Chapter 158 – Single men and women, playing Pai Gow together

On the official road, a carriage sped by, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The driver was a stunningly beautiful woman with an ethereal and aloof demeanor, her face expressionless throughout the journey.

Every passerby who saw this woman driving was left in utter shock.

Who in their right mind would let such a fairy-like woman drive a carriage and eat dust?

Who else could it be?

Naturally, it was Meng Fan!

It's not that Meng Fan didn't know how to cherish beauty, but he cherished himself even more.

So, driving the carriage was naturally left to Ye Qingyu.

After all, Ye Qingyu had a favor to ask of him.

As for hiring a coachman, it was completely unnecessary.

If they brought a mortal along, who would end up taking care of whom?

"Senior Sister Ye, if you feel tired, just call out to me," Meng Fan shouted from inside the carriage.

"Call you, so you can drive?"

"I mean, if you're tired, call out to me so we can stop and rest for a while."

Ye Qingyu's lips twitched slightly.

Endure!

She was usually a very calm and composed person, but Meng Fan's actions were always so unconventional, unlike ordinary people, making it hard for her to stay calm.

For instance, in normal circumstances, wouldn't a man and a woman traveling together have the man eagerly driving the carriage?

But this guy shamelessly lay inside the carriage, saying that since he was invited, he naturally shouldn't have to work!

She thought it made some sense and obediently took the reins.

However, the longer she drove, the more annoyed she felt, but there was nothing she could do about Meng Fan.

She could only endure her frustration!

She kept reminding herself that when asking someone for a favor, this was the attitude to have.

Soon, night fell, and the carriage was still on the official road, with no towns or inns in sight.

Driving at night with poor visibility was risky.

They weren't afraid of danger, but if something happened to the horse, they'd have to continue on foot.

So, Ye Qingyu chose a spot to stop the carriage, planning to rest for the night before continuing.

Meng Fan took out some pastries from his storage ring, intending to share them with Ye Qingyu.

Ye Qingyu shook her head.

Meng Fan smiled and didn't insist, eating by himself.

Thirty-two tiles and four dice.

This was—[Pai Gow].

"Senior Sister Ye, the night is long, and we can't sleep. How about we play some Pai Gow?" Meng Fan said with a smile.

"Pai Gow? What's that?" She was clueless, looking at the wooden tiles with a puzzled expression.

But she was amazed that Meng Fan could create such intricate wooden pieces with a single flick of Sword Qi.

This level of control over Sword Qi and Divine Sense was beyond what a second-level Heavenly Origin Realm cultivator could achieve.

But remembering that she might not even be a match for Meng Fan, she calmed down.

Such a small trick was nothing.

"Pai Gow is a fun little game with wins and losses. The loser has to give Spirit Stones to the winner."

Meng Fan began explaining Pai Gow to Ye Qingyu.

After a while, Ye Qingyu understood.

She frowned and said, "Isn't this just gambling? I'm not interested!"

Moments later...

Although Ye Qingyu claimed she wasn't interested, she became increasingly engrossed in the game.

They played through the night.

The next day, Ye Qingyu continued driving the carriage with red eyes.

Meng Fan, on the other hand, happily pocketed over two hundred Spirit Stones into his storage ring.

"Senior Sister Ye, I think you're getting the hang of it. Tonight, you might win back everything you lost," Meng Fan shouted to Ye Qingyu, who was driving the carriage.

He was a bit cheeky!

Ye Qingyu drove without a word, ignoring Meng Fan.

She knew he was mocking her.

But deep down, she felt a bit indignant, convinced she could win it all back tonight!

How could she lose at such a simple "game"?

She wasn't stupid!

But Meng Fan had a completely different thought.

He thought this girl was as dumb as a rock and figured he could win a fortune tonight.

Having not rested or cultivated all night, Meng Fan began meditating to cultivate while Ye Qingyu drove.

"Whoa~~~~~"

The sound of Ye Qingyu reining in the horse jolted Meng Fan awake.

Meng Fan lifted the curtain and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
