A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 68 Southside, Floraville

Their eyes met, and William’s heart skipped a beat. With a half–smile, Nicole asked, “William, did you touch me on purpose just now?”

His face flushed red with embarrassment. “Didn’t you say you trust me?”

“Of course I trust you, but my skin was so soft and smooth. It must’ve been hard not to, right?” she asked with a mischievous smile, exhaling softly.

He raised his eyebrows, but before he could say anything, she had already hugged him tightly and pressed against him.

His heart started beating wildly; Nicole smiled slightly and placed her lips on his.

Everything happened so suddenly, and William was completely unprepared. However, there wasn’t a need to prepare; he responded naturally.

After the kiss, William rubbed his nose. “This is too sudden.”

Nicole stared at him, “That night, when you weren’t afraid of Kane, I was already starstruck. I felt that you’re extremely mysterious, so I wanted to know you and find out how capable you are.”

William smiled. “Don’t you know it now?”

Nicole pinched him. “Ugh!”

He immediately laughed out loud.

She continued, “You only needed to watch me do it once, and you immediately picked up my family Finger–Flicking technique. Does this mean that as long as you watch someone practice their skill, you can learn from them?”

She was an extremely bright and intelligent woman, and she made quick and precise judgments.

William thought for a while and said, “Not exactly. Some skills require special moves, and I can’t learn them just by observation.”

Nicole praised him, “It’s still pretty good.”

Her eyes glistened as she said, “We should find time to go to the Tribal Summit.”

He immediately understood what she meant. “You want me to pick up skills from a master secretly?”

Nicole smiled and said, “It’s fair because you have the skills to learn them! It just so happened my father invited Grand Master Caleb from the Tribal Summit to play chess. We can follow along.”

William replied, “Sure.”
