Chapter 1906: The Scary And Ugly Woman (2)
Shen Nianmo continued to be occupied with the cooking. The pair of skewer that he grilled looked almost identical, like twins.
When he offered the meat to Gu Xijiu, she took a look at the one in his other hand and asked for it, "I want yours, the one in your other hand." The little boy was utterly annoyed; did she think that he might poison her?
Shen Nianmo did not argue with her. He gave her his skewer. The little boy had a decent table manner. Although he was famished, he did not eat voraciously or in a terrible hurry. He ate quickly, but politely. He did not behave like an uncultured child. When he grows up, he would definitely charm all the ladies with his manners.
While Gu Xijiu was enjoying her meat, she could not help but sigh. How could a grown-up like her steal food from a young boy like him? She was convinced that she actually had zero boundaries.
The boy continued to grill more meat as she lay on the tree. Every time, he would offer a skewer to Gu Xijiu as promised. Sometimes, Gu Xijiu would ask for the one in his other hand. Other times, she would just accept the one that he offered.
The boy had a good temperament. He would offer her whichever skewer she asked for. Frankly speaking, the food that he grilled did not taste very good. For a gourmet like Gu Xijiu, the food was considered bad, but she did not say anything to stagger his confidence. She finished all the food for the sake of his persisting effort.
After satisfying her hunger, she was stung by her conscience and offered, "I have taken a large portion of your food. In return, I should offer you some help. Is there anything that I can help you with?"
Shen Nianmo cleaned his robes and stood proudly. "There is no need for that."
Impressed by his determination, Gu Xijiu continued, "Maybe I can help you to find the way to decipher the wizardry barrier?"
