that you could smell it from far away. If you're shameless enough, you could easily sneak a taste.

How could they only think about the better view from a higher place and forget about this other factor?

What a mistake.

Upon hearing this, Yun Si smiled sheepishly, glanced at You Ruo subtly, and then said, "I won't hog all the food behind everyone's back."

Huo Wenyu laughed heartily: "Haha, then if Junior Sister ever cooks something delicious in the future, you must let us know."

Yun Si nodded seriously: "I will."

You Ruo, who was cooking nearby and had been watching the whole thing, was speechless.

Fine, as long as they're happy, they don't need to care whether she lives or dies.

Hmph, did you think she didn't think of that?

Naive.

Her house isn't just a simple soundproofing array; it has all the functions of a cave dwelling, and it's even more advanced. The materials used cost her quite a few spirit stones.

If she keeps the doors and windows closed and the smell can still get out, then she's failed, okay?

It's one thing to cook for so many people once in a while, but to do it every time is just ridiculous. She's a sect leader, after all; she should have some image to maintain, you know.

Huo Wenyu chatted with Yun Si, while Hua Xi and Song Sheng observed the furnishings in the room.

You Ruo's room gave them an indescribable feeling; in short, it looked different from their rooms.

Hua Xi scratched her head after looking around several times and asked in confusion, "Junior Sister, your... room seems different from ours?"

You Ruo, who was cooking, paused for a moment, then shook her head: "No, all the rooms are laid out the same."

"Then why is it different from ours?"

Hua Xi lived in the room on the left on the third floor, Song Sheng lived in the middle, and Huo Wenyu lived on the right. They had already seen what each other's rooms looked like.

To be honest, although the junior sister's room was well-designed, many parts were unnecessary for them and it was more suitable for ordinary people.

For example, they don't cook or eat, so the kitchen and dining room are redundant and remain empty.

But here at You Ruo's place, it seems there's no extra space, unlike theirs.

You Ruo understood their dilemma almost instantly and said with a smile, "Because I'm a bit of a hassle, I need to use all the rooms, so they look more cozy. Your rooms are empty, so they look different."

Their rooms are definitely empty; the eldest brother might even be refining pills in the living room or dining room!

When she has free time, we need to get a sofa too; hard chairs are not comfortable to sit on at all.

"Is that right?"

Hua Xi was skeptical, but then ignored the ornaments and found that they did indeed seem to be the same.

Okay, I can try to imitate that.

Hua Xi thought about tidying up his room when she got back and making better use of it.

Song Sheng and the others didn't care at all. In their opinion, as long as they could stay, that was fine. Yun Si's room only had a bed, a table, and a stool.

If it weren't for drawing talismans, he probably wouldn't even have a table or chair.

The group chatted and laughed as You Ruo quickly cooked and arranged the dishes. They then went back to get chairs, and finally, they were able to eat.

Huo Wenyu had already set his sights on the spicy chicken, which looked and smelled incredibly tempting. He reached for it with his chopsticks so quickly that You Ruo didn't have a chance to stop him.

"Senior Brother! This is very spicy! You can't eat it!"

Even if she didn't add too much chili because she hadn't eaten much spicy food before, that's only relatively speaking!

As You Ruo was speaking, Huo Wenyu had already put the food in his mouth. Then his face stiffened, and he covered his mouth with one hand while tightly gripping his chopsticks with the other, his face turning red.

You Ruo looked at him with sympathy: "Second Senior Brother, you have such good taste."

They immediately chose the spiciest dish.

Huo Wenyu took a while before starting to pick up other dishes. In the meantime, everyone followed You Ruo's lead and ate whatever You Ruo ate.

How could a cultivator who can't distinguish between grains possibly know the taste of these everyday dishes?

No one touched the plate of spicy chicken except for You Ruo and Huo Wenyu.

Huo Wenyu initially felt very uncomfortable, but after eating other dishes he felt better and wanted to eat more, so he would pick up the food whenever he wanted. When he felt uncomfortable again, he would eat other dishes, and then he became more and more intoxicated.

His lips were already a dark color, and now they looked like he had applied lip rouge. Song Sheng couldn't help but glance at him several times.

Just like him, it was Yun Si who was secretly watching You Ruo, while Hua Xi was engrossed in eating and completely oblivious to it.
