Chapter 168 (1/2)
Chapter 168 – He is Her Ingredient (1)
Ning Xuemo lowered her head and saw the sight of the two fingers intertwining. ‘How embarrassing! ’
‘This… this looks somewhat like Yuelao’s red thread binding the fate of two people together…’
Ptui! What was she even thinking?!
He was only an ingredient that she had grabbed. She would eat him later, so what fate could there be?
Even if he was a human, this little bean sprout that was not even taller than a garlic shoot could not possibly be her destined one!
‘I’m overthinking!’
To make sure he did not escape, she reeled in the rest of the red thread fluttering in the wind and wound it around the little ginseng’s chest many times!
Although the ginseng child’s magic power was high, it still possessed the body of a child and did not have much physical strength.
Therefore, when he was restrained by Ning Xuemo earlier, he was unable to struggle out from her arms. The only thing he could do was stare at Ning Xuemo with his ocean blue eyes while slightly pursing his little mouth and wearing a calm expression.
A moment ago, his long hair was floating on the water, but a few strands wound up on Ning Xuemo’s wrist and shoulder, causing her to itch as they rustled. When Ning Xuemo wrapped the red thread around his body, she also took the opportunity to untangle herself from his hair.
This little child’s technique was outstanding. He was a ginseng, so his hair must be what was once his tassel. Perhaps he could used it to coil around someone.
With great difficulty, she was able to restrain him. She did not want some mishaps to happen like being suffocated by his long hair.
Besides, if it’s a 10,000 years old ginseng, its tassels would also be very nourishing. She will not throw any part of it away, not even a little.
Ning Xuemo carried him while advancing underwater for a moment. Soon afterwards, she started sinking. She used more force to kick the water in order to reach the surface. There was no way she would be able to process him underwater. To consume this little ginseng, she needed to go ashore to be able enjoy her meal.
‘Huh? How come this child is suddenly so heavy?!’
She felt like she was carrying a big stone instead of a small ginseng child!
