Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 993

The man did not reply and merely looked outside the villa with a blank expression.

I glanced at him and said with a smile, "I tried it once when I was very young. It was with a friend of mine who later passed away. She was a very brave person who dared to eat anything. Once after we caught the dragonflies, she said that her classmates told her that dragonflies tasted especially good after roasting. She wanted to give it a try, so she showed off her cooking skills to me."

I continued after a pause, "At first, I refused to eat it, but when I saw how much she enjoyed eating it and how she kept tempting me, I took a bite out of curiosity. It was only then did I know that she wasn’t lying. It was actually very good."

Seeing the man's pupils sink as though he was reminiscing something after hearing what I said, I took the opportunity to say, "Can I go out and catch the dragonflies? If you're worried that I’ll run, then you can catch them with me."

The man was a little hesitant. I pursed my lips and continued, "Please don't think too much. I just suddenly want to eat roasted dragonflies. Besides, I'm not familiar with this place. With you by my side, how

could I possibly escape?”

After hearing what I said, the man thought about it and agreed.

I smiled. "Thank you."

Later, I asked him his name and he told me that his name was Stephan.

After going outside with Stephan, he offered to make a handheld net for me to catch the dragonflies.

I thanked him, took the handheld net, and started catching dragonflies.

After a few minutes, I saw Stephan holding another handheld net. He started catching dragonflies with m e. I could not help but smile. "You want to eat them too?"

He merely nodded. I did not say anything else and continued to catch dragonflies with him.

Soon, the two of us caught a bunch of dragonflies. Seeing that there was almost enough for us, we returned to the villa.

As I carried the basket into the kitchen, the smile on m y face gradually disappeared.

I had never eaten insects like this, but I heard that the locals here did. Seeing Stephan's reaction now, I was starting to believe that it was true.

Going off the top of my head, I finished roasting these dragonflies in no time.
