Chapter 336 - 336 Barbecue Before the Battle
336 Barbecue Before the Battle
“Smarty pants!” Qiao Yanhui sneered.
When Xu Qing saw how confident Qiao Yanhui was, she had a bad feeling. It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Qiao Yanhui, but she felt uneasy! Every time she had this feeling, an accident would happen.
Seeing Xu Qing like this, Qiao Yanhui was a little worried. “What’s wrong?”
Xu Qing asked Qiao Yanhui to tell her about the trap he had set up this time. However, even after hearing his explanation, her frown remained. This puzzled Qiao Yanhui, but since Xu Qing felt that he had missed something, he would think about it again.
Suddenly, Xu Qing’s eyes lit up and she looked at Qiao Yanhui with a mixed expression. “You factored in all the people, but what about Ao Jie? You didn’t factor him!”
Qiao Yanhui looked down at Xu Qing as he said, “Ao Jie!”
Xu Qing nodded. Although she believed that Ao Jie wouldn’t hurt Qiao Yanhui, she still felt a little uneasy, since they didn’t expect Lin Shu to know hypnosis, and it was high-level hypnosis.
Qiao Yanhui caressed Xu Qing’s hair as his eyes flickered.
Soon, the group set off majestically.
Xu Qing had also sent people from the Dark Night Army to protect the children, but only Xu Sizhi and the others appeared out in the open.
Even Xie Pengyang and Xu Huai were here. They now had enough ability to protect themselves and even the children.
Xu Qing wanted them to come out and take a look to broaden their horizons. As for Xu Jiangxi and the others, Xu Qing really couldn’t bring them along, so she ordered them not to leave the Qiao family’s home.
Xu Qing’s family was well-protected, and she also believed that Qiao Yanhui was confident in obtaining victory. After this, there would be fewer threats to them.
Because there would be a parade on the streets, the sun was about to set by the time they arrived. However, this didn’t affect Ao Heng from enjoying it. He was in the center, and a circle formed around him, protecting him.
Xu Qing woke up in Qiao Yanhui’s arms. Then, an charming voice came from above her head. “You’re finally awake. Are you hungry?”
“We’re here?” When Xu Qing looked around and realized that there were actually many people standing around, she immediately blushed. “Ahem, put me down.”
Qiao Yanhui put Xu Qing down obediently.
When Xu Qing saw the four children who were covering their eyes but watching through the gaps, she blushed even more and said awkwardly, “I’ll make delicious food for you guys.”
“Yay!” The four children hurriedly clapped.
As Xu Xiang leaned against Xu Huai with a lollipop in her mouth, her eyes were filled with envy. She hoped that she and Brother Sizhi would be as intimate and loving in the future. With this in mind, she subconsciously looked at Xu Sizhi, but Xu Sizhi stared into the distance indifferently. It was unknown what he was thinking.
Xu Xiang pouted in dissatisfaction and was a little vexed by her mature thoughts! Although she didn’t understand what love was, she didn’t want to be separated from Xu Sizhi. Her sister had said that she would know what love was when she grew up.
On the first night, because the hunt hadn’t begun, Ao Heng asked everyone to settle dinner on their own. When they had harvests tomorrow, they would hold a meat banquet for seven days in a row.
However, it had to be said that Ao Heng was very idle. Rumor had it that he only hunted for three to five days in the past two years! The hunting period was very long, so Ao Heng wouldn’t hunt in the first two days. Therefore, Xu Qing and the others had the chance to enjoy the hunting experience.
After Xu Qing got someone to set up a large fire, the family sat around the fire and prepared to eat barbecue.
“The mountains and rivers here are so beautiful. Enjoying the view while barbecuing is a wonderful experience.” Xu Qing took out the bottles and jars she had specifically prepared. These were all good barbecue ingredients.
As Xue’er looked at the pile of meat, she almost drooled.
Qi Yi had never tasted Xu Qing’s cooking before, but when he saw the expectant expressions on Yuan’er and the others’ faces, he started to look forward to it.
“You guys are actually enjoying delicious food here without informing us. How heartless.” Hua Yuncheng’s voice suddenly sounded.
The Deng siblings came with them. Deng Jiangming was still the same as usual, but Deng Chengxi had a smile on her face. It was the smile Xu Qing was familiar with.
She knew that the old Deng Chengxi was back!
Although Deng Chengxi still couldn’t forget Yi Chulin, she knew that Yi Chulin would obtain happiness soon, so she was no longer so tormented.
This was quite gratifying for everyone. At least, it meant that Deng Chengxi wasn’t a hopeless romantic beyond saving.
