So strands of Xi Ma's long hair is sticking out all over the place and a part of his face has black and white paint aligned as tiger stripes. There are also so on his robes.
"What happened to you?" Lou Ren questioned Xi Ma's weird appearance. "Did you went out of the Mortal Domain?" he added with a smirk, just doing a wild guess.
Lou Ren is also able to confirm that his friend seems to badly need the rest. He curiously peeked at Xi Ma, wondering what he plans to do because they seldom need the rest as Keepers.
With a dark face, "Not really. Just do not ask more to it." Xi Ma replied, not really interested to tell Lou Ren that he is stupid enough to barge into soone's ho, steal they are dried up white flowers that were created a necklace to be placed on deity's small status.
The paint as well on Xi Ma's face was because he got his arrival aim wrong when he was trying to teleport back to the Wei courtyard and he accidentally saw a bunch of beings placing the paints as part of a ceremony.
So might ask why looking for white flowers is a big deal. That is because aside from the fact that the growing white flowers in the Mortal Domain are not in season, white flowers are mostly used to filter spiritual impurities, making them very limited. Even the small ones.
Even though that is the case and the one that he got are originally dry, he can always use a little magic to revive them for a very short period of ti. Xi Ma just hopes that it will be enough to satisfy Wei Jiayi.
He needs to blend for a mont before he sneaked out of the place.
"Hmm..." Wei Jiayi took the flowers and looked at them with a frown. "So small." He comnted unhappily.
Xi Ma smiled knowingly before replying, "Master, you never ntion how big they are supposed to be." He waved his hand to the flowers, chanting a spell softly to turn the small flowers to bigger ones. "Are they now good enough?" he asked.
Wei Jiayi nodded, instead of responding, he stiffened, his brows wrinkled deeply. He is looking at the entrance of the dining room with alertness. His nose twitches as he tried to endure the revolting sll that is coming their way.
The horrid sll that is like a rotten egg is getting closer. Wei Jiayi was not able to take action as Gao Lan i with her mother arrived at the entrance of the dining room.
At that ti, Lou Ren realized that they got distracted by the 'date' thing before they are able to warn Wei Jiayi with Gao Lan i's nonexistent talent in cooking.
Gao Lan i is holding a covered porcelain bowl with both hands. They can bet that the horrible is coming from it.
Lou Ren and Xi Ma dreadfully looked at Li Mao who just ignored them. 'Madam, are you trying to kill our master?' their eyes asked silently.
Both mother and daughter's face is stoic, not even giving any hint if they were able to sense the unpleasant sll.
The only expression that has shown on the won's faces after arriving in the dining room is confusion.
"What is the aning of these?" Gao Lan i asked. "This looks like a date." She comnted on seeing the candles and flowers. Noting as well the small round table in the middle of the dining room, with neatly arranged plates for two beings.
Li Mao raised a brow before asking, "Date? What does that an?" she asked Gao Lan i, finding the ambiance of the room strange and warm at the sa ti.
Gao Lan i smiled, "It is like courting from the other universe. Do not worry, probably Wei Jiayi have other plans mother. So we need to watch out." She added as she quickly glanced at Wei Jiayi suspiciously.
"This is a date." Wei Jiayi uttered gritting his teeth.
