Chapter 577: Chapter 573 Yan Jinsu’s Disappearance Record 25

——————

Xie Jingchen had a splitting headache; not only was the peach blossom tree still unresolved, but now there was a Fire Tree to deal with as well! And he didn’t even know what species it was, which was really frustrating!

But since the Fire Tree already possessed Spiritual Sense, he definitely couldn’t just let it take the Purple Crystal Core away for nothing. The only option left was to trade a Crystal Core for it!

With this thought, since he frequently visited the temple to feed Tao Nu, he still had some low-level Crystal Cores on hand.

He wasn’t sure if the Fire Tree was particular about the attribute of the Crystal Cores; for instance, Tao Nu liked green ones, and blue ones were okay too, but it didn’t like other colors.

He didn’t have any blue or green ones left in his hand, so thinking this, he simply took out the remaining three colors, with fire-colored ones being the most plentiful.

The Fire Tree was quite straightforward; as soon as its leaves settled, it pointed out that it wanted the fire-red Crystal Cores.

"Alright, I’ll give you two fire-attribute Crystal Cores in exchange for your purple one. Consider it payment for your fruit. If eating your fruit makes my wife uncomfortable, you better be prepared for me to chop you into pieces!"

Xie Jingchen didn’t hold back, and then, he saw the Fire Tree actually place a few leaves in the palm of his hand!

He hadn’t even made a move yet when he discovered that the fire-red leaves naturally fell off. They were originally just thin leaves, but suddenly they transformed into red, gel-like leaf pieces, soft and slightly sweet-tasting.

"Are you saying to eat these with the fruit?" He had a total of four Fire Glue Leaves in his hand.

The Fire Tree, perhaps having picked the fruit and exchanged a Crystal Core, seemed to have a shrunk appearance, as though it was affected by frost. Finally, after shedding four Fire Glue Leaves, it leaned against the wall and started to meditate, waving its leaves.

Xie Jingchen immediately understood that the Fire Tree was severely depleted and had entered a dormant state to replenish its lost energy!

Xie Jingchen felt it was okay and decided to trust ’it’ this time. After all, the tree was rooted here and couldn’t escape. He tidied up everything efficiently and threw everything into the Space.

Looking down at his watch, goodness, it was already three minutes away from thirty minutes!

In his mind, an image of his anxious little wife’s face flashed—

Xie Jingchen quickly dove into a roll and swiftly swam back the way he came.

On the way there, because he was unaware of the situation, Xie Jingchen swam very carefully.

But on the way back, Xie Jingchen wasn’t so cautious anymore, and his diving reached its peak. Just as Yan Jinsu crouched down for the sixth time, anxiously looking into the water, the sight of Xie Jingchen rushing towards her really gave her a shock.

Then Yan Jinsu, without caring that he had just surfaced and was still wearing his oxygen mask, threw herself onto him excitedly and exclaimed, "Damn it, you said thirty minutes, why are you eight minutes late! You scared me to death!"

Xie Jingchen securely caught his little wife and supported her body; her current position of throwing herself into his arms was quite dangerous.

Half of her body was still hanging on him, while her tiptoes barely touched the slick stones on the edge of the pool.

Yan Jinsu tightly hugged his neck and sobbed, her heart aching from previous worries that kept throbbing ’bang bang’. It was just a few short minutes, but it made Yan Jinsu cast aside her previous determination, no matter what her memories were.

Yan Jinsu only knew that, at this moment, Xie Jingchen also held an irreplaceable position in her heart.

Xie Jingchen wrapped his arms around his petite wife’s slender waist, took off the oxygen mask from his face, casually tossed it back into the Space Button, supported her body, and cooed softly in a low raspy voice:

"Wife, it’s okay, it’s my fault, behave, I’m back now. Be careful, don’t fall into the water."

"Wuu, it’s all your fault–" –for being too good, making her easily lose her heart.

"Alright, it’s my fault. Treasure be careful..."

While consoling the genuinely crying young woman, Xie Jingchen moved closer to the shore, carefully placing her down on the ground, finally allowing himself to breathe a sigh of relief.

Yan Jinsu hastily wiped away the tears on her face. Seeing that he was about to get to the shore, she suddenly leapt up, nearly slipping because of the muddy ground. Her wobbly figure didn’t scare herself, but it did give Xie Jingchen a fright.

After he let go of his petite wife, his tiger-like eyes had been constantly watching her. Seeing her stumble, his heart leapt into his throat.

Without looking back, Yan Jinsu ran off, leaving Xie Jingchen somewhat baffled.

What’s with the little wife? Could it be she is feeling shy?

Xie Jingchen, concerned about his petite wife’s attitude, sped up taking off his diving suit. But because the suit clung so tightly to his body, it still took him five to six minutes to peel off.

Seeing his disheveled state, Xie Jingchen, despite his urgency, had to suppress his anxious heart and quickly attended to the stains on his body. If his wife spotted this, he wouldn’t be able to hold his beauty in his arms.

The space was not large. Xie Jingchen, bathing naked at the riverside, caught Yan Jinsu’s inadvertent glance. She cursed "Exhibitionist!" in a low voice before dashing into the shower tent as if stung.

Seeing Xie Jingchen bathing triggered Yan Jinsu’s obsession for cleanliness. It wasn’t just her face that felt sticky now, even the light undershirt she wore was soaked through half its length!

Especially around the hips, where she landed on the muddy brown rocks due to her weak legs, making it uncomfortably wet, so much so that she couldn’t wait another moment!

Worried about encountering any embarrassing scenes too early, Yan Jinsu delayed exiting for quite a while, even washing her hair until it was fragrantly fresh, before finally lifting the shower tent flap.

Yan Jinsu’s delay lasted more than half an hour while Xie Jingchen had only taken a five-minute bath and was anxiously waiting, so he decided to make her some blackfish soup.

Now, in his Space Button, besides wild chicken and blackfish, he really didn’t have any other game.

These two game items were specifically hunted by him during mountain training with the military, capitalizing on everyone’s rest period to stray from the group. The military’s back mountain was a primitive range teeming with wildlife, particularly abundant in wild chickens and rabbits.

He generously shared the wild rabbits, but the wild chickens, well, he saved them all up, as his petite wife loved wild chicken legs the most. He instinctively hoarded what she liked to eat.

This caused a rumor in the group that Commander Xie’s favorite food was wild rabbit — every time they went mountain training, he seized the opportunity to catch rabbits!

When Xie Jingchen heard this rumor, he really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. If he truly had a ’preference’ for rabbit meat, would those fellows even get a chance to eat rabbit meat?!

It proves a narrow understanding, convincing Xie Jingchen to further ’exercise’ those military fellows — revealing a truth: since Commander Xie’s beloved rabbit meat was eaten by them, he found justifications to wear them out!

The rumor grew more credible as it spread.

In the end, Xie Jingchen was too lazy to bother with these harmless rumors, simply doing what needed to be done. Some matters, once taken too seriously, meant you had lost.
