Koi Fubao: Being loved by everyone on the road to escape from famine
Chapter 172 Sweetheart
Now, this smile was like a spring breeze, causing ripples in Fang Jiawen's heart, making it almost impossible for him to control himself.
Fang Weiyi was dressed in white, and his smile was gentle and elegant. Even the eldest senior sister of the Divine Doctor Valley would find it hard to resist him.
But Xiao Zhixue seemed exceptionally calm. She was already accustomed to handsome men. After all, in her heart, Fan Yanmu's charm was truly unmatched.
Fang Weiyi got out of bed and bowed deeply to Xiao Zhixue: "Thanks to Miss Xiao for rescuing me, I am very grateful."
Xiao Zhixue just waved her hand calmly, saying calmly: "You saved me before, there is no need for us to thank each other."
She knew in her heart that she had to dispel Fang Weiyi's idea of asking for the Jade Spirit Pill in advance, so she said bluntly: "The Jade Spirit Pill is very important to me. When I refine a sufficient amount, I will naturally return it to you."
Xiao Zhixue had her own plans in mind. Although she had successfully refined several new Jade Spirit Pills, it was still far from her goal.
During her research, she discovered that although the Jade Spirit Pill could cure hundreds of poisons, it was powerless against the special poisonous insects used by Jin Chengfeng.
If it weren't for the rich herbal resources in her space and the scorpion and snake venom she had stored in advance, those few crucial bliss pills would have been out of the question.
Now, her scorpion and snake venom has been used up, and she will have to take the trouble to capture more poisonous creatures in the future.
After hearing this, Fang Weiyi felt mixed emotions.
The original plan was to take Fang Jiawen home and retrieve the Yuling Pill, but the development of the situation was beyond his expectations, making it difficult for him to speak.
He saluted again, and said sincerely: "I hope Miss Xiao can speed up the research and development progress so that I can bring it back to my father as soon as possible."
He turned to look at Fang Jiawen, but before he could say anything, he saw his brother stepping back repeatedly, his eyes full of anxiety.
"Brother, I really don't want to go back to Divine Doctor Valley. Please don't let me go back."
There was a hint of pleading in Fang Jiawen's voice. The relationship between him and Xiao Zhixue had not yet been made clear, so how could he leave so easily at this time?
Seeing this, Fang Weiyi sighed softly, his eyes full of understanding.
"Do you have someone you like? Which girl is that? As your brother, I have to screen her for you."
There was a hint of teasing in his words, and his eyes unconsciously drifted towards Xiao Zhixue, making Fang Jiawen's heart tighten.
Fearing that Fang Weiyi might let the cat out of the bag, Fang Jiawen quickly stepped forward and tried to cover his brother's mouth.
"Brother, don't talk nonsense."
He secretly glanced at Xiao Zhixue, his eyes full of panic and uncertainty.
Xiao Zhixue knew nothing about this and thought Fang Jiawen was attracted to Ying Er. When she saw the flicker in his eyes, her guess seemed to be confirmed.
Fang Weiyi holds traditional views on love and marriage, and may find it difficult to accept Fang Jiawen's possible admiration for the same sex.
He gently slapped Fang Jiawen's hand away, his face became serious and his eyes were sharp.
"Marriage is a matter that should be decided by parents, and the matchmaker's words should determine your lifelong relationship. Your father is not around, so as your elder brother, I naturally have to consider everything for you."
Fang Jiawen was extremely anxious, but he could not directly reveal the identity of his sweetheart. For a moment, he seemed at a loss.
Sweat slid down his forehead, and Fang Weiyi's curiosity was completely aroused.
"If you don't tell me who that lady is, I can only take you back to the Divine Doctor Valley now."
Seeing his brother's firm attitude, Fang Jiawen could only look to Xiao Zhixue for help in desperation.
Xiao Zhixue had no idea that she had become the core of this conversation. She just watched with a smile on her face. When she felt Fang Jiawen's pleading eyes, she could not help but shrugged helplessly, indicating that she could do nothing to help.
After all, it was a matter involving such delicate and private emotional entanglements, and she, Xiao Zhixue, as an outsider, could not intervene. She could only stand aside silently, watching the development of the situation in an almost spectator-like manner.
Seeing this, Fang Jiawen became extremely anxious. His eyes, which were usually full of confidence, now flashed with a look of help. He stomped his feet, as if he wanted to crush all the restlessness and uneasiness in his heart. Then he strode out of the house with big strides, almost as if escaping, leaving only a series of hurried footsteps echoing in the air.
As Fang Jiawen's elder brother, Fang Weiyi naturally knew his temperament best. Seeing this scene, although he was worried, he was gently stopped by Xiao Zhixue.
"Master Fang, forgive me for being blunt, but you can't force feelings. If you push him too hard, he'll run away even more. How can you bring him back to the valley safely?"
Xiao Zhixue's words were gentle but firm, and every word struck Fang Weiyi's heart.
After weighing the pros and cons, Fang Weiyi could only reluctantly give up the idea of pursuit and sat back on the bed with mixed feelings.
Xiao Zhixue said no more, turned around and left the room, leaving behind silence.
Outside the door, Fang Jiawen looked particularly lonely. He lowered his head and his shoulders drooped slightly, as if he was carrying a heavy burden.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhixue patted his shoulder gently, with a hint of imperceptible tenderness in her voice: "Don't worry, I won't tell your eldest brother about your worries."
After saying that, she winked playfully, gave Fang Jiawen a meaningful smile, and then walked leisurely towards the direction of Biyunxuan, leaving Fang Jiawen standing there in a daze, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Fang Jiawen's face was filled with bitterness, he was speechless. In fact, the feelings in his heart had already been secretly tied to Xiao Zhixue.
Xiao Zhixue's misunderstanding was like an invisible wall that made it difficult for him to speak, and he could only bear the pain in his heart alone.
All of this was seen by Ying Er who was standing by.
After Xiao Zhixue walked away, he slowly stepped forward, with a playful smile on his face: "I didn't expect you to have such a hobby."
His words were full of provocation and disdain.
Fang Jiawen turned around when he heard the voice and saw Ying Er. His anger was instantly ignited. Coupled with the rude words of the other party, he clenched his fists and his eyes almost spewed fire: "Shut up! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will make you regret it!"
However, Ying Er didn't seem to care at all, and instead responded with even sharper words: "If I wanted to, it would be as easy as crushing an ant to death."
Fang Jiawen knew very well that he was no match for Ying Er in martial arts, so he sneered and stopped fighting with him. He turned around and slammed the door shut, the sound echoing in the empty corridor, revealing his inner unwillingness and anger.
"You're still a brat, and you still want to fight me?"
Ying Er sneered disdainfully and walked away with a swagger, leaving behind only ridicule and contempt.
Inside the house, Fang Jiawen had to face his brother's persistent gaze.
Unexpectedly, Fang Weiyi did not continue to ask about his sweetheart, which made Fang Jiawen feel a little relieved and gave him a temporary respite.
He sat at the table, chin in his hand, deep in thought.
