Ning Chuxia nodded and smiled, "Brother Wu likes you a lot. It's your luck to have met Brother Wu. Take a shower first, then we can go eat."

Mi Qingying thought Ning Chuxia was referring to the precious robe Jiang Wu had given her, and gently bit her lower lip.

Her mind raced through the events that had transpired since her encounter with Jiang Wu earlier that day.

Seeing the complicated look in her eyes as she stood there motionless, Ning Chuxia asked softly, "What's wrong? Is there anything else you're wondering about?"

Mi Qingying snapped out of her daze, shook her head, and said, "No, I'll wash it myself, thank you."

Ning Chuxia smiled and said, "From now on, we're all sisters, so don't be so polite. You've lived in Tongcheng for so long, you must have suffered a lot. Just enjoy life from now on."

After saying that, Ning Chuxia left the tent.

Mi Qingying stood there blankly for a long time before murmuring to herself, "Enjoying life, sister?"

Then, she looked at the clear hot water in the large wooden tub.

A woman's natural love of cleanliness made her walk over and dip her hand into the hot water.

Feeling the comfortable sensation of her skin coming into contact with hot water, Mi Qingying unconsciously revealed a smile.

Then, she looked at the hairdryer next to her and the clean clothes, her expression complicated.

Half an hour later, Mi Qingying, who had washed up and changed her clothes, walked out of the tent.

The two blood slaves waiting outside glanced at Mi Qingying with envy and said respectfully, "Madam Mi, the meal is ready and is in the tent next door. We will take you there."

Upon hearing the title "Madam Mi," Mi Qingying understood completely that they all regarded her as the leader's woman.

While she was still in a daze, Ning Chuxia walked over, put her arm around Mi Qingying's arm, and said with a smile, "Little Mi, you look even more beautiful after washing up. Come on, I'll go with you to get something to eat. Brother Wu told me to treat you well."

Mi Qingying glanced subconsciously at the two pretty girls in white uniforms.

Their eyes were filled with envy and respect.

Mi Qingying turned around and whispered to Ning Chuxia, "I am not the leader's woman."

Ning Chuxia smiled and said, "Brother Wu gave you that robe and asked me, his woman, to treat you properly instead of just sending a subordinate to receive you. This already shows his sincerity. Brother Wu is a straightforward person and not very good at pursuing girls. So, if you are willing to accept Brother Wu someday, just take the initiative to express it."

Ning Chuxia glanced at Mi Qingying with envy and continued softly, "Little Mi, I really envy you for being able to win over Brother Wu before the apocalypse."

Mi Qingying was stunned.

Now she completely understood why Jiang Wu, as the leader of such a powerful force, treated her so well.

So that's the reason.

Mi Qingying suddenly remembered the scene of Jiang Wu carrying her as they escaped from the mine.

I also remembered how he cared about my fear of heights when he was on the back of the giant golden bird.

Taking a deep breath to suppress the pounding in her heart, Mi Qingying subconsciously touched the precious robe she was wearing.

Ning Chuxia smiled and said, "Let's go get something to eat. I can hear your stomach growling. You must be starving."

Mi Qingying gave a soft "hmm".

Stepping into the tent not far away, Mi Qingying felt a sudden burst of light before her eyes.

The space inside the tent was much more spacious than she had imagined, and although the furnishings were simple, they exuded a warm atmosphere.

A solid wood table was placed steadily in the center, its surface wiped spotless and gleaming with a warm luster.

Five dishes and several different drinks were neatly arranged on the table. The steaming food emitted an enticing aroma, which rose and instantly filled the entire tent.

Mi Qingying's gaze was instantly drawn to the food on the table.

Braised pork belly, stir-fried cured pork with pickled chili peppers, stir-fried bean sprouts, mushroom and sliced ​​pork soup, and a plate of green wild vegetables I've never seen before.

Seeing these dishes, Mi Qingying couldn't help but swallow, her throat bobbing involuntarily.

In recent months, she has only been able to drink some thin porridge and some non-toxic wild vegetables to barely fill her stomach each day.

It's hard enough to eat a bowl of firm white rice, let alone these dishes.

She didn't even know when the last time she ate meat was.

But now, there are three large portions of meat here.

The brightly colored, marbled cured pork, in particular, kept catching her eye.

Long periods of hunger had made her stomach accustomed to emptiness. Now, faced with this table full of delicious food, Mi Qingying's stomach was the first to react, making a soft gurgling sound.

Ning Chuxia pulled Mi Qingying to sit down at the table, picked up a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Mi Qingying, smiling as she said, "Eat up, this meat is from evolved beasts, it's very nourishing. You're a bit too thin right now, you need to eat more."

Seeing that she hesitated to take the chopsticks, Ning Chuxia smiled and comforted her, "Don't be shy, we have plenty of supplies, and besides, we are people close to the leader."

Mi Qingying stared blankly at Ning Chuxia for a moment, then picked up her chopsticks with trembling hands.

Ning Chuxia picked up another pair of chopsticks and put a piece of braised pork into Mi Qingying's bowl. She smiled and said, "Try this. It's meat from a level three evolved beast. It tastes especially good because level three evolved beasts are very difficult to kill. It's almost impossible for ordinary people to eat this kind of meat."

Mi Qingying took a deep breath, carefully picked up the piece of braised pork, and took a bite.

Instantly, the soft, sweet, and savory texture exploded in my mouth, and the rich aroma of meat filled the air.

She chewed gently, and then an unprecedented deliciousness exploded in her mouth, as if every cell was cheering and jumping wildly.

Exhaustion and hunger seemed to vanish in that instant, allowing her to truly experience a long-lost sense of happiness.

It gradually warmed her originally cold and numb heart.

This also quietly gave her a glimmer of hope for the future.

On the other side.

Inside a large military tent.

After Jiang Wu finished explaining the situation inside, he leaned back in his chair and fiddled with the level-four energy crystal.

Meanwhile, he leisurely watched as Zi Ling and the others pondered and discussed how to deal with the mutated zombies and the super fat pig that appeared to be level four.

This is what he enjoys most about being a leader.

As long as he explains his ideas, there will naturally be intelligent people willing to serve him.

Jiang Wu was a little envious of the large, mutated pig that appeared to be a level four mutant.

If it is indeed level four, the energy gel inside could make him a level four evolver.

Those thousands of tons of flesh and blood were enough to allow the entire Restoration Army and the Glorious Army to replenish their bodies.

Even now, so long into the apocalypse, this is the first time Jiang Wu has ever seen something that resembles a level four mutated beast.

Even in Donghu, such a large lake, Li Qingxuan had never seen a trace of a level four evolved beast.

It's easy to imagine how rare a level four mutated beast is.

It was originally thought that this kind of giant beast probably only existed in the ocean, making it too difficult to hunt.

But to my surprise, such a huge head is now placed in front of me.

We must find a way to take it completely, no matter what!
