Chapter 33 What happened last time was my recklessness.
Seeing that the other person was staring intently at her, the girl quickly hid behind Phil to block his view.

In Jiang Nuo's eyes, that man was too unpredictable. She never knew when he would grab her like a madman, trying to hurt or bully her, just like the previous times.

“Xuan Yan, I’m warning you.”

Phil's face was serious, and his words were like an ultimatum: "This morning, I took it upon myself to start a fight with you because I didn't like you. Xiao Nuo had no idea about it. If you come to her because of this, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yan's lips curled slightly. He glanced at the girl who was dodging like a little rabbit, then looked away after a moment, his voice teasing: "Who said I came here to see her?"

He walked straight into the kitchen, pulled out a chair at random, and sat down: "Or rather, if you can come to my place, why can't I come here?"

"you--"

Phil was furious. He had finally managed to spend some time alone with Xiao Nuo in the last day or two before she left, but then this spoilsport showed up!
"Let me see what you two are thinking about, it's almost time to eat." After saying that, Xuan Yan looked at the pot and smelled the aroma of potatoes mixed with milk: "Hmm, it smells pretty good."

"Go back to your Beast God Temple!"

If the girl hadn't been behind him, Phil would have punched her right then and there.

What? The temple can't afford to eat?

Did he run into his legion's kitchen?
Just as Phil was busy chasing away the other males, he noticed the girl behind him poking him with her finger, which made him pause and turn around: "Xiao Nuo?"

Jiang Nuo frowned, somewhat worried, and asked, "Phil, did you go to fight him this morning?"

The thing she had worried about still happened.

Upon receiving the girl's questioning gaze, Phil suddenly realized that he might have let something slip.

Not far away, a fox sitting in a chair seemed to be staring nonchalantly at the potatoes bubbling in the pot, but in reality, it had already pricked up its ears and was glancing at the two of them from time to time.

"Yes, I went..."

"Then are you injured?"

Before Phil could finish speaking, Jiang Nuo interrupted him, gently stroking his body: "If it hurts, just tell the truth. Don't be like last time, when your hand was bleeding but you wouldn't let me see it."

The girl's words of concern were undisguised, warming Phil's heart. However, Xuan Yan, who was not far away, had a flickering gaze, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

"Don't worry, Xiao Nuo, I'm perfectly fine. Look, I'm completely unharmed." Phil said, twirling around in front of the girl before turning to a certain male with a mocking look: "However, some people didn't fare so well. Maybe he got hurt."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Yan glanced at the girl again. For some reason, a strange expectation rose in his heart: If... it were him who was injured, how would she react?
But the final result disappointed him.

The girl clenched her small fist and lightly punched Phil's chest: "Oh, as long as you're alright, I'm relieved."

"..."

Xuan Yan, who was standing by the pot, frowned involuntarily. At this moment, he felt a little uncomfortable.

That's it... that's the end of it?
"hiss……"

Just then, Xuan Yan suddenly realized that he had been lost in thought and his hand had been pressed against the pot, which had directly burned his hand and caused it to turn red and blistered.

Seeing this, Phil gloated: "Serves you right for coming so close to me!"

Jiang Nuo raised her eyebrows and walked straight toward Xuan Yan.

Upon seeing the approaching figure, Xuan Yan's eyes once again showed a hint of expectation, but he was quickly disappointed for the second time.

The girl silently walked over, turned off the switch, and carried the pot back home.

It seemed like all they could see was that pot.

Yes, Jiang Nuo was worried. She was afraid that Xuan Yan, sitting next to the pot, might secretly put something in it when she and Phil weren't looking.

"You haven't used what I gave you yet?" The man's voice suddenly rang out behind her.

The girl stopped in her tracks, but didn't turn around. Her voice was gentle and polite: "Your gift is too precious, Lord. If I were to use it casually, wouldn't that be disrespectful to you? Rest assured, I will keep it safe and treasure it, and I will definitely use it when I need it most and when it is most appropriate."

"..."

Hearing this, Xuan Yan didn't know whether to be angry or amused. This little thing... it's quite remarkable that it can say such hypocritical things so convincingly.

"I was reckless last time."

Suddenly, Xuan Yan stood up and looked at the girl's departing figure, saying, "The thing I gave you is called Beast God's Divine Liquid. It is a naturally formed substance, bestowed by the Beast God. All elements added later will be ineffective, so... you can use it with peace of mind. It will be good for your body."

Jiang Nuo stood there stunned, because she hadn't expected Xuan Yan to say such a thing to her.

This man just had a fight with Phil this morning, and now he's in the base's kitchen at noon. Could it be that he's not here to cause trouble, but... to apologize to her?

Jiang Nuo was somewhat incredulous.

All that the other party had said was simply to tell me that the Beast God's Holy Liquid was genuinely intended for my use, without any adulteration.

Thinking of this, Jiang Nuo couldn't help but purse her lips and muttered softly, "Is that so? Then you've been reckless more than once, Palace Master."

Xuan Yan's pupils flickered slightly as he listened, as if something had gently tapped his heart.

Jiang Nuo carried the pot back, while Phil glared at Xuan Yan before coming over to meet the girl. However, Jiang Nuo's mind was in turmoil, and perhaps because she didn't hold the handle properly, her hand slipped after taking another step!
This startled her, causing her to lose her balance and fall backward.

"what--?!"

This scene terrified Phil.

"Xiao Nuo!"

Phil rushed forward immediately, completely ignoring the pot that was about to fall to the ground, and tried to catch the girl's delicate body. But no matter how fast he rushed, he was still a step too late. Xuan Yan, who was behind the girl, strode forward and took advantage of the situation.

Left with no other choice, Phil had to take the blame.

after all……

What's cooking in that pot...

It was also Xiao Nuo who worked hard to make it.

"Please let me go." Jiang Nuo couldn't help but shudder at the sight of the crimson figure before her, because in her memory, every time she had close physical contact with Xuan Yan, nothing good ever came of it.

Each time, she was covered in wounds.

As if sensing the girl's resistance, Xuan Yan withdrew his hand immediately after stabilizing her body, without making any inappropriate moves.

Just as Xuan Yan was about to sit back down, he suddenly glanced at the girl's wrist!

His expression changed drastically, and his eyes turned sinister.

That is……

Smart bracelet?!
She's contacted the outside world?!

Hey everyone, I'm begging for your votes! Thanks!
