472: Chapter 473: Old Affairs 10 472: Chapter 473: Old Affairs 10 In the end, Hai Qin and his companion didn’t leave; after all, they had been running around all morning, and they needed rest too.
Aqi felt a bit of regret.
Anxious inside, she didn’t dare make any abrupt moves for fear of raising any suspicion.
When they were finally about to depart, Aqi was clearly eager to get moving but had to feign indifference.
Hai Qin looked at Aqi with confusion, “Aqi, are you sure you won’t join us?”
Aqi quickly waved him off, “No, no.
I’m still in heat.
If I go with you, I might distract you from hunting.
It’s better for to stay in the cave!”
Hearing this, Hai Qin agreed, and without saying anything more, he left with Wenjue.
No sooner had they left the cave, Aqi sprang to her feet and went to sit by the stack of hunted ga, waiting for that blue vortex to appear.
But her hope was t with disappointnt.
She waited for an entire afternoon, until Hai Qin and his companion returned at nightfall, but that vortex never appeared again.
That night, Aqi experienced her first sleepless night, tossing and turning the whole ti.
Even when she woke up the next morning, she was t with mockery from Hai Qin over her huge dark circles.
“Hahaha, Aqi, your eyes look hilarious.
They actually resemble that slow-witted beast, what’s its na again?”
Wenjue quietly added from the side, “The Iron-eating Beast.”
Hai Qin burst into laughter, clutching his belly, “Exactly, the Iron-eating Beast!
Hahaha, I’m dying laughing ┻━┻ ︵ヽ(‘□’`)ﾉ︵ ┻━┻”
Aqi pursed her lips, her face grim, and gave Hai Qin a kick, “I’ll show you!
Laugh so more, I dare you!”
Perhaps it was a bit too much for Hai Qin, and he hurriedly escaped with Wenjue.
Feeling both aggrieved and angry, Aqi returned to her fur bed, intending to catch up on so sleep.
Yet no sooner had she laid down, than she saw the blue vortex appear again.
Aqi stayed lying there without moving.
Watching the blue vortex, she felt upset.
He didn’t say he would co that afternoon, but neither did he say he wouldn’t.
She had waited and waited for a long ti.
Did he only think of her now?
Humph ┻━┻ ︵ヽ(‘Д’)ﾉ︵ ┻━┻!
A little huffily, Aqi decided not to deal with him, to make him a little anxious too.
So, she just kept staring at the blue vortex.
Unlike the other tis, the hand didn’t flutter around aimlessly after entering.
This ti, it was clenched in a fist, palm up, as if holding sothing.
This sparked Aqi’s curiosity and she lifted her head, but she still made no move towards him.
After a while, the hand slowly opened to reveal so ‘Little Tianguos’—a fruit unique to the warm season.
This small sweet fruit is usually found on cliff edges, and harvesting it is quite the feat.
Also, it’s quite rare.
Ever since she ca above ground, she’d only had it once with Wenjue in the Firefly Forest.
She had not seen it since then.
And now, in that hand reaching from the blue vortex, there were several bright red Little Tianguos, known for their delightful taste.
Even though Aqi was tempted, she still rembered she was supposed to be angry with the hand.
She couldn’t forgive him that easily over so Little Tianguos!
Aqi remained unmoved, and the hand remained still as well.
Still holding the sa position for a long while, the hand held the Little Tianguos steady, without a hint of a tremor.
After a long ti, the hand seed unsure if Aqi was there or not and appeared hesitant to withdraw.
Seeing this, Aqi panicked!
With a bit of a whiny tone, she exclaid, “I waited for you for a long ti yesterday, and you didn’t even show up!”
