Hu Yao smelled it, and then turned her gaze to Bai Zhi. Her gaze was not the kind that would make people look at her with regret. Instead, it was a kind of refreshing and appreciative feeling, which made Bai Zhi not dislike such a gaze.
Hu Yao looked at her admiringly and said, "You are such a beautiful female."
Then she took out a box from the space and opened it. Inside was a black jade figure carved into the shape of a tiger. She could faintly feel something flowing inside. After a while, a light flashed by. She walked over to Bai Zhi and handed it to her very readily. "Nice to meet you. This is made of a kind of flint that is unique to our Liehu City. It can absorb all the bad things in the body. I wish you good health and happiness."
Bai Zhi was a little surprised. She originally thought that the introduction was enough. After all, they were still outside. The barbecue place was outside, and it was just a simple shed. She didn't expect that she would get a gift.
She was actually a little nervous when she heard Yue Junxiao introduce her just now. After all, it was her first time meeting the parents, so she was more or less nervous. But Hu Yao didn't make her feel that way at all. There was no uncomfortable staring at her, no various questions, not even a greeting. But from the attitude of the gift-giving, she could feel that he valued her.
Bai Zhi didn't dare to let her wait too long, so she took it solemnly and said, "Thank you."
Hu Yao said with a frank smile: "I like you very much. You are white, soft and tender, and you are very pleasing to look at. I guess you won't stay in Liehu City often in the future. Come back and play more often when you have time."
Bai Zhi nodded, "Okay."
Then Yue Junxiao introduced Hu Yan, who was standing to Bai Zhi's right, "This is Hu Yan, my wife's number one beast husband."
Hu Yao extended his hand towards him. "I've heard of you, the Third Prince of the Federation. You've been exceptionally gifted since childhood, the object of all orcs' efforts and the target of countless females."
Hu Yan shook his hand back, "They are too kind."
Hu Yao smiled brightly and said, "You are too modest. Thank you for taking care of Xiao'er."
Hu Yan: "It's my duty."
It just made Hu Yao feel a little surprised that even such a person was one of the beastly husbands.
Then Yue Junxiao looked at Sang Mo on the left, "This is Sang Mo."
After Hu Yao had shaken hands and greeted them one by one.
When Hu Zhen came back, Hu Yao had already recognized all of Yue Junxiao's companions.
Hu Zhen came back with a quick, noisy pace. "Let's go eat first. The meat has been portioned out."
Maybe he was walking too fast, and the flesh on his body was shaking. In fact, except for his big belly, his whole body was muscle. He looked very strong, the kind of strong and sturdy.
The group arrived at the restaurant. The table was very large, with several large plates of meat on it. Each piece was divided into moderate sizes, and some smaller pieces were specially divided and placed on a separate plate, obviously to take special care of Baizhi.
Apart from the barbecue, there were only some fruits and some dishes to go with the barbecue. It could be seen that the people in Liehu City really liked to eat animal meat. No wonder they were all so tall and strong.
So, does that mean that the people in Liehu City don't drink nutrient solution? They mainly eat animal meat?
Perhaps because Bai Zhi's face was full of doubt, making it easy to read her thoughts, Hu Yao explained, "We mainly eat wild animal meat here. We use air-dried meat from hunting, mixed with a little bit of nutrient solution. But we don't like nutrient solution, so we won't eat it unless necessary."
Bai Zhi smiled embarrassedly and nodded.
After sitting down, Bai Zhi discovered that there were only a few of them at the table.
There were several large plates piled high with meat in front of them. There were two big beasts' meats, and they were just a few people. Even if orcs eat a lot, they couldn't finish it, right?
But soon, Bai Zhi discovered that no matter whether it was Hu Zhen or Hu Yao, they were really unreserved when it came to eating animal meat.
While Hu Zhen was eating meat with big mouthfuls, he did not forget to give some to Yue Junxiao and patted him on the back vigorously. "Xiao'er, look how thin you are. You need to eat more. Only if you eat meat with big mouthfuls like me can you grow tall and strong."
Yue Junxiao looked at the beast meat piled in front of him, which was almost higher than his upper body. For the first time, he felt that beast meat was so worthless.
Back then, when they hunted a high-level beast, their first reaction was to sell it for star coins.
It was a rare opportunity for them to eat animal meat and they laughed out loud with excitement.
But now, looking at the full table and the pile of animal meat in front of him, he swallowed hard.
After Hu Zhen finished talking to Yue Junxiao, he turned around and saw that the others were also eating slowly and politely. Thinking that they were embarrassed, he quickly greeted them, "Eat as much as you can. Don't be polite. I asked someone to roast another one, so don't worry about not having enough."
Now not only Bai Zhi, but Hu Yan and the others were also a little surprised.
Yue Junxiao immediately remembered that Hu Zhen had just said that he wanted to roast a beast just for him. The six of them combined couldn't even finish half the beast's meat, so he quickly spoke up to stop him, "There's already enough on the table. We can have more. No need to roast another one."
Hu Yan also said, "You are too polite, City Lord. This is enough for us to eat. It would be a waste if we can't finish it."
Hearing this, Hu Zhen said disappointedly: "You have such a small appetite."
They have quite the appetite! Hu Zhen's appetite is truly excessive, no wonder he has such a large body.
Hu Yao explained, "Nothing will be wasted. We will put it on separate plates in advance and take the next one after finishing one. Anything left over will be shared with other people in the City Lord's Mansion."
Bai Zhi nodded thoughtfully, "So that's how it is. This way, it really won't be wasted."
No wonder they took out all the meat at the beginning, so that it would be convenient whether eating or storing it.
In the past, when she ate this kind of whole roasted fish, the whole fish would usually be served and the waiter would slice some of it for her. She would continue to slice it while she was eating. Only when it was time to pack it up would the waiter ask her to disassemble it all and pack it up to take home.
After the meal, Bai Zhi didn't even finish the small plate of meat in front of her. What she didn't finish was taken care of by Hu Yan and the others.
In contrast, Hu Yao and Hu Zhen each ate a large plate, and Hu Zhen was even eating his second plate.
The five of Hu Yan ate two plates together.
Their appetite was considered quite good, but in front of Hu Zhen, they were obviously not enough.
There was almost no meat left on the table, and Hu Zhen was still cleaning up.
In other words, Hu Zhen and Hu Yao ate more than one, while Bai Zhi and the other six people had not even eaten one.
This is the result of having a lot of things forced upon them.
After a meal, I was so full that I didn’t want to move.
After dinner, Hu Yao was about to take them to their respective rooms. Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Just tell us where the rooms are and we can go there on our own, or you can have someone take us there. You and Jun Xiao haven't seen each other for so many years, so you must have a lot to talk about. We won't bother you anymore."
