Celia: After Dying in the Apocalypse, I Live Once Again!

Chapter 288: My Wife Is In An…Obvious Spot.

Guanyu: “…”

Vulely: “What?” I said with an innocent head tilt.

Guanyu: “Do you not find this embarrassing? Having your mother pay for what you ask for, despite being an adult?” She asked with a curious tone, not actually judging me.

Vulely: “Eh, Celia is always the one to pay, so me not remembering to bring any Soul Crystals…isn’t really that big of a deal. Besides, if you want, I do have more than enough Soul Crystals to pay you back, Guanyu.” I replied with an unbothered shrug.

Guanyu: “That won’t be necessary, dear. I am absolutely enjoying this time out together, and was simply worried that I’ve been accidentally making you uncomfortable in some way.” She clarified with a warm smile.

Since Celia was in no danger, there wasn’t really any good enough reason for us to rush. The others went back to doing what they were doing prior to all this excitement, leaving the two of us to find our wife. There is also a non-zero, or pretty good chance that Celia returns to the estate as we’re still looking for her; so leaving our group home is a great idea.

After all, the estate itself is huge, so even if Celia returns, it is likely that no one sees her there at all. With all that, looking for her was our intention still, but at a much, much slower pace now. For one, even Guanyu wanted to explore around Home, experiencing the shops and entertainment that those living here have set up. It is a one in a lifetime event, you know. I, of course, have been indulging in countless food and snack carts, getting my dearest Cultivator mother to pay in my stead.

Vulely: “Is there anything in specific that you’d like to find, Guanyu? Ria and Zia…forced everyone to section out, and keep everything to whatever genre their product, food, or entertainment best aligns with. So it is pretty easy to roam around themes that you’re intrigued by.” I asked with a curious tone and expression.

Guanyu: “If you’re suggesting that we go to the Chinese area of the venue…I wouldn’t be against it. However, do please remember that most Chinese culture doesn’t match the culture of my Cultivation world. I’m interested in potentially finding a snack that I haven’t seen in a long time, in fact. Perhaps we’ll find it there?” She replied while doing a deep thinking pose, her voice slightly reminiscent, though still upbeat.

Vulely: “F-fuuuuck!” I exclaimed loudly, nearly dropping a teriyaki chicken (I don’t waste food!!!) skewer, clearly startling my mother.

Guanyu: “( ? _ ? )”

The Cultivator cannot be blamed for this one, I am entirely at fault! She’s been following me this whole time, and I, while keeping an eye out for the wife, was just wondering around randomly. Which is why I asked Guanyu what she wanted to do next.

How come I am so disturbed? While they aren’t fully comparable…the Chinese section of this wedding is as close to Cultivation that you can honestly get. To save as much face as possible, I will give a very short answer to showcase my stupidity. Since Selfros is also a Cultivator, where else would Celia take her out on a date to…if not the Chinese area?!
