Chapter 73 Is he treating her like a lackey?



Although Xiao Jinhan had said he would use wild boar meat to replace meals, he rarely came to the Su family's house for meals, especially for breakfast, which he almost never did.

After finishing her meal, Su Hua strolled to her little wooden house and saw that the fence gate outside was wide open.

There were still some half-cut firewood scattered on the ground.

What stands out most is a row of dried rabbits laid out on the pile of firewood.

At a glance, there are at least eighteen, if not twenty.

Even after the rabbit legs were dried, the biceps were still clearly visible, which was enough to prove that they must have been extremely fat when they were alive. At least, they were not in the same weight class as the eight rabbits in my own rabbit pen.

"Good heavens, did this guy disturb a rabbit burrow?" Su Hua looked at the plump rabbits and silently mourned for them.

It seems that whether it's a wild rabbit or a pheasant from Fuhu Mountain, once they encounter this man, they really can't escape. They can only obediently be eaten, and not just any wild rabbit, but the whole family is wiped out.

However, this dried rabbit would probably be very fragrant if stir-fried with some garlic leaves and dried red chilies.

Alternatively, you can cut it into small pieces about the size of a thumb and make a steamed assortment of cured wild boar meat with it; that would be quite delicious.

"Knock knock knock..."

Su Hua stared at the dried rabbit for a long time, thinking of several ways to cook it, but she still couldn't see Xiao Jinhan.

Even when they knocked on the door, no one answered.

Just as she was about to turn and leave.

Suddenly, a loud bang echoed from inside the wooden house.

"Young Master Xiao, is that you?" The girl frowned, but after a loud bang, there was a long silence.

Just then, a mountain breeze blew in, causing a crack to appear in the door. Through the crack, one could see that the main room contained only a table and a chair, an absurdly simple space.

Su Hua touched the door and couldn't help but think of the burglary at her house last night. Xiao Jinhan often went to Fuhu Mountain, so wouldn't it be easier for thieves to target the house if no one was looking after it? Thinking of this, she pushed open the door and tiptoed inside.

Just to be safe, he also picked up a large piece of wood and carried it in his hand.

Ever since drinking the spatial water droplet, Su Hua's hearing has improved significantly, and she was able to immediately discern that the sound was coming from behind the main room.

She quietly walked to the back door of the main room and grasped the bolt.

The other hand had already begun to gather strength.

Thud!

The door had just opened.

Then there was a 'whoosh' sound.

Immediately, two or three drops of water splashed up, landing directly on the girl's almond-shaped eyes, like a magnifying glass, making everything before her eyes crystal clear.

In the mirror, beneath a large tree that takes two people to encircle, sits a steaming wooden tub. In the center of the tub, a tall, slender figure is faintly visible through the mist.

A gentle breeze blew, scattering the mist, revealing the man completely naked. His thick, ink-black hair was wet and draped over his shoulders, his broad back and slender waist partially hidden beneath it, water droplets dripping from his hair and running down his waistline...

Gurgle.

Su Hua silently swallowed.

This man, without clothes on, is so alluring!

Just seeing his back was enough to make one's forehead turn red.

I can't even imagine how magnificent it must be from the front.

Her thoughts were racing.

Then there was another splash.

She looked up and saw the man turn around.

Wheat-colored and crimson clashed in an instant, splashing water droplets, some landing on the girl's face, others running down the man's V-line and into the dark, seductive zone.

The warm touch left Su Hua's mind blank, and a sweet, metallic taste filled her nostrils.

Clang!

The wooden stick in his hand and the man both froze, slipping out of his grasp and smashing onto his toes.

"Ouch...it hurts so much..."

The girl gasped in pain and tried to kick the wood away, but her heel landed on a patch of water droplets on the ground.

The slippery soles of the shoes, combined with the wooden floorboards, caused Su Hua to fall backward, her feet slumped against the ground.

The scene before her eyes rushed past rapidly, and the wind howled in her ears. Su Hua frantically flailed her arms, and finally she simply closed her eyes tightly, hugged her head, and stopped struggling.

He deserved to be thrown to the ground for peeping at a beautiful woman bathing; if not her, who would he throw at?

As long as I don't fall back into the hands of an idiot.

Until, a deep, tender voice came.

"How is Miss Su? Is her foot injured?"

The voice, like jade beads, gently sprinkled in Su Hua's ear, sending a shiver down her spine.

She peeked through a crack in her eye and saw a strikingly handsome face magnified before her. His brow bone was long and arched, his features cold and hard, a perfect representation of the ascetic type, except for... his slightly parted lips, which were wet, as if tempting one to commit a crime.

His eyes were deep, yet clearer than spring water.

Su Hua was stunned for a moment; she seemed to see herself reflected in those eyes.

Looking down, she finally realized that she was being held in the man's arms, her cheek pressed tightly against his chest.

"I, I, I'm fine." The girl's face flushed bright red, and her usually eloquent tongue twisted into a mess, unable to utter a coherent sentence for a long time. "Young Master Xiao... please put me down."

Even after losing weight, he still weighs around 200 pounds; it's truly remarkable that he can lift him up.

Anyone else would probably have been crushed into a meat patty.

Thinking of this, Su Hua suddenly recalled the slender waist she had just seen. His waist was only slightly larger than an A4 sheet of paper, yet he didn't even pant when he hugged her. This man must have a very thin waist.

Xiao Jinhan glanced at the water droplets on the ground, turned around, picked up Su Hua, found a clean stool, and then put her down. His movements were so gentle that Su Hua felt like a fragile doll.

“Well… I…” Su Hua looked up and saw the man wearing clothes that were loosely draped over his shoulders.

Through her half-closed clothes, one could vaguely see tiny water droplets sliding down her wheat-colored skin. Wildness and unruliness surged forth like an attack, making her blush to the roots of her neck. "Since Young Master Xiao... since you have things to attend to, I won't disturb you any longer."
