Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

Chapter 31: 31: I Want You



Not far from the villa, there was a wholesale market.

The wholesale market was large, divided into several areas, such as the seafood wholesale market, fruit wholesale market, vegetable wholesale market, and so on.

After all, it was close to the Global Financial Center, which boosted the economy, so naturally, there were many traders.

Beyond the market, there was also a snack street nearby.

In this street, there were no big restaurants, just various snacks, food stands, and the like, catering to the bottom-wage class.

Of course, even some wealthy people liked to come here.

They were used to exotic delicacies and had somewhat taken a fancy to things like fried chicken tenders and stinky tofu.

In about half an hour, Ye Ling finished shopping and returned to the villa.

Besides vegetables and meat, Ye Ling also bought a bottle of red wine.

After all, it was a new home moving day, and with Liu Qiao'er, the great beauty, moving in, there was definitely a reason to celebrate!

"So soon?"

Liu Qiao'er was surprised to see Ye Ling return and said cheerfully.

As she spoke, Liu Qiao'er's slim belly suddenly emitted a rumbling sound.

Liu Qiao'er's cheeks flushed, and she looked at Ye Ling, whispering, "I'm hungry..."

She was already 24 this year, but in this manner, she was like a little girl—extremely cute and making one want to cherish her.

Ye Ling loved these kinds of genuine girls the most and laughed, "Haha, just wait a bit, the dishes will be ready soon!"

Having said that, Ye Ling went straight into the kitchen with his groceries.

Soon after, there were sizzling sounds, Ye Ling busily hustling about inside.

Wafts of fragrance drifted from the kitchen, and Liu Qiao'er closed her eyes, taking a deep breath.

"It smells so good..."

In the agonizing wait, four dishes finally made it to the table.

Yu Xiang shredded pork, sweet and sour carp, braised eggplant, and tender tofu, all placed in front of Liu Qiao'er without missing a single one.

Liu Qiao'er's eyes couldn't help but fill with emotion, "You really made all of these..."

"Of course, when the wife commands, can I not do it?" Ye Ling joked.

"Oh, who's your wife, don't talk nonsense," Liu Qiao'er retorted coyly.

Ye Ling immediately showed a smile, "Haha, try and see how my cooking is?"

Liu Qiao'er couldn't wait any longer, immediately picking up her chopsticks without hesitation and grabbed some Yu Xiang shredded pork.

It wasn't that she feared it wouldn't taste good—being a girl, that's just the attitude she should have.

Tomboys would be a discussion for another time.

"Mm, it's delicious!"

Liu Qiao'er's eyes widened, she continued to reach for more, nodding her little head vigorously.

"I really didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good, they're on par with professional chefs!"

Ye Ling blinked, this was his first attempt at cooking, was it really that tasty?

He took a small taste and nodded to himself, thinking he indeed had a talent for cooking!

It was like eating beef noodles—Ye Ling always felt the things on Earth were much tastier than those elixirs of the Immortal Realm.

"Come, today's a housewarming, and there's a wife, happiness comes in pairs, cheers!" Ye Ling raised his glass.

Liu Qiao'er didn't say much and clinked her glass with Ye Ling's, taking a modest sip.

They'd already kissed; what was in a title?

Moreover, Liu Qiao'er didn't really oppose the idea; she was just a bit shy.

"I'm so full..."

Having devoured all four dishes like a hurricane passing through, Liu Qiao'er patted her belly and spoke contentedly.

Ye Ling was at a loss; he had barely touched any of the four dishes himself.

Take the carp, for instance. It was nearly 3 pounds, and Liu Qiao'er had polished it off all by herself.

She was truly a glutton, a big glutton!

However, Ye Ling was still pleased. It proved that his cooking was delicious.

"Ye Ling, I want to ask you for a favor," Liu Qiao'er suddenly said.

"What is it?" Ye Ling asked.

Liu Qiao'er took a moment before speaking, "You're good at medicine, right? My father is a fisherman and has contracted a rare disease called Ichthyosis. We've visited many major hospitals over the years, and they all say it's incurable…"

As she said this, her eyes couldn't help but redden.

Over the years, they had spent all their savings on her father's medical treatment.

But if there was a chance to cure him, Liu Qiao'er was willing to borrow money to treat her father.

"Ichthyosis?"

Ye Ling frowned and pulled out his phone to search online.

Indeed, it was a rare disease, with only a dozen cases worldwide, mostly among fishermen.

It seemed to be contracted from prolonged contact with seawater.

Most critically… everyone diagnosed with this disease had died.

"No wonder this girl only cared about the salary, regardless of how tiring the work was. So this was why," Ye Ling thought to himself.

"I checked online, and there's no cure for this disease. I need to see your father's condition before I can figure out what kind of medicine to prepare," Ye Ling said.

"Can you cure it?"

Thinking of the divine efficacy of Ye Ling's elixirs like the Cold Pill and Menstrual Pill, hope shone in Liu Qiao'er's eyes.

She really had no other options and was grasping at straws, thinking that even if Ye Ling couldn't cure her father, maybe he could help him live a few more days.

In truth, Ye Ling was quite confident.

In his previous life, the Elixir Pills he refined could, upon ingestion, instantly regenerate a physical body even if only a single hair remained.

The diseases on Earth were really just a minor inconvenience to Ye Ling.

Ye Ling smiled slightly and asked, "Let's not talk about whether I can cure him or not. If I can, how do you plan to thank me?"

"I'll definitely work hard to pay you back!" Liu Qiao'er said.

She was really naive, still thinking Ye Ling was after money.

Ye Ling shook his head and said, "I can make money through other people, so forget about that."

Liu Qiao'er puzzledly asked, "Then what do you want?"

"I want you," Ye Ling winked.

Liu Qiao'er was taken aback, and her ears immediately heated up.

At that moment, an intense struggle was happening inside her heart.

She couldn't say she disliked Ye Ling, not at all.

But to say she liked Ye Ling wasn't quite right either, as they had only been together for a day.

In the end, Liu Qiao'er bit her lip and said seriously, "Alright, if you really can cure my father, I… I'll be yours."

"Ha-ha, we can talk about it when the time comes," Ye Ling suddenly laughed.

He was just joking; taking advantage of someone's misfortune was not something he would do.

Ye Ling had an unwritten rule in his heart—

Any woman he slept with had to genuinely like him.

Of course, Ye Ling hadn't avoided visiting brothels, but he always felt that those courtesans were far different from ordinary women.

With ordinary women, Ye Ling could feel their passion, their desire to become one with him.

With courtesans, however, Ye Ling only felt a kind of release.
