BXBX NOVEL Chapter 309 - Satisfying Zhu Wenqian
As she tried to open her mouth to speak, she suddenly began coughing up a mouthful of blood.
Some of the blood was even splatter onto Yang Wei\'s clothes since she was still embraced by him.
"Cough cough." Zhu Wenqian coughed a few more times before showing a bitter smile.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei hurriedly tried to inject some of his spiritual qi to heal her up.
"Are you really alright?" Yang Wei asked with a worried look on his face..
"Yeah, I\'m definitely alright despite coughing a mouthful of blood just now." Zhu Wenqian sneered in a sarcastic manner.
Yang Wei laughed awkwardly as he apologized once again for causing her to be in this state.
"Stop apologizing and cook me that whatever chicken you\'ve said!" Zhu Wenqian said as she pushed him away.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"Rest assured, I won\'t hold anything back this time." Yang Wei said with a mysterious smile on his face.
Zhu Wenqian raised an eyebrow. \'What is he up to now?\'
Sometime later, Yang Wei walked to a corner and made sure to conceal his ingredients from Zhu Wenqian.
\'Since Zhu Wenqian risked herself to save me, then I should reward her.\' Yang Wei thought.
In his hand, Yang Wei was holding the Dragon Soul Grass. Despite wanting to use this as an ingredient for a pill, he decided to use this in the beggar chicken.
"Hmm, what other medicinal herb should I add in this beggar chicken?" Yang Wei asked himself.
He wanted to create a dish that is tasty yet beneficial and healthy for Zhu Wenqian.
After all, she had been injured and it was all thanks to him for being careless.
Yang Wei spent the next few minutes pondering which medicinal herbs to use before beginning the cooking process.
As he began wrapping the chicken in his usual lotus leaves, Yang Wei made sure to add something else to it.
\'Alright, that should be good enough to satisfy Zhu Wenqian.\' Yang Wei thought.
Suddenly, Zhu Wenqian cried aloud, scaring the crap out of Yang Wei for her sudden outcry.
"What happened to Zhu Wenqian?" Yang Wei stopped his process and hurried to her side.
Zhu Wenqian held a dumbfounded expression as she stared at Yang Wei.
"Are you trying to repay me or make me eat dirt?" Zhu Wenqian asked.
Yang Wei raised an eyebrow.
"Obviously I\'m trying to repay my gratitude to you for saving me." Yang Wei said.
"Then why are you using dirt to cover up the chicken?"
Yang Wei smiled bitterly when she had the same reaction as Elder Jing.
"Trust me, Zhu Wenqian, this is the method for cooking the beggar chicken." Yang Wei said as he proceeded to spend the next few minutes explaining to Zhu Wenqian.
Although Zhu Wenqian was still doubtful of his words since she had never seen anyone using dirt to cook a meal, she decided to trust him for once.
"You better not try to play tricks on me. Otherwise, even heaven would not forgive you for biting the hands of your Savior." Zhu Wenqian said as she warned him kindly of the consequences for trolling her.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"Don\'t worry, I\'m not the ungrateful type nor would I ever become one." Yang Wei said in a solemn tone.
Betraying someone who had helped him genuinely was something Yang Wei would never do.
Zhu Wenqian no longer kept Yang Wei from cooking as she told him off.
"Alright, this queen needs to rest and slowly recover so tap on my shoulder when you\'re done." Zhu Wenqian said.
"Then rest well for now." Yang Wei then retrieved a blanket to cover her.
Zhu Wenqian nodded her head as she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Yang Wei showed a gentle smile as he stayed for a while until he was sure she would stop coughing up blood.
Afterward, he walked back to the dirt-covered lotus leaves and began slow cooking the beggar chicken with alchemy flame.
Time slowly passed by before the cliff became filled with a rich and fragrant aroma.
"Is it done?" Zhu Wenqian rubbed her eyes and spoke in a weak tone.
"Yup, it\'s done but stay put and don\'t move around." Yang Wei said as he carried the dirt-covered lotus leaves toward her.
White smoke was oozing out from the dirt-covered lotus leaves and Zhu Wenqian couldn\'t help but start drooling in her mouth.
She swallowed some of her saliva nervously as she could smell from the aroma alone that the beggar chicken would be flavorful.
However, her expression changed when she sniffed out something extremely familiar to her.
"D-D-Did you place some Dragon Soul Grass in the beggar chicken?" Zhu Wenqian stuttered as she glanced at Yang Wei.
Yang Wei smiled as he cracked the dirt open and showed her the juicy and flavorful chicken that was covered in Dragon Soul Grass.
"Well, consider this my gratitude for saving my life." Yang Wei said.
Zhu Wenqian felt her heart beating rapidly for some reason when she saw the gentle expression of Yang Wei.
Her face blushed slightly as she lowered her head.
"Y-You didn\'t need to use all of the Dragon Soul Grass…" Zhu Wenqian mumbled softly.
Yang Wei shook his head.
"It\'s just a Dragon Soul Grass and it\'s not like I wouldn\'t be able to find it anymore considering how vast this world is." Yang Wei said as he took out a small dagger and began cutting the chicken into bite-size pieces for Zhu Wenqian.
"Here, make sure to taste it carefully since I wish to stay alive and not get killed by you." Yang Wei teased.
"Tch, don\'t act too arrogant." Zhu Wenqian clicked her tongue and snorted coldly.
Yang Wei laughed silently when Zhu Wenqian\'s words and actions were polar opposite.
As soon as she had received the chicken pieces from him, Zhu Wenqian had turned into a foodie that kept her mouth stuffed.
\'Thank you, Zhu Wenqian.\' Yang Wei said silently as he watched her eat without any etiquette or demeanor of a queen.
