They were in charge of being beautiful, and she was in charge of taking the hits.

Chapter 299 I’m guilty

Wu Ziyan listened to him and placed both hands on his neck, which looked somewhat ambiguous.

She breathed on his neck and said, "Stupid, how am I supposed to stay warm when you don't even hold me?"

"Oh."

His hands were placed awkwardly on her waist, but they were just placed there without any force or embrace.

"Do you understand what 'close-fitting' means? It's drafty with so much space between us, it's not warm at all."

"Oh, is this okay?" He pulled her closer to him, and the two of them were pressed together without any gap.

"Okay, but can't you pick me up?"

"Your Highness, the injury on your shoulder has not yet healed."

"What did you call me?"

"Your Highness..."

His mouth was gagged, and his eyes held a defiant look.

The kiss seemed to be punishment for him forgetting that she had told him not to call her "Your Highness" in public.

His mind went blank for a moment, and he only felt that his lips were cold and dry.

It looks like it's because I didn't drink much water all day.

Wu Ziyan also sensed it and licked her lips.

She accidentally touched his lips, and Chu Qiu bit her, hurting her quite a bit.

Chu Qiu let out an "Ah!" and seemed to find the sound amusing.

A rare smile appeared in her eyes; it turned out that what she did earlier would cause her pain.

"Your Highness, I am guilty!"

Wu Ziyan kissed her again, but this time she had learned her lesson and stopped licking her lips.

She just wanted him to remember that she felt like she was training a puppy.

"You'll know what to call me next time, right?" Wu Ziyan released him with a smile, and Chu Qiu's face turned bright red.

But he couldn't refuse; in his mind, all he had to do was utter those two words.

Just like when an owner feeds a puppy, it will receive a reward.

He understood, and this time he finally used force on his own initiative.

Her waist felt very slender, and one hand could easily reach around to the other side.

Such a slender waist, even men would envy it, yet it belongs to a woman.

It felt like if I tightened my grip with both hands, I could snap her waist.

Wu Ziyan did indeed feel that it was a bit too tight, and she had to take a long breath before slowly exhaling.

"Ziyan, are you having trouble breathing?"

"kind of."

He loosened his grip slightly, feeling that the strength of his embrace was just right.

You could feel the warmth emanating from her clothes. The people in the distance were busy and didn't even look in their direction.

How did you feel just now?

"I bit you hard."

She was speechless at the answer; she had thought it should at least be a little more romantic.

But what he said was indeed the truth. There was even a hint of cunning in his eyes. How come the roles have been reversed now?

"Then you can't call me Your Highness outside anymore. Every time you call me that, I'll kiss you, understand?"

"Your Highness, I understand."

Wu Ziyan is a man of his word.

His Highness had barely uttered the words when his lips were already covered by hers.

But this time he did it on purpose, with one arm around her waist and the other hand around the back of her head.

He didn't give her a chance to loosen her grip at all, because he glanced over and saw that Changsun and Fang Yuerong seemed to be looking this way.

From a distance, all that could be seen were two figures embracing each other.

I couldn't see exactly what they were doing, but I lost all interest in catching fish. The two of them were embracing and entwined, but what could they possibly be doing?

After gathering firewood, Yue'er secretly watched their entire scene from behind the tree.

He was secretly marveling at Chu Qiu's hidden talents and the little tricks he had up his sleeve!

Wu Ziyan felt quite enjoying it, even though it was just their lips touching and she didn't show any other reaction.

There was no mutual encroachment, and it took Chu Qiu a while to release her, a triumphant smile on his lips.

Wu Ziyan saw through it but didn't say anything. How could she not notice the two people glancing at her?

However, since someone like Chu Qiu could say such things, we should still give him some face.

"Alright, let's catch some fish. Maybe they've already caught some."

"I'm much better than them."

They even got a little proud, but they have the right to be proud.

He drew his sword from his waist and plunged it swiftly and ruthlessly into the water.

It was inserted directly into the fish's gills without damaging the fish's body.

Wu Ziyan's eyes lit up instantly, and she clapped her hands and exclaimed, "Chu Qiu, you're amazing!"

"Is he better than all of them?"

"Master, what are you looking at? Why are you so happy? Oh, it turns out Brother Chu Qiu caught a fish."

"That's really impressive; none of the ones we've caught have been as big as this one."

Wu Ziyan gave him a grateful look. She really didn't know how to answer Chu Qiu's question just now.

Now that someone has come to the rescue, she readily agrees: "Yes, he's very capable."

Changsun Boyu held a fish in his hand, recalling how he had caught fish with Wu Ziyan when they were controlling the floods, and how he had also been scheming.

"Thinking back to the last time we caught fish, the young lady and I both got our clothes soaked."

Wu Ziyan sighed, realizing that this was a subtle competition between them. Only Fang Yuerong could offer her a way out.

"Yuerong, you've been in business for many years, you must be traveling a lot."

"You've seen and eaten plenty of this fish, it's much better than ours. You'll come with me to cook the fish in a bit."

This explanation is somewhat far-fetched. He does travel frequently and eat a lot of fish, but it's always been prepared by others.

At this moment, Yue'er appeared out of nowhere: "Young master, Yue'er knows how, I will definitely teach you and young lady properly."

Great! A divine assist from Yue'er!

Yue'er gave Fang Yuerong a reassuring look, but he shook his head helplessly. Wu Ziyan quickly followed him.

As he left, he turned around and took a fish from each of Chu Qiu and Changsun Boyou.

"You brothers can chat all you want, Yue Rong and I are going to go fish now."

Carrying the two fish, he dashed off towards the campfire, with Fang Yuerong chasing after him.

He kept telling her to slow down and not to trip over the dead branches on the ground because it was dark.

As if she hadn't heard, she took three steps in two and went to a pile of empty campfires.

Those people were quite perceptive and could tell the relationship between them.

They voluntarily gave up a campfire for them.

"Moon, come quick! I don't know how to gut this fish."

Yue'er ran faster than Fang Yuerong, squatted down next to the fire, and quickly took the two fish.

He seemed to know everything, and he was very bold, unlike most men who were pretentious.

This reminded her of Mo Baiyun. Could it be that Yue'er also had some hidden identity? Thinking of this, she asked.

"Moon, could you tell me secretly that you're a very skilled assassin?"

After asking that question, he looked at the fish in Yue'er's hand and saw that he had cleaned the scales off with a few strokes of his dagger.

His swordsmanship was swift, accurate, and ruthless, and then he wore an innocent expression.

"What assassin? I've killed everything, except people."

"I am just a man from an ordinary family. I learned the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting from you later, young master."

“I used to be able to slaughter chickens and ducks, do accounting, and sell vegetables at home. I could do everything.”
