My Princess Holds Superpowers-Chapter 626: Caught sneaking snacks at 2:26 in the morning

After finishing the chat, Ye Jiu checked out the items she had acquired, and there were quite a few indeed. There were about ten Spiritual Beasts that resembled deer but were slightly smaller than deer. However, they looked a bit strange, and Ye Jiu didn’t recognize what kind of animals they were.

While these items were utterly useless to others, to Ye Jiu, they were like treasures.

Spiritual Beast, she had only read about them in fantasy novels. The flavor was described as exceptionally good, but she had never had the chance to taste one until now.

Until she lay back in bed, Ye Jiu felt as if she were dreaming, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Then, Ye Jiu stealthily got up and sneaked out alone.

The moon was dark, the wind was high, and the deep night was silent.

Ye Jiu used Qinggong to jump out of the yard and arrived at the middle of the back mountain.

She was so careless that she didn’t notice that Ye Wenyu, who had been practicing martial arts until deep into the night, happened to see her leaving silhouette.

It was strange, where could her niece be going at this hour?

Ye Wenyu couldn’t help but wonder in his heart.

Then, he lifted his feet and followed her.

Although Ye Wenyu’s Qinggong was still not up to par, after practicing for so long, climbing a wall was a breeze for him.

Ye Jiu ran all the way to the middle of the back mountain, then took out a frying pan, a kitchen knife, and a cutting board from her space, including the big thigh of a Spiritual Beast that she had finally managed to chop down from within her space.

When the kitchen knife slid through the meat, it was clear that this Spiritual Beast Meat was indeed incomparable to ordinary poultry meat.

Eagerly, she used a lighter to ignite the firewood, set up a few stone slabs, placed the frying pan on top, and created a makeshift stove.

Luckily, there were plenty of twigs and fallen leaves on the mountain, and she could gather quite a bit without much effort, so she didn’t even need to pick up firewood deliberately.

Chop, chop, chop, chop, the sound of cutting meat ended, and Ye Jiu took out bottled water from her space to rinse the meat clean, then put it straight into the frying pan to sauté. She added water and then covered the pan.

Her cooking skills were not great; the only reason she would fix herself something to eat in the middle of the night was purely due to the attraction of the Spiritual Beast Meat.

When Ye Wenyu arrived, what he saw was this very scene.

His aunt, wearing a thick cotton jacket, casually sat on a stone slab, adding firewood from time to time.

In front of her, on the makeshift stove erected with random stones, sat a strange pot from which an irresistible aroma wafted through the air, causing his stomach to growl incessantly.

"Auntie... what are you doing?" Ye Wenyu asked, perplexed.

Ye Jiu wasn’t particularly vigilant, she only noticed Ye Wenyu’s presence when he called out to her.

Turning her head and looking at her unexpected grand-nephew not far away, Ye Jiu gave an embarrassed smile, "Hehe, I was hungry in the middle of the night and came out to scavenge some wild food for myself. Are you hungry too?"

"No, I was learning a new set of boxing techniques with master Ada today, so I practiced a bit late. I happened to see you jumping over the wall on my way home, so I followed," Ye Wenyu replied.

Although Ye Wenyu’s arrival was unexpected for Ye Jiu, since he was already there and she was clearly making food, it wouldn’t be right to send him away.

So, Ye Jiu could only say, "You must be hungry after practicing for so long. Since you’re here, come and eat something with me before you go back."

"Okay," Ye Wenyu answered without any hesitation.

Originally, Ye Wenyu and Ye Wenqing lived in Ye Gaosheng’s house, and the three of them had the best relationship. However, after their grandparents moved out, two rooms in the house became available, providing enough space for them to live separately.
