Chapter 396: 390: Xue Ling, the Glutton
A white shadow flashed, and Xue Ling emerged with a spiritual mouse in its mouth.
Looking at the four bamboo rats, Xue Ling thought it should be enough.
After putting down the bamboo rat in its mouth, Xue Ling leaped into the bamboo forest and started to dig bamboo shoots with its front paws.
After following Qin Xue, Xue Ling learned that if you want to eat something delicious, you have to prepare it yourself.
So, in order to enjoy the food it desired, it devoted itself wholeheartedly to preparing the ingredients.
Qin Xue and Xue Ling went about their own tasks, not disturbing each other. After Qin Xue finished picking the peppers and preparing the herbs, she stood up and rubbed her sore waist.
Wondering why Xue Ling hadn’t returned yet, she saw a white shadow swiftly appear before her.
“Master, I’ve already prepared everything. Can we start now?” Xue Ling looked at Qin Xue with anticipation.
“Alright, let’s begin.” Although Qin Xue was extremely tired, she didn’t want to disappoint her cute little pet, so she started to clean the bamboo rats with her exhausted body.
As Qin Xue prepared the ingredients, Xue Ling watched from the side, occasionally helping with peeling.
When the ingredients were ready, Xue Ling could already smell the delicious aroma, and its mouth began to water. It was truly too fragrant.
The same could be said for Qin Xue, who drooled as she cooked.
Once the food was on the table, one person and one pet tucked in heartily.
“Phew, I’m so full.” Xue Ling exclaimed, hugging its round belly.
“I’m also really full.” Qin Xue rubbed her stomach, feeling immensely satisfied with the meal.
“What about those?” Xue Ling pointed to the leftover food and asked.
“Those are for Chu Molin.” Qin Xue didn’t care what Chu Molin would think when he saw the bamboo shoots. She didn’t plan to hide anything anymore. Whether he could discover her secret or not, would depend on his own capabilities.
“Hehe, it seems Master is ready to be completely forthcoming.” Xue Ling said teasingly.
“I’m not being completely forthcoming, I just don’t want to hide anything. Whether or not he can discover my secret is up to his observational skills and intelligence.” Qin Xue pointed to her head as she spoke.
“Master, sometimes underestimating someone can come back to bite you.” Xue Ling warned Qin Xue coolly.
“I’m not underestimating him, it’s just that I’m not someone who can keep secrets very well. Do you think it’s possible for me to not let a big bad wolf discover my secret?” Although Qin Xue wasn’t a gossip, she wasn’t the most cunning person, either.
So, it was only a matter of time before Chu Molin discovered her secret.
Qin Xue had observed Chu Molin for a long time. She knew his character and believed that he wouldn’t betray her.
So Qin Xue’s secret was just waiting for that man to uncover.
“Uh, that’s indeed a problem, Master. Haven’t you ever wondered if maybe you’ve already been exposed, but he just hasn’t said anything yet? Do you think there’s a possibility?” Xue Ling analyzed Chu Molin’s mindset.
It had to be said that Xue Ling was indeed insightful. Qin Xue just didn’t have the confidence to think about whether she had been exposed or not.
“Shouldn’t be, right? Although I haven’t deliberately hidden, it shouldn’t be so easy to be discovered, right?” Qin Xue muttered to herself with some uncertainty.
“Even you’re not sure, how can you expect others not to discover a single thing?” Xue Ling looked at its foolish master, somewhat speechless.
How did it end up following this stupid woman who had lifted its seal back then?
However, no matter how much disdain Xue Ling showed in its actions, its eyes told others that it didn’t really despise Qin Xue that much.
Maybe this was fate. If it wanted to transform into a human form and increase its cultivation, it had to start from scratch.
