Golden, crispy, fragrant... the roasted rabbit is like a beautiful scene, attracting the gazes of Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, and Sheng Qingyan. They sneak up to Ji You, who has slapped them away countless times, but they still don’t give up.
Ji You turns the rabbit over and continues sprinkling salt on it.
Yue Qiguang keeps moving around beside her, maintaining a certain distance, on guard against Ji You or Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan suddenly taking a swipe at him, while also hoping to steal the roasted rabbit when nobody is looking.
Ji You looks at him obliquely: "I advise you to give up on the idea of stealing the rabbit."
Chu Jiaojiao immediately coos in sycophantic agreement, saying, "Exactly! Only shameless, despicable, lowly... people would steal a rabbit!"
Ji You glances at her, mercilessly exposing her little scheme: "Even if you join me in cursing, no matter how harshly you scold Yue Qiguang, making him too ashamed to lift his head, I still won’t give you an extra piece of rabbit meat."
Because she helped light the fire, Ji You has already promised her a piece of the rabbit meat, so Chu Jiaojiao excitedly sidles up to Ji You, giggling: "Just giving me a piece is fine, I’m not greedy, I really am not greedy, I absolutely am not greedy."
Yue Qiyuan doesn’t make a sound. He squats to the side, eyes constantly fixed on the rabbit and the flames, adding a log to the fire quite obediently when the flames die down.
After adding the log, he looks up, his gaze fixed on Ji You, filled with suggestive implications.
Ji You turns her head away.
Yue Qiyuan turns his head back and keeps staring at her.
Ji You massages her forehead, saying, "Alright, I know you are thick-faced."
Sheng Qingyan’s behavior is different from everyone else’s. He is bold and unrestrained. After throwing several flirtatious eyes at Ji You to no avail, he simply plops down in front of Ji You, puckering up with red lips, "Student number 4444, all the poses you like, I’ve got them all..."
Ji You’s hand trembles.
Seeing this, Sheng Qingyan tries harder: "Do you like it by the year? By the month? Or just for a day? I can do it all..."
Ji You clenches her teeth, "I like to blow your head open! Get lost!"
"So brutal..." Sheng Qingyan: "I’m still a Little Cutie... don’t scare me..."
Ji You feels goosebumps all over, almost throwing the roasted rabbit in her hand, she restrains herself, maintaining calm, and finally finds her voice: "...Shut up, stay 2 meters away from me, no! 5 meters! I’ll give you a piece of meat."
Sheng Qingyan’s eyes immediately light up, sensibly stepping back a few steps, and then a few more...
The enticing aroma challenges everyone’s saliva and reason—
This tests control of the heat, but Ji You, who hasn’t had a decent meal in half a year, is roasting the rabbit with almost devout dedication, making it shiny with oil and wonderfully fragrant...
Ji You takes the rabbit off the grill, looking at the aromatic rabbit, she sighs softly, "Rest in peace—pure, beautiful, selfless little rabbit. Your sacrifice was not in vain, for I will remember it forever."
Before she finished speaking, she eagerly tears off a piece of meat and stuffs it into her mouth. Upon biting into it, the skin is a layer of satisfying crunch followed by the tender meat inside, truly a perfect combination of crispy and tender.
Ji You narrows her eyes, her face full of enjoyment: This is the food that humans should revel in. As for the nutrient solution? That’s simply a dark invention that destroys human nature, something to be abandoned! Despised! A shameful scandal in the world of food!
Four heads, eight eyes, all crowd around, eagerly staring at Ji You.
Ji You was eating with grease all over her mouth. She sucked on her finger, then under everyone’s intense gaze, she raised her hand, pulled off a rabbit leg, and tossed it to Chu Jiaojiao. She pulled off a front leg and threw it to Yue Qiyuan, and then, reluctantly, tore off a piece of meat and flung it to Sheng Qingyan.
All three had gotten their share of rabbit meat, and Yue Qiguang was so anxious that his face was fraught with restlessness: "What about me? What about me? What about me?"
Ji You: "Dad doesn’t play with idiots."
Ji You turned her back, using a heartless iron back against Yue Qiguang.
Yue Qiguang trotted up to Ji You, stared at her for a few seconds, and then revealed a look of profound desolation, yelling, "Dad!"
Ji You’s hand trembled as she hurled a rabbit leg at Yue Qiguang, cursing, "Get lost! I don’t have a son that makes a fool of himself like you!"
Yue Qiguang’s quick reactions allowed him to catch the rabbit leg and devour it voraciously.
The starving stomachs received their supplement, and the health bars of everyone present visibly rose a bit. Yue Qiguang’s precarious health bar went from 1% to 5%, nearly making him laugh himself unconscious.
This rabbit meat was also ridiculously delicious!
So, it turns out—you can actually roast a rabbit to eat.
Everyone had never tasted such delicious roasted meat and were completely stunned.
Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Chu Jiaojiao, and Sheng Qingyan finished off the meat in their hands in a few bites, then shamelessly licked the grease and oil on their hands and the corners of their mouths. Then—almost simultaneously, they turned their heads and stared straight at the remaining roasted rabbit meat in Ji You’s hand.
Ji You stepped back, her face on guard: "Don’t come any closer!"
The others took a step forward.
As Ji You hastily retreated, her eyes suddenly flickered, and she looked directly at Yue Qiyuan with a smile, "Well, how about treating your little grey rabbit to a full set of skin care?"
My rabbit is doomed——
With a single sentence, Ji You awoke everyone else.
Chu Jiaojiao immediately turned her face away: "Spare the rabbit, and we won’t kill you!"
Yue Qiguang’s eyes gleamed green as he said: "Spare the rabbit, and we won’t kill you!"
Sheng Qingyan covered her face, saying, "The bunny is so adorable, how can you do this to the bunny? This time, I want a rabbit leg..."
Despite Yue Qiyuan’s valiant resistance, this rabbit soon became an offering to everyone’s voracious appetites.
Of course—whether it was Ji You, the Yue Family twins, Chu Jiaojiao, or Sheng Qingyan, everyone’s eating manners looked very refined, keeping the fur intact and leaving the rabbit head and bones. After cleaning off all the meat, these scattered parts could still be pieced together to form a complete rabbit skeleton.
Looking at the two rabbit skeletons, Ji You licked the corner of her mouth and suddenly asked, "How many items did the principal say he released in the training grounds on the broadcast?"
Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Chu Jiaojiao, and Sheng Qingyan’s eyes simultaneously lit up, and in unison, they said, "100!!!"
