From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 157: Chapter 155: I Want to See Someone_1

"Have you ever drunk that stuff?" Fang Ren stared at her blankly and said, "Don't forget, you now have the physique of an ordinary person. If you drink too much, you'll definitely get drunk."

"Even though I've never tried it, I feel like I won't have any problems," Bai Qi said, unconcerned.

"Well... how about a bottle of light beer? Just to give you a taste," Fang Ren suggested.

"What's 'light beer'?" Bai Qi asked.

"It's a kind of beer for ladies, with a very small bottle and a low alcohol content, so you basically can't get drunk from it," Fang Ren explained.

"If you can't get drunk, then what's the point of drinking? I want to feel a bit tipsy," Bai Qi declared.

"Forget about it, if you get drunk, I'll have to take you back to the girls' dormitory. Buying you underwear was embarrassing enough; if I get you drunk and take you back, who knows what kind of rumors will spread," Fang Ren said.

"Alright then, boss, a bottle of light beer, please."

Before long, the owner brought over a small pink bottle of beer. Bai Qi opened it and took a sip, then her brows furrowed instantly.

"What's good about this stuff?"

"Anyone who hasn't drunk before would definitely find it bitter," Fang Ren said.

"So, if you drink a lot, it starts to taste good?"

"Hmm, most people start to like it after they drink more," he replied.

After hearing his words, Bai Qi took a few more sips from the bottle, still frowning. She decided to give up, feeling that this really wasn't for her.

"Hey, your cultivation level has improved really quickly," Bai Qi suddenly changed the subject and said.

"Did your butler tell you?" Fang Ren asked.

In his memory, Bai Qi knew at most that he was at the Peak of the Yuanxin Realm and was unaware of his breakthrough to the Mid-Stage of the Chongshan Realm.

However, just yesterday Su Sen suddenly came over to challenge him to a duel, and he had to use his cultivation. Even though it was just for a brief instant, it was enough for someone as powerful as Chen Cheng to see through at a glance.

Although he was afraid that the sudden increase in his cultivation level would arouse Chen Cheng's suspicion, he was no longer worried when Bai Qi made her breakthrough to the Xuanyang realm yesterday.

He could use this as his reason; if Bai Qi could sense the energy breakthrough in his body, then he could simply say he had a breakthrough because of Bai Qi, too.

"Ah? He doesn't even come out to talk to me," Bai Qi said: "It was during the Spiritual Root handover yesterday when I sensed your realm. I was surprised at that time. In just over a month, you had broken through to the Mid-Stage of the Chongshan Realm, while it took me five years just to break through the Chongshan Realm."

"Maybe it's the accumulation of fundamental strength," Fang Ren said offhandedly.

"Even with accumulation, it shouldn't be this exaggerated," Bai Qi gave him a look and said, "This is talent, a very powerful talent for cultivation."

"Could be," he replied.

"If you can maintain your cultivation speed like this, it won't take 30 years for you to surpass Brother Song," Bai Qi stated.

"Thirty years..."

Fang Ren shook his head with a smile, knowing he didn't have that much time.

Although his life these past few days seemed leisurely, he was actually cultivating tirelessly every day in class, including now as he ate with Bai Qi, with the True Qi continuously circulating within his body.

However, another breakthrough would require sufficient settling; after all, his realm had advanced too quickly and was still unstable.

As the meal was coming to an end, Bai Qi's expression suddenly became somewhat troubled.

Seeing her like this, Fang Ren asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing..."

Bai Qi was in a dilemma as he spoke.

"But no matter how I look at you, it seems like you have something on your mind."

"No, no."

Shaking his head like a ghost, Bai Qi then grabbed a small beer from the table and gulped it down, before putting the empty bottle on the table and saying, "Boss, bring two more bottles."

Fang Ren was taken aback; the girl had just said it tasted bad, so why had she suddenly drunk it all in one go? And she said she had no worries—stubbornly so.

"If you have a problem, just say it," Fang Ren said. "Maybe I can help you solve it too."

After drinking half a bottle of small beer in one go, Bai Qi felt a burning sensation in his stomach and said, "Wait for a moment, let me take two more sips, and then I'll tell you."

Gulp gulp—

Bai Qi picked up another bottle and drank it straight down, his face reddening at an inexperienced rate.

"Burp!"

After putting down the bottle, Bai Qi immediately covered his mouth with his hand and let out a burp.

Although the alcohol content was very low, drinking two bottles back to back could still go to one's head.

"Can you talk now?" Fang Ren asked as he saw her face flush with red, hastily saying.

"Not yet, just a little more."

Bai Qi said and drank another bottle of small beer head back.

Fang Ren across from him had a dumbstruck expression on his face; he had to get this girl back to the dorm quickly. Otherwise, there would definitely be all sorts of sensational rumors about him tomorrow.

After three bottles in quick succession, Bai Qi's face was even redder. She rubbed her stomach with one hand, feeling a burning sensation in her lower abdomen and a slight swelling in her vision.

"Okay, I think I can say it now." Bai Qi said with a flushed face, looking straight at Fang Ren.

"Alright, alright, just say it, before it turns into more gossip about me when I take you back later," Fang Ren said, waving his hand in resignation.

Bai Qi was still conflicted for a while before she finally spoke with a red face, "Actually... I heard last night that Brother Song will make an appearance in the final round of the Alchemy competition, and I really want to see him."

Her head was feeling dizzy now, and the words she had been afraid to utter were finally said with courage.

"Then go see him," Fang Ren said blankly, not understanding why Bai Qi needed to drink three bottles of small beer just to say something so trivial.

"But, but..."

Bai Qi continued, then laid her head directly onto the table.

Seeing her lying on the table, Fang Ren was stunned; he could already envision the scenes of being the subject of malicious gossip as he took Bai Qi back tomorrow.

"But, I'm your fiancée now, and if I meet another man behind your back and speak words of adoration, what would that be?" Bai Qi said, lying on the table.

"Well... actually, it's not that big of a deal," Fang Ren said with an awkward smile. "After all, we don't like each other, and although we can't annul the marriage, why not give each other some freedom?"

"Do you really... really think so?"

Bai Qi's voice was slow and gentle, sounding almost as if she were falling asleep.

"Of course, it's true," Fang Ren immediately said.

He hadn't even told her about his situation with Mu Huanqing yet.

"Then, can I... can I go to see Brother Song, I really want to meet him," Bai Qi mumbled in a daze.
