Chapter 220 Time Before the Stars, Late Night Dinner Conversation

late at night.

The stars are sparse and the shadows of the river are turning, and the frost is heavy and the moon is solitary.

Wutong walked downstairs wearing thin pajamas and turned on the light in the living room. Coincidentally, Hua was not asleep either, and she was sitting at the door meditating.

Wutong discovered one thing a long time ago, that is, Hua has never been too cool.

Realizing that the light had become brighter, Hua opened his eyes and looked up at the people around him, slightly surprised.

She tightened the cotton shawl around her body and asked, "Tonight, why didn't you and Sakura...?"

Wutong followed Ying upstairs very early, and Hua thought the two of them would be tossing it until dawn.

"She was not in high spirits tonight and wanted to have a good night's sleep, so she ended up having a hard time." Wutong took two cushions, sat down next to her, and explained.

"oh……"

Ever since Wutong gave the Herrscher core to Sakura, the couple hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time. Sakura would grit her teeth and test whether she had become stronger again every night.

This has also resulted in her being very physically and mentally exhausted recently.

But what makes Sakura disappointed is that although her fighting ability has become much stronger due to the Herrscher Core, her physical fitness is still the same. Her physical fitness has even deteriorated due to the pressure brought by the core. In a short period of time, it has dropped a lot.

Fortunately, Ji Lin came up with something very counterintuitive, which gave Sakura hope.

"Why aren't you asleep yet? It's so late, why are you still sitting here?" Wutong poured a cup of hot tea for Hua.

Hua held the still steaming teacup with both hands, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and said with emotion: "The deeper the silence, the more lonely the lamp shines on the wall. I am sleeping in my dreams. The flowers are empty, the smoke flows, and the water flows."

"..."

Wutong was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Do you miss a man?"

"Go! You just miss a man!" Hua said displeased, "I just feel a little lonely and desolate."

"You won't be lonely when your wife warms your bed."

"..."

"By the way, does the yin and yang complementarity that Ji Lin created a few days ago work?" Hua changed the subject.

"It's okay. It's quite useful for Sakura. Her physical condition is getting better day by day as I nourish it, but its effect on me is very average and is dispensable."

Wutong now doesn't understand Ji Lin, why she always comes up with something that goes against common sense.

The red kite, the current specialty pet "Aji" in Taixu Mountain, was created by Ji Lin more than 4,000 years ago.

And the technique she created a while ago is even more outrageous. Not to mention how much it goes against the laws of all things, to put it simply, this girl Ji Lin has never experienced what it's like to be a man. How did she create it?

Hua held the tea cup, took a small sip to moisten his lips, and said, "Does that technique still need to be improved?"

In Hua's eyes, she doesn't think that kind of exercise is dirty at all. Hua is even very interested in it. If this kind of exercise can be fully popularized in the land of China, it will be a good thing that can improve the physical fitness of all people.

Although it can't improve the resistance of mortals' bodies to Honkai Energy much, it will at least make them healthier, and maybe they can live longer. Even if it doesn't, it's great to have one less illness.

Of course, whether those mortals can find wives or husbands is not something that China should worry about.

"There is no need to perfect it. When Ying Ying's physical fitness becomes stronger and stronger, she will naturally benefit me through that technique." Wutong thought, "The reason why the effect on me is very low now is because Ying and The physical gap between me is too big.”

"I see...can it be widely used?"

Wutong thought for a moment and nodded: "It should be possible. There is nothing wrong with that technique. The biggest obstacle is actually the literacy rate. However, China has done a good job in popularizing education in recent years. There are very few young people who can't read anymore. .”

"Then I'll talk to Guanxing tomorrow?" Hua asked.

"OK."

Wutong touched his stomach and said, "I'm a little hungry. Go and give me something to eat."

Hua put down the teacup, stood up and said, "Okay, would you like some scallion noodles?"

"Can't you just bring some meat?"

"No, I can't eat it if I like it."

"...Then why are you asking me? Okay, you can cook whatever you want, I'm not picky about food." Wutong said helplessly, "Remember to wash your hands when kneading the dough."

"Um……"

Hua took off her shawl and threw it into Wutong's arms, then turned and went to the kitchen.

Since all the cooks have gone to bed, Hua is the boss now. Wutong is really afraid that if he keeps talking nonsense, he will lose the scallion noodles. Maybe Hua will make him a bowl of vegetarian soup without any oil or water. Even giving him a plate of pickles was considered a kind act by Hua.

After a while.

In the restaurant, Wutong and Hua sat opposite each other, eating noodles together.

Hua's cooking skills are naturally outstanding, and the noodles he makes are very fragrant.

But Wutong seriously suspected that Hua made scallion noodles because she wanted to eat them. She actually ate more than Wutong. Wutong only took two bites, while Hua had already finished a big bowl.

"Don't eat like that yet, take a rest first." Wutong waved his hand at Hua and quickly stopped her from continuing to make noodles.

The noodles the two of them ate were freshly cooked, and they ate one bowl after another.

Hua is not rude when eating. She looks like a well-educated little girl, but she does eat a little fast.

.

Hua used bamboo chopsticks to hold a piece of handmade noodles that were about to be put into the pot, and said blankly: "But... the noodles won't taste good when they are cold."

"...Wouldn't it get cold if you don't cook the noodles?"

"But I'm hungry."

"Don't be in such a hurry to eat when you're hungry. It's a long night and since you don't want to sleep, just chat for a while. Otherwise, you won't be able to eat anymore and will have to watch me eat."

Hearing this, Hua silently put down the noodles in his hand.

Wutong stood up and took out a plate of mutton slices, a plate of fat beef and a plate of flying fish balls from the refrigerator in the kitchen. Then he took some dipping sauce and changed the scallion oil noodles into a simple hot pot with water.

"Lin said that eating hot pot late at night is not good for your health." Hua reminded kindly.

"It's okay, we both have good physical fitness." Wutong said nonchalantly.

With his physical condition, he can't even drink poison to death, so why would he care about his diet?

"Then...let's get some green vegetables." Hua compromised.

"also."

Wutong stood up and cut some potato slices and yams. He also processed some vegetables and placed them on a large plate.

During this period, he asked casually: "What would you like to drink?"

"Just boiled water."

Hua felt that given the weather conditions at the moment, it would be better to eat and drink mainly light meals.

Upon hearing this, Wutong took out a bottle of old liquor from the cabinet and placed it in front of her. The strength of this bottle of liquor could be ignited with fire.

"?"

Hua stared blankly at the liquor in front of her and said nothing for a while. Was she just talking about boiled water? She seems to be right, right? Could it be that Wutong heard it wrong?

Wutong helped her fill up the wine while she was still in a daze.

Hua came to his senses and said hurriedly: "Hey, wait...it's okay..."
