Feeling the ointment on her palm, Xu Xia hurriedly apologized, "Sorry, I forgot you got burned here too."
Leng Zirui chuckled softly, "No worries, I’m already used to your intelligence!"
Xu Xia raised her hand to hit him again but saw his back full of burns under the light. She lifted her hand but put it down again. "Forget it, I’m in a good mood today, I won’t hold it against a disabled person like you. Thanks for helping me just now!"
If he hadn’t knocked her down, those sparks would have definitely fallen on her. Burns would be minor; her face might have been scarred. Thinking about the consequences is quite scary.
"Protecting animals is everyone’s responsibility." Leng Zirui said with a smile.
"Leng Zirui, are you looking to die?" Xu Xia couldn’t take it anymore and aimed a kick at him.
Leng Zirui was prepared. He sidestepped her attack, "Stop wasting your efforts and help me bring the plate over."
Xu Xia glared at him, but eventually turned and fetched the plate. Leng Zirui took some salt and cumin from the seasoning box, expertly sprinkled it on the barbecue, and the enticing aroma immediately spread out.
Xu Xia sniffed the air, "Smells so good. Did you develop this skill surviving in the wild?"
After transferring the grilled meat onto a plate and stirring the coals, Leng Zirui turned and placed the meat by the small table, sitting down on the blanket, "In the wild, it’s raw meat and open flame. Isn’t that just seeking death?"
"Raw meat?" Xu Xia wrinkled her nose as she sat beside him and took a skewer from the plate to bite, "How do you eat that? Don’t you guys have compressed food or something?"
"In the wild, you never know how long you’ll be there. Those foods should be saved for last, so you have to make do with what’s available, don’t let anything edible slip by." Leng Zirui glanced at the skewer in her hand, "Like bugs, mice..."
The meat in Xu Xia’s mouth instantly became hard to swallow, "Can you not talk about disgusting stuff?!"
