Chapter 366
Instead, Yu Sha took off her sandals, pulled up her dress and sat on the edge to soak her feet . The hot spring is better at night time when the weather is a little cooler . She bathed not long ago and doesn't need one yet . Though it was evening already, the sun has not set . They started the day late and because of that, the day felt shorter .
Hue Chi allowed her space to idle around and walked back to the cart to wait for her . He took out his phone to look through urgent emails . Although his schedule should be free, he needed to check his email infrequently and replied to the urgent matter whenever he can .
Yu Sha laid back and stared at the clear blue skies while her legs dangled in the hot spring . Her mind seemed to be thinking of many things . Once she went back, she should visit her grandfather's grave and see if she could meet him again . Then she'll ask for information about the curse . She has to do more research on curses in order to grasp its concept, how it came to existence . And obtained more information about the transitional space and the threat that could potentially destroy all the realms . Who wanted to control the transitional space and the different realms?
She still has to help Su Na bring justice to her mother, look into the Ghost King Gang if Helan has a relationship with them . Another pressing matter was Benzo and Saveria . She doesn't know how long they were supposed to guard her . The upcoming election was approaching with only three months left . The politicians were busy running campaigns . Shouldn't it make the bodyguards busy too? Sadly, she was not into politics from the beginning and was not familiar with how things work .
To take over the head of the Light Clan, one must know the ins and outs of politics . She should study more instead of staying in her comfort zone . One doesn't grow and get stronger if they don't challenge themselves .
The more she thought about the future, the more pressure increased in her head . She shook her head and sat up to exhale a long, distressful breath .
Her action caught Hue Chi's attention . Something seemed to bother her . Unable to bear the look on her face, he walked over to ask . "Something wrong?"

She glanced at him and shifted her face . "Nothing . Just thinking about work . "
He sensed she was hiding something . He was not sure what it was, but work wouldn't make her have the heavy look on her face . Could it have something to do with the Clan of Calamity? Has she known about it?
Yu Sha's mind was still occupied of the things she needed to take care of once she gets out of this island .
Couldn't stand the expression on her face as she refused to share with him her troubles, Hue Chi scooped her of the ground, startling her .
"Ah . . . What are you doing?" She asked .
He explained calmly . "This is it for today . We'll continue tomorrow . "
"Oh . . uhm . " It was already evening . It would take some times to get back . By the time they get back, it would've been late evening into the night .

After a while, they arrived back at the castle . Hue Chi took her back to the patio to have dinner . This time with alcohol!
Yu Sha's body perked up, and her eyes and mouth instantly drools when she saw the alcohol bottle . She has not drunk alcohol for a while! Though it has only been a month and a half, to her, that felt like a long time . She smiled, "It has been so long . I had forgotten what alcohol taste like . "
She couldn't wait and reached for the liquor bottle, only to be stopped by Hue Chi . Seeing that she was no longer solemn, his eyes smiled at her expression . "Wipe off the drool from your mouth and eat something first . I'll allow you to drink tonight . "
Hue Chi knew Yu Sha doesn't like beer or wine much . She preferred hard liquor over the others if she had a choice . Tonight, she earned herself a bottle of hard liquor . Of course, he'll moderate her intake .
Yu Sha didn't waste time . She quickly stuffed her mouth, putting something in her stomach first .
"I'll pour . " He reached for the bottle and poured two shots and handed one to Yu Sha . She looked at the shot glass and frowned .

"Half? Don't be stingy! Fill all the way to the top!" She demanded .
Hue Chi's brows furrowed . It was not that he was being stingy . He wanted her to take it slow and planned to moderate her drinking, but it seemed like she might be moderating him instead .
"You think I'm weak? I'm the daughter of a bar owner! Fill it!" She demanded .
To make her happy, he had no choice but to comply to her demand and filled the shot glasses all the way to the top .
Happy of the result, she reached for her glass and lightly banged his glass, "Cheers . Thanks for the drink . "
She seemed cheerful at this point that he was helpless against it and grabbed his shot to down it with her .
Yu Sha gulped her shot in one gulp and exhaled happily .
Needing to know more of her life at home, Hue Chi struck a conversation . "Do you drink often at home?"
He poured another shot and pushed the glass towards her .
She shewed her food and took another drink before replying . "Mm . . when my dad first opened his bar, I used to go help serve . " She fed another spoonful of food, flaunted her hairs and added, "I was so popular . The old men wanted to match make me while the young ones bought me drinks until my dad banned me from the bar . "
He listened intently . "Hm . . . "
She sneered . "I can't believe my dad would ban his own daughter! But I soon got busy and didn't have time to go there much . "
