The God of War Returns and Spices Up Life With MarriageCh10 - Chugging Vinegar

It’s about time for you to eat vinegar.


Ren Xingliu’s words were no less shocking than lightning striking the ground, stunning everyone present. 5Srwf4

Pei Xianzhi showed a look of bewilderment.

Someone subconsciously said, “Young Master Ren, you must be joking, right?”

At this moment, a tall and tall young man walked in from the door carrying two cans of soup. As soon as he came in, he saw Ren Xingliu standing by the door and couldn’t help but wonder: “Have you found your seat yet?”

This was when a tall and straight young man walked in with two pots of soups. As soon as the young man entered the food court, he saw Ren Xingliu standing by the door and wondered, “Have you not found a place to sit yet?” tOdUcW

“I ran into an acquaintance.” Ren Xingliu explained.

Bai Juanqiu followed his gaze. He didn’t know who Pei Xianzhi was, but when he saw Bai Yao at the table, he instantly understood.

The second Bai Yao saw Bai Juanqiu, he couldn’t believe his own eyes.

Could it be that Ren Xingliu wasn’t here to find Pei Xianzhi, but to eat with Bai Juanqiu?

p1UmL6

The one who made the humble Young Master Ren lower himself was Bai Juanqiu?

How could this be possible?!!

Soon, Ren Xingliu confirmed his suspicions.

If they ran into only Pei Xianzhi today, Ren Xingliu wouldn’t have said much. But since Bai Yao was also present, he naturally wanted to show off. MCxdsq

After all, this romantic relationship was specially made to flash the Bai Family.

Ren Xingliu pushed Bai Juanqiu forward, smiled and said sweetly, “Let me introduce everyone. This is my boyfriend.”

Bai Juanqiu really gave him a face and nodded expertly to the group at once, fulfilling his duty as the ‘boyfriend’.

The group of people was even more dumbfounded. cib8q

At first, they thought Ren Xingliu was pulling their legs. Now with the appearance of the ‘boyfriend’ himself, all of their earlier speculations became a joke.

Especially this ‘boyfriend’, who was both tall and handsome. The way he raised his hands, and the way he picked up his feet, they all contained a powerful aura, carrying a somewhat ‘Empress-like’ demeanor.

To ask them to pick any hairy defect in him at once was impossible.

Awkward, way too awkward!

On the contrary, Pei Xianzhi quickly came to his senses. As a prideful individual in every given moment, he wouldn’t lose his composure even in this situation. He even politely nodded at Bai Juanqiu.

The others exchanged a look with each other in disbelief, somewhat not having the way to move their hands or feet. While Ren Xingliu and Bai Juanqiu remained calm and compared, ignoring them after the introduction. jddMzL

Ren Xingliu gestured to an empty table not too far from them, saying, “Let’s sit there.”

Bai Juanqiu nodded. “Alright.”

The two of them walked straight through the open path and found a place to sit down.

Bai Juanqiu put the soups down and asked, “Which one sells the stir-fried noodles? I’ll get the food.” nCwEl5

“Window No. 5.” Ren Xingliu handed him the meal card and said grandly, “Mr. Ren will pay for everything tonight. You can add meat, eggs, and double ham if you want. Order whatever you want.”

“Number five.” Ren Xingliu passed his meal card over and said in a grand-aura manner, “Mr. Ren will cover all of the expenses tonight. You can add whatever you want to add, meat, egg, or even a double portion of ham. Just order whatever you want.”

Bai Juanqiu was amused by him and tapped the youth’s forehead with the meal card, saying in a serious tone, “Mr. Ren is very generous.”

This action was completely unprompted and natural, but in other’s eyes, the vibe was like they were the only two in the food court. PUi3kq

The people around Pei Xianzhi have an even more subtle change in their mood.

In fact, when Ren Xingliu was wooing Pei Xianzhi, it didn’t look good for everyone, after all, the difference between the two spoke for itself.

There would be ghosts if Pei Xianzhi was really interested in such a loiter.

Their commotion was mostly because they didn’t dislike the large excitement, but for the small part of it, they thought it would please Young Master Ren. Of course, there were also those who were hoping to see Ren Xingliu make a fool of himself. 31OJTP

Another person nodded in agreement and looked puzzled. “Who is his partner? How come I never heard of him before?” je9TyU

This was when someone thought of something. “Holy fuck, so the allegation from the melon seed eater group two days ago were real?”

Although there were nearly two thousand people in the group chat, not everyone was in the group. Like the other people present, learning this news for the first time. They asked, “What allegation?”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The person quickly took out his phone, searched for the keyword in the group chat and handed them his phone. “This one…”

As soon as others read it, they came to a sudden realization. sw3Pyc

Translator: Teo

“Oh, so they met on a blind date.”

Please read at CHRYSANTHEMUM GARDEN

“Oh, so it’s no wonder. I did hear about Young Master Ren’s family forcing him to go on blind dates…” TnMdet

“I have also heard of this. But I thought with Young Master Ren’s personality, he wouldn’t have gone through with it.”

Someone noticed the wow factor and said, “Wait a minute. The inside scoop stated that the partner is a cousin of a senior in Business Management, surnamed Bai?”

The ones in the know instantly sneered, and his attention shifted to another person present. “A senior from Business Management? Isn’t that Bai Yao?”

It was no secret that the Bai Family pushed their nephew to have a blind date with Ren Xingliu, but before, everyone thought there wouldn’t be a next arc, so none of them took it to heart. 0z4isd

Thinking about it now, this was fun enough for a few more tastes.

In just an instant, all eyes focused on Bai Yao.

They hadn’t forgotten that the person who invited Ren Xingliu to sit with them was Bai Yao.

If the leak was true, then this ‘boyfriend’ was the Bai Family’s nephew, and Bai Yao’s cousin. Then there was no way Bai Yao wasn’t aware of his cousin’s relationship with Ren Xingliu. PtlJWf

Since Bai Yao knew, then the thing he tried to pull, what was that about?

Pei Xianzhi originally intended to get past this matter by acting as if nothing had happened, but now he also realized that something was off. He gave Bai Yao a cold glance and said in a low voice, “Bai Yao, you have a heart.”

He had some impression of Bai Yao and didn’t consider him as annoying. This person was only somewhat overly polite and flattering, but he had seen this kind of person many times before, so he brushed it off.

He didn’t expect for Bai Yao to have such shallow eyelids. As soon as he sought connection with the Ren Family, he couldn’t wait to show off. MIJyKG

The way Bai Yao acted just now looked like he was trying to create an opportunity for Ren Xingliu and him. Now to see it in a new light, it was obviously the hope to see his joke.

Such a smug vile character, only because he had achieved status.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Bai Yao’s face was green. He wanted to defend himself, but unfortunately, there was no way to explain this.

He really hoped that Ren Xingliu would dump Bai Juanqiu as soon as possible, but in this situation, if he said this, others would not believe him and would only think that he was getting an advantage and acting like a good boy. SIdgLc

He truly had hope for Ren Xingliu to dump Bai Juanqiu as soon as possible, but with his current predicament, no one would believe his words, only taking him as someone who took advantage but still playing like he was the good guy.

It was even more impossible to say that their family was just using Bai Juanqiu. If this got out, it would only offend the Ren Family.

But if he didn’t defend himself, he would only offend Pei Xianzhi.

Now that both to advance or to retreat was impossible for Bai Yao. In a desperate attempt, he said listlessly, “Young Master Pei, you misunderstood. That wasn’t my intention…I really thought Young Master Ren was screwing around with my cousin, while being serious to you.” oUFkgT

The rest of the people couldn’t bear to listen to this anymore. “Bai Yao, that’s enough.”

“You are the one who introduced your cousin to Young Master Ren, right? Are you even qualified to talk?”

Bai Yao became increasingly anxious, sweating profusely from his forehead. He was in a hurry to fix things.

However, Pei Xianzhi didn’t give him a chance and said in a cold tone, “This is your Bai Family’s business. There’s no need to explain it to me.” eQ8Dbu

Pei Xianzhi was very well cultured, and if wasn’t out of true anger, he would seldom be so disrespectful towards others.

If he said so, other people would be even less polite, saying one after another, “Real thought, the Bai Family was pretty smart. Didn’t that mean they have a connection with the Ren Family now? Why didn’t I think of that?”

“It’s no use, you still have to pay the price.”

“That’s enough, the price he paid is his cousin…but Bai Yao sure is something, he was just bad mouthing his cousin.” dymFO3

Those people were trading words back and forth, deliberately ridiculing, “Bai Yao, we’re just joking. I hope you won’t mind.”

“Yeah, you’re on the verge of being Young Master Ren’s brother-in-law. We can’t afford to offend you.”

Bai Yao was accustomed to being a kiss-ass and was always striking water right and left. He has never run on a bank before. He blushed for a moment, wanting to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he didn’t know where to start.

He cursed internally at these people who looked at people to serve dishes. In time, once the Bai Family became a giant, he was going to show them. nCNrdm

However, in front of Pei Xianzhi, he didn’t dare to rage. After much consideration, he could only stifle a flattery smile, “Everyone overpraised. That wasn’t what happened.”

Unfortunately, everyone else was too lazy to talk to him anymore, so they turned around and started talking among themselves.

The center of the topic remained to be Ren Xingliu and Bai Juanqiu.

It wasn’t their fault. This news was so explosive that it was hard to keep it under the rug. FKtXif

“Speaking of which, I still can’t believe that Young Master Ren would get together with his blind date.”

Plus one, this isn’t like his style at all.”

“I heard that he is under a lot of pressure from his family, so I guess the pressure was just too much to take.”

“Then he has really decided to give up on Xianzhi now…” As soon as the man finished speaking, he was immediately surprised that he had made a mistake and quickly changed the end of the sentence abruptly, “I mean, he really wants to accept the family’s arrangement?” mp1Kzn

“Does that mean he has really decided to give up on Xianzhi…” As soon as this person wondered, he stopped speaking anymore out of turn. He quickly changed the end of his phrasing abruptly, “I mean, is he really going to accept his family’s arrangement?”

“It appears so. He even brought the person on campus.”

Translator: Teo

“But that doesn’t mean anything, right?” i13EN

As he was speaking, someone suddenly showed a baffled expression and said, “Wait, what is Young Master Ren doing?”

Bai Yao tried to interrupt several times, but was ignored. He felt bored and was about to find an excuse to leave. He happened to hear this and looked over with the others.

Bai Yao tried to interject a few times in the middle of the conversation, but to no avail as no one paid attention to him. Finding it pointless. As he was trying to find an excuse to leave, someone spoke out, and he looked towards the other table with the others. LTd5Vr

Then they saw…Ren Xingliu putting his meat into Bai Juanqiu’s plate.

Bai Yao: “?”

Everyone: “?”

How did the cool and domineering Young Master Ren become so sticky? tVD4fK

Was this the sour stench of love?

Actually, the true story went like this. When Bai Juanqiu went to get the food, he indeed didn’t hold back on the order, adding two portions of ham to his fried noodles. However, he gave this luxurious stir-fried noodle to Ren Xingliu.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Ren Xingliu was deeply moved. For reference, during his transmigration in the troubled time, those who shared food were ones with life-long friendship.

The situation wasn’t as serious now, but it was evident that Comrade Xiao Bai was a friend worth making. h5atyk

So, he picked up a pair of clean chopsticks and gave two pieces of meat to Bai Juanqiu. With a righteous expression, he said, “I’m not going to treat you unfairly either.”

Bai Juanqiu smiled. “Thank you.”

Just as he was about to eat, he suddenly caught a glimpse of those people looking over at them repeatedly. The atmosphere seemed a bit subtle.

Combined with the scene at the entrance, Bai Juanqiu noticed something unusual and asked casually, “What’s going on with them?” TCQAYb

Ren Xingliu and Bai Juanqiu had told each other when they made an appointment. When he asked about it, they naturally had nothing to hide. They ate noodles and said, “The one in the middle is Pei Xianzhi.”

When Ren Xingliu and Bai Juanqiu made this agreement, they had a mutual understanding. Hearing that question, Ren Xingliu naturally had nothing to hide. While eating his noodles, he said, “The one in the center is Pei Xianzhi.”

Bai Juanqiu understood at the mention of the name. Ren Xingliu was forced to go on blind dates by his family because of the trouble he had caused while pursuing this person.

It was no wonder that these people were looking at them with a strange look. Jdckyj

On the contrary, Ren Xingliu’s tone when mentioning Pei Xianzhi was too calm, completely unlike the rumor, where he pursued the other person to death.

Bai Juanqiu didn’t know what to think of this. He looked at Ren Xingliu and said with a smile, “Don’t you have anything to show when running into someone you like?”

“I haven’t liked it for a long time.” Ren Xingliu was very calm, but Bai Juanqiu’s words gave him some inspiration. He thought about it for a while, looked up and said with a smile, “Boyfriend, I think at this time, you You should show off!”

“I stopped liking him a long time ago.” Ren Xingliu was very frank, but Bai Juanqiu’s words gave him some inspiration. Pondering over this, he looked up and beamed. “Boyfriend, I think you should show off during a time like this.” aIKXqf

Bai Juanqiu was puzzled. “What?”

The light in Ren Xingliu’s eyes flickered. “It’s about time for you to eat vinegar.”

“This is a rare opportunity!” Ren Xingliu raised his eyebrows. “Whether we can become a hot topic in the melon seed eater group and how everyone precedes our love tonight will depend on your performance.”

Bai Juanqiu: “……”

He regretted asking into the details. As he was about to refuse, he saw the anticipating glow in Ren Xingliu’s eyes. Inexplicably, he nodded. “Alright.”

If it weren’t for the conditions, Ren Xingliu would have rubbed his hands like a fly. He showed off his ability to fool the emperor: “You can try slapping the table, and then look at me aggrievedly… Remember to swat harder, I’m afraid of them Can’t hear it.” unahQS

If it wasn’t for the condition not allowing it, Ren Xingliu would have rubbed his hands like a fly. He took out the ability in deceiving the Emperor in the past and said, “You can try smacking the table while looking at me with grievances… Remember to put force behind it so they can hear you.”

Bai Juanqiu: “………”

He quickly stopped Ren Xingliu’s bizarre idea, saying, “No need. I have an idea.”

Ren Xingliu looked at him skeptically. “Is your idea better than mine?”

Bai Juanqiu showed a serious look. “Perhaps.”

At such times, regardless of whether it was good or bad, one had to be brave and say yes. KJ4pCx

While they were working out the script, the people on the other side were still baffled by Ren Xingliu’s ‘intimate’ behavior.

“Why do I feel that Young Master Ren really likes this person? Was he ever this sticky?”

“It must be. Otherwise, with so many people going on the blind dates with Young Master Ren, why him of all people?”

Someone who was close to Pei Xianzhi immediately laughed disdainfully and said, “That’s hard to say. I don’t think Mr. Ren attaches much importance to this person. Don’t forget, when he pursued Xianzhi before, The food delivered is all flown from abroad, so why would you bring someone to the canteen?” 9WsrJI

There was one guy who had a good relationship with Pei Xianzhi, and he instantly sneered and said, “It’s hard to say. I don’t think Young Master Ren attaches importance to this guy. Haven’t you all forgotten, while he was pursuing Xianzhi, the food he sent was all air delivered from overseas. What does that say when he brings the guy to the food court?”

The others were taken aback by the facts.

If put like that, it made sense.

“Alright, let’s not dwell on the past.” Pei Xianzhi was weirdly annoyed when he heard this. He put down his chopsticks, then as he was about to get up and leave. I65qfG

Someone beside him gawked and exclaimed in surprise, “Look, what are they doing?”

The others followed his gaze once more and then saw…Bai Juanqiu scooped up a spoonful of soup, gently blew it and passed it to Ren Xingliu’s mouth.

Hand feeding in public?

An earthquake in their pupils!

Although Ren Xingliu used to be arrogant, he still had his morals. Why did he learn this kind of behavior that warrants hate now that he was dating? wdvyNB

Just how deep had he fallen for Bai Juanqiu?

For him to be this unrestrained???

  1. I wonder what will happen first: these two falling for each other or people actually believing that they’re dating.
