2823 Accepting A Disciple 2 (2/2)

Gu Xijiu wanted to down it right away but was stopped by a sudden grasp by her wrist. ”Drink it later, with the egg,” Di Fuyi added.

His hot palm made her feel uncomfortable, so Gu Xijiu involuntarily pulled her hand away. She looked at the bronze pot and asked, ”Are you going to share the egg with me.”

”Yes, in exchange for the bracelet that you have just given to me. I do not like to be indebted to someone else for their kindness.”

”I am not asking for the egg. I want the pill. If you are going to make up for my loss, I would suggest you give me want I want.”

”The pill has to be exchanged for a pair of bracelets, as promised. It would not be appropriate for you to go against your words.”

Gu Xijiu said nothing more.

In the meantime, Di Fuyi continued to cook the egg. He opened up the lid, and the egg smelled really great. He fished the egg out of the pot and cut it into four pieces. ”Here, try it,” he offered a portion to her.

Gu Xijiu could not vent her frustration at Di Fuyi. The man was quite a rascal, but he could always come out with proper reasons to defend actions. Hence, she decided to stop arguing with him.

The egg had certainly caught her attention. She never knew that a Candle Dragon's egg was also separated into two parts - the yolk and the albumen. The yolk was crimson in color, in contrast with the pale shades of blue around it. It looked rather appetizing.

She took her first bite and was immediately impressed. Although the egg was only plainly boiled, the taste was the opposite of plain. It somewhat reminded her of a strong, fruity taste.

Also, she finally got to drink the wine. The perfect combination of the wine and the egg was beyond satisfying! The taste was addictive.

Before she knew it, she already ate the entire portion of the egg. Meanwhile, six cups of wine were downed.
