Chapter 15: Eating Bugs
The business of this dark restaurant is particularly booming. The place of several hundred square meters is packed with seats. On each table, there are four plates of dishes, which can no longer be regarded as dishes...
There was a plate of locusts, a plate of centipedes, a plate of scorpions, and in another plate, there were black balls one after another. I don’t know what they were.
I have been most afraid of bugs since I was a child. If I eat these, I will definitely have nightmares all night long! Looking at the plates of bugs in a daze, I feel like crying...
Yuwei looked at me and said coldly: "Why can't I eat? Why did I bring you here if I can't eat?"
"Miss Zhang, can you tell me first, what is this black ball?"
"Pig eyes."
Xin said: Living conditions are so good now, and people in the city eat such weird things.
Yuwei came to the restaurant and didn't eat a bite. She just sat opposite and stared at me.
I knew she was going to watch me and eat all this. If I didn't eat it, the consequences would be serious!
I asked carefully: "Miss Zhang, I can barely eat those pig eyes, but I have been afraid of bugs since I was a child. Can I not eat those three plates of bugs?"
Yuwei grabbed a plate and smashed it to pieces, but the broken plate was still in her hand, and the sharp porcelain shard instantly cut her finger!
Surprised looks came from all around. They must have thought that they were here to smash up the store...
I stood up and walked to her to see how her hand was injured, but she used the porcelain piece in her hand to scratch in front of me, and a bloodstain quickly appeared on my left chest.
The waiter who didn't know what was going on asked softly: "You two? Who are you?"
I covered my chest and said, "It's okay. We'll pay for the broken plates."
The waiter left with a confused look on his face. Before leaving, he muttered "mental illness..."
I ignored my injury and quickly asked Yuwei, "Is your hand okay?"
Yuwei sucked the blood on her fingers. "Eat all these!"
I returned to the table and thought: If I had known this, I shouldn't have bargained with her just now.
Looking at her bleeding fingers, I don't know when I started to feel sorry for this girl who hurt me and loved me at the same time.
I picked up a handful of locusts and stuffed them into my mouth without even looking at them. Then I picked up a black centipede and ate it one bite at a time.
Opposite me, Yuwei leaned on the chair and lit a cigarette. The blood flowing from her fingers dyed the cigarette red. This almost sickly coolness made me unconsciously think of her as a little bird at night.
She looked a little crazy looking at her.
But then, there was a sudden jolt. This was a dangerous signal. He might have thoughts about Yuwei that he shouldn't have...
I continued to eat the bugs hungrily, and soon, I had eaten all the bugs on the plate. I grabbed the last centipede and said, "Miss Zhang, do you want to try it? It tastes great!"
"It tastes great?"
I said with an intoxicated look on my face: "It's delicious on earth!"
Yuwei called the waiter and gave some instructions. After a while, the waiter brought out four more plates, one plate of cockroaches, one plate of earthworms, one plate of mealworms, and the last plate turned out to be dung beetles!
I thought to myself: Why are you talking about this? You are really mean-spirited.
I said with a bitter look on my face: "Can we eat it next time? Whatever you do must be done in moderation. Look at me, I'm full."
After saying that, I lifted up my shirt and let her see my slightly bulging belly.
"It's okay if you don't want to eat. Just extend your hand."
I stretched out my hand numbly, Yuwei looked at me indifferently, and poked the cigarette butt in my hand directly into the palm of my hand.
A searing pain came, like hundreds of steel needles piercing the palm of my hand at the same time. My body couldn't stop shaking, and cold sweat dropped from my head...
I didn't struggle because I knew that if I pulled my hand now, the consequences might be more serious.
Until the cigarette butt was slowly extinguished, Yu Wei still pressed the cigarette butt down hard. The surrounding diners turned their heads and looked at this scene in surprise...
Yuwei ignored the strange looks around her. She opened her wristband, threw a wad of money on the table, lit up a cigarette again, and left the restaurant first.
She didn't eat anything during the whole lunch, so I picked up the cigarette butt that had stuck to the palm of my hand with my mouth, lit it again, and took a puff, "It feels good."
I stood up and hurried out to chase Yuwei. I swear, I never want to do it again in this life!
After leaving the restaurant, Yuwei saw me holding her cigarette butt in my mouth and asked softly: "Do you like smoking so much?"
"I've never smoked, but this smoke is different. It has the smell of barbecue, the scent of a beautiful woman's blood, and a light body fragrance. It's really intoxicating."
Yuwei handed me the half-smoked cigarette in her hand and motioned for me to continue.
I took the cigarette and took another puff, "Thank you, Miss Zhang, for the gift. I am very grateful."
Perhaps over time, I have gradually become familiar with Yuwei, and I don’t know when I started to talk nonsense with her, but the pain in my palms always reminds me to keep a distance from this cold and charming queen.
Yuwei was the first to get into the car, but as soon as she sat on the driver's seat, her expression changed, and she seemed to be in special pain. She also sat in the seat, trembling uncontrollably.
I stood at the door of the car and asked, "Miss Zhang, what's wrong with you?"
Yuwei pointed to the bag beside her and said: "There is medicine in the bag, hurry!"
I opened her wristband, and inside besides a wad of banknotes, there was only a 5 ml syringe. The syringe was filled with a transparent liquid. I didn't know what kind of medicine it was.
"Is this it? How much to inject?"
Yuwei said painfully: "Inject half of it."
I tied her arm with a tourniquet, but I had never given an injection, and I tried several times without success.
Yuwei grabbed the syringe and without looking, plunged it into her arm. When the liquid entered her body, she seemed relieved and her body stopped shaking.
After injecting half of the medicine, she pulled out the syringe and the blood slowly flowed down the needle hole.
I took out a few cotton swabs to stop her bleeding, but she stared at me with blood-red eyes and raised the syringe in her hand towards me!
I know that if I get closer, the sharp needle point will pierce my chest mercilessly.
I carefully pressed the cotton swab onto her arm, moving very slowly.
Yuwei angrily threw the syringe out of the car, knocked it away, and pressed the cotton swab on her arm, "You drive." After saying that, she got out of the car and sat in the passenger seat.
"Did you inject morphine?"
Yuwei didn't look at me, but just sternly said: "You don't have to worry about it! Drive."
