People are starving.

Feeling his stomach growling again, Li Qingyu headed down to the kitchen. As he passed the husky, he kicked it again.

pig!

They're still asleep.

[Crimson: Um, I think the dog's condition is probably a side effect of overusing Beastmaster's Heart; he might need to sleep for a day or two.]

Okay, then I misunderstood you.

But can't you make it clear whether it's one or two days or just one day?

[Crimson: Uh... I don't know either.]

Did you replace your CPU?

Ignoring the now-foolish Crimson, Li Qingyu went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took out a bottle of orange soda and a box of golden fried rice.

I opened the orange soda and took a sip.

Whew, that felt great.

Next, Li Qingyu heated up the golden fried rice in the microwave.

Two minutes later, Li Qingyu brought the heated golden fried rice to the living room sofa.

He picked up the spoon, scooped up a large spoonful, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Mmm, it smells delicious.

At this moment, Qiqi, who smelled the aroma, flew down from upstairs and came to Li Qingyu's lunchbox, looking at it curiously with her little face.

"Want to try some?"

Li Qingyu scooped a small spoonful of fried rice and placed it in front of Qiqi.

Qiqi looked at the fried rice in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and then shook her head at Li Qingyu.

[Crimson: I think she's probably not yet capable of eating.]

Don't tell me what you think, tell me what I think.

Seeing that Qiqi wasn't eating, Li Qingyu continued to eat heartily, drinking orange soda as he ate.

In just a few minutes, his lunch was ready.

Li Qingyu patted his belly on the sofa, lay on his side, and looked satisfied.

I glanced at the husky, still sleeping. Well, that's fine. No dog will steal my fried rice now. In a couple of days, you can eat plain white rice instead.

After eating and drinking his fill, Li Qingyu felt that his pockets were a bit uncomfortable, so he shifted his body and reached into his pockets to rummage around.
