"No...no thanks." Su Qingqing quickly waved her hands to indicate that she didn't need it.

Yan Li ignored her and started eating.

Su Qingqing couldn't bear to watch any further. Just think, how awkward would it be for a super handsome guy to be chewing a piece of meat with blood all over his mouth the next second?

It's painful just to think about it, let alone to see it up close.

Su Qingqing finally couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't help but say, "Yan...Yan Li..."

Yan Li turned his head to look at her, with questioning eyes.

Su Qingqing considered her tone and spoke tentatively, "You... you can now transform into a human form, so your sense of taste won't change? For example... you will find this meat fishy like a human."

"Humanity?"

He frowned, thinking Su Qingqing's words were strange.

If he hadn't been able to understand, he would have thought he had heard it wrong.

He has been like this since birth, what does it have to do with whether he can transform into a human form?

But he didn't know what to say, so he could only put down what he was holding and stare at Su Qingqing, as if he was thinking about how to express himself.

But when Su Qingqing saw this action, she immediately thought that he was annoyed by her nagging.

"I... I mean, it will taste better if the meat is cooked and sprinkled with seasoning!" She spoke in a panic, not daring to look him in the eye. "If you find me annoying, you can just pretend you didn't hear me..."

"tasty?"

"Yes... yes, you have already cultivated into a human form, so your sense of taste should be the same as that of humans. Perhaps you would like human food?"

This sentence actually piqued Yan Li's interest.

There are indeed people who travel and have picnics here nearby, and the aroma wafting from it is particularly pleasant.

He was indeed interested at first in the fact that humans used fire to cook meat.

But this kind of people don't like fire by nature. Besides, the ability to make fire is very precious to them, and he doesn't know how to do it.

And one time he accidentally let a human see him, but the experience was not very good.

At that time, he was attracted by the smell of food in the other person's pot and wanted to ask him how humans could control fire at will.

The man was very scared at first, and ran away frantically with a terrified look on his face, leaving him no chance to speak, and of course he didn't pay any attention to him.

As a result, a week later, he came back with his companions.

Those people trapped him in a huge net and pierced his body with some sharp water with a strange smell, making him weak and powerless.

But even if their bodies become weak, they are still weak in their own eyes.

Such weak and low-level males actually dared to offend him. In a rage, he killed all of them.

Because of that incident, he was unwilling to come into contact with the human males here, so he stayed in this forest and maintained his living habits in the animal world.

But because there were often passers-by, he slowly learned various human languages, and although human things were very interesting to him, because no one taught him how to use them, they became particularly useless. He felt that they were not as useful as his own strength, so he threw them aside after playing with them for a while.

Now that Su Qingqing mentioned it, he became interested in the aroma of human food again.

So he said, "I...I won't get angry..."

Su Qingqing immediately understood that he was not angry, but he just didn't know how to express it.

So she immediately said, "It's okay, I can do it. I just found a lighter. It's easy to make a fire with it. Let's try to roast this meat and see how it cooks."

There were some seasonings left by some climbers in the backpack. Thinking about the hot food she would be able to eat later, Su Qingqing was full of anticipation, and her eyes looked more eager as she looked at the other party.

Yan Li saw that she was looking at him eagerly. Although he was very hungry, he did not refuse and nodded.

Then Su Qingqing asked Yan to go outside to get some hay and firewood, while she took the meat back to the cave, washed it with mineral water, and carefully applied salt and pepper to marinate it.

She actually doesn’t know how to cook very well, but she learned how to make two dishes and snacks from the chef at home.

But it should be no problem to simply fry a steak.

After taking the folding iron pot out of the backpack and putting it away, Yan Li watched Su Qingqing light a fire with that small thing in the open space.

Flames soon rose in the open space. Su Qingqing placed the marinated steak on the leaves and picked up the knife to cut it with some difficulty.

Yan Li was somewhat annoyed that her movements were too slow, so he snatched the meat from her hand and randomly scratched it a few times with his sharp nails. The meat then broke apart and turned into evenly sized steaks.

What Yan Li caught today was a yellow cattle that had just reached adulthood, and its meat was tender and smooth.

Su Qingqing put the butter into the pot to melt, and just as she put the steak in, they smelled a tempting aroma.

Yan Li's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help swallowing several times, "Hurry up!"

Su Qingqing said, "We need to wait a little longer. This steak is a bit thick. It will take a little longer, otherwise it will be all bloody."

But after saying this, Su Qingqing found it funny again. This guy can be eaten raw, so what's the big deal if there's a little blood.

So she turned the steak over, fiddled with it a few more times, and when she was sure it looked good, she took it out and placed it in front of him.

Yan Li stretched out his hand and was about to grab it, but he suddenly retracted his hand because he was burned by the heat.

Su Qingqing reminded him, "You need to blow it."

Yan Li thought that humans were so troublesome. He was full in the time it took him to collect firewood and make a fire.

But seeing that she was in high spirits and not as afraid of him as before, he could only endure it. He lowered his head and blew on the meat. When he felt it was almost done, he picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth.

The moment the thing entered his mouth, his light pink pupils couldn't help but tremble.

The meat is soft, glutinous, and tastes just the right amount of salty, making it exceptionally delicious.

He had never eaten meat that felt like this.

"Is it tasty?"

Su Qingqing asked him from the side.

Yan Li finished what he had in his mouth before looking at her. He didn't answer her directly, but just said, "I want more!"

Su Qingqing just watched him eat the steak he made bite by bite.

Even if some parts of her food were burnt, he would eat it all up.

Seeing how much he liked it, Su Qingqing felt a surge of joy in her heart.

After all, her cooking skills were not very good. She had cooked for her boyfriend Chen Yang on a whim. Not only did she learn classic Chinese and Western cooking methods from the chef for two months, but she also cut her hands and was scalded by the oil several times while cooking.

But he complained that this one had too much salt, and that one was too dark and didn't look good.

She was so angry that she threw away her knife and fork and turned away. The two of them were in a cold war for more than a month because of that incident. Chen Yang called her later. She thought he wanted to apologize to her, but it turned out that he was calling her to help him pay off the debt he owed to the restaurant.

It was after that time that she and her bestie discovered that Chen Yang was cheating on her, and they agreed to catch him in the act in a hotel a week later.

In the end, she couldn't help but go there early, but she didn't expect to be caught red-handed. The person who cheated was actually her best friend who had been particularly loyal and helped her with advice before.

Thinking of this, Su Qingqing's heart, which had just risen, sank again, and she didn't even notice that the steak in front of her was burnt.

It was only when Yan Li urged her that she came back to her senses. Seeing the burnt steak, she felt like crying but could not. "Sorry, this one is too burnt. I'll make another one."

After all, I still have to rely on him to protect me now, and maybe he can help me find the way home later, so I need to win his favor now.

At least Yanli wouldn't hate me so much that he would eat her up, or abandon her here after playing with her for a few days and finding her useless.

So she wanted to tell Yan Li that she was useful during this period.
