Parker took out a garlic bulb from the stone bowl and was about to simply shove it into the meat. Bai Qingqing then tsked and snatched the garlic from him. “You have to wash it first. Do you have any knives at home? They’re tools to cut things up.”

“Do you mean blades? I have a stone blade and an ivory blade.” Parker got up and walked into the house. He then walked out with two daggers. One was light gray and made of stone, while the other was carved from animal teeth and ivory in color.

The ivory dagger wasn’t suitable for chopping vegetables as it was carved in the shape of a crescent moon. Bai Qingqing then took the stone dagger from Parker and said, “This is fine. I’ll go wash the sea—I mean, the medicinal herb.”

“Your ankle’s injured, so just sit down. I’ll be right back.” Parker got Bai Qingqing to sit on the ground, then picked up the bowl of medicinal herbs and stone dagger and walked towards the river, leaving Bai Qingqing with a tall back view. His tail poked out from between the seams of his skirt and curled up in a pleasing way.

This warmed Bai Qingqing’s heart. The whole mate thing aside, this beastman was so nice to her that she couldn’t find fault with him.

Parker returned in no time. Bai Qingqing minced the garlic, ginger, and other seasonings on a stone and then applied them on some wolf meat that had been previously cut. After that, she sprinkled some salt on the meat and roasted it over the open fire.

Bai Qingqing wasn’t very good at cooking, and she was just trying things out.

Before long, a wonderful smell came from the meat. Parker took a huge whiff of it, then sneezed as the smell was too overpowering.

“Oh my god! What’s this smell?” There was amazement in Parker’s eyes as he sniffed carefully. His mouth couldn’t help but water.

Bai Qingqing knew from the aroma that she had succeeded. Pleased, she raised an eyebrow at Parker and cut a piece of meat with the stone dagger. “Try some.”

Parker took the piece of meat before his brain could react and stopped once he came back to his senses. He immediately thought that he was trying the meat for his female, then calmly placed it in his mouth.

“Mmm!” Parker’s golden eyes suddenly rounded and his vertical pupils dilated. He looked adorable in a dorky way as if he was a kitten who’d just secretly eaten some delicacies.
