Chapter 107 Would You Mind?
"Haha... That's great!" Mu Xin's eyes curved into crescents, his laughter was as clear as a silver bell, he took Su Chenyin's arm, and said happily: "From now on, we are friends."
Seeing this, Yu Zhiyan immediately stepped forward and gently took Su Chenyin's other arm. She looked at Mu Xin with a wave of her eyes and said jokingly:
"Originally, I was Chen Yin's number one friend, but considering that you saved his life just now, let's tie for first place!"
"Haha, then I have to perform well." Mu Xin responded with a grin, a playful gleam in the corner of his eyes.
Jun Yijue stood aside, looking at the laughing people, and couldn't help but smile.
He looked up into the distance. The setting sun dyed the clouds in the sky golden.
"Yinyin, it's getting late, let's leave here first!" Jun Yijue withdrew his gaze from the distance and turned to Su Chenyin, with a hint of warmth in his smile.
"Well, Ajue, you're right. Let's find a place to rest first." Su Chenyin nodded in agreement and turned to look at Mu Xin and Yu Zhiyan, "Do you two have any objections?"
Mu Xin and Yu Zhiyan smiled at each other and shook their heads: "I'll listen to you."
So, the four of them walked together in a harmonious atmosphere. Jun Yijue held Su Chenyin's hand and walked in front to lead the way, while Mu Xin and Yu Zhiyan chatted and laughed behind.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on them, casting long shadows and covering the forest with a golden cloak.
Along the way, they carefully explored the surroundings, guarding against possible dangers, while hunting low-level spirit beasts and accumulating points.
In the dim night, Su Chenyin and his three companions finally found a secluded valley and decided to set up a temporary camp there.
They had a clear division of labor and quickly set up the tent. They then found some dead branches and leaves nearby and started a fire.
The flames swayed in the night wind, dispelling the darkness and coldness around them and adding a bit of vitality to the silent valley.
"I can finally take a break." Mu Xin stretched lazily with a satisfied smile on his face.
Su Chenyin smiled lightly and took out some spirit beast meat and his own secret seasoning from the storage ring.
The spirit beast meat was roasted on the fire. The flames licked the meat, making a sizzling sound, and the tempting aroma gradually spread.
Jun Yijue sat next to Su Chenyin, turning the barbecue skillfully to ensure that each side was cooked to perfection. The firelight reflected on his handsome face, making him look particularly handsome.
The grilling time is almost done, Su Chenyin evenly sprinkles the secret seasoning on the grilled meat, and the aroma instantly fills the air, making people salivate.
Mu Xin and Yu Zhiyan's eyes lit up as they stared at the barbecue, with uncontrollable smiles on their lips.
"Wow~ It smells so good! When can we eat it? I'm drooling." Mu Xin asked impatiently while swallowing his saliva and staring at the barbecue on the fire.
Su Chenyin looked at Mu Xin's anxious look and couldn't help but smile. He used a dagger to cut the roasted golden and crispy spirit beast meat into small pieces and distributed them to everyone.
"You can eat it now. Come, try my cooking. But be careful of the heat." Su Chenyin handed a piece of barbecue to Mu Xin with a smile on her face.
"Hmm!" Mu Xin couldn't wait to take it, not caring about the heat, and took a bite. The fresh and tender gravy burst in his mouth.
Her eyes lit up instantly and she praised, "Wow! It's delicious! Chen Yin, your grilling skills are simply top-notch!"
"Haha, as long as you like it." Su Chenyin laughed happily and picked up a few more pieces for Mu Xin, "Come on, if it tastes good, eat more."
Then, Su Chenyin picked up a few more pieces of barbecue and gave them to Yu Zhiyan and Jun Yijue, and picked up a piece for herself to taste.
"Chen Yin, your seasoning is amazing! This is simply the most delicious barbecue I have ever eaten." Mu Xin stuffed the barbecue into his mouth while praising it highly.
Yu Zhiyan also nodded repeatedly, with a satisfied smile on her face: "Yes, Chen Yin, your cooking skills are really good. The smell of this barbecue is simply irresistible."
Jun Yijue tasted the food while looking at Su Chenyin and praised softly, "Yinyin, it's delicious!"
"Okay! Stop praising me, or I'll get too proud." Su Chenyin smiled mischievously, "Eat quickly, it's delicious."
The four of them sat around the fire, enjoying the delicious barbecue while chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.
As the night deepened, the surrounding forest was silent, with only the crackling sound of the burning fire and their laughter.
suddenly!
The sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night. Everyone immediately became alert and looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.
I saw a figure walking out from the darkness, it was Lu Ziche.
Su Chenyin raised her eyebrows slightly: "Second Master Lu, what a coincidence?"
Lu Ziche's breathing was a little rapid, and it was obvious that he came here in a hurry.
Seeing Su Chenyin and others sitting around the fire, he was obviously relieved and his pace slowed down.
Lu Ziche smiled brightly, his eyes swept across everyone's face, finally landing on Su Chenyin, and he nodded slightly in greeting.
"It is indeed a coincidence. I was hunting spirit beasts nearby and didn't expect to meet you here."
Ahem...
He would never admit that he had followed Su Chenyin and Jun Yijue all the way here.
Su Chenyin smiled, pointed to the open space next to the fire, and said, "Since you are here, let's sit down and have some barbecue together."
Lu Ziche was not polite either. He walked to the fire and sat down. He took a piece of barbecue from Su Chenyin and said gratefully, "Haha... Thank you Miss Su. I'm starving."
"Wow! This barbecue is amazing!" Lu Ziche praised vaguely while wolfing down the food.
Mu Xin couldn't help but laugh proudly after hearing this: "Of course, this is Chen Yin's secret seasoning, of course it tastes good!"
Lu Ziche devoured several pieces of barbecued meat in a flash, wiped the grease from the corners of his mouth, and said jokingly: "With such delicious food, it seems that I have to follow Miss Su and the others closely in the future."
Su Chenyin couldn't help but chuckle when she heard this, "If Second Young Master Lu is willing, we will welcome it."
"Then I'd like to join in as well. I wonder if Miss Su would mind?" Just as Su Chenyin finished speaking, another voice suddenly came from the darkness.
Everyone turned to look and saw Rong walking towards them with a folding fan in his hand. He had a smile on his face and a hint of cynicism in his eyes.
"Uh... Master Rong, I really mind it," Su Chenyin looked at Rong and said jokingly, "Would you mind it?"
"Haha, I mind, of course I mind!" Yu Rong folded his folding fan, walked to the fire with a smile on his face, and sat down next to Lu Ziche.
Then, he unceremoniously picked up a piece of barbecue and said while eating, "But what I am best at is making people not mind."
"It seems that being thick-skinned is really the way to survive." Su Chenyin teased and added a few more pieces of firewood to the fire. The jumping flames made her look even more beautiful.
Jun Yijue looked up and down at Yu Rong, a look of scrutiny flashed in his eyes, then he lowered his head and whispered into Su Chenyin's ear: "Yinyin, indeed, he is quite shameless."
"Haha, are you praising me?" Yu Rong glanced at Jun Yijue with a sidelong smile on his face, looking very proud.
"Ah... yes, yes, yes! I'm praising you, Master Rong." Su Chenyin nodded pretending to be serious, then turned to Jun Yijue: "Ajue, grill some more meat!"
Jun Yijue nodded slightly, then picked up a few pieces of spirit beast meat and roasted them on the fire.
