XH 260 – Jing Ke's story

After a while with still no sight of Yu Zheng's other half, Xiao Hua asked, "Uncle Yu Zheng, where is Uncle Bai?"

Occasionally, Xiao Hua would call them as uncles, rather than fathers. She could not bring herself to call them 'father' without feeling embarrassed. The best she could do was treat them as her own uncles, even if she was actually treating them as if they were her own fathers.

Xiao Hua was not a child that could easily call her adopted fathers as daddies. Especially when they know she was actually a twenty-eight-year-old woman!

However, her ruse was easily seen through by two experienced old men but chose to let her protect her thin-skinned face.

"Your Papa Bai is with Jing Ke. It won't be long before he will come back home. Tomorrow will be the earliest he could return."

"How is Jing Ke? Is he badly injured?"

If Doctor Bai needed to stay behind, it means Jing Ke was injured quite badly. Xiao Hua assumed Jing Ke's strength would not be bad since he could live as normal as he could with his obviously painfully burned body. But fighting using his current body was definitely dangerous.

"He will be fine after a few days of bed rest." Yu Zheng chewed a pineapple tart in sunflower shape, looking so unconcerned that it made her believe Jing Ke will be fine. "Your Papa Bai is only staying there so that he can ask about Jing Ke's past story."

"Jing Ke's story?" Xiao Hua's eyes lit in interest. "We can finally figure out who he really is, and what happened between him and the dark beauty!"

"Hmm? You want to know?" Yu Zheng unwrapped a new bag of snacks, the potato chips. It was given to Xiao Hua by Doctor Bai, which was collected from one of his previous world-hopping trips.

Xiao Hua wondered what was the requirement that allowed Doctor Bai to bring potato chips and the vampire coffin to different worlds with him. Novels had told her that the players usually could not carry anything with them when they leave or were only allowed to choose one item per world to bring along. Obviously, Bai Chuan's experience would be different from the author's fictional fantasies, but after Xiao Hua managed to shoot a ten out of ten point at Bai Chuan and Yu Zheng's love summary, she started to view the novels she read in a different light.

Bai Chuan may not share his love life, but Yu Zheng was happy to tell her all about it.

"Of course!" Xiao Hua quickly grabbed the bag of potato chips from Yu Zheng's hand. "It's the last bag of potato chips! Have mercy, my lord!"

Yu Zheng and Bai Chuan will certainly be able to taste potato chips in future worlds, but not Xiao Hua that will die in this world.

"Your friend might be able to create potato chips soon."

"How would it be the same!" Xiao Hua cried out mournfully, clutching the potato chips in her embrace lovingly. "Healthy versions of potato chips do not taste as good!"

Unlike Xiao Hua's letters to Long Zhu that were filled with words of fresh spring of romance or the letters to Long Lian filled with words of comfort and gossip, her letter to Duan XiYing was all about food!

With eighty percent of Xiao Hua's treasures used as the initial investment, Duan XiYing started a small store with the mission to generate profit! They planned to use the money to increase Xiao Hua's dowry, shutting people's mouths about her being unworthy of their Third Prince!

The location of the shop was in between Bai land and the Guilin Kingdom, but Xiao Hua had never set foot to that place yet. She was unable to go because Doctor Bai refused to go easy on her lessons, but Yu Zheng had gone there to take a look on her behalf and said it was doing well.
