Xu Ning took a sip of soup to disguise his feelings before responding, "Are you on your way here too?"

"Miss Xu guessed it right away." Jiang Yan raised the corner of his mouth and sat down directly opposite Xu Ning.

"I guess so." Xu Ning came from the other side, so naturally she wouldn't think that Jiang Yan was following her like last time, because Jiang Yan and the others didn't have that much ability.

However, what Xu Ning didn't guess was that Jiang Yan guessed that she would go to Fengcheng. He originally planned to wait for her in Fengcheng, but he didn't expect to meet her here.

"Miss Xu, do you mind if I stay in the cave for one night?" Jiang Yan asked very politely, and his subordinates also turned their eyes to her.

"As you please." The cave here was big enough, and Xu Ning and the two animals only occupied a corner.

Jiang Yan gestured to Jiang Yi, who quickly made the bed for him to rest. At this time, Xu Ning had just finished half a bowl of pheasant stewed with yam.

"Young Master Jiang, would you like a bowl?" She cooked a lot, and the fat fox's appetite was controlled by her. Xu Ning could not finish a large earthenware pot of pheasant stewed with yam.

Because Xu Ning didn't eat just the vegetables, she also ate them with steamed buns.

"Thank you, Miss Xu." After Jiang Yan finished speaking, Jiang Yi started to fill a bowl for Jiang Yan.

Xu Ning tucked into her own bed after eating her fill, leaving the rest for Jiang Yan and the others to deal with. She cooked the food, but she didn't wash the dishes.

Jiang Yan didn't eat much, and some was left over and shared by Jiang Yi and the others.

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Xu Ning tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. When Xu Ning turned over to face Jiang Yan, he saw Jiang Yan looking down at an account book or something.

Jiang Yan looked very serious, and his profile was very handsome, so Xu Ning couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.

"Miss Xu."

"Huh? What's wrong, Young Master Jiang?" Xu Ning realized that he was still staring at the other person and quickly looked away.

Jiang Yan's lips curled slightly, and he turned his head to look at Xu Ning, who had already turned over. "I have never introduced my calligraphy to Miss Xu."

"Your handwriting?"

"Yes, my name is Yan, and my courtesy name is Shaoheng. Miss Xu can call me by my courtesy name."

"Shao Heng..." When Xu Ning heard the name, he felt as if his mouth was burned, and his whole body felt very strange in an instant.

A glint flashed across Jiang Yan's eyes as he continued to coax her: "I often hear cousin Jiaojiao call you Ningning. Can I also call you Miss Xu the same way?"

"As long as you are happy." It's just a title. As a competent partner, she has always been flexible when it comes to making money.

The smile on Jiang Yan's face became even wider. His subordinates who were hiding to rest but had actually been peeking all the time dropped their jaws to the ground when they saw their young master's carefree attitude.

"Okay, Aning."

Not Ningning? That's fine, it's no different from how her former colleagues used to call her. Her former colleagues all used to call her by the last character of their names, Aning.

Xu Ning was very satisfied and began to fall asleep. Seeing that she was no longer talking, Jiang Yan thought she was asleep and did not call her again.

The night passed quickly. As soon as the sun rose, Xu Ning turned over and sat up, scratching his hair habitually, turning his already messy hair into a messy mess in an instant.

The ewe went out again, and the fat fox was still sleeping soundly. Xu Ning was just about to take out some food from the space when he turned his head unconsciously and met Jiang Yan's smiling eyes.

...Xu Ning froze and wanted to scream but she held it back.

"Aning is awake?" Jiang Yan's voice seemed to be filled with smile.

Xu Ning didn't brush her teeth and didn't want to open her mouth, so she nodded awkwardly. She must look very funny now, which is also good. It would be best if he would give up the idea after seeing it.

Thinking of this, Xu Ning took out a toothbrush and a cup from his backpack and squatted not far from the cave entrance to brush his teeth.

Her hair had been tied into a ponytail, and because she hadn't combed it, several strands of hair were hanging down. Xu Ning simply lifted them up and tucked them behind her ears.

Xu Ning was brushing his teeth carelessly, and Jiang Yan was watching him openly. He had already washed up first. The toothbrush and toothpaste were sold in Happy Valley Industry, so he naturally had some too.

The noodles cooked by Jiang Yi were ready. Jiang Yi consciously served a bowl of noodles for Xu Ning, so that Xu Ning could eat it when he came in after brushing his teeth.

The ewe went out to look for food at dawn. This time the fat fox followed her and came back only after eating. The treasure box told Xu Ning the news, but Xu Ning ignored it. After drinking a glass of warm water, he started slurping noodles.

The noodles are also sold at Happy Valley. They are the instant noodles developed by Xu Ning and Da Sima. Just a handful is enough for everyone.

In addition to noodles, there are also rice noodles, instant noodles, noodle skins, and flat noodles. Each one is chewy and delicious. Jiangyan has almost bought up all the noodle products, leaving only a small part in the store as a special supply.

These noodle products are all wrapped in oil paper, and each package contains a packet of ingredients. They are very easy to cook, nutritious and suitable for travel and marching.

However, this is also due to the fact that there are sufficient raw materials. These things are only possible because of the high-yield crops that Xu Ning used.

Jiang Yan was eating noodles while thinking that Xu Ning, who was sitting opposite him, had already scooped up the poached egg in the bowl, and his eyes lit up.

Jiang Yi even gave her a fried egg, which was very thoughtful of him.

Xu Ning ate with great relish and finished it in no time.

After finishing his meal, Xu Ning clapped his hands, stood up quietly, and said goodbye to Jiang Yan and the others: "I'm full, I won't disturb you anymore, I'm leaving first, bye."

Jiang Yan also put down his bowl and looked expectantly at Xu Ning, who had quickly put on the backpack. Xu Ning felt uncomfortable being looked at. "Jiang Shao... Zheng, is there anything else you want?"

"It's okay, Aning, be careful on the road." Jiang Yan's eyes were like a mirror, and his slight smile made Xu Ning's heart beat fast. Why was this person smiling at her so... so... strangely?

"Then I'm leaving. Goodbye, Jiang Shaoheng." Xu Ning waved his hand stiffly, and ran away with the sheep and the fox.

"Baby, it's scary when he looks at me like that, just like a male star in the movie, as if he can take away your soul. Although he looks really good when he smiles, even better than male stars, please don't smile at me next time, I can't stand it." Xu Ning, a straight woman who has been single for more than 30 years, kept complaining to the treasure chest.

On the main system page behind the treasure chest, Xu Huaiyuan sighed. What was he expecting?

After Xu Ning left, Jiang Yan and others also set off towards Fengcheng.

Xu Ning and Jiang Yan did not take the same route. Xu Ning did not plan to enter Fengcheng, she planned to pass by and go around it.

However, Jiang Yan's destination was Fengcheng. After five years, half of the forces in Fengcheng actually belonged to him.

Xu Ning has never dared to get too close to the crowd because he has a secret, and Jiang Yan has been traveling back and forth to expand his power for so many years because of his secret.
