Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 237: 237 This is just an egg

Mu Hanyan, of course, noticed Fourth Miss Zhao and Uncle Zhao in the far distance behind her, but she still nonchalantly continued to knead the walnut and feed it to Star Illusion Thousand Machine.

”Do you want me to take care of those two idiots for you?” Star Illusion Thousand Machine, always in an exceptionally good mood while eating walnuts, was even more eager and proactive.

”No need, they’re just clowns. If they dare to bother me again, just watch me not kill them.” Mu Hanyan’s eyebrows didn’t even furrow as she crushed a walnut and continued feeding Star Illusion Thousand Machine, then added, ”No, I shouldn’t kill them right away, what fun would there be in that? Life would get boring after.”

Star Illusion Thousand Machine silently ate the walnuts, already accustomed to Mu Hanyan’s mischievous badness.

Mu Hanyan ignored those two idiots and went straight back to the City Lord’s Mansion. After eating a lavish breakfast prepared by Xixi the next morning, she continued to torture the old god, oh no, I mean, she immersed herself in studying Hand Formations at the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce.

While Mu Hanyan was solely focused on tormenting the old god—oh no, while Mu Hanyan was solely focused on studying Hand Formations—in the secret room of Zhou Family Restaurant, several young faces wore expressions of confusion.

”Uncle Zhao, is this the egg you were talking about?” Young Master Zhou, Zhou Qi, pursed his lips, his tone skeptical and disdainful.

Yes, in front of them was an egg, about the size of a quail egg, covered in strange patterns.

”Yes, this is the egg.” Zhao Sinin somewhat disapproved of the term uncle, didn’t it create a gap between him and Ling Xian’s sister? Was he that old?

However, knowing that Fourth Miss Zhao and Zhou Qi were allies, he didn’t lose his temper and instead answered proudly.

”This is just a quail, right? Even if Mu Hanyan is stupid, she wouldn’t spend a lot of money on a quail egg.” Zhou Qi picked up the quail egg, scratching his head as he spoke.

”What quail egg? Didn’t you see these patterns?” Zhao Sinin snatched the egg back, speaking irritably, ”You’re clueless, it’s clearly a Griffin Egg, how could it be a quail egg!”

”A Griffin Egg? Impossible, I’ve heard that Griffins are super Exotic Beasts that only the Royal Family can domesticate. How could you possibly have a Griffin Egg? Plus, I heard Griffins are huge, the egg should be big, too. Isn’t this one a bit too small?” Fourth Miss Zhao chimed in, clearly as skeptical as Zhou Qi.

”Xian’er sister doesn’t know, although Griffins are huge, the eggs they lay are the same size as quail eggs.” If Zhou Qi had been speaking, Uncle Zhao would have definitely exploded in anger, but because it was Fourth Miss Zhao, his tone became extremely gentle.

Fourth Miss Zhao and Zhou Qi stretched their necks to look more closely, indeed, although the egg was the same size as a quail egg, the patterns were distinctly different, all the lines shimmered with silver light, and when turned towards the light, golden Star Points could be seen.

”However, you’re not entirely wrong. This is indeed a Griffin Egg, but it’s the result of a Griffin mating with a quail. I’ve already had my uncle check it out, it’s confirmed there’s definitely a quail in there, not a Griffin.” Zhao Sinin continued.

Zhou Qi and Fourth Miss Zhao’s minds raced with images of the massive disparity in size between a Griffin and a quail, both feeling beads of sweat form on their foreheads. Could this really be possible? If it was true, that Griffin had some really bizarre tastes. And could two creatures with such vast differences in body size, actually mate successfully? But seeing Zhao Sinin so certain, and given the unusual patterns on that quail egg, they chose to believe it.
