Ever since Chen Yuhe arrived at Shiliu Village yesterday, the villagers had already taken notice.

However, everyone was guessing and discussing behind her back, without anyone coming forward to ask who she was.

Now that Wang Yan had asked the question, all eyes were on Ling Feng, waiting to see how he would respond.

The result was that Ling Feng just smiled and said, "This is my friend, she’s here to visit."

"Friend? A girlfriend, right?" Wang Yan’s eyes spun teasingly as she asked.

"Of course not, don’t talk nonsense!" Ling Feng immediately denied.

"Oh, if it is so, then be proud of having such a beautiful girlfriend. Are you afraid someone else will get jealous?" Wang Yan asked with a smile.

Ling Feng looked up at her and said, "Yeah, afraid that you’ll get jealous!"

"Pfft!" Wang Yan rolled her eyes, not finding it appropriate to say more in front of so many people.

The village had a small population, with just over twenty households. After distributing to everyone, Ling Feng still had forty or fifty pounds of meat left because a few families hadn’t come.

The Huaihua family, the Li Yumei family, and Village Chief Li Shiyun had not appeared. After Ling Feng had finished packing everything up, he first asked Chen Yuhe to help carry water and then left the house carrying twenty pounds of meat.

Arriving at Huaihua’s house, he called out from outside the door and saw her rushing out of the house hurriedly.

"Why didn’t you come and get it from my house? Now I have brought it to you!" Ling Feng said with a smile.

Huaihua smiled a bit sheepishly, "My mom isn’t home, so I didn’t go."

"You girl, you should get out more when you’re home. What’s there to be shy about?" Ling Feng said, laughing.

Huaihua pursed her lips and stayed silent. Seeing this, Ling Feng had no choice but to hand over the meat, "Then you can wait until your aunt is back to eat it. Take it inside for now."

"Um, brother, do you want to come in for a while?" Huaihua asked with a blush on her face.

Ling Feng was tempted, thinking it was a good opportunity, but remembering that Chen Yuhe was still at home boiling water, he shook his head, "No, I have guests at home. I still need to go back and cook after delivering the meat."

"Oh, okay then," Huaihua nodded.

After leaving her house, he went to Li Yumei’s place, only to find the door locked—she wasn’t at home!

Ling Feng was puzzled, so he took out his phone and called her, "Yu Mei, why aren’t you at home in the middle of the day?"

"I have gone back to my parents’ place, it’s been three days now," Li Yumei said.

"No wonder," Ling Feng remarked, now realizing why he hadn’t seen her around for the past few days.

He smiled and said, "That’s fine then, when will you come back? Do you want me to pick you up?"

"Not sure yet, I’ll let you know," Li Yumei hesitated before answering.

Ling Feng was taken aback, "Yu Mei, there isn’t something wrong, is there?"

"Nothing’s wrong, I’ll notify you in advance when I’m coming back."

"Alright, I’ll wait for your message."

After hanging up, Ling Feng carried the meat back home. Passing by the village committee office, he saw the gate was locked. He guessed Li Shiyun might have gone to a meeting in town and didn’t think much of it, heading straight back to his house.

The water in the pot was boiling, so he simply added the remaining meat into it and then said to Chen Yuhe, "Leave the rest to me!"

"I can help you!" Chen Yuhe stood up and offered.

"Alright then."

The two had spent enough time together to be familiar with each other and didn’t need to stand on ceremony.

After being busy for a while, half an hour later, a rich aroma of stewed meat began wafting from the pot! 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Not just from Ling Feng’s home, the entire village of Shiliu was enveloped in the fragrance of the stewed meat.

Chen Yuhe stood by the pot, the aroma alone making her feel like her mouth was watering.

Ling Feng lifted the lid of the pot and tried a piece with chopsticks, then shook his head, "No good, it’s not tender yet. It looks like this wolf meat is tough, we need to put in more effort. Yuhe, can you peel some garlic?"

"Sure!" Chen Yuhe immediately nodded.

It wasn’t until one o’clock in the afternoon that the tender wolf meat was finally served on the table. Ling Feng tore off a piece, put it into his mouth, and his eyes lit up instantly, "Delicious!"

Chen Yuhe couldn’t wait to take a bite as well and nodded in agreement, "Very fragrant!"

"It should taste even better with garlic! Let me try!" Ling Feng took the plate of garlic.

Indeed, after dipping it in garlic paste, the wolf meat had an even more unique flavor. Ling Feng simply used his hands and started devouring the meat in large bites.

Chen Yuhe was not to be outdone. She grabbed a bone and gnawed on it without any concern for appearances.

As the two ate inside, Wang Cai’s head poked through the door, cast a sorrowful look at them, but remained silent and turned to go.

The caught rabbits were not given to roast, so it knew Ling Feng didn’t have time now. It had to go back to eating raw meat.

After a satisfying feast, Chen Yuhe, with her hands covered in grease, contentedly said, "That was so delicious, I haven’t eaten meat this tasty in a long time!"

"It’s a pity wolves aren’t common, or else I could let you eat it more often," Ling Feng said with a smile.

"Better not, wolves are too fierce. I’m afraid you’ll be in danger," Chen Yuhe shook her head.

Ling Feng felt a warmth in his heart as he looked at her, "Are you full? There’s still a lot left!"

"Full, full, I’ll burst if I eat any more," Chen Yuhe got up and went to wash her hands.

Ling Feng had also eaten his fill, so he followed to wash his hands, and then tidied up the table a bit.

He thought to himself that they couldn’t finish so much meat. When Li Shiyun came back in the evening, he would send some to her too, for her to have a taste.

Just as he thought of this, his phone in his pocket suddenly rang. Ling Feng took it out and saw that it was Mo Jiaolan calling, so he glanced at Chen Yuhe.

Chen Yuhe came over and looked, immediately getting a bit nervous, "Don’t tell her I’m here."

Ling Feng nodded slightly and answered, "Jiaolan, what’s up? You need me for something?"

"Ling Feng, have you heard from Yuhe?" Mo Jiaolan asked from the other end.

"No, what’s up?"

"Oh, it’s nothing then, I was just asking," Mo Jiaolan said and then hung up the phone abruptly.

Ling Feng gave a wry smile, looking at Chen Yuhe, "She didn’t say what’s wrong with you."

"That’s because she doesn’t want you to worry. If I weren’t here with you, and she told you I was missing, would you be anxious?" Chen Yuhe asked.

Ling Feng was taken aback, thought for a moment, and realized he actually would be worried!

So he admitted honestly, "Yes, I would. I’d rush to the county town right away to find out what happened, and then help look for you!"

Chen Yuhe was pleased with his answer, nodded, and said, "Then I’m relieved."

"What do you mean?" Ling Feng asked.

Seeing his expression, she knew he was feigning ignorance, so Chen Yuhe rolled her eyes at him, "It means nothing!"

Ling Feng chuckled mischievously, feeling that this girl seemed to have developed a liking for him!

But then he grew serious and said, "Actually, this isn’t good. Jiaolan is so worried about you, she must be beside herself right now, and your family must be anxious too."

Chen Yuhe ignored the latter part of his statement and glanced at him sideways, "What, you’re worried because my cousin is upset?"

"That’s not what I mean, but this really isn’t good!" Ling Feng quickly explained.

"You have a point. Originally it wasn’t related to her, but it’s my fault she’s worried because of me," Chen Yuhe nodded, then suddenly came up with an idea, looking at Ling Feng, "How about I invite her over here too?"
