Chu Li saw Su Ru out and when he returned, most of the dishes were taken away with only two left to go with the wine.
Xue Ling had taken away the dishes to warm them up again.
Chu Li smiled and shook his head. Xue Ling may come across as cold and proud, but she was truly meticulous and good in her work. This left him speechless but all in all, he could only adapt to it.
Shortly, Xue Ling served up the piping hot dishes once more and they smelled good.
Chu Li put down his wine cup and started eating.
While he ate, he kept thinking about the Sentient Menace.
As Xue Ling returned to his side after she washed up the plates, Chu Li suddenly asked her, "Xue Ling, do you have any dharmic base?"
"No, I don't." Xue Ling shook her head.
"Can you read then?"
"Yes, of course!"
"Can you read Buddhist Scriptures?"
"I should be?" Xue Ling nodded her head. "Though, Master, I don't believe in Buddhism!"
