As Su Yi said before, Xie Mingzhao was too concerned and restrained. Although he was angry and lost his temper before, he suppressed it after Huo Jun appeared, and he didn't even have the urge to confront him.

"Nothing, just a few words to Su Yi." Xie Mingzhao looked at the interaction between the two, took a step back, and his ugly face had returned to normal.

Huo Jun's expression was indifferent, and his tone was alienated and arrogant. "I know you and Yi Yi have known each other for a long time, but due to your previous relationship, I think you should avoid suspicion in the future. What do you think?"

Xie Mingzhao pursed his lips and did not respond to his words directly. He just nodded slightly, said goodbye to Su Yi, and turned away. No one cared about him as when he came.

Huo Jun narrowed his eyes and stared at his back. Once there were no outsiders around, he could not keep up his indifferent and reserved attitude in front of Su Yi, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "What does he mean? Does he agree to keep a distance from you, or is he just fooling me?"

"Whether he is fooling me or not, we will know when we see if he will show up again." Su Yi finally understood after comparing that Huo Jun's ice cream balls were bigger than hers, but the total number was not as many as hers, and the varieties were not as complete as hers. All in all, hers were still richer in flavor.

Hearing this, Huo Jun sat next to her and said secretly: "You said before that he wouldn't bother you. If I hadn't appeared just now, he would definitely bother you. So if you meet him again in the future, remember to avoid him and don't talk to him."

Speaking of this, Su Yi still felt a little regretful. If Huo Jun hadn't appeared just now, maybe she would have given Xie Mingzhao a profound "lesson". She wanted to beat him up for a long time.

She ate ice cream and responded casually: "I know, I know."

Huo Jun heard it and became even more worried. He made a unilateral decision that whenever he was free, he would always watch over Su Yi to avoid giving some scheming people a chance to take advantage of her.

On the weekend, the two went to the other side of the capital star as planned, a vast grassland.

Su Yi only heard Huo Jun say that there was an animal here whose meat was extremely delicious, so she lay in ambush with great interest, intending to ambush and hunt it. However, she never expected that what finally appeared in the hunting range was an extremely huge monster beetle!

She stood there motionless, watching Huo Jun shoot out like a spring, knocking down the beetle with a neat move, and then cutting a large piece of fresh meat from the beetle's back between the two huge shoulder blades, and said as if to take credit: "The meat in this part is the essence of its whole body."

Su Yi pointed at the huge corpse and accused: "Didn't you tell us in advance that we want to eat bugs? Is this a member of the insect tribe?"

Huo Jun shuddered as if he thought of something, showing an expression that he couldn't bear to recall. "Although insect tribes can be eaten, believe me, the taste makes people prefer to starve to death than to take a second bite. This is not a bug, its scientific name is thick-backed iron-armored cattle, and it eats grass."

Su Yi looked at her with a look of "don't tease me". She looked at that weird-looking thing and thought it looked a bit like everything except a cow! We can't force it to be classified as a cow just because it eats grass, right?

However, she had already experienced the strange species in this world. As long as they were edible and delicious, she could completely ignore their appearance and names.

The two of them started a fire on the spot. Huo Jun sliced ​​the meat into thin slices and roasted it on the fire. The fresh and plump aroma overflowed, making Su Yi forget her dislike for its appearance.

She clapped her hands and was about to feast on it, but suddenly she realized something and looked up at the calm sky.

Huo Jun made the same move, only a little slower than her.

Su Yi complained, "Every time there's something delicious, something goes wrong."

As soon as she finished speaking, a well-organized fleet of flying ships suddenly appeared behind the clouds. The fleet approached from far away. In a few breaths, it came above the two people's heads, spread out in a circle, and landed slowly, just surrounding the two people in the middle.

Su Yi looked around the situation and asked Huo Jun, "What big shot did you offend?"

Such a well-trained fleet is not something that ordinary nobles can command.

Huo Jun's brows were furrowed tightly, and his face was unusually stern. Hearing her question, he said with a bit of humor: "If possible, I just want to provoke you."

"Don't just talk, help me grill the meat first." Su Yi ordered him righteously.

Teams of guards marched in neat steps from the flying ship, and in a blink of an eye, the two of them were surrounded tightly.

When he saw the flying ship appear, Huo Jun tensed up and was ready to go, but when he heard Su Yi instructing him to grill the meat, he paused for a moment, and actually picked up the tools and continued what he had just done.

As the meat was grilling, perhaps influenced by Su Yihun's nonchalant attitude, he relaxed and was in the mood to chat, "Do you want to guess which big shot it is?"

Su Yi stared at the meat slices intently, only giving him a little glance, and said quite reasonably, "To be honest, I have guessed your situation a long time ago, but I saw that you didn't mention it, so I pretended not to know."

Huo Jun was stunned again when he heard this, and then he said with a smile, "Then I have to thank you for giving me face."

While he was speaking, his hands did not stop moving. He put the cooked meat slices on a plate and handed it to Su Yi.

Su Yi couldn't wait to take the first bite. The rich aroma of fat and the tenderness of gravy melted in her mouth. The meat was plump and firm without any fishy smell. It was indeed worthy of the word "essence" as Huo Jun said.

She finished a piece herself and stuffed a mouthful for Huo Jun. Then she asked, "It doesn't look like they are going to take action. It seems that they want to ask you to go. Do you want to go?"

Just after she finished speaking, a person came down from one of the flying ships.

Su Yi thought he was a key figure, but after taking a look, she found that the other party was at most the leader of this group of guards, but he was very pretentious.

Huo Jun didn't even look at the man, but just asked Su Yi: "Do you think I should go?"

Su Yi said truthfully: "If you don't want to go, these people may not be able to invite you. However, if they fail, there will be others who will come."

Huo Jun is very strong now, but not strong enough to do whatever he wants by himself. After all, in front of absolute power, the power of a single person still seems insignificant.

Su Yi may be able to do whatever she wants, and even kill the scumbag emperor to solve Huo Jun's problem from the root, but she will not do that. In her eyes, the emperor is not a person, but a machine to maintain the stability of the empire and protect the lives of the people. She can despise him, call him a scumbag, and complain that he has holes in his brain, but no matter what, she will not plunge the entire empire into turmoil for her own selfish desires and treat the survival of countless people as a joke.

The last person to get off the flying ship finally spoke, and said arrogantly that someone wanted to see Huo Jun.

The two still ignored him. Huo Jun said, "Do you want to go with me?"

Su Yi shrugged lightly, "Why not? In fact, look at it in a positive way. You are the one who benefits the most from this trip. Since he wants to see you, it means that he has already acknowledged your intentions. By then, your status will be very different."

"I don't care." Huo Jun didn't care.

Su Yi stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth and said, "Young people should not be so stubborn. Sometimes you can take advantage of the situation. You have come to where you are today by yourself. Who can recognize your own ability? But in the future, you still have to fight alone, which is much more difficult than before. The most critical point is that if you rely on yourself alone, how long do you need to fight to reject the situation today?"

Huo Jun was silent for a while.

Su Yi added: "This is not a sign of weakness, nor is it something shameful. It's just a strategy. We should grow by relying on his momentum until we have enough ability to compete with him. It does not mean we can sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor. If you do not make corresponding efforts and do not have the strength to match it, even if you are pushed to the throne, you will be pulled down by others sooner or later."

The people waiting on the side were obviously impatient, but due to the orders, they had to continue standing there.

Huo Jun thought for a long time and said, "Then let's go and take a look?"

Su Yi nodded, "Since it's hard to refuse, let's go and see what he is up to. Business requires mutual consent, let alone recognizing someone as your father. If you don't want to pay attention to him, let's go when we get there."

Huo Jun looked at her pitifully, "If I get stuck in it, remember to pick me up."

Su Yi glanced at him, "Have our roles been reversed? It's okay for me to pick you up, but just call me dad first."

"..."

Huo Jun couldn't help but hold his forehead and ponder, why should he call her dad if the roles are reversed, has she always wanted to call him dad? !
