A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

Ningyan frowned slightly, thought for a moment, but ultimately shook her head.

“I have no experience with affairs in the Zhao state, so I don’t know much about Guo Xiu.”

Hearing this answer, Bai Yuan was not very disappointed.

The group waited in the room for a while before Yunxi slowly arrived with Xue Nu.

Upon entering the room and seeing Bai Yuan, Xue Nu was slightly taken aback.

"It's you!"

She remembered clearly that when she performed on stage for the first time a while ago, this was the person who led the applause after the performance.

While everyone else was still engrossed in their dance, he had already come to his senses.

Therefore, Yuki-onna still had a deep impression of Hakugen.

Yunxi was somewhat surprised to hear the Snow Maiden's exclamation.

"Snow Woman, do you two know each other?"

"No, no...we don't know each other." Upon hearing this question, the Snow Woman immediately waved her hand and shook her head repeatedly in denial.

"Whether we knew each other before or not, we will definitely know each other in the future."

Bai Yuan chuckled, easing the tension on the field.

"Mr. Bai Yuan, I have already spoken with Xue Nu. She will be in charge of teaching the young ladies Zhao Wu during this period. So, I entrust Xue Nu's safety to you all during this time!"

"nature."

Bai Yuan nodded with a smile.

They didn't stay there long. Xue Nu packed a few changes of clothes and left Fei Xue Pavilion with Bai Yuan and the others.

During this period, she even had to eat and sleep with them.

On the way, Xue Nu was still a little uneasy because Bai Yuan was ultimately a stranger to her, even though he was very handsome, had an outstanding temperament, and seemed very gentle and easy to get along with.

However, because of what happened with Guo Xiu and the others, the Snow Woman has become very wary of strangers.

She feared that Bai Yuan might be a hypocrite who appeared to be a gentleman but was actually a beast in human form.

Bai Yuan and the others also sensed the Snow Woman's unease.

Now, without Bai Yuan even having to say a word, Ningyan and the others tacitly understood what to do and took the initiative to talk to Xue Nu to relieve her psychological pressure.

Bai Yuan, however, has not yet participated.

After all, the Snow Woman's inner unease stemmed from him.

Back in the courtyard, Ningyan and the others led Xue Nu to choose a room for themselves.

It has to be said that Kuang Xiu's courtyard is really big. Even with the addition of Xue Nu, there are still several rooms empty.

Sometimes Bai Yuan couldn't understand why Kuang Xiu, a musician, would live in such a big house.

But now it's all benefited Bai Yuan.

Chapter 181 This meal truly went straight to my stomach.

After returning with Bai Yuan and the others, Ning Yan was still somewhat dazed until she helped Xue Nu choose her room.

Although the environment here is not as luxurious as my room in Feixue Pavilion, it has a simple and elegant atmosphere that Feixue Pavilion does not have.

This aura brought a sense of peace to the somewhat bewildered Snow Maiden's heart.

There is no hustle and bustle of the city here; it feels as if you have escaped the world.

Sitting in the room, the Snow Woman took out a jade flute from her bundle, gently stroking it, a trace of sadness in her eyes.

That was a resentment towards fate.

She thought that under Sister Yun's tutelage, she could become the best dancer in Zhao, become famous throughout the world, and thus gain the opportunity to control her own destiny.

However, as soon as she began to show her talent, she attracted the covetous eyes of many aristocratic playboys.

The harsh reality always makes people grow up faster.

After witnessing the ugly faces of Guo Xiu and others, Xue Nu also realized that simply being able to dance meant that in front of truly powerful and wealthy people, she was nothing more than a dancer entertaining others, far from being able to control her own destiny.

Although many dancers changed their fate by becoming favored concubines of powerful men.

However, most of these dancers need to deliberately cater to the powerful and wealthy, and everything must be done according to their preferences.

Not only that, but one also needs a certain amount of cunning, plus good luck, to be able to get on the good side of powerful people and become a dancer.

And these are things that the Snow Woman clearly does not possess.

She is naturally aloof and incapable of flattery or deliberately pandering to guests.

Moreover, she was different from ordinary dancers.

Within Feixue Pavilion, perhaps other sisters might be thinking of doing anything to curry favor with a powerful and wealthy man, so as to escape their identity as dancers.

But she was different; she only sold her art, not her body.

With a soft sigh, the Snow Maiden sat there in a daze for who knows how long.

At that moment, her nose twitched slightly as she smelled an incredibly alluring fragrance.

"Goo~"

The Snow Woman clearly heard her stomach protesting, and her face flushed slightly.

Only then did she remember that she hadn't eaten anything all day because of Guo Xiu's matter.

At that time, she even thought about starving herself and then dying.

But now, even though no one was around, she still felt a little embarrassed.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Snow Maiden, dinner is ready! Come out and eat with us!"

Just then, the sound of condensing smoke came from outside.

"Okay! I'm coming right away!"

Xue Nu responded, then quickly put the jade flute away. When she opened the door, she saw Ning Yan waiting for her with a smile.

"Let's go. I'll be waiting for you."

Ningyan led Xue Nu into the courtyard. When they arrived, Xue Nu discovered that Bai Yuan and the others had already gathered around a table, waiting for Xue Nu to come and start the meal.

She sat down somewhat awkwardly.

"We don't have many rules here. Just help yourself to whatever you want to eat."

Bai Yuan smiled and said to Xue Nu.

The snow woman nodded gently.

She was just a dancer in a brothel, so naturally she wouldn't pay much attention to etiquette.

At that moment, her gaze was drawn to the dishes on the table.

However, because she was not familiar with Bai Yuan and the others, Xue Nu was still somewhat reserved.

At first, I only picked up some of the food in front of me.

But she quickly relaxed and became completely absorbed in the food, almost forgetting the presence of Bai Yuan and the others.

From the moment she took her first bite of Bai Yuan's cooking, she couldn't stop eating.

The joy these foods brought her even made her feel like she could forget all her troubles.

It wasn't until she couldn't eat anymore and put down her chopsticks that the Snow Woman realized what had just happened.

She seemed to be eating a little too intently!

Bai Yuan and the others looked at her with smiles.

Feeling a little hot under her gaze, Yuki-onna couldn't help but feel embarrassed about her behavior.

However, Bai Yuan and the others did not make fun of Xue Nu.

Because they themselves had just fallen into the same state as the Snow Woman.

All of this is because of the new dish that Bai Yuan just cooked.

【Name】: One-Step Stomach-Friendly White Rice (Green)

[Entry]: Simple and unpretentious (green), Goes straight to the stomach (purple)

【Simple and unpretentious】: High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods, and this fragrant white rice can be cooked simply by adding water. It looks simple and unpretentious, but it is actually rich in nutrients and even has a sweet taste.

[One Step to the Stomach]: As the saying goes, if you want to win someone's heart, you must first win their stomach. This white rice can accomplish both steps at the same time, winning over the other person's heart while also making them immersed in the delicious food until they are full.

Bai Yuan had cooked white rice many times, but this was the first time he had ever cooked such special white rice.

The results were indeed quite remarkable.

Even he was just captivated, completely absorbed in the delicious food he made, as if he were possessed.

However, this peculiar feeling isn't bad either; after all, good food should be enjoyed wholeheartedly.

Although none of them said a word during the meal, Bai Yuan and the others had indeed grown much closer to Xue Nu.

The group chatted under the moonlight.

When the Snow Woman learned that the meal was prepared by Bai Yuan, she immediately showed great surprise.

"I never expected Mr. Bai Yuan to have such culinary skills, it's truly astonishing!"

"This is just the tip of the iceberg; he hasn't shown his full strength today."

Ningyan and the others smiled.

Upon hearing this, Xue Nu became even more curious. It turned out that today's meal was not even Bai Yuan's full strength!

"You'll be staying here for a while now, and there will be plenty of surprises coming your way, so be prepared!"

Bai Yuan smiled mysteriously.

It's just a meal; compared to other things, it's nothing.
