After leaving the school gate, Gu Yue still didn't say anything.
The two walked one after the other, two steps apart, neither speaking first. The atmosphere wasn't exactly awkward, but it certainly wasn't harmonious either.
Qing Linyun wasn't in a hurry, and just followed slowly behind, watching to see where Gu Yue was headed.
Gu Yue's mind was in turmoil, unsure how to broach the subject with Qing Linyun, but Qing Linyun was clearly enjoying this heartwarming moment.
There were quite a few pedestrians on East Sea Avenue, after all, it was rush hour, and Gu Yue and Qing Linyun walked one after the other in the crowd.
"Don't miss out! Fresh Ju Zi from our own orchard in the countryside. Handsome, would you like to buy some?"
"Selling candied hawthorns! Candied hawthorns!"
"Supermarket grand opening sale! Eggs are only 30 cents each today!"
Many stalls were set up on the sidewalk. The shouts of vendors rose and fell, creating a lively atmosphere. Qing Linyun watched this scene with a smile, feeling as if he had returned to his previous Blue Planet.
"Hey handsome, our grilled cold noodles are the best in Eastsea City, would you like to try some?"
Qing Linyun stopped and looked at the small stall with the sign for grilled cold noodles.
"Grilled cold noodles? Boss, you make grilled cold noodles here? I heard it's a snack from Shrek Academy."
This is like Guan Gong (a legendary swordsman).
After all, Qing Linyun was the first to create grilled cold noodles in the Douluo Continent, so it has always been a famous dish of Shrek Academy.
He hadn't expected the technology to spread so quickly; people in Eastsea City were already using it.
Qing Linyun curiously approached and looked at the middle-aged man's stall. Ingredients, sauces...
"Hehe, of course I can do it."
"To be honest, I even went to Shrek for further training, and this stuff is really good."
"This is my first time setting up a stall. Boss, would you like to try some?"
The middle-aged man laughed, looking quite proud as he spoke of it.
Qing Linyun nodded. For everyone in the Douluo Continent, Shrek was a holy land that everyone flocked to. Anything that bore the Shrek Academy name would be snapped up.
"Okay, give me two."
"Okay, boss, please wait a moment."
"Hey, Gu Yue. Don't go any further, come here."
Gu Yue, who had been walking forward, paused.
An inexplicable anger rose within me.
'That scoundrel! How dare he order this Silver Dragon King around? What is he doing?!'
Gu Yue turned her head and saw Qing Linyun standing in front of the grilled cold noodles stall. Her anger instantly dissipated, and her gaze was fixed on the grilled cold noodles that were being prepared.
Clearly, our Silver Dragon King is getting a little hungry.
It's not her fault; after all, not everyone can resist grilled cold noodles.
'He bought two portions, so one should be for me, right? Humph, I'll forgive him for now since he bought grilled cold noodles. Let me try it first. I'll get angry with him after I've tasted it.'
Gu Yue snorted inwardly, but her steps were quick as she silently moved towards Qing Linyun.
"Okay, here are your two orders of grilled cold noodles."
"That's 15 Federation Coin in total. How would you like to pay?"
Qing Linyun took the freshly grilled cold noodles handed to him by the middle-aged man. He picked up a fork and took a small bite. The taste was not bad, quite similar to the recipe from Shrek Academy.
Gu Yue stared longingly at the other plate of grilled cold noodles in his hand, wondering when Qing Linyun would hand her the grilled cold noodles.
Qing Linyun noticed Gu Yue's gaze and looked over in confusion.
"What are you standing there for? Pay up!"
Gu Yue stood frozen in place, as if petrified.
She seemed somewhat incredulous; how could Qing Linyun, with his 37-degree mouth, utter such cold words? "I haven't even eaten yet, and you're already asking me to pay."
Gu Yue opened her mouth, but seeing Qing Linyun's matter-of-fact expression, she didn't know what to say. In the end, she could only silently pay the money.
After paying, Qing Linyun nodded in satisfaction. Then, to Gu Yue's astonishment, he walked straight ahead without any intention of sharing with Gu Yue.
A sudden burst of anger erupted from Gu Yue's head.
No longer feigning weakness or hesitating, she kicked her legs like little motors and caught up with Qing Linyun.
"Grilled cold noodles!"
Qing Linyun looked at Gu Yue, who was stunned with anger, and scratched his head.
"This is mine."
"What do you mean 'your'? I paid for it."
Gu Yue was so angry he was practically fuming.
"Yeah, you pay for it and I'll eat it."
Qing Linyun nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
" Qing Linyun, I'll cook you..."
"Hey, you can't say that, you have to be polite."
Qing Linyun covered Gu Yue's mouth and held Gu Yue tightly in his arms. Gu Yue was startled and started swearing, while twisting her body, trying to break free from Qing Linyun's embrace.
She has now completely transformed into Silver Dragon Fish.
From the perspective of those around them, they looked like a brother and sister flirting, and they were both very good-looking and had great charisma, attracting people to stop and stare.
Gu Yue naturally witnessed this scene as well. Her face turned bright red, and she pounded Qing Linyun's chest repeatedly with both hands while cursing under her breath.
" Qing Linyun, you bastard, let me go!"
Qing Linyun slightly relaxed his right arm.
Awoo.
Just then, Gu Yue finally seized the opportunity and bit Qing Linyun's arm, leaving four deep teeth marks.
Qing Linyun then released his embrace from Gu Yue, and casually hung the uneaten plate of grilled cold noodles around Gu Yue's neck.
Gu Yue looked at the grilled cold noodles hanging on her chest, then at the laughing Qing Linyun, and became even angrier.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry anymore."
Qing Linyun smiled and ruffled Gu Yue's hair.
The Gu Yue steamer is boiling again.
This time, Gu Yue chose a different strategy; she was like a human missile, constantly moving forward.
Qing Linyun looked at Gu Yue, who was sulking and running around incessantly, and smiled helplessly.
However, the homeowner has a magic weapon.
A flash of silver energy appeared on Qing Linyun's body, and the next moment, he appeared directly in front of Gu Yue, blocking her path. Gu Yue didn't even have to react; she simply turned and walked away from the side.
Qing Linyun stood there for a moment, seemingly having discovered a blind spot.
If he blocks, Gu Yue changes direction, does that mean he can control the direction Gu Yue walks?
The theory was established, and practice began.
As soon as Qing Linyun blocked her way, Gu Yue immediately turned and walked to the other side, which made Qing Linyun very happy.
Finally, Gu Yue couldn't hold back any longer.
She stopped abruptly, glaring angrily at Qing Linyun. She knew her actions just now were somewhat embarrassing, as if she had been made a fool of.
"That's enough!"
"Alright, alright, Miss Gu Yue, I was wrong, okay? Don't be angry."
Qing Linyun toned down his playful antics and bent down to gently coax Gu Yue. "Toys shouldn't be played with too often; it wouldn't be good if they broke."
Gu Yue pouted; she actually regretted her actions just now, as they were so unbecoming of the Silver Dragon King. To be honest, those actions had calmed her down a bit.
"You stay behind me and don't say a word."
"Okay, I promise I'll complete the task."
Qing Linyun nodded with a smile. Gu Yue glared at Qing Linyun again, then turned and walked forward. Qing Linyun returned to his original state, following Gu Yue at a leisurely pace.
