The Alchemists Chamber

Xu Yi had no appetite. The child had good intentions, and he did not wish to disappoint her. He rubbed her tiny head and started munching.

The dainty child watched him eating happily. Her round chubby face was in full bloom. She flashed her silly looking tigress teeth.

"Come eat with me? There's so much food; how can I possibly eat it all?"

Xu Yi chuckled.

The child rubbed her bulging belly and pouted. "I can't eat anymore. I am so full. Aye, Uncle Beardo, living with you has its pros and cons. I enjoy all the good food you've bought me. However, I am always bloated. Now, even a chicken drumstick does not taste delicious anymore."

Xu Yi broke out in laughter. Suddenly, he recalled that Little Qiu might attend school in Furong Town. He queried, "Little Qiu, what's Grandpa doing now? Please bring him out for a discussion on finding you a school in this town."
