Chapter 724: Chapter 274: Give Birth to a Litter! (Part 2)

“But this doesn’t taste good, it’s bitter and astringent.”

Xiao Qiao looked suspiciously at that pot of noodles, like a curious baby, “Is this really tasty?”

Huo Wen’an impatiently interrupted his endless chatter, “It’s poisonous, don’t eat it.”

Xiao Qiao insisted on eating.

Once the noodles were ready, Xu Xingguang served Huo Wen’an a bowl first, waiting until he had enough before giving Xiao Qiao a bowl.

Xiao Qiao held the bowl of noodles, took a taste, and instantly widened his eyes in shock. “Delicious!” He quickly set the bowl on the kitchen counter, madly taking photos of the noodles, and sent them to White Eyebrow Old Zhang: [Old Zhang, I’ve tasted the flavor of the Human World!]

Xiao Qiao finished his noodles in a few bites but was still hungry.

He eyed the noodles in Huo Wen’an’s bowl, didn’t say he wanted them, but his gaze was warm. In the end, Huo Wen’an softened and gave Xiao Qiao some.

“099, you are truly a good person.” Xiao Qiao, moved, ate a few more bites.

Huo Wen’an ate the noodles in small mouthfuls, observing Xiao Qiao’s reaction with a pang in his heart.

Even Xiao Qiao, who has some status and position on Bai Ze Island, never had the chance to eat such a thing, let alone the ordinary civilians of the Divine Martial Realm.

Huo Wen’an suddenly asked Xiao Qiao: “Xiao Qiao, is it delicious?”

Xiao Qiao nodded.

“Wouldn’t you want everyone in the Divine Martial Realm to have a hot meal?”

Xiao Qiao remained silent.

Having a hot meal is not a big deal in the Mortal World, but in the Divine Martial Realm, having a hot meal has become their most extravagant dream.

Xiao Qiao licked his lips, asking Huo Wen’an: “Will that day ever come?”

Huo Wen’an nodded, “The road is long, but not impossible.”

Xiao Qiao suddenly laughed, saying, “Huo Wen’an, you’re highly skilled; if you wish, you can live a lifetime without worrying about food and clothing. With this concern for your country and people, you do have the aura of a ruler. Hey, in your past life, weren’t you an Emperor?”

Xu Xingguang glanced at Xiao Qiao, curling her lips playfully.

But Huo Wen’an said nothing, just gazed at the morning sun outside the kitchen, sighing: “You might find me sentimental, but seeing the living conditions of the Divine Martial Realm’s civilians truly pains me.”

Xiao Qiao wanted to ridicule Huo Wen’an’s pretentiousness, but looking at the man’s half-turned profile, there was a glint of tears in his eyes, and he was genuinely hurt.

He was really feeling pain for the Divine Martial Realm.

Xiao Qiao’s heart shivered; he quickly bowed his head to drink the soup.

Idiot, enjoying your own fortune isn’t enough, and you still want to save the entire world.

After breakfast, Xu Xingguang went back to her room to shower, changed into a coat and long pants, and came downstairs.

Seeing her coming downstairs, Huo Wen’an quickly stood up, accompanying her towards the front door.

Ying Ziyao was studying a pile of prescriptions Xu Xingguang had given him, seeing Xu Xingguang and Huo Wen’an walking out together, he casually asked: “Going for a walk?”

Huo Wen’an glanced at Xu Xingguang, saying: “I’m seeing her off.”

Ying Ziyao was slightly stunned, looked up just to see Huo Wen’an and Xu Xingguang already walking out.

Just left?

The queue at the entrance was as long as ever, and those islanders waiting for ID cards respectfully greeted Huo Wen’an and Xu Xingguang.

Huo Wen’an said: “Wait a moment, I’ll drive the car over.”

“Okay.”

Huo Wen’an went to get the car; Xu Xingguang stood at the entrance talking to those islanders.

“Madam, how long have you been married to the Pilot?” Hearing President Zheng Qin call Huo Wen’an the Pilot, they started calling him that too.

Xu Xingguang was in a good mood, cheerfully replying: “Less than a year.”

“Wow, then you are newlyweds.”

Someone else asked her: “Do madam and the Pilot plan to have children?”

Having children.

That’s a good question.

Xu Xingguang replied, half-jokingly, “Yes, a whole litter.”

The islanders hearing this weren’t surprised, because many Superpower Users in the Divine Martial Realm have long lifespans, and for a couple of Super Power Users, having three or four is common.

Huo Wen’an drove the car over, Xu Xingguang waved to the islanders and got into the passenger seat.

The car headed towards Bai Ze Island’s pier.

Huo Wen’an looked at her for a while, thoughtfully saying: “Had I known you wanted to have a litter with me, I wouldn’t have taken precautions yesterday.”

Xu Xingguang laughed, shrugging, “Sorry, it’s already too late.”

“It’s not too late.” Huo Wen’an’s words seemed random.

Xu Xingguang raised an eyebrow, turning her head to gaze at the scenery outside the window.

The car drove over the cross-sea bridge beneath Jile Hall Mountain, finally stopping in the parking area of the barren island pier opposite Jile Hall.

Just as Xu Xingguang was about to get out of the car, Huo Wen’an suddenly pressed a button on the center console, and Xu Xingguang saw the car window glass turn pitch black.

They couldn’t see outside, and the outside couldn’t see in, creating an enclosed environment.

The car became pitch black inside, Huo Wen’an turned on the light above them, naturally reclining his seat.

Xu Xingguang turned her head to look at him, raising an eyebrow in surprise, finally understanding what he meant by “not too late.”

Xu Xingguang chuckled sarcastically, “So what is this, farewell before the wild celebration?”

Huo Wen’an gazed at her with deep affection, deliberately feigning misery, “Xingguang, my shoulder hurts, you ought to be gentle with me.”

Xu Xingguang laughed silently, pressing her fingers to her forehead, but still leaned over.

It was not until noon that Xu Xingguang boarded the little black boat.

Huo Wen’an sat at the car’s nose, watching her and the boat sail into the depths of the Black Sea, becoming a black shadow, only softly murmuring: “Until next time.”

Coincidentally, the boat Xu Xingguang was leaving on was the same one as last time.

Currently, Bai Ze Realm has changed greatly, having set up boundary stones fifty nautical miles out; no other black boats can enter, except his boat.

He was granted permission by Huo Wen’an, the only official little black boat of Bai Ze Realm.

The captain, whose skin was so tan it was red, stood beside Xu Xingguang, biting a smoking pipe, saying quietly: “Miss, don’t look anymore, if you keep looking, you’ll become the ‘waiting-for-husband-stone’ on my boat.”
