Han Feng looked at the girl by his side. Three years had gone by, and Xingxing had grown taller, recently putting on a bit of weight, which made her look even cuter.
The boy from earlier clearly had bad intentions, and Han Feng could see it at a glance; those words he said were even less trustworthy.
"Xingxing, is that your friend?"
Han Feng, who had been silent up till now, couldn’t hold back any longer.
He didn’t want Xingxing to be deceived. That person was obviously tricking Xingxing, and she was still so young.
Seeing Han Feng’s somewhat cautious demeanor, Bai Zhi couldn’t help but laugh.
"Brother Han Feng, you can just ask directly. We’re close, aren’t we? I’m not that familiar with them. That Ouyang is a friend of Nan Xi’s. Today I just happened to save them; they encountered a wild boar..."
After hearing this, Han Feng heaved a sigh of relief. Xingxing’s words made it sound like she had no interest in that Ouyang, and that was good.
"They wanted the Air Freshener Pills and some Hemostatic Powder from me, and I agreed. There’s truth in the saying ’prolonged illness makes the patient a doctor.’ I just toyed around with those medicine powders and somehow made it work, though really it was just for personal use.
That Heart Cleansing Pill is actually mostly mint, plus some flour and stuff; it’s almost like candy. I like to eat it," Bai Zhi said and then playfully smiled at Han Feng. Han Feng believed her; at that time, Xingxing had said that since life was so tough, you must enjoy what you eat. So she often experimented with making tasty food.
"Can you give me some too? How much are you charging them? Don’t get taken advantage of, okay?"
Han Feng was worried about Xingxing being sweet-talked. She was always so kind-hearted.
"For the Heart Cleansing Pill, my brother said it’s 40 per bottle, but I haven’t thought about the medicine powder. It was made casually, and I can’t guarantee if it’s effective or not," said Bai Zhi, her voice tinged with a touch of helplessness and hesitation.
"Maybe, I just won’t give them the medicine powder. What if it doesn’t work, wouldn’t that be deceiving people?"
Of course, it was effective, but Bai Zhi couldn’t just claim it was because she wasn’t a doctor. She felt it was fine, which didn’t necessarily mean others would agree.
Bai Zhi thought, unknowingly, she had become cautious like the Ancestor said, to choose to trust the world but not to trust fully. One should carry goodwill but not without vigilance.
Han Feng, the companion from her childhood, had been away for a few years. Should she trust him completely?
Bai Zhi didn’t know, but she was willing to trust...
Willing to believe that in those years, the most sincere pair of people, their hearts warming each other, they truly trusted each other wholeheartedly.
"If they want it, just give it to them; just make sure things are clear and collect the money. Do you need me to come with you? You shouldn’t trust outsiders too much."
Han Feng felt a warmth in his heart as he looked at the hesitant girl in front of him, asking his opinion.
"I know. I never trusted Ouyang. Brother Han Feng, you don’t know, back when I saved them..."
Bai Zhi complained, pouting, her expression one of annoyance, which made Han Feng’s eyes soften even more.
"That would really make them ingrates. Don’t bother with them. Crazy."
Han Feng’s gaze darkened. Someone actually wanted to take advantage of Xingxing.
"Xingxing, I might have to go to the capital to celebrate the New Year tomorrow. My grandfather asked me to go over, and I was thinking we could ring in the new year together and catch wild chickens. When I come back, shall I bring you some roast duck?"
It wasn’t without regret. He had once promised to take her to catch wild chickens and rabbits and to set off fireworks together.
"Xingxing, I’ve said that when I can earn money, I’ll buy you a lot of tasty things. Do you remember what you told me then?"
Back then, they were truly happy.
