Since Jiang Nan had asked today, the two of them simply took the opportunity to be honest with everyone. Ye Lan silently chanted "the sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn" to bolster her confidence.

Jiang Nan looked at their nervous expressions and asked, "What important thing are you two hiding from us that you have to wait until everyone is here before telling us?"

They were still on the snow-capped mountain. Su Bo and Nangong Yue had gone a little further away; they were on their way to find the two people.

"It's a big thing."

Ye Lan walked at the front and saw Nangong Yue and Su Bo's two little red foxes. When the two little red foxes saw Xiao Bai coming, they hid behind their master and were a little afraid of Xiao Bai.

"Why are you here?"

When the little red fox hid behind Su Bo, he knew that Ye Lan had come. They already knew that Xiao Bai was not an ordinary demon beast. What ordinary demon beast would make his spirit pet so cowardly?

The little red fox's mother has been staying in the Su family castle recently, feeding it medicine and helping it recover from its injuries. She didn't come here with them. Now that her child has recognized her as its master, it is willing to follow Nangong Yue and the others.

Ye Lan held Xiao Bai in his arms to keep it from scaring the little red fox. He then said to Su Bo and Nangong Yue, "There's something I want to tell you."

Su Bo: "Hmm?"

Finally, the five of them gathered together. Seeing that everyone was there, Ye Lan nudged Jiang Ning next to her, deciding to let him speak first, as she was too shy and wanted to back down a bit.

To everyone's surprise, Jiang Ning took his hand and said to the other three, "We're together now."

This news was like a thunderbolt that struck everyone's minds. Jiang Nan was full of question marks. They hadn't received any warning beforehand.

Nangong Yue was the first to come to her senses. She looked at the two holding hands and whispered, "Congratulations."

"No, how come you..."

Jiang Nan pointed at the two of them, and after a long pause, she finally said, "How did you suddenly fall for each other?"

"Actually, it wasn't sudden. I only realized my feelings very late," Jiang Ning explained to everyone. Ye Lan scratched his palm with the hand that was being held, telling him to take it easy, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

Jiang Nan then asked, "So what should I call Ye Lan from now on?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ning glanced at him sideways: "Don't you usually just call me by my name? What else do you want to call him?"

Ye Lan chimed in, "That's right, our relationship has just changed, it hasn't mutated."

Ye Lan would never allow anyone to call him "sister-in-law" or anything like that. How could a grown man like him call someone that? Besides, he and Jiang Nan were friends to begin with, and they didn't meet after they got together with Jiang Ning.

Jiang Nan: "Okay."

After speaking, he glanced at Su Bo, wanting to see his reaction. Jiang Ning and Ye Lan also looked at him.

Su Bo shrugged: "Of course I'll still respect and offer my blessings, it doesn't make any difference."

These two have always been his good brothers, and being together won't affect their friendship.

Su Bo: "Since such a good thing has happened, how about we have a drink to celebrate tonight?"

Jiang Ning readily agreed: "Okay, it's on me."

"Then I want to eat a super big steamed crab. I saw it when I went to return the food box yesterday, and it looked really delicious," Jiang Nan even named the dish she wanted to eat.

"no problem."

These people no longer cared about finding snow lotus or other spiritual herbs. They figured one more day wouldn't make a difference, and they all planned to lend Ye Lan high-grade spirit stones so that he could set off for Beigong City on time.

So the group of people went down the mountain and headed back.

On their way back to Wuya City, Su Bo followed behind Nangong Yue, staying very close to her. Nangong Yue had the lowest cultivation level and couldn't fly as fast, so they gradually fell behind and distanced themselves from the three people in front.

Su Bo spoke up beside her, "I can tell you're not happy."

Nangong Yue turned to look at him: "Is it that obvious?"

"Hmm." Su Bo nodded, finally asking the question that had been on her mind for a long time: "Do you like Jiang Ning?"

On Su Bo's birthday, Nangong Yue gave him a very expensive gift. He knew then that Nangong Yue didn't want to owe anyone a favor because of the Red Fox incident. Moreover, they had been spending a lot of time together, and through this long period of time, he could sense Nangong Yue's subtle concern for Jiang Ning.

After listening, Nangong Yue paused, then continued flying forward, calmly replying, "Don't worry, I will absolutely not interfere between the two of them."

“That’s not what I meant.” Su Bo was a little tongue-tied when facing Nangong Yue, afraid that she would misunderstand: “I just hope you won’t be unhappy.”

"I wouldn't say I'm unhappy."

Nangong Yue didn't know how to describe this feeling. Although she didn't have a strong desire to be with Jiang Ning, the fact that the first person she liked was with someone else made it impossible for her to immediately adjust her mood and sincerely wish him well.

She thought for a moment and said to Su Bo, "I just need some time to accept it."

She would keep her feelings to herself and not cause any trouble for Jiang Ning and Ye Lan. As for Su Bo's feelings for her, she couldn't reciprocate for the time being.

"it is good."

Having received a definite answer from her, Su Bo was not discouraged. As long as she did not explicitly reject him, he still had a glimmer of hope.

They soon arrived in Uya City. The tavern they visited was the most famous in the entire city, and although it wasn't mealtime yet, there were already quite a few people inside.

As soon as they entered, the waiter greeted them warmly: "Please come in, sirs."

Jiang Ning: "I'd like a top-class private room."

"Alright, sir, please follow me to the third floor," the waiter said, bowing and leading the way eagerly.

Once inside the private room, Jiang Ning let the three of them order. He told them to be generous with their choices. The waiter brought up a booklet with a menu inside, in which the main ingredients of each dish were drawn with ink.

Jiang Nan took the dish, flipped through it, and immediately ordered the dishes: "Then I want this steamed crab, butterfly shrimp, stir-fried squid, braised shrimp, and mint fried pork ribs."

"I'd like the garlic vermicelli scallops, the scallion oil abalone slices, and the spicy whelks." After ordering, Su Bo looked at Nangong Yue, "Is there anything else you'd like to eat?"

Nangong Yue shook her head: "Whatever."

So Su Bo said to the waiter, "Bring us two more jugs of good wine."

"Give me another order of squid balls," Jiang Nan thought of the squid balls she had eaten a few days ago and now wanted to eat them again.

The waiter said "Okay," confirmed the dishes they wanted to order, and then left.

This tavern truly lives up to its reputation as the finest in Wuya City. Not only is the service excellent, but the food is also served incredibly quickly and tastes delicious. To be honest, the dishes here are in no way inferior to those made by Ye Lan.

Even though there aren't many types of pork available here, the mint fried pork ribs are still amazing.

The steamed crab was the last dish served, and it was meant to be eaten in its original flavor. They also served it with a special sauce, and the thick, fatty crab legs were very satisfying to eat with the sauce. After opening the crab shell, there was a lot of crab roe. The waiter even mixed rice on top, and they ate it with great relish.

Jiang Nan undoubtedly ate until he was stuffed again. He patted his stomach and said, "If only I could take advantage of you guys like this every day."

Ye Lan chuckled. As expected, Jiang Nan didn't care about anything as long as there was food.

Su Bo held up his wine glass: "No matter what your relationship is, you'll always be my good brothers."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning and Ye Lan picked up their glasses together, clinked glasses, and drank them down in one gulp. After finishing, Ye Lan glanced at Jiang Ning; the situation was far better than he had imagined.
