Ya Zi shamelessly clung to the fruit and refused to let go, even going so far as to claim that he was helping others share the burden.
Yue Jiuling was exasperated by his endless stream of fallacies. She simply grabbed most of the fruit back and said, "Tsk~ How can you do this? The chefs here will be angry tomorrow if you do this~"
"Alright then, I'll take two more with me. You know how remote this place is, I can't find anything to eat. What if I get hungry tonight?"
Listening to Ya Zi's pitiful words, and knowing that this silly girl was a glutton who would easily get hungry, Yue Jiuling finally let Ya Zi take some fruit with her.
"Okay, okay~ Take it, but don't take too much, it'll be very obvious~"
This wasn't the first time Yue Jiuling had eaten offerings; she had eaten other people's offerings before. But this was the first time she had eaten offerings so excessively. So when she left, she made Ya Zi sneak away, because she was afraid of being discovered.
When they left the temple, the film crew outside was also about to wrap up, so by the time they came out it was around eight or nine o'clock.
"That's enough! You're eating so much, be careful you don't get hungry again in the middle of the night."
Seeing Ya Zi still eating non-stop, Yue Jiuling was exasperated. She said, "I told you to eat more tonight, but you wouldn't listen. Now you deserve to starve!"
"It's only because the dish wasn't good enough—otherwise I could definitely eat five bowls of rice!"
Ya Zi said somewhat angrily, "That dish was terrible! We're never going to that restaurant again!"
Speaking of the restaurant, Yue Jiuling wasn't very satisfied either. She thought the chefs there were probably novices, as the dishes were just so-so. Even she, who wasn't a picky eater, found them unappetizing, let alone young master Ya Zi.
"Okay, the food there isn't very good, but it's cheap. Never mind, let's get started."
Yue Jiuling pointed to a small grove in front of her and said, "There is a bamboo grove and half a forest there, but that thing will definitely go into the forest after it comes out, because there are more ingredients there."
"Okay, then let's just go inside and wait for them to come to us."
Ya Zi agreed to wait in the woods.
Fortunately, no one lives nearby, so if there is any noise at night, no one will notice.
Yue Jiuling circled around in the woods, then plucked a long foxtail grass and chewed on it before leaping up a very tall tree.
"Hey, Ryuji, would you like to come up and sit down?"
Yue Jiuling lay on a tree branch, looking at the big moon in the sky. She called out to Ya Zi, who was still searching for something in the grass, "Come up! There are bugs down there, they'll bite!"
"Okay, I got it. I'll be up there soon."
As Ya Zi bent down to pluck some flowering grass, he responded to Yue Jiu Ling. He nervously wove something with the grass, his smile carrying a hint of suspicious shyness.
Two minutes later, Yue Jiuling, who was in the tree, felt someone else beside her. Without turning her head, she said, "What are you doing down there? There are so many little bugs. Aren't you afraid they'll bite you?"
"Don't worry, I have thick skin, and with spiritual energy protecting me, they can't bite me!"
Ya Zi carefully took out the result of her work, a crooked and ugly little flower wreath, and gently placed it on Yue Jiu Ling's head.
"Huh? What is that?"
Feeling something suddenly appear on her head, Yue Jiuling immediately reached out to take it, only to find it was a crooked and ugly little flower wreath.
"Eek~ What are you doing? Why did you give me this, and it's so ugly~"
Yue Jiuling looked at the flower wreath in her hand with amusement: "You searched for so long down there just for this?"
When Ya Zi heard Yue Jiuling say the flower wreath was ugly, he became a little embarrassed. He pretended to be casual as usual and said, "Yeah~ I, I was just so bored, and the cell phone signal here is bad, so I wanted to do something~ Hehe~"
"Okay, I knew it. If we weren't already so close, I would have thought you were trying to pick me up. Luckily, I was quick-witted and guessed it already~ Hahaha~"
Yue Jiuling laughed and returned the flower wreath to Ya Zi.
