“What’s the matter?” Jasper sensed her strange behavior. “Do you not want to?”


    “To be honest, I’m feeling very hesitant about it. I really want to meet them, but I’m also scared of the oue,” Ste said frankly.


    “You’ll have to meet them eventually,” Jasper said.


    She could tell that he wanted her to meet them.


    Since he looked so calm, did it mean that they had a good rtionship in the past too?


    Ste smiled and repeated what he said, “Yes, we’ll have to meet eventually.”


    “What are you going to do with those fishes over there?” Jasper changed the topic.


    Ste looked at the marinated fish. “I’m going to grill it on an iron te. I’ve marinated all of them. It should be very tender. Give me a minute.”


    She went to her bag and found a round iron te.


    “This could be used as a hot iron te. I tried to cook with it when I was at home alone and it was not bad. Put this on the stone first and it will be hot in a while,” Ste exined. She washed the iron te and ced it on the stone.


    She washed the marinated fish, brushed a little oil on the iron te, and put the fish slices on it.


    The fillet turned white after a while and she added some seasoning to it. She picked up a slice of it and put it in Jasper’s bowl. “Have a try?”


    “It looks like grilling fish on a foil; not bad,” Jasper took a bite and nodded. “It tastes good.”


    Ste smiled and said, “I like to eat fish. When I was at home, I would usually cook fish like this, and I could eat a carp all by myself.”


    “Sandro also likes to eat fish, just like you.”


    “I’ll have to get rid of the bones then. By the way, there’s a fish called Halibut. It tastes fresh and is nutritious. It is very delicious to cook in soup or with tofu,” Ste suggested.


    Jasper smiled. “Sandro likes this fish the most too. He could eat three on his own.”


    “I see” Ste responded. She didn’t know why, but her heart was filled with warmth when Jasper said those words.


    She continued cooking the fish.


    Jasper looked into the pot. “The chicken soup should be ready. If we continue boiling it, there will be no soup left.”


    “Okay, I’ll do it,” Ste said.


    “Let me do it. Be careful; it’s hot,” Jasper took her bowl, filled it, and handed it to her.


    Ste saw a car driving over. “Someone ising.”


    Jasper looked over and saw quite a few carsing. There were three of them. “Do a lot of peoplee here often?”


    “Yes. I think so.I was with my friends thest time I came here,” Ste said.


    The car stopped, and an American man with blonde hair got out of the car. He greeted Ste, “Ste, you’re here. What a coincidence.”


    “Ah, Benedict, have you had dinner yet?” Ste asked.


    Benedict shook his head. “We’ve been driving for two hours, so we haven’t eaten yet. But we brought a lot of barbecue ingredients, so there’s no issue.”


    Benedict’s gazended on Jasper’s face. “Boyfriend?”


    “Yes, that’s right,” Ste admitted it.


    “We’ll get back to work first and talkter,” Benedict said. He then led the other seven people to set up tents on the other side and start some fire.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    “He was my ssmate. Originally, he studied psychology. After his studies, he went home and started apany. He dabbles in the red wine industry and it’s doing great,” Ste said to Jasper.


    “Mm,” Jasper replied.


    He looked at Ste deeply. In fact, he didn’t like other peopleing over and ruining their personal time together. “Next time, we have to find a better spot.”


    Ste nodded and ate the chicken in her bowl.


    Benedict walked over and said to Ste and Jasper, “They asked me to invite you guys over.”


    Ste thought of thest time when she came with Benedict and his friends. Although the people this time were different, they were also Benedict’s friends. “Sure, I have a lot of grilled fish here. They could have some too.”


    Ste handed 16 skewers of grilled fish over. Benedict epted and distributed them to his friends.


    Benedict came over again and looked at Ste’s pot. “You even brought a pot with you. It smells so good. Is it chicken? You even brought chicken here.”


    Jasper caught the hint in Benedict’s words and said, “Do you have bowls? Come and get a bowl of this. But there’s eight of you and it might not be enough. This chicken is not very big.”


    “It should be enough. I have disposable bowls. I’ll let them eat something to ease their hunger, and then we’ll start the barbecueter. Let’s eat together,” Benedict said, waving his hand to his friends.


    There was not much left in the pot afterthey all filled up a bowl.


    Jasper looked at Ste. “Did you have enough?”


    “It’s alright. We’ll be having barbecueter. What about you? Are you full?” Ste asked.


    “I have eaten a lot of fish. Besides, there are still some fish slices,” As Jasper finished speaking, Benedict appeared behind them again. “Could we have a taste of that fish slice of yours? It smells so good.”


    “Oh,” Ste responded casually. Benedict’s friends lined up once again, but there were not many slices left. They only had a few for themselves.


    Jasper and Ste had no food again.


    Ste looked at the grilled fish. Fortunately, there were still a couple left.


    Benedict’s friends didn’t ask this time and directly took all of them away.


    Ste was speechless.


    Jasper looked at Ste and said, “I’m going to clean and pack up, then I’ll take you somewhere.”


    “Okay, let me clean up. I’m good at this,” said Ste. She took the pot and went to theke to wash it.


    Jasper did not stop her and he went over to dismantle the tent.


    “Are you leaving now?” Benedict asked.


    Jasper nodded. “We have to go somewhere else tonight.”


    “In that case, could you leave this for us? It’s not convenient for us since we have guys and girls. It’ll be so much more convenient if we have this cover,” Benedict said.


    “Sorry, but I’m afraid it’s not going to be convenient for us as we’ll need it when we go somewhere else next time,” Jasper directly refused.


    “Oh,” Benedict looked visibly upset.


    He watched as Ste washed the bowls and pot and said, “Ste, could you lend us this pot?”


    “Uhm, we still need them tomorrow,” Jasper refused for Ste.


    Benedict was speechless.


    “What about the fishing tools? You won’t be fishing tomorrow, will you?” Benedict asked.


    “We are fishing tomorrow, I’m sorry,” Jasper refused.


    “You don’t want the fish anymore, right? I think that there’s arge carp in the water tank,” Benedict asked.


    “Well, I could give that to you. Take it,” Jasper said. Then, Benedict grabbed the fish in the water tank and walked toward his friends.


    Jasper tidied their things up with Ste’s help. Finally, when Jasper went to dismantle the trap in theke, he found a surprise in it. “Ste, take the water tank.”


    Ste immediately took the water tank over.
