Chapter 750: Drinking and Chatting (Part 1)
"The divine power contained within the Beiming Pearl is the key to activating the Delusion Void Array. As for what will happen after truly entering the Delusion Void Array, that is unknown. Because when activating the Delusion Void Array, the divine power within the Beiming Pearl will be consumed, and the Beiming Pearl will also be swallowed by the closed Delusion Void Array."
Han Jing exclaimed, "What about Fengxi then?"
Su Yu continued, "I was present when Little Junior Uncle’s soul was sealed into the Beiming Pearl."
Han Jing looked at Su Yu in surprise.
Su Yu stared at Han Jing for a moment before speaking, "You wouldn’t think that your special abilities and Extreme Cold Constitution are just because you were born lucky, would you?"
Han Jing...
Is there another reason besides luck?
She blinked, and then blinked again.
At that moment, her uncooperative stomach let out a "grumble~"
Han Jing... Do you have to embarrass me like this? But she’s indeed very hungry.
A whole day without food, and then...
Han Jing glared at Su Yu in frustration.
Su Yu found her glare inexplicable, but he assumed she was indeed hungry.
So he told her, "Why don’t you freshen up a bit first, and then we can eat something before I explain what happened."
Han Jing... Is there such a thing as stopping mid-sentence?
"You finish telling me first!" Han Jing urged.
Su Yu had already turned to put on his shoes, leaving her with a cryptic line: "It’s a long story. Don’t you want to find out about Little Junior Uncle’s lineage? And your lineage?"
Han Jing...
"When did you know?" Han Jing asked, and then realized, followed by a snort: "Oh, I almost forgot, you followed me when I went to the Capital City."
Su Yu stood up, his expression unchanged, and said, "No, I went ahead of you, and at that time, I truly didn’t know you were Little Junior Uncle’s daughter."
"Hmph," Han Jing muttered unhappily. At the time, she dreamed of him at night and thought she was dreaming, not knowing that he was actually there.
Su Yu poked her playfully, "Come on, aren’t you hungry?"
Unwillingly, Han Jing followed him to the bathroom to freshen up quickly, and then the two of them headed to the Prayer Pavilion.
Since it wasn’t too late, upon reaching the kitchen, they coincidentally encountered the cook from the Princess Mansion brought by Su Yaogeng, who was still preparing a midnight snack. The cook was an old hand at the Princess Mansion, having served there for many years, so naturally, she recognized Han Jing. Seeing her, she quickly asked her what she wanted to eat and whether they should make something anew.
Han Jing wasn’t very picky by nature, so she casually picked a few ready-made dishes to take away.
Han Jing carried the food container out of the kitchen and after pondering, asked Su Yu, "Do you have any wine?"
Su Yu was slightly startled, then nodded, "I should have some."
Han Jing rolled her eyes at him, handed the food container to Su Yu, and pointing at the kitchen, said, "You go get some ingredients, we’ll make a few dishes when we’re back, and I’ll go get the wine."
Her mother should have brought quite a lot from the Princess Mansion when she came over. Since it’s supposedly a long story, it’s rare that she and Su Yu have the opportunity to sit together, perfect for having a few drinks; she hasn’t had wine in years.
Han Jing went to find Su Yaogeng for the wine. Su Yaogeng smiled teasingly, "You came at the right time; I just sorted the things I brought this afternoon. There’s quite a bit of wine, and coincidentally, the tribute grape wine Qiao’er sent to the Princess Mansion before New Year’s is here too. I thought you would like it, so I brought it all."
