Chapter 27 Wake Up
The snoring in the corner of the restaurant was very loud, and you could tell that he was sleeping soundly.
Yu Min, who was suddenly given such an important task, stood up helplessly and glanced at his two "roommates", obviously preparing himself mentally.
Before he walked over, he threw the question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time to Wang Li, wanting to know her opinion.
"Do you think I should remind the boss lady to pay more attention to the two psychics sitting in the hall?"
Wang Li looked at Yu Min as if she were a fool, and after a long while she managed to utter a word, "Are you...really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Sister Yan's heart and eyes are all on Brother Qin right now, so why are you trying to butt in on her now? Do you think you're spending too much time in the restaurant?"
"Ah?" The straight man Yu Min touched his head in confusion, not understanding what Wang Li meant.
He poured a glass of water for Wang Li and handed it to her, wanting to hear her talk in detail.
Wang Li took a sip of water, her eyes sparkling with love. "Based on my years of experience following dramas and novels, there's an 80% chance they're hooked. They both have feelings for each other, but they just haven't realized it yet. Just imagine, a handsome, strong, loyal, and powerful thug versus a beautiful, sophisticated restaurant hostess. Wow, how exciting."
You know what, the number of words on both sides is quite consistent.
Yu Min looked at Wang Li speechlessly, thinking that this girl was crazy. The boss lady was not the kind of superficial person who focused on love. She was a high-quality woman with ideals and ambitions in the new era.
Besides, Brother Qin is a taciturn person. He has shared his idol and two-dimensional idol with Qin Simu more than once, but the other party responded very calmly, not like a normal man at all.
Hey, women nowadays just like to randomly ship couples.
Yu Min chose to keep his mouth shut. He knew that he couldn't win over women in this regard.
After being interrupted by Wang Li, he no longer had the intention to remind Lin Luyan to pay more attention to the Liu family father and son.
…………
As evening approaches, the sun sets and the moonlight emerges.
Normally, the restaurant would have been filled with the aroma of food by this time. But now, everyone was sitting pitifully in the restaurant hall, devouring their bread bite by bite.
Qi Xiaoxin ran out of the staff room with two bags of toast, tilted her head back, and relayed Lin Luyan's words in a baby voice:
"Sister Lin didn't want to eat, so she asked me to bring it back."
Qi Yining, who had been following Qi Xiaoxin and protecting her as she walked, added, "Sister Lin also said that everyone should be prepared to eat bread in the next few days. Everything will be decided after Brother Qin Simu wakes up."
No one complained about Lin Luyan's decision. In the end times, being able to eat such bread was already a luxury.
But... after eating the hot rice and soup, I am not particularly interested in this kind of instant baked pastries. Besides, only the food cooked by Lin Luyan in the restaurant kitchen has such magical effects.
Qi Yining sat down with his sister in his arms. Just as he was about to eat some bread, he felt a pair of burning gazes staring at him.
He turned his head uncomfortably, slightly stunned, "Brother Yu Min, why are you looking at me like that?"
After saying that, he took a big bite of the cheese bun, smeared some cream on the corner of his mouth, and smiled happily like a foodie.
Yu Min hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. Seeing Qi Yining eating with such relish, he didn't need to mention his original plan anymore.
Unlike others, Yu Min knew that there were ordinary foods here, which were stored by the proprietress before the end of the world.
He had his own thoughts about the food, but it was not appropriate for him to bring it up. Qi Yining and Qi Xiaoxin were children who spoke without restraint. They had eaten the ordinary food cooked by Lin Luyan several times, so it was normal for them to mention it to Lin Luyan.
Obviously, Yu Min's plan was going to fail. For children, desserts taste much better than meals. Cream, pudding, and caramel are the things that can stimulate their appetite the most.
The Qi brothers and sisters, with their mouths full of cream, would never ask Lin Luyan for ordinary food on behalf of Yu Min.
Yu Min gave up in disappointment and found Xu Xiaojing's team of three, asking them to go out tomorrow morning to kill zombies and earn crystal cores.
The existence of the supernatural fruit is no secret in the restaurant.
However, to purchase the supernatural fruit, two conditions must be met at the same time: one is to make many contributions to the restaurant, become a trusted member of the team, and consider the interests of the restaurant and the operator 100%; the second is to spend at least 200 points in the restaurant, and then use the remaining money to buy the supernatural fruit in full at the updated price.
After Lin Luyan announced this benefit, Yu Min's heart had already flown away. He couldn't wait to quickly collect hundreds of crystal cores in a short period of time, and then take the superpower fruit and luckily become a superpower.
But this afternoon, everyone in the restaurant was almost busy, including him, so there was no way he could find time to go outside.
Without the blessing of restaurant food at night, he was too afraid to go out easily due to his severe night blindness. Even though he was in a restless mood, he had to be patient. That's why he made an appointment with Xu Xiaojing and the others to go out together tomorrow to ensure their safety.
Previously, he had dared to go out and fight zombies alone because of the special effects of the restaurant food. Now, the bread he was eating did not have special abilities, so for safety reasons, Yu Min called on Xu Xiaojing, a fire-type psychic, and her two inseparable friends.
That night, Lin Luyan kept wiping and feeding Qin Simu and almost did not sleep all night.
In the second half of the night, the man's body was red hot, as if a stove was burning, overdrawing his life with heat.
Fortunately, Lin Luyan had witnessed the birth of Xu Xiaojing's supernatural powers before, so she didn't panic too much. However, Qin Simu's symptoms were obviously much more serious than Xu Xiaojing's.
I don't know if it's because of the supernatural fruit, or something else...
Three days later.
The man's dense eyelashes moved, and his fingers touched a soft warmth.
Before my eyes was the familiar ceiling of the staff room, the high-end walls, and the soft lighting that shone on people without being dazzling at all.
The curtains were tightly closed, leaving no gaps, so it was impossible to tell whether it was night or day.
Following the temperature, Qin Simu saw Lin Luyan sleeping on the edge of the bed, and bottles and jars scattered all over the floor.
It was obvious at a glance that the woman had taken care of him for a very long time.
A hint of warmth flashed in his eyes, which had been calm in the past. This companionship and protection was something the Qin family had never given him.
Afraid that Lin Luyan would catch a cold, Qin Simu stood up and gently put a coat on her.
"Um……"
Lin Luyan was a light sleeper and was woken by Qin Simu's movements. She vaguely felt someone moving. Opening her eyes, her eyes met the man's, her gaze filled with joy.
"You're awake. Are you feeling okay? I'll go make you some food. You should be almost fully recovered after you eat."
