"Miss Zhu, you mustn't!" Seeing Zhu Xiaohong rise, Mo Wen quickly stood up as well, but he was still a step too late. He could only help Zhu Xiaohong back to her seat. "Miss Zhu, why go to such lengths? I made a promise to your father long ago. Handing this item to you is merely fulfilling that promise."
"Is your surname He?" Compared to the agreement between her father and the young man before her, she was more curious about his identity. This man had not mentioned his name at all, but from his repeated references to his agreement with her father, Zhu Xiaohong couldn't help but furrow her brow, recalling her father's words.
"Oh? Miss Zhu has finally remembered me." With the conversation reaching this point, there was no point in hiding any longer; doing so would only lead to further misunderstandings. It was better to lay everything on the table and avoid being on guard against each other.
"You..." Hearing her guess confirmed, Zhu Xiaohong was stunned. This man looked impossibly young. Although age wasn't heavily emphasized in this world, it still mattered at times. In terms of cultivation, age was a crucial measure. To have reached a realm comparable to hers at such a young age was astonishing. No wonder her father had said she hadn't trained hard enough; what was more remarkable was that this person had survived the Lava Storm. Coming back to her senses from her shock, she thought someone like him must be brought before her father. "This box, Young Master He, please take it back. Since it is an agreement between you and my father, it should be fulfilled by you."
"I never expected that Young Master He not only possesses great strength but can also prepare such delicious dishes." Looking at the bubbling broth and the table full of dishes, Zhu Xiaohong's eyes widened. The beast meat was one thing, but where did Young Master He get those fresh herbs? Moreover, there were no fire attribute herbs among them; it seemed that Young Master He harbored great secrets.
"It’s just satisfying a craving. Come on, don’t be shy." As he spoke, he demonstrated how to eat hot pot for Zhu Xiaohong. She had definitely never eaten hot pot before. It was also Mo Wen's first time enjoying such good conditions in the Lava Sea after so long. The fresh herbs were gathered by Xiao Hei while Zhu Xiaohong was bathing; that little guy knew the area well and could get things done quickly as long as there was food involved. To avoid any conflict with Zhu Xiaohong's law, he even had Xiao Hei bring out a sealed beast leg from inside.
"Alright then, I won't hold back." Zhu Xiaohong could hardly contain herself; she just didn’t know how to eat it yet; otherwise, she wouldn't have needed Mo Wen's encouragement.
"Xiao Hei, you eat too." Xiao Hei’s short legs couldn’t use chopsticks; when he used to eat with his master, he would simply dive in with his paws. However, today his master had instructed him not to reveal himself, so he could only rely on Mo Wen to serve him. Fortunately, Mo Wen hadn’t forgotten about him.
"This..." Zhu Xiaohong watched as Mo Wen fed his pet and couldn’t help but feel puzzled; in her eyes, Xiao Hei still seemed like Young Master He’s pet.
"Oh, this guy is easy to feed; whatever I eat, he eats too." Seeing the confusion on Zhu Xiaohong's face, Mo Wen quickly explained.
Watching Zhu Xiaohong eat with grease all over her mouth reminded him somewhat of Zi Lan; it seemed that these daughters from wealthy families were all quite precious and rarely engaged with the mundane world. With Mo Wen's explanation, Xiao Hei was also incredibly happy; now he didn’t need Mo Wen to serve him food since Zhu Xiaohong piled his plate high with delicious dishes.
