Kathleen felt moved, but she was also slightly embarrassed to see Charlie filling the small plate in front of her with a mountain of food. She rarely had the chance to share a meal with a man, so this was her first time being taken care of by someone of the opposite sex.
She nodded shyly and said, "Mr. Wade, you don't have t o keep filling my plate. You still haven't eaten a bite..."
Charlie grinned, "There's no hurry. If I use my cutleries now, I won't be able to help fill your plates anymore!"
He took a piece of goose meat with skin as he said that. "Eating the goose meat with its skin tastes the best! You really should try it!"
Kathleen nodded, and carefully blew some air on the meat before putting it in her mouth. She made sure the food wasn't burning her lips before putting it in her mouth. Then, she started chewing slowly.
Kathleen’s eyes widened in surprise at the first taste. A rich aroma filled her mouth and taste buds. The strong flavor, coming from a stew simmered in a wood -fired iron pot for a long time, was something she had never tasted in the United States. It shocked her.
After that, she couldn't wait anymore and quickly tasted the pork belly. The way the tender meat melted in her mouth was another whole new experience. It
changed her perception of eating pork completely.
However, what surprised her the most was the stewed bean. She couldn't imagine how crisp beans could become so soft and chewy inside the stew. It was so delicious, it almost made her cry.
Charlie didn't expect Kylie, who came from overseas, t o enjoy the stew so much. He quickly called the cook over and added a corn dish to the table.
The simple corn dish blew Kathleen's mind away, and made her praise the food nonstop.
Charlie served Kathleen warmly as she enjoyed the meal. He glanced at the time, and soon noticed it was already half-past seven at night. There were curtains i n the room, but he could see that the sky was getting darker outside.
The best time for Charlie to execute his plan against the six-star martial artist in the yard was inching close.
