A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times-Chapter 111: What is He Really like

Hua Wuyou's gaze fell on her hand. Her wound seemed to be bleeding again.

He got up and picked her up directly.

"What are you doing?" Xia Miaomiao struggled twice.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in your dirty look right now!" Hua Wuyou carried her and walked out through the grass.

"There's a river over there. I'll carry you over to wash your face!" Hua Wuyou added.

Hearing what he said, Xia Miaomiao stopped struggling. She secretly glanced at Hua Wuyou.

The clear and smooth jawline was perfect. The slightly curly hair resting on his forehead, the tall bridge of his nose, the fair skin, those deep blue eyes seemed to bewitch people's hearts.

With his mixed-race appearance, it was no wonder he became the most popular idol in the entertainment agency. He looked even more handsome with short hair than long hair.

She was in her senior year this year. She heard that the entertainment agency would come to the dance school to recruit new idol trainees.

Between them, was it really just a coincidence that they looked alike?

Seeming to sense Xia Miaomiao's fiery gaze, Hua Wuyou glanced down at her and smirked, "What? Do you think being my eleventh wife wouldn't be a bad deal?"

"......"

Xia Miaomiao withdrew her gaze and pursed her lips without answering.

Although he was very handsome, it wasn't as if she hadn't seen handsome guys before.

There were also many handsome guys at her school, okay?

Xia Miaomiao silently ridiculed him in her heart. Ten wives, could he even handle that?

Carrying her, Hua Wuyou came to the riverside. At this time, the sun was shining brightly on the shimmering river surface.

Hua Wuyou put her down and let her sit on a rock by the river. "Your wrist is bleeding again and needs to be cleaned. Do you want to wash it yourself or should I help you?"

Xia Miaomiao looked at the wound on her hand and said softly, "I'll wash it myself, don't trouble yourself."

"Alright, wash it yourself then!" Hua Wuyou stood up, "Remember to wash your little flower face too!"

After speaking, Hua Wuyou strode to the other side.

Watching his departing back, Xia Miaomiao couldn't help but be stunned.

This Hua Wuyou seemed very frivolous, but also...very gentlemanly.

What kind of person was he really...

She didn't know why, but she didn't dislike him at all. Her sixth sense told her he wasn't a bad person.

Coming back to her senses, Xia Miaomiao withdrew her gaze. Bending over to look at herself in the water, she realized her face was really dirty and her hair was a mess.

"Ah, I'm so ugly now! No wonder Hua Wuyou said he wasn't interested in me..." Xia Miaomiao muttered to herself.

She unwrapped the bandage on her hand and simply washed the wound, then washed her face.

The hairpins in her hair had been pulled out yesterday, leaving her hair a bit messy. She undid her hair bun and tied her hair simply in a bun using the rubber band on her wrist.

After tidying up, Xia Miaomiao turned and glanced not far away. To her surprise, Hua Wuyou had started a fire in the shade and was even grilling fish!

The glaring sun made Xia Miaomiao's eyes hurt. She shielded her forehead from the light, wanting to get up and go to the shade. But without a stick, it was too difficult for her to walk.

She looked towards Hua Wuyou and called out loudly, "Hua Wuyou!"

Hua Wuyou heard Xia Miaomiao's voice and glanced at her, but he didn't move. He was leisurely grilling the fish.

Seeing him not move, Xia Miaomiao thought he didn't hear her. She called out again, "Hua Wuyou! I'm done washing!"

Hua Wuyou smirked, still not moving.

"Hua the hero!" Xia Miaomiao called out again. She was getting dizzy from hunger and heat now.

Clutching her stomach, she bent over slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Hua Wuyou immediately put down the fish and ran over.

"What's wrong?"

Xia Miaomiao frowned, looking wronged. "You're bullying me! You pretended not to hear me on purpose!"

"......"

Hua Wuyou guiltily scratched his nose. "Didn't you...want to run away yourself? Why did you call for me then?"

"Then why did you save me? You took away my walking stick, how can I walk?!" Xia Miaomiao said with red-rimmed eyes, "You just wanted to see me embarrass myself..."

"......"

Looking at her simple yet unique hairstyle, Hua Wuyou felt she seemed even more cute than before.

He sighed and bent down to pick her up.

Xia Miaomiao readily put her arms around his neck.

Hua Wuyou carried her to the shade and set her down.

He took a large leaf from the side with crushed herbs on it.

"Put out your foot." Hua Wuyou said.

Xia Miaomiao glanced at the herbs and obediently stretched out her foot.

"It's herbs to reduce swelling."

Hua Wuyou explained and took off her shoe, carefully applying the herbs to Xia Miaomiao's ankle.

A cooling sensation spread from her ankle. Xia Miaomiao stared at him carefully applying medicine, lost in thought.

"Are you...so attentive to your ten wives too?" Xia Miaomiao couldn't help asking.

Hearing her words, Hua Wuyou was stunned for a moment.

Then he smiled again, looking nonchalant. "Of course, my wives, I'll naturally treat them well!"

Xia Miaomiao lowered her eyes. Her heart seemed to be blocked as she retracted her foot. "I'll do it myself..."

Hua Wuyou glanced at her but didn't insist. He got up and went to the river to wash his hands.

But when he came back, he realized the fish he had been grilling was burnt.

Hua Wuyou immediately picked up the fish from the grill. Looking at the blackened fish, he couldn't help frowning.

Disgusted, he threw the fish on the ground and looked at Xia Miaomiao. "There's fruit next to us, it's been washed. Eat some first while I catch another fish."

"Oh, okay." Xia Miaomiao replied. Then she saw Hua Wuyou go to catch fish on the other side.

Xia Miaomiao took a fruit and ate some to fill her stomach first.

Looking at the blazing sun, she felt it must be close to noon.

After a while, she saw Hua Wuyou caught a fish. It looked like a grass carp.

She saw Hua Wuyou removing the fish scales with a dagger and said, "It's best to cut open the back when grilling."

Hua Wuyou paused and looked at her. "The fish's back?"

"Yes, cut open the back and spread the fish open. It's easier to grill that way. Is there any salt? It'd be good to marinate it first if so." Xia Miaomiao said seriously.

Hua Wuyou looked at her suspiciously. "You know how to grill fish?"

"A little..."

"Salt first?" He had always sprinkled salt after grilling things before.

"Yes, make a few cuts on the fish's back, rub some salt inside and out, marinate for a while, it'll taste better."

Following Xia Miaomiao's instructions, Hua Wuyou processed the fish and took out a small bag of salt. But because it had gotten wet yesterday, the salt had solidified.

But it dissolved when meeting water, so he didn't care much.

"Why do you carry salt with you?" Xia Miaomiao asked curiously.

"I often stay outdoors, so I'll grill some things to eat in the wild."

Xia Miaomiao looked at the fish. With only salt and no other seasoning, would it taste good?

After marinating for a while, Xia Miaomiao told him to skewer the fish over the fire.

"Charcoal fire is good enough, don't let the flames rise or it'll burn easily." Xia Miaomiao said.

Hua Wuyou looked at her and smirked. "Little bunny, if this fish doesn't taste good later, I'll just eat you instead."

"......"

Xia Miaomiao really wanted to say, with only salt, of course it wouldn't taste good!

But she didn't argue and watched Hua Wuyou grill the fish attentively, instructing him from time to time.

After a while, Xia Miaomiao suddenly recalled something and asked, "Hua Wuyou, what is your relationship with Qin Shi?"

Hua Wuyou casually flipped the fish. "Who has a relationship with that beast? He impersonated my name Hua Wuyou to harm women. I came to Lan City to settle accounts with him!"

"But aren't you also a flower thief?" Xia Miaomiao probed.

Hua Wuyou laughed. "I, Hua Wuyou, am a flower thief, but I don't kill people. And...those girls willingly let me 'pick' them. I would never force anyone!"

"You make it sound so noble..." Xia Miaomiao muttered under her breath.

"What did you say?"

"N-no... I'm not willing to be your eleventh concubine. You can't force me," Xia Miaomiao seized the chance to say.

Hua Wuyou paid no mind to her words, "Then how will you repay me for saving you?"

Xia Miaomiao thought for a moment, "Take me back to Lan City and I'll give you money."

"Tsk tsk, but it seems I have no lack of money," Hua Wuyou tutted.

Xia Miaomiao retorted in annoyance, "But you already have ten wives. What do you need so many women for? Can you satisfy them all?"

Hua Wuyou looked at her, a hint of amusement in his eyes, "Are you doubting my abilities as a man?"

Xia Miaomiao bit her lip and didn't respond.

Seeing her reaction, Hua Wuyou couldn't help but chuckle softly. He checked on the fish and found them cooked through. Carrying the fish over to Xia Miaomiao, he asked, "Want to try some?"

For some reason, Xia Miaomiao was in a terrible mood. She glanced at Hua Wuyou and said stubbornly, "I don't want to eat."

No sooner had the words left her mouth than her stomach let out a loud gurgle.

Xia Miaomiao awkwardly covered her tummy.

Hua Wuyou suddenly grinned and used a dagger to cut her a piece of fish with no bones, "Really not eating?"

Xia Miaomiao pursed her lips. Oh well, she couldn't defy her stomach!

She accepted the fish and ate it.

While not exactly delicious, it wasn't too bad either. At least it filled her stomach.

"How is it?" Hua Wuyou asked.

"Passable," Xia Miaomiao replied curtly.

Hua Wuyou found a large cleaned leaf and filleted most of the fish onto it before handing it to Xia Miaomiao.

"Here, for you."

Xia Miaomiao was taken aback, "You're...not eating?"

Hua Wuyou casually responded, "I still have this."

Xia Miaomiao looked at his fish and realized he had given her all the boneless parts from the belly.

She lowered her eyes and finally accepted the leaf, "Thank you..."

Hua Wuyou found her reaction a bit odd. He raised a brow but said nothing more, sitting down to eat his share of the fish.

"It's better than what I cooked before... Looks like you're quite skilled," Hua Wuyou commented.

He called this good eating? Then he must not have tasted truly delicious grilled fish before.

After the fish and some wild fruits, their stomachs were relatively full.

Hua Wuyou walked over and bent down to look at her, "Little bunny, have you decided how you'll repay me?"

"I..." Xia Miaomiao stammered under his gaze, "Other than becoming your eleventh concubine..."

"Oh? How about becoming my first wife instead?" Hua Wuyou teased with an arched brow.

Xia Miaomiao stared at him in shock, "What do you mean?"

"I mean... I'll make you the first wife and the rest will be concubines!"

"You...!" His shamelessness angered Xia Miaomiao. "Don't even think about it!"

But Hua Wuyou didn't get angry. On the contrary, he just laughed, "Then... what if I insist on taking you away now?"

"..." Xia Miaomiao glared at him silently.

Hua Wuyou held out a hand to her, "Come, I'll carry you on my back."

Xia Miaomiao didn't move.

"Don't worry, I won't force you if you're unwilling. I'll take you back to Lan City," Hua Wuyou added.

Xia Miaomiao's eyes lit up, "Really?"

"If you don't get on soon, I may change my mind!"

Xia Miaomiao immediately grabbed his hand and climbed onto his back.

Hua Wuyou chuckled softly as he hoisted her up.

Xia Miaomiao wrapped her arms around his neck and clung to his back, her face inexplicably turning red.

"Thank you, Hua Wuyou..." Her soft voice tickled Hua Wuyou's ear, the warm breath spreading across his neck like feathers, itching his heart.

His footsteps faltered as his eyes darkened.
