Chapter 474: Stealing a Midnight Break
Chapter 474: Stealing a Midnight Break
Time flies, and it’s half a month again.
In the evening, after everyone had rested, Li Qing sat cross-legged alone on the top of the peach tree.
It can also be said that it is the pinnacle of the world.
115,499 meters is the vertical height of the peach tree.
In terms of length, the gourd vine is much longer than the peach tree.
The cool moon hangs high in the sky, and a gentle breeze blows.
From Li Qing's current position, the moon seemed very low, and it even felt like he could reach out and grab the moon.
Today, Li Qing did nothing but thought with his chin supported by one hand.
After an unknown amount of time, he felt a little more weight on his shoulders.
Li Qing's thoughts were interrupted, but he was not annoyed. Instead, he smiled slightly.
"Coming!"
"Yes! Lord Qing!"
There is only one person who can come at this time and call him like that.
Leafa, the leader of the flower elves.
Li Qing tilted his head slightly, glanced at little Leafa, and then smiled slightly.
"Master Qing, what are you laughing at?"
Leafa's clear voice rang in my ears, like the sound of a yellow oriole in March.
"I thought Leafa was funny, so I laughed!"
Li Qing answered truthfully.
"Thank you for the compliment!"
Leafa thanked him, her tone very cheerful.
Nowadays, the entrance to the hometown of flower elves has been moved to the crown of the peach tree, mainly to make it easier for them to collect peach nectar.
At this time, Leafa took out some things from her pocket. They were foods she had specially prepared. There were a wide variety of them, including cold dishes, hot dishes, fresh fruits, even preserved fruits, and finally some drinks.
What's interesting is that the food has two sizes: one is based on the normal human meal size, and the other is Leafa's standard size.
Looking at the small table in front of him full of delicious food, Li Qing asked curiously.
"Why don't you get bigger? Didn't you learn [Size as You Want]?"
Leafa did not answer immediately. Instead, she took out the cushion that had been refined by Li Qing, sat upright, and then spoke softly.
"After midnight, it will be my birthday. I...I want to use my real body to invite Master Qing to taste the food I cook."
Leafa seemed to think that the request was excessive, and her voice became softer and softer as she spoke, and she lowered her head.
Leafa felt that she was really disappointing. Even at this point, she was still timid.
"this one?"
Li Qing asked suspiciously.
"Ok!"
Leafa answered in a voice as soft as a mosquito's hum.
"My pleasure!"
Li Qing smiled.
Then, he was the first to pick up the chopsticks and tasted the cold dish.
"not bad!"
Li Qing praised.
"Thank you! Lord Qing!"
Leafa stood up to thank him, then picked up the pot of drink and filled Li Qing's glass.
She knew that Lord Qing did not drink alcohol, so she specially prepared the drinks. The reason why they had to be prepared was that many drinks would turn into wine once they fermented if left for a long time.
I have to say that the head of the clan is still very careful.
"Thank you, Chief Leafa! Happy birthday!"
Li Qing said with a smile.
"Thank you!"
Leafa thanked her again.
Suddenly, Li Qing found it very funny.
"Let's not thank each other too much. We have been friends for more than ten years. Let's be more casual."
Li Qing suggested softly.
"it is good!"
Leafa agreed.
She also felt that it became awkward to keep thanking people over and over again.
Returning to her seat, Leafa filled her own small glass with drink and raised it.
"I respect you!"
Ding--
Li Qing picked up the cup and clinked it with Leafa's. The cups collided, making a pleasant sound.
After eating for a while, Leafa picked up a piece of candied fruit and fed it to Li Qing.
Although he didn't say "open your mouth" like Tiantian did, the meaning was that it could not be refused.
"You are the clan leader. Wouldn't it be unworthy of your status if you do this?"
Li Qing asked with a smile.
Leafa didn't answer, but stuffed it directly into his mouth while he was laughing.
"This is our etiquette. Only the most precious guests receive this kind of treatment."
Leafa explained quietly.
"That's it!"
Li Qing suddenly realized, without thinking too much, and continued to taste the delicious food made by Leafa.
When it comes to cooking skills, Leafa is probably the best cook among everyone he knows.
Thinking of this, Li Qing couldn't help but think of another extreme. She seemed to have been cursed by the God of Cooking.
Good Dream House.
Nohara Lin, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly shivered and woke her up.
"what happened?"
She stood up and looked around in a daze, but when she saw nothing, she lay back down and fell asleep again in a few seconds.
In fact, Leafa just lied.
She just wanted to feed Lord Qing, but she couldn't say it directly, so she had to find this excuse.
As the clan leader, she was very tired, and this was a rare moment of relaxation for her. Therefore, she would occasionally be bolder in front of Lord Qing.
“Why celebrate at night?”
Li Qing asked.
At times like this, Li Qing usually wouldn't think too much and would just say whatever came to his mind.
"I have things to do during the day, and there are few people at night. I just want to celebrate with Master Qing. I..."
At this point, Leafa realized that she had let the cat out of the bag, so she quickly shut up and took several bites of the food, trying to cover up her embarrassment.
“Being the clan leader is really hard!”
Li Qing made a comment.
"It's not that hard, hehe..."
Leafa replied with a bit of embarrassment.
However, when she found that there was nothing abnormal with Lord Qing, she gradually returned to normal.
After a while, Leafa started talking about her childhood, and from her tone, she seemed to miss that time very much.
"At that time, I played everywhere all day long. There was no activity in our area that I didn't know. I won the title of flying champion many times. Oh! Why did the previous generation of the clan leader take a fancy to me? How could a wild girl like me be like a clan leader..."
Most of the time, it was Leafa who was talking and Li Qing who was listening, and only occasionally would she respond to show that she was listening.
While chatting, I don’t know if it was the food that was delicious but accompanied by the stories, or the stories that accompanied the food, but before I knew it, the cups and plates were empty.
So, Li Qing decided to make some more on the spot. Although they were not afraid of the cold, it was better to eat something hot in this December weather.
Hot pot.
It is a good choice. When you want to eat, just order some vegetables or meat. When you want to talk, you can put down your chopsticks.
Anyway, tonight she is not the leader of the flower elves for the time being, she is just a person celebrating her birthday, just a person who needs company, just a person who wants to talk.
It's my birthday! It's a rare opportunity to let loose.
Since it was her birthday, she had to have a birthday present. Li Qing took out the spiritual silk and made a set of home clothes for her on the spot. I heard from Leafa before that she usually wore more serious clothes because of the affairs of the tribe.
Therefore, she prefers homely and casual clothes, which can make her feel more relaxed.
"How is it, Master Qing!"
Leafa put on new clothes, turned around in front of Li Qing, and asked for Li Qing's opinion.
"not bad!"
Li Qing said softly.
Stories, delicious food, moonlit night, cool breeze, and two people.
