Chapter 58 Sweet Feeding
Fu Xingchen grabbed Shao Leyan who was about to escape and asked with concern, "Where are you going?"
Shao Leyan turned his head away and stared at the empty laboratory behind the transparent glass, his tone so cold as if he was talking to himself.
"I'm hungry, I want to eat."
Fu Xingchen: "Then I'll go with you."
Shao Leyan sighed: "Whatever you want."
"let's go."
Fu Xingyan watched the two of them leave one after the other, and immediately called Lin Ying's communicator.
After waiting for several seconds, Lin Ying finally answered the phone, her tone extremely impatient.
"What's up?"
"We are already halfway to success."
Dining room.
Shao Leyan didn't even say what he wanted to eat, but the square dining table was already filled with the best food that could be found in this world.
I don’t know if people who see this might think that the end of the world is just a collective dream.
Fu Xingchen peeled a large shrimp and placed it on Shao Leyan's plate. Seeing that she lowered her head slightly and didn't move her chopsticks, he couldn't help but be curious: "Aren't you hungry? Why don't you eat?"
Shao Leyan didn't answer, picked up the shrimp and put it in his mouth
When you chew it, the shrimp meat tastes delicious and has a tender texture.
"Is it tasty?"
Shao Leyan nodded.
"I noticed you didn't really like beef or chicken, so I thought you might like seafood, so I had someone raise some. It seems the results are pretty good."
Shao Leyan was shocked. He thought that these were specially caught by his subordinates at great risk, but it turned out that they were raised by him personally.
She had visited this place when she first arrived in the underground city. Although there were large tracts of farmland and livestock farms for livelihood, there were even artificial lakes.
But the water inside was so clear that not even a small fish could be seen.
How did this farm, built specifically to satisfy the appetite, appear out of nowhere?
"Artificial breeding? It's right here, how come I don't know about it?"
Fu Xingchen explained with a smile: "I sent people to build a new one after you came. This is the first batch of fish and shrimps raised. Judging by your reaction, do they taste good?"
Shao Leyan suddenly realized, a warm feeling welled up in his heart, and his expression softened, "Mm, it's delicious."
Fu Xingchen was so happy that he peeled the shrimps even faster.
"It's rare that you have a good appetite, so eat more."
Shao Leyan couldn't stop using her chopsticks, but Fu Xingchen peeled the fruits for her for a long time and didn't eat any himself, which made her feel a little guilty.
"Why don't you eat?"
"This is for you. I'll eat it after you're full."
After Shao Leyan finished eating the shrimps, he immediately put down his chopsticks and pushed his plate with several shrimps in front of Fu Xingchen.
"I'm full, you eat."
Fu Xingchen's pupils trembled in shock. "You're full after just six? You haven't even touched the braised fish or hairy crabs yet?"
"I just need a few chopsticks. I can't finish all this. Call me brother, Xingyan..."
Shao Leyan suddenly closed his mouth, took a deep breath, and then continued: "And Lin Ying and the others, come and eat together, don't waste it."
Fu Xingchen became even more anxious. "These are all for you. There is no place for them."
Seeing that Shao Leyan was about to refute, Fu Xingchen directly stuffed the crab roe the size of a quail egg into her mouth.
"Don't worry about me. I'm not a one or two-year-old child. I won't starve myself. Just enjoy your husband's service and delicious food without worrying about anything."
This meal was the best meal Shao Leyan had ever had since coming to the apocalypse. Both the ingredients and the taste were no worse than those in her original world.
Although she could guess that Fu Xingchen had the intention of deliberately trying to please her, wasn't she choosing to get close to Fu Xingchen just to enjoy these comfortable days?
It would be troublesome if Fu Xingchen turned a blind eye to her temper and quarrels.
After dinner, Fu Xingchen continued to work, while Shao Leyan sat on the sofa opposite the desk, drinking tea and eating snacks, with a novel from this world spread on his legs.
The book tells the story of a once-famous film queen who is deeply involved in the love game of two wealthy brothers. In the end, all three of them died at a young age.
She couldn't understand why Fu Xingchen, who was like an old cadre, would find such a meaningless book for her to pass the time?
Is he hinting something to her?
Shao Leyan recalled her interactions with Fu Xingyan since they met. She believed that she had a clear conscience, and she would definitely not be as passive as the heroine in the book. After all, she had died once.
Love, a luxury item that cannot be seen or touched, is not even as important to her as the sumptuous seafood dinner she just had.
Shao Leyan closed the novel and was about to get a teacup when his attention was drawn to the sound of a hurried knock on the door.
Fu Xingchen: "Come in."
The door was opened and Fu Xingyan walked in with a serious expression. She glanced at Shao Leyan and nodded to her, then walked to Fu Xingchen's desk without stopping.
"Another dark-type mutant has appeared in the Red Flame Zone."
Fu Xingchen rubbed his temples tiredly, and his usually steady voice was unusually filled with a hint of irritation.
"Why has he been so active recently? Have you found out what he did in the Red Flame District?"
Fu Xingyan shook his head. "His whereabouts are too mysterious. Our people can't locate him."
Fu Xingchen said helplessly: "It seems I have to go again."
"Should we contact Central City? With Mu Jinsheng's help, we will definitely be able to catch him this time."
"Mu Jinsheng's current level is not high enough. If we push him to the front now, do you think that dark-type psychic will let him go?"
Fu Xingyan thought about it carefully and suggested contacting him again.
"Then let Lu Chuchen take action. After all, they in Central City can't just sit there and watch. They should want to capture the dark ability user more than we do."
"Their minds are now focused on Shi Huai's zombie city. As long as Mu Jinsheng doesn't leave the central city, the dark ability people will not pose much of a threat to them."
"Then it's just you and I."
Fu Xingchen said with a straight face, "What are you talking about? The dungeon still needs you to take charge."
Fu Xingyan shook his head in disapproval. "The Red Flame Zone is still too dangerous. If you don't bring strong helpers with you, even if you are powerful, you may not be able to escape unscathed."
Fu Xingchen stood up with a domineering smile on his face, showing that he was determined to win.
"Don't worry," he walked over to Fu Xingyan and patted his shoulder. "I just got married and haven't had enough of my married life yet. How could I bear to die at such a young age?"
After Fu Xingchen finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Shao Leyan's reaction.
Shao Leyan was sitting on the sofa listening to their conversation attentively. Seeing Fu Xingchen's tired and helpless expression when he heard about the dark-type mutant, she could guess that the matter was definitely not simple.
Although she didn't know the details, the mission sounded very dangerous. If Fu Xingchen really wanted to go, could she still regard him as a towering tree to climb and seek shelter in doomsday?
Fu Xingchen's gaze interrupted Shao Leyan's wandering thoughts, and she cheered up and smiled sweetly at Fu Xingchen.
