Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy

Chapter 107: Mo Chengyu, Sometimes You Just Don’t Know What to Say

’What has Mo Chengyu ever gotten from me?’

’That delicious meal from a few days ago? Was she going to give it back?’

A number of unpleasant images flashed through Jiang Qiuqiu’s mind.

’Never mind, never mind. Let’s not go there.’

Jiang Qiuqiu fell silent for a moment, and Mo Chengyu leaned back on the sofa and burst out laughing. "Alright, alright, we’ve exchanged gifts. If you really think I got the short end of the stick, you’re welcome to come visit more often and bring me some of your cooking."

"I absolutely love your cooking."

Her eyes sparkled, and because her gaze was so sincere and clear, her face—which usually had the look of a gentle older sister—took on a touch of pure innocence.

Jiang Qiuqiu really liked this lively friend, so she nodded.

"Okay, I’ll treat you to some good food in the future."

"Deal!"

However, Mo Chengyu wouldn’t be able to enjoy any delicious food today.

When Jiang Qiuqiu asked why, Mo Chengyu sighed and pressed a hand to her forehead. "My spiritual power had a bit of a collapse. I can’t ingest any complex energies right now, so I can’t eat anything besides Spirit Nourishing Liquid."

She put on a look of profound suffering. "This is why I haven’t come to see you. I was afraid that if I stepped out that door, nothing could stop me."

The moment she finished speaking, Jiang Qiuqiu quickly snapped the lid back on the insulated container and tucked it behind the sofa.

Mo Chengyu: ...

"Then I won’t bring any food over for a while."

"Oh, you don’t have to go that far. I found a Spiritual Power Combing Master who’s coming over tomorrow. Once they’re done with the combing, I can stop taking the Nourishing Liquid."

"That’s good."

The two chatted for a bit about spiritual power, then Mo Chengyu suddenly asked, "Have you been using this helmet often lately?"

"Yeah," Jiang Qiuqiu nodded.

Mo Chengyu looked thoughtful. "Have you been using your spiritual power constantly lately?"

’Using spiritual power?’ Jiang Qiuqiu shook her head. "Why do you suddenly ask?"

"Didn’t you just say that whenever you’re tired, using this Spirit Helmet helps a lot?" Mo Chengyu explained. "It’s specifically designed for spiritual power recovery. If you’re finding it that effective, it means you’ve been using its spiritual power features."

"Can I ask, what do you usually do that makes you feel so spiritually drained?"

Spiritual power. This was a shared blind spot for both Jiang Qiuqiu and the body’s original owner.

She thought for a moment before saying, "Cooking. I always feel a bit drained after I cook."

"Cooking?" Her expression immediately turned thoughtful.

Such a serious expression made Jiang Qiuqiu feel uncharacteristically nervous.

And then—

"No wonder your cooking is so delicious, Qiuqiu! You’ve been using spiritual power!"

"..."

"Sister Chengyu, is that really what you were just thinking about?"

"Yep. Oh, by the way, Qiuqiu, if you don’t mind me asking, what’s your spiritual power grade?"

"It’s B+."

"B+, huh? That’s a pretty decent spiritual power level. Normally, even if you were focusing your spiritual power while cooking, you shouldn’t get this exhausted. Qiuqiu, did you ever train your spiritual power when you were in school?"

Mo Chengyu asked about school matter-of-factly. Jiang Qiuqiu froze for a second, then shook her head. Just as the other woman was about to say that was impossible—that every Spiritual Power Academy was required to provide a method for training spiritual power—she heard Jiang Qiuqiu say, "I’ve never been to school."

"I’m sorry." She immediately realized she’d asked something she shouldn’t have.

Jiang Qiuqiu shook her head, showing it didn’t bother her. "It’s no big deal. You don’t have to apologize, that’s too formal between us."

"Okay, apology made and done with. But constantly depleting your spiritual power like that really isn’t good for you. If you have time in the future, you can come over here and train your spiritual power with me."
