My Wife Might Be a Saintess
Chapter 319 - 318: Does Food Have Anything to Do with Loving Su Qi?
High in the sky on their way back to the Holy Land, Qing Lian asked curiously, "Holy Sister, is this really okay? Letting Brother Jiang go."
Jingyue gazed at the distant clouds. "What’s wrong with it? We just need to fill a spot, anyway. Mages and us Cultivators aren’t part of the same system to begin with."
"But Brother Jiang is an ordinary person, isn’t he? And he isn’t a member of the Holy Land. Won’t this put a lot of pressure on him and his wife?" Qing Lian asked.
Jingyue smiled. "It’s hard to say. This has its pros and cons, but after careful consideration, I’ve concluded that the pros outweigh the cons.
As for the pressure, you don’t need to worry. To her husband, your senior sister is the best stress-relief medicine there is.
Besides, do you remember when he fought those Elements?
Perhaps he really can solve this problem.
Besides, I even left him a mask to hide his identity, so there shouldn’t be any issues."
Qing Lian said with admiration, "Holy Sister, you’ve really thought this through."
Jingyue gave a meaningful smile. "I have. I’ve thought about it a lot. But as long as they care for each other as they always have, then perhaps nothing else matters.
I will always support them, regardless of anyone’s status."
Qing Lian didn’t understand.
Just then, Jingyue said suddenly, "Junior Sister, I’m a little bored. Let’s do a livestream."
Qing Lian: "..."
’That’s why she had absolutely no idea what on earth was going through the Saintess’s mind.’

After spending some intimate time at home, Jiang Zuo really did head out for work.
It was the middle of the day. ’I really don’t want to just sleep until tomorrow. It’s such a waste of time.’
Besides, he had promised Jian Shisan he would deliver the Yongxi Flesh to Yue Xi. It would be best to get it done today.
In the end, Jiang Zuo called the Tofu Boss.
"Young friend? Is something the matter?" The Tofu Boss answered the call quickly.
Only then did Jiang Zuo remember. ’If I’d wanted Jian Shisan’s phone number, I could’ve just asked this guy for it. I really didn’t think of it back then.’
Then, Jiang Zuo asked, "Were you the one who sent Jian Shisan looking for Yongxi Flesh?"
The Tofu Boss on the other end of the line was stunned for a moment before he asked excitedly, "Fellow Daoist, you’ve seen Jian Shisan? Do you know where he went?"
"He went to undergo his Tribulation Crossing. It will take some time." Jiang Zuo got straight to the point. "I promised Jian Shisan I would help him get the Yongxi Flesh for Yue Xi. How do I send it to her?"
The Tofu Boss was shocked again. "Young friend, you found a Yongxi?"
The Tofu Boss felt like he was being bombarded with information.
’Jian Shisan is Crossing the Tribulation. He seems to be quite familiar with this young friend. This young friend knows about the Yongxi, and he even obtained its flesh.’
’How is this guy so formidable?’
Jiang Zuo said, "Just tell me what needs to be done."
After collecting his thoughts, the Tofu Boss said immediately, "Young friend, you can ship the Yongxi Flesh to me. I’ll prepare it and have it delivered to the Holy Land. It will be in Daoist Shisan’s name, of course."
"How should I ship it?"
"You’re with Tianhe Group, aren’t you, young friend? Tianhe Group has an express delivery service. You can ask them for expedited shipping. Just have them bill the shipping fee to me on delivery. My name carries enough weight for a request like that," the Tofu Boss said.
Jiang Zuo nodded. Since that was the case, he had no objections.
’Come to think of it, I’m not as thoughtful as Jian Shisan. I’ve never given anything like this to Su Qi.’
’But I truly do love Su Qi. And what you eat has nothing to do with love, does it?’
’I wonder if Su Qi will get angry if she finds out about this someday.’
After much hesitation, Jiang Zuo could only ask, "If I wanted a portion as well, could you have it delivered to me after it’s prepared?"
The Tofu Boss was taken aback. "Fellow Daoist, you have more?"
"A lot."
"If you can give me a piece, Fellow Daoist, I’ll waive the shipping and preparation fees entirely. I guarantee it’ll still be hot when it arrives." The Tofu Boss sounded slightly excited.
’He really wanted to try some for himself.’
’But the Yongxi Flesh from Jian Shisan was meant for Yue Xi, so he was too embarrassed to pinch a piece for himself.’
"No problem," Jiang Zuo said. "I’ll send over a whole leg. Divide it into three portions. When you deliver my portion, just give it to Jiu Xi and the others in your name."
"That’s not a problem. Wait a minute," the Tofu Boss said in astonishment. "A whole leg?"
"That’s right. I took all four of its limbs. Is there a problem?"
"..."
What could the Tofu Boss possibly say?
’A whole leg split three ways means I’ll get a huge portion. I should be happy about this.’

Arriving at Tianhe Group, Jiang Zuo found the express delivery office, which was located just above the warehouse.
After finding the right room, Jiang Zuo said directly, "I need to ship something to the Holy Land."
The setup was the same as the collection point where Jiang Zuo had picked up items before, with every package kept in isolation.
"The Holy Land? And the recipient’s name and contact information?" a female clerk asked.
This question stumped Jiang Zuo, however. He didn’t know the Tofu Boss’s actual name.
In the end, he could only give the name "Tofu Boss."
To his surprise, the clerk nodded and filled out the form.
Jiang Zuo: "..."
’So his name is actually Tofu Boss?’
After she finished filling out the information, the clerk looked at Jiang Zuo. "And the item?"
At her words, Jiang Zuo took out a leg several meters long. One glance was enough to tell that this was no leg from an ordinary Spirit Beast.
The clerk was genuinely startled. She had assumed from his ordinary appearance that he wouldn’t be shipping anything special.
’I can’t believe it’s a leg from such a powerful Spirit Beast.’
The clerk then said, "Express delivery should arrive within two hours. The price is one Eighth-Grade Spirit Stone. Sir, will you be paying now, or will it be paid on delivery?"
"Paid on delivery."
’An Eighth-Grade. There’s no way I can afford that.’
’I do have one Eighth-Grade stone left, but I’m definitely not using it to pay for shipping.’
’The Tofu Boss is a Tier Seven on the verge of Entering Dao; he shouldn’t be short on Eighth-Grade Spirit Stones.’
Just as the clerk was about to ask if Jiang Zuo was a Tianhe Group employee, another staff member suddenly walked in.
He was carrying a medium-sized box.
He placed the box on the counter and said, "This is for a long-running promotion from management. If anyone can solve this within three days, they get one free shipment."
"Solve it in two days, and you’ll get three free shipments. Solve it within one day, and you’ll get ten."
"This applies to both prepaid and collect-on-delivery shipments."
The clerk said at once, "Understood. I’ll post the announcement in a moment."
She then turned back to Jiang Zuo. "Sir, may I ask if you’re..."
She trailed off, stunned. She realized Jiang Zuo was staring at the box.
Jiang Zuo, still looking at the box, asked, "Has the promotion started already?"
Hearing his question, they knew what he was planning to do.
The staff member who brought the box in immediately said, "You can, but it’s limited to Tianhe Group employees. Outsiders aren’t eligible."
After all, people other than Tianhe Group employees used the service; it was open to the entire Cultivation Realm.
Jiang Zuo nodded. He had indeed seen an identity verification scanner on the box. He took out his work ID and swiped it lightly over the device.
"BEEP. Identity verified. If the challenge is failed, all challenge eligibility will be erased from this ID, with no further attempts permitted."
Jiang Zuo: "..."
The device’s automated response took him by surprise.
