Chapter 433: Chapter 434: Spatial Stone
"Little Tangtang!"
Ye Qiao’s voice echoed from behind, and the moment Su Tang turned around, she was hugged tightly. 𝒏𝒐𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
The powerful impact made Su Tang lean back, almost stumbling.
Regaining her balance, she patted her chest in relief, "You scared me to death..."
Ye Qiao laughed, standing a step away from Su Tang, "Well, are you surprised or shocked to see me?"
Su Tang nodded vigorously, "Of course I am! Didn’t you see that I rushed over immediately?"
Ye Qiao slapped her on the shoulder, looking very excited, "I didn’t expect this, I’ve only just been away for a little while and you’ve got so many houses built, well done, you’re quick, quickly, which one is mine?"
Su Tang looked embarrassed.
Could she tell Ye Qiao that actually someone is already staying in her house for now?
She cleverly changed the subject, "Oh, have you guys had dinner yet? Whatever matters you have can wait until after dinner, because food comes first!"
Ye Qiao wholeheartedly agreed, "Exactly, I didn’t have a decent meal all the way here, I was waiting to get here to have some tasty food made by you! I brought all the food from Tiger Valley, including chilies and corn. How about that, are you happy?"
The corn and chili that piled up like a mountain looked bright, tender, and appetizing. All the dishes made with chili she knew of flashed across Su Tang’s mind.
She started salivating, it had been too long since she had spicy food, she missed it so much!
She nodded vigorously like a pecking chick, "I’m extremely happy!"
Ye Qiao mysteriously gestured for her to come closer, "Come here, I’ll tell you a secret."
"What?"
Her face filled with curiosity, Su Tang leaned in.
Ye Qiao said, "Sugarcane is afraid of cold, so I let Old Wen put it in the spatial stone, and also sugar cubes, those were specifically left for you. Do you appreciate it?"
Su Tang widened her eyes, feeling the world was becoming more and more fantasy-like.
"A spatial stone?"
Ye Qiao nodded and explained, "Yeah, haven’t you read novels in Lanxing? It’s that kind of stone with a space inside. It’s not as magical as the novels describe, but it’s convenient since it can store things."
Su Tang suddenly thought of the Night Luminous Pearls that magically appeared in the hands of the chief of the Mermaid Clan. Could he also have... a spatial stone?
"Oh right, where’s my son? Why haven’t I seen him yet? Where did he go?"
Su Tang came back to her senses and explained, "Oh, we’ve got guests today. He’s entertaining them. He asked me to meet you guys when you arrived and bring you there for dinner."
Ye Qiao was a bit surprised, "There are other guests? Won’t we interrupt?"
"That won’t be a problem. The guests are the Chief of the Mermaid Clan and his clan members... I heard you know them."
Su Tang and Ye Qiao were from the same hometown, and since Ye Qiao had awakened her superpower, she looked about the same age as Su Tang. The two of them were very close and often referred to each other as sisters in playful banter.
But Su Tang didn’t know how to interact with Wen Jue, who appeared to be her age but was, in fact, her father-in-law according to formal kinship.
She felt a shy blush creeping into her cheeks, unable to address him properly.
Upon hearing her words, Wen Jue raised his eyebrows slightly, "The Chief of the Mermaid Clan? Is his name Hai Qin?"
Su Tang nodded in confirmation.
Wen Jue slightly nodded his head, "Then we must pay him a visit. It’s been a long time since I last saw him. It will be a good opportunity to catch up."
Ye Qiao, standing next to them, suddenly realized something, "Oh, is he the one you met during your travels on the Continent? The same one you’ve been talking about all these years?"
