Eating

Lu Xing returned to Earth.

He looked around and found himself sitting on a stone under a banyan tree next to the West Teaching Building, facing the passersby. In his hand was a bag of half-eaten biscuits, and beside him was a bottle of half-drunk water.

The fairy has learned to eat and drink, how wonderful!

Lu Xing sighed with relief.

He had specially prepared the biscuits and water because he had roughly figured out the fairy's personality. She wouldn't actively communicate with people, so if Lu Xing wanted to avoid going hungry when he returned, he had to prepare food for her.

It was quite strange, he thought. Among the four people he had swapped with, two had no common sense of daily life, yet he couldn't blame them. After all, one cultivated immortality and the other lived in a virtual world.

Instead, it was Lu Xing's mortal body that was a burden to them, causing the fairy to fall into the mortal realm and have to be tainted by the mundane world.

Taking the fairy's unfinished biscuits and water back to the dormitory, Lu Xing found his phone on the desk. After thinking for a moment, he still called Xiao Yu.

"I'm at work, is something wrong?" Xiao Yu quickly answered the phone.

"Sorry, then you go back to work, I'll message you."

"Since you've already called, why are you dragging it out? Hurry up and say it!" Xiao Yu urged.

Lu Xing then asked her, "Did I call you today?"

"No, who did you turn into again?"

She accurately guessed the meaning behind Lu Xing's words.

"I turned into the Cold Ice Fairy."

"She doesn't have a name? Always using such a vulgar nickname as Cold Ice Fairy!" Xiao Yu laughed.

"Unfortunately, I couldn't ask. I can only refer to her as the Cold Ice Fairy."

Lu Xing was also helpless. Including the fairy, half of the souls in the mirror said they had no name. Lu Xing could only silently label them: Empress, Purple-Clad Woman, Blue Skirt Girl, and so on.

"Is it a taboo in the Immortal Realm? They say knowing a name can allow you to cast a hex!"

Xiao Yu guessed, having recently watched a Hong Kong film from the 90s.

Lu Xing laughed out loud, "Something like a hex, the fairy could kill tens of millions with just a hum!"

He wasn't exaggerating; the fairy really could kill tens of millions with a single sound.

"I was just using a metaphor! Something like a curse," Xiao Yu mumbled. "She didn't call me today. Let's leave it at that for now. I'll come find you after work, probably around 6:30. Pick me up at the West Gate."

She hung up after saying that, not being polite with him at all, after all, they had a body-swapping relationship.

Lu Xing didn't even know why she was coming. He had originally planned to use his meal card to eat, but since she was coming, he would wait until she arrived.

An hour later.

"Over here."

By the roadside outside the West Gate, the rear door of a black sedan opened, revealing Xiao Yu's bright and dignified face. She smiled at Lu Xing.

Lu Xing remained calm, but the students passing by were stunned, and even many people in the distance cast their gaze over.

Lu Xing wasn't in a hurry to get in the car and asked her first, "Aren't you getting out?"

"Get in, I'll treat you today."

"That's too kind, let me treat you instead."

"You have money?"

Xiao Yu glanced at him, a hint of a smile in her eyes. "You broke someone's phone and still owe the counselor two thousand yuan."

"It wasn't me, okay? It was Little Jiang!"

Lu Xing sighed. A single penny can stump a hero. He was a transmigrator, after all, and yet he was still so poor!

Xiao Yu smiled. "Come on up, I'll treat you today. I also have something else to tell you."

Lu Xing nodded, walked around to the other side of the car, and got in, sitting next to Xiao Yu with an armrest between them.

"What kind of car is this?"

Lu Xing could tell from the decorations that this car was very high-end. The ceiling had scattered lights, like a starry sky.

"You're a guy and you don't recognize it? I thought all guys understood cars."

Xiao Yu still remembered the last time she didn't recognize a BMW.

Lu Xing said, "I only know Mercedes, BMW, and Audi. I haven't studied the others."

As they chatted, the car drove into a restaurant parking lot. When they got out, before Lu Xing even opened his door, Xiao Yu's assistant came up and opened it for him.

After Xiao Yu got out, the assistant led the way, meaning she didn't have to worry about anything; she just had to go eat.

Lu Xing smiled. "Do you know what I just thought of?"

"What did you think of?"

"Anne."

"That noble lady from the magic world?"

"Right, she had seven or eight maids to help her get dressed. It just occurred to me, she has to dress herself now that she's on Earth!"

Any normal person can dress themselves, but three of the four people who had transmigrated into Lu Xing's body were not normal people.

"Seven or eight maids served you?"

Xiao Yu looked at him with a strange expression.

"Not me, Anne!"

"Then she was also seen by you—"

Xiao Yu quickly closed her mouth. There were assistants and bodyguards nearby, so it wasn't appropriate to say such things.

As they spoke, the two entered the restaurant. The assistant had already gone to the front desk to get a table, and Lu Xing and Xiao Yu just had to follow.

After being seated, they ordered. Lu Xing took a look. Thankfully, a dish was only two or three hundred, not the thousands he had imagined.

The white, rich, and beautiful woman in front of him had a lifestyle that was astonishing in every aspect.

"What do you want to eat?"

"Whatever, I can eat anything, you know that, right?"

Lu Xing said with a smile.

Xiao Yu rolled her eyes at him and pointed at the spicy rabbit head on the menu: "Not only can you eat, you eat a lot... How about this dish for you?"

"Okay."

"Do you drink?"

"Only at gatherings, usually not."

Lu Xing and she each ordered two dishes and a soup. While waiting for the food, Lu Xing talked about his experiences in the Immortal Realm.

Actually, it was just climbing a mountain.

Xiao Yu listened with great surprise: "That fairy just shouted once, and the wind and snow stopped?"

"After all, she's a fairy who lives in an ice mountain."

"Hard to understand, isn't it better elsewhere? Why live in a cave?"

"Don't look at her with the eyes of ordinary people. Many things we consider common sense seem strange to her!"

"That's true."

Xiao Yu stirred her teacup with a spoon a few times, then suddenly looked up at him: "That fairy... she's very beautiful, right?"

"Uh."

Lu Xing didn't know whether to praise her or not for a moment.

If Xiao Yu were a girl with an ordinary appearance and self-awareness, Lu Xing could completely praise others for being beautiful.

But Xiao Yu was also a great beauty, and beauties are all proud. If Lu Xing praised others again, it would seem like the person in front of him couldn't compare to the other.

Xiao Yu stared at him: "No need to answer, I can tell from your expression that she's the most beautiful person you've ever seen!"

Lu Xing smiled: "Her appearance and figure are similar to yours... big."

He bit his tongue and swallowed the word 'big' back.

He really knew!

"But she cultivates immortality, her temperament is completely different from ordinary people. If you cultivated immortality, you would also be a fairy!"

Lu Xing finished speaking.

"I don't want to be any fairy, besides, at my age... never mind."

Xiao Yu changed the subject and said: "If I have a chance someday, I'd also like to meet this peerless fairy. It's a pity she didn't even call me."

Lu Xing smiled: "I don't even know her name or how to address her. If it weren't for accidentally swapping bodies with her, I probably could stand in front of her and shout until my throat was hoarse, and she wouldn't pay attention."

"Is her personality that cold?" Xiao Yu became even more curious.

"Not cold, it's indifference, no, that's not right, reclusive? Socially awkward? None of these are accurate. She probably belongs to the type of invincible powerhouse in the world. What stronger people think is different from ordinary people. It's most appropriate to think of her as a Nine Heavens Fairy, someone who can only be admired from afar."

Lu Xing vaguely understood that the Cold Ice Fairy was in the ice room not to avoid enemies, nor for cultivation, she was simply living there.

Just as a beautiful senior in the mirror said, she could lie down and rest anywhere. The heavens and the earth, the Three Realms and Six Paths, everywhere was the same, why must she go somewhere specific?

With her strength, even if she lay in the wind and snow, there weren't many people who could shake her, let alone get close.
