Mr. Xu frowned. He was very anxious. He looked in the direction of the kitchen and finally nodded.

“Miss Liu, I believe you. Zhang Tianyou is born weak. Xue has seen him a few times, but she didn’t say that she liked him. It’s impossible for her to suddenly fall in love with him. However, how can we remove this love poison?”

Mr. Xu was deeply worried.

Liu Sanniang looked at Mr. Xu and replied. “Find the person who cast the poison and remove it.”

Liu Sanniang only knew that Xu Xue was poisoned, but she did not know how to remove the poison.

Mr. Xu looked at Liu Sanniang as if he was looking at his last hope. He said anxiously, “Miss, please help me. I only have one daughter. It’s fine if she really likes Zhang Tianyou, but clearly she fell in love with him because she was poisoned. How painful is it to live her life with someone whom she doesn’t love?”

Mr. Xu did not want Xu Xue to lead such a life. He raised his daughter and hoped that she would have a good future.

Liu Sanniang said, “Let’s tell her what happened later.”

Seeing that Liu Sanniang did not refuse, Mr. Xu was very grateful. “Thank you for your help.”

Mr. Xu then told Liu Sanniang about Xu Xue and Chen Wen.

Xu Xue grew up by the sea and was an excellent cook. Soon, she made a seafood feast. Xu Xue pointed at the crabs and said, “Miss Liu, you caught a lot, so I made two flavors. One is steamed and retains the freshness. The other is braised and very fragrant. It’s also delicious. Try it.”

Xu Xue took off her apron and washed her hands.

She looked at Chu Yan and was a little afraid of him. She did not speak to Chu Yan and only placed the bowls and chopsticks in front of him. She smiled at Liu Sanniang and said, “Miss Liu, take your time to eat. My father and I will be outside. Call me if you need anything.”

After saying that, Xu Xue prepared to leave. She had also found a lot of things on the beach today because of Liu Sanniang.

Liu Sanniang smiled. She was also afraid when Chu Yan wasn’t smiling.

It was unknown if it was because there were outsiders around, but she was not that nervous. Liu Sanniang looked at Mr. Xu and said, “Eat with us. I’ve never eaten these before, so I don’t know how to eat them.”

Xu Xue was stunned for a moment. Liu Sanniang was not from a coastal city, so it was normal for her not to have tried these things before. She really couldn’t refuse.

Mr. Xu smiled gently. “Xue, go and get a few crabs to entertain Miss Liu. Miss Liu is a rare guest.”

Xu Xue looked at her father and said, “Okay, Father.”

Living by the sea, the food they ate was from the sea. Naturally, it wasn’t something found in the mainland. Moreover, these things were expensive and would die if they left the water.

The transportation cost was huge, and it was extremely expensive. Xu Xue happily went to get the pickled crab. The pickled crab was very delicious.

Xu Xue skillfully broke down the crab into parts and placed them on a plate.

No one picked up their chopsticks. They were all waiting for Xu Xue.

After Xu Xue sat down, she quickly said, “Miss Liu, eat it quickly. This is braised. It has to be eaten right away. This one is steamed. Dip it with this. It’s mixed with vinegar, ginger, garlic, and soy sauce.”

Xu Xue picked up a piece of crab for Liu Sanniang. The crab was plump and had a lot of meat. Xu Xue sighed again at how lucky Liu Sanniang was. Sometimes, the crab was very big and not fat, but all the crabs that Liu Sanniang caught were fat.

If one or two were fat, she was lucky, but they were all plump. What kind of luck was this?

Xu Xue peeled off the shell and gave the meat to Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, try it.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Thank you.”

After dinner, Mr. Xu was about to tell Xu Xue that she had been poisoned when there was a knock on the door. Xu Xue stood up to open the door.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

A cough came from outside. Mr. Xu couldn’t help but frown. He looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “Zhang Tianyou is here.”

Zhang Tianyou came in with two fish. His face was pale and his body was very thin. He covered his mouth with his hand and coughed. He looked at Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan. “Xue, who are they?”

Xu Xue smiled. “Tianyou, they’re guests.”

“Oh.”

Zhang Tianyou frowned and seemed a little unhappy. He looked at Xu Xue.

Xu Xue smiled sweetly. “Tianyou, you’re not in good health. Don’t walk around. Miss Liu and Mr. Chu are here to see the sea. Moreover, I saw them yesterday when I was selling fish on the street. Don’t you think it’s a coincidence?”

Zhang Tianyou looked at Xu Xue and smiled. “Are you that fated? Then, you must treat them to a big meal.”

Xu Xue stuck out her tongue. “Of course.”

Zhang Tianyou covered his mouth and seemed to be about to cough. Xu Xue immediately went up to support him. “Tianyou, sit down. Are you feeling unwell again?”

Mr. Xu looked at his daughter, who seemed to have become a different person in front of Zhang Tianyou. He remembered that Liu Sanniang said that his daughter was poisoned by love poison, so he looked at Zhang Tianyou with a strange gaze.

Mr. Xu said, “Tianyou, if you’re not feeling well, go back to rest.”

Zhang Tianyou looked at Xu Xue and smiled gently. “Uncle, I’m fine. I know my own body. I haven’t married Xue yet. I’ll take care of my body and grow old with Xue.”

Mr. Xu frowned deeply.

However, Xu Xue didn’t seem to be unhappy at all. She looked at Zhang Tianyou like he was the only one in this room and smiled shyly. “Tianyou, there are still guests here.”

Zhang Tianyou laughed. Perhaps because he was too excited, he started coughing non-stop again.

Mr. Xu was shocked and worried. “Tianyou, you’re not well. You should go home. If you catch a cold outside, your grandma will be really worried about you. Go back quickly.”

Mr. Xu didn’t like Zhang Tianyou at all. He just wanted Zhang Tianyou to stay away from his daughter.

Mr. Xu’s unwelcoming attitude seemed to have provoked Zhang Tianyou. He waved his hand and said, “I’m fine, I’m fine. Uncle, don’t worry, I’ll get better. Cough, cough, cough…”
