Chapter 739: Chapter 739
Xiang Wenxin's remark was really casual, as if Feng Xiaoyue was already her sister-in-law. Sigh...
The key point was that Xiang Wenhua was getting sentimental again, and Brother Xuan had given me another task, wasn't he asking me to compete for Feng Xiaoyue?
Sigh~~~ The pressure was immense, how to resolve it? I couldn't afford to offend either of these two deities!
Liu Zhizhong could only mope and say, "Little Aunt Xin, it's not as good as you think, right? I am Mr. L, Director Feng is my golden backer, and he's given me the right to live in this villa, that's legitimate, isn't it?"
"Barely legitimate! Alright, I'll just take it as legitimate for you. Come on, let's grill some BBQ, Little Aunt is really getting hungry..."
Saying that, Xiang Wenxin even patted her stomach, that small waist, that flat abdomen, under the cow print dress, was so tempting! Ah, this beautiful, charming, and sexy Southern cow...
Not to mention, you really can't look at her too much, it could wilden one's heart...
Liu Zhizhong quickly set up the motorhome, and arranged the barbecue stand.
Then he took out the chilled catfish meat, soft-shelled turtle meat, and such from the cooler, and he began to defrost and prepare them.
The battery of the motorhome had a large capacity, and it had been powering the cooler all along, so the chilled ingredients were also extremely well preserved.
Liu Zhizhong whipped up a barbecue that was rich in color, aroma, and taste, sizzling with oil, which whetted Xiang Wenxin's appetite greatly.
As he grilled, Xiang Wenxin ate eagerly, drinking some chilled beer too, calling it incredibly satisfying and refreshing!
The river delicacies were indeed domineering, utterly delicious, fragrant, and chewy. Xiang Wenxin was all praises, her appetite wide open, gobbling down in rapid succession, not even caring about maintaining her grace and image.
Seeing her so happy while eating, Liu Zhizhong was content as well.
From time to time, Liu Zhizhong also had a skewer, clinking beer glasses with her.
Even, Xiang Wenxin video-called her brother to let him see the scene and told him he might never have tasted such delicious river seafood BBQ in his life.
Xiang Wenhua was skeptical and said that he really wanted to taste it and give it a try on the evening he comes over for the funeral.
Of course, Liu Zhizhong welcomed him, but to himself, he thought, by that time I'll be 'sick', and you, my wild father-in-law, might have to wait a bit longer!
Everything had to revolve around my 'illness', haha...
The delightful barbecue late-night meal went on, with Xiang Wenxin getting a bit tipsy but not heavily drunk. This Southern girl was bold and quirky, but when it came to drinking outside, she really had self-control.
Liu Zhizhong said his throat wasn't feeling very good, which was why he also drank less. Thıs text ıs hosted at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⁂𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⁂𝕟𝕖𝕥
Xiang Wenxin asked what's wrong with his throat, if he had caught a cold?
Liu Zhizhong was just laying the groundwork for his upcoming 'illness'.
Thus, he mentioned that he had felt somewhat unwell lately, occasionally feeling a blockage and an itching sensation, wanting to cough but then the feeling would dissipate quickly.
Xiang Wenxin said to be careful, as it might be pharyngitis. Once someone has this chronic condition, it's very hard to cure.
Liu Zhizhong said that after the funeral, he would go get checked at the hospital.
Xiang Wenxin agreed that a check-up was a good idea, then suggested that she accompany Little Aunt on a tour of Hu Yang Province, which would be cheerful and pleasant.
Liu Zhizhong smiled and replied, "Indeed, traveling, enjoying the water, and interacting with nature are all beneficial. When the body's positive energy aligns with the energy of the universe, it gets stimulated and has boundless utilities."
"Mm, you make some sense. No wonder I love wandering around, playing and enjoying my freedom; it makes me feel so much better."
"When the family grows big, the power strengthens, and you're not short of money anymore, of course..."
"Haha... Don't mention the family, Little Aunt is just a mortal..."
In fact, throughout the barbecue late-night meal, Liu Zhizhong felt that Xiang Wenxin spoke with restraint, very seldom discussing family affairs.
Liu Zhizhong probed intentionally and unintentionally, but she avoided the topic. It was a rule, a line not to be crossed, so Liu Zhizhong didn't press the issue further.
When they had almost eaten their fill, Xiang Wenxin said she was nearly full and couldn't eat or drink anymore, so it was time to rest.
Liu Zhizhong didn't insist on her continuing to eat and drink; instead, he led her inside the house and arranged for her the best guest room.
After formally saying goodnight at the door, Liu Zhizhong turned and left.
From his ears, the sound of Xiang Wenxin closing and locking the door behind him transmitted, and he smiled faintly. The hot Southern girl was conservative when she needed to be, which was quite precious.
Liu Zhizhong returned to the courtyard, sat down to smoke a cigarette, drank a few sips of beer, and admired the stars and moon in the sky while pondering the future, quite relaxed and at ease.
After tidying up, he went back to his room, washed up, and lay down, sleeping until 6:30 the next morning when his biological clock woke him punctually.
On waking, he was brimming with energy and vitality! He had been busy enough the night before and had burned a lot of energy, but the dinner and late-night barbecue were truly replenishing, quite energizing.
He busied himself with preparing a hearty breakfast and by 7:30 a.m., he went to wake Xiang Wenxin up for breakfast.
After knocking on the door, Xiang Wenxin opened it soon after, her attractive body covered in a loose cow-print nightgown, rippling and enticing.
But upon seeing Xiang Wenxin's face, Liu Zhizhong was completely stunned: "Ah... Little Aunt Xin, you... you..."
