When Long Yin slowly returned, he saw You Ran holding a small fruit in her hand, following Xuan Feng around. The two looked at each other from time to time, their eyes full of tenderness.
Hu Zhong and Xuan Feng were in charge of grilling the meat, and the scene was so heartwarming that it made him feel a little dazed for a moment.
You Ran is so delicate. As a female, without the protection of a male, it would be very difficult for her to survive in this world.
Having a meticulous male like Xuan Feng by her side doesn't seem so bad.
If Xuan Feng hadn't killed all those people, would they even have the chance to be grilling meat here so leisurely now?
"You're back!"
Mu Youran looked up and saw Long Yin standing not far away, looking very forlorn.
Seeing him return empty-handed, Mu Youran quickly went over and held up the fruit in her hand to comfort him, "It's alright, Xuanfeng hunted a lot of prey, enough for us to eat."
"Try this fruit, it's delicious!"
Looking at the bright red fruit, Long Yin felt very disappointed. He had clearly promised to find fruit for You Ran to eat, but he had completely forgotten about it because of what had just happened.
It was Xuanfeng who went to find it.
Mu Youran smiled and said, "Open your mouth, I'll feed you."
However, before he could react, a piece of juice was stuffed into his mouth, and when his teeth touched it lightly, the juice inside burst out.
But the taste was unpleasant for him; it was not only sour but also bitter.
"Is it delicious? Xuanfeng picked these for me, and I specially saved the rest for you!"
We've been rushing along the way and haven't had a chance to enjoy such good fruit.
Now that she's finally managed to get some, she naturally wants everyone to eat it together.
Long Yin gave a faint smile: "Delicious!"
"Hehe, I knew you'd like it too!"
As she spoke, Mu Youran stuffed the rest of the food into his hands. Looking at the things that had been forcibly handed to him, Long Yin felt very uncomfortable.
He felt as if he had been outdone by this black panther orc, as if he was inferior to him in every way.
She returned the fruit, smiled slightly, and said, "You can have it. I don't want anything sweet tonight."
Mu Youran sensed that he seemed to be in a bad mood, probably because she hadn't found the fruit.
Without thinking about anything else, I leisurely finished the rest of the fruit, and a large plate of mud-roasted chicken, already torn into small pieces, was brought out.
Xuan Feng walked over and placed it on the clean grass: "Try it!"
Hu Zhong knew his master was in a bad mood, but it was mealtime and he was hungry too.
Moreover, he had been helping to tend the fire while Xuanfeng was cooking, and the aroma was incredible.
They were all just roasted over a fire with a little salt added, and I don't know why they tasted so good.
Seeing that You Ran and the others had already taken the meat, he quickly reached into the plate, grabbed a large piece of roasted meat, and stuffed it into his mouth!
It would have been better if I hadn't eaten it, because once I did, I almost swallowed my tongue!
"Mmm~, Xuanfeng, the barbecue you made is so delicious!"
Not only him, but You Ran was also surprised. She stuffed two big mouthfuls of meat into her mouth before speaking.
"Xuanfeng, I never knew you could cook so well."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Feng beamed with joy. Ever since he entered the Sunset Tribe, he had noticed that You Ran was very picky about food.
To master this skill, he grilled meat every day, just so he could cook it for her!
"Eat more if you like."
The interaction between the three made Xuan Feng feel a little sore; he really wanted to escape from here.
At this moment, Xuan Feng was like a scorching sun, making him very uncomfortable.
But he knew he couldn't leave; leaving would mean he was a coward!
Suppressing her displeasure, she took a small bite of the meat in her hand and froze on the spot.
He looked down at the golden-brown roasted meat in his hand and exclaimed, "How can it taste so good?"
It tastes much better than what Yingyao and Luobai made before. It's fatty but not greasy, lean but not dry, and has a faint herbal aroma.
Gaining Long Yin's approval is undoubtedly the greatest affirmation of Xuan Feng's meal.
He picked up a chicken leg and placed it in Long Yin's bowl, a smile playing on his lips: "This chicken leg tastes even better!"
Hearing these gentle words, Long Yin felt a little embarrassed, as he had just had an argument with him in the forest.
To his surprise, he didn't hold a grudge at all and even offered him a chicken leg, even though he hadn't brought anything back with him that night.
This awkward atmosphere made him very uncomfortable. He took a deep breath and said, "Xuanfeng, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have argued with you just now."
"Now I know..."
"Eat the meat quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold!"
Before he could finish speaking, Xuan Feng forcefully interrupted him!
Then a warning look swept over, and only then did Long Yin understand what Xuan Feng meant!
He didn't want You Ran to worry!
Seeing this, Long Yin felt even more that he was far inferior to him and had never even considered these things.
Having him by her side is perhaps a blessing for You Ran!
Tonight, he voluntarily gave up the seat next to You Ran.
"Xuanfeng, why don't you sleep on the outside of You Ran's bed? It's quite cold tonight."
Upon hearing this, Mu Youran looked at Long Yin, who was standing to the side looking somewhat embarrassed. Weren't these two just arguing like mortal enemies? How did they suddenly change?
However, it would be best if they could get along peacefully, he patted the spot next to him.
"Xuanfeng, come here."
These past few days, Xuan Feng has been sleeping against the cold stone wall whenever he's tired. To be honest, You Ran feels a little sorry for him.
