Chapter 60: Do You Want to Eat? I’ll Only Ask Once
Gu Nuo’er sniffed. As expected, she stopped crying and sat there waiting for him.
Ye Siming seemed to be very satisfied with her reaction.
He took care of the sparrow very quickly. Gu Nuo’er didn’t see where he got the firewood from either.
Ye Siming made a roasting pit under the corridor and started a fire with a flint. He then skewered the sparrow with a longsword and roasted it over the fire.
Gu Nuo’er quickly smelled the fragrance of meat.
When Ye Siming pulled away the clothes on her head, Gu Nuo’er immediately saw the roasted sparrow on the roasting pit that emitted a fragrant smell.
Her small mouth moved and she gulped.
Ye Siming’s hands had been washed clean at some point. There was no blood on it at all.
He pulled Gu Nuo’er up from the ground and brought her to the fire.
Then, as if he wasn’t afraid of the heat, he brought the sword which had the sparrow skewered on it close, and tore off a piece of meat with his long fingers.
The fragrant sparrow meat was brought to Gu Nuo’er’s lips.
The child was still thinking about the bloody scene just now. Even though her stomach was already growling hungrily, she still shook her head silently with a pale face.
Ye Siming raised his eyebrows. “You’re really not eating? Aren’t you hungry?”
......
Gu Nuo’er said in a childish voice, “But the little sparrow is so pitiful…”
Ye Siming smiled, then ignored her and sat down beside Gu Nuo’er.
The boy rested his arm on his long legs and threw the torn sparrow meat into his mouth.
After a while, he said, “Not only is it pitiful, but it’s also very delicious and fragrant.”
Ye Siming ate with relish. Gu Nuo’er’s stomach let out a hungry sound again.
Gu Nuo’er couldn’t help but turn her head and look at the meat in Ye Siming’s hand.
The boy felt the child’s longing gaze and sneered. “Do you want to eat? I’ll only ask once. If you don’t eat it, I’ll finish it.”
Gu Nuo’er pursed her petal-like lips and replied softly, “Yes~ Ah~”
She opened her mouth obediently.
Ye Siming tore off a piece of sparrow meat and blew on it before putting it into her mouth.
His fingertips touched Gu Nuo’er’s lips. In an instant, he felt as if he had been licked by a ball of cotton.
Ye Siming was a little stunned and quickly retracted his hand.
The roasted sparrow meat was fragrant, charred on the outside, and tender on the inside. When she took a bite, there was actually oil flowing out.
There were still tears on Gu Nuo’er’s face, but her expression was completely happy.
“Wuwu, delicious!” She looked at Ye Siming. “Elder Brother Siming, Baby Nuo wants more.”
Ye Siming laughed. “I thought you didn’t want to eat? You’re so stubborn!”
He pulled off the sparrow’s leg and handed it to Gu Nuo’er. The child held it with both hands and her lips were greasy from eating.
Ye Siming bit on the sparrow’s bones and made cracking sounds.
The two of them sat under the corridor, listening to the rain while eating fragrant sparrow meat.
The courtyard was filled with a quiet beauty.
Behind the festoon gate not far away, two heads were stacked together and their bodies were hidden behind the door, secretly peeping at Ye Siming and Gu Nuo’er.
Madam Bai suppressed her excitement. “Husband, this is the first time the sun has risen from the west. Siming actually didn’t sleep until dark today!”
General Bai Yi pondered for a moment and nodded. “However, he treats our house as the wilderness, killing birds and roasting them by the fire in the courtyard. I’d like to tell him that he can reach the kitchen after taking a few steps out of the courtyard.”
Madam Bai looked at him reproachfully. “Ever since Siming came to our house, he has been very lonely and has always been by himself. Isn’t it a good thing that he can communicate smoothly with the little princess now?
“I think he’s a pitiful child. If he can be happy, I wouldn’t have any objections even if this courtyard was burned down!”
