Chapter 18 Xin Yuan's Peach Blossom
"you……"
Wen Li was confused.
Her movements froze in mid-air, and she looked at the small spoon in her hand that Xin Yuan had sucked, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
This... this can be considered an indirect kiss.
Wen Li never thought that Xin Yuan would directly use the spoon she had used.
Doesn’t Xin Yuan dislike her very much?
The man who was aware of her touch yesterday and wanted to avoid her.
Xin Yuan's action left Wen Li confused, puzzled and embarrassed.
Xin Yuan, the instigator, didn't notice Wen Li's abnormality at all. He was completely conquered by the scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
Xin Yuan was still savoring the taste of the scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
The taste was so amazing, he had never tried it before.
The sour and salty taste of fried soft tomatoes paired with fresh eggs is so unforgettable.
In the past, he hated tomatoes the most, thinking that the fruit was sour and unpalatable. After tasting one, he would never touch it again.
Everyone in the tribe is similar. Basically no one likes tomatoes, so even if it grows very close, no one will pick it.
Such a disgusting thing becomes exceptionally delicious after passing through Wen Li's hands.
Xin Yuan's gaze towards Wen Li gradually began to change.
Although Wen Li looks a little ugly, it is undeniable that she is very powerful.
How come he hadn't noticed this before?
Their eyes suddenly met, and there was a hint of surprise in Xin Yuan's eyes when he looked at Wen Li.
Wen Li suddenly met Xin Yuan's bright gaze, and felt an indescribable subtlety in her heart.
Feeling that it was unnecessary to mention the spoon again, she changed the subject:
"How does it taste?"
Xin Yuan quickly replied, "It's delicious."
It's not hard to tell from his expression that he's absolutely sincere about what he said.
A sense of satisfaction surged in Wen Li's heart.
She lowered her head and smiled, "That's fine."
"Find something to cover me. I'm going to roast the chicken." Wen Li continued to instruct Xin Yuan.
Xin Yuan was now particularly obedient. He turned and went into the cave to look for something that could cover the stone pot.
Wen Li finally checked the temperature of the stone pot and nodded with satisfaction.
Yes, it can keep warm.
The reason why Xin Yuansheng was not asked to come out was because the stone pot still had residual heat, so the food would not cool down so quickly. It would also take some time for her to roast the chicken next.
After handing the matter over to Xin Yuan, Wen Li began to roast the chicken.
We caught five pheasants today, and there was one that Zhu Yan sent us this morning, making a total of six.
Wen Li dealt with four and left two.
Xin Yuan has a big appetite, and Wen Li was afraid that if she didn’t cook enough, he wouldn’t have enough to eat.
Just do it all. I won’t feel at ease if I don’t have some stock at home.
The marinated chicken has a bright color and Wen Li used a lot of seasonings.
Seasoning is the key to delicious food and is also the scarcest thing in the Beast World. Fortunately, Wen Li has a system.
As long as there are enough points, Wen Li doesn't need to worry about seasonings, as they can be redeemed directly in the system mall.
In order to win Xin Yuan's stomach as quickly as possible and improve his favorability, Wen Li spent a lot of money.
Because of the curse, she now has seven more days to spend with Xin Yuan.
As long as Xin Yuan wants to live, he will not take the initiative to drive her away.
During these seven days, she must make sure Xin Yuan can't live without her food!
This is the plan Wen Li has come up with at the moment.
Given Xin Yuan's love for food, Wen Li felt that it wouldn't be difficult to achieve.
While the roast chicken was marinating, Wen Li had already set up a simple rack and prepared the charcoal fire. Now all he had to do was put the roast chicken on the rack and grill it.
As the roasted chicken touched the charcoal fire, a rich aroma gradually wafted out, swirling around Xinyuan Cave.
Wen Li was enjoying the roasting, watching the roast chicken gradually turn golden and attractive in color.
Xin Yuan was already standing beside her, staring at the roast chicken on the rack.
The aroma of meat rushed straight to the tip of the nose, and it really proved what Wen Li said, "The fragrance is so dizzying."
Xin Yuan had no idea what the roast chicken in front of him would taste like, but his intuition told him that it was definitely delicious!
Wen Li was concentrating on roasting the chicken when she heard footsteps approaching from afar.
Xin Yuan had amazing hearing and looked over first. Wen Li noticed his movements and also looked over.
The visitor was a female who lived nearby.
Although we live nearby, Xin Yuan's house is located in a remote area, so there is some distance between them.
The female was about the same age as Wen Li, and Wen Li knew her.
The two of them have a good relationship, not particularly close, but they will smile and greet each other when they meet.
The female's name was Cai Jie. She showed a hint of surprise when she saw Wen Li was also here with Xin Yuan.
"Wen Li, why are you here?"
Wen Li was stunned by her question, "Is there any problem?"
It's normal for her to stay with her beastly husband. Cai Jie's tone sounds like someone who has caught someone cheating.
Cai Jie forced a smile, "No, it's okay, I was just surprised. After all, you never came before."
This sounded fine, but Wen Li sensed something was wrong.
Although everyone knew that the original owner was not very interested in Xin Yuan, the beastly husband, how did Cai Jie know that she would not come here normally?
Does she often come to see Xin Yuan?
Wen Li's mind worked extremely quickly on this matter.
She said calmly, "What's the matter with you?"
Cai Jie noticed that her voice had become much colder, and her face looked a little embarrassed, with a flash of disdain in her eyes.
"Nothing, just came to take a look." Cai Jie said: "I just passed by and smelled a delicious aroma."
She originally thought that what others said about Wen Li and Xin Yuan's better relationship was just nonsense, but she didn't expect it to be true.
A sour feeling welled up in Cai Jie's heart.
She pretended to glance at Xin Yuan casually, but found that Xin Yuan was not looking at her at all, his eyes were fixed on the roasted chicken on the charcoal fire.
Cai Jie became even more depressed.
She always wanted Xin Yuan to be her beastly husband. She fell in love with him from the day Xin Yuan came to the tribe.
However, Wen Li's mother interfered and Xin Yuan became Wen Li's beastly husband.
Fortunately, Xin Yuan didn't like Wen Li, and Cai Jie saw a glimmer of hope again.
She believed that she was better than Wen Li and would definitely win Xin Yuan's heart, so she would look for opportunities to get close to Xin Yuan from time to time.
"Have you eaten?" Wen Li asked.
She had been observing Cai Jie and keenly caught the hostility emanating from her, and immediately made a judgment in her mind.
If nothing unexpected happens, it’s Xin Yuan’s peach blossoms that have all come here.
When Cai Jie heard Wen Li ask this, her eyes fell on the roast chicken not far away.
In addition to coming to see Xin Yuan, Cai Jie also came here partly because of the aroma of roast chicken.
It smells so good.
She could smell it from a long distance away, and she didn't know how it was made, it was so fragrant.
She knew that Xin Yuan was quite knowledgeable about food and often made his own food, but it had never tasted so good.
I thought it was Xin Yuan who made a new breakthrough, but I didn’t expect it to be Wen Li.
Cai Jie hadn't eaten dinner yet, but her stomach was already ravenous and making growling sounds.
"No." Cai Jie said embarrassedly.
She felt that Wen Li said this to keep her for dinner.
After all, Wen Li is ugly and has low self-esteem.
Even though she has a mother of high status, she still inadvertently tries to please others when interacting with them.
Cai Jie had been with Wen Li before and knew her personality.
If nothing unexpected happens, Wen Li will ask her if she wants to eat together, or let her take a roast chicken back.
She saw that Wen Li had roasted four of them!
Cai Jie licked her lips and began to look forward to the taste of roast chicken.
She had already decided to take a roast chicken home to eat.
Unfortunately, Cai Jie's idea did not go as she wished.
Wen Li just smiled and said, "Then why don't you go home quickly."
