"Eva, come and eat my food." Mandy handed the mushroom balls to her. She had been on a diet recently. She only ate vegetables and didn't eat meat, lest she had too many calories.
Eva smiled, "My best friend is the most considerate." After saying that, she glared at Jim and continued to eat.
Jim ignored her, put the roasted beef ribs on the plate and began to eat elegantly.
The constant fragrance from the side attracted the greed on the tip of Eva's tongue. She turned her head and stole a glance at it. The beef ribs were so well roasted that they were both burnt and tender. She couldn't understand why a person like Jim who was well-off and well-dressed was able to cook so well!
In a trance, she seemed to see a cow rib flying towards her and to her mouth. The fragrance penetrated into her nose, making the greedy in her stomach excited. It directly attacked her brain, making it unable to play normal sense again.
She couldn't stand it anymore and bit it.
'Oh my God! It's so smooth, so delicious, so crispy and so yummy. I have never eaten such delicious beef ribs in my life.' So she opened her mouth wider and was about to take another two bites when the beef ribs suddenly flew away. A low voice came from the side, "is it delicious?"
"Yummy." She nodded like a chicken pecking rice, as if she had been hypnotized.
"Do you want to eat more?"
"Yes, I do." She nodded calmly.
Jim couldn't help laughing. He had seen a greedy cat before, but it was the first time that he had seen such a greedy cat like her. He seriously suspected that one day, the heaven pepper would sell herself for delicious food.
A gust of night wind blew from the valley, and Eva seemed to wake up from a dream. When she saw the handsome and mocking face in front of her, she realized her gaffe. Embarrassed, she turned her head, lowered her head and ate the mushroom balls without saying anything.
Jim smiled and gave her the beef ribs on the plate. "For the sake that you are my companion, I'll give you this reward."
As soon as Eva saw it, her face lit up with laughter. "Then I won't be so polite." She never fought with food. The world was big, and her stomach was the biggest. Even the end of the world could not stop her from tasting food.
She ate up the beef rib quickly.
"Heaven pepper, the camera is still on. Do you want the whole country to appreciate your horrible eating?" Jim sneered, as if he was reminding her to pay attention to her image.
She choked hard, covered her mouth and coughed for a few times to ease the air. "If I am shot, I'll ask the director to cut it off." She said awkwardly.
"That's a good idea." With a faint smile, Jim picked up a chicken wing and roasted it.
Eva also picked up one and was about to put it on the fire to roast, but he stopped her. "Wasting food is a shameful behavior." This was a mockery.
"Don't look down upon me. I'll cook it well this time." Eva shook off his hand angrily. She was absent-minded just now, so she burnt it. This time, she must take it seriously.
But the bonfire seemed to be against her, once again roasted her chicken wings into charcoal.
She was so angry that when the photographer turned the camera to her, she quickly reached out her hand and covered the camera. "It's burnt. Don't shoot me. Shoot others."
The photographer chuckled, "Sis Eva, barbecue is your weakness." Because Eva was the most popular star of the Sino Star, everyone in the entertainment circle called her sis Eva.
Eva smiled awkwardly, "I'm exposed."
The photographer moved the camera away with a smile, letting Eva focus on eating. Everyone in the entertainment circle knew her temper. As long as she could eat well, everything was negotiable.
Her assistant began to work beside her, but the food she cooked was totally different from that of Jim. Eva looked at Jim's plate while eating.
Jim sensed that. He didn't know if it was because of the Buddha's light last night that he generously gave her the freshly roasted chicken wings. What made him more dizzy was that her greedy look made him very satisfied. Then, he couldn't help but roast her four beef ribs, half a big fish, three chicken wings, and a corn until she was full.
With an unbelievable and grateful look on her face, Eva seriously suspected that this guy was possessed by angel in Yellowstone National Park.
"Jim, you should come to America more often in the future."
"Why?" Jim asked.
"You've become very popular here." Eva smiled gracefully. She was too satisfied with the food. Jim seemed to have a pair of magic hands. No matter what kind of food he had, it would become delicious.
Beside the bonfire, many people were watching this scene. The relationship between Jim and Eva seemed unusual. However, in the entertainment circle, it was not ruled out that the two of them were deliberately hyping and creating some ambiguous topics when the new play was just put on.
The director winked at the photographer, and the photographer quickly aimed the camera at Eva again. "Sis Eva, how is the cooking of Jim?"
Eva chuckled, "do you know what delicious food is? It's the thing I've just eaten. Now I finally know who our king Jim is. He is the God of food! "
