Chapter 1048: Sick



Zhou Yuanyuan used her spells to predict other people's affairs, and they were always accurate. However, there was a flaw: when it came to predicting Zhou Yuanyuan's own affairs, nothing was clear except a fog.

I should have known not to waste my spiritual energy!

Forget it, let's just ask Chaos Pearl to contact Qiankun Mirror! It's better to ask directly than to guess here. Huh? Speaking of which, Chaos Pearl usually wants to show his presence to her all the time, so why is he silent today?

"Zhuzhu." Zhou Yuanyuan called out.

"Master, Zhuzhu is here." Chaos Pearl heard Zhou Yuanyuan's call and quickly flew out of the trial world.

Looking at the spirit stone fragments that had not been wiped clean from the corners of Chaos Pearl's mouth, Zhou Yuanyuan's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

It seemed that Chaos Pearl was truly afraid that she would go back on her word, so she took the bag of spirit stones back. Otherwise, Chaos Pearl wouldn't have gone into the Trial World to eat spirit stones.

"Have you finished eating the spirit stones?" Zhou Yuanyuan asked suddenly.

"Not yet. It tastes better if you eat it piece by piece... uh... there are only a few pieces left." Chaos Pearl wanted to say that it was gone, but he felt that he couldn't lie to his master, so he was in a dilemma.

"A lying spiritual treasure is not a good spiritual treasure!" Zhou Yuanyuan teased the Chaos Pearl.

The master is so awesome. It’s a rare lie, and he found out immediately?

Chaos Pearl looked at Zhou Yuanyuan's mischievous smile, quickly leaned forward and rushed a few steps, grabbed Zhou Yuanyuan's slippers, and shouted, "Master, Master, I haven't eaten all the spirit stones, but you said they all belong to Zhuzhu! Can you please stop worrying about them? Otherwise, Zhuzhu won't enjoy eating them!"

"Alright, alright! You're useless! I don't want your spirit stones, keep them and eat them however you like." Zhou Yuanyuan kicked her legs, sending the Chaos Orb flying higher. She felt strange having to lower her head and look at her slippers while she spoke.

"Master is so kind! Master is so great! Zhuzhu loves you, muah!" Chaos Pearl finally felt relieved. There was no other way; those spirit stones were too precious to Chaos Pearl. For energy, Chaos Pearl acted cute and acted like a spoiled child, without any psychological barriers.

"Zhuzhu~! Where do you think that little mirror guy went? I haven't heard from him for such a long time, I'm really worried." Zhou Yuanyuan was interrupted by the Chaos Pearl and almost forgot about the Qiankun Mirror.

"Master, Little Mirror is being rude. It's paid but doesn't do anything. It's not a good spiritual treasure." Chaos Pearl took this opportunity to quickly give Qiankun Mirror a look in front of Zhou Yuanyuan. Chaos Pearl remembered it clearly! Its position as Zhou Yuanyuan's second spiritual pet must not be taken away by Qiankun Mirror.

"Zhuzhu, ask the little mirror where it went? When will it come back?" Zhou Yuanyuan was indeed a little anxious. Without the Qiankun Mirror in Kyoto City, Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't feel at ease during her vacation.

"Okay, master. Please wait a moment." Chaos Pearl was about to call the Qiankun Mirror when Zhou Yuanyuan said again, "Zhuzhu, just tell me the result later."

After hearing what Zhou Yuanyuan said, the Chaos Pearl quickly moved aside. It could already sense Wen Ziqing's presence, which was getting closer and closer.

"Yuanyuan, Yuanyuan, open the door." Two seconds later, Wen Ziqing's cheerful voice came from outside the door.

"Brother Ziqing." Zhou Yuanyuan immediately put the matter of the Qiankun Mirror behind her and ran over quickly to open the door.

"Yuanyuan, did you sleep well?" Wen Ziqing felt his heart soar as he looked at Zhou Yuanyuan's unconcealed joy.

"Yeah." Zhou Yuanyuan nodded, her almond-shaped eyes smiling into crescents. Looking at the bags in Wen Ziqing's hands, Zhou Yuanyuan was genuinely happy. Not for a bite of food, but for the feeling of being cared for by Wen Ziqing.

It had only been an hour or so since Wen Ziqing left. The fact that he had brought back so many things showed that he cherished Zhou Yuanyuan dearly.

"Yuanyuan, how about we have sweet and sour chicken, braised carp and spicy and sour potato shreds for lunch? What do you think?" Wen Ziqing accepted Zhou Yuanyuan's hand that extended to help and carried the dishes into the kitchen.

On the way home, Wen Ziqing had already thought it over. Since lunch was short, he'd make a few quick dishes. He'd stir-fry half a chicken and use the remaining half to make chicken soup for Yuanyuan tonight. For dinner, he'd also have braised pork and pickled cabbage; Yuanyuan was sure to enjoy them.

"Okay, Brother Ziqing, you take care of it. I'll just eat." Zhou Yuanyuan nodded and walked to the sofa and sat down very consciously.

It wasn't that Zhou Yuanyuan was lazy, but rather her damned "kitchen killer" nature. Any dish she touched before cooking would, without exception, acquire a strange odor. Therefore, the kitchen became a forbidden area for her.

"Okay, Yuanyuan, please wait a moment. It will be ready in a while." Wen Ziqing rolled up his sleeves and prepared three dishes in less than half an hour. He also steamed a bowl of egg custard specially for Zhou Yuanyuan.

"Yuanyuan, eat this while it's hot, it's delicious." Wen Ziqing placed the egg custard in front of Zhou Yuanyuan.

Zhou Yuanyuan felt a warm feeling as she looked at the egg custard in front of her. Over the years, Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing had been together less and less, but no matter how long the time passed, Wen Ziqing never forgot her fondness for it. This egg custard was Zhou Yuanyuan's favorite childhood delicacy, the kind she never tired of.

Of course! Given Zhou Zhixin and Zhao Yunxiang's circumstances, Zhou Yuanyuan hadn't had many egg custard dishes before she was six. There was no other way. Wu Jinfeng controlled all the eggs and money in the Zhou family. She wished Zhou Zhixin and his family would suck her alive, so how could she bear to give Zhou Yuanyuan her precious eggs?

However, after Zhou Yuanyuan turned six, she could eat egg custard at will, and Wen Ziqing also contributed to this.

When Zhou Yuanyuan was six, she moved back to her grandfather Zhao Qingshan's home. Wen Ziqing also went to Zhaojiagou to learn martial arts from him. Wen Ziqing always cared about Zhou Yuanyuan. Knowing that she loved egg custard, he diligently practiced cooking with Zhao Yunxiang, and would steam a bowl for her every one or two days.

A small bowl of egg custard holds great commemorative significance for Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing.

"Brother Ziqing, open your mouth." As usual, before Zhou Yuanyuan started eating, she would always use a spoon to scoop a large spoonful of egg custard for Wen Ziqing.

Wen Ziqing doesn't really like eggs, but even if he dislikes the egg custard Zhou Yuanyuan feeds him, he always smiles happily. The reason is simple: it's Zhou Yuanyuan who feeds him.

During the meal, Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing took half an hour to finish the meal, with each of them eating with chopsticks.

After dinner, Zhou Yuanyuan felt embarrassed to not do anything, so she offered to clear the table, but Wen Ziqing rejected her offer.
