The sea breeze caressed Rosie's face, and the warm sunlight bathed her face. She slowly opened her eyes and found herself standing on a small island. The soft, white sand stretched beneath her bare feet, warm and gentle to the touch. In the distance, lush tropical vegetation formed a green barrier, a stark contrast to the azure sky.
The waves gently lapped the shore, leaving streaks of white foam in their wake. Rosie took a deep breath, the salty air filling her lungs with a long-lost sense of relief.
Suddenly, ripples appeared on the water. Admiral Mike emerged from the sea, his golden tail gleaming in the sun, his scales reflecting a dazzling light. Rosie couldn't help but stare at the beautiful tail, a trace of wonder in her heart.
However, the next moment, unexpectedly, the golden fish tail began to change. The scales gradually faded, replaced by human skin. In the blink of an eye, a pair of slender and powerful legs appeared in front of Luo Xi.
Rosie's eyes widened as she suddenly realized what she was seeing. A blush quickly spread across her cheeks, and she quickly turned away, her heart beating uncontrollably.
"You...you should put on your clothes quickly," Rosie stammered, her voice filled with embarrassment. Her cheeks flushed, her heartbeat accelerated, and she tried hard not to think about what she had just seen. However, the astonishing sight of the golden fish tail transforming into human legs seemed to be seared into her mind, lingering.
Luo Xi squeezed her eyes shut, her hands twisted unconsciously together. She could feel the sea breeze brushing against her burning face, bringing a hint of coolness, but it couldn't calm the turmoil in her heart.
Admiral Mike's ears flushed faintly, and he whispered, "I'm sorry." His voice was low and gentle, with a subtle hint of embarrassment. Quickly, he retrieved his clothing from the space button on his uniform. His movements were practiced and graceful, as if this wasn't his first time.
The subtle sound of fabric rubbing against each other reached Rosie's ears, and her heartbeat gradually calmed down. A moment later, Mike's voice rang out again: "Okay, you can open your eyes now."
Rosie took a deep breath and turned around carefully.
Mike had changed into a neat blue military uniform, the fine fabric outlining his tall figure. He wore a pair of shiny white combat boots, which formed a sharp contrast with the soft white sand.
In the sunlight, Mike was blond and blue-eyed, remarkably handsome. His blond hair shone in the sunlight, like flowing gold. His blue eyes were as deep as the sea, and Rosie couldn't help but stare at them a few more times.
"Why did you bring me here?" Rosie asked stiffly. She couldn't be kind to the man who had brought her into this strange world.
Mike didn't answer directly, but said "Wait a minute." He began to take out various items from the space button: beach chairs, umbrellas, barbecue grills, and a series of seasoning bottles.
Rosie stared at the condiment bottles, a flicker of surprise in her eyes. They looked familiar, likely products from the Spirit Mirror Hotel. Seeing this, she roughly guessed what Mike was up to.
With a sneer in her heart, Luo Xi thought to herself: Bringing her here and then hypocritically trying to please her with these things is really like giving her a slap in the face and then giving her a sweet date.
Admiral Mike deftly set up the grill and flicked his finger, sending a stream of water rising from the sea. Under his precise control, the water swept up a variety of seafood and dropped them precisely into the large tank that had been prepared.
Rosie watched this scene, inwardly marveling at Mike's prowess. She saw a dazzling array of creatures swimming in the tank: plump lobsters, tender scallops, colorful tropical fish, and even enormous crabs. The seafood seemed to offer themselves willingly, making her mouth water.
Mike picked out a bright red fish from the tank, its scales gleaming with an alluring sheen in the sun. He then carefully took out an abalone the size of a washbasin and placed it on the grill.
As the ingredients were placed on the grill, Mike began to skillfully mix the seasonings. He took out various spices and sauces from the space button, sprinkled them on the fish with skillful movements, and brushed the abalone with a special sauce.
Soon, an alluring aroma filled the air. The fish's skin gradually turned golden and crispy, while the abalone's flesh gradually became tender and juicy. The aroma wafted on the sea breeze, making everyone salivate.
Rosie's stomach growled uncontrollably, making a gurgling sound. She felt embarrassed, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she subconsciously pressed her hand against her stomach, hoping to suppress the inappropriate sound.
Rosie glanced at Admiral Mike casually and saw that he was concentrating on grilling the fish and didn't seem to notice her embarrassment. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and her tense shoulders relaxed a little.
However, Admiral Mike, who was flipping the fish, had a subtle smile on his face. He was keenly aware of Rosie's every subtle reaction, but chose to remain silent.
The aroma of grilled fish grew stronger, and Admiral Mike carefully transferred the golden and crispy fish meat to a delicate porcelain plate. He skillfully cut the fish into small pieces, each cut just right, making it easy to eat without losing the integrity of the fish.
"Your Excellency, please enjoy your meal." Admiral Mike handed the plate full of fish to Rosie with a hint of respect in his tone.
Luo Xi's heart was already aroused by the tempting aroma. As a typical Chinese stomach, she was almost tormented by the raw food here.
However, she couldn't give up easily.
"I don't need your fake kindness." Luo Xi said coldly, her eyes casually sweeping over the grilled fish that exuded an enticing aroma.
Admiral Mike observed her little movements clearly, but remained calm: "Your Excellency, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the child in your belly. Eat well so that you can successfully give birth to your precious offspring."
Luo Xi complained in her heart, do you even need to tell me that?
She would never punish herself for other people's mistakes.
It is not noble to refuse to eat the food given by the enemy.
But it's really stupid.
What she should do now is to use the enemy to take care of herself and the baby in her belly, and then find a way to escape.
Luo Xi took the plate, her expression still cold. She reached out and picked up a piece of roasted fish with a fork.
The moment she put the fish into her mouth, a rich aroma exploded in her mouth. The fish was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the seasoning was just right. Rosie, who hadn't tasted cooked food in a while, couldn't help but squint her eyes slightly.
