Gu Jiaojiao listened to the man’s words, her round eyes darting around thoughtfully.

“You don’t need to doubt it, and don’t make up stories. That old man is indeed my immortal master.”

“You say he’s your master, so he’s your master? I could say he’s my master too. How can you prove this stone is yours?”

In truth, Su Shuoci also hoped that the old man was Gu Jiaojiao’s master, but he feared that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Gu Jiaojiao thought that she would need to continuously bring out items from her space in the future, so she must find a suitable excuse.

Just as she was thinking this, someone delivered a pillow when she was sleepy. The man had seen the pendant before, so she might as well tell him that it was given to her by her immortal master.

Although Gu Jiaojiao despised the man for not recognizing the value of such a fine gemstone, calling it a worthless stone, she was too excited at the moment to care about such details. She leaned closer to the man’s ear and whispered.

“Look, food can come out of this stone.”

Using her mind, Gu Jiaojiao took out a pack of honey-glazed chicken legs and a pack of spicy lemon boneless chicken feet from her space.

Having experienced many storms, Su Shuoci’s heart trembled when he saw the chicken legs and feet in the young woman’s hands.

He covered her small hand with his large one, cautiously glanced at the door, and stammered in a low voice.

“Make sure… no one else sees this, not even my parents.”

“I’m not stupid. Why would I tell others? It’s your fault for not believing me. My master said I’m clever and beautiful.

He said we have a master-disciple bond, so he taught me the art of elemental transportation and some medical skills. These chicken legs and feet were given by my master.”

After spouting a bunch of nonsense, she managed to confuse the wise Su Shuoci, who momentarily had no doubts about her words.

Gu Jiaojiao was also afraid that Su’s mother might suddenly enter, so she spoke close to Su Shuoci’s ear.

Her soft whispers, accompanied by a gentle breath and a faint fragrance, entered Su Shuoci’s ears and nose.

Su Shuoci’s face turned slightly red, his heart pounded, and he felt an overwhelming joy, a sensation he had never experienced before.

Since he was injured during a mission, the military and his family had sought out numerous famous doctors for him.

All the doctors said his legs couldn’t be cured, which made him increasingly sensitive, gloomy, and irritable.

The old man had said he would fall into an abyss, and at the time, Su Shuoci had scorned the old man for being cryptic.

If you’re so capable, why do you need me to save you? Later, he not only fell but was also forced into a marriage.

He began to wonder if the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, the celestial match, was real.

Would there be a day when a celestial being would descend from the heavens to save him from the abyss…

“You eat the chicken leg, I’ll have the chicken feet.”

Seeing that the man had been silent for a long time, Gu Jiaojiao tore open the packaging of the chicken leg and handed it to him.

She then quietly walked over to close and bolt the door. The bowl of noodles she had for lunch had already been digested.

After bolting the door, she sat on the edge of the bed, savoring her favorite spicy lemon boneless chicken feet with great relish.

Su Shuoci watched her eat so earnestly and thought about offering her the chicken leg, but he felt he was being too hesitant.

If a celestial being wanted to eat, they could probably summon food anytime. Su Shuoci, who had been reluctant to believe in the existence of gods, now had no choice but to believe.

He had already taken a big bite of the chicken leg, a flavor he had never tasted before.

A product of the gods must be extraordinary; it was truly delicious.

Su Shuoci finished the chicken leg in a few bites and looked longingly at the celestial being across from him.

So beautiful, this was his wife.

Gu Jiaojiao had many more in her space, so she took the packaging from the man’s hand, tossed it into her space, and took out a braised pork trotter. She tore open the packaging and handed it to him.

Su Shuoci looked at the young woman before him, who could even throw trash into the sky?

Although she was a celestial being, the old man had said that the owner of the stone was his wife. Would the celestial being also like Song Zijin?

In a moment of impulsiveness, Su Shuoci tentatively asked, “Would you give Song Zijin these foods to eat?”

“Who is Song Zijin? Why would I give him food?” Gu Jiaojiao was thoroughly enjoying her meal.

So much so that she forgot she was now living in the world of a book, and Song Zijin was the male lead of this world.

Seeing that the man was silent and looked stunned, she covered her mouth with one hand.

Holy cow!

Could the man be suspecting something?
“Hehe, Song Zijin is no longer my fiancé, so…”

“You are now my wife, don’t talk about other men anymore.” Su Shuoci felt very uncomfortable hearing the word “fiancé.”

He quickly interrupted Gu Jiaojiao and emphatically stated that she was his wife.

“You’re crazy! I was eating happily, and you brought it up. You’re really sick~”

Gu Jiaojiao, not one to back down, growled fiercely. This man was seriously ill.

Looking at the pouting little wife before him, she was quite adorable.

Instantly, the depressive air in Su Shuoci’s heart dissipated. If this had happened before,

Anyone who said he was sick would have been beaten to a pulp by him.

But coming from the mouth of a celestial being, he could only accept it calmly.

Being half-paralyzed, wasn’t that a serious illness?
The two ate their delicious food in silence, especially Su Shuoci, who had never tasted chicken legs or pork trotters like these before.

He had seen raw chicken legs and pork trotters, and cooked ones too, but heavenly pork trotters and chicken legs were a first for him.

“Knock knock knock…”

“Son, is Jiaojiao awake?” The anxious voice of Su’s mother came from the door.

“Mom~ I’m awake, I’m changing clothes. Is it time to make dinner?”

Gu Jiaojiao had eaten a pack of chicken feet and a few nuts and was now drinking an Amx, feeling full of energy.

She was in such a good mood that her tone was particularly cheerful.

“Jiaojiao, take your time changing. I’ve already cooked the rice and am going to stir-fry some dishes. You can come out to eat soon.”

“Mom, Jiaojiao is hungry. You go ahead and stir-fry the dishes, we’ll be out soon.”

Su Shuoci calmly sent his mother away, as he had something to tell his celestial wife.

She didn’t understand the rules of the mortal world, and if she accidentally got scared off by some demons or ghosts, where would he find a wife then!
Gu Jiaojiao looked at the man in the wheelchair, his gaze now passionate, with none of the previous gloom and coldness.

“What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen a beauty before?”

“No… this is the first time… your so beautiful.”

Gu Jiaojiao: …

What the hell?

A chicken leg and a pork trotter were enough to win over a gloomy, handsome guy?
Well, it wasn’t such a bad idea. Having a handsome guy by her side would make for a beautiful sight wherever they went.

Gu Jiaojiao had advanced equipment and was absolutely confident she could cure the half-paralyzed man.

“From now on, you’ll follow me. I’m confident I can cure your legs.”

“Okay, I believe you.”

Gu Jiaojiao: …

She thought it would take a long time to convince him, but he just believed her like that?
“Jiaojiao, don’t just summon things out of nowhere. It might scare people. You don’t know how complicated human hearts can be…”
