Chapter 653: The Medicine and Food Competition

Confronted with a great beauty like Cui Ruyun, no man could remain unmoved, and even Chen Xuan, upon seeing her at this moment, couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart.

However, Chen Xuan quickly suppressed such emotions.

In his heart, he just wished to consider Cui Ruyun as a common friend.

"Have a seat," Cui Ruyun said softly.

In front of others, Cui Ruyun always exuded an air of effortless grace and adaptability, but in front of Chen Xuan, she was all tenderness, like a young girl inexperienced in the ways of the world, with an indescribable shyness.

Chen Xuan and Cui Ruyun sat opposite each other.

Under the candlelight, Cui Ruyun was enchanting and alluring, her red lips tempting; the orange glow of the candlelight cast upon her, making her look like a beauty stepping out from a beautiful dream, possessing an ineffable charm.

Looking at the familiar man in front of her, Cui Ruyun, who usually handled herself with ease, felt a bit of trepidation, unsure of what to say.
