Chapter 44: Joey confess his love
Chapter 44: Joey confess his love
Joey stood there still while trying to calm his mind.
” What is so bad about having such a cute little daughter?” He thought and spoke to his mind while calming his mind.
At that time, the little girl was chasing the little white tiger. She had done that for an hour. She became angry.
” Stop running little Jizhi, otherwise I will teach you a lesson later.” She shouted at the little tiger. The little tiger shivered and started running more quickly.
That time, a force attracts the tiger and a hang grip on her tail.
” Little girl, aunty caught your pet. Take it.” Ai gave the little tiger to her.
” Hahaha, aunty you are the best. Come here Jizhi.” The little girl laughed and held the tiger into her embrace. She then started pulling the ears of the tiger. The tiger growled with pain.
” Joey, since you know she is yours. Why don’t you name her? She is very strong for her age. She can hold a lvl 3 beast against her will. ” Long Ai suggested.
Joey nodded at her.
” Little girl, do you have a photo of your mama?” He asked while he patted her head.
” Papa, I just have that photo of you. If you like me to draw mama’s photo, I can do it for you.” She replied sweetly.
Joey took out a paper and a drawing pencil and gave them to her.
She happily took and started drawing. Fifteen minutes later, she said, ” Done papa. Look at it.” Then she passed the paper to him.
Joey took it and looked at it excitingly. Then a weird smile appeared on his face.
” Good girl. You can draw really well. You stayed at that cave for a month alone. So, I named you ‘Xiuying’ meaning brave and beautiful.” He said out loud and looked at her dotingly.
” Xiuying Xiuying Xiuying. Hahaha, papa, I like the name.” The little girl started jumping around the room happily. The little tiger also roared and licked at her face. After repeated failure of escape from her, she began to curry favor with the little girl.
” Joey, can I see what she is drawing?” Long Ai asked curiously. He gave the drawing to her.
” Wow, your wife is very beautiful.”
” Sister Ai, stop joking. That is just a drawing of a kid. Also, if I consider having a wife, it shall be you, not others.” Joey said seriously.
She blushed and looked into his eyes. They both looked at each other’s eyes.
” Brat, stop joking with me.”
” Sister Ai, I am telling you the truth. I really like you.” Joey confessed to her.
” Brat that is enough.” She said and waved at him. Then, he was sent off the pagoda.
” Why is my heart beating so loudly? I never felt like this before. It’s all that brat’s mistakes.” She murmured and tried to calm herself. But, the words of Joey ‘ I really like you’ keep remembering in her mind.
” What is wrong with me today?” She said to herself.
The little girl saw everything. She walked toward her and patted her head.
” Aunt Ai, are you sick? Where is my papa?” She asked and looked around the pagoda for Joey.
” Little Xiuying, aunty is fine. And your papa went out for some business. He will come back to see you soon.” She said and caressed her hair. She took out a chicken leg and gave it to her. Xiuying took the chicken leg happily and ran away while holding the little tiger with her other hand.
Joey appeared before the room inside that cave.
” What is wrong with me today? I have said something I should not. This will be a bit awkward. Now, I have a daughter. But, I am just twelve years old. Anything is possible in this place.” Joey murmured to himself.
He then searched the room thoroughly and put most of the important things here inside his space ring. He found a letter inside the wooden box that her daughter took out his picture. He started reading the letter. The contents of the letter are very short and the details are as followed.
‘ Dear Joey,
She is your daughter. I have done what you have told me before. We will meet in the future, my love.’
“Who is she? So, this is her smell. So fragrance!” Joey asked himself. He smelled a scent of lavender from the letter. Then, he put the letter back in the wooden box and kept it inside his space ring.
” Time to leave. How is my sister doing?” He said quickly moving out of the cave.
It is already morning. So, he started running down the river stream.
Actually, this planet is very big. After traveling for a week, he saw a tall tower.
” Oh! Everyone must be there. I will go there.” Then Joey sprinted toward the tall tower.
Inside that tower, many youths were currently searching for treasures.
” Lucky that, all those above 20 years were trapped by the law inside this room. Now, all those treasures here will be in their pockets.” A youth said.
” True, even though they were our elders. They are too greedy. ” Another youth agreed.
” That princess Mie lien is already on the 6th floor. Lucky that she left something for us. Otherwise, we will get none.” Another young man said.
” Tch, we need to learn the law on every floor to further go up. Some of them even reached the 5th and 6th floors, but we are still here on the 2nd floor.” A girl from the Green nation said with scorn.
On the 1st floor, three youths are still there trying to comprehend the law inside the room. Suddenly, the door opens and Joey enters. The three youths looked at him at the same time. One of the youth is from the Fire nation that Joey had just beaten near the lake in the forest. Seeing Joey, he tried to run away.
” Hey, why are you trying to run away? Do you happen to see my sister in this tower?” Joey asked casually.
” Fifth prince, I have seen your sister some days before. She is already on the 6th floor ” He said and pointed at the wall. There is a small screen in the wall with the small structure of the tower. With many dots of different colors on them. He then explained the details of the matters inside this tower.
” Alright, you can sit back,” Joey said and infused his qi inside the screen in the wall. And an azure color dot appeared in it showing his presence. Then, he sat on the floor and started comprehending the law inside this room.
