Chapter 92: HouseBoat pt 1 (1/2)

After talking for a while, Xinya ended the video call with Melting Snow. He really enjoyed teasing that boy, he had to wonder what Melting Snow would say if he knew that he didn't have to worry about him stumbling into any quests since his plan was to do nothing much but make potions. Xinya laughed at the thought of Melting Snow's reaction.

”What's so funny?” Wei asked curiously.

Shaking his head, Xinya replied, ”It's nothing. Let's go see if Wandering Sound finished renting the houseboat for us to use.”

While Xinya was talking to Melting Snow, Wandering Sound had left them, saying he was going down to the docks to rent one of the boats. So instead of waiting for them here in the busy market place, Xinya thought it would be better to just go down to the docks and meet him.

Wei started smiling slyly and in a childish moment said, ”I'll race you there.”

Xinya watch as she took off and laughed following after her, he knew he wouldn't be able to catch up to her since elves are quick on their feet, but just being able to run freely like this made him grin. By the time he made it to the docks, he could see Wei was already there excitedly telling Wandering Sound something.

”I see you finally made it.” Wandering Sound started. ”Roaming Wind was just telling about her flawless victory, in the race, you two were having.”

Looking at Wei in a dubious manner, Xinya said, ”Flawless victory? More like cheating.”

”That wasn't cheating, it's called being efficient,” Wei told them.

”Efficient? In what way?” Xinya asked already knowing that some smart remark was coming his way.

”By not wasting your time with the thought you could win,” Wei said snarkily.

Wandering Sound started laughing and Xinya was tempted to pick up some of the dirt on the ground and throw it at her. He decided against it, but he would get her back, he might just ask Melting Snow for some ideas.
