Chapter 97: Eat Less
"How's the flavor? Do you like it?"
Karina forked a piece of the sample milk cake from the plate and continued to feed it to Anno.
Anuo's evaluation of every bite was: "Delicious."
Wen Ye laughed from the side, "I think Xiao Qi isn't picky about food at all."
Anno ate every single food item that was offered for tasting.
She had just drunk her milk, and Karina didn't want her to eat too much, so she picked out two dishes for her, plated them up, and led her back to her seat.
Wen Ye noticed that Anuo could barely reach the table while sitting, and she wouldn't let Karina carry her, insisting on sitting on a stool by herself. He asked the waiter for two cushions to put under her bottom.
Karina pushed the chair closer to the table so she could finally put her hands on it.
Their breakfast arrived quickly. Anno held a soft milk cake in his hand and munched on it, but his eyes were fixed on Karina and the food on the picnic plate.
Their breakfast consisted of meat porridge, sausages, eggs, and fried meat. The eggs, cut in half, were of unknown origin and were about the size of their fists.
She discovered that people in this world really love meat, probably due to genetics. They have high energy expenditure, so they need to supplement with more protein, while they consume relatively few carbohydrates.
Looking at the food on their plates, she suddenly felt that the milk cake in her hand didn't smell so good anymore.
To be honest, although she is not a picky eater, she prefers to eat meat.
Seeing Anuo's fixed gaze, Wen Ye smiled, cut a small piece, and was about to hand it to her.
Karina quickly snatched the meat from Wen Ye's hand and put it back on his plate.
Wen Ye looked helpless: "I took this fork from the lunchbox."
Karina: "You cut it into too big pieces. She can't eat too much for breakfast. She's eating small, frequent meals now, five times a day. If she eats too much, she won't be able to eat the next meal."
After saying that, she cut a smaller piece and held it to Anno's lips.
Anno only had six teeth, so she chewed it a couple of times and swallowed it. After finishing it, she was even more hungry.
The food prepared for her at home is rather bland, with little salt and oil. Although it tastes good, it lacks the flavor of food served outside.
To prevent Anno from getting hungry, Karina quickly ate the food on her plate. Just as she was picking up her bowl of meat porridge to drink, Anno reached out and grabbed her hand, looking up at her with her big, round eyes.
When Karina saw Anno's expression and actions, she felt as if she had been shot in the heart.
This is so cute!
She didn't show it on her face, but her heart was racing because Anuo was so cute.
She took a slow breath and put the bowl down.
"Want some?"
Anuo nodded: "Second sister, just one bite, just one bite."
Karina was dealt another blow by Karina's obedient appearance.
When she was at home, those little brats would even gnaw on plates when they were hungry. If they saw food in their bowls and didn't get any, they would throw a tantrum, making her raise her hand and slap them twice. They would never sit so obediently on the stool, looking at her longingly.
The other cubs are fed in a similar way at Anno's age, with small, frequent meals, and they get hungry more easily than the Fire Seed cubs.
They might get hungry again within half an hour of finishing their meal, usually not even half an hour, because they don't feel full from that meal and have a very weak feeling of satiety.
Especially the young beasts, who are still in the metamorphosis stage, spend most of their day in beast form, and only become stable when they are seven or eight years old.
To prevent them from gnawing on the furniture when they got hungry, all the furniture in their house was replaced with ceramic or iron furniture. The old wooden tables and chairs were chewed up to pieces, especially by Tao Tao Le, who chewed up the glass tabletops to pieces.
When Luo Jin and Tang Ting were chosen to adopt her through a lottery, they joked that they would have to move houses before Tao Tao Le was even out of her cub stage.
According to incomplete statistics, her breed of dog currently has one of the most furniture-chewing genes.
Looking into Anno's eyes, Karina, who had just told Anno not to eat too much, now couldn't bear it anymore.
She took a small bowl from the lunchbox on the table, poured some meat porridge into it, chopped up some sausage and egg, put a piece in the bowl, and handed it to her with a spoon.
"Then you can't eat this."
Karina took the milk cake from her plate and ate it as quickly as possible.
Anuo, having meat to eat, didn't care about anything else and happily began to eat.
By the time she finished her bowl, Karina and Wenye had already devoured all the food in front of them.
Karina pulled out a napkin and wiped her mouth. "Are you full?"
As he spoke, he touched her stomach. Hmm, it felt okay. He didn't feed her too much.
Wen Ye watched her carefully taking care of An Nuo, his eyes filled with a gentle smile, "I didn't know you liked cubs so much."
Karina: "I don't hate cubs, I only like Seven."
Wen Ye raised an eyebrow: "So it seems you don't like your younger siblings? I think they're quite cute, especially Xiao Tao Tao."
Hearing him say that Tao Tao Le was cute, Karina asked, "Then how many days will you take care of Tao Tao Le?"
To prevent her from causing trouble at home every day.
Wen Ye: "Sure, no problem. I'm pretty good at taking care of cubs. I can come to your house every day to take care of them for you. Anyway, I don't live far away. And after summer vacation, you'll be going to school on Saide Star. I'm on Beixing. Don't you have three younger siblings on Beixing? I can take care of them however you want."
Anuo glanced at Wen Ye a couple more times after hearing his words. Was he very familiar with his second sister?
They were so close that they could help each other take care of the kids, but she still thought they were just classmates.
In the past, children with parents in the base would not be entrusted to others unless they were close relatives or sworn brothers.
"As long as you can manage Tao Tao Le, that's fine."
Karina saw that Anno had almost finished eating, so she picked her up and carried her outside.
Wen Ye got up and followed behind her, then waved goodbye to the other teammates.
Anno heard his teammates say from behind, "Captain, so you took a girl out on a date."
"No wonder they let us out for a walk today and even treated us to breakfast."
A teammate chuckled and came over, "Captain, why don't we take care of the little cubs? We won't bother you guys."
"Go on, eat your fill and go do whatever you're supposed to do. Don't hang around in front of me, or I'll give you extra training."
Upon hearing this, the teammates had no choice but to quickly slip away, knowing that their captain was true to his word and would make them do extra training.
Anuo realized that Wen Ye liked her second sister.
Although she had never been in love with anyone and was very resistant to strange men for some unpleasant reasons, she had also witnessed genuine feelings between men and women, which were especially precious in the apocalypse.
She clearly distinguishes between right and wrong.
She went to look at Karina, but Karina just looked at her, as if she hadn't taken her teammates' words to heart.
She thought that it might not be easy to win over her second sister.
She doesn't look like the type to like anyone.
