Seeing Shuang Yun’s nervous appearance, Huanhuan couldn’t help but tease him. “A grown woman can’t be kept. Big Goody will get married sooner or later. You can’t keep guarding her and not let her find true love.”

“If she really meets her true love, even if I’m unwilling, I’ll still let her get married. However, none of the sons in He Zong’s family are suitable for her. It’s impossible between them.”

Huanhuan said slowly, “How can you be so sure that there’s no possibility between them?”

“He Zong wants Big Goody to marry his son not because he thinks she’s outstanding but because he wants to use her identity to become in-laws with you. He’s just using Big Goody as a pawn. I won’t give him the chance.”

Shuang Yun had thought it through. It was fine for Big Goody to have mates, but they had to be sincere and good to Big Goody. Her mates could not have other motives.

Huanhuan nodded. “I won’t give him the chance either.”

Shuang Yun suddenly leaned in front of her and sniffed. “Why do you smell burned? Were you burning something just now?”

Bai Di said, “She just burned a book.”

“What book?”

Before Bai Di could speak, Huanhuan said, “It’s just a very ordinary book.”

With that, she looked eagerly at Bai Di, begging him not to tell the truth.

With Shuang Yun’s jealous temper, if he knew that she was reading a book titled ‘365 Moves to Flirt with a Hero’, he would immediately fall out with her.

Bai Di stroked her head and echoed gently, “Yes, it’s a very ordinary book.”

When Shuang Yun saw the two of them looking at each other with love in their eyes, his heart couldn’t help but ache. “How long do you want to see each other? Are you going to pretend I don’t exist?”

Huanhuan looked away and reached out to lean against Shuang Yun. She hugged his neck and nuzzled his cheek.

When the little female wheedled, the sour taste in Shuang Yun’s heart immediately turned sweet.

He hugged Huanhuan happily.

Bai Di picked up his teacup and left.

During lunch, Shuang Jing came to freeload again.

Huanhuan glared at him angrily. “Don’t you have food at home?”

“I have food at home, but it’s not as delicious as yours.” Shuang Jing sat down on the cushion and looked at the dishes on the table. He gulped. “Are you eating roasted chicken today? I love chicken!”

“You said yesterday that fish is your favorite.”

“When your family eats fish, I like fish the most. When your family eats chicken, I like chicken the most.”

Shuang Jing said it matter-of-factly and shamelessly.

Huanhuan rolled her eyes.

As soon as Bai Di said it was time to eat, Shuang Jing reached for the drumstick. Huanhuan slapped the back of her hand with her chopsticks.

Shuang Jing frowned in pain. “Why did you hit me for no reason?”

Huanhuan said slowly, “The drumsticks are for my son and daughter. You don’t have a share!”

She picked up the two large drumsticks, one for Eggy and one for Clement.

No matter how gluttonous Shuang Jing was, he was too embarrassed to snatch food from the cubs. Hence, he reached for the chicken wings.

Huanhuan slapped the back of his hand again. “The chicken wings are for Bai Di. He worked hard for a long time to make such a big table of food. We have to reward him.”

She was right. Shuang Jing had no choice but to resentfully withdraw his hand and watch as she placed two large chicken wings into Bai Di’s bowl.

He reached for his food a third time. This time, his target was the chicken breast. At the same time, he made up his mind.

No matter how Huanhuan slapped the back of his hand this time, he had to eat the chicken breast without stopping!

But before he could touch the roasted chicken, Huanhuan brought the entire chicken to him.

She took out a bone knife and cut off the tender chicken breast piece by piece. She distributed it to Shuang Yun, Sang Ye, and Xue Ling.

As it was a divine artifact, the bone knife was sharp enough to cut through anything. It was extremely nimble when cutting chicken.

In a short while, she had cleaned the entire roasted chicken, leaving only a pile of bones as well as the butt and head.

She placed the chicken butt and head in Shuang Jing’s bowl.

“You’re welcome. Now hurry up and eat!”

Shuang Jing: “…”

If not for the fact that she was the prophet, he would have pounced on her now!

Seeing that he was gritting his teeth in anger, she said, “Don’t you like to eat chicken butt and chicken head? If you don’t like them, give them to Clement. He’s not full yet.”

As soon as she reached out, Shuang Jing quickly stuffed the chicken butt and head into his mouth and chewed.

It was better to have something to eat than nothing!

Huanhuan asked him if it was delicious.

Shuang Jing was afraid that if he said it wasn’t delicious, he wouldn’t be able to come to their house to freeload in the future, so he tactfully nodded and said it was delicious.

Huanhuan smiled kindly. “Then from now on, you can have all our chicken butts and heads.”

Shuang Jing: “…”

He wanted to curse. Could he?

After dinner, Shuang Jing said that the first elder would be executed tomorrow morning and asked if any of them wanted to see it.

Huanhuan was still thinking about the matter of the gifts and was not in the mood to watch the commotion. Moreover, execution and murder were such bloody matters. What was there to see?

She shook her head rather quickly and said no.

On the other hand, Shuang Yun and Xue Ling were bored and said that they wanted to see what would happen to the first elder.

Even Eggy flapped her wings and shouted, “I want to go too! I want to go too!”

Xue Ling had always agreed to his precious daughter’s requests. Seeing that she wanted to go, he agreed without hesitation. “Yes, come with me tomorrow.”

Eggy flew happily around the house twice.

Clement leaned on his mother’s shoulder and glanced at Eggy’s round body. He thought that she had become fat again. She must be delicious.

Unfortunately, his mother wouldn’t let him eat their family.

Damn it!

In order to prevent them from asking about the sheepskin book again, Huanhuan specially took a shower to wash the charred smell off her body.

Bai Di dried her hair. “What are you thinking?” he asked when she was distracted.

Huanhuan blurted out, “I’m thinking about what to give you.”

After saying that, she realized what she had said. She couldn’t help but blush, feeling a little embarrassed.

Bai Di smiled. “It doesn’t have to be too complicated or expensive. It just has to express your feelings.”

“There are many things that can express one’s feelings, but I don’t know what to choose.”

“Pick what you like.” He hugged her from behind. “We’ll like anything you like.”

Huanhuan looked thoughtful.

Bai Di kissed her earlobe. “It’s getting late. Go to sleep.”

“Oh.”

The next morning, as soon as they finished breakfast, Shuang Yun and Xue Ling went down the mountain with Eggy.

Before they left, they specially came to look for Huanhuan and asked her if she needed anything from down the mountain.

Huanhuan thought for a moment. “Bring me back a few clay pots.”
