193: Chapter 0193: The Legendary Tiger Tonic Wine 193: Chapter 0193: The Legendary Tiger Tonic Wine Whenever Ye Xunhuan thought of Dragon Ancestor Bodhi, his head would throb with pain.
That woman was a lunatic, a complete lunatic, and even he, a marshal renowned throughout the underworld, had to admit that he dreaded Dragon Ancestor Bodhi!
The woman’s strength was not to be underestimated, almost on par with his, potentially even surpassing him.
What was most important was that Ye Xunhuan had a past grievance with this woman, and now that she had co to Huaxia, if they were to encounter each other…
The re thought gave Ye Xunhuan a pounding headache.
Why had she co?
How could she co?
Headache!
Because he knew that Dragon Ancestor Bodhi had arrived in Huaxia, Ye Xunhuan was extrely dispirited all day, without a trace of energy.
After work, Tang Yurou spoke softly to Ye Xunhuan with gentle affection, “Xunhuan, what’s wrong?”
“Why do you seem so listless today?”
“It’s nothing!” Ye Xunhuan managed a smile and said, “Perhaps I’m just a bit tired!”
Tang Yurou gently acknowledged and didn’t ask further.
She was no fool, seeing right through Ye Xunhuan’s reluctance to speak.
Asking more would be pointless, and even if she pressed him to talk, it wouldn’t make her happy if his response was not given willingly but out of sheer exasperation.
So she remained quiet, waiting for Ye Xunhuan to feel like sharing on his own accord.
A very rational choice.
“I won’t be going out today, take ho,” Tang Yurou said softly.
Ye Xunhuan nodded, “Okay!”
After driving Tang Yurou ho, Ye Xunhuan imdiately left the old district.
He didn’t wander aimlessly but went straight back to his villa.
He truly wasn’t in the mood for random drives.
And all of this was because Dragon Ancestor Bodhi had co to Huaxia.
Ye Xunhuan’s early return took Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong by surprise.
Although they hadn’t lived there for long, they knew that Ye Xunhuan usually didn’t return too early.
Qiu Shuihan and Xiahou Yutong, however, didn’t say much.
A young person, after all, was bound to have their own life and circle of friends.
It was normal to return late.
“Xunhuan, why did you co back so early today, didn’t go out to play?”
“There was nothing urgent today, so I ca back early,” Ye Xunhuan said with a smile.
“You’ve both been here for so long; it wouldn’t be right if I always ca back late!”
“That’s nothing to worry about, do your thing and don’t mind us,” Qiu Shuihan said generously.
“How can that be!” Ye Xunhuan said earnestly: “If this continues, Qiu Ruo is going to kill !”
“She wouldn’t dare!” Qiu Shuihan imdiately puffed out his chest and glared, “I wouldn’t let her!”
Just then, Qiu Ruoxi walked in from outside, catching Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Shuihan’s conversation.
Her heart flared up with anger!
Who had I offended again?
But why did this jerk co back so early today, not hanging out with Tang Yurou?
“Honey, you’re back!” Ye Xunhuan imdiately showed a flattering smile on his face.
Qiu Ruoxi nodded, “You ca back quite early today!”
“Well, I didn’t have much to do.”
“Alright, alright, since Xunhuan has co ho so early today, let’s have your mom prepare a nice dinner.” Qiu Shuihan commanded, “Ruoxi, you and your mom go out to buy so groceries, and Xunhuan, you and dad are going to play chess!”
Qiu Ruoxi’s lips twitched slightly.
Is this really what being a dad is like?
She had already had a tiring day, and yet he still wanted her to go out and buy groceries with Xiahou Yutong.
Although she felt annoyed, Qiu Ruoxi did not go against Qiu Shuihan’s words and left ho with Xiahou Yutong.
anwhile, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Shuihan, father and son, headed to the study to play chess.
However, Qiu Shuihan’s chess skills were clearly no match for Ye Xunhuan.
Without giving way, Ye Xunhuan simply couldn’t lose!
“No more playing, no more playing!” Qiu Shuihan complained like a child, sowhat angrily, “I’ve been playing for half the day, and I’ve lost more than I’ve won!”
To this, Ye Xunhuan chuckled and said, “Dad, you’re just letting win on purpose.
Otherwise, you’d definitely be the undefeated General!”
“The undefeated General, pah!” Qiu Shuihan said brashly, “If you weren’t taking it easy on , I’d be consistently defeated General at best!”
“Dad…”
“Enough, don’t just say things to flatter , I know my own level just fine,” Qiu Shuihan said as he stood up, “Your mom and Ruoxi should have dinner ready by now, let’s go eat!”
Following that, Qiu Shuihan and Ye Xunhuan descended from upstairs.
Just as Qiu Shuihan had said, Xiahou Yutong had indeed finished preparing the al.
All the dishes were served, steaming hot, presenting an excellent array of colors, and were undoubtedly delicious to taste.
“You and granddad ca down just in ti, go wash your hands and let’s eat!” Xiahou Yutong imdiately said.
After Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Shuihan had washed their hands and sat down, Xiahou Yutong and Qiu Ruoxi also took their seats.
However, they hadn’t eaten much when Qiu Shuihan, seeming to rember sothing, suddenly said, “Yutong, where did you put the wine soone brought for today?
Bring it out; I want to have a drink with Xunhuan!”
Upon hearing Qiu Shuihan’s words, Xiahou Yutong imdiately smiled, got up, and walked towards the liquor cabinet.
“Xunhuan, let tell you, the wine I had soone bring over this ti is really sothing special.
I guarantee you’re going to like it,” Qiu Shuihan told Ye Xunhuan enthusiastically.
“What wine is it that has you so happy, Dad!”
“Of course it’s a good wine!” Qiu Shuihan assured emphatically, “No man would dislike it.
Make sure you drink plenty of it later!”
Just then, Xiahou Yutong ca out holding a glass bottle.
Looking at the scene, Ye Xunhuan was stunned.
What kind of wine cos in a not-so-big, not-so-small glass bottle?
As Xiahou Yutong placed it on the table, Ye Xunhuan finally saw clearly that it was indeed wine, infused with goji berries and various other ingredients, including a long cylindrical object that was about twenty centiters in length and conical at one end!
This… this…
“Dad, this is…?” Ye Xunhuan swallowed nervously as he spoke.
“Tiger tonic wine, how about it, isn’t it a treasure!” Qiu Shuihan exclaid excitedly, “I got this especially for you, drink up.
Who knows, maybe you’ll give twin grandsons afterwards!”
Ye Xunhuan suddenly felt a headache coming on.
He could tell that the wine Qiu Shuihan had prepared was steeped with tonic herbs ant for bolstering virility, the most crucial ingredient being part of a tiger.
If he drank too much, this evening could turn out to be…
Ye Xunhuan couldn’t help but glance at Qiu Ruoxi!
