Back at the Dawn City shelter, Huang Zhao controlled Chen Run to go directly to the rest room to wait.

The spirit returned to its original body, which was lying on the bed in the room. It got up, took a bottle of iced cola from the kitchen refrigerator, and walked towards the control center.

Huang Zhao looked at Ning Chuxia, who was still working hard at the control panel, and said:

"Junior sister, that's enough. There's no need to rush to finish everything in one day."

The members who went out on missions will all be back soon.

Ning Chuxia looked at Huang Zhao, who was standing behind her, still wearing a bathrobe, as if he had been lying in the room all day.

Some people envied his superpower, being able to sense everything happening outside without leaving home.

He can see others through his special abilities, but they can't detect him...

The act of peeping evokes a strange sense of excitement in both men and women.

Ning Chuxia said sourly:

"I'd better do my best, lest the city lord think I'm not taking this seriously and kick me out."

Huang Zhao pretended not to notice the sourness in Ning Chuxia's words and said:

"Do you want to have dinner before going back?"

Upon noticing that Ning Chuxia wanted to refuse, Huang Zhao added:

"I can make an extra one for you to take back to your girlfriends."

Ning Chuxia immediately swallowed back the words of refusal she was about to say.

She had enjoyed a chef's lunch at the shelter at noon, and she hadn't gone back yet because she wanted to have dinner before leaving.

But hearing Huang Zhao's teasing made her a little angry and she didn't want to eat anymore.

When Huang Zhao suggested cooking more food to take back, he was immediately tempted.

Neither she nor Zheng Lan can cook, so they'll have to rely on exchanging ingredients and bringing them back to cook.

Not to mention that it would require a considerable amount of points, it's impossible to cook meals like those prepared by the shelter's chef.

Huang Zhao hadn't expected Ning Chuxia to have such complex emotions in such a short time, and he just waited for Ning Chuxia's reply.

Ning Chuxia pouted and said somewhat petulantly:

"Okay, then I want roast chicken, steamed fish, lobster, and dessert!"

After saying that, Ning Chuxia looked at Huang Zhao in front of her with a bit of arrogance, wanting to see him refuse in an embarrassed manner.

After all, she knew how unreasonable her request was. After all, this was the apocalypse, and getting these things wasn't something you could just do whenever you wanted.

While Ning Chuxia waited to see Huang Zhao make a fool of himself, Huang Zhao indeed smiled and said directly:

"Okay, then let's have crispy fried chicken with fermented bean curd, steamed live grouper using traditional methods, and baked Boston lobster with French cheese!"

Another serving of our Guangdong-style claypot rice and double snow papaya stewed bird's nest soup.

For dessert, I'd like some crème brûlée; I remember you loved it back in high school.

Ning Chuxia's expression turned to astonishment, thinking she had misheard.

However, Huang Zhao rattled off a string of complicated dish names with ease, and apart from the ingredients themselves, Ning Chuxia couldn't imagine what the finished dishes would look like.

He looked at Huang Zhao with some suspicion and asked:

"Senior brother, are you a hidden rich kid? Is this what you eat every day?"

She didn't even think to question where she would find these ingredients after the apocalypse to make these dishes.

'Of course it's because I've been eating these things these past few days, and I've also been listening to the AI's explanations of myself.'

These were all dishes that Chen Run had directly packed from various five-star hotels before the apocalypse.

There are tens of thousands of servings, and I haven't eaten the same thing twice in just the past few days!

I must say, the chefs at five-star hotels are so skilled, you never get tired of their food!

Huang Zhao said to Ning Chuxia in a deep voice:

"Sigh, the cheapest clothes I've ever worn in my life are my school uniforms."

The heaviest thing I've ever carried was Valentino.

The hardest thing I've ever experienced is drinking iced Americano.

Overcoming the toughest hurdle...

Listening to Huang Zhao's increasingly outrageous remarks, Ning Chuxia wanted to facepalm and quickly interrupted him:

"Stop, stop, stop!"

"I understand, I'll eat this dish if you dare serve it!"

Seeing Ning Chuxia's somewhat adorable expression, Huang Zhao laughed and turned to walk towards the kitchen in the lounge.

He manipulated Chen Run to retrieve all the dishes he had just ordered from his special ability space, and then summoned him away.

The handyman doesn't need to get in the way; some bread will do.

Chen Run: I really will thank you!

In his mental perception, the girl resting in the bedroom on the third floor was still not awake, even though it had only been a little over three hours since Huang Zhao had rescued her.

Huang Zhao wanted her to rest more, so he didn't wake her up.

A mental connection was established with Ning Chuxia, who was preparing to continue organizing the resources of Dawn City. After establishing a connection, it was said:

"Junior sister, you can come and eat now."

"So fast? Didn't you just go back to make arrangements?"

"This is called Dawn City speed! Hurry up, or we'll be doomed."

Ning Chuxia walked towards the lounge, somewhat bewildered, thinking that Huang Zhao was teasing her.

She had already completed her great adventure in the shelter after Huang Zhao left.

I have explored all the areas in the shelter that are open to visitors, and the lounge on the fourth basement level has a similar decor to the buildings on the ground floor.

It looked like a family's place of rest, and I guessed that the fourth basement level might be the city lord's residence.

Upon hearing Huang Zhao's summons, Ning Chuxia thought she would see the city lord at the restaurant.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, she found Huang Zhao alone and couldn't help but ask her about her confusion:

"Won't the city lord eat with us?"

"He doesn't eat with us, so we don't need to worry about him."

"Please sit down, don't be shy!"

Looking at the exquisite dishes laid out on the table, Ning Chuxia swallowed hard.

The two had known each other for much longer than Zheng Lan had known Ning Chuxia, so they were no longer strangers.

Ning Chuxia didn't feel too constrained and sat down next to Huang Zhao to enjoy the food on the table with him.

Unlike the first two batches of rescued survivors when the number was small, Huang Zhao hosted a banquet for everyone in front of the shelter.

The number of survivors who joined later was too large, and the five android chefs in the shelter simply couldn't keep up.

Besides, Huang Zhao no longer needs to bribe the survivors like this.

Dawn City's development has been on track, and newly joined survivors will be motivated by others, so Huang Zhao no longer needs to take this step.

After the apocalypse broke out, Ning Chuxia hardly ate a decent meal.

I eat all sorts of snacks every day. The best food I've ever had is instant noodles. I haven't had a single hot dish in almost a week.

At noon, Ning Chuxia heard the AI ​​suggest that she have lunch first.

Because it's the apocalypse, she doesn't know what kind of food is available in the shelter.

Suddenly overwhelmed by indecisiveness, I hesitated and ordered a stir-fried pork dish and hot rice, which the maid quickly brought over.

This one meal alone made Ning Chuxia feel extremely satisfied.

He was still thinking about whether he could bring some back for Zheng Lan to try, but he was a little embarrassed to say it out loud.

At this moment, he saw on the table in front of him delicious food that was not something he could eat anytime even before the apocalypse.

Ning Chuxia was so shocked that she was numb.
