Chapter 80 JW Swing (2/2)
The next day.
After the morning assembly in the government hall with all officials was over, Tong asked his master again for a day off today. He had an important business to discuss with Hua Shi.
Lu Zhi allowed it because he thought that Tong and Hua Shi were husband and wife, so he should spare a bit of time for the youths the spend together. Thus, he left Tong and Hua Shi alone in the government hall.
With no one around, Hua Shi started questioning Tong.
”Any explanation of yesterday? How did you get that?”
Tong smiled as he brought out an empty barrel from his inventory, then he cast the skill again.
”[Create Food]!”
Another 10 liters of JWS whiskey was poured into the barrel, while Hua Shi stared at Tong in astonishment.
”Holy Sweeting Buddha! That skill is HAX! Can you show me the skill menu again?”
…

…
Hua Shi frowned after she read the skill over and over again. It was clearly stated that he could only create food. How come he could create a liquid.
”I know what you are thinking. It's an ingredient from one of the foods I ate in my previous life.”
”You … what had you eaten? Why did I not know that there is something that used a whiskey to cook a food?”
”Oh, please. I grew up in Asia. It's the land of food, you know? There are many dishes that used wine and other alcohol as part of the ingredients. A bunches of street food even used it. Where were you in your last life, North-Korea?”
Hua Shi smiled wryly. She was narrow-minded when it came to food. At the latter part of her life, she switched to cannibalism and forgot about normal food.
”Anyway, what I want to talk to you is not about food or this whiskey. There is something more important that I need your help with.”
Tong paused and gazed to Hua Shi. He saw her every day so he did not notice this before. She became prettier as she continued to grow up.
The first time he encountered her, she was just an average teenage girl in his eyes. However, the Hua Shi in front of him now was like an innocent fairy. If Tong had never known about her before, he might think that she was a daughter of a goddess.
Noticing Tong's passionate gaze, Hua Shi smirked.
”What's wrong? Are you horny? We can do it here right now too, you know?”
Tong snapped out of the trance and facepalmed himself. If only she kept her mouth shut, he would probably fall head over heel for her ages ago.
”Never mind that. I'll get straight to the point. I'm going to cancel all of your one-night tickets from now on. I want us to live in the same room starting from today, so the tickets aren't needed anymore. I'll tell my father to invite your parents over ASAP, so we can get married. After that, I have a favor that I-”
Before Tong could finish his sentences and get into his main point, his lips were covered by Hua Shi's mouth. Because she thought that Tong was proposing to her, she kissed him.
However, she did not hear what Tong really wanted.
'I just wanted to level-grind my [Create Food] skill by dual-cultivating every day. It feels wrong for doing it over and over again and risked getting her pregnant before we get married. Oh well, I'll explain it to her on the bed.'
Tong closed his eyes and indulged into the kiss.
…
Hua Shi moved into Tong's room since that day. She found out later that Tong wanted to grind his skill EXP by dual-cultivating. She was so mad that she did not talk to Tong for a week after that.
However, her perverseness and her desire outweighed her temperament. She forgave Tong moved into his room as he had asked.
After a while, Tong had to arrange her working days into 3 days a week instead of 6 because she always got exhausted from his all-nighter EXP grinding.
A few months later, Hua Shi no longer exhausted from the night activities as she had more stamina from the constant work-out. The role was switched and it became Tong who was tired out from the night routine. However, that was another story for another time.
