Chapter 224 His Only One
They continued to explore in the woods, and every step was full of unknowns and possibilities.
Fang Weiyi followed closely, and soon, another field of lettuce came into view. Without any hesitation, they cooperated tacitly again, enjoying the pleasure of close contact with nature.
Although only lettuce was found under the thick snow, and no other wild vegetables or the herbs that Fang Weiyi had been longing for were found, this was enough to make him happy.
As the sun sets, night falls quietly as they return to the village with their full harvest.
In the village, a bonfire was blazing, and snow water turned into clear springs dancing happily in the pot. Everyone praised this hard-earned clean water source.
Seeing them return with a full load, especially the snow rabbit in Xiao Zhixue's hands, the villagers' eyes were full of envy and blessings. They knew very well that they had no chance to participate in such a delicious rabbit meat banquet, and could only watch Xiao Zhixue's skillful cooking. She cut the rabbit meat into pieces skillfully, and it slowly sank into the pot, dancing with the flames, and exuding an intoxicating aroma.
She also carefully cut the lettuce into thin slices, and waited until the rabbit meat was almost cooked before slowly dropping it into the soup. They cooked together. Soon, the air was filled with the irresistible aroma of meat. Everyone present, adults and children, secretly swallowed their saliva. Although the children were drooling, they were sensible and patient, and did not make any noise.
Finally, the meat and vegetables were perfectly blended under the magic of time. Xiao Zhixue first served a bowl of meat to her elderly parents, accompanied by golden and crispy pancakes. After tasting the food, the two elderly people praised it repeatedly, and the wrinkles on their faces seemed to be smoothed out by this delicious meal.
Afterwards, a few pieces of fragrant rabbit meat were added to Xiao Tingrui and Xiao Tingxuan's bowls. Xiao Zhixue herself was no exception and enjoyed this hard-earned family dinner time.
In just one meal, the meat from the snow rabbit was quickly shared by the family, leaving only a pot of lettuce and clear broth.
Fang Weiyi looked at the pot of gradually cooling soup, his Adam's apple rolling involuntarily. Deep down in his heart, he longed to taste the soup that contained the essence of Xiao Zhixue's cooking skills, but he couldn't say it out of face.
Xiao Zhixue seemed to be completely immersed in the world of gourmet food that she had created. She did not notice Fang Weiyi's little struggle and was just immersed in this simple and warm sense of satisfaction.
Realizing her "ignoring" him, Fang Weiyi finally plucked up his courage, quietly picked up the spatula, added some vegetables and soup to his bowl, and tasted it with trepidation.
Xiao Zhixue didn't say anything. His heart calmed down a little and he began to eat heartily.
In comparison, An Ying'er and Fang Jiawen seemed much more at ease. They made no secret of their admiration for Xiao Zhixue's cooking skills, and every bite was an ultimate pampering for their taste buds.
"Sister Zhixue's cooking skills are amazing. This is the most delicious food I have ever eaten in my life!"
An Ying'er exclaimed in admiration.
"That's right, none of the exquisite banquets in the Divine Doctor Valley are as touching as this one. I am really enjoying a feast today."
Fang Jiawen agreed, a happy smile on his face.
Fang Weiyi took a sip of the soup, and the rich but not greasy taste instantly conquered his taste buds. He looked up at Xiao Zhixue, his eyes filled with amazement, as well as deep appreciation and recognition.
At this moment, he confirmed his feelings. Xiao Zhixue was exactly the partner he wanted.
Xiao Zhixue felt Fang Weiyi's burning gaze and couldn't help feeling a little shy and unhappy. She glared at him and said coquettishly, "Just focus on eating. Why are you always staring at me?"
Fang Weiyi lowered his head slightly, smiled sheepishly, and quickly finished all the food in the bowl.
During these days, Fang Weiyi never mentioned taking Fang Jiawen back to the Valley of Divine Doctors, which made Fang Jiawen secretly relieved. He longed to continue to stay with Xiao Zhixue in this place full of warmth.
However, good times are always short-lived, and finally, Fang Weiyi had to break this moment of tranquility.
"Jia Wen, it's time for you to go back to the Divine Doctor Valley."
His words were low and firm, like a heavy hammer falling on Fang Jiawen's heart.
Fang Jiawen, who originally thought that this episode had come to an end, suddenly felt uneasy and reluctant.
"Brother, why are you bringing this up again? I told you I'm not going anywhere unless..."
There was a hint of stubbornness and persistence in his voice, "Unless I can marry Zhixue."
In his heart, Xiao Zhixue has become his only one, and a place without her is no longer a home.
Fang Weiyi had a complicated look when he heard this. He knew that this issue was not just a simple question of whether to leave or not, it involved deeper emotional entanglements and choices.
Perhaps only time can reveal the answers to all these questions.
Fang Weiyi's words were like cold frost, and every word struck the air with unquestionable determination, allowing everyone present to feel the unquestionable power contained therein.
"It's not up to you to decide. A father can't be without a son. After this meal, you have to leave."
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere around them seemed to freeze, leaving only the remaining aroma of the food floating in the silence.
Fang Weiyi's face was as gloomy as an ancient pond, his eyes were deep, and his lips were tightly pursed, showing a tough attitude. His resolute eyes seemed to say, no matter how you fight, my decision cannot be changed.
His body did not move at all, he just quietly swallowed the last bite of bread in his hand, leaning against the thick tree trunk, his posture revealed an authority and composure that could not be ignored.
Although Fang Jiawen's figure is a little thin, his unyielding pride is clearly revealed at this moment.
He stood up suddenly, put his hands on his hips, and said with anger and unwillingness, "You mean, you stay and I leave?"
His voice trembled slightly, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. It was obvious that he was extremely dissatisfied with this arrangement.
"Of course I'll stay."
Fang Weiyi answered calmly and indifferently, without even raising his head, as if all this was within his expectations.
He had absolute confidence in his martial arts and medical skills, and he knew that he was far superior to Fang Jiawen in both aspects.
Xiao Zhixue kept them because they were the descendants of the Divine Doctor Valley.
At this time, he thought that he alone could bear the responsibility of letting Fang Jiawen leave.
Fang Jiawen has never been able to gain the upper hand in an argument, and today is no exception.
Facing Fang Weiyi, his aura had been completely suppressed. He could only smile bitterly and turned his eyes to Xiao Zhixue pleadingly, hoping that she could say something to allow him to stay.
However, Xiao Zhixue seemed unaware of this expectation. She had finished her meal, stood up and walked towards the lettuces waiting to be processed, secretly calculating in her mind.
She was too lazy to care about the dispute between the two brothers. It was up to them whether to stay or go, and it had nothing to do with her.
She had already seen through it. The two brothers had their own thoughts and neither of them was easy to control.
It would be best if both of them left so that she could have some peace and quiet.
