Ruan Tian chuckled and showed off Snow White to Jing Zhenxu.
"How about that? Isn't it incredibly amazing?"
Jing Zhenxu nodded in agreement, "It is indeed amazing. This is the first time I have ever seen such an excellent electric tricycle."
Before the apocalypse, these electric tricycles were quite common.
But in the apocalypse, Jing Zhenxu never saw an electric tricycle like Snow White again; they were all too clean.
"There's something even more amazing!"
Ruan Tian began demonstrating to Jing Zhenxu how to cook.
This was the first time he had ever seen Ruan Tian cook in person, and he was amazed by her quick and efficient cooking skills.
He originally thought that since Ruan Tian's cooking was so delicious, the process must have been quite complicated.
But unexpectedly, she cooked in this way.
He just stood there watching, not even blinking, for a long time.
Ruan Tian smiled smugly, "This is my special ability, isn't it incredibly efficient and fast?"
“Hmm,” Jing Zhenxu replied, then couldn’t help but be surprised, “This is actually your special ability?”
In Jing Zhenxu's opinion, Ruan Tian's ability to cook food is already quite remarkable.
But little did they know that this was actually Ruan Tian's superpower!
Moreover, if Jing Zhenxu is not mistaken, Ruan Tian's superpower can still be upgraded.
A life-skill ability that can be upgraded—it's invincible!
Jing Zhenxu immediately felt even more strongly that she must not let the Jing family discover Ruan Tian's special ability!
"Ruan Tian, you must keep your special ability a secret. You absolutely cannot let anyone else know about it except me, do you hear me?"
Ruan Tian wasn't as nervous as Jing Zhenxu; on the contrary, she felt quite relieved.
Everyone makes mistakes, and she couldn't guarantee that her special ability would never be discovered.
So Ruan Tian chuckled and shook her head, "I know my special ability is very powerful, and I also know that if someone discovers it, I might face bad things, but it's okay."
Ruan Tian was also capable of protecting herself; she called Xiao Bai out so that Jing Zhenxu could see her.
"Look, this is my guard dog!"
Jing Zhenxu stared at Xiaobai, slightly stunned. This was indeed the first time he had seen Xiaobai.
Who would have thought that a dog would suddenly appear inside an electric tricycle!
Jing Zhenxu squatted down, looked at Xiaobai who had already puffed out its chest, and gently stroked its head a few times.
"That's really amazing, what is it?"
Jing Zhenxu subconsciously extended a hand in front of Xiaobai and said, "Shake hands."
Little White obediently placed its paws in Jing Zhenxu's palm.
This was the first time Xiaobai had ever liked someone this much.
As for the other targets, Xiaobai wasn't too interested in them. Apart from wagging its tail when it saw Ye Mofeng, it didn't actively try to get close to the others.
Jing Zhenxu's eyes lit up, probably because she thought Xiaobai was cute, and she said with a smile, "Lie down."
Little White obediently lay down, exposing its belly for Inoue to see.
Ruan Tian couldn't help but be surprised, "This is the first time I've seen Xiaobai so close to someone. It seems it really likes you."
"Really?" Jing Zhenxu gently rubbed Xiaobai's head, her expression tender. "I like Xiaobai very much too."
When Xiaobai heard that Jing Zhenxu also liked it, it became even more excited and pounced on Jing Zhenxu, licking his face repeatedly with its tongue.
"Xiaobai is so enthusiastic."
Jing Zhenxu's mood improved after Xiaobai's antics. His eyes softened, and he hugged Xiaobai's head, gently nuzzling it twice.
As Ruan Tian looked at the scene before her, her heart slowly softened.
Although she didn't see firsthand what kind of life Jing Zhenxu had lived before, she knew in her heart that he had never had a single day of peace after his parents passed away.
So when Ruan Tian saw him looking so relaxed, she felt happy too.
Ruan Tian stared at it for a few seconds, then stood up again, preparing to cook for Jing Zhenxu.
"You guys keep playing, I'll go make you some food."
Ruan Tian didn't keep Jing Zhenxu waiting long and quickly prepared the meal.
The small room was filled with a wonderful aroma. Ruan Tian didn't dare to cook anything too fragrant, for fear that people outside would discover it.
Looking at all the delicious food, Jing Zhenxu said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry to have troubled you to make so much."
"How could that be? What kind of relationship do we have? You don't need to thank me."
Jing Zhenxu still felt sorry for Ruan Tian, because Ruan Tian had helped him a lot since they first met.
Just saving him from the mouths of a bunch of man-eating plants was enough to make Inomoto's savior.
So Jing Zhenxu really didn't know how to thank Ruan Tian.
He was thinking when a pair of disposable chopsticks was shoved into his hand. When he looked up, he was met with Ruan Tian's smiling face.
"What are you thinking about? Hurry up and eat it while it's hot."
When Ruan Tian smiles, she looks very beautiful, with bright and sparkling eyes, making her especially likable.
A warm feeling slowly flowed through Jing Zhenxu's heart. "Okay."
He buried his head in his food and began to eat, experiencing the warmth of home for the first time.
...
The Jing family at this time.
Jingzhong had been working in the mine for so long that he was exhausted and hungry, and hadn't had a decent meal for three whole days.
He rummaged through the backpack left behind by Jing Zhenxu, looking for something good to eat.
But Jing Yunping ate all the delicious food.
What was left was either dry bread or canned food that had just expired a day or two ago.
Ishige's face instantly darkened. "What kind of things did Ishima bring back! Can you even eat these things?!"
Jing Yunping ate all the good stuff, and Jing Zhong didn't get to eat anything he wanted.
He glared at Jing Yunping and cursed, "Your father worked in the mine for so long, endured so much hardship, and now he can't even get a piece of soft bread. Do you want me to die?!"
Jing Yunping dared not speak, silently lowering his head, looking as if he did not want to communicate with Jing Zhong.
This made Ishigure even angrier!
Without any mercy, he raised his hand and slapped Jing Yunping across the face!
"Now that Jing Zhenxu is gone, the whole family's livelihood depends on me. What kind of attitude is this? If you don't give me the best food, how am I supposed to go down the mine for the next month!"
A month in the mine?!
Upon hearing this, Xu Li abruptly looked up at him, gasped, and asked in disbelief:
"Why is there a mine shaft that's been there for a month?! What on earth is going on?!"
"What do you mean, what happened? It's just what you think. It's all because you offended Wang Ping! If it weren't for you, how could I have ended up like this!"
Jing Shige was in a terrible mood. He was panting heavily, clearly upset.
He blamed all the mistakes on his wife and daughters, like a deserter.
Only an incompetent man would blame all his mistakes on his family.
Jing Zhong really didn't want to go down into the mine again, so he sneered and said directly to Jing Yunping:
"It's time for you, my son, to play a more useful role, so you'll be going down into the mine!"
