After singing and dancing, night fell, and it was time for the main event of the day—roasted whole lamb.
Exhausted and panting, Huo Jinning plopped down on the ground, her voice hoarse from shouting: "Aqi, this whole roasted lamb looks delicious."
Her eyes gleamed as she stared at the glistening, fragrant lamb leg in front of her, and she swallowed hard.
"Don't rush, be careful it's hot. Here's a knife, you can try cutting a piece and tasting it yourself."
Fu Qinian gently pushed the small table and knife in front of Huo Jinning. Seeing her eager expression, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
"Okay, I understand." Huo Jinning eagerly grabbed the knife and carefully cut off a small piece of mutton.
But as soon as she touched the mutton, she hissed from the heat and hurriedly blew on her reddened fingers to cool them down.
"Slow down, don't rush," Fu Qinian gently reminded him.
Huo Jinning composed herself. This time she was smarter. She moved gently and slowly, cutting off pieces of mutton with a small knife and chewing them carefully.
Wow, it's crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside!
She squinted her eyes contentedly, savoring this rare delicacy.
Seeing that she was enjoying her meal, Fu Qinian, who was standing nearby, also started cutting meat.
However, he didn't eat any himself, but instead put the cut meat piece by piece into Huo Jinning's plate.
At first, Huo Jinning was enthusiastic about cutting the meat herself, but after a while, she felt that it was no longer novel.
So he simply put down the knife and waited to eat the meat that Fu Qinian had cut.
Fu Qinian, meanwhile, silently continued to serve her from the side, his gaze always gently fixed on her.
Roasted lamb paired with goat milk wine is an absolutely perfect match!
Huo Jinning was already thirsty after dancing for half a day. This goat milk wine not only quenched her thirst but also had a faint milky aroma that made it hard to stop drinking.
Before she knew it, she had drunk several cups, and a blush rose on her face, as tempting as a ripe apple.
Finally, when he couldn't eat anymore, he put down his chopsticks with satisfaction.
"Ah Qi, don't move around, you're making me dizzy," Huo Jinning said coquettishly, looking at Fu Qinian with hazy eyes.
Fu Qinian only then realized that Huo Jinning was drunk. He glanced at the empty bowl next to him and was somewhat surprised that goat milk wine could make someone drunk.
"Okay, I won't move. It's getting late, I'll take you home so you can get some rest."
"I don't want to, I'm not sleepy at all right now," Huo Jinning said, swaying unsteadily in disagreement.
"So what does Ningning want to do?" Fu Qilong asked her patiently as always.
"What should I do..." Huo Jinning tilted her head, trying hard to think.
"I don't know, but I really don't want to sleep. Ah Qi, don't move around, you're making me dizzy."
"Okay, I won't move, and we won't sleep either," Fu Qinian replied gently, as if coaxing a child.
"Hey, look at the stars in the sky! They're so beautiful! They're even winking at me! And there's the Big Dipper! I haven't seen so many stars in such a long time!"
Huo Jinning excitedly looked up at the sky, her face beaming with a happy smile.
Huo Jinning felt tired from looking up, so she gently leaned on Fu Qinian's broad shoulders.
Before long, her breathing became steady and deep, as if she had entered a sweet dream.
Fu Qinian carefully picked up Huo Jinning and carried her into the warm and comfortable tent.
He gently placed her on the bed, then turned and left, fetching a basin of water to wash his hands and face.
When Fu Qinian carried the basin of water back into the room.
To their surprise, Huo Jinning had already taken off all her clothes, muttering to herself, "So hot, so hot..."
Fu Qinian blushed instantly, turned around in a fluster, and was filled with inner turmoil.
He didn't know how to deal with the situation. Going in seemed inappropriate, but leaving Huo Jinning like this was also not an option.
After a fierce internal struggle, Fu Qinian took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and put the basin of water aside.
Then, he quickly opened his suitcase and pulled out a T-shirt that he hadn't worn yet.
His heart was pounding, his cheeks were burning hot, and his body was extremely stiff with tension.
After much effort, Fu Qinian finally helped Huo Jinning put on his clothes, by which time he was already covered in sweat and his face was flushed.
To calm himself down, he hurriedly left the room and splashed cold water on his face, feeling the coolness gradually seep into his skin, which slightly calmed his inner turmoil.
After calming down, Fu Qinian returned to the room and continued to wipe Huo Jinning's face and exposed arms.
Just then, Huo Jinning woke up and said she needed to go to the restroom.
Fu Qinian carefully supported Huo Jinning, afraid that she might bump into something.
Huo Jinning returned from the restroom dazed, muttering, "Handsome guy, hehe, there's a handsome guy in my dream, come here and give me a hug."
In the blink of an eye, Huo Jinning tackled Fu Qinian, who was supporting her, onto the bed.
Fu Qinian quickly reminded him, "Be careful."
At the same time, he used his hand to protect Huo Jinning to prevent her from falling and getting injured.
At this moment, Huo Jinning seemed to have lost consciousness, completely unaware that there was anything wrong with her behavior.
He just grinned foolishly and said, "You and A-Qi are both handsome, I like you."
Upon hearing this, Fu Qinian's heart began to beat faster involuntarily.
However, what happened next was even more unexpected.
Suddenly, Huo Jinning leaned down and gently kissed Fu Qinian's left cheek, but seemingly feeling that it wasn't symmetrical enough, she kissed his right cheek as well.
Fu Qinian was so taken aback by this sudden action that he was momentarily speechless and forgot to react.
Immediately afterwards, Huo Jinning hugged Fu Qinian tightly again before falling asleep peacefully.
Fu Qinian tried to calm himself down. Seeing that Huo Jinning was already fast asleep, he tried to move his body, wanting to get up and leave.
However, Huo Jinning hugged him even tighter, her entire weight pressing down on Fu Qinian, making him unable to move.
Left with no other choice, Fu Qinian had to give up struggling and lie there quietly, feeling Huo Jinning's breath and warmth.
Fu Qinian dared not move an inch, and did not even dare to look around carelessly.
He secretly thought that as long as he waited a little longer until Huo Jinning was asleep more soundly, he would quietly leave.
However, plans don't always go as expected. He had only intended to close his eyes and rest for a while, but due to lack of sleep the night before, the late hour, and exhaustion from strenuous exercise today, he fell asleep soon afterward.
