Chapter 228

moved in the direction of the Nine Leaf Ice Flower. He generated some inner Qi and carefully extricated it along with the burning soil and pebbles at its bottom. Holding the tender shoot of this plant, Fade walked out the cave in great satisfaction. He found some loose branches and twigs in the woods and created a simple wooden structure. He then placed the Nine Leaf Ice Flower gently in it. After that, Fade generated more inner Qi energy and directly struck the mountain with force. The rocks came tumbling down in a huge avalanche, directly burying the passage into the cave. Traces of his entry and exit were erased as well. After he had dealt with the situation, he felt contented. He placed the small wooden structure into his backpack and then continued with his journey home. It took around half a day before he arrived at the suburbs of Bay City. Although he was still a few hours’ away from the center of town, he felt a sense of homecoming. After all, being in this area already felt close to home. He took a picture of himself, posted it on social media, and sent a text message, informing of his return. Not long after he sent the message, he received a shower of compliments. He was asked on his whereabouts, relief and joy was expressed at his return, and jokes were cracked feigning forgetfulness in regards to Fade’s identity. As he read the message, his cell phone suddenly rang. He looked at the number and saw that it was Xenia Xu. He took the call, saying, "Hello, Xenia." "Dr. Chen, are you are in Mountlong District?" Xenia’s clear voice rang out "How did you know that?" Fade asked. "Dr. Chen, you just posted a selfie, which showed the location you are at!" Xenia said, "By the way, Dr. Chen, my home is at Mountlong district. Are you free now? I would like to invite you over for a meal." "Oh you live so close by!" Fade was surprised. "Well, alright then, where do you stay? I’ll be right there immediately. Xenia chuckled and said, "No worries, I can come over to pick you up." "Alright, I am currently at... beep..." Fade was going to give her his location in detail, but she had hung up the phone. Fade couldn’t help but shake his head. "When did Xenia become so impatient?" Just as Fade shook his head and sighed, a clear voice was heard from behind him, "Dr. Chen, here I am!" Fade turned around and realized that Xenia was standing behind him with

and that you deliberately took advantage of me." "When was that the case! Xenia, clearly it was you who bumped into me." Fade protested his innocence. As he spoke, he started the engine of the motorbike and slightly pressed the brakes. Xenia could not help but bump into him. Fade felt the familiar gentle touch grazing his back. "Look, you bumped into me again." "Dr. Chen, you are so wrong!" Xenia’s pretty face turned red as she said this coyly. Anyhow, she held Fade’s waist with her hands tightly and did not let it go. As for Fade, he stopped teasing her. He started driving and said, "Xenia, do show me the way." This time, Fade soon found out he didn’t need to tease her on purpose. The uneven road in the village seem to present this opportunity to him. The motorbike rose and fell, rumbling forward without stability. Xenia, who was sitting at the back, found herself bouncing up and down, and her soft body bumped against Fade’s, gently grazing against his back. "Xenia, I didn’t do it intentionally this time! Look, you’re the one who bumped into me!" Fade laughed. Hearing this, Xenia blushed and said in a delicate voice, "Dr. Chen, why do you still bring it up! Let’s not talk about it anymore!" "Alright, alright, ’ll stop. I will just focus on the road and enjoy the ride." Fade smiled and said, "Hey, it seems like you have grown much more compared to last time! Am i imagining things, or is it because you put on more layers of clothing?" "Grown?" Xenia was stunned at first. She didn’t understand what Fade was hinting at, but when she saw Fade’s furtive expression, she immediately understood. She blushed so hard that it seemed like her cheeks were burning. "Dr. Chen, you are teasing me again!" "Oh no, Xenia. I’m just telling the truth," Fade replied. "That’s not the truth." Xenia pouted and said, "I’m not wearing that many clothes!" "Ohl see. So it’s not because of the clothes! You really did grow much more then." Fade laughed. "Dr. Chen, you’re being so rude. Hmm!" Xenia’s face was still red and she spoke in a delicate voice. Both of them traveled through the bumpy road and arrived with a jolt at the village. As they approached the village, there were more people around.Fade immediately restrained himself. Xenia also patted her cheeks slightly, lowering her head and brushing her hair slightly "Xenia, which one is your house then ?" Fade asked. He had spotted a large three-storey building on the side of the road. Xenia pointed to a slightly dilapidated two-storey building, which was to the front
