The car drove smoothly on the empty street, and the atmosphere between the two was relaxed and pleasant. Chen Xiaoru sank into the soft seat, exhaled softly, and said with a bit of fatigue:

"I'm really exhausted today. It would be a shame if I don't eat something later."

While Zhou Yuxuan was driving intently, he glanced at Chen Xiaoru beside him tenderly from the corner of his eye, his tone full of doting:

"Okay, you can eat as much as you want. I'll make it for you. I'll make whatever you want."

"You've been busy all day, do you still have the energy to cook? Why don't we keep it simple and have some hot pot? It's convenient and delicious."

Chen Xiaoru suggested, with a hint of mischief and concern for Zhou Yuxuan in her tone.

"Xiao Ru, you just killed so many zombies, you even saw their brains, and now you're still thinking about eating hot pot. You're such a greedy little cat, you have a really big heart."

Zhou Yuxuan teased her deliberately, with a hint of teasing and love in his tone.

"What can't you eat? I have a big appetite. I'll eat more delicious food than anyone else! I'll show you how good I am. Okay, you just focus on driving. I'll take a break and replenish my energy so that we can eat more delicious food later."

After Chen Xiaoru finished speaking, she gently closed her eyes, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she was savoring the deliciousness of the hot pot.

"Yes, my future wife, I promise to complete the task."

Zhou Yuxuan responded softly, with a gentle smile on his lips. The car became quiet, with only the slight roar of the engine. Chen Xiaoru leaned back in the seat, closed her eyes and rested. The sunlight shone through the car window onto her face, giving her a gentle halo, making her look particularly peaceful and beautiful.

As night fell, the two returned home, and the lights were already on. Chen Xiaoru took out some fresh vegetables from her space, dug out the hot pot base and special pots, and finally, thoughtfully took out two sets of Zhou Yuxuan's clothes.

"Zhou Yuxuan, I'll leave it to you. I'm going to take a shower. Put these things away and go take a shower too!"

Chen Xiaoru stuffed everything into Zhou Yuxuan's hands, with a hint of fatigue in her voice.

"Well, give it all to me! Go wash it."

Zhou Yuxuan took the things and responded softly, looking at Chen Xiaoru gently.

Seeing that he agreed, Chen Xiaoru turned and walked towards the bathroom in the master bedroom. There were two bathrooms in the house. She was used to using the one in the master bedroom, and the other one was next to the kitchen.

She walked into the bathroom and gently closed the door behind her with a slight click, blocking out all the noise from the outside world. She took off her clothes one by one and casually placed them on the shelf beside her.

Hot water poured down from the shower head, and the warm water slid down her body, making a gurgling sound, like a soft melody, soothing her tired body and mind.

"It feels so comfortable..." Chen Xiaoru closed her eyes, tilted her head back, let the water wash over her cheeks, and let out a sigh of satisfaction.

The warm steam in the bathroom brought her back to the thrilling scene that day. She couldn't help but think of Zhou Yuxuan brandishing his weapon and swiftly slashing the zombies.

He looks gentle and polite on weekdays, but I didn't expect that he can be quite fierce when he fights... Chen Xiaoru muttered to herself, how did he know where I was yesterday?

A question surfaced in her mind. Could it be that... he was reborn? That's why he knew where she was? The more Chen Xiaoru thought about it, the more she felt this was a very real possibility.

According to the original owner's memory, Zhou Yuxuan's personality was not like this. During their relationship, not to mention being intimate, at least he would never initiate a kiss.

But from yesterday to today, he has acted like a completely different person, like two completely different people. Do you want to give him a try?

A cunning thought flashed through Chen Xiaoru's mind, but she quickly dismissed it. "Never mind, let it be! I guess he's also doubting my identity now!"

Meanwhile, Zhou Yuxuan placed the things Chen Xiaoru had brought out in the kitchen, grabbed his change of clothes, and went into the bathroom. After all, his body was stained with the filth splashed from killing zombies, and there was an unpleasant smell of sweat, which made him feel uncomfortable.

He walked into the bathroom and gently closed the door, shutting out the outside noise. He quickly stripped off his clothes and turned on the shower. Hot water instantly poured down, washing over his muscular body with a gurgling sound. He closed his eyes, feeling the comfort of the hot water, and quickly washed himself clean.

After getting dressed, Zhou Yuxuan began preparing the ingredients for the hot pot. He first cleaned the pot carefully, scrubbing it thoroughly with dish soap, then repeatedly rinsing it with hot water. Finally, he boiled a pot of water and scalded the pot inside and out to ensure it was spotless and free of any odor.

Then, he began to process the vegetables that Chen Xiaoru took out from the space, breaking them apart one by one, carefully cleaning off the dirt at the roots, and cutting several kinds of meat into thin slices.

They were neatly arranged on a plate, alternating between fat and lean, with clear textures. Several small plates were carefully prepared, filled with minced garlic, coriander and seasonings. His movements were skillful and quick, and it was obvious that he cooked often.

When Chen Xiaoru came out of the shower, she found that Zhou Yuxuan had already laid out everything on the table and even changed his clothes. She couldn't help but jokingly said, "Zhou Yuxuan, you're pretty quick!"

Zhou Yuxuan heard the voice, stopped what he was doing, walked to her side, and said with a hint of blame in his tone:

"Why don't you blow-dry your hair before going out? You'll easily catch a cold this way."

As he spoke, he took Chen Xiaoru's hand and walked into the bedroom, asking her to sit in front of the dressing table.
