Chapter 239 - 239 It’s Hard to Get Through This Alone

Bai Chuwei was generous not because she wanted to be, but because she felt the item had no real use.

That cloth bag could at best be considered the most basic kind of space artifact, capable of holding at most a thousand kilograms—essentially, a portable refrigerator.

Her ancestor could create hundreds of them with a flick of his wrist.

In her eyes, that cloth bag was not much different from the plastic bags outside, and it was pointless to want it back. She regarded it as a gift to Cao Jinhai, who actually had quite a decent character.

Cao Jinhai was shocked and watched Bai Chuwei with fearful respect, nodding continuously, “Thank you, Fairy Bai, thank you, Fairy. Once the junior makes money from the recipes, he’ll transfer half of it to you.”

Bai Chuwei smiled faintly, “Sure.”

She casually agreed and turned to push the door open, walking outside.

As soon as Bai Chuwei stepped out, the crowd that had been squatting outside couldn’t help but peek inside.

It was just too fragrant; they couldn’t resist.

When they looked inside—

A group of people: “???”

What’s going on? Where’s the food?

The completely bewildered restaurant manager said dumbly, “This… This couldn’t possibly be because the dish was so delicious that they even ate the plates, could it?”

Cao Jinhai, flushed and excited, cursed with disdain, “You all know shit, you understand nothing!”

Their Cao Family had struck luck!

They had encountered a real big shot.

Oh no—most importantly, they should thank his son, thank Cao Yushu for seeking Bai Chuwei for medical treatment; only then did the Fairy remember their family was into cooking, and then they struck it rich.

Cao Jinhai immediately took his phone and sent a WeChat message to Cao Yushu.

As Cao Yushu, who was doing homework at home, saw the message from his dear dad:

“My son, you are truly the life-saving angel of our family, having gotten acquainted with Fairy Bai. You’re about to take the college entrance exam, right? Tell your dear father, what would you like to eat? Dongpo pork, braised chicken in brown sauce, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, jade green fish balls…”

Cao Yushu swallowed his saliva upon seeing the names of the dishes, nearly bursting into tears.

Dear dad, you haven’t come home for half a month, and finally, you remember you have a son about to take the college entrance exam, in need of nutritional supplements?@@novelbin@@

It was supposed to rain heavily today, but Bai Chuwei, not in the best of spirits, changed it to a sunny day and went back to Yunwu Mountain. However, she didn’t return to her home halfway up the mountain but went straight to the summit.

At the mountain’s peak, the sea of clouds rolled, and the mist was vast and boundless, resembling a celestial abode of immortals.

On the edge of the mountain top was a stone table, smooth on the surface but with completely uneven edges.

Bai Chuwei set up the entire table with twenty-eight dishes prepared by Cao Jinhai, and took out a small gourd, adding her recently brewed Peach Blossom Elixir into a wine cup, instantly filling the air with an alluring fragrance that teased the senses.

Bai Chuwei poured some wine into an empty seat across from her and laid out a pair of chopsticks and a bowl.

She picked up the chopsticks, ate the dishes, and occasionally took a sip of wine.

Tsk, the wine was truly intoxicating!

Bai Chuwei’s usually pale face gradually showed a hint of rosy flush.

She propped her chin and looked at the empty seat opposite her, “Tell me, was your death miserable? Incinerated without a trace, not even a tombstone left.”

Bai Chuwei, slightly tipsy, prattled on as she poured herself more wine, “Look at you, over these five thousand years, if it weren’t for me remembering your death anniversary, who the hell would know you died today?”

Perhaps the Peach Blossom Elixir was too intoxicating, as Bai Chuwei suddenly felt a wave of discomfort, “Who told you I wanted to be an immortal tortoise? I’ve lived for over five thousand four hundred years, am I not tired? Everyone can die but not me.”

Bai Chuwei leaned forward on the stone table, suddenly crying out, “It’s so hard to endure alone…”
