Chapter 40 Heading for Supplies (1)
When they got up at dawn, Antonio was already full of energy and able to move freely. Lu Weiyi went downstairs and saw him talking to Li Zhuang who was leaning against the door. Dean, who was alert, called out in a friendly manner when he saw them, "Lu, breakfast...prepare it." He stretched out his finger to indicate him and Antonio, "Together."
Dean started speaking Chinese. It seemed that the previous incident had alerted him.
Lu Weiyi nodded and glanced at the breakfast he was talking about.
There were three cups of milk, two servings of oatmeal made with yogurt on the dining table, slices of bread neatly arranged on a plate, a few pieces of ham cut into pieces and thoughtfully made into the shape of octopus legs, except that they were not grilled sausages and the legs were not turned over, and the braised chicken legs cut into slices and arranged in a pattern with the braised eggs.
Just like coaxing a child.
But in Antonio's eyes, Dean is just a child.
"Sorry, I used things here without permission," Antonio said, but he didn't feel much apology, because he knew he could afford to pay it back.
"It's okay," Lu Weiyi replied, looking at Li Zhuang, "I won't go to sweep the building."
"Well. I'm going to look for supplies today. Do you want to come with me, kids?" He glanced at the bags of food that Lu Weiyi had brought back yesterday. One of the snakeskin bags was already empty.
Dean explained in a low voice, somewhat embarrassed, "David hasn't eaten for a few days..."
Lu Weiyi nodded. The newly awakened supernatural power was not stable yet, so a large amount of food was needed to replenish it. This was not surprising to Lu Weiyi.
"I'll go with you to find food, and the two of them will stay here," Antonio said, and then explained it again to Dean in English.
"I can go with you guys," Dean said anxiously, not wanting to be separated from Antonio but knowing that they had to find food.
Antonio leaned over and kissed his forehead, then asked, "You have a fever, be obedient. Is it safe here?"
"The zombies nearby have been cleared out, no one will come," Li Zhuang replied, looking at Lu Weiyi, "You're not going?"
Before Lu Weiyi answered, Antonio took the lead to explain to him, "You saved Dean and saved my life. From now on, you and Dean just stay here, I will solve the food problem." Although Antonio knew that Lu Weiyi had gone out to find food alone once, he thought he had no choice, especially since he was only carrying a backpack at the time, and he looked thin and small, which made him look particularly pitiful. Antonio automatically assumed that he was a poor little guy with no one to rely on.
Before Lu Weiyi could speak, Dean retorted, "David, I can do it, I think..."
Antonio held Dean in his arms and said gently, "Dean, be good, I will come back safely. I swear, take the medicine and sleep well, don't let me worry."
"But……"
"You forgot this." Antonio stretched out his hand, and the fork on the table flew over and circled around Antonio. Whether it was self-defense or attack, it only took a moment.
A flash of surprise passed through Li Zhuang's eyes, and then he returned to normal in an instant.
Lu Weiyi knew this a long time ago. He reached out and took a set of knife and fork from the knife blades suspended in the air. The slight resistance was the invisible energy controlled by him, which was too weak to resist human power. He walked towards the dining table.
This action surprised Antonio. He chose to take action at this time because, firstly, he wanted to scare Li Zhuang from having any extra thoughts since he had just arrived here, and also to let Lu Weiyi see his abilities so that he would not feel that he had no strength and give Dean a hard time.
But at this time, Lu Weiyi looked as if he was used to it, which made him look like a bumpkin. Antonio felt embarrassed, but he didn't show it on his face as he collected all the tableware and continued to comfort his boyfriend.
