Feeding

Lu Yuan applied the medicine quickly. After applying the medicine, he took out clean gauze and bandaged Zhu Zhuqing's wound.

Then he pulled down Zhu Zhuqing's short shirt and buttoned up her leather jacket.

After completing this series of actions, it can be considered to be over.

Lu Yuan put away the ointment and other items, then took out some water, washed his hands, and looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who was still lying there, and asked, "How are you feeling?"

"Okay, much better, thank you!" Zhu Zhuqing's usually cold face was slightly flushed, but her voice was clear and cool with Sisi shyness.

"That's good!" Lu Yuan sat down cross-legged, picked up the roasted meat from before, looked at it, and found that it had already cooled down.

Cleaning and bandaging Zhu Zhuqing's wounds took too much time, and the barbecue had long since gone cold.

Lu Yuan frowned, put the roasted meat aside, took out a large piece of new Exploding Flame Tiger meat, cleaned it, cut it into small pieces, made a wooden pot on the spot, put the Exploding Flame Tiger meat into the pot, added water, and started to stew it.

On this side, two wooden bowls, a wooden spoon, and two pairs of chopsticks were made.

Unfortunately, Lu Yuan usually only carries seasonings with him; he doesn't bring cooking utensils or bowls and chopsticks.

Actually, there wasn't a big problem, since he usually grilled it. But now that Zhu Zhuqing is here and he's seriously injured, grilled meat is too greasy and won't help him recover, so he can't eat it anymore.

This is Lu Yuan. Sometimes he doesn't like to talk much, but his actions show that he has already considered all the possible scenarios.

After preparing the bowls and chopsticks, wash them one by one with clean water.

By this time, the broth in the pot had boiled. Skim off the foam with a wooden spoon, then add salt and some medicinal herbs, and simmer again.

While stewing Exploding Flame Tiger meat alone can be quite effective, the therapeutic effect will be even better if it is combined with medicinal herbs.

Zhu Zhuqing watched Lu Yuan's actions quietly, her eyes, which had been devoid of life and warmth, now showing a Sisi gratitude.

She was a smart person, and when Lu Yuan chose not to eat the roasted meat but instead stewed it and added so many medicinal herbs, Zhu Zhuqing naturally knew that he was thinking of her.

From childhood to adulthood, Zhu Zhuqing had never experienced the feeling of being cared for by others; the vast Duke's Mansion only brought her endless coldness and darkness.

Her fiancé, on whom everyone had placed their hopes, couldn't withstand the pressure and chose to leave home, which undoubtedly dealt her a heavy blow.

But she was unwilling to accept it. She was only nine years old and had a long future ahead of her. She didn't want to lose her life like that.

She didn't want to die.

So when she heard about the Ancient Ruins, she immediately chose to come in. If she could gain some opportunities in these Ancient Ruins, she might have a chance to defeat her sister and control her own destiny in the future.

So even though the ruins were fraught with danger and she faced a life-or-death situation, she did not choose to retreat.

However, the ruins were truly fraught with danger. She had only been inside for a short time when she encountered several Hundred-Year Soul Beasts. Although she did her best to kill them, she was also seriously injured in the arm by them.

Today, they have been targeted by a thousand-year-old Soul Beast.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't know what kind of Soul Beast the mosquito was, but it was incredibly powerful. She used almost all her strength, but was still severely injured in the abdomen by the mosquito and had no choice but to flee.

She was Agility-Attack Soul Master, and speed was her advantage. However, even after exhausting her Soul Power, she still couldn't escape the mosquito's pursuit. Just when she was in despair, the boy in front of her saved her.

The boy's strength shocked Zhu Zhuqing. The mosquito Soul Beast, which she had struggled to defeat and could only flee in a sorry state, was killed by the person in front of her with a single blow.

Although he was masked, an undeniable aura emanated from him. Zhu Zhuqing, who had been raised with aristocratic etiquette, knew that the young man before her was definitely not simple.

Moreover, she was hugged twice by the boy in front of her and her body was seen, leaving Zhu Zhuqing feeling somewhat bewildered.

She was a conservative person, but despite being in the process of healing, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but have fantasies, and the man's embrace was indeed very grand and comfortable.

Remembering the pleasant scent emanating from Lu Yuan when he held her in his arms, Zhu Zhuqing blushed.

She couldn't help but compare the man in front of her to her fiancé, only to find that they were not even on the same level. In every aspect, her fiancé seemed far inferior to him.

"I just wonder what he looks like?" Lu Yuan's temperament was undoubtedly otherworldly, but girls are generally more concerned about appearance, and Zhu Zhuqing was no exception. She was really looking forward to seeing what kind of celestial face was hidden under Lu Yuan's gorgeous mask.

"It's ready!" Lu Yuan lifted the pot lid, and the aroma of stewed meat wafted out, along with the fragrance of medicinal herbs, making it exceptionally tempting.

Upon smelling the aroma, Zhu Zhuqing, who hadn't eaten a single grain of rice all day, involuntarily let out a rumbling stomach, causing her cheeks to flush with embarrassment.

"Heh!" Lu Yuan chuckled, making Zhu Zhuqing even more embarrassed.

Lu Yuan picked up a wooden spoon, filled a bowl to the brim, and placed it in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

"Can you get up?" he asked, looking at Zhu Zhuqing lying beside him.

Zhu Zhuqing struggled to get up, only to feel a sharp pain in her abdomen and no strength in her body. She could only shake her head helplessly.

Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Let me help you up!"

Zhu Zhuqing blushed and nodded.

Lu Yuan slowly helped Zhu Zhuqing, letting her lean against a tree nearby, and then picked up the bowl of meat soup and chopsticks.

"Eat up!" Lu Yuan picked up a piece of meat and held it to Zhu Zhuqing's lips.

"I... I can do it myself!" Zhu Zhuqing said softly.

Lu Yuan glanced at her indifferently, "You still have strength in your hand?"

Zhu Zhuqing remained silent. Her arm was severely injured and she couldn't even lift it, so how could she possibly eat by herself?

"Don't be stubborn!" Lu Yuan once again held the meat to Zhu Zhuqing's mouth.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't eat; she just looked up at him.

Lu Yuan glanced at Zhu Zhuqing indifferently, the unyielding look in his eyes making Zhu Zhuqing's heart skip a beat.

Unconsciously, she opened her cherry-like mouth and put the piece of tiger meat into it.

Lu Yuan nodded slightly, then picked up another piece of meat.

Zhu Zhuqing chewed and swallowed the tiger meat she had eaten earlier, and then took the piece of meat that Lu Yuan handed her again.

Lu Yuan fed her very attentively, and Zhu Zhuqing ate while watching Lu Yuan.

"This man is so domineering!" This was Zhu Zhuqing's opinion of Lu Yuan.

However, for some reason, Zhu Zhuqing felt no aversion to Lu Yuan's domineering attitude.

One fed the other, and they ate, and soon the big bowl of meat soup was completely gone.
