Chapter 73 - Another Random Mission?
“Ahem!” Su Yang tried to cover up the awkward scene by clearing his throat. He then said to Qu Xiaomeng, “Have some porridge first.”
However, Su Yang’s bluff was still in effect as Qu Xiaomeng was still caught in the moment. She pouted her round cheeks and said loudly, “I don’t want to be a vegetarian! I want meat!”
‘Sh*t, I think I might have gone too far with the hypnotizing. Did I add points to my bull sh*tting ability?’
He tapped Qu Xiaomeng’s shoulder and calmed her down. “Even if you want to have meat, you must eat some porridge first.”
Qu Xiaomeng looked at him with a silly cute expression. “Really?”
He nodded seriously.
“Okay…”
After she had her porridge, the lecturer and student trio headed back to the lecture hall. When they reached the entrance of the hall, Qu Xiaomeng finally regained her senses and realized that she had been fooled. She got grumpy and started to stomp her foot in her mind.
Su Yang: [Cut it for me and soak it in hot water. Put it on my table. I have a use for it.]
[Okay.]
After replying to Su Yang, Deeny pulled out a pair of scissors from the drawer of the tea table in the living room. She flew to Sanque and whispered, “Sanque, bear with the pain. Master says he needed 3 cm of you.”
Sanque opened its eyes slowly and glanced at her dully.
Just when she thought the ginseng was a cool and arrogant one, Sanque said, “Go easy on me.”
Deeny was slightly stunned before laughter broke out from her. “Sanque! Your cool and arrogant personality is ruined! Do you know that?”
Sanque looked at her without saying anything.
Deeny was smart enough to not continue the conversation because Su Yang was waiting. She raised the scissors and counted three roots at Sanque’s head.
Chop! Three roots were snipped off from Sanque’s head.
After that, Deeny flew away with the roots and put them into a cup of hot water. When the roots touched the hot water, they slowly dissolved and disappeared into the water in the blink of an eye. The transparent water then turned slightly yellow.
Deeny then put the cup of ginseng water on the table, waiting for Su Yang to scan it out of the virtual space.
On the other hand, while Sanque was watching Deeny flying around with her chores, its wrinkled face crumpled and a sentence spilled out softly, “It…really…hurts…”
