“I’ll have a bite or two since we’re already here.” Tristan strode in. I’m here to accompany Sophie, anyway.

Barney rose to greet Tristan as the latter approached, leaving Arius fuming behind.

Very uncool of them to come at me one at a time! How could they treat me like this?

“What’s wrong?” Sophie was amused at the sight of him sulking again. “Since you know you are no match for him, why do you always pick a fight with him?”

Although they were both men with brains and poise, it was a different story when they met; they would become exceptionally childish.

“How am I picking a fight with him? I went through all this trouble to prepare a BBQ for you guys, and isn’t it too much of him to say such a thing? Tell me the truth instead of covering for him because he’s your boyfriend.”

Sophie was rendered speechless.

“All right, don’t get all worked up. Let’s have some BBQ! It’s a good day for grilled meat as it’s chilly.”

“Fine. For your sake, I’ll let this slide.”

I cannot hold a grudge against Tristan. Besides, it would be no use, as none of them would take my side. Since there is an opportunity to save face, I will take it.

The foursome sat huddled around the grill and watched their lamb cook. It was Barney’s first time having a meal like that, and he was excited.

“Really, Chanaean food is delicious. No matter what ingredients get into your hands, you have a way to turn it into a feast.”

Having come from Anglandur, he was sick of the fast food he was accustomed to.

“Don’t worry, Dr. Smith. We won’t let you starve.”

Arius, too, had grown tired of fast food in Anglandur.

I must taste every delicious item Chanaea has to offer on this trip. Otherwise, I would be doing my past self, living on fast food in Anglandur, a severe disservice.
