Chapter 37: Oh wow~ This place is awesome

Qi Xu knew that someone had returned, and although he was still a little angry, he still showed it because Qi Hong was present.

With a fake smile of concern, he tried to hold his voice, "You're back?"

"Didn't you come back last night? Was there something going on with the team?"

It was originally a casual question, but Jiang Hongyi answered it surprisingly seriously, "Yes, the team held an emergency meeting yesterday and asked us to visit the orphans of the martyrs and report on their recent living conditions."

She didn't know why this man suddenly changed his attitude and answered so seriously. Although she couldn't figure it out, at least she knew why he appeared in the villa area.

Qi Xu nodded to show that he understood, and wanted to turn around and go to the kitchen to prepare some ingredients for cooking.

She inexplicably felt that Jiang Hongyi looked at her with an extra layer of scrutiny, but she also felt that she should not be exposed. She was still thinking about this problem on the way to the kitchen.

I sincerely hope that she will never meet Jiang Hongyi again after dressing up. She won’t be exposed once, but if it happens too many times, she might reveal something, and then she will have no way to defend herself.

"Hey, let me chop the vegetables."

Qi Xu's hands, which were busy washing vegetables, froze for several seconds, and he complained madly in his heart.

What's going on with this guy? Isn't he angry? Why is he even coming to the kitchen? Does he want Grandpa to know that they're not on good terms?

She kept comforting herself, saying that it was okay, it was normal, and she just wanted to put on a show to let her grandfather know that their relationship was good.

Then, she kept washing the vegetables and meat, putting all the clean ones into an enamel basin and placing it next to the chopping board. The water used to wash the vegetables was not wasted, as she directly poured it into the vegetable garden.

Qi Hong watched their interaction while cooking and nodded with satisfaction. This was what a couple should be like. They had just had a fight the day before and made up the next day. Not bad, not bad. Jiang Hongyi was a pretty good grandson-in-law.

In fact, Jiang Hongyi was secretly observing her while cutting vegetables. Looking at her fair appearance now, he had no idea how she had turned herself into a yellowish, bearded uncle.

There was a little more curiosity in his heart than before, and he wanted to explore Qi Xu at a deeper level.

After dinner, Mr. Qi Xu felt that someone was looking at him inexplicably, so he made an excuse to go out for a walk to digest his food.

In fact, when she came to climb the mountain again, Qi Xu's waist was indeed slender, and her skin was several shades whiter because of the spiritual spring water, but if she wanted to improve her mental strength quickly, she had to meditate every day.

What's more, her purpose is not just this. Another more important task is to make the little baby spirit quickly condense into a physical body and practice various anti-attack abilities.

For example, she could practice her own protective shield, preferably to the point where it was as strong as a solid wall. This way, when she went out to work, she would always have a tank protecting her.

Qi Xu let the baby spirit absorb the healing power in the spiritual spring first, and then taught it to build a protective shield that could increase its ability to withstand attacks. To put it bluntly, it was of the same nature as the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Cloth Shirt.

She watched the little baby spirit circulate the spiritual energy around its body until it could slightly condense a protective shield, then she felt relieved and meditated on her own.

To be on the safe side, she also released Xue Niang when she went out. After all, it would be of great use if Xue Niang's intelligence was more developed or enhanced.

It would be great if she could communicate with Xue Niang without any obstacles.

The spiritual energy beside this spiritual spring seemed to be endless. Every time they came, it was very abundant. Sometimes Qi Xu even felt that the spiritual energy was expanding for no reason.

Just like now, a sudden flash of inspiration came to her mind, she stopped meditating, and looked up at the sky.

As expected, he saw a full moon, which happened to be reflected in the spiritual spring. Qi Xu clearly saw that the spiritual energy above the spiritual spring was increasing due to the moonlight.

It turns out that this spiritual spring has healing powers by absorbing the spiritual energy illuminated by the full moon.

Qi Xu was very glad that he had discovered this. Afterwards, he not only sat by the spiritual spring, but also asked Xue Niang and her cub to sit by the spiritual spring as well, while the little baby spirit hung in the air and let its body bathe in the moonlight.

From a distance, they formed the most stable triangle, and the spiritual energy around them kept lingering around them, forming a ribbon like soft quicksand that flowed up and down, which was very beautiful.

She meditated for about ten rounds and only stopped when she felt her whole body seemed lighter.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that the little baby spirit had become even purer and was glowing like jade.

She raised her hand and poked the little baby spirit. Hmm, the little ghost condensed into a physical body. Then she poked it again. Not bad, not bad. It felt very good and very elastic.

After the little baby spirit finished practicing the protective shield for the last time, she couldn't wait to pull his chubby little legs down and hold him in her arms and rub him.

It really looks like a glutinous rice dumpling and feels chewy and bouncy.

After playing with the baby spirit enough, she looked at Xue Niang again, "Xue Niang, how do you feel? Are you feeling comfortable?"

"Well, this moonlight makes me feel very comfortable..."

After Xue Niang finished speaking, both sides were stunned. Xue Niang didn't expect that she could not only understand what Qi Xu said, but also seemed to be able to speak.

Qi Xu had never expected this unexpected gain. She and Xue Niang could actually communicate with each other without any obstacles!

"Oh my god, Snowgirl, I can understand you now!"

"We can communicate directly from now on."

She was very surprised and hugged the snow girl, rubbing her hair hard.

Qi Xu was very satisfied. Since the little baby spirit and Xue Niang had met her current expectations, she simply stopped lingering by the spiritual spring and strolled down the mountain.

"You, went up the mountain again?"

As soon as she reached the bottom of the mountain with the two wolves, she saw Jiang Hongyi standing not far away, staring at her and asking questions.

"Well, yes, I thought since I'm carrying Xue Niang with me, I'm not afraid of anything. Climbing the mountain will exercise my body better, so I just climbed up and took a walk around."

"I didn't go far, I was halfway up the mountain, haha."

To be honest, her heart trembled when she saw Jiang Hongyi, but because she was in a good mood, she mustered up the courage to say a few more words.

"Why? Are you worried about me walking at night so you came out early to wait for me?"

"I didn't expect you to be such a gentleman, thank you~"

Jiang Hongyi choked at these two words, "Ahem, no, I just came out to digest my food and just came back."

"Oh~ Is that so~ That's such a coincidence~"

Qi Xu had no idea how charming she looked in the moonlight. She still spoke in a pretentious tone, with a smile on her face and a curved eyebrow.

"Then let's go home together."

After she said that, she walked ahead, not caring whether Jiang Hongyi followed her or not.

Jiang Hongyi now began to doubt his own eyes. He clearly remembered that she didn't look so pretty when she went out in the evening.
