Seeing that Parker enjoyed it so much, Bai Qingqing picked up a prawn with her chopsticks and deliberately ate it without dipping it in the sauce.

Ooh… this is indeed very tasty. There was a mild sweetness to it. Perhaps it was because the water was unpolluted, for she had never tasted such fresh sea produce in the modern ages.

However, in terms of taste, this was a little lacking in flavor for a girl accustomed to heavy flavors.

Bai Qingqing picked up another prawn and dipped it in salt. This time, she was more satisfied with the taste. If there was soy sauce around, it would be better.

“If you like it, eat more,” Bai Qingqing happily said. She glanced into the bedroom. “Too bad Cortis is still sleeping. He might like this dish.”

Parker initially couldn’t bear to eat it. But upon hearing Bai Qingqing’s tone which suggested she was thinking of keeping it for the snake, he no longer stood on ceremony. “You eat first. After you’ve eaten your fill, leave the rest to me.”

Bai Qingqing smiled. During this time they were chatting, the aroma of rice was now wafting through the air. Bai Qingqing retrieved the bamboo rice and added several prawns and one fish onto her rice, then said to Parker, “That’s enough for me.”

Parker glanced at Bai Qingqing’s food, then moved half of the remaining fishes and prawns onto Bai Qingqing’s plate, before crouching at the door with his stone bowl and relishing in the food.

Bai Qingqing didn’t reject his gesture and merely shifted the excess food to one side. After she had eaten her fill, the remaining fishes and prawns entered Parker’s stomach.

…

Amidst the wind and rain, a tall and straight male walked to the door of the stone house.

“Qingqing, are you in?”

Bai Qingqing was sitting in Parker’s nest and weaving a bamboo basket. Upon hearing someone calling for her, she immediately walked out. Just as she got to the bedroom door, she suddenly recalled that she hadn’t dotted her face, so she halted in her footsteps.

The delighted Hugh could already see half of Bai Qingqing’s body. As he didn’t hear the sound of males in the house, he guessed they weren’t around, so he walked in.
