The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 181

Daniel didn't expect the Sealed Dragon Grass wasn’t meant for him, leaving him a bit bummed. But Jessica didn't mind his mood and just carried on with her suggestion.

"Right, wasn’t the Dragon Pod meant to nurture the Seven Dragon Grass? Why not just put the Sealed Dragon Grass in there to grow?"

Her words sent a new wave of excitement through Daniel.

His eyes gleamed in anticipation as he asked, "Sweetheart, are you saying I should take care of the Sealed Dragon Grass?"

"You wish! Both the Sealed Dragon Grass and the Dragon Pod are under my watch."

"But what if I just want to take a peek, catch a whiff of the Sealed Dragon Grass? Could you hand it over then, honey?"

"We'll see!"

"See what? Whether I perform well in bed?"

"Get lost! In your dreams!"

Although Jessica retorted sharply, deep down, a tiny spark of hope flickered. If Daniel really did make a move on her, even if he tried to take advantage now, she knew she wouldn't resist much.

After spending some time with him, she realized Daniel's talents were as vast as the ocean. Daniel was amazing, good at everything he did.

He was a fantastic doctor, had a keen eye for antiques, was a master at Jade Gambling, and even excelled in combat!

Was there anything in this world he couldn't do?

Jessica unlocked the tiny golden padlock on the wooden box and lifted the lid with a snap. She half-expected the Sealed Dragon Grass inside to be a marvel to behold.

But what did she see? A shriveled, wilted little plant, pale and yellowish, looking very ordinary – no different than the weeds in a lawn.

As Jessica stared at the Sealed Dragon Grass, a bit of unease washed over her.
