Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest

Chapter 1062: Chapter 92 I’m in a Hurry

After returning to Lu Country, everyone went their separate ways.

Li Minghu returned to the Wudang Mountain base, Liu Longtao went to Pingjing, while Yan Yu, Chen Lingyun, and Su Yunjin went back to Jinling Villa, waiting for the missions assigned from above.

During the days Yan Yu was not around, the girls lived in peace.

Every morning, Zhou Hongyu went out for training in the yard behind the villa, practicing military boxing vigorously; in the afternoon, she went back to the villa and filled the indoor swimming pool, used by Yunjin for practicing Taoism, with water to swim back and forth a dozen times; at night, she returned to her room to chat with Tang Xiaolian over the phone.

Zhao Yuanzhen, on the other hand, slept in the morning, then went out in the afternoon to enjoy food and drinks, and in the evening watched movies and ate snacks with Xie Ruoxi in the living room on the first floor… her schedule completely offset with Zhou Hongyu’s, thus no conflicts occurred.

Until Yan Yu returned home, the two who had originally kept to themselves began clashing immediately.

“You can’t handle this level of spiciness?” Zhou Hongyu sneered, “Wimp.”

Zhao Yuanzhen’s eyes were ablaze—not from anger, but from the heat—the days when Su Yunjin and Lin Ning were not around, meals were solved by turns through deliveries. When it was Zhou Hongyu’s turn to order, she deliberately chose super oily and spicy Sichuan restaurants, driving the Enchantress mad.

Not eating them is hard, as the aroma of red oil is truly tempting, Zhao Yuanzhen couldn’t resist such temptation; but if she forces herself to eat, she’ll soon be overwhelmed by the heat, sweating all over. She believes she can handle spicy food quite well, so suspects Zhou Hongyu is deliberately messing with her, adding insane levels of chili to prevent her from enjoying her meals.

What infuriates her even more is that her good friend Xie Ruoxi feels no spicy sensation at all, happily eating beef with red oil and dipping it in chili powder, enjoying it without breaking a sweat.

“Don’t worry, Sister Zhao, you’re already quite capable of handling spicy food.” She chewed beef and comforted Zhao Yuanzhen, “Eat a bit more and you’ll be like us.”

Zhao Yuanzhen’s face turned ashen: What do you expect me to do? For every piece of beef I eat, I have to chug half a bottle of soy milk just to suppress the heat in my mouth. By that time, you’ve eaten all the beef, leaving hardly any for me!
