Chapter 12 Eating grilled fish

Although she hadn't eaten the meat yet, she felt a little full after seeing the two people sitting next to each other under the tree.

Tia was distracted as she watched, wondering if the two males in her family would come looking for her after she was caught...

And that traitor!

Her golden eyes flashed with coldness and her fists tightened slightly. She hoped that when she returned, the traitor would still be alive and well. She wanted to get rid of him with her own hands!
The aroma of grilled fish had spread. Tia took a sniff and the hatred in her eyes was immediately replaced by hunger.

Mu Ran was poking the fish with a clean wooden stick, swallowing his saliva and saying, "It feels like it's ready to eat."

Tia's eyes sparkled, "What are we waiting for? Let's eat!"

"Good~"

The two of them didn't mind the heat, and each took one, blowing on it while trying to tear it with their hands. However, as soon as they touched it, they were so burned that they kept blowing their hands.

Tia didn’t know whether the skin of her hands was thicker or she had better heat resistance, but even though it was hot, it didn’t affect her eating. She blew on it and tore off a piece of meat, which was so delicious that it made people salivate.

Mu Ran stared at it eagerly, his saliva almost flowing out, but it was too hot to touch, so he could only hold it up.

Qiu couldn't stand the pitiful look of the female who wanted to eat but couldn't, so he took the fish meat from the branch, wrapped it with vines and waved it quickly in the air. The strong wind dissipated the heat quickly, and he passed it to the other party after it became less hot.

Mu Ran held the still warm grilled fish in his hands and said to the plant beast in admiration: "Qiu, you are so versatile!"

She couldn't imagine how caring and sweet he must have been when he was able to become a human! Qiu was definitely a sweet man!

Hehe, the little female praised him again~
Qiu was so happy that the green vine couldn't help swaying slightly, it was so beautiful.

On the other side, Tia, whose fish was still hot, said: “…”

Of course, Mu Ran would not forget her, and asked her with a smile, "Tia, do you want Qiu to help you too?"

Tia swallowed what was in her mouth, then handed it to Qiu confidently, "Thank you for your help."

It was just a small matter, so Qiu was naturally willing to help, and the same process was repeated again.

In the end, both of them held a fish that was bigger than their faces and ate it with gusto.

Tia still maintained her aristocratic manners and kept her demeanor despite being very hungry.

Although Mu Ran was not a noble, he ate like ordinary people. He placed the grilled fish under leaves, tore off the fish meat with his hands, and ate it in small bites.

This look was so adorable in Qiu's eyes, and he thought that he would catch a few more fish tomorrow to feed the female.

Mu Ran took a few bites of the fish, his eyes slightly brightened and he said, "Although there is no seasoning, it is not completely tasteless. The grilled fish is quite fragrant."

"Well, it is a little bit salty, maybe it's from the fish itself. Anyway, it tastes good." Tia ate the grilled fish and looked at her with gentle eyes full of admiration.

Mu Ran was the first female she had ever seen who could cook.

Receiving the other party's affirmation, Mu Ran's lips curled up. It was good that she was not useless and could only hinder others.

After chatting for a few sentences, no one spoke again and the two of them concentrated on eating.

The fish was not small, and even if Mu Ran was very hungry, he could not eat several kilograms of fish. After trying hard to eat half of it, his stomach was a little full, so he had to stop and plan to find some clean leaves.

Seeing her put down the fish and stand up, Tia asked casually, "What are you going to do?"

Mu Ran replied: "The fish is too big for me to finish, so I plan to wrap up the rest and eat it tomorrow." The weather was neither too cold nor too hot, so the fish would not go bad if left overnight.

Hearing this, Tia asked in surprise: "How much meat is this? Are you full?"

She nodded and hummed, "I really can't finish it. It's too much."

Tia: “…”

He said in a knowing tone, "No wonder you can't run. You've consumed so little food in a short while. This one will only make me about 70% full."

After saying that, he put the last bite of fish into his mouth, but it still wasn't enough.

She subconsciously looked at the half fish that was left. In her heart, she wanted to eat it for her. After all, leaving it overnight would affect the taste, but her self-esteem would not allow it.

How can a nobleman eat other people's leftovers? I would rather die of hunger than eat them!
Even though the fish didn't look like it was leftover, the meat was plump and there was only a fish bone in the middle. One side was eaten clean, while the other side was intact and remained the same. Seeing this, Tia had obsessive-compulsive disorder and wanted the two sides to be symmetrical...

But she didn't move.

Mu Ran didn't notice her hesitation. He wrapped it with leaves and said with a smile, "Given our height and body shape, you exercise more and it's normal that you eat more than me."

He is a head taller than her, and even wearing a knight's costume can't hide his plump figure. The most important thing is that he is not a human, so how can he have the same appetite as her?

Tia did not refute, "That's right, you are too thin and lack exercise. Eat more and take care of yourself in the future."

"Well, I will try to eat more!" Mu Ran nodded slightly, not for anything else, just to live better.

In fact, she is not thin, she is 50 meters tall and weighs kg, which is normal, neither fat nor thin.

But compared with Tia, she is indeed far behind. Her figure is like that of European and American models, slender and plump.

Her facial features are delicate and elegant, her skin is not white, and it looks very healthy at first glance. Tia is beautiful, and her golden eyes are more beautiful than those with colored contact lenses, and they are very charming if you look closely.

However, when getting along with each other, her appearance is easily overlooked, but her temperament cannot be ignored.

A woman who is cool, elegant, and very imposing, like a queen.

This is the ideal type that Mu Ran wants to be, but unfortunately she doesn't have the innate conditions to achieve it. Her different living environment has shaped her personality.

Mu Ran let out a light breath. She couldn't change things that were determined by her genes. She could only work hard to adapt to her current life first and then worry about other things.

After wrapping the grilled fish, she placed it on a nearby tree. After making sure it wouldn't fall, she walked towards the river and washed the oil on her hands.

Tia also came over and squatted beside her to wash together. She grabbed a handful of leaves, mashed them and applied them on her hands to remove oil.

Under the moonlight, the female's black hair naturally fell down, covering her gentle profile. Tia turned her head to look at her and couldn't help but admire in her heart that her face was so small, almost as big as her palm. Such a cute female would definitely be very popular in the imperial capital.

Thinking of this, he asked, "Mu Ran, you are usually very popular among males, right?"

This question made Qiu, who was eavesdropping not far away, nervous. He was proud that the female he liked was popular, but he was also afraid that she had too many suitors, which would make him look even more unbearable.

Mu Ran, who was washing his face, paused when he heard this and tilted his head to look at her, "No."

"I'm very ordinary in our place." She said and continued washing her face. No boy had ever pursued her, although she didn't know many people of the opposite sex.
