Chapter 1168: Chapter 1168: Offering Gifts Without Reason

Han Jing arranged the snacks she brought back on the table, and Xiao Xue was indeed so excited that he jumped up: "Wow, so pretty, Mother, you’re the best!"

Han Jing chuckled and patted Xiao Xue’s head, "You go ahead and eat; I have something to do with your dad."

Xiao Xue turned his head and asked, "Mother, won’t you eat with us?"

"Let your aunt keep you company. I have something important to do!" Han Jing waved her hand, leaving Xia Wu with Xiao Xue, and turned to find Su Yu.

When Han Jing pushed open the door and entered, Su Yu was seriously reading a book, looking calm and serene, with none of the signs that Xiao Xue said, that Su Yu had gone out to look several times.

Han Jing leaned against the screen with her arms folded, watching Su Yu leisurely flipping through his book on the soft couch, with a slight rise in her voice, "I heard from Xiao Xue that you went out several times to see if I was back yet?"

Su Yu paused slightly at Han Jing’s voice but didn’t raise his head, replying in a calm voice, "Shi Qi said the array of this Xiaoyao Villa is quite intriguing, so I had him draw it out. I wanted to study it, so I went out to take a look. Hmm, how did your thing go?"

Han Jing’s eyes flitted around Su Yu, clicking her tongue, he really played the part well. His words flowed naturally without missing a beat. Hmmph, if Ming Qianyi’s slick talk is something to unconsciously fall into, then Su Yu’s definitely makes you believe it as soon as he speaks, and even if he doesn’t speak, it’s as if he’s really being honest!

Han Jing sat down at the table, not rushing to answer Su Yu’s question, but instead took out the coffee grounds from Ming Qianyi that she swindled today and started to brew some using her tools. While filtering it, she suddenly thought of something—wasn’t she sitting right next to a craftsman? Su Yu could even sharpen surgery knives, so making a coffee pot for her shouldn’t be hard, right? She didn’t even need an alcohol lamp; her fire ability could control flames and temperature anytime!

Han Jing suddenly felt she was simply too clever!

"What are you so happy about? Your smile is stretching all the way to your earlobe!" Su Yu suddenly quipped.

Han Jing wasn’t upset at all; she even personally brought a freshly brewed cup of coffee to Su Yu: "Here, try something new. This is called coffee. Didn’t I tell you I have memories with An’an of living in another time and space? This is a kind of... tea we drank there, try my craft, it doesn’t grow just anywhere. I didn’t expect Ming Qianyi to actually have this stuff!"

Su Yu took the cup, sipped it, and commented, "Bitter, but with a distinct richness. So, what scheme are you up to this time?"

Han Jing responded coyly, "I’m just purely inviting you to have coffee!"

"Jing’er, have you ever heard a saying?" Su Yu asked casually while sipping his coffee.

"What?" Han Jing looked at him.

Su Yu handed her the finished coffee cup, "Offering favors without reason, you’re either a swindler or a thief."

Han Jing’s smile faltered on her face... Is it appropriate for a couple that’s been together for ages to say this?

"What do you mean thief, if anything I’d give you a knife instead! I’ll draw you a diagram, and you help me make a coffee-making stove, oh no, make it two." Han Jing suddenly remembered, she could give a set to Ming Qianyi—taking his stuff had left her with short hands. Ming Qianyi wasn’t easy to deal with, so of course, she should get closer to him, maybe even scoop out some useful information. After all, if they wanted to make it in the Futu Realm, they had a long road ahead!
