25: Making things difficult for Zhou Duoer

When Chen Xian and Li Yu came down with Da Huang, they immediately caught everyone's attention.

There was no other reason.

It was because their combination was simply too strange.

A stunningly beautiful woman!

An incredibly rustic Local Dog!

And a man whose appearance seemed a bit unworthy of the woman beside him.

Of course, if Chen Xian knew what these people were thinking, he would be completely speechless.

They were already cultivating to become Immortals; did they still have to care about looks?

Sitting in the hall, he saw Chen Xian about to order food.

Li Yu was actually quite cooperative.

After all, she had sought out Chen Xian to be her fiancé as a so-called shield.

During this time, the higher the profile, the better.

However, she was curious about one thing: why did this man insist on eating here?

Could he be trying to show off?

Meanwhile, Chen Xian was already sizing up the young girl in front of him.

Zhou Duoer wore clothes made of coarse linen; although they looked extremely ordinary and plain—not even as good as what common folk wore.

But Chen Xian could see a sense of spiritual liveliness in this girl.

As expected of a descendant of the ancient Divine Phoenix Clan.

Even if fallen into the mortal world, she was still incomparable to ordinary people.

Zhou Duoer calmly took a step back.

She asked timidly, "Dear guest, what would you like to order?"

She had been working here for three months.

Many Immortals had taken an interest in her appearance and wanted to take her away as a maid or a concubine.

However, in the Juxian Tower, taking someone away without their consent was strictly forbidden.

Zhou Duoer also knew what her ultimate fate would be if she fell into their hands, so she worked desperately hard.

She was determined not to let these people succeed.

Now that Chen Xian's eyes were fixed on her, Zhou Duoer suspected he had ulterior motives.

"Bring out everything famous you have here!"

Chen Xian threw a bag of Spirit Stones onto the table with a thud.

He said arrogantly, "I have plenty of money!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

It immediately drew the attention of everyone in the hall.

The Juxian Tower was a mix of all sorts of people, and someone soon recognized Chen Xian's identity.

"Holy crap, isn't that the Heir of the Marquis of Jubei?"

"The one known as the number one dandy of Jubei City?"

"Strange, why is he here?"

"Sigh, you guys don't know. This kid sold the Jubei Marquiss Residence. He's probably homeless now, which is why he's wandering around here!"

"Tsk tsk, it really makes one sigh. This wastrel still dares to be so arrogant here? Without his father, he'd better watch out or some enemy might kill him!"

"But the woman opposite him is so beautiful!"

The discussions continued incessantly.

Although Chen Xian looked calm on the surface, his heart was in turmoil.

Not cool, man.

With this kind of fame, you'd definitely make it as a celebrity.

Li Yu remained unperturbed by Chen Xian's arrogant and suicidal entrance.

She could only watch with a smiling appreciation.

In her eyes, this man was definitely not brainless.

He probably had a purpose for doing this.

But what was the purpose?

To make things difficult for a little girl?

At this moment, a woman walked over.

She said with a smile, "Dear guest, she is new. If there's anything you need, you can just tell me."

Chen Xian raised an eyebrow.

Tell you?

You're not from the Divine Phoenix Clan!

He pointed at Zhou Duoer.

He continued to shout loudly, "I want her to serve me. What? I've spent over a hundred thousand Spirit Stones in your Juxian Tower, and I can't even have this small request granted?"

Nie Hongshuang grit her teeth.

Although she wanted to argue.

There was no way to refute him.

Because the principle of Juxian Tower was that the customer is everything.

As long as you paid enough.

Forget about ordering food; they'd even feed it to you.

"Zhou Duoer, you serve this Young Master yourself. If he has any dissatisfaction, you leave immediately!"

After Nie Hongshuang said this coldly, she turned and left.

Clearly, she also knew that Chen Xian was not someone easy to deal with.

Even though he didn't have his father to back him up now, since he paid to enter, Juxian Tower couldn't do anything to him—at least not openly.

Chen Xian beckoned with his finger.

"Now, can you serve me?"

Zhou Duoer felt like the sky was falling.

Her biggest reliance was Nie Hongshuang, the Supervisor of the first-floor hall. If even Sister Hongshuang couldn't help, what should she do?

"What... what do you want?"

"Is your memory that bad? I want you to bring out every single famous dish and Immortal Wine! If one is missing, I'll hold you responsible!"

Zhou Duoer was so scared she almost tripped.

However, she still hurried off to prepare the food.

Li Yu, on the other hand, looked at Chen Xian thoughtfully.

"Aren't you ashamed of bullying a little girl like this?"

Chen Xian said nonchalantly, "As the Heir of the Marquis of Jubei, have I not lost enough face already?"

"One more time won't hurt!"

"Hahahaha, you have a point there!"

She had no intention of leaving because she wanted to see what Chen Xian was up to!

But at that moment.

An old man walked up to her.

"Eldest Young Miss, someone is looking for you!"

"Oh?"

Li Yu looked up, and the old man mouthed a few words silently.

A playful expression appeared on Li Yu's face.

"I didn't expect him to come as well. Fine, I'll go now."

She stood up and looked at Chen Xian.

"I'll take my leave for today. I'll come find you tomorrow!"

"Wait, don't! I'm only being this high-profile for your sake! If you leave, who's going to protect me?"

Li Yu saw through his lie at a glance but didn't expose him.

Instead, she said with a smile, "If you can survive until tomorrow, I'll give you a gift!"

After she finished speaking, she turned and left with the old man.

Chen Xian also breathed a sigh of relief.

In truth, he felt incredibly uneasy with Li Yu around.

But he didn't want to miss the chance to bring Zhou Duoer to his side, which was why he put on this act today.

He had to act his heart out while worrying if Li Yu would see through his intentions.

Fortunately, she was gone.

Now, he could truly begin his performance.

Fifteen minutes later.

Zhou Duoer personally brought all the dishes up.

Not just the food, but the Immortal Wine as well.

Chen Xian pointed at the cup.

"What are you staring at?"

"Pour the wine!"

Zhou Duoer stood there blankly, startled by Chen Xian's shout.

She jumped in fright.

She hurriedly poured the wine, but because she was short and felt Chen Xian's pressure.

In an instant, the wine actually spilled all over the table.

"Look at you, you can't even pour wine properly?"

"Say you're sorry!"

Zhou Duoer: "I'm sorry!"

Chen Xian pointed at the dishes on the table.

"Serve me some food!"

Zhou Duoer: "..."

"This... this doesn't seem to be within the scope of Juxian Tower's service!"
