Mei Na couldn't handle anything too spicy; she nearly choked after just one taste.
Bor didn't hesitate to offer her a cup of water, but Kilton immediately snatched it away, watching him like a hawk.
Mei Na's eyes twinkled with a smile. "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Kilton put a hand to his forehead. 'Looks like there's no stopping them now.'
The bowls everyone held were made from the bamboo that had grown nearby.
Everyone had about five or six crayfish in their bowls.
The Westerners didn't know how to eat them, but the people from Hua Country were all pros, each one slurping them up more expertly than the next.
Qin Shen offered to peel the crayfish for Jiang Si, but she refused. "You have to peel your own crayfish. It's more satisfying that way."
As Jiang Si picked up a crayfish, several pairs of eyes turned to her in unison.
Kilton was one of them. In truth, he had no idea how to eat crayfish and was waiting to learn from Jiang Si.
