When it comes to cooking, Feng Yi surely considers himself an expert. Even though he didn't usually fuss over barbecuing and mostly spent his time hustling for survival, he did have a deep study into food once. He believed that cuisine without salt was hard to swallow. But with age, he didn't care much about gourmet food, but he still maintained this skill.

Especially in terms of ingredients and heat control, Feng Yi preferred using original charcoal fire for processing, a killer culinary technique taught to him by Grandfather Lasso during his time in the 103rd Colonial Planet. Despite the heavy snow outside now, the snowfall couldn't extinguish the fiery passion of a housewife-like man.

Braving the cold wind, Feng Yi briskly prepared all the ingredients. Finding that he was a bit rusty due to lack of practice, he had no choice but to rely on his accumulated experience. After twenty minutes of high-speed cooking and barbecuing, a delicious aroma quickly filled the small tent.

Sheng Qiangwei didn't rest long before coming out. She wanted to see what Feng Yi was cooking. However, she was completely dumbfounded by his techniques. Though Feng Yi's actions were fluid and his meals tasted tantalizing, she couldn't help but notice they were just beginner-level. In particular, the two pieces of meat on the charcoal fire were already showing signs of charring...

Even so, Sheng Qiangwei was elated. Today, Feng Yi cooked a gourmet meal for her for the first time. She found it hard to believe that this seemingly indifferent man would cook for her. She was beyond happy and immensely adored this younger brother. Her soft lips lightly bit in happiness, the joy evident on her face.

Feng Yi was so engrossed in cooking that he didn't have time to pay attention to the spectator next to him. He was carefully controlling the heat, fearing that a small mishap could ruin the food.

According to Grandfather Lasso, the technique of charcoal grilling had been virtually extinct by the 25th century. He learned it during his travels around the world. Upon thinking of Lasso, Feng Yi paused slightly.

However, his mood quickly improved. On his way back to the Capital Planet, President Brian had already informed him through Heavenly Communication of a precious secret: Lasso would be fine. However, it might take a long time. This was a challenge that was currently technically unbeatable. Firstly, the technology to rapidly reactivate brain cells in a dormant state was still not stable. Secondly, and most importantly, Lasso himself was very weak, and they dared not take any risks now.

While Feng Yi was deep in thought about the issue concerning Lasso, his hands didn't stop working. After a few more minutes, the food was ready. He swiftly took out tables, chairs, bowls, and chopsticks from the Space Crystal. These things were indispensable when travelling.

The main course for tonight was charcoal-grilled barbecue. As for the cooking and roasting, they would have to wait. Seeing Feng Yi's confident manner, Sheng Qiangwei's appetite was whetted, especially for the charcoal-grilled skewers. The smell alone made her mouth water.

However, a girl always has to maintain her basic image, and this was something Sheng Qiangwei consistently upheld. Once the food was on the table, already drooling from the smell, she had some difficulty restraining herself. She hadn't eaten a single bite since the afternoon, and walking through the freezing temperatures of the Shadow District had burned more calories than the average person.

Feng Yi didn't delay and immediately offered Sheng Qiangwei a skewer, indicating for her to open her mouth. However, this resulted in a light flick on the forehead, indicating she'd rather eat herself.

Sheng Qiangwei felt a mix of affection and resentment. Biting her soft lips, a playful smile appeared on her face. She felt delighted and flirted with Feng Yi, but also acted bashfully. She then gave him soft punches in jest, complaining, "You're terrible, you're terrible! I'm starving and you still tease me."

As she punched him, Feng Yi effortlessly embraced her. She became as still as a kitten, truly exemplifying the saying that 'women are like cats.' Feng Yi gained first-hand experience of what a provocative kitten she was.

This time, he didn't dare to tease her anymore and personally fed her a piece of meat.

Sheng Qiangwei also knew that hunger made everything taste better. But as she chewed, she realized that the barbecue Feng Yi made had a magical taste. It was soft and tender, oily but not greasy, spicy and delicious. It was simply wonderful.

Everyone knows that modern people advocate for healthy food, so many old recipes were discontinued. A lot of dishes were only heard in stories, never tasted. But after this meal, she could barely resist the temptation of gourmet food, and she started to chew slowly, momentarily escaping from Feng Yi's embrace…

This is so delicious, that's delicious too, and that one's even more so. She had never tasted food as delicious in her entire life. If dishes like the Desert Chicken and the Flower Palm Spotted Snail could be described as delightful, then Feng Yi's barbecue was definitely a delicacy. Sheng Qiangwei asked while eating, "What are these dishes called?"

Feng Yi's explanations were varied, including lamb skewers, beef skewers, pork heart tubes, and offal. He reminded her that these were just some random stuff and that eating them only occasionally was enough. Eating them regularly could be tiring, and eating excessive rich food wasn't healthy, plus it could lead to diarrhea.

As he was talking, Sheng Qiangwei stuffed a large lamb chop into Feng Yi's mouth. He quickly took out a bottle of beer and a bottle of beverage. His mouth full of food, he asked her which one she wanted to drink. This made Sheng Qiangwei laugh heartily...

The meal lasted for about half an hour. When they opened the tent flap, they could clearly see the snowflakes falling outside. It felt like they were in a fairy tale world. If there was a Christmas tree outside the tent and a few snowmen, it would be even more romantic. Unfortunately, Feng Yi's Space Crystal didn't contain these things.

Perhaps this was a small compensation for Sheng Qiangwei? After this, he couldn't possibly bring himself to break up with her. But staring them in the face was another problem; how would the duo resolve their tangled emotions as the adventurous journey of the brave continues? They couldn't just disappear without a trace.

Pondering was futile; the immediate concern was how to get through the night. Although the temperature in the tent wasn't a concern thanks to the intelligent insulation, Feng Yi's problem at the moment wasn't that, but how to suppress the raging lust in his heart. He didn't know why, but the normally tough-tongued girl seemed softer the more he saw her. Even Sir Feng was having a hard time resisting this temptation.

Soon, the lights gradually dimmed...

The once tranquil atmosphere became subtly tense to the point where Feng Yi's heart began to fluctuate. As a man, it was hard to resist at such moments. He could even hear Sheng Qiangwei's suddenly quickened heartbeat...
