Chapter 324 Extra Story – Witnessing True Shamelessness
The time needed for an incense stick to burn passed by in the blink of an eye. Lan Yun indeed came over carrying two big handfuls of skewers. Since they were in the wilderness and they had never seen how modern-day skewers looked, although the skewers he made were somewhat close, it was still different from the modern-day ones.

The wooden sticks were thick, and the meat cubes were also bigger. The shapes were not cut into long shapes as they do in the modern world. Lan Yun’s skewers looked more like tanghulu.

But Yun Muxi was still amazed that he could deliver such great results so quickly. “Lan Yun, if I bring you to where I came from, you could earn quite a lot just by making lu chuan! You’re basically god-speed.”

Lan Yun felt awkward after hearing it. He had put in so much effort to equip himself with all these skills just for him to go there and make lu chuan? This Miss Yun had such a wild imagination.

Hei Ye was very alert and ran into the forest. In the blink of an eye, he returned with a pile of dry wood and started a fire by the bank. Yun Muxi ran over excitedly, took over the skewers from Lan Yun, and started barbecuing.

Seeing this, Duanmu Gongyu frowned slightly and stopped her. “You don’t have to do it, leave it to them. You can just direct them from aside.”

Seeing Duanmu Gongyu’s black face, Yun Muxi did not say anything else. She stood at one side and verbally directed Lan Yun and Hei Ye on how to barbecue. She made them coat the meat with oil, and sprinkle on some salt, cumin, and chili powder mix.

Lan Yun and Hei Ye were having fun while being occupied. Although it was their first time, they got accustomed to it very quickly as they often cooked wild animals they caught in the wilderness.

Not long after, a fragrant aroma spread through the air and everyone’s eyes lit up, especially Duanmu Gongyu’s, Hei Ye’s, and Lan Yun’s. They had never tried this method of eating meat before. In the past, they only sprinkled some salt on their prey. The food was not great, but it was at least edible.

After the skewers were cooked, Yun Muxi took one and could not wait any longer before she took a bite. The tender meat scalded her small tongue and the pain caused her to quickly use her small hand to fan it.

Duanmu Gongyu saw the scene and snorted. Looking at that small, delicate pink flesh, it seemed tastier than the skewered meat. Duanmu Gongyu lowered his head and blew a few times on that tender tongue and then gently sucked on it a few times. Standing beside them, Hei Ye and Lan Yun quickly lowered their heads and turned all of their attention to cooking. The prince was showing off so many times in front of them, did he ever consider their feelings as unattached people? They felt like crying.

Instantly, Yun Muxi’s face turned as red as an apple. She stared at Duanmu Gongyu and howled angrily, “What are you doing! Didn’t I warn you before to not make reckless moves! Yet you still do all this nonsense in front of others…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Hei Ye and Lan Yun quickly denied it. “Miss Yun, we did not see anything. We’re focusing on barbecuing.” If they did not deny it immediately, the prince would eat them alive. “What a joke! Miss Yun, are you trying to kill us? ”

This kind of obvious brushing off caused Yun Muxi’s face to turn redder. She desperately wanted to bury herself in a hole. Duanmu Gongyu snorted proudly and said, “Who’s seen anything? They already said that they’ve seen nothing.” He then lowered his head and took a bite from the skewer she was holding.

When the cooked meat entered his mouth, the aroma of the cumin and the tender meat mixed together. The meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was bursting with juice and a faint tint of wood fragrance lingered in his mouth. Duanmu Gongyu’s eyes lit up. He took her skewer and continued to take one more bite. Seeing her skewer being snatched away, she shouted, “Hey, that’s mine.”

Seeing the situation, Hei Ye was alert to quickly pass her one. “Miss Yun, there’s still a lot here.” Yun Muxi took one and glared at Duanmu Gongyu before eating. Seeing both of them act so childishly, Hei Ye and Lan Yun rested their forehead against their hands helplessly. Was that really their well-respected prince? Was he really not some kid still wearing open pants?

Yun Muxi did not know what kind of wood Hei Ye had brought back. It added a faint wooden fragrance to the meat, thus enhancing its texture and flavor. Yun Muxi dug into the skewers with great satisfaction. After taking two bites, she suddenly remembered something and turned to Hei Ye and Lan Yun, saying, “Don’t just cook, you guys should dig in too!”

Yun Muxi and Duanmu Gongyu sat down somewhere and dug in deliciously. Hei Ye and Lan Yun focused on cooking and passing them the ones that were done. Yun Muxi stopped eating and said, “Aiya, if I continue eating like this I will gain a lot of weight. Will I end up becoming a pig?”

Duanmu Gongyu continued eating while answering her matter-of-factly, “It’s good if you can gain some weight. You’re too thin. It’s more comfortable to hug you when you have more fat.”

Yun Muxi felt extremely awkward. Could this person be any more shameless? She turned and took a peek at Hei Ye and Lan Yun. As if they heard nothing, both of them continued barbecuing.

Yun Muxi counted and realized that she had eaten 10 skewers in no time. These were Lan Yun’s giant skewers, one skewer had a lot of meat, let alone 10 of them.

Yun Muxi was so full as she touched her stomach, laughing, “I’m full, it’s so good! I’m too full, I’m doomed! How many calories was that?”

Duanmu Gongyu frowned and asked in confusion, “Calories? What’s that?”

Yun Muxi explained calmly, “We calculate the heat and energy in our body with calories. Usually, when someone takes in more heat than his body could handle, it would result in the growth of lots of fat and it will make you fatter.”

Duanmu Gongyu nodded and said indifferently, “Ok! Then I should make you eat this a few more times, I like it when you are chubbier.”

Yun Muxi could not be bothered to respond so she glared at him. She then turned and said to Hei Ye and Lan Yun, “Aiya, stop cooking, the two of you. There’s not much left, I’ll take over. You guys come and eat.”

Hei Ye and Lan Yun felt flattered and replied, “Miss Yun, let us do it. How can we let you take over?”

Yun Muxi snickered and said, “It’s fine! I’ve eaten so much so I should find something to do to help digest it. Besides, the greatest fun in barbecuing is to eat while doing it. Let me, let me…”

Hei Ye and Lan Yun did not dare to move and sneaked a peek at Duanmu Gongyu.

Yun Muxi saw that and said proudly, “Don’t worry about him. I said that I’m going to do it. He doesn’t dare stop me.”

While speaking, she snatched the skewers from their hands that they were cooking and passed the ready ones to them and made them eat.

Hei Ye and Lan Yun hesitated for a while, and seeing that Gongyu was focused on his eating and paying no attention to them, they accepted it and started eating.

When they took their first bite, they lost it immediately. Their eyes lit up as they told Yun Muxi, “Miss Yun, your skills are really not bad. This meat is so delicious when we cook it like this.”

Upon hearing that, Yun Muxi could not help feeling complacent. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she voiced out a wild idea. “Hmm, it seems like I have a way to survive here.”

Duanmu Gongyu and the other two did not really understand what she meant. Meanwhile, she was really starting to make her own plans. The big picture in her mind was so beautiful that she could forget other things.

Duanmu Gongyu was finally full and had the energy to take it out on her. He came toward her and took the skewers from her hand. He passed them to Hei Ye, who stood beside him. Duanmu Gongyu lifted her up and raised his brow. “I heard that I don’t dare to control you?”

The sense of threat in his tone was very intense. He was going to establish his power and declare his dominance. Yun Muxi could not help shrinking her neck. But thinking about it again, this Duanmu Gongyu probably did not dare to do anything to her. Hence, she replied cheekily, “What can you do to me?”

After her words ended, Duanmu Gongyu leaned in and kissed her beautiful lips. There was a speck of cumin on her lips and he licked it gently, swallowing the cumin and all the traces of oil on her lips.

Yun Muxi pushed him away with great strength. She wiped her mouth with both hands and shouted, “You’re shameless!”

Dunmu Gongyu snorted and asked sinisterly, “This is called shameless? Would you like to find out what true shamelessness is like?”

Yun Muxi did not know how to deal with the sick-minded Duanmu Gongyu. She got to her feet, stomped them, and ran away after snorting coldly.

Duanmu Gongyu chuckled helplessly. He then ordered in a calm voice, “You guys eat.” Then, he took big strides in her direction.

Yun Muxi was angry at herself and wandered through the maple forest mindlessly. She really did not know what to do with his sudden kisses and teases. She really could not bring herself to be angry with him. She could only be angry at herself. As she walked, she suddenly heard a small sound that seemed like humming.

Yun Muxi’s curiosity rose and she ran to the source of the sound. While running, she looked around curiously.

Suddenly, a ball of white rolled around in the bushes in front of her. Yun Muxi moved forward carefully. When that ball of white was just two meters away from her, it seemed to have sensed someone coming near. It turned around and stared at Yun Muxi anxiously with its small black eyes.

It was a cute puppy. It rolled into a small palm-sized ball in the bushes. Yun Muxi was instantly surprised. As she got closer to it, she said in a gentle voice, “Little Cutie, where did you come from? Why are you here alone?”

The puppy looked at the beautiful girl in front of it and instantly felt drawn to her. But she was still a stranger after all, so it retreated a little cowardly. It even made an “Oww… oww…” sound to warn Yun Muxi not to come closer.

Yun Muxi squatted down, stretched out her hand, and comforted it in a gentle voice. “Little Cutie, don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you. Come here, I’ll take you to eat some meat.”

The little puppy brought its nose forward to take a sniff of Yun Muxi. It did catch the smell of an enticing meat fragrance. It moved a few steps forward gently.

Seeing this, Yun Muxi continued to comfort it in a gentle voice. “Come, Little Cutie, come to me. I won’t hurt you. I’ll give you some meat later, okay? Quick, come! Otherwise, the meat will all be eaten by them.”

The little puppy slowly shook its butt as it walked toward her hand. It sniffed her white and tender hand. Smelling the aroma of the meat, it could not help licking its mouth. It looked up and shook its little tail, staring at Yun Muxi with its black eyes.

Yun Muxi had no immunity for this little cutie. She placed both hands under its armpits and lifted it up. She rubbed her forehead against its furry head. The fury feeling caused her to fall in love with it even more. She placed the puppy gently into her embrace. She kept on caressing it lovingly.

Yun Muxi caressed it gently and turned back. She said gently, “Little Cutie, I’m going to take you to eat some meat. Be good…”
