Chapter 394: Chapter 395: Happiness Comes Too Suddenly
Su Tang snapped back to reality, and quickly waved her hand, "Oh, no no no, I was just finding the sapphire on your necklace quite unique, so I was giving it a closer look."
Qiu Mo pointed at the crystal stone, "My father said this is a crystal stone, it’s beneficial for my superpower training, so he told me to carry it around."
Su Tang: "..."
A crystal stone?
The crystal stone that opens the Wood Immortal Mansion?
The one that I considered unreachable but suddenly appeared by my side?
My god, happiness comes so suddenly that it is somewhat hard to believe.
Su Tang’s heartbeat accelerated. She took several deep breaths before saying to Qiu Mo, "You should take off your necklace and not wear it outside. If you like it, wear mine for now."
Qiu Mo was somewhat puzzled, "Why?"
Su Tang reached out to poke this clueless little mermaid.
I really don’t know how her family raised her, she has no sense of caution. It’s good that she ran into us. Otherwise, she would be sold and still be counting money for the buyers!
"There isn’t always a why for everything. You must obey the rules to stay here. Otherwise, I’ll go and find your older brother to take you back!"
Although Su Tang dearly wanted her crystal stone, she didn’t bully her because of her innocence.
This little mermaid sneaked out; it’s likely that her family hasn’t noticed yet and will come looking sooner or later. So, it’d be foolish to put herself into that kind of trap.
Before her family comes to look, she should try her best to get on her good side. When she needs it, she can ask to borrow the crystal stone. It shouldn’t be that difficult. Plus, this little mermaid is already very likable, and Su Tang likes her too.
Qiu Mo pouted, took off her necklace and said, "Alright then, I won’t wear it. I won’t wear yours either. This is the necklace I’m giving to you, you can’t give it to others okay～"
Su Tang patted Qiu Mo’s head. It felt rather nice, no wonder Gaiyin always liked patting her head.
"Okay, I understood! Let’s go, I’ll take you outside to have a snowball fight and build a snowman, it’s really fun! You can leave your things in the room, no one will come in."
Qiu Mo’s eyes shone brightly, and she was full of vitality, "Okay!"
...
The soft snow in the valley had been mostly trampled flat by the clanspeople.
Everyone had never been out during winter before, so they were enjoying this new and exciting experience, they couldn’t help themselves.
Beast Skin’s hat unknowingly got knocked off, revealing his not fully grown fur.
However, everyone was immersed in the fun of the snowball fight and nobody noticed the bald spot on his head.
Snowballs occasionally hit him. Beast Skin didn’t avoid them. When he saw a snowball coming, he would cheerfully open his mouth to catch it, having a blast.
Su Tang and Qiu Mo also joined the battlefield.
Qiu Mo went from being clueless at the beginning, to becoming skilled, to finally throwing snowballs with deadly accuracy!
Su Tang was running all over the field, her forehead was already drenched with sweat, but Qiu Mo’s face was just slightly flushed.
The two hid behind a house to catch their breaths. Su Tang asked, "You seem to have good stamina! We’ve been running for so long and you seem fine!"
Qiu Mo was very excited, "Have you rested enough? Once you’re ready, let’s go out again! Just now, I don’t know who hit me, I need to get them back! I’ll show them my power!"
Upon hearing that, Su Tang suddenly felt weak in the knees. She quickly waved her hand, "I can’t anymore, I can’t... You go on without me, I’ll wait for you in the room!"
