Fang Qingyue's heart sank suddenly and she sighed softly.
She didn't open the door immediately, but stood there thinking for a moment, then opened the door slightly and asked calmly, "Master Li, what can I do for you?"
When Li Chengfeng saw her open the door, a smile appeared on his face and he looked calm, as if he had expected her to be here.
He waved his hand and said in a bold voice, "Miss Fang, you are really good at hiding."
"I went down the mountain this morning and searched for a long time before I found out you were here. I even sent several brothers to ask from house to house before I found the exact place."
"I didn't expect you to hide from me?"
Fang Qingyue frowned and said in a cold tone: "If you don't have anything important to do, please go back."
"I haven't been feeling well these days, so I can't see any guests."
She wanted to close the door, but Li Chengfeng was quick-witted and quickly stretched out his hand to block the door. He said with a smile, "Don't worry, Miss Fang, I'm not here to disturb you this time."
"I...thought you must not have eaten well these past few days, so I just hunted some game in the mountains and brought it down specially to give to you."
As he spoke, Li Chengfeng pulled out a hare and a few pheasants from behind his back and shook them proudly: "Look, these are all fresh, I shot them myself."
"Rabbit meat can replenish the body, and pheasant can nourish the blood. You can make soup with it to nourish your body."
Fang Qingyue looked at the prey in his hand and couldn't help feeling helpless.
She had no intention of paying attention to Li Chengfeng at all, and what's more, the last thing she wanted now was to have anything to do with him.
So she said coldly, "Master Li, I don't need these. I don't have any food to treat you. Please go back."
After she finished speaking, she tried to close the door again, but Li Chengfeng still blocked it tightly, the smile on his face not diminishing at all: "Miss Fang, don't refuse."
"I know you have some misunderstandings about me, but I really want to give you something this time, and I don't intend to stay at your house."
"Use these wild game to make soup. Once the soup is ready, we can have a good chat."
Fang Qingyue felt helpless when she saw that he didn't care about her indifferent attitude.
She always hated such forced intrusion. Although Li Chengfeng showed some sincerity when he was in the mountain village, she did not like his behavior.
So, she simply said directly: "Master Li, if you really want to send something, just put it down. I have no shortage of food here, so you don't need to worry about it."
Li Chengfeng saw her cold attitude and his expression froze for a moment, a trace of grievance flashing in his eyes: "Miss Fang, are you going to ignore me after coming down the mountain?"
"I made this especially for you on the mountain, but you didn't even give me a chance to come in and sit down."
Fang Qingyue remained calm and replied calmly, "Boss, it's not convenient for my family to entertain you. Please forgive me."
Li Chengfeng sighed, shook his head and said, "Okay, okay, since you won't let me in, I'll just grill it outside."
"I really don't believe that I roasted this rabbit and you wouldn't be greedy!"
After saying that, he actually stopped trying to enter the house.
Instead, he walked to the open space at the door, took out the tinder and dry firewood he carried with him, and started building a fire to prepare to roast the rabbit.
Fang Qingyue felt a headache when she saw him being so familiar, but she could do nothing about it.
She wanted to just close the door and ignore him, but Li Chengfeng seemed determined to "eat for free" at her doorstep, and she might not be able to drive him away even if she closed the door.
Li Chengfeng sat by the fire, skillfully cleaned the hare, then skewered it with branches and roasted it over the fire.
He would look up at the closed door from time to time, with a bit of pride: "Miss Fang, this is the wild rabbit that I, Li Chengfeng, roasted myself. You can't eat such delicious food outside."
Soon, the aroma of rabbit meat gradually spread. Fang Qingyue stood behind the door, smelling the aroma of barbecued meat. Although she was a little shaken in her heart, she forced herself to ignore it.
Li Chengfeng has always been a rogue. If you open the door and answer him, he will never stop.
After a while, Li Chengfeng's voice could be heard from outside: "Miss Fang, can you really bear to let me eat roasted rabbit alone outside?"
"Don't you want to try it? I grilled it to perfection, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."
The aroma outside the door drifted in slowly with the wind. The burnt aroma of barbecue stimulated her nose, causing her already unstable emotions to begin to waver slightly.
Coupled with her sensitivity to smells during pregnancy, Fang Qingyue's hunger gradually intensified.
"If I don't go out now, he'll probably roast me until dark," Fang Qingyue thought helplessly.
She took a deep breath and finally pushed the door open.
Li Chengfeng, who was outside the door, was expertly flipping a roasted rabbit. Seeing Fang Qingyue finally open the door and come out, a smug smile immediately appeared on his face. "Miss Fang, how is it? Smelling this aroma, you finally couldn't resist, right?"
Fang Qingyue ignored his teasing, just glanced at him indifferently and walked to the fire.
She looked calm, and had a plan in mind. She just wanted to finish the meal and let him leave quickly.
Seeing her approach, Li Chengfeng quickly took the rabbit off the fire and deftly tore off a few pieces of meat and handed them over: "Come, come, try my cooking."
"You treated me in the mountains, so this is my way of repaying you."
Fang Qingyue frowned, took the piece of barbecue handed to her, and looked down.
The meat is golden in color, with a strong aroma. It looks crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, which is really tempting.
She originally didn't plan to taste it, but seeing Li Chengfeng staring at her, if she refused at this moment, this man would probably be even more difficult to deal with.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally tore off a small piece and put it in her mouth.
