1905 The Scary And Ugly Woman (2/2)

”You are going back on your words!” Shen Nianmo clenched his fists in anger.

Gu Xijiu was very delighted to see his face burning with indignation, but she managed to suppress her laughter. ”You are right. I only said that I would offer the firewood in exchange for half of the portion of the meat. I did not say that I would not take the grilled meat from you.” She continued in a demanding tone. ”I challenge you to take it back if you can.”

She was already in very close proximity with the little boy, but the jade did not react at all. Was the last reaction only a coincidence? Did she have to infuriate him even further?

Panting with rage, Shen Nianmo looked at her but remained quiet. His stomach started to grumble. Obviously, the little boy was really hungry.

”You can always grill another one,” she kindly suggested.

”You are not allowed to steal it again!”

Gu Xijiu studied him with her bright, sharp eyes and said, ”You can try to think of a way to stop me from stealing.”

Shen Nianmo pinched his mouth into a thin line and protested. ”I will grill two skewers at a time, one for each of us. If you disagree with the offer, I will not grill anymore, and none of us will get any food.”

The little boy gave a good suggestion. Without any help, he could only cave into her demands. The little boy was promising and worthy of being taught.

Gu Xijiu nodded and agreed immediately, ”Of course!”

Thus, Shen Nianmo continued to grill more food, this round two skewers at a time.
