Xin Huohuo's plan was simple: keep Yan Huo unconscious for a little while, long enough for her to steal the seal and investigate the crypt again.
She wasn't actually much of a schemer, but her accidental failures while experimenting with the recipe had only served to whet Yan Huo's appetite. He had secretly gritted his teeth, vowing he would eat this dish no matter what.
She didn't know if all horses were lightweights, but Yan Huo certainly was. That was back when he was in his adult form—he was the type who was fine as long as he didn't drink, but would get wasted the moment he started. Xin Huohuo had once heard Xuan Liu mock him for it, saying he loved to challenge people to drinking contests despite his low tolerance, getting so drunk every single time that he couldn't tell which way was up. Xuan Liu even suspected he was allergic to alcohol. 'Now that he's in a child's form, does that mean he can't touch alcohol at all?'
「Two days later, that question was answered.」
