Chapter 867 The Goddess Has a Golden Finger
Shi Li was the only one left in the cave.
The sound of weapons clashing outside the cave was clearly audible, and danger was imminent.
Shi Li subconsciously hugged her arms, frowned, and looked out of the cave worriedly.
This night attack seemed to tell her that even with a golden finger, she could not completely seek benefits and avoid harm, and she had to endure and face all the dangers.
[From this perspective, anchoring is also a high-risk industry~]
[I watched a live streamer, and his ending was tragic...]
[Okay, stop scaring Xiao Lizhi. She's so pale that she's not even sexy~]
Shi Li was indeed very scared.
But besides being afraid, he was more worried about Rong Yu and others.
Having lost her golden finger, all she could do was to stay in the cave and not go out and cause trouble.
I waited quietly with my arms folded, and the sounds outside gradually faded away.
Then came the sound of steady and measured footsteps.
Shi Li raised her head and saw Rong Yu walking in from outside with a smile on her face as bright as the breeze and the moon.
"Don't panic, it's okay."
He walked up to Shi Li, bent down and whispered to comfort her, "You are awake now, do you want to drink a bowl of hot soup together? It's very cold at night."
Drinking soup or something like that is just an excuse, of course.
Rongyu was worried that Shili was scared, so she said this to her on purpose.
The moment she saw him walk in, Shi Li's uneasiness had been somewhat dispelled. But the night in the mountains was really cold, and when she heard the word "hot soup", she nodded subconsciously.
So, Shi Li followed Rong Yu out of the cave and came to the outside of the cave.
The assassins who launched the sneak attack were either dead or injured, and had been dealt with by the personal soldiers. There was nothing unusual except some dark bloodstains and dead leaves left on the ground outside.
A new bonfire had been lit in the middle, with a large pot on top.
Rong Xing stood beside the big pot, staring intently at the half-cooked hot soup inside. The faint aroma was blown into Shi Li's nose by the night breeze.
I have to say, it’s really great to have a bowl of hot soup at this time!
Judging from the smell, it seems that meat and seasonings have been added, which is really exciting.
Adhering to her love for food, Shi Li also looked at Rong Xing more favorably, after all, he was the chef of this pot of soup.
When the broth was ready, the chef fell into his old habit when he was distributing the broth in bowls, or rather, he had some tricks up his sleeve.
The bowl he handed to Rongyu was full of soup; on the contrary, the bowl he handed to Shili was watery.
"Go to bed quickly after you finish drinking. You have to travel early tomorrow! Just because it doesn't rain today doesn't mean it won't rain tomorrow!"
Rong Xing was in a bad mood and looked unhappy because of the sneak attack tonight.
He thought that it was dark at night and others would not be able to see his intention of dividing the soup, so he dared to be so blatant.
"Thank you."
After all, it was someone else's food, so Shi Li couldn't be picky. She took the bowl of soup, feeling a little aggrieved.
After Rong Xing handed her the bowl, he turned around and prepared to serve soup to other people.
Shi Li looked at his back and lowered her head silently.
Just then, a hand grabbed her bowl and handed her his own bowl.
Subconsciously, she looked up at Rong Yu and saw that he was shrouded in the gentle and misty moonlight. She gently made a "silence" gesture on her lips with her index finger, and then glanced at Rong Xing's back suggestively.
Shi Li lowered her head silently and pursed her lips. The lake of her heart seemed to be rippling in circles. Even after she finished the whole bowl of broth with all the ingredients, the ripples still did not dissipate.
But she should go back and rest, otherwise Rong Xing would come true and delay her journey tomorrow.
"Your Highness, these assassins seem to be from the capital, could they be from the Su family..."
After Shi Li entered the cave, Rong Xing walked up to Rong Yu, without noticing that he and Shi Li had exchanged soup bowls.
Rong Yu remained silent, but just looked up at the bright moon in the sky which was gradually obscured by dark clouds.
In the capital, there are more than just the Su family who are afraid of him...
