Upon hearing Ye Tian's inquiry, Nie Qingzhu couldn't help but smile:

"Nothing happened!"

"Isn't Grandpa always like this?"

"He can argue with others even when there's nothing going on!"

Ye Tian was quite familiar with Old Man Nie's fiery temperament, so when he heard Nie Qingzhu say this, he didn't ask further.

"Oh... by the way, Qingzhu!"

"I think I heard you mention someone called Young Master Chen..."

"Who is Young Master Chen?"

Ye Tian's curiosity about Young Master Chen was unexpected, and Nie Qingzhu was about to answer with a sweet smile when suddenly, a voice came from not far away:

"Qingzhu!"

Compared to Ye Tian's rather ordinary voice, this male voice was entirely different. It was steady and powerful, magnetic, and exuded a mature aura, as if it possessed an invisible charm that struck directly at the heart, easily drawing people in.

Hearing someone call Qingzhu's name, Ye Tian instinctively turned his gaze to the source of the voice, and what he saw left him frozen.

The newcomer was a man dressed in a moon-white embroidered long robe, with hair as white as snow. His presence was imposing, his appearance dignified and graceful, with eyes like stars and eyebrows like crescent moons. Every gesture exuded a unique allure.

Not only was he handsome and elegant, but his gaze was also incredibly profound. The warm and charming smile on his face made it easy for people to feel a sense of closeness.

Such a handsome and dashing man left Ye Tian in disbelief. In all his life, he had never imagined that a man could be so strikingly good-looking.

As Ye Tian stared at the man before him, stunned by his handsome and ethereal appearance, Nie Qingzhu also noticed the newcomer. Her beautiful eyes lit up with an indescribable joy:

"Young Master Chen!!"

With a hint of delight and excitement, Nie Qingzhu, like a joyful bird, quickly approached Young Master Chen, happily greeting him:

"Young Master Chen, did you come for tofu pudding again this morning?"

Seeing Nie Qingzhu's eyes full of surprise, Young Master Chen didn't immediately respond. Instead, his gaze shifted slightly to Ye Tian. It was just a normal glance, yet at that moment, Ye Tian suddenly felt a chill surge from deep within his body, as if coldness was enveloping him from all directions. His scalp tingled, and his hair stood on end.

This... this is the Young Master Chen Qingzhu mentioned?

Who is this person? Why did just one look make him tremble all over, unable to move?

A bead of sweat rolled down Ye Tian's forehead, and if someone were to observe him closely at this moment, they would notice the veins bulging on his forehead. He wanted to move, but his body wouldn't respond, no matter how much strength he mustered.

However, the intimidation came and went quickly. As Young Master Chen's gaze shifted away, Ye Tian finally realized he could move again. Rising from adversity, as the Child of Destiny, Ye Tian's alertness was unmatched. Without the oppressive intimidation, he suddenly stood up, knocking over the table and tofu pudding in front of him.

"Who exactly are you?"

"Why have you come to Lieyang City?"

The sudden change left Nie Qingzhu bewildered. She instinctively looked at Ye Tian:

"Brother Ye Tian... what's wrong with you?"

"Qingzhu... come here! Stand behind me!"

"This person in front of you is very dangerous!"

Dangerous? Now Nie Qingzhu was even more confused. Who was Brother Ye Tian referring to as dangerous?

But before Nie Qingzhu could react, Young Master Chen had already sat down at an empty spot with a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, as if he were oblivious to the tension:

"Is Lieyang City not open to guests from afar?"

Hearing Young Master Chen speak and seeing Ye Tian's tense and guarded expression, Nie Qingzhu finally realized who Brother Ye Tian was nervous about. She couldn't help but find it amusing.

But in the next moment, Nie Qingzhu quickly reassured Ye Tian:

"Brother Ye Tian... don't be nervous!"

"This is the Young Master Chen I mentioned earlier!"

"He's not a bad person!"

"He's my savior!"

Not a bad person? Qingzhu's savior?

Ye Tian didn't lower his guard because of her words. He continued to watch Young Master Chen warily.

However, Young Master Chen paid no mind to Ye Tian's hostile gaze. Instead, he looked at Nie Qingzhu and smiled slightly:

"Qingzhu... just like always!"

"Like always? Alright, I understand!"

Having known him for quite some time, Nie Qingzhu naturally understood what Young Master Chen meant. She quickly turned to her grandfather:

"Grandpa... Young Master Chen wants a serving of scallion oil tofu pudding!"

"Got it!"

Old Man Nie seemed not to think much of Young Master Chen. After preparing a serving of tofu pudding and placing it in front of him, he spoke directly:

"Kid... finish this tofu pudding and leave quickly!"

"........."

Before Young Master Chen could respond, Nie Qingzhu, seeing her grandfather's cold attitude, felt a bit upset and couldn't help but softly criticize him:

"Grandpa... what are you saying!"

"Young Master Chen is my savior; how can you speak to him like that!"

"Even if he's just a regular customer, you shouldn't tell someone to leave right after eating!"

Seeing his granddaughter seemingly enamored with Young Master Chen and constantly speaking up for him, Old Man Nie felt a twinge of helplessness. However, he didn't respond, merely glanced at Young Master Chen, snorted coldly, and continued with his work at the stall.

Knowing her grandfather's temperament, Nie Qingzhu didn't dwell on it. She then turned to Young Master Chen with a happy expression:

"Young Master Chen... the scallion oil tofu pudding is ready!"

"Eat it while it's hot,"

"Otherwise, it won't taste the same when it cools!"

"Alright... thank you for the reminder, Qingzhu!"

Young Master Chen didn't mind the small stall, picking up a spoon to taste the tofu pudding. Then, with a slight smile, he looked at Nie Qingzhu:

"Old Nie's craftsmanship is excellent,"

"But I still think the scallion oil tofu pudding made by Qingzhu is even better!"
