Fire of Life
"That's not how you roast meat. Look at you; you've burnt it." As Zhou Wen was in thought, he was jolted awake by a woman's voice.
Looking up, he saw that it was Li Weiyang sitting down on a chair beside him. The girls from before had already gone elsewhere to play with Li Xuan and company, leaving him and Li Weiyang behind.
"Give it to me." Li Weiyang extended her hand in front of Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen was engrossed in his thoughts and forgot that he was still holding a skewer. The meat had been roasted for too long and the outside was charred black.
Zhou Wen handed the skewers to Li Weiyang in embarrassment. Li Weiyang placed the charred meat to the side and took a few fresh skewers before placing them over the charcoal fire.
