Chapter 338: Mortar

"When will you return to Earth?" the empress asked Ren Baqian just as they sat down in the courtyard.

"I will return tonight," Ren Baqian replied instantly.

"Bring back some alcohol, popcorn, candy, chocolate, and television series for me…" The empress folded her fingers as she named the items she wanted.

Ren Baqian was incredulous.

Your Majesty, we are in the midst of a war! Can you be more serious?

The metal chain rose from Ren Baqian's head and twisted itself. Just when it formed an S shape, the metal chain sensed the empress's movement and hurriedly retracted. However, the empress still managed to grab the top of the metal chain and tugged at it.

"What is this?"

"Eh? Your Majesty, gentler, gentler. You must never break it. Otherwise…" Ren Baqian spoke halfway and found that something was amiss. He quickly retracted his words and hiccupped due to the hastiness.

"What will happen to me?" the empress suspiciously asked.
