The next day, Jiang Chen and Liu Liangmei boarded a plane heading to the Treasure Island. The matters concerning the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm were of great significance to Jiang Chen. If it weren't for the connection between the Shuangyue Jade Pendant and the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm, he would have been reluctant to get involved in Liu Liangmei's sect disputes.
The flight was uneventful, and a few hours later, they arrived at Taoyuan International Airport. Liu Liangmei, the Master of Zhai Yue Pavilion, was quite adept at dressing up. Although she was in her fifties, her exquisite makeup and fashionable attire made her look stunning, even with a sun hat and sunglasses that couldn't hide her charm, drawing the attention of several men.
In contrast, Jiang Chen maintained a casual appearance, standing beside Liu Liangmei with little presence.
"Mr. Jiang, let's find a hotel to settle down first. Today is my junior sister's fiftieth birthday, and there's a birthday banquet at her private residence tonight. I need to congratulate her properly," Liu Liangmei said.
"It’s important to congratulate her; it might be her last birthday," Jiang Chen replied with a faint smile.
Liu Liangmei wasn't particularly surprised by Jiang Chen's words and chose not to elaborate further; she had already lost all hope for her junior sister. If Jiang Chen were to commit murder, Liu Liangmei would likely not intervene.
After settling into the hotel, it was still early, so Liu Liangmei invited Jiang Chen to explore Bao Bei City. As the capital of Treasure Island Province, Bao Bei City was quite different from inland cities in terms of style and local customs, making it worth visiting. Since they were there, Jiang Chen naturally agreed to take a look around.
"Mr. Jiang, is it a bit awkward for you to accompany this old woman on a shopping trip?" Liu Liangmei asked as they walked down an ancient street.
"Uh, is your age really that significant?" Jiang Chen replied, pulling his gaze from ahead as he spoke.
"Isn't it?" Liu Liangmei paused slightly in surprise.
"Not really; you're just in your fifties," Jiang Chen said dismissively.
"Being over fifty means I'm already half a century old. A woman starts aging after thirty; let alone I'm over fifty," Liu Liangmei sighed.
"You don't look old at all; you could easily pass for thirty. I noticed quite a few young men glancing at you while we walked here," Jiang Chen smiled.
Liu Liangmei stared at Jiang Chen in astonishment for a few seconds before snapping back to reality and laughing, "Mr. Jiang, I didn't expect you to joke! I thought you always had that aloof demeanor."
"Liu Pavilion Master, you're actually more aloof than I am; even Ye Jian Sheng seems a bit intimidated by you," Jiang Chen chuckled.
"I just prefer not to interact too much with others, especially men. My master always told me not to trust any man or fall in love with one because love can ruin a person," Liu Liangmei said.
"Your Master is right; love can indeed destroy someone," Jiang Chen replied with a smile.
"Mr. Jiang, do you also agree with my master's words?" Liu Liangmei asked in surprise.
"Your Master makes very valid points; I certainly agree. However..." Jiang Chen began but suddenly paused and looked at Liu Liangmei.
Liu Liangmei felt a bit shy under Jiang Chen's gaze, her cheeks warming slightly. However, she pretended to be calm, reaching up to tuck a strand of hair that had fallen onto her forehead behind her ear. She asked steadily, "What do you mean?"
"Well, experiencing love once isn't a big deal. Of course, you're still very young, so it doesn't matter if you wait to taste the sweetness of love later," Jiang Chen replied.
Liu Liangmei stared blankly at Jiang Chen, feeling as if he was speaking nonsense with a serious expression.
