Chapter 1303 The Night Chapter of the Sisters of Nevernight
In fact, the sisters Huo Ming and Huo Xing are not familiar with each other.
The two have an age difference of nearly eight years, are half-sisters, and have different upbringing paths, so they did not have many opportunities to spend time together as children.
Especially since Huo Ming of Buyetian was sent to the Great Wilderness to take charge of that part of the family affairs before she came of age, she had only seen her youngest sister a few times.
On the contrary, because of official business, Huo Le and Huo Shu of Buye Tian will have many opportunities to contact Huo Ming of Buye Tian.
So, although Buyetian Huoming knew Buyetian Huoxing...it was just acquaintance.
Our understanding of the Nevernight Fire Apricot relies more on rumors.
Therefore, when seeing the Buyetian Fire Apricot appearing outside his window, although Buyetian Huo Ming was very surprised at first, but when he recalled the various rumors about the Buyetian Fire Apricot, Buyetian Huo Ming was not surprised anymore.
She reached out and with one hand lifted the Nevernight Fire Apricot from the narrow platform under her window and brought it into the house.
After all, if Huo Xing fell and got hurt in her own yard, she would probably be blamed by her mother.
At the same time, Buyetian Huoming also recognized it... The bones that Buyetian Huoxing was holding should be the ones left over from his barbecue in the afternoon.
Considering the other party's words about looking for food, Huo Ming looked helplessly at Huo Xing, who was carried in through the window and was still gnawing on bones while sitting on his table.
"If you're hungry, just ask the housekeeper to find you something to eat... Why do you have to come to my yard and pick up leftover bones to eat?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Xing from Buyetian stuffed the bone, which had been cleaned of any remaining meat, cartilage, and even attached fascia, into his mouth, and bit it into pieces with his back molars, chewing as he spoke.
"The food at home isn't as good as this, Sister Huo Ming from Nevernight City... your barbecue is delicious. It has a flavor that you can't find in the inner city of Nevernight City!"
"I smelled the aroma while I was at my place this afternoon and have been wanting to try it ever since."
Huo Xing from Buyetian completely broke and ground the bone into powder with his teeth, then gave a thumbs-up in praise.
Facing Buyetian Huoxing's praise, Buyetian Huoming simply nodded slightly: "Thank you for the compliment... But if you want to eat some, just send the maid or the butler to ask for some, and I will naturally give you some... And it's the hot, meaty part."
"You searched for so long and only found some cold bones... They probably wouldn't taste good."
Buyetian Huoxing swallowed all the bone fragments and shook her finger, "You're wrong, Sister Buyetian Huoming... This kind of wild food must be obtained in the most wild way."
"Asking the housekeeper and maid to beg for something is totally inconsistent with the tone of this meal!"
"I've now used my sense of smell to locate the bone you discarded, and with my superb stealth skills, I've quietly taken it away... This is food I obtained entirely through my own ability. Although the taste may have been compromised, it's of great significance."
Looking at the serious Buyetian Huoxing, Buyetian Huoming nodded: "I see."
Although Buyetian Huoxing expressed that she seemed to understand the other party's explanation, she actually didn't understand what Buyetian Huoxing was saying at all. She just felt that the other party's thought process was indeed different from that of ordinary people and quite strange.
Afterwards, Huo Ming from the Nightless Sky said, "Since you've completed your foraging mission on your own, as a token of encouragement... I'll give you some of the remaining barbecue."
"We didn't actually finish the meat we grilled this afternoon. Most of it was cut off and stored in the cold storage."
As Buye Tianhuo Ming said this, Buye Tianhuo Xing's eyes lit up.
"If that's the case, I can accept it... after all, you are my sister."
Huo Ming stood up and said, "Okay, then you sit here and wait. I'll ask the housekeeper to pack some barbecue and take you back to your yard."
But when Buyetian Huoming heard what Buyetian Huoxing said, she held her back.
"Wait a minute, I'm afraid this won't work!"
"You'd better not let the housekeeper know I'm here... because I'm actually under house arrest! I just sneaked out now!"
Huo Ming of Buyetian stood where he was, looking at Huo Xing of Buyetian who was pulling at the corner of his clothes, a little shocked.
"You're still grounded?"
She had heard about Buyetian Huoxing being under house arrest. After all, she happened to be at home at the time, and the news was not a secret to her. As long as she asked who else was at home, the housekeeper would naturally mention "Miss Buyetian Huoxing who had just been under house arrest by the head of the family."
But precisely because she had heard the news and Buyetian Huo Ming had no specific knowledge of it, she had no idea why Buyetian Huo Xing was under house arrest and for how long.
Seeing the other party appear in his yard, Buyetian Huoming subconsciously thought that the other party's house arrest had ended.
After all… bypassing the guards around his own yard and sneaking into his own yard was already outrageous enough.
If the other party's house arrest has not ended, doesn't it mean that Huo Xing of Buyetian has avoided the servants of Buyetian family and the security personnel patrolling inside along the way?
There was a slight change in the way Buyetian Huoming looked at Buyetian Huoxing.
"You didn't get caught along the way?"
"Of course, I'm very good at sneaking away," Huo Xing said proudly. "In fact, the reason my mother grounded me this time was because I skipped a fraternity and sneaked out to the outer city."
After being reminded by Buyetian Huoxing, Buyetian Huoming also thought of several rumors about his sister.
She seemed to have had experience before of abandoning her family entourage and wandering around the city alone.
However, regarding those rumors, everyone was shocked that Huo Xing from Buyetian "actually did this", but ignored the fact that she "actually could do it".
It seems that... although my sister is mentally ill, she is not a simple character in a sense.
Huo Ming thought about this, pondered for a moment, and said softly, "Then you can sneak back, and I will pretend not to see you... As for the barbecue, I can send a maid to deliver it directly to your yard after you return."
Huo Xing from Buyetian said with a grin, "Really? Sister Huo Ming, you're such a nice person!"
Huo Ming smiled and said, "There are so many anyways, I can't finish them all..."
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Director Arthur and Forbolo had a bigger appetite than he imagined in the afternoon, there would probably be more of the leg meat left.
But when Buyetian Huoming was about to give instructions to the housekeeper again, Buyetian Huoxing stopped her again.
"Wait, Sister Huo Ming... Actually, besides looking for barbecue, I came to your place for other things."
Buyetian Huoming looked at Buyetian Huoxing and asked casually.
"What else do you want?"
Buyetian Huoxing blinked and looked at Buyetian Huoming in front of her: "You are going to the Great Wilderness tomorrow... Can you take me with you?"
