Xuan Tu's murderous aura suddenly froze. His dark and bloodthirsty emotions, like a balloon, were burst by Xiao Ming's question.
He flicked Xiaoming's forehead lightly, "Whatever."
Xin Sui secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
I gave myself a big thumbs up for buying ingredients and cooking during the day because I was craving something sweet.
In the apocalypse, there is actually no shortage of food; otherwise, where would those nutritional pastes come from?
The Li family owned a nutritional paste processing plant, so she went there directly and bought a bunch of mutated ingredients.
Mutant wheat, bird eggs, and wild onions are all edible.
If it weren't for the fact that people couldn't even afford nutritional paste, no one would usually touch them.
A tube of cheaper nutritional paste can be bought with just a few crystals, so why bother spending time and effort finding ingredients and cooking them?
It would be better to spend that time cultivating and improving one's strength.
But after eating the nutritional paste for a few days, Xin Sui felt like his mouth was completely bland.
In my past life, as an actress, I had to suppress my appetite in order to maintain my figure and beauty for better roles.
She'll never have to worry about being an idol again, and she'll have to torture her mouth and stomach?
She wouldn't do that.
After buying the ingredients, she made several fragrant pancakes and even made extra to save for dinner.
Once he started cultivating, he lost track of time until he was woken up by the system's mission announcement.
She hasn't had dinner yet.
Unfortunately, now it's only Xiaoming who benefits.
"Mmm! Delicious!"
Xiao Ming held a pancake that was bigger than everyone else's and buried his head in it, eating it heartily.
Small mouth, big stomach.
The pancake was gone in no time.
At that moment, he finally remembered his master.
"Xiao Guang, this pancake is delicious. Here, I'll share half with you."
He seemingly generously cut the remaining small piece of biscuit in half, then broke it back in half as he handed it out.
Therefore, Xuantu only received half of half of what he had received, which was about the size of a thumb.
Knowing Xiaoming's possessive nature when it comes to food, he didn't mind the small amount and put the little piece of cake into his mouth, chewing it slowly.
The pancakes were cold, but they were still soft yet chewy, savory and smooth, with an endless flavor.
He had tasted the bird eggs that Li Xueli had baked before, and he thought his sense of taste had returned, so he specially ate a tube of nutritional paste, wanting to experience it again.
As a result, the nutritional paste still had no taste.
Not just nutritional pastes, but other things as well.
This made him wonder if the taste he had experienced before was an illusion.
Now, the food that Li Xueli made, called "pancake," has once again awakened his sense of taste.
Xuan Tu gave "Li Xueli" a deep look.
This woman is shrouded in mystery.
But there's no rush. After he recovers in a few days and reads her memories, he'll know whether she's a human or a ghost.
Xin Sui was terrified by Xuan Tu's gaze; even his thick fur coat couldn't keep out the chill.
"System, what does that look he gave me mean? Is he thinking of killing me again because he remembered me forcing him to eat a baked egg?"
"Why did you have to assign me a task that I had to cook for him? He can't even taste the flavor."
"He chewed that tiny piece of bread so many times, he probably mistook it for me, and every chew was filled with gnashing hatred."
[This system did not detect any emotional fluctuations in the main villain.]
So, the "gritting hatred" and such was just her imagination?
"You've finished eating, do you have any more pancakes?" At that moment, Xiaoming flew to Xin Sui's side.
If not, then I'll kill you.
Xin Sui read the meaning in his bright, sparkling eyes and quickly took out another pancake from her ring.
Thankfully, she made a little extra beforehand, otherwise she would have been killed for not being able to produce any more cakes.
Xiao Ming sat on Xuan Tu's shoulders, happily munching on a pancake, his little feet dangling back and forth.
Xin Sui looked on with longing, really wanting to touch his little feet.
But she didn't dare in front of Xuan Tu.
Xin Sui followed Xuan Tu all the way to a ruin in the north of the city.
Thanks to the bird egg and scallion pancake, she successfully escaped death, and Xuan Tu did not object to her following.
Xiaoming said he hadn't had enough to eat and wanted her to continue making him delicious food.
But what is Xuan Tu doing here?
Under her questioning gaze, Xuan Tu took out something that looked like a doorknob, sent it into the air in front of him, and a door appeared out of thin air.
The doorknob stuck to the door like a magnet.
He turned the handle, opened the door, and went inside.
Xiao Ming waved to her, "Come in quickly, don't let anyone see you."
Behind the door lies a hidden world.
The view that came into view was a spacious courtyard, warm and bright, with a mutated pea plant growing there.
The main vine was as thick as a water bucket, standing against the wall like a tree.
Dense vines climbed and covered the wall, lush and verdant, like a green curtain.
It was covered with colorful flowers—red, white, yellow, pink, purple…
The pea pods that have formed are heavy, hanging from the branches like eggplants.
Some were stretched open, revealing peas as big as grapes inside.
They are emerald green and round, like large pieces of jade.
With each breath, a refreshing fragrance lingers around the nose.
This is like another world.
Xin Sui couldn't help but think of "Howl's Moving Castle".
This courtyard is probably Xuantu's "moving castle".
He must have arranged to stay here beforehand, just so he would have a place to settle down.
