Liu Cheng took the dagger and cut off a large piece of pork. He felt a sharp pain in his flesh, but looking at the two fist-sized chunks of meat, he couldn't help but lick his lips.
The people nearby were quite observant; they somehow found a pot and some seasonings, and someone else brought over a large bucket of water. The group gathered around the stove, warming themselves by the fire while watching the meat cook in the pot.
Slowly, the aroma of meat wafted from the pot. Several people couldn't wait to dip their fingers into the boiling water and lick them, looking like they wanted more.
Liu Cheng watched as the flames scorched the bottom of the pot, and slowly the steaming water, carrying the aroma of meat, filled the entire room. Even the two mechanics standing outside the door couldn't help but lick their lips.
"It smells so good! It's been so long since I've had pork. I don't even know what pork tastes like anymore. Don't finish it all, leave us at least some scraps!"
Brother Qing laughed and scolded, "Eat, eat, eat! Don't worry, you'll all get plenty to eat. Just stand guard properly, or none of us will get to eat anymore!"
Liu Cheng quickly stopped Qing Ge: "What are you babbling about at a time like this? The meat is almost ready, go find some bowls! Everyone get a bowl and eat quickly before getting back to work. Don't let anyone find out. I'll go hide the meat first, so that no one discovers our good stuff!"
"Yes, yes, we can't let anyone find out about this meat! We need to find a place to hide it quickly!"
Watching Liu Cheng's thin body lead the two hundred-pound pork with such ease, Lu Yuan wondered if it was the pork that gave him strength or if he looked thin but was actually all muscle.
Soon, more than a dozen bowls were placed on the table, each containing a bowl of meat soup and a few slices of meat. Several people stepped forward and each took their own bowl, complaining about how little meat they had or how much meat others had. Seeing this, Liu Cheng couldn't help but laugh and scold, "If you're not going to eat, get out!"
Then Liu Cheng brought over a slightly chipped bowl and handed it to Lu Yuan: "Lu Yuan, we are all able to eat meat thanks to you. Please eat this bowl of meat too. I'm really sorry that it's your first time here, but I have to use your food to treat you!"
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Liu, I owe all of this to your help. Without you, I wouldn't know how to get close to those things. So you guys eat, I won't eat!"
Lu Yuan looked at the large piece of meat in the bowl and immediately pushed it toward Liu Cheng.
He's not short of meat right now. Every day he takes out some jerky from his dimensional space. After all, the food in the base is really bad, but he can't not eat. If people find out that he doesn't eat chicken jerky, they'll definitely think he has other good stuff. So he basically treats the jerky as a snack and isn't very interested in the meat in his bowl.
However, Qing Ge, who was standing to the side, smacked his lips and said, "Alright, Lu Yuan, Liu Cheng is treating you like one of his own, hurry up and eat!"
Lu Yuan looked up at Liu Cheng, who was smiling, and knew that the other party really regarded him as one of his own. So he nodded, picked up the hot soup, and slowly ate it.
Just as everyone finished their hot soup, a small gap was opened in the ceiling, revealing a shifty-eyed figure.
"Good heavens, the guys in the machine repair shop were secretly eating meat! Damn it, I wonder where they got it from. We don't know where we have any pork left in the base. Luckily we found it. We need to hurry and tell Fifth Brother about this meat!"
The other person next to him smacked him on the head and said, "Shut up! If we're found out, neither of us is going anywhere! Did you take pictures of everything I told you to?"
The weasel-faced young man next to him covered his head and whispered, "Don't worry, Brother Long, the items have already been ordered. I guarantee that Fifth Brother will give us some food when he sees them!"
The two then slowly retreated from the rooftop, while the people chatting and laughing inside the room were unaware that this scene had already been secretly filmed.
After finishing everything, Lu Yuan prepared to pack his things. After all, Liu Cheng was going to take him to work in the airport maintenance room that night, so he had to take some of the temporary bedding and his clothes with him.
There weren't many items. After all, most of the valuable personal belongings in the base were handed over when people entered, leaving only underwear and bedding.
Not far from their machine repair shop, two shifty-looking guys jogged into a tent.
From inside the tent came the sound of a woman's moans. The two men stopped in their tracks and waited until the sounds subsided before softly asking, "Fifth Brother, are you done? We're Monkey and Little Dragon!"
After a few scattered sounds of clothes being put on inside, a deep male voice came out: "You two brats, eavesdropping outside my house again? What's the matter? Get in here and talk!"
The two men then exchanged a lewd glance and went inside. Sure enough, they saw a scantily clad woman slowly putting on her clothes, while the man in the lead was shirtless and wearing only a pair of shorts.
Inside the room, a large brazier was burning charcoal, making it warm and cozy. The man comfortably lit a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and then maliciously slapped the woman's buttocks.
"You're so annoying!" the woman said coyly, lightly patting the man's shoulder, which only provoked the man to become even more unrestrained in his lewd behavior.
