Chapter 127: Shen Que, I came from a book
"Chen Que, please help me send it to the teachers."
After returning home, Meng Ci scooped two bowls of rice into a plastic bag.
He also filled half a plastic bag with the eggplants and green vegetables he had picked earlier and gave it to Shen Que, asking him to deliver it to Duan Yan and the others.
Shen Que had no objection and went out with his things.
Meng Ci quickly took out some ready-made dishes from the space.
Boiled pork slices, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, tiger skin chili peppers, dry pot potato chips, mapo tofu, a bowl of tomato and bean curd soup, and four servings of rice.
The reason why Chen Que was asked to deliver things to Duan Yan and the others was that he was afraid that if he gave them the things, Teacher Duan and the others would not want them, and then they would cause trouble by entangled with them.
It was also because Meng Ci felt tired after hunting tigers all day and didn’t want to cook.
Besides, now that he is with Shen Que, it is impossible for him to hide in the space alone when the temperature drops to minus seventy degrees Celsius and leave Shen Que to freeze to death outside.
Therefore, Meng Ci planned to slowly take out some things and let Shen Que prepare first.
Or find a time to confess directly.
Seeing that Chen Que had not returned yet, Meng Ci took out three boxes of rice, two fishes, and a portion of potatoes and beef brisket, poured them into Eggplant's food bowl, mixed them for Eggplant, and let it eat first.
Soon, Shen Que opened the door and came back, but he was holding a plastic bag in his hand.
"What is this?" Meng Ci asked.
Shen Que handed the plastic bag to Meng Ci and explained, “These are dumplings made by Teacher Duan and his friends. They said they are stuffed with green vegetables and wild boar.”
Originally, Chen Que wanted to just deliver the things and leave, but Yun Jingcen was too enthusiastic and stuffed the things directly into his arms.
Shen Que had no choice but to take the things.
At the trading point now, some people are selling wild boar meat, but two kilograms of grain can only be exchanged for one kilogram of pork.
Moreover, pork is firm and only a small piece can be exchanged, so many people feel that it is not cost-effective.
Ordinary people have trouble getting enough food and clothing, so how can they think of eating meat?
When Meng Ci heard that it was filled with wild boar, his eyes lit up.
"I haven't eaten wild boar yet, I don't know if it tastes good."
If Meng Ci had known that Yun Jingcen and the others would give dumplings, he would not have taken out the rice.
However, the things had already been taken out, and Meng Ci had no intention of putting them back, so he placed the dumplings on the balcony.
"Chen Que, come and eat." Meng Ci moved a stool and called Chen Que.
"Okay." Shen Que saw the food on the table and didn't ask any more questions. He picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
Seeing that Chen Que was not curious about how the food on the table suddenly appeared, Meng Ci bit his chopsticks and asked directly.
“Chen Que, aren’t you curious about why I can make five dishes and a soup so quickly?”
Shen Que's hand did not stop picking up the food, his eyes stared at Shen Que steadily, and he said seriously: "What's there to be curious about."
"In this end times, it's good to have something to eat."
This was also the truest thought in Shen Que's heart, and Meng Ci was harmless to him, so why was he curious about these things?
Meng Ci was relieved when he saw that there was indeed no greed or other dangerous aura in Shen Que's eyes.
Then I felt very happy, thinking that I had a good taste in men.
After dinner, Meng Ci collapsed on the sofa, stuffing grapes into his mouth.
Wait until Chen Que washes the dishes and sits beside him.
Meng Ci didn't give him a chance to speak. He sat up straight, then took Chen Que's hand and looked at him sincerely.
"Shen Que, I want to tell you something."
"In fact, I am not the Meng Ci of this world, or rather, my soul does not belong to this world."
Shen Que was puzzled when he heard this.
Once you start talking about this kind of thing, it will be much easier to continue talking about it.
So Meng Ci sat cross-legged on the sofa, put the basin of grapes on his legs, put a grape in his mouth, and then continued talking.
Shen Que brought over an empty plate to make it easier for Meng Ci to spit out the seeds.
"I actually came from a book."
"Before I entered the book, I worked in a small company."
Speaking of this, Meng Ci's eyes suddenly lit up.
“And I had already passed my 24th birthday at that time, come to think of it.” Meng Ci looked at Shen Que with an excited look on his face.
"Chen Que, you have to call me brother."
Shen Que fed the grapes that were originally intended to be fed to Meng Ci into his own mouth instead.
"You wish. You've never called me brother before."
"Besides, you are so small, are you worthy of being called my brother?"
"Hmph." Meng Ci snorted twice in dissatisfaction, complaining in his heart that Shen Que was indeed so childish just because he was young.
As an older brother, Meng Ci said he could forgive him.
Meng Ci then went on to talk about how he was transported into this novel because he complained about the plot.
"So do you want to go back?" Shen Que suddenly asked.
Shen Que couldn't help but clench his right hand, which was placed on the sofa, and his questioning voice was a little nervous.
What should he do if Meng Ci suddenly comes back?
Meng Ci leaned on the sofa, also lost in confusion.
When he first came here, the only thought in Meng Ci's mind was how to survive in the apocalypse.
The day is filled with various things and I don’t have time to think about going back.
But at night, when lying on the soft bed, Meng Ci felt waves of loneliness and fear.
Although Meng Ci was an orphan before he traveled through the book, after studying and working for a few years, he still had a few good friends.
But when he came here, the only memories Meng Ci had about this world were the miserable way he was bullied in the books and the faces of a few important people.
Li Shanyang, Zhang Lu, Li Xiaoya, and Liu Jie wanted revenge because they bullied Meng Ci in the book.
Liang Xiu, because he has always helped him.
As for the faces of other people, Meng Ci didn't remember them.
Just like Zhao Jingyu whom I met before.
The Meng family and the Zhao family are both the richest families in City M, and they often socialize with each other at various gatherings.
When Meng Ci saw Zhao Jingyu's name, only a few scenes of them attending the banquet flashed through his mind, but Meng Ci still couldn't remember Zhao Jingyu's face clearly.
The last time they met, Meng Ci was wrapped up tightly, so Zhao Jingyu didn't recognize him.
What if Zhao Jingyu recognizes him when they meet next time, and he doesn’t react and arouses suspicion?
So after coming here, Meng Ci felt very insecure.
Moreover, in this world, various natural disasters will occur, and zombies will surround the city. Meng Ci naturally does not want to stay here.
So Meng Ci nodded honestly, "Of course I want to go back."
When Shen Que heard this, he was stunned and his mind went blank.
Meng Ci wants to go back. What should he do after he returns?
“However.” Meng Ci changed the subject and looked at Shen Que.
"I haven't thought about it since I met you."
Shen Que was shocked by Meng Ci's words and sat up straight.
"You, you said you don't plan to go back?" Shen Que asked stutteringly.
Meng Ci nodded, "Yes."
"Since I'm with you, I certainly can't abandon you."
Meng Ci was still eating grapes when Chen Que suddenly rushed over and hugged him.
The basin on his legs fell over, and the grapes rolled into a round ball.
When Eggplant saw the food, he ran over happily and ate several of them.
The flesh is plump and the juice is sweet, and eggplant is so delicious that you can’t get enough of it.
