"Keeping the guests waiting."
The midday sunshine in the small courtyard is clean and warm.
Jia Mingan was holding two stacks of side dishes in his hands. Before anyone entered, the voice had already reached Yun Ranmo's ears in the room.
After entering the room and putting the food on the table, Jia Mingan looked at the girl in green sitting opposite and spoke with a smile.
"It's a small place and there isn't much good food. Miss Ran Mo, please bear with me."
"No way, it's me who bothered you today."
The yellow flag in Yun Ranmo's hand was already leaning against the wall, while she herself sat upright in front of the dining table with a meticulous expression.
Seeing that Jia Mingan, the master, had finally arrived, the expression on her face relaxed.
"Although you seem to be in a good mood at this time, I still want to remind you that you helped me just now..."
"It's serious, I know, but let's eat first."
Jia Mingan waved his hand, and then pointed to the food on the table.
"Girl, try my handiwork first."
Seeing that the expression on the face of the girl in front of him seemed to be a little unhappy because of his attitude, the young man could only helplessly explain.
The originally bright expression also became dim.
"I'm just an ordinary person in a remote county. To me, the cause and effect of some unparalleled demon is about the same as Daqian's demise tomorrow."
"No matter what I did, I couldn't change the outcome."
"In this case, I might as well make myself happy, why should I live in fear and sadness every day?"
"Even if I really die tomorrow, Miss Ran Mo, do you still want me to be sad and scared before I die?"
Originally, Yun Ranmo was dissatisfied with Jia Mingan's perfunctory attitude towards matters of karma and fate, but after hearing the explanation at this time, the girl's face immediately showed some self-blame.
After all, the innocent boy in front of her was in big trouble just because of her own kindness.
Nowadays, the kind-hearted man named Jia Mingan in front of him is so high-spirited, full of hope, and living a positive life.
How could she pour cold water on her at this moment...
After all, no matter what, now, she owes the boy in front of her a favor.
"Bah, bah, bah, you are talking nonsense about dying."
"Please trust me, I will ensure your safety!"
Yun Ranmo frowned slightly, and then his delicate little face showed a bit of softness.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's eat first."
"Before dinner, Miss Ran Mo..."
Seeing that the girl's expression had softened, Jia Mingan also smiled a little.
"Miss Ran Mo, can you please stop calling me Your Excellency? It sounds weird to me."
Jia Mingan frowned slightly, but there was a hint of smile in his eyes.
"Eh? Then what should I call you?"
"Just call me Ming'an from now on."
Because of what just happened, the girl just thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement with Jia Mingan's words.
"In that case, I will call you Ming'an from now on."
A slight smile appeared on the girl's flawless face.
"Ming'an, you are a very good person."
"Haha, thank you Ran Mo for your compliment."
The smile on the girl's face faded. She didn't know if it was an illusion. She always felt that there was something wrong with the conversation just now.
But soon, she had no extra time to think about the conversation just now.
"Come on, Ran Mo, eat more of this dish."
"Come on, come on, eat some of this meat too."
Although there were only two people eating, Yun Ranmo always felt like he was eating like a table of eight relatives.
After a while, Jia Mingan used his chopsticks to pile a small mountain in the girl's bowl.
"Ming'an, I can't finish eating anymore."
Yun Ranmo looked at the young man in front of her helplessly. She felt that the Jia Mingan in front of her was so enthusiastic that she wanted to put all the food in her bowl.
"All right."
Jia Mingan shrugged indifferently. His goal had been achieved anyway, and there was little point in adding food.
To be honest, he didn't expect that he could coax the girl in front of him home so easily.
However, after spending less than an hour together, he felt that he had almost figured out the character of the girl in front of him.
He has a serious personality, even a bit rigid, and is not good at rejecting other people's kindness.
It always feels like it’s really easy to cheat...
Jia Mingan glanced up and down at Yun Ranmo who was eating opposite him. Although there was a lot of food in the bowl, the girl still ate in small bites.
It can be seen that the girl is very well-educated. She chews slowly and slowly. She has a green robe tied around her waist and two playful ponytails beside her shoulders.
As if sensing that the boy opposite was looking at him, Yun Ranmo raised his eyes and looked blankly at Jia Mingan with his eyes as pure as black jade.
"Ming'an, what's wrong? There are grains of rice on my face?"
The girl quickly touched her face with her hands, but unfortunately she couldn't touch anything.
"It's nothing, I'm just feeling a little emotional."
Jia Mingan smiled, maybe this was a treasure specially given to him by God.
Looking at the girl in green in front of him, he just felt like the more he looked at her, the more he liked her.
He is seventeen years old in this life, and is about to get married...
If I could really be tricked into going home and becoming a wife, I would laugh out of my dreams.
"Ran Mo, you are walking alone in the world, aren't you afraid of encountering any danger?"
While eating, the young man pretended to casually pick up a topic.
"Don't worry, my master has placed a ban on me, and my senior brothers and sisters also gave me many Taoist artifacts and treasures!"
Yun Ranmo smiled sheepishly. Every time she mentioned this, she always felt like she was showing off.
"Don't worry, you must know that my master is a master on par with Demon Lord Slave, so with me here, I will definitely be able to protect you!"
When Jia Mingan heard this, his expression became a little more serious.
Although he said he didn't care about the trouble he got into, he was still a little worried in his heart.
But after listening to Yun Ranmo's words, he felt more confident.
After all, as long as he can deceive the girl in front of him, not only will his cultivation level be improved, but he will also be able to prostitute an invincible master for free.
Thinking of this, Jia Mingan couldn't help but feel a little better.
"By the way, I still don't know what you are doing in Qinghe County, Ran Mo."
"It can't be because of that scarf, right?"
Jia Mingan laughed, which was a rare joke.
Perhaps because the question was too sensitive, Yun Ranmo, who was concentrating on eating, rarely put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands and looked at the young man opposite him seriously.
"Ming'an, as I said before, I am a fourth-level Taoist cultivator of fate. I know fate and cause and effect."
Jia Mingan nodded cooperatively. He had heard this from the girl on the street before.
"To tell you the truth, I came to Qinghe County this time to slay demons!"
"Exorcism?"
Jia Mingan frowned, looking surprised.
Yun Ranmo also nodded solemnly.
"Yes, fate told me that there is a monster in your Qinghe County who has the face of a human and the heart of an animal, and is good at playing right and wrong."
"Now I am planning to come here to bring justice to the world and kill demons!"
"Master said that this demon is the catastrophe of my destiny cultivation. If I can kill the demon and eliminate it, I can advance to the fifth level of destiny cultivation."
When Jia Mingan heard this, his face froze. Why did the devil's introduction sound familiar?
"Ming'an, don't worry."
Yun Ranmo didn't know anything else, but when he saw Jia Mingan's face in front of him looked a little ugly, he thought he was worried that he didn't have the energy to protect his safety.
Now, because of her, Jia Mingan is affected by the cause and effect here, and his life is in danger. This is the reason.
Then she needs to try her best to protect Jia Mingan, that is Guo!
She lives to cultivate one lineage, knows destiny, and cultivates cause and effect. She only wants to have a clear conscience and cause and effect does not occupy her body...
Later, he transformed into an immortal and ascended to immortality...
So the girl stared at Jia Mingan in front of her seriously and spoke softly...
"Ming'an, if you die, it will definitely be after I die!"
"I will always be by your side to protect you until you are no longer safe."
