Luo Xi felt her cheeks suddenly burn, as if they were being roasted by a fire, or burned by Yu's gaze. She tried to break free from Yu's embrace uncomfortably, but found that her body was completely unresponsive.

"Don't move," Yu's voice sounded again, with a hint of unquestionable command, "I will teach you."

He took Rosie's hand and, along with her, slowly lowered the stick into the water. His hands, broad, warm, and lightly calloused, gently caressed Rosie's delicate skin, sending waves of tingling sensations down her spine.

Rosie felt like her heart skipped a beat. She could even hear the thumping of her heart, like a drum, deafening.

She subconsciously tried to pull her hand back, but Yu held it tighter.

"Look at the water," Yu's voice sounded in his ears, with a hint of temptation, "find the shadow of the fish, and then... stab it hard."

Rosie forced herself to focus on the water. She saw a silver fish swimming happily in the water. In the sunlight, the fish scales sparkled like broken diamonds.

She took a deep breath and was about to thrust hard, but the rain stopped her.

"No," Yu said helplessly, "You'll scare the fish away if you do that."

He adjusted Rosie's position, bringing her closer to the water. "Make sure you're sure, then strike."

Rosie nodded and inserted the stick into the water again. This time, she did not act immediately, but waited quietly.

She saw the silver fish swimming slowly near the wooden stick. She held her breath and stabbed it hard.

"Pfft-"

The wooden stick pierced the fish's body, creating a splash of water.

The fish struggled violently on the stick, and the splashing water was completely blocked by the rain.

"I caught it!" Luo Xi couldn't help but shout excitedly.

She turned to look at Yu, only to find that Yu was staring at her intently. Although her eyes were clear, they looked so intense that people dared not look directly at her.

"My Sissi is so great." Yu's voice was low and mellow.

Rosie was startled, noticing his choice of words.

mine……

She didn't seem to mind him calling her that. It felt like... they were meant to be this close.

At this time, not far from them, a towering ancient tree rose from the ground. Its thick trunk required four or five adult males to barely hug it.

"whispering sound."

There was undisguised contempt in his voice.

Falcon sat with his arms folded, leaning against a thick tree trunk. The sunlight filtered through the gaps between the branches, casting mottled shadows on his bronze skin. He looked at the two people being intimate under the tree, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

What good was there about such a troublesome creature as a female? Delicate, weak, and prone to crying. What he hated most were those delicate females who always clung to the males, like dodders, unable to survive without them.

Not only that, these females are selfish and so weak that one punch can kill three of them.

He would never be so desperate as to seek a female partner in his life.

Falcon looked at Yu with disdain, then disappeared from the spot in a flash, leaving behind only a few leaves blown down by the wind, slowly drifting down.

"Um..." Luo Xi cleared her throat, trying to break the awkward atmosphere. She pointed at the fish still struggling on the stick, "Should we... go back?"

Yu came back to his senses. He looked at Luo Xi, a smile flashing in his eyes, like a fleeting light in the deep sea: "Okay, let's go back."

He took the wooden stick from Rosie's hand, took the fish off the stick with skillful movements, then took out a leather bag from his waist and put the fish in it.

Back in the cave, Yu began to grill the fish. He took out a small animal hide bag from the stone platform, carefully poured out some finely ground powder, and sprinkled it evenly on the fish.

Luo Xi looked at his skillful movements and asked curiously, "What is this?"

Yu smiled slightly, her silver hair dancing in the firelight: "This is the seasoning I found specially for you. You said you liked the taste."

Luo Xi was stunned. She didn't remember saying this at all. But seeing Yu's focused expression, she didn't ask any further questions. She just looked at him silently.

The firelight illuminated Yu's profile as he focused on turning the grilled fish, occasionally pressing it gently with his fingertips to check the heat. His meticulousness brought a warm feeling to Luo Qian's heart.

The aroma of grilled fish gradually spread, and Rosie's stomach growled.

Yu raised her head and looked at Luo Xi with a hint of pampering in her eyes: "Are you hungry?"

Rosie nodded sheepishly.

Yu handed the grilled fish to Luo Xi, and did not forget to carefully pick out the fish bones one by one, leaving only the most tender fish meat.

Luo Xi took the fish and took a bite. The delicious flavor instantly blossomed on her taste buds. She couldn't help but exclaim, "It's delicious!"

Yu smiled, as if she had received the best compliment in the world.

As Luo Xi ate the fish, she thought, no wonder she likes fish now, it turns out someone has picked out the bones for her. She used to hate fish bones.

Halfway through the meal, Rosie suddenly felt a pain in her mouth and she subconsciously spat out a tiny fish bone.

Luo Xi raised her head and glanced at Yu inconspicuously. For some reason, she felt a little guilty.

She wanted to secretly throw away the fishbone and pretend nothing happened.

However, Yu still noticed. He put down the grilled fish, frowning, his eyes filled with self-blame: "Why are there still bones? Did I not remove them all? Did it hurt?"
