They burst into laughter after a moment of pause, Shen Tianyu closing the doors of their private room behind them.

"There's so much gold in here, my eyes hurt." Shen Tianyu complained lightheartedly as she sat down at the table in the center of the room.

"Gosh, look at you rich girl, being spiteful of gold, you know some people would kill just for one piece in here." Bai Yaoxuan sat opposite her.

"Aiya, don't be jealous, I could buy you more useful things than these. Speaking of which, how are you feeling nowadays? The poison in your body should be gone now." Shen Tianyu experimented with slumping down in her seat but thought better of it and corrected her posture the next instant.

"Yeah, I feel much better. I can feel the spirtual energy gathering when I try to meditate now but it still leaks from my dantian pretty fast." 

"Mm. I'll have a doctor come look at your condition more in depth and heal your dantian. You have to wait after your exam though."

"I'm fine either way honestly. As long as I can cultivate."

"It's harder to gain a footing within the 'surface' world when you don't have a background of a sect or School. Even if you won't gain much from the institution itself, there are other benefits attached to it. Like gaining connections, solidifying your background, student discounts, and maybe even obtaining a good weapon." 

"What are you selling the School to me for? I already said I was going to take the exam, didn't I? I don't know if I'd be able to pass though."

"You say it like I don't know the reasons behind your efforts. If you want to go somewhere, obviously you'll put more effort in going there." Shen Tianyu side-eyed her companion. Bai Yaoxuan burst into another bout of laughter. 

A knock sounded at the door of their private room along with the voice of their waiter. "Young Misses, I have your Pu'er tea and our restaurant's specialty here. May I bring them in now?"

"Yes, bring them in!" Shen Tianyu raised her voice, stretching her neck to see what would be brought in before the door even opened. Bai Yaoxuan copied her, expectations shining in her eyes.

"Wow, the food smells so good!" Bai Yaoxuan exclaimed as she gulped down her saliva.

"As expected, eating out is the best option!" Shen Tianyu wiped her salivating mouth on a napkin and got up. "Give me your bowl, we'll drink some soup first." She held her hand out to Bai Yaoxuan, urging her to hand over her bowl.

"Wait no, let me do this, I'm the one living off oyu, at least let me do this much." Bai Yaoxuan got up in a panic, shielding her bowl so it wouldn't be taken away.

"Then I won't be polite, you laddle the soup." Shen Tianyu gave uo right away, smoothing down her skirt as she sat down.

"How come you gave up so easily today?" Bai Yaoxuan huffed in laughter as she first laddled soup into Shen Tianyu's bowl.

"How can I not understand you? Everytime something like this happens, it really devolves into a  fight if I don't give in." Shen Tianyu thanked the other as she took back her bowl with two hands. 

"Wow, the food here really is delicious. I want to eat this food everday." Bai Yaoxuan exclaimed in bliss as she bit off a piece of chicken marinated with soy sauce, her other hand still holding onto her bowl of soup.

As they ate, the two girls gradually calmed down even as they inhaled the food as if they had been starved their whole life. 

"So, what was it about the 'welcome' you said that girl did? the one we met outside." Bai Yaoxuan remebered her earlier glare and directly asked her older sister.

Shen Tianyu sighed as she paused her chopsticks. "Nothing really. Just, remember my bathouse needed repairing?" Bai Yaoxuan nodded silently. "Uh... someone attacked me as I was getting dressed." Shen Tianyu hurriedly blurted out the sentence, going back to eating with an elated look on her face as if what she said wasn't any more dangerous than a bunny.

Bai Yaoxuan's jaw dropped as she exclaimed, almost dropping the piece of bak choy in the hold of her chopsticks but managed to catch it before it touched the table. "How come you never told me?! How could you not tell me something like this?! Did you get hurt? Oh my god, it was so close to your room, how could you not let me know?! Soemthing this dangerous, really!"

"Honestly, it's nothing big." Shen Tianyu chewed her mouth of afood for a bit longer as she thought about how to continue. "See, I'm powerful enough to not have someone that half-asses hurt me. I'm already at Gold Core level, though only the intial stage. Heck I can fly, how cool is that?"

"That's not the problem! whether you can fly or not is not the issue here! How could you not tell me you were attacked! In your own fiancee's place no less, how can security be so lax?!"

"Calm down. For some people, if they need to find a way, they will. I think we should be thankful the security was so lax or else someone even more poweful might have arrived instead." Shen Tianyu picked up a shrimp from the seafood dish and put it in the other's bowl. "Okay, don't be angry anymore, it's really not a big deal. Not only did I not get hurt, I even captured them alive. With how talented I am, I won't fall into danger so easily."

Bai Yaoxuan put down her chopsticks and huffed out a breath, putting her hands on her face.
