Chen Ping examined the abundant seafood he had just caught: twelve lobsters over three meters long were jumping around, seven giant king crabs up to four meters wide were majestic and impressive, a dozen plump and thick abalone were neatly arranged, and most eye-catching were five fresh sea cucumbers half a meter long—their tender and smooth texture was particularly tempting. In addition, he also harvested a large number of huge shellfish ranging from one to two meters in size, with a variety of species and vibrant colors.
After carefully preparing all the seafood, Chen Ping skillfully began grilling. Within minutes, the rich aroma of grilling filled the air, making mouths water. Chen Ping inhaled the fragrance with satisfaction and exclaimed repeatedly, "Excellent, this is truly a top-notch culinary experience."
He skillfully flipped the ingredients, evenly sprinkled the seasonings, and meticulously brushed on layers of oil, handling every step of the grilling process perfectly.
As the barbecue progressed, the enticing aroma grew stronger and stronger, clearly perceptible within a kilometer radius, whetting everyone's appetite. It was as if the entire heart of the sacred island was eagerly anticipating the start of this feast. This lively scene added a touch of human warmth to this mysterious island.
......
Inside the villa, Lycia, who was holding Ailai, who was sleeping sweetly, suddenly trembled slightly, ground her teeth, and then her nostrils twitched gently, as if she had caught a whiff of an intoxicating fragrance—"(╯▽╰ ) Wow, it smells so good~"
In her dream, Lycia was instantly surrounded by a dazzling seafood feast, with lobsters, king crabs, plump abalone, and all kinds of large shellfish, except for sea cucumbers, which she didn't like and thought looked strange.
"Gurgle~~!"
The aroma in reality grew stronger, intertwining with the delicious food in her dream, making Lycia's dream scene even more lifelike, and she couldn't help but drool with happiness.
Slurp!
In her daze, Lycia mumbled, "Smelly lobsters and crabs! Slurp~"
Then, with a vivid "I'll bite!" accompanied by the blurring of dream and reality, Lycia actually took action in her sleep.
"Ah~!!!"
Ailee cried out in pain, jolted awake from her sweet dream. She opened her eyes sharply and turned to look at her arm—the source of the pain.
Lycia was happily nibbling at her arm, her mouth drooling, looking like she was sleepwalking while eating. Startled, Ailey immediately screamed, "Lycia!!!"
The shout was so loud that it pierced through the villa walls and reached Chen Ping, who was barbecuing outside.
Chen Ping turned around and looked at the second floor of the villa. What was going on? Was that Ai Laiyi's voice just now? And were those the shouts from Licia? It's the middle of the night, are they still awake? He frowned, then raised the barbecue grill a little higher so the food wouldn't burn, and then walked towards the villa. He was going to check it out.
Soon, Chen Ping arrived at the room of Ailai, Yimoer, and Licia, and knocked.
Boom boom boom!!!
Chen Ping asked with concern, "Ailayi, what happened?"
Ailai: "Brother Chen Ping? Come in."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ping opened the door and went inside. He saw Ailai rubbing her arm, while Licia knelt on the bed with tears in her eyes, and Yimoer yawning in a daze.
Upon seeing this, Chen Ping blinked and asked in confusion, "What's going on with you guys? What's wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Lycia looked at Chen Ping with tears welling up in her eyes, her pitiful appearance heartbreaking to see. There was also a trace of drool at the corner of her mouth.
Ailai hissed and covered her arm helplessly, saying, "It's nothing, Brother Chen Ping, I'm sorry, I disturbed you."
Hmm? Seeing Ailaiyi clutching her arm, Chen Ping walked over and removed her hand. Instantly, the teeth marks on her arm came into Chen Ping's view. Looking at the red teeth marks, he thought, "Wow, how much force did they have to use?"
Chen Ping used his magic to wipe away the teeth marks quickly. After doing so, he looked at Ailai and said helplessly, "Was it bitten by Lycia?"
Upon hearing this, Ailai nodded, then turned to look at the tearful Licia.
Lycia protested, "I... I really didn't mean to! Lycia thought it was a giant lobster or crab from my dream, the smell was so tempting, so fragrant! Waaah, I never expected... it was actually Sister Elaine's arm, waaaah..."
Uh, Chen Ping was a little confused when he heard this. So he was also responsible for this? If he hadn't suddenly decided to eat barbecue, this wouldn't have happened.
Chen Ping felt a little embarrassed, but he quickly put aside his embarrassment and said to Lycia, "You dreamed of something delicious? Come on, Brother Chen Ping, I'm having a barbecue right now."
Chen Ping brought the three little ones out of bed, since they couldn't fall asleep anytime soon anyway, they might as well have something to eat as a midnight snack.
"Wow! Brother Chen Ping, this looks just like the one in Lydia's dream! A big lobster, a big crab, slurp~ It smells so good, I want to eat it~"
Lycia said happily, swallowing hard.
The aroma also whetted Ailai and Yimo'er's appetites, and their stomachs began to rumble.
Seeing this, Chen Ping laughed and said, "Alright, alright, you're done. I'll get it for you right away."
Chen Ping simply made up a large table and four chairs, and then began to put the grilled lobsters and crabs on the table one by one, and the fragrant barbecue dishes were served one by one.
The table was completely filled, and there was still half a grill left.
Chen Ping smiled and said, "Alright, we can start eating now. I'll go get some drinks. What would you like?"
Lycia was the first to speak up: "Me, me, Brother Chen Ping, Lycia wants Chengcheng's juice!"
Ailai and Yimoer wanted apple cider vinegar or similar drinks. Chen Ping nodded, then went to the vending machine, inserted coins, and quickly received their drinks.
Now, Chen Ping, Ai Laiyi, Yi Mo'er, and Licia began to enjoy the delicious barbecue to their hearts' content.
The four of them spent nearly two hours eating a barbecue. They had to eat slowly and carefully, otherwise, the food would have been enough for Chen Ping alone.
After eating and drinking their fill, Chen Ping took the three little ones directly to the bathroom to wash up. After resting for a while, he told them to go back to sleep.
