"When did this person..."

Jiang Ye and Zheng Feng looked at each other, a flash of hidden shock in their eyes.

They hadn't noticed at all when this woman had appeared.

Logically speaking, even if they couldn't perceive it.

With Zheng Hui's sense of smell, which was sharper than a dog's, she should have been able to smell the other person's scent in advance...

There was no doubt.

This was a martial artist of unfathomable strength.

The true qi in Jiang Ye and Zheng Feng's bodies surged simultaneously, like an undercurrent rushing through their meridians, ready to erupt at any moment.

Even Zheng Hui, who was usually cute and naive, was stunned, staring blankly at this mysterious woman who had suddenly appeared.

She instinctively twitched her nose, but she couldn't smell a trace of scent from the other person.

She immediately shrank behind Zheng Feng and Jiang Ye, a trace of panic in her dark, round eyes.

Seeing the few of them looking like they were facing a great enemy, the mysterious woman in the purple dress smiled faintly with an apologetic look, a smile that was like a spring breeze blowing across a lake, rippling out in layers:

"You don't need to be nervous; I just happened to pass by, smelled the fish fragrance, and came over to take a look."

Her voice was crisp, her tone noble, and it carried a hint of poise.

Jiang Ye was old and experienced, and Zheng Feng was well-traveled.

Just by hearing this voice, both of them realized that the mysterious woman in front of them was definitely someone of high status.

There was no arrogance in that voice, but there was a majesty that made one want to bow their head involuntarily.

Zheng Feng took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, cupped his hands, and said respectfully: "I don't know how to address you, Senior..."

The woman in the purple dress pondered for a moment and smiled faintly: "You may address me as Qin."

Zheng Feng forced a smile and said: "Senior Qin, if you are interested in the grilled fish, you can..."

Before he could finish his sentence.

The woman in the purple dress named Qin smiled lightly: "May I eat it? Thank you very much."

As she spoke, she stretched out a fair and slender finger, the fingertip like jade, glowing with a faint luster in the twilight.

She flicked it gently, and a wisp of clear breeze was born out of thin air, lifting the golden grilled stream fish by the campfire and sending it steadily into her hand.

Immediately after, she opened her cherry lips and began to eat the fish gracefully.

Even though she ate the fish slowly, bite by bite, chewing carefully, her speed was exceptionally fast.

Before long, a grilled fish was eaten clean by her, leaving only a complete fish bone, and even the fish head was gnawed without a trace left.

She pursed her moist red lips, which were glistening with a trace of oil, and a look of wanting more appeared on that beautiful oval face, her eyes full of aftertaste.

Zheng Feng coughed lightly and said with fake politeness: "If Senior Qin is not satisfied, I can grill some more for you."

Hearing this, the woman in the purple dress showed a look of joy: "That would really be a bother for this little brother; I have indeed not eaten grilled fish for some time, and I am truly a bit greedy."

The corners of Zheng Feng's eyes twitched twice.

He was just being polite.

The other party actually took it seriously.

However, since the words were already spoken, he could only bite the bullet and go to the stream to catch a few more stream fish and come back to grill them.

As for Jiang Ye, he was closely watching this mysterious woman in purple throughout, his brows locked tightly.

He wanted to activate his Fire Eyes to see the other party's depth, but he was afraid that the other party would discover it and cause trouble instead.

After all, some people are naturally sensitive.

For example, Yang Han, who was absorbing moonlight on the eaves, could feel him spying on her with Fire Eyes.

And this mysterious woman in the purple dress in front of him definitely had strength above Yang Han's.

While waiting for Zheng Feng to grill the fish, this woman in the purple dress actually took a book out of her sleeve and began to read it with great interest.

Her gaze fell on the pages, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and she occasionally let out a few light laughs, as if she were completely immersed in the world of the book.

Zheng Hui, who was on the side, saw the book taken out by the woman in the purple dress, and her eyes lit up, her cute little face full of surprise:

"Eh! Is it 'Rouge Snow'?"

Hearing this, the woman in the purple dress looked up slightly, a flash of laughter in her eyes, and said softly:

"How about it, little girl, do you read this too?"

Her tone carried a bit of surprise.

Jiang Ye was slightly startled.

He seemed to have seen Chen Chen Lili read it; this should be a romance novel, right?

It was quite popular with girls.

It was not strange that Zheng Hui liked to read it.

No.

This woman was clearly a martial artist with unfathomable strength.

She actually read this kind of thing...

Zheng Hui seemed to have found a kindred spirit and hurriedly ran up, no longer afraid of the inexplicable poise on the woman in the purple dress.

She leaned over to the woman in the purple dress and peeked at the pages, chattering away:

"I've read it too! I like the scholar in it the most; although he is poor, he has a lot of backbone!"

Her eyes were full of light, as if she had forgotten that the person in front of her was a senior with unfathomable strength.

The two of them actually started chatting vividly, leaving Jiang Ye and Zheng Feng, who were on the side, stunned.

A moment later.

The woman in the purple dress rested her chin on one hand and sighed softly: "If only my love could be as romantic as in the book."

Zheng Hui laughed and said: "Sister Qin, you are so beautiful, there must be many people chasing you."

The woman in the purple dress was slightly startled, then shook her head and said:

"No..."

"Since I was a child, it seems that everyone is very afraid of me..."

"Sigh, clearly I also really want to taste what sweet love is..."
