Thorne struggled to suppress the urge to sneeze, then steeled himself, closed his eyes, and picked up the oyster.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his tongue couldn't help but slurp, and the tender oyster meat slid into his mouth with his slurping motion.
Before he could say anything, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and knocked the oyster out of his hand. He was then violently shaken, and a familiar female voice rang in his ears.
"Spit it out right now!"
"How can you eat everything?!"
Thorne was shaken so badly that he lost his balance, and his previously muddled mind began to sway.
He swallowed the oyster meat with difficulty, and then looked up. A young and beautiful woman was looking at him with worried eyes. When she saw that he was awake, she immediately hugged him.
"Tell Mom if you're hungry!"
"How can they eat anything?"
"Is this something we can eat?"
"Are you out of your mind?!"
Audrey quickly hugged her son and looked him up and down. Seeing that he was alright, she belatedly breathed a sigh of relief, and then a barrage of complaints came crashing down on him.
"Didn't they give you anything to eat? Why do you eat everything?"
"If this gluttonous brat gets poisoned to death, where will your mother find you?"
As she spoke, she slapped Thorne hard on the back, almost making him vomit up the meat he had just swallowed.
This series of actions happened in the blink of an eye, leaving Ling Miao and Fan Youyou dumbfounded, while the viewers in the live stream were also amused by this dramatic scene.
[I think I saw my mom! Help!]
[Hilarious! The interstellar space is so vast, we all have the same mom! [smile]JPG]
Am I the only one thinking about that oyster that got swallowed? It looked so delicious and juicy... I should have eaten it.
I wanted to eat it too, but it felt like he swallowed it without even tasting it.
[Why isn't the streamer eating oysters yet? I want some! [drooling][drooling]JPG]
I really want to eat it too.
[I'm curious, have any of you upstairs tried this?]
【No】
【Why do you guys want to eat this so much? [Question][Question]JPG.】
[Wow, this is amazing! I thought you guys liked it so much because you'd already tried it.]
No, the food our streamer makes is absolutely delicious!!
[So you guys have never even tried it...]
The live stream chat was immediately filled with silence, and some inexplicable comments appeared, leaving Ling Miao's fans completely baffled.
[So what if I haven't tried it? The food the streamer makes is the best; I love everything she makes.]
[Yeah, just because we haven't tried it before doesn't mean we can't want to eat it now!]
[They boast so much, yet everything they make tastes delicious [speechless][speechless]JPG.]
[Go ahead and try it, nobody's stopping you. [speechless][smile]JPG.]
[Exactly, don't regret it later when you eat it.]
The discussion in the live stream was still going strong, and some netizens were stirred up by the confident words of Ling Miao's fans.
They were determined to stay glued to the live stream, eager to see if the food the streamer made was as delicious as her fans claimed.
And oysters?
Who exactly likes to eat this kind of thing?
I'm truly impressed.
This stuff will taste like seafood no matter how you eat it, and it might even contain a lot of sand.
While secretly hoping to be proven wrong, they watched with a curiosity they themselves didn't even realize.
Audrey was engrossed in watching the live stream when she looked her son up and down. Finding him alright, she then noticed the other people standing around.
Just as she was about to speak, she caught a glimpse of the oysters still grilling on the rack out of the corner of her eye. Audrey frowned and glared at Ling Miao with a fierce look.
Why are you feeding my son random things?!
"It's one thing for you to eat it yourself, but how could you give it to a child?"
"If you get sick from eating it, can you afford to pay for it?"
Before Ling Miao could even begin to defend herself, Thorne, who was in her arms, broke free from her mother's grasp, stepped forward to protect Ling Miao, and loudly retorted:
"It was my own choice to eat it, so don't blame her."
Hearing her son still defending the other woman, Audrey felt a surge of anger. She took two steps forward, pulled her son aside, and sized Ling Miao up and down.
Her red lips curled upwards, and her eyes were filled with sarcasm. "If you can't afford to eat, we have plenty. There's no need to use this kind of thing to play the victim."
"It's not just that it's pitiful, it's also misleading children to eat it."
"Does anyone know what harm this stuff might do to your health?"
"You're just asking for your own death, don't drag my son down with you."
Audrey launched into a long, rambling monologue, to which Fan Youyou was the first to retort.
“It was clearly your son who asked for it.”
"And this stuff isn't poisonous at all."
"How can you just curse someone to their death like that?"
"I'm talking to her, what right do you have to interrupt?"
Audrey glanced at her and was about to say something when her rascal pulled her back and hurriedly shook his head at her.
Seeing her son's anxious expression, Audrey managed to calm herself down. Having already spoken and vented her anger, she was no longer as aggressive as before.
"I'm in a good mood today, so I won't hold it against you."
"Don't let this happen again. These things are not edible!"
"If you're really hungry, go to a seaside hotel and give me room number 888, I'll pay for it."
After the woman finished speaking, she turned around, pulled her son who was still standing there hesitating, and urged him on as they walked away.
"Don't put everything in your mouth, do you hear me?"
"He usually seems quite clever, but at times like this he's just a fool."
"Um—this young lady?"
Ling Miao called out to her loudly.
Audrey stopped, turned around, and looked at Ling Miao with raised eyebrows.
Ling Miao pointed to the oysters on the plate, "Would you like to try some?"
Seeing that Audrey remained silent, she continued:
"It's delicious."
Audrey stood there watching her, her gaze slowly shifting from surprise to pity.
She walked over slowly and looked at the fair and tender face with soft cheeks, only then realizing how young she was.
Her face is small and delicate, and she looks like she's not even an adult yet.
"You can't eat this, sweetie."
Where are your parents?
Having been so busy arguing, Audrey hadn't really looked at her closely; the other woman's face was incredibly small, and her features were soft.
He looks like a child who is just thirteen or fourteen years old.
Seeing that the other person was clean and neatly dressed, it seemed that someone was taking care of her.
I don't know which family's adults are so irresponsible as to leave a girl with obvious intellectual disabilities out in the wild.
She looked around, her gaze fixed directly on Fan Youyou, who was standing to one side.
Are you her friend or family?
Fan Youyou was taken aback by the question. She scratched the back of her head and said uncertainly, "Friend?"
