....

With Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s beauty in front of him, Ye Feng’s voice was stuck in his throat, he was too embarra.s.sed to sing.
“Mr. Ye, sing along too.”
“Yeah, Miss Zhuang has already started. What are you still waiting for?”
“Hurry up, hurry up. She’s almost done singing…”
Under everyone’s urging, Ye Feng could only shout at the top of his lungs. “I am waiting for the beautiful lady, why haven’t you come yet…”
This short line of lyrics was not only out of tune but also had no pitch. It could be said to be extremely difficult to hear.
The exploration team covered their ears and revealed painful expressions.
“Mr. Ye, don’t sing. We’re on the same side…”
“Mr. Ye is so handsome, but I didn’t expect his singing to be so terrible.”
“Is there any connection between being handsome and singing well?”
“Mr. Ye, please, don’t sing anymore. If you sing again, the wolves will come…”
The people who had asked Ye Feng to sing earlier were now regretting their actions.
However, Ye Feng was addicted to singing, so he continued to sing without caring about anything, even Zhuang Xiaoqiao was out of tune because of him. In the end, she simply gave up and let him perform alone.
But because of Ye Feng’s performance, the atmosphere became much livelier.
Cheers and laughter echoed throughout the forest.
Even Lan Xingyue, who rarely smiled, smiled.
Under the illumination of the fire, she had a unique charm.
In the joyous atmosphere, the boar was finally cooked.
There weren’t many seasonings and only a little salt was added to the boar. The meat had a very firm texture and gamey taste. It wasn’t as delicious as domestic pigs.
However, after a day of hard work and fear, everyone was actually eating very heartily.
Even Zhuang Xiaoqiao, who was very picky about food, ate with relish.
Ye Feng saw Lan Xingyue sitting there alone, who did not rush forward to share the meat.
He took a knife and cut off a piece of thigh meat that was relatively better in quality. He handed it to her. “You’re injured today and your vitality has been hurt. Eat some meat to nourish yourself.”
Lan Xingyue was stunned and looked at him blankly.
“Don’t worry. I didn’t drug you.” Ye Feng was afraid that she would be embarra.s.sed, so he joked.
“Thank you.” Lan Xingyue smiled and reached out to take the meat. She began to eat it in small bites.
When Ye Feng sat back down, he realized that Zhuang Xiaoqiao was staring at him with a sharp gaze.
“Ahem, Captain Lan was injured today. It’s only right to take care of her, right?” He explained, but it sounded like he was trying to cover it up.
“I was also shocked today. Shouldn’t I be nourished?” Zhuang Xiaoqiao glared at him angrily.
“Of course you should. You have to be nourished well. I’ll help you pick a good piece of meat.” Ye Feng said as he cut off a piece of meat from the remaining boar and gave it to her.
“I don’t want this piece. I want to eat leg meat.” Zhuang Xiaoqiao threw a tantrum.
“There’s no more leg meat.” Ye Feng pointed at the wild boar that had lost its four limbs. He was in a difficult position.
“No, I want to eat leg meat.” It was not clear what was wrong with Zhuang Xiaoqiao, but she suddenly lost her temper and raised her voice.
The exploration team members who were chatting and laughing all quieted down and looked at the two curiously.
The two of them had just been flirting and even sang a song called “Meeting in Aobao,” which they had a somewhat tacit understanding of. Why did they start to quarrel in the blink of an eye?
Ye Feng laughed awkwardly. “If you want to eat leg meat, then when we return to the city, I will treat you until you vomit, is that okay?”
“No, I want to eat it now.” Zhuang Xiaoqiao glared at him stubbornly.
“There’s none left now. I can’t go to the forest to kill another one for you, right? Why don’t I cut off a piece of my thigh and roast it for you?” Ye Feng wanted to use a joke to ease the awkward atmosphere.
However, Zhuang Xiaoqiao was even more enthusiastic. “Sure, go ahead and cut it. If you dare to cut it, I’ll dare to eat it.”
Ye Feng’s expression also started to turn dark, he did not know what was wrong with her.
At this moment, Lan Xingyue handed over the piece of boar leg in her hand. “Miss Zhuang, you can eat mine. I don’t have an appet.i.te anyway.”
Zhuang Xiaoqiao did not appreciate it. “He gave it to you. I don’t want it.”
Ye Feng could no longer suppress his anger, he slapped the piece of meat on the ground. “If you don’t want to eat it, then get lost.”
Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s tears started to flow. “Ye Feng, I hate you!”
With that, she got up and ran into the tent.
The originally lively atmosphere was instantly silenced after this commotion.
“I’ll go check on her.” Lan Xingyue stood up with some difficulty and followed her into the tent.
Because there were only two girls on the team, they were given a small tent.
The remaining group of men squeezed into a big tent.
The banquet ended in an awkward atmosphere.
Ye Feng took the initiative to stand guard.
After everyone returned to their tents to rest, he sat by the fire and began to reflect.
Now that he had calmed down, he gradually understood why Zhuang Xiaoqiao had suddenly lost her temper.
She was probably jealous because she saw him giving Lan Xingyue meat.
Actually, he did not think too much about it at that time. He just felt that Lan Xingyue was injured and needed to be taken care of.
However, he did not expect Zhuang Xiaoqiao to be so jealous.
She knew that he had many women around him, but she had never been jealous before.
He did not know what was wrong with her today.
Just as he was deep in thought, Lan Xingyue walked out of the tent and sat opposite him. “Go in and comfort her.”
Ye Feng was also angry. “Why should I comfort her? If I comfort her, who will comfort me?”
Lan Xingyue couldn’t help but smile bitterly. “She’s a girl, after all. To save you today, she even rushed at the wild boar without caring about her own safety. She must be emotionally unstable after being so frightened. At this time, she needs your concern.”
When Ye Feng heard her mention what happened during the day, he also remembered the scene of Zhuang Xiaoqiao charging at the wild boar with a dagger in order to save him, and his heart softened.
Without saying a word, he stood up and walked into the tent.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was sitting in the tent wiping her tears. When she saw him enter, she immediately turned her face away.
“Still angry?” Ye Feng sat beside her, he wanted to put his hand on her shoulder.
However, Zhuang Xiaoqiao moved away to avoid his touch.
Ye Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly. “It was my fault just now, I shouldn’t have lost my temper at you, now I sincerely apologize to you, can you forgive me?”
Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s back was facing him, and her delicate body was twitching with her cries. It was obvious that she had not recovered from her sadness.
Ye Feng did not know what to say, he could only sit quietly beside her.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao waited for a long time but did not hear anything else. She became angrier. “That’s it?”
“Ah?” Ye Feng was stunned. “Then what else do you want me to do?”
