Chapter 1031
Hence, upon Sheng Yize’s suggestion, they bought a chicken from Uncle Wang, who was even kind enough to kill it for them .
None of them had enjoyed their makeshift meals earlier, and everyone’s eyes lit up desperately at the thought of a roast chicken . They promptly went off to fetch firewood and start a fire . Before long, the chicken was being roasted .
The production team didn’t know whether to laugh or cry . That wasn’t what they had in mind…
When the chicken was almost ready, Sheng Yize sprinkled some hotpot seasoning on it . Someone else went to borrow some salt from Uncle Wang . Soon, the aromatic chicken dripping with grease was ready .
The chicken was immediately carved up by the ten people and Sheng Yize was quick enough to grab a chicken thigh for his wife .
An Xiaxia ate happily . “It’s so delicious!”
Sheng Yize smiled as he enjoyed doting on his little woman .
He Jiayu and Su Xiaomo were discussing a much more “profound” subject .
“There’s no garbage bin on the mountain . What are we going to do with the chicken bones?” He Jiayu frowned . “Shall we bag them and take them away with us?”
Littering would be bad for the environment .
Su Xiaomo grinned . “Don’t worry . I know exactly where to leave them!”
With a swift flick of her wrist, she threw the bones in her hand into the chicken coop!
The chicken inside cackled and clucked loudly .
The corner of He Jiayu’s mouth twitched . “… Why did you do that?”
Su Xiaomo looked rather regretful . “Wait, chickens don’t eat chicken bones?”
The production team: How gory! That’s cannibalism… Oh, no! All of a sudden, they felt so sorry for the chickens…
Once their stomachs were filled, Xiaojiu smiled and announced, “Now we’ll move on to the last segment: campfire party!”
Night seemed to arrive early in the mountains, and before long, it was dark outside .
The group gathered at the house of the village head, where a campfire had been lit . Local young women danced and the unsophisticated country folk hummed some folk song . Everyone then joined in, singing, dancing, drinking, and eating . It was a most boisterous scene .
Leaning on Sheng Yize shoulder, An Xiaxia said, “I think it isn’t a bad idea to live here…”
Life was slow and stress-free; one could spend all their time loving one person .
Sheng Yize chuckled . “Forget it . You’d miss wifi and air-conditioning after two days . ”
“You’re right…” An Xiaxia agreed with him . She then spotted a young villager, who was playing some tuneless song on a guitar .
“I recall that you can play the guitar . ” Sheng Yize turned his gaze on her . The reflection from the fire and stars flickered in his black pupils; it was a sight splendid beyond description .
An Xiaxia said, “Well, I can play a little, but not very well . ”
“It’s ok . Can you play that song?” Sheng Yize said the name of a song .
An Xiaxia nodded . “I can . ”
Sheng Yize smiled, got to his feet, and went to talk to the villager, who handed him the guitar without hesitation .
Xiaojiu jeered, “Senior Sheng, are you going to perform for us?”
Everyone chimed in . “Play! Play!”
Sheng Yize smiled, which reminded one of a beautiful portrait . “Actually, my wife is going to play the guitar . ”
The crowd looked a little disappointed . He then added unhurriedly, “I’ll sing . ”
“Wow —” There was a round of applause as everyone looked forward to it .
An Xiaxia tried the tune, looking a little shy . Maybe it was because of the heat from the fire, but she blushed slightly .
The soothing, wonderful prelude rang out and everyone quieted down .
Sheng Yize cleared his throat, then began to sing in his deep, mesmerizing voice .
It was a classic love song, called “At Least I Have You . ”
An Xiaxia’s cheeks turned pinker .
