Chapter 10 Rye Bread, Even Dogs Won't Eat It



All in all, the typhoon lasted for 12 days.

The girls usually like to hoard things, so they can barely manage. But the boys don't usually hoard snacks, and they've run out of food in their dorms, so there are already a few people braving the rain outside.

They say they're moving forward, but faced with the immense wind and rain, they're practically unable to move an inch.

After witnessing a 180cm tall boy in a basketball uniform being blown away, Cheng Zhi frowned.

"It feels like the wind is over level 12. I hope the windows in our dorm will break?" Chen Siyu looked at the glass door with some concern.

Xiao Feiran couldn't give a definite answer either. The glass installed at the school was of good quality, and they had also put up cross patterns on the doors. In theory, it shouldn't break unless it was hit by a hard object. However, they couldn't rule out the possibility that the typhoon was strong enough to shatter the glass.

Cheng Zhi turned her gaze to the window. "We've done everything we can, so don't worry too much."

At 12 o'clock, Zheng Wan cooked noodles in her room and was about to call everyone to come eat when there was a knock on the dormitory door.

Zheng Wan quickly closed the locker and returned to her seat. Huang Yiyi, who was closest to the door, got up and looked through the peephole, seeing Liu Min and Chen Cuixi from the next dormitory.

The door had barely opened a crack when the two of them slipped into room 806 like eels, and she closed the door behind them.

Huang Yiyi was a little surprised and was about to speak when Liu Min spoke first, "Yiyi, do you have any food? We've run out of food in our dorm. We were thinking of borrowing some from you, but not really. We'll transfer the money to you once we have internet."

Huang Yiyi smiled and said, "This typhoon has been blowing for more than ten days. If you're out of food, I'm definitely out of food too. We're all in the same boat."

That's right. Liu Min was speechless for a moment.

Then Chen Cuiqian, who had red hair, spoke up from behind her, "We all live next door, and your dorm usually gets the most deliveries. You also love to hoard things, buying boxes and boxes of bread and potato chips. Who would believe you don't have anything to eat? You just don't want to share!"

"No, what's wrong with you? We're all classmates, and we've already helped you as much as we can. Didn't we give you that bag of bread a couple of days ago? We need to eat too, don't push your luck." Zheng Wan got anxious and stood up abruptly.

Chen Cuixi snorted coldly, "Rye bread, even a dog would shake its head at it."

Every word this person said was so annoying. Xiao Feiran rolled her eyes dramatically. "Just tell me if you've eaten or not?"

Chen Cuixi was stunned. With no other food available, she naturally ate the rye bread, which was like digging a hole for herself.

At that moment, Chen Cuixi's face turned as red as her hair. With her face flushed, she couldn't think straight. "You clearly have surplus food, why can't you give me some!"

Like a three-year-old throwing a tantrum, Cheng Zhi was speechless. She raised her voice an octave in anger, "I'm your mother! I have to give you everything and listen to everything you say. Giving you a bag of bread is already more than enough. Don't push your luck!"

Chen Cuixi was so angry that she was panting heavily. Liu Min's face was also not good. She pulled Chen Cuixi and walked out.

Chen Cuixi tossed her red hair, shouting, "A bunch of cold-blooded monsters! If you don't give us food, you won't have a good time!" Then she slammed the door and left.

Cheng Zhi and the other four had mixed feelings. In their previous lives, they had no savings and had to borrow from all over the place, so they had not experienced what had just happened.

Now that it's happened, my heart is cold. Cheng Zhi's eyes were somewhat vacant, and she kept staring at the door. "So, you can abandon three years of friendship just because you're starving for three days?"

Xiao Feiran plopped down in a chair and sighed deeply. "They probably haven't eaten or drunk much water in three days. If it were me, seeing others with food but refusing to share, I would also feel resentful."

Yes, in their past lives, they borrowed food everywhere and encountered countless rejections. They saw others who clearly had many small bread rolls but were unwilling to give them one, and they secretly cursed them as stingy.

“We had no choice. People are selfish. When they can’t even take care of themselves, they don’t care about the lives of others.” Chen Siyu’s face was firm as she turned to look at everyone. “Do you remember in our past life, when the three of us were out looking for supplies, that woman with the baby? We helped her more than once. What did she do? She took all our food while we were asleep and left us with her sick child.”

Cheng Zhi could never forget that the five bottles of purified water and half a box of small bread rolls were something the three of them had painstakingly gathered. The woman was emaciated at the time, and although she had just given birth, she had no milk at all. The baby in her arms was also starving and didn't even have the strength to cry.

The three men took pity on the mother and child and took them in. However, after only two days, the woman stole something and ran away, leaving the child with them.

The baby was born in the apocalypse and without medical care, the umbilical cord quickly became inflamed, and the baby developed a persistent high fever. The women, unfamiliar with childcare, frantically searched for sterilization supplies and anti-inflammatory drugs. As a result, the baby died overnight.

Huang Yiyi walked over and put her arm around Chen Siyu's shoulder, saying comfortingly, "This whole thing isn't your fault. Learn from this experience, and we'll be more careful this time. We'll never be fooled again."

Zheng Wan, leaning against the wardrobe door, nodded repeatedly, encouraging the three who were feeling a bit down, "In novels, rebirth + space, that's definitely the protagonist, so in other words, we 806 are the protagonists, and this time we will definitely have the last laugh!"

The two's comforting words and jokes dispelled the gloom in room 806, and the five of them started chatting and laughing again. Cheng Zhi, sitting in her seat drinking water, kept staring at the wardrobe opposite her, feeling like she'd forgotten something. "Friends," she said, "is there something we haven't done yet?"

Xiao Feiran's big eyes darted around, clearly not remembering anything. "The vegetables have been watered, the chickens have been fed, haven't we finished all the work?"

The five of them racked their brains for five minutes but couldn't remember that they hadn't eaten yet. Finally, Zheng Wan remembered and slapped her thigh. "Oh right, I cooked noodles but haven't eaten them yet. Now the soup noodles have become dry noodles."

Huang Yiyi stuck her chopsticks in and picked up the whole thing. "This thing is so hard to break apart, it's like a pancake, it's really solid."

Cheng Zhi imitated Huang Yiyi, picking it up with chopsticks and taking a bite. It was as if she had opened the door to a new world. "To be honest, it's quite convenient to eat like this. It's not too hot and it won't slip. Wow, not bad!"

"..." Zheng Wan was speechless. Stop defiling noodles.

When Cheng Zhi heard that the noodles were coming to find her, her eyes lit up. "Wow, supplies delivered to my door, how thoughtful!"
