Xiao Hen bought two flavors of dried meat, one spicy and one honey sesame flavored. Additionally, he bought a bag of tofu-based vegetarian dried meat for little Jingkong.
He found Gu Jiao at the lantern riddle stall and handed her two boxes of the dried meat.
Gu Jiao first tried a piece of the spicy one, its sweet and spicy taste tinged with a slight numbness, making for a rich flavor experience.
"You should try a piece too," Gu Jiao offered, passing the box to Xiao Hen.
To make it easier for Gu Jiao to eat, Xiao Hen took all the lanterns she was holding.
Xiao Hen lifted the lanterns in his hand, indicating to Gu Jiao that his hands were now full.
As a result, Gu Jiao took a piece of dried meat and fed it directly into his mouth.
Xiao Hen ate it with a smile.
"Does it taste good?" Gu Jiao asked.
"Delicious," he said, looking deeply at her.
Mu Qingchen felt a pang of jealousy, his heart filled with irritation.
