"Xiao Zhao, don't just eat. Here, have some fish soup," Akatsuki said as she took out a big bowl of fish soup and put it in front of Baihu.
Baihu, who was eating with its head down, stopped eating.
It first looked up at Akatsuki, then looked down at the fish soup in front of it and shook its head.
"It doesn't like it?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan in confusion.
"I forgot to tell you. Xiao Zhao has been a vegetarian for many years. She has already stopped eating meat," Ye Fan said to Akatsuki.
"Sorry, I was rude," Akatsuki immediately nodded and apologized to Xiao Zhao after hearing Ye Fan's words.
Baihu shook its head at Akatsuki again, then lowered its head to eat the pastries.
"It's not your fault that you didn't know," Ye Fan said as he picked up the fish soup in front of Baihu and took a sip.
No matter what, the other party meant well, so he had to give it a try.
Who would have thought that it would have been better if he didn't drink it. After drinking it, Ye Fan frowned slightly.
The taste of the fish soup was almost exactly the same as the one made by his wife, Fujiwara No Chiko.
'Maybe the fish soup made in Japan tastes like this,' Ye Fan thought.
"What's wrong? Is it not good? "Akatsuki asked nervously when she saw Ye Fan frown.
"No," Ye Fan put down the fish soup and said to Akatsuki, "The fish soup is delicious."
"Then why are you frowning?" Akatsuki asked Ye Fan.
"I miss my wife," Ye Fan said honestly, "The fish soup you make tastes about the same as the fish soup she makes."
"Really?" Akatsuki blushed when she heard this.
"It's just that she's always been clumsy when it comes to cooking. She often forgets to scrape the scales when making fish soup," Ye Fan said calmly.
"Did you forget to scrape the scales?" Akatsuki asked.
Ye Fan nodded, and the smile on his face disappeared.
Akatsuki's fish soup made him miss Fujiwara No Chiko even more.
"Are you used to living here?" Akatsuki saw that Ye Fan was reminded of something sad and immediately diverted his attention.
"I'm fine, but Xiao Zhao isn't used to it," Ye Fan said as he stroked Baihu. "The waves on the sea are strong, and the ship is rocking back and forth, making it lose its appetite."
When Baihu heard this, it immediately raised its head and intimately bumped Ye Fan's hand with its head, then lowered its head and continued to eat.
"Don't worry about that," Akatsuki said as she looked at Baihu. "In the future, I'll take care of Xiao Zhao's food. I promise it'll like it."
"This … this is too much trouble for Miss Yue, isn't it?" Ye Fan was slightly hesitant after hearing this.
To be honest, he didn't want to have too much contact with Akatsuki.
But even so, he didn't want Xiao Zhao to suffer with him. Looking for the Nine Cauldrons wasn't something that could be done in a day or two. If this went on, Xiao Zhao would definitely starve to death.
"It's not troublesome at all. Anyway, there's nothing to do on the ship," Akatsuki said as she reached out to touch Baihu.
When Baihu, who was eating, saw Akatsuki reach out to touch it, it immediately raised its head and instinctively took a step back.
Akatsuki's hand immediately stopped in the air. It didn't know whether to extend or withdraw it.
At this moment, Baihu moved.
It timidly walked to Akatsuki's hand and used its head to nudge Akatsuki's palm, then immediately retreated.
After all, he had already eaten their food, so he had to be polite no matter what.
Speaking of which, Akatsuki didn't give it a hateful feeling at this moment.
"It … it can accept me?" Baihu's action made Akatsuki overjoyed.
Women naturally liked small animals. Although Xiao Zhao was now a fox, it was pure white all over. It was unusually agile and furry, very cute. In addition, Akatsuki was moved by Xiao Zhao's heroic act of risking her life to save Ye Fan. Naturally, she liked Xiao Zhao even more.
"Greedy fellow." Ye Fan touched Baihu's head.
"By the way," Ye Fan said without raising his head while touching Baihu, "Tomorrow, you'll go out with me."
"Go out?" Akatsuki looked at Ye Fan, "Where are we going?"
"You'll know tomorrow," Ye Fan said.
"Is this a mission from Mr. Matsumoto?" Akatsuki frowned and asked.
"No." Ye Fan said as he raised his head.
Akatsuki frowned with a puzzled expression.
"I've already reached an agreement with Matsumoto Takeyoshi," Ye Fan said calmly to Akatsuki, "During the time I'm looking for the cauldron for him, I can move freely, provided that I'm with you."
Akatsuki nodded slowly and didn't say anything.
"Rest well tonight. We'll leave early tomorrow morning," Ye Fan continued, "Before you leave, tell Matsumoto Takeyoshi that I won't be going."
"Okay," Akatsuki said as she stood up, "You rest well too. I'll leave first."
"I'll send you off," Ye Fan said as he stood up.
Akatsuki nodded and turned to go downstairs. Ye Fan followed closely behind.
The two of them came to the door one after the other.
"Thank you for the fish soup, Miss Yue," Ye Fan said to Akatsuki after opening the cabin door.
"Bufan -kun, you're too polite," Akatsuki opened the red umbrella in her hand as she turned to Ye Fan and said, "I'll leave first."
Ye Fan nodded.
