"You! Li Xin!"
"Hey! Grandpa's here. What can I do for you?"
Li Xin stood there, beaming, and defiantly made an international gesture towards Wang Peng.
After making the hand gesture, he ran to Lin Ma's side like a fawning dog, "Sister, I never expected you to be so amazing! I really didn't recognize your talent before. Are you hungry? Are you thirsty?"
I have some biscuits and bottled water here, please have some. I'm so sorry to have troubled you earlier! That guy is such an idiot.
Wang Peng gritted his teeth and tried to force a smile.
"Yes, thank you!"
"Boss! Why are you thanking her? She just stole all our zombies!"
The woman said indignantly, her eyes constantly glancing into the crowd.
"Ya Ya! Stop talking! It was really my bad luck this time. She saved me, so let's forget about it! Let's go!"
The man couldn't stand it any longer; he had completely lost face today.
"Boss! Boss!!!"
The woman followed reluctantly, not forgetting to give Jiang Qinian a flirtatious wink before leaving.
Jiang Qinian's gaze remained fixed on Lin Anran, and just then, the straight-laced Lin Yu noticed his flirtatious wink. "Is her eye sick? It keeps twitching!"
Gu Chen: "Who knows! I'd better stay away next time! This woman looks pretty scary."
The two discussed it head-to-head and finally reached a consensus.
"It's getting late! Let me take you to rest!"
Li Xin put the zombie's crystal cores into his bag and said sincerely, "I'm sorry I can't give you these crystal cores. They will be distributed after we hand them over to the base."
Lin's mother waved her hand, "This is all, you can take it!"
My darling daughters have a whole room full of space; they can't even use it all, so it would be a waste to keep it.
Li Xin was deeply moved by the other person's generosity and hugged her backpack tightly. "Thank you, sister!"
"Thank you, sister!"
Suddenly, Lin's father made a sarcastic remark and sped up with a stern face.
The group of people behind her tried hard to suppress their laughter, their sympathetic gazes falling on Lin's mother.
Unaware that he had said something wrong, Li Xin excitedly introduced the Dawn Base and its commander to everyone.
"This place was built by the base commander in a month. You may not know this, but our base commander usually seems very unserious. However, he is a really good person."
However, you probably won't see him today. He disappears all the time, and even we can't get in touch with him.
Lin Anran was filled with curiosity about this mysterious base commander.
This person seems quite extraordinary, as he can disappear so easily and yet always manage to contact them for help in the shortest possible time after extreme weather events.
Lin Yu asked curiously, "Then why doesn't the base chief care about your competition for supplies?"
"This is the rule he set. At first, the supplies were indeed distributed for free, but too many people did not know how to cherish them, so we changed it to this: distribution is based on labor. Even if people are dissatisfied, they can only be treated like quails now."
Li Xin wiped the fine sweat from his forehead. "This is it! This is the only place in the base where people can live. I'll have to ask you to squeeze in with everyone else."
He pulled back the curtain, and a strong, pungent smell of sweat hit him.
Lin Yu almost saw his great-grandmother, but luckily Gu Chen reacted quickly and dragged him out.
"Wow! Is this place even habitable?"
Lin Yu breathed in the fresh air in disbelief; the smell was so strong it felt like it was hitting his head!
"I can't take it anymore! I... Ugh!"
Lin Ma and the others were very glad that they had held their breath, otherwise they would have almost passed out from the fumes.
Li Xin frowned in distress, "This... there really is nowhere else to rest besides here. Otherwise, I'll think of another way!"
"No need! Let's go back to the car and sleep there!"
"good!"
Li Xin looked at the group of people who had left behind their retreating figures with teary eyes.
That's amazing! They actually slept in their cars just to make room for them!
"I, I'll see you off!"
A group of people arrived at the parking lot, and everyone spontaneously set up tents in the center of the square.
"Hey? Sister Ranran! You're here! We're having a barbecue, want some?"
Xie Nan held a handful of lamb skewers in his hand and had two mustaches pasted on under his nose.
Li Xin, who followed along, was dumbfounded. Everyone was living such a good life?
Is he superfluous?
Taking the fragrant skewers, Lin Anran took a bite, and all the fatigue of the day was wiped away.
"Thanks, bro!" Lin Yu ate two skewers in one bite, his eyes filled with bitterness.
"I want to eat grilled sausages, flatbread, and grilled mushrooms! Wait a minute, Brother Nan, I'll go get some more food from the car."
Lin Yu dashed back to the RV.
When the others came down, they were carrying a huge pile of food. "Chenchen! Come and help!"
Gu Chen skillfully took the items, and Lin's father and the other men quickly followed suit.
"Xiaoyu! Go to the car and get some more ice-cold beer and juice. Dinner will be served soon."
Xie Bei naturally handed the skewers in his hand to Lin's father.
"Uncle!"
"Okay! Xiao Bei, you should rest!"
Everyone was busy with their own work, but Li Xin was dumbfounded, standing there staring blankly at this heartwarming scene.
He didn't say anything offensive today, did he?
Turns out I was the clown all along, and these guys were the legendary big shots!
"Brother Xin! What are you standing there for? Come and eat!"
Li Xin pointed to himself in disbelief, his mouth watering uncontrollably. He hadn't eaten meat or vegetables in a long time.
"Huh? Me?"
"Yes! Is anyone else here?"
Lin Yu looked back in confusion, "Is nobody here? Come and eat!"
As you approach, the sizzling meat releases its oil. Lin's father flips it over with one hand, applies a special seasoning, and a tempting aroma of barbecue wafts through the air.
Li Xin swallowed hard, his saliva swirling in his mouth.
Gu Chen placed the grilled barbecue on the table. "Eat it while it's hot, there will be more later, everyone eat as much as you want!"
"Brother Peng! Did you see that? They're actually eating barbecue! Everyone here is homeless and has no food, and they're being so extravagant!"
A sharp voice came from afar, filled with jealousy.
She knew they must have come here because she hadn't been watching them from inside the disaster tent.
To her surprise, this group of people were hiding here eating barbecue—it was real meat! How long had it been since she'd smelled the aroma of meat!
Wang Peng couldn't help but swallow hard as he looked at the sizzling, oily barbecue; his eyes were glued to the tempting skewers.
"This... let's go take a look!"
Four or five people approached, but no one paid them any attention. Lin Yu was wildly gnawing on the pork tenderloin. "Mmm~ Dad! You're doing great! Your skills have improved, amazing! It's so delicious!"
Li Xin carefully put it into his mouth. The smooth, crispy, salty, and spicy flavors exploded in his mouth in an instant, and the delicious taste reached the tip of his tongue.
