Koi Fubao: Being loved by everyone on the road to escape from famine

Xiao Zhixue carefully served Fan Yanmu a bowl of porridge, accompanied by some carefully pickled wild vegetables.

Thinking that Fan Yanmu had only a bowl of wild vegetable soup for dinner and must be starving by now, she felt even more pity for him.

Fan Yanmu took the bowl, picked up the wild vegetables without hesitation, and enjoyed them together with the porridge. Every bite was full of gratitude and cherishment, as if he was tasting the most delicious delicacy in the world.

The taste of the porridge became sweeter because of this thoughtfulness and it warmed his heart.

Ying One and Ying Two, who were watching silently at the side, saw how much Fan Yanmu enjoyed himself, and their throats moved unconsciously, revealing their desire that was hard to conceal.

Ying Er couldn't hold back any longer, and sat down next to Fan Yanmu. He was about to serve himself some porridge, but unexpectedly, Fan Yanmu gave him a stern look, followed by a light tap on the back of his hand with chopsticks, which was a warning yet caring gesture.

"What do you want to do? This is what Zhixue prepared specially for me. If you want to drink it, just make it yourself."

Although his tone was cold, there was an imperceptible gentleness in his eyes.

Ying Er breathed in grievance, feeling pain on the back of his hand. He looked at Fan Yanmu pitifully and muttered softly: "Master, this porridge is so delicious, I just want to taste it..."

Fan Yanmu cast a sharp look at him, which frightened Ying Er so much that he immediately fell silent. He had no choice but to pout and reluctantly return to Ying Yi's side, complaining in a low voice: "Ying Yi, we are both cooking porridge, why is your cooking skill not so attractive?"

When Ying Yi heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched and he felt puzzled.

When Xiao Zhixue heard Fan Yanmu calling her so intimately in front of everyone, the sudden intimacy made her cheeks slightly red, her whole body covered with goose bumps, and she felt mixed emotions.

Zhou Shuqiong and Xiao Wei exchanged a meaningful look, their eyes full of relief and smiles.

Deep down they were actually happy to see this happen and secretly hoped that the young couple could have a deeper relationship.

Xiao Zhixue sensed the subtle change in the air and felt a little embarrassed, so she hurriedly stood up, wanting to find an excuse to leave this slightly awkward situation.

Seeing this, Fan Yanmu quickly put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands and asked anxiously: "Zhixue, where are you going?"

The concern in his tone was hard to conceal.

Xiao Zhixue couldn't help but roll her eyes and deliberately put on a disapproving expression: "Fan Yanmu, don't call me that, it sounds corny."

As soon as the words fell, the air seemed to freeze for a moment, and the warm atmosphere just now suddenly became a little awkward.

Fan Yanmu was suddenly speechless. He originally thought that the friendship between them would take a step further, but he did not expect Xiao Zhixue to resist this.

The joy in my heart was instantly replaced by loss, and even the originally sweet porridge in the bowl seemed to have lost its taste.

Shadow One and Shadow Two nervously watched their master, fearing that their movements would cause more dissatisfaction.

Xiao Zhixue completely ignored Fan Yanmu's questions and walked into the quiet Zen room alone, leaving everyone with a resolute back, leaving the room full of silence and unexpressed emotions slowly flowing in the air.

Seeing that Fan Yanmu seemed to be slightly disdainful of the plain bowl of porridge, Zhou Shuqiong smiled and tried to ease the atmosphere: "Master Fan, please don't mind. Our girl is still a bit wild and hasn't been able to get used to these delicate addresses yet. I believe she will be able to sense Master Fan's intimacy in the future."

After she finished speaking, a hint of apology and expectation flashed in her eyes, as if she was guaranteeing her daughter's future changes.

Upon hearing this, Fan Yanmu curled up his lips into a gentle smile. He gently picked up the bowl of hot porridge and drank it all in one go, as if silently expressing his approval of this homely warmth.

Only after the last drop of porridge in the pot was scooped out did he slowly stand up and prepare to leave.

Shadow One and Shadow Two, who were following behind him, saw their master's movements and hurriedly quickened their pace, wanting to follow him closely. Unexpectedly, Fan Yanmu stopped them with a gentle but firm look: "You two can rest here, there is no need to bother seeing me off."

The two men looked at each other, then stopped respectfully and watched Fan Yanmu's figure gradually walking away until he disappeared at the end of the winding path.

At this time, Ying Er sighed in a low voice: "When did the master care so much about a woman? It seems that Miss Xiao is indeed extraordinary."

Yingyi's evaluation of Xiao Zhixue coincided with hers, not only because of her bravery and courage, daring to break into the Xuanyutang branch alone and rescue the trapped people, but also because of her superb medical skills, which allowed her to remove poisons and heal serious injuries for her master. If such a woman were to join the battlefield, she would surely achieve an extraordinary career.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the dilapidated temple, and a group of officials in official uniforms stepped into the temple gate.

When the villagers saw the officials coming, they stopped what they were doing and looked at them with concern.

However, the officials were gentle and caring, saying, "We are here to visit you, Master and Miss. Please continue with your work, folks, and don't worry about this."

After hearing this, the villagers felt relieved and returned to their respective affairs.

Liu Yu led the officials step by step towards the meditation room and gently knocked on the door.

Inside the door, Yu Li heard the sound and hurried forward to open the door. Seeing Liu Yu and the officials, she warmly invited them into the room.

After dinner, Yu Fugui was able to sit up with difficulty after taking the magical pill given by Xiao Zhixue.

Liu Yu walked quickly to Yu Fugui and asked respectfully and concernedly, "Master, has your health improved a little? I have something important to report to you."

Yu Fugui knew that it must be an important matter, so he told Yu Li to step aside for the time being.

Yu Li had been well-educated and well-mannered since childhood, and was well aware of the differences between men and women, so she obediently left the Zen room.

The door closed gently, and Liu Yu recounted to Yu Fugui everything that had happened today, including how Xiao Zhixue had stepped forward to teach the four bullies a lesson.

After hearing this, Yu Fugui's brows furrowed even more tightly. He never thought that such a turmoil would happen in his family while he was recuperating.

Although Xiao Zhixue's behavior was a bit out of line, her life-saving grace should not be forgotten, and her chivalrous spirit deserves support.

Liu Yu asked cautiously: "Father, the four people have been detained. What are your plans for the follow-up?"

Yu Fugui snorted coldly, with a hint of anger in his eyes: "Anyone who dares to tarnish Miss Xiao's reputation must be severely punished! Immediately expel them from Sanma Town and ban them from setting foot here again for life!"

Once the order was issued, Liu Yu naturally followed it and turned around to order the officials outside to expel them.

He did not leave with the officials, but instead became concerned about Yu Fugui's illness.

Yu Fugui was quite impressed with Liu Yu's ability. He patted the bed and motioned him to sit down.

After Liu Yu sat down as he was told, Yu Fugui said solemnly, "Thanks to Miss Xiao, my body has recovered as before. No matter what the outside world says, I will fully support Miss Xiao. I will never forget this kindness."

His tone was full of determination, as if he had made an important decision.
