Chapter 258: With Jade Essence? So Expensive!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Feng Wu had been trying to pump that information out of Feng Xun, but the guy had been very evasive about it. However, under the beautiful lady’s limpid eyes, Feng Xun couldn’t bring himself to say no to her.

He replied right away, “The cubs need to feed on Jade Essence. The type of jade doesn’t matter, but you have to make sure that it’s top grade jade — nephrite or vert empire jadeite will do. Each of those jade stones contains a streak of Jade Essence. Extract it, mix it with water or milk, and voila.”

Feng Wu was baffled by this piece of information. “Jade Essence? And top grade jade only?”

Feng Xun waved his hand. “You don’t need much. One drop per meal is enough.”

Feng Wu said, “If my calculations are correct, one piece of nephrite will give you a few dozen drops of Jade Essence at most, right?”

Feng Xun nodded. “Yup.”

Ever since the beautiful lady sold it out, the cub had been sighing to itself with a depairing look on its face.

The contrast between its young face and that defeated look created quite an amusing effect, which had almost made Feng Wu laugh. However, she didn’t feel like laughing anymore.

The little guy here was a cash-burner!

Jade Essence? That was so expensive!

The cub had its pitiful look back on as it eyed Feng Wu in grievance, fearing that she might decide to throw it away.

Feng Wu sighed in resignation, for she really couldn’t afford it.

Yes, she was a Grandmaster medicine refiner, but her master had left her with explicit instructions that the medicine she refined couldn’t be used for profit. Moreover, she had never thought of running a business of her own during the past few years in the border city. As a result, she didn’t have all that much money.

Raising the cub on Jade Essence? The cost made her grimace just to think about it!

Her mother said happily, “Jade? I have a lot!”

Because the lady liked jewelry and gems, Feng Wu would collect them whenever she had the chance, especially jade stones, of which Feng Wu had amassed quite a big pile.

However, if she were to feed the cub with them, the jade stones would become consumables, for once the Jade Essence was extracted, the stones would shatter.

“You’re so costly to keep.” Feng Wu poked the cub in its forehead. “I’ll keep you for now and toss you out when I can no longer afford you.”

Frightened, Feng Tutu scurried into the lady’s arms and hid itself in her sleeve, from where it looked out with its teary big eyes.

That melted the lady’s heart. Glaring at Feng Wu, she rubbed the cub’s head and placated it in a gentle voice. “Little Tutu, don’t worry. We won’t give you up!”

Feng Wu was speechless.

Rubbing her forehead, she checked the color of the sky and her exhausted mother, then shook her head. “The sun is rising soon and I don’t think you’ll have time to go back to bed. Mum, you can take a nap in the carriage later.”

Feng Wu waved goodbye to Feng Xun as she said that, acting as if Jun Linyuan wasn’t there at all.

Jun Linyuan frowned and his intense gaze locked onto Feng Wu as she walked away. His brooding eyes looked like bottomless pools.

Feng Xun turned to Feng Wu and asked, “In the carriage? Are you leaving now?”

Feng Wu didn’t look back. She only gave Feng Xun a wave as she walked away without hesitation.

Feng Xun said with regret, “Too bad that little Feng Wu is leaving so soon, otherwise we could have traveled back to the imperial capital together. Can’t she wait two more days? I hope they’ll have a safe trip. There are bandits in these mountains. We ran into some when we were here last time —”
