Chapter 428: Chapter 428: Meet Ning Shoukai Again

After cleaning everything, Bai Xifeng marinated the fish and left them for about 30 minutes. She prepared another dish which was the cabbage-beef fried. Liu Longwei helped Bai Xifeng light up the fire and control it.

After 30 minutes, Bai Xifeng got back to the fish. She wrapped the fish in the leaf and began to grill them on the live coals. After a while, the fish started to give a delicious smell. Smelling this delicious smell, Bai Xifeng’s stomach started to make some sounds.

Bai Xifeng rubbed her stomach. "Just wait for a moment. It will be ready."

Liu Longwei who watched Bai Xifeng chuckled. Bai Xifeng turned around and looked at Liu Longwei.

"What?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"You talk to your stomach like it is human." Liu Longwei said.

"Of course, I need to treat my part of the body nicely." Bai Xifeng stated.

Bai Xifeng felt that the fish had already cooked. She took one of them and opened the leaf.

The stronger smell lingered in the air. She tasted a bit. Then she nodded.

"It’s done. Let’s eat." Bai Xifeng said.

Both of them started to eat. Liu Longwei tasted the fish. It was so delicious. He had never eaten something like this before. It seemed his fiancee knew a lot about cooking, unlike the young lady from the prestigious family.

"This will be perfect if we have sake." Bai Xifeng stated.

"Sake?" Liu Longwei did not know that word.

"Oh... I mean wine." Bai Xifeng said.

Sake was a drink from Japan. She often went to Japan to staycation over at traditional ryokan. She often drank sake there. It was delicious. She did not know if Japan existed in this period of time. If it existed, she would like to visit and have some sake.

After dinner, they prepared to get some rest. Liu Longwei told Bai Xifeng that she would sleep in the carriage while he slept outside. Bai Xifeng told him that he would sleep inside the carriage as well.

Liu Longwei froze for a moment. "Are you sure that it is what you want?"

"What? You often ask to sleep with me before." Bai Xifeng glanced at Liu Longwei.

Liu Longwei coughed when he heard that question. He remembered when he was pretending to be a fool, he often asked to sleep with Bai Xifeng. Well, he was joking at that time.

"It is not like we are sleeping in one blanket. So, just sleep in the carriage. It is better to sleep inside than outside. Come in." Bai Xifeng said while entering the carriage. However, seeing Liu Longwei was still stunned outside, she spoke again. "If you don’t want to sleep inside, no need for you to accompany me anymore. You can leave."

Hearing that, Liu Longwei quickly stepped inside the carriage. Yes... It was not like they were going to sleep under one blanket. They would sleep separately though. Seeing this, the corner of the Bai Xifeng’s lips curved up.

....

They started the journey again after having some breakfast. On the way, they spotted Ning Shoukai and his group facing a group of beasts. It was Mud Blood Boar. Mud Blood Boar were not a strong beast but they often attacked human beings in large amount of numbers. It would be hard to fight such many opponents while it was clearly outnumbered. Right now, Bai Xifeng could tell there were about 30 Mud Blood Boars surrounding Ning Shoukai and his group.

"It is Ning Shoukai." Bai Xifeng said.

"Do you want to help him?" Liu Longwei asked.

"Hmm..." Bai Xifeng said.

They stopped the carriage far away because the horses did not dare to get closer to the place where the mud-blood boars were around. Well, the mud-blood boar ate everything with meat.

"Young Master!!!" The guard shouted.

Three mud-blood boars jumped toward Ning Shoukai. Ning Shoukai could counter one of them but the other two... Before Ning Shoukai could realize it, the other two mud-blood boars fell down the ground. He could see there was one dagger on each of the mud blood boars.

"What are you doing? Kill them." Bai Xifeng shouted.

Ning Shoukai realized it and started to kill the mud-blood boars. 10 minutes later, all of the mud-blooded boars had been killed by Ning Shoukai and his group with Bai Xifeng’s help. Liu Longwei was just watching from the side. Bai Xifeng told him not to help them. Bai Xifeng thought if Liu Longwei made his moves, she would not be able to kill anything. She wanted some exercise.

"Sir Bai, thank you." Ning Shoukai cupped his hand and thanked Bai Xifeng.

His subordinates also did the same.

"It’s nothing. I just see it and decide to help you." Bai Xifeng said.

"By the way, I thought you already arrived at Nanning City." Ning Shoukai said.

"Well... Something happened on the way." Bai Xifeng just grinned.

"I see. Forget about that. We will arrive at Nanning City in the evening if we start moving now." Ning Shoukai said.

Bai Xifeng looked over at the tired Ning Shoukai’s subordinates. Ning Shoukai also looked tired. Bai Xifeng took out 6 Energy Recovery Pills and gave them to Ning Shoukai.

"Give these pills to your subordinates too." Bai Xifeng said.

Bai Xifeng placed the pills into Ning Shoukai’s hand.

"Sir Bai... You... These pills " Ning Shoukai was shocked when he looked at the pill in his hands.
