Pulling up Ling Yuxuan, they all left the kitchen and arrived at the yard, where everyone collaborated to set up a simple fire pit next to the Stone Table.
Ziyan was teaching Ziying how to barbecue, demonstrating while grilling a few skewers and brushing some oil on them.
When they were almost done, she applied her homemade barbecue sauce made from salt, chili powder, chopped green onions, pepper, and a suitable amount of Honey.
A fragrant aroma wafted through every corner of the yard, making everyone inside salivate from the delicious smell.
Especially Zhou Laoda, who picked up a piece of Lard cake from the table and took a big bite. Not only was it crispy with a satisfying crunch, but the rich and flaky flavor also penetrated his entire nervous system.
Zhou Laoda wolfed down a few bites in no time, feeling utterly satisfied inside.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah—wow, being able to eat such delicious food is worth living two years less!"
His words drew hearty laughter from everyone present.
Grandma Zhou laughed along but then looked at him with a mix of exasperation and affection, saying, "You? There are still guests here. At your age, you act like you’ve never eaten before."
After saying that, she turned to Qin Ming and the others with an apologetic tone, "Sorry about that, sorry about that."
"Mom, there's an old saying—food is heaven for the people. What's there to be embarrassed about?"
Zhou Laoda argued shamelessly and then grinned at everyone.
Qin Ming cleverly played peacemaker: "No worries, no worries. Brother Zhou is right; food is heaven for the people. Moreover, it's rare to enjoy such earthly delights. I feel the same way as Brother Zhou."
After Zhou Laoda finished making the rounds, Qin Ming also reached out to grab a piece of Lard cake, took a bite, and praised, "This truly looks plain, but the taste is absolutely exquisite, a heavenly delicacy. Xiaoyan is really capable; whoever marries her in the future will have a lifetime of good fortune! Come on—everyone, let's eat together."
After saying that, he raised the tray to offer it to others, while playfully glancing at his only precious disciple, who was squatting beside Ziyan.
Ling Yuxuan understood the hint and smiled lightly but did not respond.
Ziyan observed from the side; nothing escaped her notice, and her lips couldn't help but twitch.
She quickly changed the subject, saying, "That's just a Lard cake; there are even better things to eat here."
With that, she raised two skewers of grilled meat in her hands for everyone to see.
Before long, Ziyan and Ling Yuxuan had eaten their fill and were ready to leave. After carefully reminding Ziying about some barbecue orders, they stepped aside.
Then, Ling Yuxuan and Ziyan quietly slipped out of the Yard and headed straight for the mountain across from them.
Once they were far enough away and saw no one following them, Ling Yuxuan suddenly wrapped his long arm around Ziyan's waist and leaped forward. It was as if he were a dragonfly skimming over water, stepping lightly on dense branches as they soared toward the location of the hot springs.
The sound of rushing wind filled their ears as Ziyan's clothes and skirt fluttered in the breeze. Feeling slightly scared, Ziyan clutched tightly onto Ling Yuxuan's neck.
However, that feeling of flying brought her immense joy. She thought to herself: I must learn lightness skill from Ling Yuxuan properly; this feeling is too wonderful!
After nearly half an hour, they arrived at the wide Deep Pool beneath the high mountain cliff waterfall.
Ziyan clearly remembered that it took them at least an hour and a half to walk there; lightness skill is indeed amazing. The incredibly handsome guy beside her is even more remarkable. Ziyan secretly delighted in this thought and couldn't help but steal a few more glances at Ling Yuxuan.
"Stop laughing and hurry up."
With one hand pulling her, they walked a few steps to the hot spring.
Ziyan secretly thought: How come all my emotions can't escape this guy's eyes? Sigh, it's really tragic!
"Go ahead, or should I help you take it off?"
Ling Yuxuan urged from the side.
"Uh? No, you, you step back!"
Ling Yuxuan shook his head!
"You, you—"
What’s going on? Ziyan looked at Ling Yuxuan in disbelief.
"Hehe—just kidding, wait for me."
By the time the words were finished, the person had already disappeared from the spot.
Uh? What is this guy up to again?
Not knowing the truth, Ziyan could only stand there feeling frustrated and waiting.
In the blink of an eye, the handsome Ling Yuxuan returned, holding a cloth bag in his hand.
He opened the bag and took out a pure white cotton robe, similar to a bathrobe, and handed it to Ziyan.
Then he said, "Change into this."
With that, he turned and leaped away, disappearing from sight.
Ziyan looked at the robe and chuckled softly: so he had hidden some personal items nearby.
Ziyan had absolute trust in Ling Yuxuan by now, so without much hesitation, she took off her clothes and put on the white bathrobe.
The robe was a bit large; it was clearly one that Ling Yuxuan had worn before.
She couldn't help but take a sniff; it carried his scent, causing Ziyan's heart to race and her face to flush.
Not long after Ziyan changed her clothes, Ling Yuxuan appeared before her wearing a matching bathrobe of the same color.
Feeling a bit shy, Ziyan lowered her head and dared not look directly at him.
At that moment, however, Ling Yuxuan stepped forward and scooped her up in a princess carry, taking her down into one of the largest Hot Spring Pools.
Once in the Hot Spring Pool, Ziyan didn't dare to move at all. She thought about her small and fragile body. Although she had been eating well and drinking plenty since getting to know Ling Yuxuan, gaining some weight in the process, even her small chest seemed to have grown slightly over these days. There was a mild feeling of fullness.
But compared to her peers in her previous life, this small body still appeared far too weak!
Although both of them were wearing bathrobes, the skin-to-skin contact in the water made Ziyan feel nervous, causing her heart to race continuously.
She gritted her teeth and planned to persuade Ling Yuxuan, who was closely pressed against her: "I'm still too young, it's not good to be so close. If your beastly nature gets the better of you, my little body won't be able to handle it, and it could lead to serious trouble."
"How about we each sit in our own pool instead?"
As she rehearsed this in her mind, she thought, oh no—she couldn't say that about his beastly nature.
How should she convince him? Just as Ziyan was about to look up and shout to the heavens, she heard Ling Yuxuan's voice beside her.
"Relax, don't be nervous. I promised you that I wouldn't do anything to you right now, and I won't. Don't overthink it; focus. I'm going to channel some energy into you. This will help you learn lightness skills more effectively. With the energy I give you, you'll definitely see better results, and it will also strengthen your physique so that you won't feel so exhausted when practicing in the future."
Huh?
Really? So that's how it is. It seems she had underestimated him. How foolish! Ziyan, thinking such lewd thoughts about such a good guy.
Sigh—
As Ziyan sighed, she repeatedly apologized in her heart to Ling Yuxuan: "I'm sorry, my dear husband. I promise to take good care of myself and wait until a few years later when I become beautiful and curvy before becoming your bride and rewarding you properly."
