Chapter 34 Packet Capture
Xin Yuan found the meal tasteless and could only manage a few bites before giving up.

Zhu Yan basically ate all the fish, meat, and rice on the table by himself.

Even after dinner was over, Xin Yuan still felt hungry.

He had no time to care about these things; what he cared about more was why Wen Li was ignoring him.

This was the first time Xin Yuan had been treated so inexplicably, leaving him confused and bewildered.

Several times he tried to talk to Wen Li, but she ignored him completely.

"What are you thinking about?"

Zhu Yan waved her hand in front of him.

Since dinner, Xin Yuan has been spacing out, seemingly lost in thought.

Zhu Yan couldn't bear to watch any longer.

"It's nothing." Xin Yuan shook his head and lay down on his bed.

Zhu Yan comforted her, "Wen Li shouldn't be angry with you, otherwise she wouldn't have made you eat."

“Really?” Xin Yuan blinked. “But she still won’t talk to me.”

"Isn't that normal? She doesn't talk to me either," Zhu Yan said casually, fiddling with the small wooden bottle in her hand.

“Brother Ke, your relationship with Wen Li wasn’t good to begin with, and you rarely spoke to each other,” Xin Yuan said earnestly.

Zhu Yan's forehead twitched. "Xin Yuan, what do you mean?"

Although what he said was true, it sounded strangely unpleasant.

Zhu Yan is very unhappy right now.

Xin Yuan turned his head away.

The cave was quiet for a while.

Xin Yuan smelled a rich fragrance and followed the scent, finding it coming from Zhu Yan.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Xin Yuan asked curiously.

Ever since Zhu Yan returned from Bai Yanci's place, she has been tinkering with something.

Xin Yuan glanced at it briefly but couldn't figure out what was going on, and Zhu Yan didn't say anything either.

"Get something," Zhu Yan said vaguely.

Xin Yuan pressed further, "Is it a gift? It smells so good."

Zhu Yan replied perfunctorily, "I suppose so."

He carefully poured the mixed pale purple liquid into a small wooden bottle, and then slowly closed the lid.

The aroma was thus blocked.

The fragrance in the cave gradually faded, but Xin Yuan's attention remained drawn to it, and he couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to give it to the female?"

Most males are not interested in this fragrant stuff; only females will like it.

Xin Yuan guessed that the recipient of Zhu Yan's gift was probably a female.

"No, it's nobody. I just did it for fun." Zhu Yan suddenly raised her voice.

Xin Yuan found his strong reaction somewhat strange.

"Really? When did you start liking such fragrant things?" Xin Yuan was still skeptical.

He's not stupid.
Zhu Yan glanced at him with slight annoyance and extinguished the candles in the cave.

"Shut up and go to sleep! We have to hunt tomorrow."

"Oh."

The cave was plunged into darkness.

There are few entertainment activities on the Beast World continent. After dinner, most beastmen either sleep or make babies.

In this broken family, the former is the only option.

Wen Li lay listlessly on her bed, unable to fall asleep no matter what she did.

She tried to clear her mind and fall asleep, but the image of Xin Yuan giving things to An Yuan today kept flashing through her mind.

Tianguo!

That's a house!

Wen Li became increasingly depressed as she thought about it.

Since the two are still considered husband and wife, the fruit could be considered their joint property, so Xin Yuan simply gave it to An Yuan.

hateful!

Wen Li couldn't fall asleep the more she thought about it.

Just then, a sound came from the direction of the curtain.

"Tap." A very faint sound, as if something hit the curtain.

Wen Li was somewhat puzzled.

A short while later, another "click" was heard.

"It's raining?"

Wen Li muttered to herself.

She assumed the noise was from rain hitting the curtains and ignored it.

After a short while, the "click" sound disappeared.

Outside the cave, Xin Yuan was throwing small stones toward Wen Li's cave.

He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Originally intending to go out for some fresh air, I unknowingly arrived at Wen Li's doorstep.

Through the thin curtain, he could see the dim light inside and hear Wen Li's occasional sighs and the sounds of her turning over.

She is not asleep either.

So Xin Yuan had the idea of ​​sending something as a gift.

He placed the basket at the entrance of Wen Li's cave.

Knowing that Wen Li didn't want to see him, he tried to get her attention by throwing stones.

As soon as she comes out, she will see what he left at the cave entrance.

Xin Yuan found a secluded spot and hid there, then took out a small pebble from his palm.

Just as they were about to continue throwing stones, they saw a figure approaching Wen Li's cave.

Xin Yuan paused, squinting to examine the object closely.

The person who came was none other than Zhu Yan.

What... Brother Zhu Yan is here too?
Xin Yuan watched as Zhu Yan strode to the entrance of Wen Li's cave and stared at his basket for a long time.

Then he moved his basket aside, took something out, and placed it in the very center.

Xin Yuan couldn't sit still any longer and rushed over, "Brother, what are you doing!"

To avoid disturbing Wen Li, Xin Yuan tried to lower his voice, but the astonishment in his tone was still audible.

Zhu Yan looked slightly embarrassed after being caught secretly moving someone else's things.

"Cough... What's wrong?"

"How dare you move my things!" Xin Yuan said angrily.

He also noticed that what Zhu Yan put down was the wooden bottle he had been fiddling with for half a day.

It was a wooden bottle filled with a very fragrant liquid.

It turns out this was meant for Wen Li.

However, Xin Yuan did not expect Zhu Yan to be so wicked, secretly using tricks to move his basket!
When Wen Li comes out, the first thing she'll see will definitely be Zhu Yan's wooden bottle.

"Moving it a little won't cause any problems."

Xin Yuan put his basket back down, and then placed Zhu Yan's wooden bottle on the other side.

"That's not OK!"

Inside the cave, Wen Li vaguely heard someone speaking at the entrance and called out, "Who's out there?"

The two were startled and dodged to the side.

Silence returned outside, and Wen Li wondered if she was overthinking things.

Zhu Yan and Xin Yuan hid behind a tree.

Making sure Wen Li wouldn't hear them, Xin Yuan looked at Zhu Yan and asked, "Brother, why did you suddenly think of giving Wen Li something?"

A hint of unease flashed across Zhu Yan's face as she looked up at the sky. "You've already given me a gift, so why can't I?"

Xin Yuan shook his head and said, "That's not what I meant. It's just... haven't you always disliked Wen Li?"

"I'm just doing this to express my gratitude." Zhu Yan snorted lightly. "Since you've already given me a gift, it would seem like I'm stingy if I didn't."

I may dislike you, but I still have to be generous when it's time to be.

"Oh."

Xin Yuan didn't ask any more questions, but instead looked towards Wen Li's cave.

I originally thought Wen Li would come out of the cave directly, but I didn't expect her to have no reaction.

Xin Yuan couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.

Immediately afterwards, the faint light in the cave disappeared.
