Chapter 128 - Parkers Favorite Food (2/2)

Parker rubbed his fingers, seemingly not bothered at all. He then reached into the stone pot and quickly took out the two dishes.

Bai Qingqing quickly layered tree leaves under and over the lid, lest Parker touch it with his bare hands again.

After Parker was done with his chores, he started wrinkling his nose rapidly, widening his eyes.

“What smell is this?” Parker turned his head towards the food rapidly, staring passionately at the fish and prawns.

“You like it?” Bai Qingqing glanced at the food, then gazed dubiously at him.

Doesn’t smell special or anything. Didn’t I merely steam it? Aren’t his reactions too exaggerated? Parker is simply trying to flatter me, isn’t he!

“Growl—” Parker swallowed his saliva, his stomach growling loudly.

Speechless, Bai Qingqing thought to herself that Parker must really like this dish.

“Here, try it.” Bai Qingqing handed Parker a pair of chopsticks.

Parker responded by grabbing a prawn speedily and stuffing it into his mouth. He swallowed it in one gulp without chewing.

His actions were so swift that it made Bai Qingqing suspect he didn’t actually taste the food at all.

Is this fellow a cat?

“These prawns… need to be dipped in sauce,” Bai Qingqing said after a moment’s hesitation.

Parker was so excited tears had welled up in his eyes as he carefully licked the corners of his mouth, a look of relish on his face. “It’s so yummy!”

He liked to eat fish, to begin with, and he had even secretly eaten it raw before. Although the fish steamboat that Bai Qingqing cooked previously tasted good, the heavy flavors of the seasonings hid the natural sweetness and odor of fish. For those reasons, it had felt somewhat lacking.

However, steamed only with crushed garlic, this dish of steamed fish and prawns perfectly brought out the natural flavors of these ingredients.

This top delicacy was so easy to make. At the thought of how he would frequently get to eat this in the future, Parker got so excited he had an urge to transform into a leopard and roll about on the floor.
