Chapter 118 Skinning



"Are you jealous?" Qiao Yuchen thought the woman looked quite cute like this.

"No, I just think that Ouran is capable, and it would be better for you to cooperate with her."

"No need." Qiao Yuchen's expression changed instantly, and he stood up with a cold face. "We'll leave in a bit."

Chen Siyuan wasn't afraid. "What, did I hit the nail on the head?"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know."

"How could I say such nonsense? Are you planning to give her a peaceful and prosperous era?" Chen Siyuan deliberately misinterpreted what someone meant.

It started as just a joke, but now seeing the man's expression change makes it even more interesting.

He had just rescued Cuilan outside and was bringing fruit to express his gratitude when he overheard this conversation, which made her nervous.

All the girls in Yuyuan had feelings for their master, but none of them were as direct as Cuilan.

Even she had secretly liked her master for many years, but unfortunately, her master never gave her a second glance. She originally thought that she was special in her master's eyes, which was why he gave her such an important task. But since seeing Chen Siyuan, she is now quite sure that she may have been thinking too much.

Hearing these words, she couldn't help but want to hear what her master had to say.

Unfortunately, they didn't wait for him; instead, they saw a figure walking out angrily.

She quickly lowered her head.

It turns out that the reason the master wasn't angry was because the person who angered him was different.

......

Soon, Chen Siyuan left again in a carriage.

This time we're closer to the capital.

Despite traveling for only a day, a series of incidents delayed their journey.

At noon, they encountered two groups of people blocking their way.

This time, Chen Siyuan and Qiao Yuchen sat steadily in the carriage, seemingly oblivious to what was happening outside.

When the carriage stopped, Qiao Yuchen lifted the curtain and said, "Men, skin these people and send them to the madam's courtyard so she can have a good look at them."

Chen Siyuan suddenly looked up at the tall man standing beside her.

Peeling?

Once the skin is peeled off, it's just a bloody mess; who would be able to tell who it is?

More importantly, wouldn't an ordinary person be terrified to death if they saw this scene?

Looking at the man sitting in front of me, whom I knew well, I could sense his dark side at this moment.

My heart was pounding fiercely.

I don't know who the lady he was talking about is, but she must be a very important person.

"What, are you scared?" Qiao Yuchen said, pulling down the curtain, still unable to bear letting the woman see that cruel side.

"A little." Chen Siyuan felt a chill run down her spine. Sure enough, Qiao Yuchen was not a kind person. It was too risky to cooperate with someone like that.

This is already like this before we've even reached the capital; who knows how dangerous it will be once we arrive?

"Not bad, you still know fear." Qiao Yuchen turned to look at the woman whose face was slightly pale. Not bad, she still knows fear. Let's see if she dares to push other women to her side.

That wretched woman! If she doesn't like being touched, she should just say so. Why does she have to drag other women over here?

Does she really see him as such a casual person?

Chen Siyuan couldn't help but shudder and looked at the man, "Anyone should know fear, okay?"

Qiao Yuchen's eyes flashed, and he laughed, raising his hand to ruffle the woman's slightly messy hair.

This girl is very mischievous. Even though she's scared, she deliberately says that she's not human.

This woman is incredibly bold.

Chen Siyuan was stunned.

She really disliked his habit of constantly touching her head, and although she tried to move away several times, she couldn't escape.

"Just talk, don't touch my hair like that."

"I'm not casual."

"Then why..." Chen Siyuan looked at the man, about to retort, but met his big smile and couldn't say anything.

She tried to tell herself to keep looking at the smiling face; her earlier expression was too fierce, and she worried that looking at it too much would give her nightmares.

What should have been a day's journey was disrupted by a series of events.

It's not a big deal, but it's still quite upsetting.

By evening, they had only gone halfway.

As darkness fell, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Chen Siyuan thought something unexpected had happened again, but he didn't want to hear the man speak.

"There's a dilapidated temple up ahead. Let's rest there for the night."

Chen Siyuan frowned. Why do we have to stop doing this?

“A dilapidated temple may not be safe. Let’s send someone to check it out first.”

Chen Siyuan's heart skipped a beat; he really was a cunning and treacherous fellow.

What Chen Siyuan didn't know was that Qiao Yuchen was even more cunning; he deliberately stopped to spend more time with the woman.

Upon arriving in the capital, there was still the annoying Tao Yifan around. He worried that this woman hadn't forgotten that man and might do something like that again, which would cause him to lose control and kill someone.

Not long after, the carriage started moving again and stopped in front of the dilapidated temple.

After getting off the carriage, Chen Siyuan saw that the dilapidated temple was badly broken, but it could still provide shelter from the wind and rain.

By this time, a fire had been lit inside the dilapidated temple, and wild game was cooking over it.

It made a crackling sound and a fragrant aroma wafted over, and she couldn't resist licking her lips.

She hadn't eaten all day and was getting hungry.

Actually, I had a very good breakfast, and I had pastries for lunch.

This pastry is probably something people eat as a snack when they have nothing else to do. Eating it as a meal wouldn't fill you up at all.

When it really matters, meat is still the most delicious food.

When Qiao Yuchen saw the woman's appearance, his Adam's apple bobbed rapidly. He almost lost control. But when he saw the woman come to the fire, he managed to control himself, quickly walked over, and took the roasting pheasant from Wang Yong's hand.

Wang Yong was confused, but when he saw the way his master looked at Chen Siyuan, he immediately moved aside.

Qiao Yuchen turned the roast chicken from time to time, and when he felt it was almost done, he tore off a piece with his hand and handed it to the woman.

Chen Siyuan was starving. Seeing the roasted meat placed before her, she didn't notice the man's smiling eyes. As she reached out to take it, she suddenly cried out, "Hot—"

Qiao Yuchen seemed to be doing it on purpose, throwing the grilled meat that Chen Siyuan had rejected into his mouth and starting to eat it.

Chen Siyuan looked on with envy, wanting to grab a piece several times, but afraid of getting burned. Seeing that half of the roast chicken had already been eaten by the man, she didn't care about the heat and quickly reached out to start eating.

tasty.

It's so delicious.

This roast chicken tastes different from any roast chicken I've ever had before.

Chen Siyuan was so focused on eating that she didn't notice that when she started eating, the man stopped eating altogether and instead tore off all the good meat from the roast chicken and handed it to her.

After eating her fill, Chen Siyuan patted the round stool, sat down casually on the ground, and looked at Qiao Yuchen, "I didn't expect you could roast chicken."

"That's right, what can't I do?"

Wang Yong stood there speechless. He was the one who baked it, so how did it become the owner's responsibility?

He kept these thoughts to himself, but dared not voice them.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing someone's next sentence, I immediately burst out laughing.

"Qiao Yuchen, do you think the gods here will come looking for you in the middle of the night if we roast chicken and eat it in the temple?" Chen Siyuan said with a mischievous grin.

"Don't worry, you'll be there to take my place!"
