Chapter 2650: Smells Amazing

His gaze was intense, three parts probing, seven parts inquisitive.

The Xie siblings were taken aback when they saw his eyes locked on Feng Jiu. They followed his gaze and saw Feng Jiu. They had no idea what he was looking at.

Feng Jiu, who was tidying up the branches, was obviously aware of it, but she paid no attention to it and didn’t even look back.

“Do you eat fruit, Big Brother Guo? I have some fruit here.” Xie s.h.i.+si said as she took out the fruit her brother had given her and handed it to him.

Guo Xinning came to his senses, took his gaze away from Feng Jiu, and smiled gently at Xie s.h.i.+si. “No, please keep it for yourself!” He left and returned to the front after nodding to them.

When Xie s.h.i.+si saw this, she couldn’t help but bow her head with melancholy.

“Do you like Big Brother Guo, Little Sister?” Xie Yutang hesitated before asking in hushed tones. They were sitting on the opposite side and no one spotted them, so nothing they said was heard.

Xie s.h.i.+si looked up at her brother with confusion and responded, “No, Big Brother, why do you ask?” Despite her denial, she was unable to deceive Xie Yutang with her evasive glance and fl.u.s.tered look.

He pointed out to his sister the black-clad Guo Xinning who was discussing with the middle-aged guy. “Little s.h.i.+, Big Brother Guo is already a Nascent Soul Peak cultivator. He achieved this cultivation level with his own efforts, without the aid of medicinal pills. His standing within the Guo family is likewise quite special.”

He did not state it explicitly, but instead told her the distance between him and them in the hope that her sister would figure it out.

How could a girl’s heart not be stirred by a man with such an excellent appearance, temperament, and strength? They were, however, simply a collateral line of the Xie family. Moreover, he did not believe that their siblings had anything exceptional to recommend.

It might be all right to get acquainted with each other as friends, but when it came to marriage, he didn’t think his sister would be accepted by the Guo family. This was not because he looked down on his sister, but because the circ.u.mstances were placed in front of him.

With a curve at the corner of her lips, Feng Jiu listened in the back. The silly boy saw it clearly. It appeared that he had made some progress in enduring adversity.

Xie s.h.i.+si hung her head sadly and whispered, “I understand, Big Brother.”

Xie Yutang said nothing more, but simply looked at Feng Jiu and said, “Let’s light the fire, too! After walking all day, I’d like to replenish my strength with some meat.”

“Alright.” Feng Jiu smiled, lit the fire, and then took out the meat they had roasted earlier and heated it before eating.

When the others in the two fire pits in front, who were also roasting meat, smelled the meat aroma from the opposite side, they couldn’t help but look back and saw the three young people eating a piece of barbecue that they didn’t know where to get. They couldn’t stop themselves from gulping because it smelled so good.

“Where did they get the meat? Why does it smell so good? ” A man asked, his gaze fixed on the barbecue they were enjoying.

“It seems that the meat was previously roasted and is being reheated.” Another person asked, staring at his own barbecue. “Why doesn’t our barbecue smell that appetizing? Did they add some seasoning? ”

“Your barbecue smells so appetizing. Can you share it with me?”

The three people eating the barbecue were taken aback by the sudden sound. When they looked up, Guo Xinning stood in front of them, staring at their roasted meat.
