The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 254: The Dark Division Training (1)_1
Chapter 254: Chapter 254: The Dark Division Training (1)_1
"What’s there to fuss about? It’s fine to enjoy a leisurely sleep. Besides, Baby is still young, and extra sleep is how one grows," Old Master Situ said. On hearing this, Old Deng looked at Old Master Situ with disdain in his eyes, thinking to himself, "What an excuse, claiming that more sleep helps grow the body. Xiao Xin isn’t like a newborn infant anymore. Moreover, you certainly don’t treat your grandsons this way."
Old Deng sneered inwardly but didn’t voice his thoughts. To tell the truth, he would just grumble a bit in front of Old Master Situ, but if Situ Xin were his granddaughter, he would spoil her to no end as well.
Situ Xin was oblivious to Old Deng and Old Master Situ’s conversation. Recently, apart from sleeping and eating, she was bothered by the extra piece of land in her space and the newly appeared pasture.
A while ago, Situ Xin had been too busy to concern herself with this additional space, but now that she had some free time, it distressed her every day when she entered her space and saw the vacant land and unused ranch.
Being young, Situ Xin was always accompanied by someone whenever she went out. It was impossible for her to buy anything without letting others know. She hadn’t intended to tell anyone about her space just yet, as it was truly defying the natural order.
Worried about this, Situ Xin had pondered for days on whom to ask to buy the items she needed. She had exhausted many braincells in the process. It’s not that her family members were unsuitable to make the purchases for her, but whenever she mentioned wanting to buy something, they would ask her purpose for those items, as they were hardly things a nine-year-old girl needed.
After some thought, Situ Xin decided to entrust this arduous task to Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang. Having settled on the individuals, she then began to worry about how she would take the items from them once they had made the purchases.
In the end, with no alternative, Situ Xin took two space Storage Rings out of her own space and prepared to find Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang at the Dragon Society.
It was only after Situ Xin had finished breakfast that she fully woke up. As she stood up and walked towards the door, she noticed Old Deng and her grandfather. "Grandpa, Grandpa Deng, good morning," she greeted them instinctively after eating breakfast.
"Girlie, it’s hardly ’good morning’ at this hour. If you were any later, it would be time for lunch," Old Deng teased her with a chuckle as he looked at Situ Xin.
"Oh my, sleeping in is good for your health. If I didn’t have things to do and had to leave today, at this hour, I would still be snuggled in my lovely bed, fast asleep," Situ Xin didn’t feel the slightest embarrassment for waking up so late. She believed that being able to eat and sleep well was a blessing.
Preoccupied and eager to leave, Situ Xin didn’t linger to chat with Old Deng and Old Master Situ and hurried out the door.
Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang were quite surprised when they saw Situ Xin in their office. "Master, what brings you here?" Liu Yuxiang couldn’t help asking directly what was on his mind as he looked at Situ Xin.
"Why can’t I be here? Do I have to report to you if I decide to come?" Situ Xin casually sat down on the sofa.
"That’s not what I mean. When I called you a few days ago, didn’t you say you were going to spend the summer vacation at home and relax?" Liu Yuxiang asked.
Xia Yujie knew Situ Xin’s character; she wouldn’t come without a good reason. He nudged Liu Yuxiang and said, "Ah Xiang, the young lady must have an important matter to discuss with us."
As Xia Yujie spoke, both he and Liu Yuxiang looked at Situ Xin, waiting for her instructions. Situ Xin, however, felt a bit embarrassed under their gaze and took out two identical Storage Rings from her bag, placing them on the coffee table.
Liu Yuxiang quickly picked up one of the Storage Rings that Situ Xin took out and observed it closely. Looking up, he asked with confusion, "Master, what are these two rings for?"
Xia Yujie also looked at Situ Xin, awaiting her clarification.
"These aren’t just ordinary rings; they are Storage Rings," Situ Xin explained. Seeing the puzzled looks on both Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang’s faces, she realized they didn’t know what Storage Rings were. She further explained, "As the name suggests, these rings can be used to store things." Situ Xin didn’t quite know how to describe the Storage Rings in detail, so she simply said, "Each of you take a Storage Ring. Then drip a drop of blood on it, and you’ll understand what these rings are for."
Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang, fully obedient to Situ Xin’s words by now, did as she told them. They each took a ring, cut their fingers, and dripped some blood on the Storage Rings.
As they watched their blood disappear into the rings, they instinctively looked at Situ Xin. However, she didn’t offer an explanation and instead instructed, "Focus your consciousness on the ring in your hand, and you’ll see for yourself."
When Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang concentrated on the rings as directed, they were astonished to see a vast empty space within. They were now unsettled and looked straight at Situ Xin.
"Master, what’s going on?" Liu Yuxiang asked.
"It’s as you see. These rings can store items, and anything you put inside will remain unchanged, just as it was when placed there," Situ Xin clarified. "I’m not giving you these Storage Rings for nothing; I have tasks for you."
"Please direct us as you wish," Xia Yujie said while caressing the Storage Ring in his hand.
"I want you to collect various fruit seeds or fruit trees for me; the more types, the better. Also, some valuable trees like rosewood. Besides, I need some live chickens, ducks, and even cattle," Situ Xin said, almost counting on her fingers.
